Shido, Gallows and Sofia walked in the long corridor leading to Yamigedo resting place. They had been summoned by Gratos.
"I still can't believe there's something there," the boy commented.
The darkness dragon rolled his purple eyes, "We know that. You said that every time we come here."
Sofia sighed and accelerated her pace, "Enough you two. We will likely get our next mission from Gratos."
They nodded and kept going forward.
Shido wanted to ask something, but knowing where they were, he decided to wait for later. When they were away from Gratos ears, if he even had those, "It could have ended badly last time. That Igneel caused such a rampage."
"There was a risk of Gao's awakening his Future Force," she admitted.
"I still don't get why the hairs grow longer when someone uses it. It weird me out."
The humans raised their shoulders.
"You came here quickly," the skeleton demon said as he joined them.
"Of course. We are here to serve Yamigedo," Sofia replied.
The monster nodded as he turned around, "Follow me."
"So, Yamigedo already managed to get back to his giant form?" Shido asked.
"That for now."
"For now? Sha. Sha," the monster wondered.
"Our master needs to be more powerful if he wants to challenge the Omni Lords. With our current track record, they might regroup all of them to stand against our master," Gratos frowned at their predicament.
"We cannot underestimate the Buddy Police Forces," Sofia warned him.
"The other problem is that we don't have an infinite amount of demons, just 100 totals. We already lost a few of them and we cannot keep going that path," the second in command of the demon's faced the darkness dragon. His eyes shined, "And Gallows. Are you interested in gaining much more power to challenge anyone? If you serve Yamigedo as a replacement, you will be unstoppable."
The dragon gasped as he waved his hands and went behind his buddy, "Nononono. Sha. Sha! I am not interested in this kind of servitude again. Too much trouble with Azi Dahaka! And the track records of the demons don't make it appealing at all. Sha."
The boy finally reacted and stepped on the side, "Don't hide behind me!" he didn't forget what the monster made him go through.
"You are already serving Yamigedo. Imagine the power. Anything that once stood in your way will be gone."
Gallows played with his claws, "What stands in my way isn't what you think," he discreetly gazed at his buddy.
"Anyway," the skeleton monster opened the door leading to Yamigedo.
The group walked in and stopped when they saw a giant gray cocoon, like the one's a big made.
"Yamigedo needs to be hidden until he achieved greater power. So, we need to make sure the Omni Lords doesn't find out where he is hiding. Failing to that will result in your death," Gratos warned them.
"O-of course!" Shido nervously replied.
Sofia nodded.
What will come out of that? The three wondered fearfully. They knew Yamigedo was already as strong as Azi Dahaka, but now, it would be more. Their mission turned out to get worse and worse. Especially at the prospect that failures meant their doom.
Episode 32: Rock and Magic
Three days passed since the battle against the demons. All of the demons had been captured and they could enjoy some quiet time. It was an intense day, but it wasn't a big troublesome one.
Tetsuya sighed as he put his headphone, "It's so quiet now yo."
"I know. After four demons attacking, suddenly nothing for now. I'm certain they want us to drop our guards," Asmodai agreed.
"I felt like we were on the sideline that time yo. Terumi really wrecked that demon with Medusa," he let out a small grin.
"She is quite capable," the pink demon replied.
The boy opened his cellphone. He randomly searched for any news related to music as they continued talking, "Do you know about the Cavalry Dragons? Maybe that will help Gao."
"Gao already got two of the seven to join him. That is some good news for us. I was expecting to take much more time before the first one showed up and put some faith in Drum," he replied.
Tetsuya asked, "Do you have anyone by your side like Tenbu and Drum?"
"Nope. I was a solo Omni lord from Magic World. My predecessor didn't have anyone accompanied him either. I just followed his lead when I took his place."
The boy thought about it and asked, "And-"
"I did have many friends, but when I became an Omni Lord, I had to leave them. My simple presence would put them in danger. No one knew I was the Omni Lord, but news could travel fast," he sighed, "I rather not have the weight of that duty on my shoulders."
That's why you didn't really want to talk about it, the boy understood that. His buddy wanted to be himself, but his status could change everything, "Did you hide things from them too yo?"
"Yeah. I have a bad demon habit of doing that. I am a liar when I want to be. I do wonder if they are still alive and what they became," he shook his head, "But I'm not trying too much to think about it."
The boy let out a small smile, "There is a group of musicians doing a small concert in two days and there are still some tickets we can obtain yo," he showed the screen to his buddy, "And look, they all come from Magic World."
