Chapter 44 - Chapter 44. What’s Up With The Transition?

Vas Allen stood in front of the eerie demon as his body prepared itself for the upcoming battle.

The eerie demon cut the thick air, Vas Allen could feel the gushing wind coming over to his side, he ducks the eerie demon attack.

*Slice!* With a simply slash, the eerie cut the fleshy wall in half, tiny hands came out and hold onto each other, like a tentacle, it merges back with one another.

"Impressive, you manage to dodge that." The eerie demon giggles to itself, it threw out countless of slashes.

Vas Allen ran around dodging the slash, he ducks, jumps, and sometime counter the attack with his own.

"Your attacks is child play, it's easy to dodge!" Vas Allen say as he run around, he jumps onto a platform of flesh that have been cut off.

"If it so easy, why not attack me then?" The eerie demon continues to throw out his attack, the slash the ground below him, propelling himself up.

"Sure, why not." Vas Allen cast a enhanced spell on his foot, wind magic to be exact. He pushed his entire weight down on his foot, manipulating the air, he airborne himself to the eerie demon.

The eerie demon couldn't see how fast Vas Allen was flying toward it before it was too late, he has managed to grab its horns.

Using the weight of his body, Vas Allen pushed the demon down to the ground, with flicks of his finger, he shot out countless spells toward the demon backs.

"Argh!!!" The eerie demon screams out. Vas Allen kicks the demon on his backs. "Where are we?" He asks.

The eerie demon at first didn't respond, it was just laughing to itself, it was until Vas Allen kicked him in the side of the horns. The eerie could feel the pain ringing in it ears.

"Alright, stop!!!" It yell out, "This place is known as paradise!" It says with a frightening smile.

"Paradise, huh?" Vas Allen put his hand under his chin. "What makes this place a paradise?" He asks.

The eerie demon grins and chuckles before answering. "No rules, no laws, no nothing… we're free to do everything we want unlike in Hell"

"Hmmm, isn't hell supposed to be more dim and dark? This place… look and sound like hell." Vas Allen says.

The demon stare intensifies at Vas Allen, "Don't you dare, compare that trashy authoritarian place to this ethereal of a place, no amount of goods would be comparable to this paradise, even [Eden] isn't worthy enough!"

Vas Allen stand there as the demon jumbo many words toward him. "Stop, as you know it, you are going to die… so why aren't you afraid?" Vas Allen say.

The demon for a moment stays quiet, it body twitch almost like he was holding in his laugh. He opened his mouth and say.

"When we die, we return back to Hell just to simply die again, death don't scare us as long as paradise exists!" The demon eyes, even though is hollow, Vas Allen could feel a glint of light oozing out of it.

"This demon is crazy, better to kill him now!" Vas Allen at first wanted to give the eerie demon a painless death, due to how obedient it was being.

"Once I get out of this or rather, once you kill me, I will find you and kill you along with those two dumb kids! Oh~ to see their faces in such despair~" Vas Allen right arm slowly twitch, his body stood there as his mind act on its own.

He summon a giant spikes, made out of rocks to pierce through the center of the demon body, using "Phoenix neglect" he burned the demons arm off.

Vas Allen goes up to the demon legs and repeatedly begins kicking it until the bones cracks, until the legs weren't straight anymore, until the demon couldn't feel its legs anymore, it have been crippled, it can no longer escape.

The demon for the first time, felt fear, his cockiness and ignorance was the fault of this suffering. Its body trembles as it pleaded for its life however Vas Allen didn't say anything, he just looks at the demon as if he was looking at a piece of trash.

Vas Allen tools his time as he slowly strode over tot he demon horns, he have trouble snapping it in two but after a couple of minutes, he manages to break it off of the demon.

"Remember when I say I will stab your heart with your horn? Well let see if you have a heart or not…" Vas Allen says with a sadistic smile.

He slowly impale the horn through where the heart is originally center, slowly and surely, he pressed deeper into the demon body. It screamed out in pain and continued pleading for its life but Vas Allen pay no attention to it.

He continues until he couldn't hear the barking anymore, "Ahh~ peace at last." He got up from where he was crouching and slowly walked toward the two young demon's dead body.

Vas Allen turned around and watches the demon body burned away, "Hmph." He scoffs, as he look back at the two lifeless body.

"I shouldn't let the kids see this…" Placing his hands together, he prays the young demon meet each other in hell.

