While Jayden was enjoying the touch of Hecate's soft body, he heard the growling of a demon, it seemed that the demon had finally arrived near the water, it slowed down and began to drink water.
Turning his head in the direction of the demon, he focussed and found that the demon seemed to be a little injured, its breathing was ragged as if it had just escaped from a battle.
' Is it being hunted by another demon or are there humans around here? ' Jayden thought, his mind was completely focussed on the surroundings, but Hecate was having a tough time concentrating when she was this close to a man for the first time in her life.
She slowly turned her head and saw that Jayden was looking in a different direction, taking in a deep breath she wanted to calm her mind but since they were so close she actually ended up sniffing his scent, which she actually found quite enticing.
There was a strange glint in her eyes while some thoughts ran through her head, it was impossible for Jayden to know what she was thinking, but she no longer looked flustered.
Jayden was still focusing on the outside, the demon rested in the water washing away its wounds while for some reason it was being careful of its surroundings.
*BANG*
Just then something came flying towards the demon and without giving it the time to move it hit the demon right on its back, a painful cry was released by its mouth as the sounds of several footsteps sounded.
" Haha, I told you this demon would definitely come running towards the waterfall. "
The voice of a man sounded, Jayden used his Void skill to observe everything outside he could finally make out a demon that was laying on its side in the water while colouring it red with its blood.
This 3rd Zone demon is the weakest among all the others Jayden have seen so far, maybe it was still too young, it was like a lizard with a long mouth, because of the injuries present on its body the demon was trembling violently while constantly releasing painful cries as if calling someone for help.
" I- It's actually a baby demon, I think it's calling for its parents. " Hecate said, but her gaze remained fixed on Jayden.
Nodding his head Jayden was about to reply when Anna's voice sounded in his head.
All three of them were wearing white coloured clothes, which looked similar to pants and shirts, and it seemed to be a uniform.
' So these two must be here to collect the Demon cores and that 3rd man is here to help them, and that uniform...Are they from that academy or something ? ' he thought, but observed them silently without revealing his location.
" Yeah yeah, you are always right." The second man spoke, the two of them were in their early thirties while the man following them was in his mid forties.

" Big bro, let me kill this one then I could boast among others that I had actually killed a 3rd Zone demon. " The boy who had a shiny bald head spoke, rubbing the back of his head.
" No baldy, we have decided last time that I'll be the one to kill the first demon, don't go back on your words now. " The second boy shouted, not caring about his surroundings.
" Huuuh, why would you be the first? I'm older than you, so I'm going to be the first one. " The baldy said, rubbing his shiny head as if wiping off the dust from its smooth surface.
" Of course, I have to be the first since I still have hair. " The second boy said waving his long ponytail in front of Baldy.
" Stop it, both of you. We can't waste time here on your useless discussion, just do it like a proper man. "
The third man said, even as he talked his gaze remained on the body of the injured demon, then he added: " Just toss a coin, whoever wins will be able to slay this 3rd Zone demon. "
The other two men had an enlightenment, as Baldy hastily took out a coin and tossed it high in the air.
In the end, Baldy actually lost and the second man began to rejoice but as it turned out the Baldy was a petty loser and he actually pounced towards the injured demon while waving his sword with a crazy wide grin
