Chapter 26: The Lilim, who saw the truth.
...
Reginald widened his eyes in disbelief while his hand clenched on the hilt of his weapon. Ash and Sasha heard frantic screaming of customers coming from behind and saw an unusual individual who stood before Elen's older brother. Ilassa exhaled in disappointment to the scared guests and herself that she had exposed her own identity out of pride until she gained attention from Ash Cyrus and Sasha Fullmoon.
"D-Did I just heard that right?"
"A-A Lilim, here!? Out of all places!?"
Ash and Sasha heard the words of the customers around the restaurant and spreads out their fearful commotions. Only one word the couple understood would mean one thing, is that the daughter of the Demon Lord is right here; in this very restaurant. The two tensed when Sasha reached for her talisman and Ash for his broadsword until the Lilim raised her hands and waved in surrender.
"Whoa whoa whoa! H-Hey, I'm not here for causing a ruckus!" Ilassa replied nervously with a smile. "I-I just only came here to see the infamous Knight and his Maiden, that's all!"
Ash's expression remains unfazed, yet his senses did not detect hostility and lowered his guard for a bit. "Then why are you here to stalk at us? Do you have any reason?"
"W-Well, umm, I just heard about the rumors that have been circulating by the Mamono's around the continent," Ilassa speaks out with a bit of nervousness before turning to Sasha. "Also, I know what you're thinking. But I'm not here to monsterize you."
Sasha stiffened and took a step back to hide behind Ash. But the standoff broke off as they were interjected by a Knight of Sunlight, Arcturus and Elain came to see the commotion before he widened his eyes to the Lilim in disbelief.
"A-Aunt Ilassa!? Is that you!?" Arcturus spoke up before Sasha and Ash turned to him in surprise to call her that. "Hey! It's been five years since we've met! How are you doing?"
At that moment, Sasha dropped her jaw incredulously. "Wait, Auntie!? Is that Lilim your auntie!?"
"His Godmother, in fact. She's also his tutor who taught him the general subjects about Mamono's." Elaine replied before giving the Lilim a mischievous smirk while crossing her arms. "It's been a while to see ya' ol' granny~!"
"Oi, I might be old, but not that old!" Ilassa pouts while pointing her index finger at the orc. Then the lilim sighed deeply out from stress. "A-Anyway, is Gerome with you?"
"Yo! If it isn't the traveling granny!" Gerome greeted Ilassa from behind in surprise with a single tap on her back. "Long time no see!"
"G-Gerome! Why you little rascal!" Ilassa growled in annoyance before her head perks up in realization before looking around the restaurant. "Oh... wait, we shouldn't be making a scene here."
"Nah, that's okay Auntie," Arcturus waved his hand with a dismissal before turning around to Sasha and Ash. "Oh, also we made friends along the way."
"Ah, I see. Then that's good!" Ilassa smiled while making a proud nod. "So by the way, the reason I came here is that I was going to meet with a person of interest."
Then Ilassa pointed towards Ash to everyone's surprise. "And that's him!"
Sasha grew a bit worried to see the Lilim points her finger at Ash while he looks around and then pointed himself in confusion. "Me?"
"Yeah, you!" Ilassa replied.
"...What sort of business does it have to do with me?" Ash asked before his eyes scrunched behind his helmet visor. "Or is it about my reputation?"
"Kind of, but not just that." Ilassa then placed her hands on her hips while looking down with an amused, but a sad smile plastered on her face. "A few days ago, I received a message from a Banshee and told me what just happened to the Fallen God."
Ash then grew silent as everyone else while Sasha was intrigued before looking up to him with a worried look. Ilassa then made a light kick on the floor's wooden surface.
"While I was minding my own business, I felt an eerie feeling." Ilassa then turns her eyes up to him. "But this feeling isn't all new. I've experienced that one before... and I knew a God had just released a wave of emotions that entails one thing... Dread."
"Um... If I may..." Sasha raised her hand slightly. "Just... what are you trying to talk to Ash about something from the Fallen God?"
"Well. Curious, aren't ya? Alright, I'm going to speak to the point." Ilassa chuckled while raising both of her hands and waved. "The message I've received from Hel who talks about your boyfriend or whatever you prefer him... The thing is...the Fallen God was slain..."
...
...