"What did he meant by this place being a paradise? When you are killed… you return back to hell huh?" Vas Allen went back to where the kids was at.

Luc Mugen ran up to Vas Allen and hugged him, "Vas, I could hear you fighting!" He said. Vas Allen patted his head and told him not to worry about it.

Uma Micheal stays quiet, Vas Allen look at her and asks.

"Are you okay? You're staying awfully quiet!" Uma Micheal shooks hers head,

"Nah, it's nothing, everything is good…" She says, Luc Mugen grabs her hand and told her that they were going to find Kim.

"Yeah… you're right!" She quietly said, not the tone that Luc Mugen was looking for. Vas Allen let out a sigh and sat down, Uma Micheal look at him.

He signal her with his hand to sit next to him, she refused. "I'm not sitting down… it's way too… bloody and nasty!" She says with disgust.

Vas Allen got up and tried to wipe the blood off of his pant. "Yeah, I should've thought more on where I should sit and stand but anyways," He turned his head toward Uma Micheal.

"Is this about the person, Yuriel?" Vas Allen asked.

Uma Micheal give a slight nod.

Vas Allen took a very deep breath before saying anything, "Oh boy, so uhh, our first introduction was weird…" The words he's choosing is very well thought and careful.

"Yuriel you say?" Vas Allen took two deep breath before saying, "…Sorry Uma, I don't know what to say about her, our first introduction wasn't the best…"

Uma Micheal shooks her head, "Don't apologize, it was her fault. She was probably the first one to attack you because the Vas I know wouldn't attack someone willingly."

Vas Allen stood there as if time was frozen, he walked up to Uma Micheal and patted her head, she turned her head up at Vas Allen.

"To make you feel better, why don't we find her along with Kim, this way you could ask her what's been troubling you." He said.

"But, she beat you and Kim… I don't want to face her, she might harm you guys again!" Vas Allen looks at Uma Micheal.

"Ah, she's afraid that Yuriel might hurt us again." Vas Allen thought to himself, he rubs his hair and told Uma Micheal.

"Look, during that time, I admit, I was tired and weak but-" Uma Micheal cut him off.

"Vas, you haven't had any sleep yet, not now nor then, if Yuriel were to attack, then…" Vas Allen patted her head again.

"Trust me, this time meeting will go differently." He put his pinky figure up, to create a promise. "I will keep both myself and Kim safe, I promise."

Uma Micheal rubbed her eye and locked her pinky with Vas Allen. "It's a promise!" She say.

Luc Mugen held Uma Micheal hands, startling her a bit.

"Uma, let's find Kim and…" Luc Mugen hesitated saying Yuriel name, but after inhaling. "We will find both Kim and Yuriel!"

Uma Micheal nods at Luc Mugen.

Vas Allen seeing the two talking, smile softly to himself. "We should be going now." He say. Luc Mugena nd Uma Micheal follow behind him, he put up his arm telling them to stop.

"Erm, before we go, let me check some stuff, stay here for a few second." He power walked to the dead body's but what he saw was just a couple of bones, the body was gone… almost if it have been eaten.

Vas Allen scratch his head, "Huh, where did theirs body's go?" Uma Micheal startled him from behind,

"Vas, what are you doing? Why are you looking at a couple of bones?" Vas Allen turned around to face Uma Micheal, Luc Mugen slowly peeked the corner.

"Uh, don't worry about it, let's go!" Luc Mugen ran up to Vas Allen and held his hand, Uma Micheal stares at Vas Allen hand for a moment and looks away.

"What a kind soul…" She thought to herself.

——-

"I can't even be mad at you, you did save my life!" Kim says.

Yuriel smiled at him, she put her finger on her lips and for a second, she thought about how inconsiderate she was being.

"Kim… right? I was a bit too, disrespectful, if I may say so myself, I would like to give you a proper apology." Yuriel bow slightly at Kim.

Kim was surprised but told her to not do that, "I just want an apology, no need for the fancy bow!" He told her.

Yuriel nods and says, "You know what, I still have to apology to your friend but I will do any one favor you ask of me."

"Any one favor, huh?" Kim says as he look forward.

"Any one favor!" Yuriel said.

Kim kept on walking, he didn't say anything, "Guess I have to save that one favor…" He thought to himself.

Yuriel stared at Kim, "Why you suddenly being quiet? It's kinda weird!" She said. Kim just chuckled and continued walking, Yuriel walked along side him.
