The Demon Hero


Prologue


"So this is a demon team camp site?" Demitrian asked as the looked through binoculars.

"Yeah. The war has already started." Irena said as she gave a small glare at the camp. "It's like a secret war though."

"So we're supposed to get Chrno to use his power to stop time. And then settle the war between the loyalist and the rebels." Takaro read off a paper in his hand. "Ironic isn't it? We came to see him last time because of those time powers."

"Now we're putting our faith in him to stop the war and save the war by keeping the balance?" Sabrine asked dully.

All the other shrugged. A couple minutes later they were all sitting in a tree near Magdale.

Irena sighed. "How are we supposed to get their help?"

"They still have that knife with them. We can transform it into a letter once they wake up." Rika said as she picked up her book and started reading.

The five sat in the sat in the tree and waited until sunrise. The window to Rosette's room opened as she fell out. Chrno was standing at the window looking down at the pond. Rosette angrily climbed back up and started strangling Chrno. But then the drawer with the knife started glowing. Rosette opened the drawer. As she picked up the knife, it suddenly turned into a letter.

"What's this?" Rosette asked.

Chrno stood next to her and they both stared at the letter. In the trees, the Guardians all watched nervously; except for Rika who had a sinister look on her face.
