She couldn't believe that she was in the human realm, much less standing outside of the famous Devil May Cry building, talking to the human female, Nico.

She had originally gone out to just get some fresh air, too used to her family's manor that the much smaller building was nearly suffocating, never mind the small room she had to share with her brother. Not that she minded sharing with him but sleeping in the small area he had claimed as his own couldn't be comfortable in the least.

Nico had spotted her and invited herself over for a conversation. At first Aspasia found the human's presence nothing less than annoying, but gradually she started to relax around her. Before she knew it, the two of them were talking about potential weapons Nico could make for both her and her brother.

For a human, she was well informed.

Sometime during their conversation, Aspasia felt something odd at the back of her head, almost as if she were being watched. Frowning to herself, Aspasia looked up to the nearest window. All she saw was a human-like silhouette and the next second it was out of view.

S he didn't need to be a demon to know who exactly it had been.
