10. Trying to figure things out
"Okay, okay, let me get this straight." Shachihoko started. "You let HIM-" He pointed at Sylvan when he said 'him.' "Drink YOUR BLOOD!? That's really gross!" He exclaimed to Kai.
Kai sighed. "I repeat, it was not as bad as you thought!" He started, but then Sylvan butted in.
"Yeah! I mean, I only drained of probably appoximately three wine bottles worth of blood. I've done way worse, trust me." Everyone stared at Sylvan as soon as he finished his statement.
"You actually measured how much blood you drained him of?" Kawachi spoke, gaping at him.
Sylvan sighed. "Kind of. We demons have a habit of 'needing' a certain amount of blood, but obviously we usually want more than 'needed.' You should be happy I didn't drain him completely of his blood." He explained.
"Demons really have it hard when it comes to blood, don't they?"
"Yup."
"So now we're all banding together, trying to hunt down Yukino who caused the whole plan to 'immerse the whole land in darkness' and caused Sylvan to become a demon, and kill her?" Kai asked.
"Yeah." Azuma answered him. "But where are we supposed to start looking, anyway?"
"Hmm..." Monica trailed off before turning to Sylvan. "Are you able to sense Yukino, with you being a demon and all?" She asked.
"Can't do that. Sorry." Sylvan responded sheepishly. "Sadly, despite the fact that demons are the highest-ranking creatures under her command, we can't even sense her, which I think is really stupid! But then again, if one of us such as myself went against her, if we can't sense her it's a good thing for her. Just not for those who go against her."
"Wait...other demons?" Kanmuri asked. "There's more of them?"
"Of course. Why wouldn't there be?"
"Then..." Tsukino paused before asking, "Wouldn't the other demons try to destroy you, considering you decided to go against Yukino?"
Sylvan cringed. "Crap. You're completely right. I forgot that minor detail."
"YOU CALL THAT MINOR!?" Kawachi exclaimed. "They could be trying to hunt us down right now! We can't just stand here, can we!?"
"Well, we could and get killled. Either that, or we run and possibly survive. Your choice." Sylvan reassured him, smirking a bit.
"It's not funny!"
Kai sighed, standing up before starting to walk off. "If that's the case, we probably should get moving now. The other demons could be getting closer any minute." He turned to Sylvan. "How many other demons are there, anyway?"
"...Nine. I'm the highest-ranked out of all of them, actually, but I'm sure they could probably rip me limb from limb if they all ganged up together. Thankfully, they're terrible at teamwork." Sylvan told him.
Kai did not appear to be anymore comforted by this fact, nor did anyone else. "...This is just great."
Author note: ...Incredibly short chapter. Late update. I know. I'm sorry... I swear the next chapter will be longer. I hope...