"I hope we will able to dance to their awesome music. Magic World! I wasn't expecting anyone to expand their music to earth and-" he said nothing else when he saw the picture. His pink skin lightly paled when he saw who it was, "Now that I think about it, maybe we shouldn't go. The demons might attack at any time. What if they really need our help like last time?"
The boy thought about it and replied, "We'll just leave on the spot yo. I'll let my phone opened. If we disturb everyone, I'll apologise later."
Asmodai sighed, "Okay," he didn't insist or he would be suspicious. He'll deal with his old friend later. He regretted bringing that up, because his past reappeared as son as he said anything about them to his buddy. Or he had terrible luck.
Two days passed and Asmodai was getting really nervous. It wasn't because he might see his old friend soon and had to endure a verbal punishment. If not more. It was the inactivity of Yamigedo. The Fiend would have sent evil demons already, but he didn't. It wasn't like they were back of an attack per week. It was obviously to put their defense down or to exhaust them by always keeping their guards up. He crossed his arms as they waited in line to go to the concert.
"Thanks for inviting us," Terumi said with them.
The Omni Lord forgot about them for a second. Tetsuya got four tickets for Terumi and Medusa too. The gorgon was in her SD form, a smaller and cuter version of herself. Looking a little like a child.
"Nice idea for a date Tetsuya," he whispered to his buddy.
The boy blushed at the mention and replied, "It's not a date yo."
"We appreciate the invitation," Medusa nodded, giving a glance at the Omni Lord.
"I honestly wasn't expecting monsters from Magic World to put a show on our world that quickly. I thought I would be a mother before it happened," the girl smiled. Her face turned red as a tomato as she mentioned that and gazed at the side, adjusting her glasses, "Don't laugh."
"I won't yo," Tetsuya replied.
"Good," she nodded, satisfied.
The line was slowly advancing.
"Anything about them?" Medusa asked, not specifying she brought up the Great Fiend and his demons.
"Nothing," the boy's buddy replied.
"It is worrisome. After so much damage, they are suddenly quiet," she commented. The girl crossed her arms and was pensive about it.
"They did use more than usual. They don't have infinite of them. They will use them more cautiously from now on," Asmodai seriously concluded.
"It's always weird me out to see your buddy that serious," Terumi commented.
"Me too yo," the other human replied.
"Asmodai is an Omni Lord. Maybe he is a little too focused on his duty," Medusa wondered.
"I'm right here you know. No need to talk at my back. I am facing you from the start, so you failed," the pink demon let out a small grin as his tail flipped the boy's cap in his hand. He made sure his buddy couldn't reach it, "I am indeed worry thought," he ignored his friend asking to give back his cap, "Honestly, I had a nightmare about my buddy getting seriously hurt, because I wasn't at my full power," he gave it back to his buddy and sighed, "I will need to get back to max power soon."
The three others gazed at the Omni Lord.
"We'll figure something out yo," the boy said with a reassuring smile.
"You aren't alone in this. You have us and everyone in the Buddy Police Force," Terumi reminded him.
"Yeah," he replied. His voice sounded a little distant for some reason.
Tetsuya wondered what his buddy was thinking right now. It did worry him a little.
They reached the entrance and offered their ticket, going inside to watch the concert. That problem could wait a little.
It was crowded. The four wondered if it was because the group was known or curiosity. Terumi searched on her cellphone about the group and noticed that they had release a few disks already. Tetsuya wasn't aware of it because he was busy with Yamigedo. She thought that if he loved the group, she would purchase on disk for him, it will be nice to thank him for the invitation, she let out a small smile.
Asmodai noticed the smile and wanted to tease her more. He didn't have time as they went into the main hallway, leading to the stage.
"I hope nothing bad will happen," Medusa quietly whispered. It was very crowded here and it would be extremely dangerous if an attack occurred.
The pink demon had to agree. He had his guard up in case something happened. A minute later, they took their place in front of the stage. Everyone could stand up in the front line to join the dance. That was exactly were the four went.
Terumi let out a large smile. She remembered the few times she went to a concert and couldn't dance because of her accident. That reminded her of what she did to get it back and Tetsuya support. A boy who she hated at first was someone she knew she could trust. The future was always full of surprise.
Meanwhile, Shido and Gallows were watching the building where the concert would be held. The boy had a demon on his hand with a red mark.
"What is it Shido? Sha. Sha," his buddy asked.
"We are going big today with one monster. He isn't like the other one who could control the mind at the museum," he frowned as he realised, he just casually talked to his buddy, the monster who ruined his father's life, "And shut up."
