It did not believe that Damien would stay behind the sa rock after being given so much free ti. It was completely on guard.
It surveyed the environnt.
Yet could not find even a single area where it could pin point where Damien was. Nor where Juiette was.
The spirit saw her as harmless, yet not stupid. It knew that she was also given so much free ti. Hence why it riled up two fireballs within each palm of its hands.
While doing nothing but surveying the environnt with full focus.
Pity... what the spirit failed to take into consideration, was the dying body of the demon that it had unintentionally rescued.
It was missing.
It's focus was more on Damien. And Juliette in second place. While the demon? It did not even care about its life, let alone its corpse.
Unfortunately for it, the demon was a crucial part of Damien's current plan. And the very reason why the spirit would lose its life right about now.
*** Juliette ***
I was still scared shitless, and trembling to myself, when words that causes my heart to freeze for the nth ti today, rang within my ears.
"I'll be back."
They were the words of my only hope and salvation, ringing out while fading away within my ears. I was surprised. I was flabbergasted.
But most importantly, I felt betrayed once again. How could one man betrayed my heart so many tis in a row, in a single day, under five minutes!!
How?!
I thought to myself while watching his figure hide behind another boulder quite far from here. It was as if he was making sure I would not have the courage to chase after him.
And I do not.
Congratulations to him. I thought to myself, relaxing my nervousness. I sotis love my thought process you know.
The fact that I don't seem like I am taking this seriously at all. It shows I was a bit sick in the head, and I actually am glad about that.
But believe , I am not.
That aside, I watched as big brother Damien took a large rock, one larger than an adult humans head within his hand.
He weighed it briefly and then threw it up as strongly as he could possibly throw.
I followed the rock briefly, until I felt my senses kicking in. I hurriedly looked back at big brother Damien, and there...
He was gone!!
It did not take much thought from my side to rationalize his actions. That rock was a decoy. A trap. And a signal for us to switch positions to confuse the enemy!!
I am not sure if that was the case, but I took it as such. And my body did not fail to respond as well. Hence I made my move.
I hurriedly, yet silently moved as well, rushing towards a close by boulder at the back.
And from there, I moved towards the closest one, then the closest one to that one. And mind you, I was carefully retreating all the while, at my fastest speed.
Making sure to be careful.
I was switching position really fast and carefully, and soon, I found myself moving to a place far from that thing.
'Would big brother be okay with this? Or should I move closer?' I thought to myself as tried to imagine what his response would be if I asked him that question.
'Pretty girls should just stay back and do the watching. Let the n handle this.'
Yup. That would be his response. I scowled at my own imagination. But then, when I turned my eyes to look backwards, I saw an impressive view.
Hm? Is that... Wow, who knew that from here, I could actually see both big brother Damien, and that fire thingie from here.
I was at an elevation compared to them. More like, on a higher slope than them. While big brother Damien was even at a lower slope than that thing.
I don't know when, but he appeared behind it, and he held the corpse of that demon thing. His hand also covered in green liquid. His hands are dripping with it.
Did... did he kill it?
Finally. What a relief.
One down, one to go. I am glad I was not able to see the process. Yet disappointed that I was not able to forge myself into adapting to gore and murder.
I guess... another ti.
And I doubt killing this thing, would help with that. It does not even seem fleshy at all, or that it even contains blood within its body.
I guess I'll watch for now.
But just as I had that thought, sothing chid within my head that almost scared to death. But my body did not react, I was getting used to surprises and stuff now.
TING!!!

"..."
I was left with no words.
I know you are tired of my abusive use of "speechless" and "flabbergasted". I too. So, I was left with no words.
But I did love hearing whatever this thing was, call big brother Damien my partner. As it should. Yes. As, it, should.
Hm?
A sign?
I watched big brother Damien sneak a few glances towards that fire thing. I realized that he was looking for an opportunity, but it was not giving him any chance.
It was really cautious, and paranoid. There was close to 0% chance that he would get an opportunity from it.
So what would he do now? What should we do? I asked myself, slightly panicking inside. I knew that if we failed here, it was death.
But there was nothing we could...
Wait, hold on. There, there is sothing I could do. Though dangerous, who is not risking their lives for the other right now?
Yes, no one. So I also have to do it.
I hyped myself up, clearing out any irrelevant thoughts and emotions. If there is no opportunity, I will make one for him.
It was ti to prove myself to big brother Damien that I was more than just a girl!!
That I was more than just a princess deserving of her prince charming, to always co to her rescue. But I don't mind him either.
I was also a woman.
One aspiring to beco HIS woman!!!
With such thoughts, I was hyped even more and walked out of my hiding spot. A handful of small and dium sized pebbles within my hands.
I was within an opening, where I was easily spotted by both parties. That thing. And big brother Damien. They all looked up at .
Oh wow, the attention is too much. But...
'Watch, watch as I beco useful... and do sothing I'd probably regret if I fail.' I thought and began throwing the pebbles towards the fire thing.
I might not be physically strong, but I was a third generational human as well. I was still plenty tis stronger than ordinary humans, and so second generational ones as well.
Thus my pebbles were fast, traveling at almost five hundred miles per hous, and held quite the montum with it.
Even as far as I was, they reached the spirit with enough force to deal damage. Unfortunately, it was made up of fire.
It looked up at strangely, I was sure of that expression.
It was confused, and just watched as the pebbles flew towards it from up here, like light rain falling from the sky.
In the anti, I begged within my heart, and also prayed. Making sure that my eyes never gazed towards where big brother Damien hid himself.
Please work.
Please be distracted.
Please focus on , and only !!
And it seems that whatever God that exists behind our race, answered my prayers, for I finally saw the fire demon, or whatever it was, gather a ball of flas within its hands.
Of course I trembled a bit, but that was a given. And I made sure to stay as strong willed as a Buffalo... Moving on.
The constant shower of pebbles did no damage, as they just flew by past it. But it seems like it was annoyed, as it's gaze clearly resembled that of an annoyed child.
YES, finally I got you sucker!!
Hahahaha.
I thought in joy as big brother seed to respond to my job well done. He first briefly glanced at , and let out a smile of disbelief and... pride?
anwhile the fire thingie had yet to notice any of what was going on. It had successfully fallen into our trap.
And now, the deciding factor was about to fall upon what big brother Damien would do from now on.
And indeed, what would he do?
