Big cities were supposed to be fun, but Xellos only found this one to be boring. It had plenty of potential to be a great city, but the lack of people living here is what killed any enjoyment. Then again, what could be exciting about a place where all life had been killed? There weren't even any Mazoku to tease. A Xellos without anyone to tease was a sad Xellos, but he had to do his job and scout out the surrounding area, and get info on any life he found. 

The beautiful statue in the distant did tell Xellos about the people who once lived here. They had no idea what putting something next to the sea could do it. Waste of a material to do that, as it would only get eroded over the years. It also told him that they wore really weird clothing, and their crowns were terribly designed. 

Bad crowns and weird clothing probably didn't lead to their deaths.

Probably.

Oh well, at least the buildings around him were exciting. They were much taller than most castles he had seen, and they looked even sturdier than them. It would be a real shame if something happened to i-

God damn it.

Xellos watched as the buildings in front of him were torn down, and used to create another structure. The structure itself was actually pretty impressive, not that it could compare to his master's previous castle. He had to get a good look inside of it, as some kind of life had to make it. Maybe there would be something for him to play around with. 

He also needed to see if the inside was as impressive as the outside. It would be a real letdown if it wasn't.

Xellos took the long way, and flew across the building. It appeared to be really well build, something build for a king, so the inhabitant of it must be some kind of royalty. Royals were usually boring to hang around with, but Amelia was fun to talk with, so hopefully they would at least be close to her. Well, they would be perfect as long as they didn't speak about justice, or were slightly competent. Sadly, when he got to the other side of the building, there were big metal doors blocking his way in. 

He took the long way for nothing.

Xellos just let out a sigh and teleported across the door. He shouldn't have bothered trying the long way when he could just do this.

"Hello everyone~! I was in the neighborhood and I happened to see this building. I thought it would be rude if I didn't pop in and say hi. " 

Perfectly executed Xellos. 

Oh, where was Zelas Metallium? She was in a bar, trying to find whatever bottles of wine she could. No need to actually go out and do things when Xellos can do it for you.