"Sha," the darkness dragon raised his shoulders and asked, "What is the plan? We better have one if this mission would end up as a success."
"It's simple, we go in there with the tickets and 'enjoy' the little concert. Sofia told me that she saw Asmodai and Tetsuya going in there. However, he was with Terumi and Medusa," he thought about a plan.
"You just want to fight one of them and not all of them as usual," the darkness dragon commented before adding his usual verbal tic.
"We always lose when outnumbered," the boy lightly frowned. He didn't want to test how much Gratos would be tolerant of their failures. He had to find a perfect way to defeat Asmodai.
The darkness dragon raised his shoulders and went in front of the boy, "And when would we strike?"
"We find Asmodai and we wait for a moment where he's isolated or vulnerable," Shido replied as they went into the building to enjoy the concert.
Asmodai waited for the group to come. He knew what would come soon when he would appear. He hoped he wouldn't break his focus if he noticed him. If not, it would be for the best. He had little hope. He was a pink demon and easily noticeable. That was especially the case where he was.
He crossed his arms and tapped the ground nervously. The crowd began to get excited when they saw the group from Magic World coming on stage. From one simple glances, he recognised one of the monsters.
It was a demon with pale pink skin, long blond hair, gray eyes, two pairs of small purple bat-like wings and two crimson wings on his head. He wore a gray suit and looked a little taller than the average human.
"It's has been a long time, Fallen Demon Lord, Rucifiel," Asmodai whispered with a nostalgic smile. If they ever crossed path, he would call him Lucy without hesitations.
The trio of demons took out their instruments and began the concert.
Asmodai recognised rock music when he heard it. It was more stylise than the type of music played on Earth, but he heard the human influence. It was something he couldn't explain to any humans, they wouldn't understand what he was talking about.
The concert went by and many people were dancing at the rhythm of the music. Terumi was a little less enthusiastic as it wasn't really her genre, but enjoyed it nonetheless. Tetsuya went full in.
The Omni Lord was still surprised that Rucifiel didn't saw him yet. A pink demon like him would stand out greatly, but they were more at the back, so he was less noticeable. If it kept going on like this, he wouldn't have to confront his old friend. He could already feel the pain if he was noticed.
However, he had been noticed by Shido and his buddy were observing the four.
"I hate this place. Sha. Sha," Gallows grumbled, hating the music. He thought that his brain might explode in his skull if this kept going on. He looked at his buddy whose head followed the rhythm of the tune while observing their targets.
"Well I like it. They really know how to make this place alive," he let out a small smile. He scratched his jaw as he wondered how to split the four and get Asmodai into a duel alone. He didn't want to use hostages. The first time he used a demon that way, he really disliked that. Freezing people to force a battle still turned his stomach sometimes.
After two hours, the concert came at an end. The afternoon was quickly passing by.
"Yo. I can't believe this is already over," Tetsuya sighed as the people began to slowly dispersed.
"You had too much fun and everything went quickly," Terumi replied with a small smile.
Rucifiel was about to leave the stage when he noticed a hint of pink standing out of the crowd. He looked more closely and recognised the clothes, "Asmodai?" he wondered as he saw the monster leaving with another one and two humans. He frowned. He looked at the others and said, "I have to go, I think I saw someone I once knew."
"Sure. Just don't take too much time. We have another concert tomorrow," one of the monsters replied.
Rucifiel nodded and went after the four, wondering if it was really Asmodai. He had a lot to vent on that pink demon, if it was him.
Shido and Gallows followed the four. They wondered how they should split them up to deal with Asmodai only. During the entire concert, the four remained a little too close to get one of them.
"The wait is horrible, sha," the darkness dragon crossed his arms and grumbled.
"Yeah. At this point, we are going to fail before even fighting them," the boy grew nervous. He searched for something, anything to split them up.
"I got an idea sha," the monster snickered.
The boy searched for any other options than giving some faith to his buddy. He sighed as there was nothing coming to him, "Fine. What is it?"
"We have to ambush them."
"That's what were trying to do," Shido forced himself not to snap at his buddy.
"An ambush to separate them. We have to strike first and force Terumi and Medusa to go elsewhere," Gallows suggested as he spin his clawed finger.
"Fine. How do you plan that?"