"...by the Silver-Blue Knight of Lescatie!?" Lilith dropped her goblet of wine to the floor. The said object let out an echoing clang throughout the throne hall. "Impossible... defeated by a mortal... no less!"
"Indeed." The person who stood before her, an Elder Banshee bowed to the Demon Lord in response. "It might have been impossible, but Fate allowed her death."
"How... how can this be..." Lilith felt her body became stiff with horror and eyes wide open while slowly looking down. She wished that was a lie, yet her voice emanates the truth that no deceiving words can be found; now realizing her dream for a Paradise of Love is becoming bleaker to the point of a dead end. "This can't be happening..."
The Demon Lord's Husband looked to his wife beside him as his expression morphed into worry before Lilith slowly lifts her head. Now showing a look of fear, her husband knew the Fallen God is an important ally for expanding the demon realm by corrupting the human clergy so that they could invade the human nation with ease in a matter of hours. Unless if the said nation is in the same state as Lescatie or Polove. The Fallen God now dead in its tracks and the Demon Realm soon realize that a new adversary is more dangerous than they realize.
"A God Slayer," Lilith uttered in horror. She knew that the Fallen God is a clone counterpart of Chief God ever since her ascension, and both had similar powers and divine adherents to one another. But her most important asset being killed by a mortal warrior tells that he has the chance to kill other deities, including the Chief God. "Don't tell me... this new adversary of ours... is capable to kill Gods?"
"I believe so... Our Goddess said that this Silver-Blue Knight of Lescatie is an Outworlder." The Elder Banshee nods while looking down in worry. "Hel saw visions from another realm, his origins; a world with multiple worlds... where there are warriors who never feared the Gods and overcome many impossible odds."
Lilith swallowed a lump through her throat before raising her hand. "You are dismissed."
The Elder Banshee bowed before disappearing from her sight. Lilith slumped on her throne as her palm struck her forehead before looking up at her husband.
"Honey..."
"... Dear." Lilith then trembled as her eyes produced tears. She sat back up before hugging him. "It's the dreams... I'm... I'm scared."
Her husband was surprised all of a sudden before he hugged her back in return to comfort her from the coming crisis.
"It's alright..." Her husband cooed while patting her shoulders. "I'm here, I won't leave you..."
...
...
Olivier and Sasha dropped their jaws in disbelief while on the bar, Jennifer shared their same reactions after hearing the words coming out from a Lilim. Reginald and Elen had their looks of surprise while Arcturus, Elaine, Gerome, and Junayd were mildly surprised to hear the tales. Their ancestors might have defeated the Goddess Ares, twice, but they did not outright kill her and spared the deity from turning the tables in her favor.
But slaying a God might take to another level.
"A-Ash... you..." Sasha then held Ash on both of his shoulders. Then her head coming close to his face, looking at him with frantic eyes. "You killed the Fallen God!?"
"Um, well. Yeah, I did." Ash answered admittedly before he took a deep breath. "Alright, I killed the Fallen God but I prefer to not speak about this-"
"B-But Ash, you killed a God! A monster god exact!" Sasha then held her grip tight, before shaking Ash back and forth, hysterically. "So you never mention that you killed a deity after I was being rescued and you never told me about this!? You said you're not a Hero!? Then explain how did you slay a dark deity!"
"H-Hey Sasha cut that out!" Sieglinde speaks up while trying to stop the former Priestess from shaking the poor knight. "Stop it! He just ate food and you might let him puke!"
"Hah~, This will be a long day to tell why I am here." Ilassa groaned in disappointment before looking up at the couple while Sasha let Ash go. "So, you both done?"
Sasha and Ash nodded silently before the Lilim took a seat on their table and ordered a cup of tea to Sieglinde. Ash and Sasha followed the suit and took their seats.
"So... where should we begin?" Ilassa asked while making a steepling pose on the table. Then Sasha raised her hand. "Ah! I see you have a question. Then what do you want to ask?"
The former Priestess then asked. "About the Fallen God... is it true that she... is slain?"
The Lilim nodded. "... To be honest, I wasn't actually lying since this matter of subject is serious."
Sasha felt her heart pounded as her inner spirit trembles in realization about her Knight's capability to defeat a God, yet she kept her calm composure while glancing at Ash with a blank look on her face before staring right back at Ilassa.
"I-I see... So another question, how come did Arcturus and his relatives called you their "Auntie"?" Sasha then asked. "Also Elaine said you were his "Godmother"... Then are you by any means a member of their family?"
