"Look at you. Got beaten by a human and you already have your wings between your legs. He's just a single human who threw his lot with Devils. This is nothing more than somebody's attempt at survival. He'll fail like all the rest." Mittelt dismissed the though caustically enough sitting next to Kalawarner who huffed in annoyance at her invaded space.
Raynare looked off into the grove clearly not convinced. She had almost died. She was listening to the voice that had told her to run now but she needed to wait. Appearing like a coward in front of the people you were scheming with would show them that she was a weak link and deserved to be gotten rid of.
'Okay… it's okay… it's okay! Just… just stay calm.' The bravado of his plan was starting to escape him now. Ritsuka didn't think there would have been more of these guys in the immediate area but two more magical signatures had appeared. They were about as strong as Raynare but less so than the jerk chasing after him.
His first trap had gone off without a hitch. It did almost nothing. The explosion trap had sprayed the Fallen Angel with shrapnel which was shrugged off without much effort.
'Okay… maybe a little overconfident but it would have worked on what I had planned for.' Ritsuka mentally sighed. He had planned for Raynare specifically and not this new foe.
That meant he would have to do more than just lead him into traps or at least not rely on the traps as the primary damage dealing item. Using the small pulse of the explosion Ritsuka threw several kunai at the Fallen Angel. The darkness of the grove and the speed of which he threw them knocked the foe off guard as they all embedded themselves into his torso.
With a small burst of magical energy he used Kotarou's Sabotage skill. Channeling it through the kunai the Fallen Angel faltered in the sky. He needed to make this count.
With the spears appearing far less brighter than usual Ritsuka took his chance. Using the speed of Kotarou's spirit, he launched forward using the branches that were left during the Fallen Angel's rampage.
Spears flew by illuminating the area but that didn't stop what was about to happen. There was a sharp screech as Ritsuka jumped past his new enemy.
A single black wing fell to the ground. Ritsuka held onto his side where a spear had managed to graze him boiling the skin where it had touched. He had been through worse but it still hurt like hell.
The Fallen Angel's face was frozen in a glaring rictus. Charging directly for Ritsuka again, he pulled out his spears once more. Ritsuka tensed up waiting for the right moment. It was do or die.
Raising his hand, Ritsuka activated another one of the small explosives Kotarou sometimes used for distractions. The sudden blast of shrapnel allowed the smallest of opening for Ritsuka to use the kusarigama. A simple slash knocked off another wing leaving the Fallen Angel a screaming mess. It was enough at this point as the chain now came into play.
Activating Kotarou's final skill caused a shadow to fall over his back. Too angry to realize it was a trick he looked at the rustling of leaves behind him. A spear launched at the spot.
"Fuck…" The Fallen Angel intoned as the chain wrapped around his body restricting his arms and wings close to his body. The blood coming from the stumps that were his lower wings slathered the chain in viscera.
Ritsuka jumped forward keeping the last bit of the chains around one of the tree trunks. The sickle was inserted around the loop of the chain keeping the Fallen Angel in place. Unfortunately, the influence of Kotarou made his decision clear. Before he knew what he was doing Ritsuka pulled out two azoth blades and pierced them into the Fallen Angel's arms pinning their arms into their sides. The scream he let out brought Ritsuka out of his trance.
"You bastardous little shit. When I get out of here I'll- " The Fallen Angel screamed only for the influence to come back. Another azoth blade came out and sliced off another wing. The nonchalance that painted Ritsuka's face caused the Fallen Angel to shut his mouth.
"Answer. Name. Now." Ritsuka demanded in three short sentences. The azoth blade was brought at the stump of the last wing.
"Wait! Wait wait wait! I'll talk! I'll talk! It's Dohnaseek." Dohnaseek answered as the fear dripped from his lips. What was left of his suit was covered in blood that seeped from the remnants of the wings.
"Sacred Gears. Which are you after?" Ritsuka asked his second question. He couldn't directly ask what Sacred Gears were lest they find out he was ignorant of the world but he stored that info away until he could figure out what exactly they were.
"Raynare found two… I don't know their names. She said Azazel wanted us to take care of them." Dohnaseek answered though Ritsuka wouldn't bring the blade away from his last wing.
"Grigori are led by Azazel? What is your organization about?" Ritsuka mentioned quietly as he brought the blade closer to the base where his back met the connectors of the wing. "Lie and lose."
Ritsuka felt stranger than usual. He felt very willing to go through with this… torture. He needed to stop and remove this card from his mind. It felt like he was okay in dealing with these things head on… to kill.
"We proved we are superior to all other beings in this world. We will prove our perfection to all others." Dohnaseek proudly stated… though the fear in his eyes when Ritsuka stared into them was palpable. The chance of death was rising with every passing second.
'He's just a human! Just a human, right!?' Dohnaseek was panicking now. He couldn't feel his arms anymore with the two blades lodged into them keeping them pinned to his side. The wounds were superficial enough that it wouldn't kill him but he was at the mercy at this human.