Asmodai felt like he could relax after being a little tense during the entire concert. He was so certain that Rucifiel would notice him and there would be drama and he'll have to explain everything to his buddy. The drama would be the worse thing to come. He didn't go to end up in such situation, so he made sure to keep quiet about it. The other thing that worried the Omni Lord was what the monster would have said. Tetsuya trusted him once again, but there was still a hint of doubt in the mind of his buddy. The demon could say a few things of his past that reawakened the doubt in his friend. Much quicker than before and it might never repair once again.
The other thing he didn't want was that they ended up in a battle against each other's. He had no intention of fighting his friend, even if that said friend attacked him for legitimate reason.
"Asmodai?" his buddy asked.
"Sorry. I was in deep thought," the pink demon replied.
"Is it about the bad guy yo?" Tetsuya asked.
"No. That concert brought up some memories. Good and bad," he replied, not wanting to share more of his personal life.
"Before or after you became an Omni Lord?"
"Before and after," he replied.
"Something that changed when you became an Omni Lord," Terumi got it. She gazed at the side and saw something, "Tetsuya. I'll be back soon. I got to check something," she walked away with her buddy.
"Guess we have to wait," he put his hands behind his back.
"Right," his buddy replied.
"Hello there Omni Lord," Death Shido said next to the boy, "Guess I didn't have to hurt your friends," he showed his skull and activated it.
"Damn. My plan cast aside like trash," Gallows complained.
Rucifiel saw the three disappeared as they went into the dark field. He remained on the side and crossed his arms, "Damn. What did you get into Asmodai?" he wondered. He frowned at the thought of his old friend leaving him behind for something and not telling him anything at all.
A few minutes later, Terumi and her buddy came back, "Tetsuya I got something for you-" she stopped and looked around, "Tetsuya?"
Medusa looked around and saw no signs of the boy or his buddy, "Where are they?"
"I know Tetsuya wouldn't leave like that."
"They were sent into some kind of creepy field," Rucifiel told them.
The girl frowned as she knew what he meant. She took out her cellphone and called Commander I, "Commander I. We got a situation."
Tetsuya and his buddy were ready to deal with any evil demons sent by Yamigedo. Death Shido took out his card and said, "I want to end this quickly. Master really want to see one of the Omni Lord dead. I would have preferred the new one, as he put my master in a horrible state. One that I won't pushed aside. I call you; Crush Execute Dragon, Zarrtelganger!"
He raised the card and summoned the demon out of it.
Zarrtelganger was a humanoid dragon with green scales, except for his pale-yellow underbelly, a long tail and a pair of golden horns and gray eyes. He wore two black shields with spikes, "I am ready to defeat any enemies of my master!" he raised his arms and let out a war cry.
"You sure you can beat that demon buddy?" Tetsuya asked his friend. They were on their own this time.
"I might have lost half of my power, but I can still handle a demon," the pink demon smirked as he approached the evil one, "Come at me Zarrtelganger!"
The dragon let out a war cry and charged, shield raised up. He tried to impale the Omni Lord must missed the target who simple jumped in the air. He grunted and used his tail to whip his enemy, but missed once again as the pink demon jumped on his tail.
Asmodai landed on the ground and rolled on the side when the demon charged forward. He countered with a kick but was blocked by one shield. Thankfully he didn't hit any of the spikes on it, "You're quick."
"I am here to avenge my master!" Zarrtelganger let out a war cry and tackled the Omni Lord. He was about to continue his assault when he was suddenly in the air and felt on the ground brutally.
"Magical Bye-Bye yo!" Tetsuya chuckled as he showed the spell he used.
The servant of Yamigedo grunted as he stood up, "Death Shido. I need your support to defeat those two."
"Sure," Death Shido.
Finally, a demon that showed some respect. They are pretty rare, Gallows commented before making a few 'sha'.
The two monsters continued their battle as they reached a temporary stalemate. None of them could overpowered the other. The punches and kicks flew around as none of them demons managed to hurt the other. The few spells that were casted were mostly used to attack or counter each other's humans.
Asmodai changed plan and charged forward. When the other demon did the same, shield raised, the Omni Lord smirked. Asmodai slid on the ground and passed under the demon. When he was at the other side, he gave a low kick and forced the other demon the kneel down. He followed up by grabbing the stomach of Zarrtelganger and did a suplex with everything he had. He jumped away and waited.
The evil demon quickly came out of the ground and grunted.
"You really have a hard head there," Asmodai commented.
"You think you can defeat me that easily Omni Lord?" the evil demon asked with a small grin on his face.
"Of course," the pink demon grinned. He charged forward and jumped over the demon. He avoided the attacks coming at him and the moment his feet touched the ground, he did a back flip and passed over Zarrtelganger once again, disorienting him. He followed with a kick on the back and sent him away.