"Oh no, I haven't married to any members of the Astora Family... yet," Ilassa replies with a mischievous smirk while rolling her eyes. "I am in fact allies with them."
"Allies? From what I've heard; the Demon Realm despised them for hurting the 2nd Borne." Ash asked while raising his brow. "Unless you have a reason, then why should you take sides with them?"
"Hum~ Actually, my answer is this; It is because of their Grandfather." Ilassa pointed at the three Knights of the Sunlight. "Artos was indeed an interesting individual, and we have a lot of fun back then. Hah~ I remember Dina, a valkyrie, and their grandmother, who used to argue with each other."
"Wait... Arcturus' Grandmother is a Valkyrie!?" Sasha's eyes bulged out in disbelief. "O-One of the Divine Adherents of the Gods!?"
"Yeah, I visited her cottage in the rural countryside when I was young," Arcturus replied with a smile while shyly scratching the back of his head. "She used to serve under Ares until Gramps told me he severed her loyalty from her God."
"Eh? But how did he do that?" Arcturus turned around and saw Olivier joining the discussion. "From what I learned about the Valkyries; they have an unbroken loyalty to their deity. But their loyalty would be cut off when they're monsterized."
"You're not wrong, but my grandmother isn't a Dark Valkyrie if that's what you're thinking," Arcturus replied with a shrug.
Olivier then asked. "Then how did he do it?"
"He got into a duel with Ares," Arcturus explained before Sasha and Olivier paled in silence. "Until the Goddess of Fighting was defeated by a single lightning spear that struck into her chest. My Grandfather told me it was sheer luck that did it."
"As I can remember, he does have that Devil's Luck with him, then the Goddess accepted to his deal out of humiliation by letting Dina gaining her free will to be together with Artos," Ilassa added with a smile before giving out an unimpressed gesture. "After that, they got married before my big idiot sister mounted an invasion out of jealousy."
"Huh, so that means you fought along with Artos." Ash guessed before the Lilim nodded honestly in reply. "But why did you take their side instead of the Demon Lord?"
"Hah~ well, I had a complicated family business once I heard my sister is invading Gaul. By the gods, that was already eighty years ago," Ilassa groaned in annoyance once an image of the 2nd-Borne Lilim appeared in her memories. "In fact, they're all hypocritical idiots and lacking common sense about the meaning of coexistence between monsters and humans; thus they think converting a neutral nation is a good idea."
Thus, Ilassa continued with a frown on her face. "Tsk, I can't go back to that idiot mother of mine who adores my sisters, who are willingly converting nations without giving humans a chance to change themselves for the better."
"It... sounds like you have terrible memories with the Demon Lord," Sasha spoke up with a sympathetic look. "I mean, you are Ilassa, the rumored Lilim who ruled Arum Sedis of the Southern Deserts. But how did you get yourself to the bad side of your family?"
"Well, obviously; I didn't agree with them in the first place and I left them by giving them the finger," Ilassa replied with a hint of pride in her voice. "Thus I can never forget that it was Artos' fault for inspiring me to be a decent ruler of Arum Sedis, and yet I still followed his words. Now that place is no longer a green demon realm, but an ordinary region like a human realm. A kingdom where there is an international trading hub for the five factions."
"The five factions?" Olivier raised her eyebrows. "I've heard those words mentioned by the scholars. Yet the rumors about them are complete myths."
"Ah, what if I told you they were real and now standing beside you? Then you must be new to this subject," Ilassa realized the curious look on Olivier. "Those are groups and families that the Mamono deeply feared more than the Order of the Chief God."
"The five factions... hmm, wait, does that involve Arcturus' family," Sasha spoke up curiously while Elaine and Gerome raised their eyebrows. "And then there's Junayd; a Swordsman of Carthus, then those three individuals from Mirrah from which I've seen them around the town. They all have a connection with each other... wait, does that mean..."
"Yes, those kinds of people," Ilassa nodded with a smirk before looking at Oliviers' incredulous expressions. "Astora, Carthus, Mirrah, the Clan of Alonne in the Blue Mountains of Zipangu, and Vinheim. They're a small alliance that brought fear to the Demon Lord for almost a century."
`Vinheim... That's a place where the most talented Sorcerors come from in my world...' Ash widened his eyes in surprise. 'So they were here as well... Now it is probably taken over by their descendants to fill up their roles.'
