Chapter 62. Chase His Shadow

63 Chapter 62. Chase His Shadow

Foxy was just about to peek behind me but I grabbed her hand to stop her. She turned her head at me and looked at me in confusion.

"Can you turn into a cap?" I asked in a low voice.

She nodded quickly and took my hand.

- Puff!

In a second, she disappeared and turned into a yellow cap in my hand.

"Answer me ...! What are you?" screamed Emma with all her might. I knew she was under the Demonic Curse, that's why she could not do anything. And that question... Since she had seen my demonic form she would have guessed that I was a demon but of course she still had doubts because her Demon Compass didn't react to me, also why I didn't attack her.

Without answering, I used the cap over my head, dashed to the edge of the building and jumped as I opened my wings.

"Wait!" I could hear her voice accompanied by the sound of her footsteps.Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com

I glided all the way down and returned to behind the tree where I put my bag earlier.

'Demonic Form deactivated!'

[You have deactivated your Demonic Form.]

A second later, a dark aura covered my body, my wings, horns and tail turned into the dark aura and disappeared, and the colour of my eyes returned to normal.

"Master, I didn't know you could shape-shifting like me," Foxy's voice sounded from the cap over my head.

"This is just my human form. I can't turn into many things like you," I replied. It felt weird talking to a cap. I took Foxy from my head.

"I'll put you in my bag for a while." I put her in my bag and left it slightly ajar, so she could breathe.

Quickly, I put on my sweater and grabbed my bag. I raised my hand and clenched it.

'Devil Space Deactivated.'

She was on the last staircase when a scream followed by a large object falling's sound rang out. Emma's heart skipped a beat.

'Did he lose?' Her feet stepped, sweat dripping down her face and down her neck.

Her hand opened the door in front of her slowly and peeked through the gap. Her eyes were immediately fixed on the winged demon figure. She swept her gaze around, making sure there weren't any other demons around before she stepped out to approach him in shuffling steps.

"Who ... Who are you ...?" Heavy breathing was heard mingled with her weak voice.

He didn't answer.

Emma kept walking, approaching him from behind.

"Answer me ...! What are you?" she asked again. In her heart, she kept praying that he was an unknown hybrid-beast, not a demon.

But he still didn't answer.

He placed a yellow cap on his head, making her chances of getting a glance off his face getting smaller before running away.

"Wait!" shouted Emma, hastening her steps, trying to chase him. But with her condition, it ended in vain.

"Please wait ..." said Emma in a weaker voice. Her body dropped to the ground weakly, her breath was gasping, her eyes stared at the winged demon that flapped his wings away.

But a second later, she gritted her teeth in determination. She got up and walked towards the place where the demon had jumped. But after several steps, suddenly the sky above her head broke like glass and uncovered the real sky. All the damage suddenly disappeared, as if nothing had happened there, the wind was blowing hard combing her hair and the pain in her chest slowly disappeared.

'It's him ... I'm sure it's him! '

She remembered, last night she also experienced the same thing. She saw the sky suddenly shattered like glass, but unfortunately at that time Theo and the other demon hunters didn't notice it because their eyes were too busy looking for the demons. Whereas they only considered the pain in their chest as an ordinary anomaly due to too many demons gathered in one place.

As the pain in her body improved, she immediately walked towards the edge of the building and looked down, trying to find the winged demon but she didn't find it.

Not giving up, she swept her gaze, trying to find a clue or whatever but she could only see the students that pass through the courtyard and no one else noticed this incident apart from her as if she was just hallucinating. But of course, she knew perfectly that she didn't.

She let out a tired sigh and dropped herself to the ground, not expecting her efforts ended in vain.

"Damian ..." she muttered unconsciously. He was the only clue she has now. The only person she could tell about this without considering she was insane.Because even though Larry and Theo already believed in yesterday's incident, this incident was different. A winged demon killing other demons sounded more absurd than the black lances that suddenly fell and killed the Imps before their very eyes.

She got back to her feet and ran back into the building.

'Yes! I have to meet Damian today! '
