Chapter 47 - Bal Bal

Crowley- Been a while since we left. Just a little longer until we reach.

Henry- I think we should contact her now.

HENRY INFUSED HIS SOURCE'S POWER INTO THE COMMUNICATION SPELL.

Henry- Sera?

Sera- Henry! It worked. I'm guessing you guys reached?

Crowley- Little longer until we reach. Also it's working but it's a bit distorted which means it might cut any minute now.

Sera- It's still a working progress.

Henry- How's Brook Sera?

Sera- I was able to reach inside.

CROWLEY LAUGHS

Sera- Uhh he's doing some kind of trial thing so it might be a while until he wakes up. I'm trying my best to keep him steady but I'm almost at my limit.

Henry- Well we'll try our best too. Ju-

SIGNAL CUTS

Henry- Sera?

Crowley- That's the max of her abilities right now. It's impressive. Now let's go up that mountain.

Henry- I wonder why people don't climb the mountains. Do they not want to see the person who has been protecting them for centuries.

Crowley- There's a certain type of magic covering the entire area. It's a very unique type of magic. Only a handful of people ever mastered it but many uses it as a basic magic spell. They simply use it for strategic purposes.

Henry- I'm sensing strange magic indeed but I can't pinpoint the exact location.

Crowley- It's everywhere. Of course you can't get the exact location. Right now that particular magic is being used as a sensory spell.

Henry- It can tell exactly where we are.

LOUD CRYING NOISE

Henry- Okay what the fuck was that?

Crowley- It's a cry.

Henry- No shit. Let's go before the fog thickens.

Crowley- There's a graveyard up ahead. We can wait there until sunrise.

HENRY LOOKS AT CROWLEY

Crowley- What?

Henry- You wanna wait in a graveyard? In the night? Weird.

Crowley- What? How?

Henry- You're really asking how? You wanna stay at a graveyard. Normal people don't do that shit.

Crowley- 1st thing, I'm not a "normal person" I'm the King Of Hell. 2nd thing. It's the only good place right now but we can go further and encounter something and die. Well you might die, not me.

Henry- We'll stay at the graveyard.

HENRY TOOK A FEW STEPS INTO THE GRAVEYARD AND STEPPED ON SOMETHING

Henry- What did I crush? What did I crush? Please tell me it's not bones. Please say it's not bones.

Crowley- Urm it's a human that died and their flesh rotted away?

Henry- Asshole!

HENRY CHANTED "SENTILIUM"

HENRY CAST A LIGHT SPELL

Henry- Gah.

Crowley- This is where the poor souls died. It's a pity.

Henry- They met their end in a graveyard. That's pretty messed up.

Crowley- The corpses were eaten. Their heads alone remained.

Henry- Along with some other parts.

Crowley- Open it.

Henry- Open what?

CROWLEY POINTS AT A COFFIN.

Henry- Okay.

HENRY OPENS THE COFFIN.

Henry- What the actual fuck?

Crowley- Eh?

Henry- There's a banana in it.

CROWLEY LAUGHS

Henry- There's an actual banana inside the coffin. I'm not joking.

Crowley- Oh wow you're not joking. Then this is bad.

Henry- Huh? You know something I don't?

Crowley- Obviously, I know everything you fool and well it's call, "Bal Bal."

Henry- Come again?

Crowley- Urgh. It's a type of monster that kills their targets and fed of their bodies. They're also know as Eater of Death. When it doesn't go haunting humans they take the corpses from graveyards and then place a banana within the coffin. The reason is simple, it's simply saying that it was there. Their noses are way sharper than a dog. They can smell the living/dead from miles away. They have a distinct cry.

Henry- Then that cry earlier was..

Crowley- Yup, It should be coming any minute now. Start chanting any spells loud.

CROWLEY STARTS CHANTING.

Henry- Urm?

Crowley- Start chanting you fool. The louder you are the better. It can keep them away.

Henry- Any spells?

LOUD CRYING NOISES

Crowley- For fuck sakes Henry, just start chanting!

Henry- Okay, Okay.

HENRY STARTED CHANTING.

THE BAL BAL TRIED TO ATTACK BUT CROWLEY SPELLS KEPT IT AWAY.

Henry- Crowley! It's working!!

Crowley- Of course you idiot! You think I asked you to chant spells for the fun of it you fool?

Henry- Sorry.

CROWLEY SNAPS HIS FINGERS

A HUGE PRESSURE CLEARED OUT THE ENTIRE AREA

Henry- Huh?

THE BAL BAL TURNT TO DUST

Crowley- Well would you look at that. My limiters are off. That was a bit unexpected.

Henry- You're actually really powerful.

Crowley- As I said, I am the King Of Hell you know.

Henry- Holy shit. You turned that shit to dust man. It literally was crushed by your pressure. How was I not affected?

Crowley- I saw you as an ally.

Henry- Makes sense. I guess we can wait it out here.

Crowley- We can continue in the morning.

Henry- Yup.
