Meanwhile,
Juin's group was fighting against the seven remaining demons, killing them off one by one, when they suddenly opened a portal and disappeared into them.
"What…" Luca asked while panting significantly. Those demons were not that strong, but they could not afford to release huge wave of soul power. Doing so might attract unwanted attention. Hence, for the last 30 minutes or so, they had mostly been advancing two steps and retreating one step.
They had to rely on Cyrus, who was the only one capable of killing without using Soul Power, thus dragging the fight longer.
"Something must have happened to their leaders…" Cyrus mumbled as he wiped his bloodied claws on the shirt of one of the dead demons.
"Ignore that…" Juin said as he wiped the blood off a cut on his face while panting softly. He looked at Wolfe, who was standing there quietly. "Wolfe, are you alright?"