"N-no way..." Olivier felt her jaw dropped. "Then wait, so that means they aren't just legends but real people!?"
Ilassa nodded until Sasha speaks up to the Lescatian Musketeer. "I had the same thoughts as you when I first heard about them."
"Thus those guys who stood beside you, their grandfather," Ilassa then points, showing her index finger for Olivier to the three Knights. "Is the legendary Artos who defeated the Lilim during the invasion of Gaul, eighty years ago."
"Huh... It feels like my mind couldn't process anymore..." Olivier deadpanned with disbelief before turning to Sasha. "I mean... they belong to a family of heroes?"
"According to Arcturus and Gerome's account, their grandfather wasn't a Hero in the first place and started as an adventurer," Sasha recalled their tales. "He was a warrior with extraordinary skills without having blessings given by the Gods. He defeated the 2nd-Borne while he isn't a Hero yet before the people see him as one after the invasion."
"Th-That's hard to believe! No ordinary warrior can defeat a monster such as her, a Lilim!" Olivier spoke out loud while pointing her finger to Ilassa, her reaction amused much to Lilim. "How can you believe such fabricated stories so easily? What if they were actual lies?"
"Well... why won't you ask Ash?" Sasha replied meekly. "He's an extraordinary warrior who "claimed" himself that he isn't a Hero. Yet he slew a God."
"Hogwash, I don't buy it!" Olivier growled while eyeing Ash. But the Knight didn't reply and silently hearing the conversation. "Look, you-"
"Just drop this talk and get over with," Ash spoke blatantly with a deadly aura which caused Olivier to reel back in surprise and horror that made her silent. "Now let's get back to the topic of why you were here? Since you don't want to cause harm and wanted to meet me, are you trying to tell me a message; some sort of warning?"
"To answer your question frankly... Yes. The Demon Lord and the Monster Gods are now aware of the Fallen God's death." Ilassa, while looking down with a scowl. "Both sides were planning to send their divine adherents and married monster hero agents to eliminate you, Ash Cyrus. They now see you as a hindrance, bringing their so-called "Perfect World" into ruins."
...
...
"What!? A mortal killed the Fallen God!?" Bastet's eyes grew wide in disbelief. "How can that be!?"
"This should be impossible..." Poseidon clenched the arms of her seat. "This man needs to be eliminated before our plans for a peaceful world will go for naught!"
"But this human... he's difficult to find, like the outworlder's descendants," Hel spoke solemnly with grief. "After that incident, I get no further insights of their Fates."
"Yet... who is that human?" Poseidon grits her teeth as she seethes before looking up at the two monster gods, her eyes now filled with fury. "I need to know his name... and he shall pay for what he did to our ally."
Hel and Bastet shuddered to see the Goddess of the Seas emit a wrathful aura. The Goddess of Life and Death took a deep breath before she speaks up to his name.
"That man... his name is.."
...
...
"Ash Cyrus?" Ares spoke his name casually before exhaling in pity. "I see. Then that fool of a Goddess didn't saw what was coming."
"Don't you feel any sorrow for the Fallen God?" Eros spoke up, saddened when she heard the fate of the depraved Goddess. "That God was promoting love for her adherents. Yet I don't see why he killed her... maybe... was there a reason?"
"Probably, but I'm too drunk to think of words for this conversation." Bacchus slurred as she almost drops her golden goblet filled with wine. "At least Ares is very lucky."
Ares raised her brow. "Just... what are you talking about, Bacchus?"
"Huh... you didn't get my point, blockhead." Bacchus mocked mischievously. "You got your ass kicked twice in a row by two mortals throughout the previous century. First, that one guy from Carthus who almost killed you in a fight, and then the second, there's Artos, and once again; you were defeated in a duel. That was humiliating! Hahahaha!"
Ares then groaned in frustration before she pouts her cheeks like an unsatisfied spoiled child while crossing her arms. "Well, at least I'm not the same person from before and I gave them a right to fight back for whatever I care for!... Back then, I never knew they have a dangerous potential to kill Gods, so I leave them as they wished."
"Yeah... and now there's the Fallen God. She literally takes it to the extreme more than you." Bacchus then looks down with a smile, yet it does not emit with mischief, but out of sorrow. "Who knew the stubborn Dark God herself would underestimate that Outworlder. But her actions were not up to our expectations..."
