During the Dark Ages

I rejoined the battle quickly to aid Synthia and the saints in dealing with the remaining Greater Imps…..but mostly to get some exp. The battle raged for hours as the streets were dyed in the blood of both holy and unholy creatures as they fought against each other fiercely. The battle would have ended a lot sooner if I wasn't forced to carry wounded priests and those whose energy was depleted back to the mansion over and over again. To be honest, the priests weren't really a big help as they merely served as a distraction for the Greater imps barely doing them any harm.

"Haha, finally they are all dead." I said as the last of the Greater imps fell to the ground dead. I have to say, these guys were a tenacious bunch and even when they were on the brink of death they didn't back down, I had to admire them for that.

[Name: Alice

I had managed to kill six of the remaining fifteen Greater imps, which gave me a generous amount of exp allowing me to level up twice.

"My holy warriors!!" Synthia suddenly shouted as she floated a bit above ground with the aid of her wings. The remaining twenty or so priests gathered in front of her while Claire and the others stood beside her and I stood to the side leaning on a former building now a pile of rubble.

"Tonight we have expunged the evil that tried to destroy us, but it came at a great cost. We have lost many of our comrades, friends, loved ones….family. So tonight, we mourn our fallen brethren and tomorrow we celebrate our victory." Synthia said and raised her sword into the air and the priests cheered. But amidst those cheers, a scoff echoed and I could see a frown form on Synthia's face and her eyelid twitch.

"My lady, I would have to disagree with you. Not all evil has been expunged from the city." The man said, before he looked over in my direction, and soon all eyes turned to me.

'Fuck.' I thought, my wings twitching as I prepared to leave at any moment

"What are you insinuating? Alice has helped us immensely during the battle and she has saved many lives including yours." Synthia said, her eyes glowed slightly and her face became darker and darker by the second.

"Kyle, what are you doing?" Kirt asked in a low voice, a frown on his face

'So this asshole's name is Kyle, huh.' I thought, marking him as I held back the urge to growl.

"She's a demon and aren't we supposed to kill demons, is that not what you taught us." He said with a smirk on his face. The other priests also started to murmur in agreement, which pissed me off even more. I have helped all of these bastards and now they want to turn on me just because I'm a Demon. Seriously.

'Lesson learnt. If I survive this I swear I'll never help these little bastards again.' I swore in my mind.

"In fact there is another Demon in the city and we've all seen how dangerous he can be. How long until they turn on us And when they do, how many more of us will survive?" He said and I could feel the hate, malice and rage in his voice. If he was acting, then this was an Oscar worthy performance.

'So that's it, this bastard wants revenge, but I don't remember doing anything to this guy.' I thought, racking my mind as I tried to remember if I've ever even seen this guy before

"Brothers and sisters, let's expunge the Demon while she is weakened, before she can reap the lives of more of our loved ones." The man, Kyle, said now standing in front of the group of priests as he pulled his sword from it's scabbard and pointed it towards me. The other priests roared and pulled out their weapons and turned towards me, but I didn't feel threatened in the slightest. Although I may have been weakened, so were they, in fact, they were even more weakened than I was with most of their energy depleted and some being wounded. The only reason their head was still on their bodies was because Synthia and the other four were still here. Even if Synthia and the other four were to join in on this little crusade, I could simply use [Shadow Cloak] to slip away and Synthia won't be able to chase after me since she wouldn't be able to track me with [Aura Vision] and she is way too exhausted to hunt me down. But judging by the furious expression on her face, I doubt I will have to resort to such action.

"I have had enough of your bullshit. Kirt get your friend under control before I…." But she never got to complete her sentence as the surroundings seemed to become a shade darker and everyone around me started shivering, not from cold, but a fear, extreme fear originates from the soul. The priests soon started falling to their in fear and Kyle in particular seems to be feeling it the worse as he fell to the ground, curling up into a ball. Even the Demon miasma around me seems to be in turmoil as they churned and twisted more chaoticly than usual.

"Oh, it seems that I've arrived just in time. Let's see which one of you dare to hurt Alice in my presence." Said a masculine voice filled with malice and barely contained rage.