The servant of Yamigedo quickly stood up and grunted in annoyance. He let out a war cry and charged.
Asmodai was a little nervous. He knew he was weaker when he lost half of his power, but not that much. It was even affecting his physical fighting ability, once this is over, I really have to find a way to reclaim my power back.
The battle continued while the two humans gave support to their buddies.
Tetsuya was growing a little nervous. His buddy was completely serious now. The boy knew there was a problem and if they didn't end the battle soon, it might be costly. He searched for the best spellcard he could use to end this fight quickly, but he still had to wait for the perfect chance to cast it. If it was blocked, it would be troublesome to cast it again. Even so, it might not need to be the best spell, just one that could turn this battle around. He found one. He just hoped that he could cast it at the right moment, just after Death Shido cast his own spell, he thought. That was the perfect time.
"Whatever plan you have Tetsuya, I hope they will regret it," the pink demon let out a small smirk.
"Sure yo!" the boy replied.
The two demons continued their battle continued. The two humans glared at each other's waiting to see who would be the first one to make a move.
Asmodai managed to hit the other demon a few times, but it was to little effect. He just managed to push the other demon away. He hated demon who were hard like that one. His fists were starting to hurt a little, "Are you made of rock or what?"
The demon let out yet another war cry and charged forward, shield raised.
The Omni Lord grabbed the longest spike of each shield and was pushed backward. He tried to push back, but the demon was overpowering him, bad idea. He grunted. Now he was certain that his strength went away with half of his power. He was as powerful as a monster from Magic World. Which was much less than other worlds, except the Earth, taking back my power is really getting urgent.
His back crashed against the wall. He continued trying to fight back, but the spikes of the shield were getting closer. He would be impaled if he couldn't get out of this situation.
"Magical Bye-Bye Yo!" his buddy yelled.
The evil demon disappeared and felt from the air. He landed on his feet this time. Zarrtelganger glared at the human.
"Thanks for the save buddy."
"No problem. We got to end this soon yo," the boy with banana in his hair said a little nervously.
The Omni Lord knew he couldn't block anything. He had to dodge and to counter with everything he had. The battle must end quickly or it was over.
The demon dodged the attacks coming at him and the battle was in a stalemate for now. Tetsuya carefully watched both the fight and Death Shido. He waited and waited for the perfect moment to cast it.
Death Shido cast an offensive spell and Tetsuya saw his chance, "Asmodai! Dodge yo!"
The pink demon dodged the spell and the demon who attacked him.
"Great Spell, Deus EX Machina!" Tetsuya casted.
There was energy building up in the air as white light was concentrating in one spot. The pink demon gazed at it and whispered, "You're going all out buddy."
The battle had exhausted the boy as he kneeled down. The energy quickly blasted on Zarrtelganger and it blew out.
The smoke covered the field and no one could see what was going on in the battle. They could only wait and see if the spell was powerful enough to finish the demon off.
The boy and his buddy prayed that it was enough.
Something came out of it and before Asmodai could react, he was brutally tackled and was sent against the wall. He barely managed to avoid being impaled. He was bitten on the shoulder and painfully grunted.
"And here we are!" the voice of a girl suddenly said above. Tetsuya looked above and saw Paruko and her buddy Takosuke appeared in the dark arena.
A gray monster stood behind the servant of Yamigedo.
"I think it's time for you to release my ally," the monster who came used his clawed hands to force the dragon to open his mouth.
"Demios," Asmodai said.
Demios nodded and opened the mouth of the evil demon, "This battle is over!"
Death Shido gasped when someone grabbed his hand.
Tasuku was behind the boy and said, "And you are under arrest for attempted murder on Asmodai."
Demios grabbed his neck around the other dragon's neck and pressed on it. He avoided anything the other demon tried at him. The darkness dragon continued until the servant of the Great Fiend couldn't fight anymore before knocking him out for good.
Death Shido wondered what to do. It was over now that Tetsuya was sealing the demon.
Use my strength and escape now Shido! Gallows ordered. Quickly!
The boy in the armor swung his arm and sent Tasuku in the air.
The blue-haired boy used his buddy skill to stabilise himself.
"Tasuku!" Demios grunted before charging at Death Shido.
"I'm sorry, but I have to make my leave," Death Shido said before teleporting away.
The dark field was slowly disappearing.
"We did it yo," Tetsuya sighed in relief.
"You guys came just in time," the pink demon let out a small grin.
