Deka stood up from the ground and looked at Giron to see the proud expression on his face, "I did it… I killed a demon." He muttered in excitement.
"Deka… You were amazing, but how were you able to move like that?" The red-haired elf asked as she moved away from him.
"I don't… I don't know, I just… did." He responded with his gaze focused on the scythe.
"It's safe to say, there's some kind of magic boost in that Scythe," Elena uttered and stood to her feet, holding her broken arm as she drew closer.
"You really think so?" Deka asked.
"Hm uhm." Elena shook her head in agreement, "Since now we know you can take on a demon, we should go lend our helper a hand." She muttered looking at Giron to see if he objects.
Giron smiled, "You can, but be careful… I wish you good luck, I won't be any help. He said looking at Elena's damaged body but hid the sadness he was felt.
"Thank you chief, okay, let's go." She said, picking her blade on the ground with a grunt.
"Oh no, there's no way I'm letting you go, look at yourself." The red-haired elf uttered.
Elena smiled before turning to look at her, "I'll fine Latina, I do have healing magic you know." She said.
"I don't remember your healing magic being strong enough to heal broken bones." Latina voiced before sighing, "I'll go with him,".
"Are you stupid?" Elena yelled.
"I refuse!" Deka yelled alongside Elena, "You're pregnant you Idiot, what kind of man sends his pregnant wife to fight demons?" He yelled again.
Latina grunted, "What the hell do you want me to do then? Look at her, she can't even walk properly!" She yelled back.
"Look, I get it, you wanna help, but you can't.. not when you are carrying a child," Deka said with a soft tone.
"Agree with them, you shouldn't go." Giron interrupted.
"Chief!" Latina called out, "You know this is the best cause, it's either this or we run." She uttered.
"You are not going… we will all be coming with you, it's our village and we all should put in equal efforts." Giron voiced.
"Chief!" Both Deka and Elena yelled in unison.
Latina immediately looked at Deka with a smug look on her face which led to Deka sighing at the thought of his wife going into battle.
"Yayyy! We are going to go kick some demon butt!" One of the kid elves yelled.
"Chief, you have to reconsider." Elena voiced out, "We don't know if the demos have-".
She paused when they all suddenly heard a feminine scream coming from the village.
"That was Diana!" Latina muttered before dashing toward the village.
"Latina, come back!" Deka yelled before chasing after her.
Elena did the same, with her blade in her hand, she ran after them, while the rest of the village followed.
Deka arrived at the cliff and he could see the whole village below him, just to his left, he spotted Latina hiding behind the boulder as she spied on the demons.
"Latina-".
She immediately hushed him, "Keep it down, quick come see something." She whispered.
Deke moved closer to her and went to his knees, peeping from the side to look at what was going on.
The rest of the village joined in not long after to also have a peek at what Deka and Latina were looking at.
Sato stood in front of the demon, "Look, I'm not looking for conflict if that's at all possible, all I'm asking you to do is release the girl." He said.
"You must think you are some kind of hot stuff, well I'm sorry to disappoint you but I've lost my patience." The demon uttered.
He tossed the girl he was holding over to his men and began to approach Zeno with his sword covered in magic.
"Should we go help him?" Latina whispered as she peeped.
"I don't know, he said specifically to not come in unless he gave the go-ahead," Elena whispered back.
"I don't know, taking two demons at once is a big deal." Deka said.
"He took on a God bird, I doubt they are any stronger." Giron muttered.
Sato's grim reaper could sense the elves from afar, so all she did was look at them before changing her focus back to Sato.
Sato gave a sigh, "I just said, I wanted to avoid conflict, you keep doing the opposite of what I ask for." He muttered.
"Shut your mouth you brat!" The demon yelled and launched himself toward Sato, looking to land a strike.
Unexpectedly, Divanchi whooshed to the front with a grin on her lips and fire swarming around her body.
The demon was shocked but he was moving too fast for him to make a quick stop, 'Who the hell is this?... Screw it, I don't care,'.
He held his sword tighter and swung it at her, to his surprise, Divanchi broke his sword with just a punch.
His eyes widened as he watched her move to his left and land a kick to his spine, she was moving twice his speed which led to the massive wind that blew after.
The demon's body went tumbling to the ground before she smashed into one of the tiny huts in the village.
"Sir Xong!" The two demons called out before leaving the elves and running toward him.
"Good job." Sato praised as he smiled at Divanchi.
She gave a smug look in return, "Did you expect anything less from the almighty Divanchi!" She uttered with a loud laugh.
Sato smiled, he then turned to face the female grim reaper, he stared at her for a while before sighing.
"Helix, does she by any chance have a name?" He asked.
<<Negative… you have not blessed her with a name.
Naming one's servant is essential in this world to heighten their growth as beings>>
"I see…" Sato went into thinking, "Okay, how about… oh I know Yuri!" He muttered with a proud look.
<<Death angel confirmed as… Yuri>>
'Wait, death angel? I thought she was a grim reaper?' Sato shouted.
<<Negative… grim reaper went through evolution after summoning, hence accumulated a gender to fit your needs and Evolved into a Divine beast… Death angel>>
"Awesome!" He murmured, "In that care, Yuri!" He called out.
Yuri walked toward Sato and immediately went to her knees with her head bowed, the gesture startled him at first but he chose to ignore it.
"I need you to transport these villagers back to their people in the forest." He said.
Yuri looked up at Sato, "Master…are you perhaps referring to them?" She asked before pointing to the Clif.
Deka and the rest tried to hide when they saw Sato look over to their side, but were able to see them with the help of his skill perception.
He could see their heatwave through the rock, "What the hell are they doing?" He muttered, with his eyes brown twitching in annoyance.