"Indeed... with her death, I felt that this world... no longer needed us," Ares uttered as the Gods expressed their saddened expressions. "We live long... but we aren't immortal, we're just powerful until the day... they came."
"... To think about it... does the world still need us?" Eros asked, worrying about the future. "If the people no longer worship us and left forgotten?"
"Well... we'll live long as we can until the day we decide where we die." Ares sighed before looking up to the heavenly skies in reminiscence. "The Oracle of Sindria was right after all... one day, the Gods will no longer rule the world."
"I believe we should apologize to her..." Bacchus said while twirling her goblet before sighing. "Ha~ah! These thoughts about us to be forgotten in the future felt so depressing... maybe I should learn how mortals live when our time is up."
...
...
"I see..." Ash replied to Ilassa before raising a brow. "But why are you so eager to help us out?"
"Didn't I tell you earlier that I wasn't buying any bullshit from my mom?" Ilassa crossed her arms with an annoyed expression while rolling her eyes. The Lilim take a long sigh before speaking. "When I was young, I listened to the story about the Oracle of Sindria. A legend tells that one day, the world no longer needed the Gods and a new era is about soon to take place. Then my mom laughed about it that the oracle's prophecy wouldn't come true."
"So I grew up and having different thoughts, unlike Druella who's a fanatic, the Queen of Hearts who's a depraving shape-shifting loli, and Mari who like to convert human nations without care. But I believe in true coexistence of Monster and Humans while being a ruler of Arum Sedis." Ilassa continued before looking down, Sasha then sees her face grew uncomfortable. "But... I was a monster like my sisters and any other... including my mom. I thought I was doing good and decide that humans converting themselves into monsters, for whatever they please, felt great... until I meet Artos and his friends... then one day, we found out about Artos's hidden ability that can let me connect to the spiritual cores of monsterized humans and I saw... the truth."
At this moment, Sasha and Ash felt their eyebrows raised when Ilassa speak in a tone out of spite until Olivier asked. "The truth?"
"Yes, I've seen it, and it made me sick... when humans were transformed into monsters and incubus, their inner desires locked up their humanity, regardless of their moral compass... Oh, thank you." Ilassa paused for a moment just before Sieglinde came by with her tea. She blew the hot tea for a while before drinking it, keeping her composure to relax. Then continued. "Their humanity was locked in some form of an eternal dream... a prison worse than death. It brought them into a dream-like reality, an illusion where a world favors them. Not aware that their true selves were already monsters... and I just thought that monsterized humans said that they still keep their humanity... until that day I learned the truth, I realized those are nothing more but lies coming out from their mouths. Those were different souls and not the same person, they were born out from their monstrous desires and mimicking themselves under their skins... like humans."
"And you thought yourself that you were making things great?" Ash asked before Ilassa nodded as her eyes shed tears of regrets. "I see... so that's the reason you never side with the Demon Lord and decide to work with his grandfather."
"But how did they let you see into their spiritual core?" Sasha asked, gaining sympathy for the Lilim.
"Artos... he connected me with physical contact along with a monsterized woman," Ilassa answered. "In order to see their inner cores of their spirit, one must be of outsider blood and the other must be a mamono of the Demons Lord's blood. We tried to connect it with other people, whether it be humans of the Chief God's System or other mamono without royal blood. Yet it didn't work. Only Artos, my other comrades who have similar blood like his, then along with me were able to do it together."
"Huh, now that's why Gramps and Grandma are so cheerful to see you," Arcturus comments with a smile. "It seems learning the truth made you rewrite your choices."
"Indeed, we were just noble friends along with my old comrades back in the old days which I had never experienced before as a Lilim." Ilassa smiled back before taking a small sip of her tea. "After that day I learned the truth... never again I would let any humans monsterize themselves, regardless if it's the choice of their desires. I let them be who they truly are and be free by themselves... and not putting themselves in their own prison."
"Ohh~ I'm so moved~!" Sasha looked back and saw Jennifer cried out with tears out of sympathy before Sieglinde came with a pack of tissues. "Who knew that a royal mamono would have a sympathy for us humans!"
"It looks like... not every monster is the same..." Ash moves his gaze to Olivier, who shared the same sympathetic look with Ilassa. "But... I'm not sure who I will side with? I was aware of the Order in Lescatie was corrupt and I have a wish to weed out their corruption, others told that siding with the Demon Lord is great... however..."