"You should thank Paruko and Takosuke. They teleported us in the field when she could. Thought it seems to ask a lot of energy for the four of us at the same time," the darkness dragon commented.
"Yeah," Asmodai nodded. He was in his mind as the field went away, it would have been less problematic if I could stand this battle on my own, but I couldn't. That demon was too powerful in brute force, he checked his hands, I have to claim my power soon. It's risky, but I have no choice.
The moment they were back, Terumi and Medusa came to them.
"You're back!" the girl said relieved.
"Sorry we couldn't help you. Tasuku was faster," her buddy said.
Tetsuya showed the sealed monster, "Thanks to them. We are out of trouble yo."
Paruko and her buddy waved at them.
"Thanks, yo!" the boy waved back at them.
"You two really came at the last second," Asmodai commented, crossing his arms in relief.
"We were only doing our duty Asmodai. They weren't expecting us, so we managed to get the monster by surprise," Demios replied.
Tasuku nodded and added with frustration, "But Death Shido escaped once again."
"That wasn't the strength of a human," the dark dragon commented. He did notice his buddy sending far away.
"So, he wasn't a human to begin with yo," the boy with banana in his hair sighed.
Terumi sighed, "We left you two alone for a minute and he attacked you," she crossed her arms and wondered, "How did they even knew you would be here?"
"Maybe they saw us by chance when they were in disguise. They could be more of them and aren't even aware of it," Medusa guessed.
They didn't take this the good way. It made them feel a little paranoid of what might come next. They looked at each other's and decided to return home.
"Asmodai," a voice said.
The pink demon froze, before slowly turning around, "H-hey Rucifiel."
"You know him yo?" Tetsuya asked.
He nodded, "I didn't want to bring him up."
"You didn't change," the other demon grunted. He sighed and replied, "I won't annoy you any longer 'old friend'. That will be another time."
The Omni Lord was a little relief to deal with all of this. Still, he had higher priority and getting back his full power was above his old friend. He knew his friend didn't view him as a friend anymore.
"I am in town for a week. We have a few more days before we leave Tokyo," Rucifiel gazed at Tetsuya, "I will appreciate if you visit me," he let out a small smile to the boy, "They are a few things you should know about our friend."
Asmodai already saw the danger. It was clear that his friend was bitter about the past, he's good at hiding his venom.
The others frowned as they didn't know what to do.
Demios asked, "Is that all?"
Rucifiel replied, "Yes. I saw Asmodai and tried to reach him. He left two friends behind," he turned towards Terumi and her buddy, "I don't know why. It is a little typical of him."
Tetsuya frowned, but didn't reply. He wouldn't jump to conclusion, "When do you have time?"
"Maybe in three days in the morning. I will be waiting at the entrance," the demon replied.
The Omni Lord wanted to say something funny or a bit of sarcasm, but it was a terrible idea.
"Sure," the boy replied as he looked at his buddy, letting a small smile.
The pink demon knew that he will try to get an answer out of him first. It was something he didn't really bring up.
"We should go," Tasuku said as the group turned around and walked away.
The day was coming to an end and they had a report to make.
Once the report was done, Tetsuya, Terumi, Medusa and Asmodai were returning home.
The girl was searching for something in her pocket. She hesitated a little, as it was the reason why her friend was ambushed by Death Shido. Terumi sighed, there was no right time and it was better now that later, when she might forget.
"Tetsuya," she held what was in her pocket and showed it, "This is a little gift, for bringing us to the concert."
"Thanks, yo," he replied before even looking at it.
The two humans face turned red.
The two monsters lightly facepalm at the boy's reaction.
"Euh," she was about to get frustrated when the boy finally looked at what she offered him.
"Awesome!" Tetsuya smiled was bigger when he saw it was a disk containing the music made by the group. He will love to hear it again.
"Why were you excited before even knowing what I gave you?" she asked him.
"Because you were giving me something. It was really nice."
"That was for bringing me here, to this concert. Iiiii had to pay you back," she replied.
The two chuckled and their face was redder than before.
Medusa and Asmodai gazed at each other's.
"It's going to take a while before they confess… Isn't it?" she asked.
"Yup. They are still young and shy. It would be their first," the pink demon replied.
Once everything was over, they gave their good-bye's and the two returned home. Asmodai dreaded the day his buddy would meet with his old friend, but he won't stop it. He had something more important to do now.
AC: This is the end of this episode. I hope you enjoyed it.
Next: Away From The Hero Path.
The Dark Hero returns with his buddy and is after Ziun for his Omni Lord Emblem.
