Even with Reinhardt destroying the summoning gate, too many demons had already infiltrated the city.
"Ahhh!! Ahhh!!… S-Someone, please save my mom. Momm!!"
A little girl cried out in front of a collapsed two storey house, unaware of the demon that was slowly creeping towards her.
Feeling the ground shake behind her, the girl turned around, only to fall down crying and afraid. The demon feeding on her emotions showed a pleased expression and reached out to eat her.
Just then…
"Leave her alone, you vile demon!!" A boisterous voice of a boy in his early teens rang out. A dark crimson sword cleaved through the air and came down in an overhead chop.
Perhaps it might have worked had he been silent about it, or perhaps not. Nevertheless, with him shouting like that, there was no way the demon was getting hit.
Easily, it dodged the attack and backed away.
CLANG… the sword dropped on the ground, missing its mark. Nevertheless, the boy had achieved his goal.