"Neither of them was great," Ilassa said admittedly to Olivier. "There were no truths to see who are the good side... so we have to solve it by ourselves."
"Jeez, that story was depressing to hear... even though, those actually happened." Elaine sighed before raising her Siegbrau. "While I feel depressed about it, I'm having another drink..."
"EVERYONE!"
Suddenly, a man rushed through the doors of the restaurants, catching the attention of every guest in the building.
"Th-There's are Zombies coming into town!" The man yelled frantically in fear. "Pl-Plus there are Zombie Dragons among them! Quick! Call Siegward!"
"Sieglinde, call your father," Jennifer said to her daughter while wiping off her tears with a tissue. "The town's getting rowdy outside."
Her daughter nodded in response before Ash looks down at Sasha and nudged her shoulders.
"Looks like we have to help him out," Ash said to the former priestess. "Would you like to help me out too?"
"You're not going out alone without us," Arcturus spoke up of a sudden with pride while standing up. "In the case of Zombies Dragons, we're likely to blitz them out from the skies."
"And me." Junayd approached Arcturus from behind while stretching his arms. "I would also provide assistance and my sword behind me is desperately seeking action."
"Don't forget that we're here too," Elen called out while landing off from the wooden beams and silently landed beside Reginald. "Out from this boredom looks like it will be an interesting day!"
Thus, from the kitchen, Siegward stepped out with a massive club on his shoulder. Olivier felt her spine shudder to see an Onion Knight wielding a giant weapon like it was a feather.
"Well! Looks the crew is set!" Siegward spoke up jovially. "Are you all willing to help me out?"
Ash stood for a moment of silence as if he had a nostalgic feeling sprawled across his memories. That time where he once worked in the Astoran Military in his past life, where he had a bond with other soldiers until Sasha then looks up to him and saw his face had an indecisive reaction like he doesn't know how to respond.
"Ash?" The Knight turns his gaze to her. "Are you alright?"
Then Ash blinked and snapped out from his thoughts, he turned to Siegwards and nods. "Yes, we decide to help you out."
"Also, don't forget me~!" Ash and Sasha turned to Ilassa and they were surprised that she waved her hand. "I would also like to help~!"
Sasha then flabbergasts in surprise. "Wait... she's also helping us?"
"Don't worry, she's unlike any mamono," Junayd said with a confidential thumbs up. "I know what she wants... After all, she's one of our allies."
"Alright, then let's head out."
Once Ash declared, the group walked out of the restaurant before they heard screams of civilians running away from the main road. Ash then saw Sif with the orphans riding on the back of the great wolf, had approached in front of the restaurant after he had leaped from the rooftops to one another and landed in front of them, thus bringing the orphans to safety as the children disembarked from the great wolf.
The children wept as they went for their big sister and the Knight, then two orphan girls went to the priestess while tugging her blue kirtle.
"Sasha!"
"Lisia, Emiyu!" Sasha kneeled before hugging the two orphan girls. "I'm so glad all of you are safe!"
"Sif, what's the situation?" Ash asked the Greatwolf.
"It appears the mamono barged through the gates like a massive horde," Sif replied while unsheathing his sword.
Out from the group, Ilassa saw a massive mob of zombies and a few Dragon Zombies fly in the skies, then a smoke appeared before the mob and a Wight arose from the ground while Ilassa stood unamused once she sees the Wight's face, and at the same time, the Wight scowled at the Lilim.
"Ilassa." The Wight growled. "Are you here to protect this pathetic town that has brought shame to your family's history?"
"Well, if it isn't Aedra. The Daughter of the Atrea, the Northern Wight," Ilassa said with a challenging tone as if she never cared the Wights words. "I never thought her younger daughter would strike on a weak settlement like Gerth. Let me guess, bringing vengeance for her?"
"This settlement marks where the humiliation of the Second-Born took place and you still didn't care one bit of your sister!" Aedra sneered before raising her hand as if she were commanding the undead horde. "I planned this place to make it mine to bring back the 2nd-Borne's honor so that Druella can be satisfied with its defilement! But I never thought I would meet you here again, traitor of the Demon Realm."
"Looks like we have to shut that mouth of hers, don't we agree?" Ash asked Ilassa before she replied with a nod. "Great, now let us give them this town's welcoming."
