"Who are you?" asked the 2nd bro.
"Humph, we Taoists come here to destroy you, human-eating demon." said one of the big man behind Mrs. Li.
("Taoist, Onmyoji, Exorcist,...") the big bro remembered the professions that could harm him and his brothers.
Before he could say anything, his youngest brother dashed toward the Taoists. He was the hot-head among the three of them, after all.
"Wait, 3rd bro!"
The 3rd bro was already in front of one of the big men, he grew his claws and struck down.
But the big man dodged and grabbed his wrist.
"I think we should find another place to fight."
Grabbing the 3rd bro's wrist, the man dashed away.
Before the two demons regained their senses, Mrs. Li and the other Taoist did the same thing to them, moving to a place away from the people.
***
"Argh!"
The big Taoist dropped the 3rd bro down.
"Here is a good place to fight!" commented the man.
"How dare you!"
The 3rd bro got up and attacked again, like the last time, he was using his claws. The big Taoist dashed far away and dodged again.
Seeing that, the 3rd brother dashed toward the big Taoist again, this time he also used his claws.
"Humph, you are just like that!" the Taoist commented.
When the 3rd brother was close enough, the Taoist didn't bother to dodge anymore, he threw out three paper talisman.
BOOM BOOM BOOM
The paper talisman hit the 3rd bro and exploded.
"Argh, the fire!"
The 3rd bro tried to extinguish the fire on him, but then he realized that he was fighting. But it was too late, a big punch landed on his face.
The 3rd bro flied backward and fell down a few meters away. His nose was broken but it was healing.
The big man did not let the 3rd bro to have a chance to breathe, he took out a big metal rod and dashed toward the 3rd bro.
Seeing that, the 3rd bro decided to attack the Taoist when he raised the rod up and revealed his weak spot.
But to his surprise, before coming into the range of his claws, the big Taoist jumped up. It was a big and long jump. He jumped to behind the 3rd bro.
And before the 3rd bro could turn around, the big Taoist used his strength and struck the rod down on his head.
SCRASH
The 3rd bro's skull was broken. He fell down, dead.
"You won't be able to heal if your head was destroyed, like many other creatures." said the big Taoist.
The 3rd bro's body began to change, and after a few minutes, it looked like the body of a monster, not human
***
The 2nd bro was taken by the other Taoist to another place, away from the people.
Different from his 3rd brother, the 2nd bro tried to run away, as soon as he could. But the Taoist blocked his way each time he tried to escape.
"You give me no choice!"
The 2nd bro also grew his claws and dashed toward the Taoist, who dodged the attack and dashed away.
This was repeated twice more.
("Look like he has become a demon just recently.") though the Taoist ("Then I should end this early.")
The Taoist took out a halberd and just after a few moves, he was able to thrust the halberd through the 2nd bro's head.
The 2nd bro fell down, dead, like his younger brother.
The same transformation happened to his body too.
***
Meanwhile, the big bro was being hit by lightning paper talismans of Mrs. Li.
"Argh!" he screamed.
("She's too strong for a newly-turned demon like me. I must find away to escape.") he thought.
After the talisman throwing moment, Mrs. Li took out a sword, which had many similarities to her old sword, which had been broken by Dyrroth. She dashed forward and swung the sword at the big bro's head.
Fortunately for him, he moved his head in time and escaped the fatal blow. But his shoulder was slashed and had a big wound.
"Argh!" he screamed before dashing far away.
("No, I can't die. I don't want to die. If I had a gun, I would shoot her.") thought the big bro.
That was when he felt some kind of power was emerging from his body. He had felt this power since the first day he consumed flesh and blood, but not until today that he felt it coming out. The problem was he had not the time for that power to completely emerged, because he was going to die by the hands of Mrs. Li.
***
"Different from your useless brothers, you have potential and can be of used to me." said De Vil. "I'm gonna help you a little bit."
And he began to channel his power.
***
When Mrs. Li was dashing toward the big bro, he suddenly felt that his power could be used now. And then a blood red gun was conjured in his hand.
POW POW POW
"What!" Mrs. Li was surprised and dodged, but a bullet still created a small wound on her arm.
"BLOOD DEMON ART!" shouted Mrs. Li.
"Blood Demon...Art?" it was the first time the big bro heard this name.
Mrs. Li remembered what she had read in ancient books her father forced her to read when she was still a little girl.
"Blood Demon Art, unique to each demon, is the supernatural ability that demon of high level can use. Demons with strong mental strength, intense malice, or have consumed much human flesh and blood can use it as well."
("With this I can escape.") thought the big bro.
He then raised his gun up and started shooting at Mrs. Li.
POW POW POW
Mrs. Li dodged but she was injured with light and small wounds. She couldn't get close to the demon in front of her without being hurt with more serious wounds.
("Gun and bullet are truly Taoist's enemies.) thought Mrs. Li.
"You're still too weak, leave RIGHT NOW!" De Vil shouted in the big bro's head through telepathy.
Although the big bro wasn't smart, but he knew if he stayed here long, the chances that he would die would rise up. So he stopped shooting, and began to concentrated his power and shot at an abandoned building nearby, making it collapsed and made a mess. With that, he easily escaped.
***
A few minutes later, the two Taoists came, they were carrying the two bodies before dropping them down.
"Sister Li!" they both greeted her.
Seeing the bodies, she knew that they had succeeded. Meanwhile, the two men noticed there was no body there and there was a mess, so they guessed the demon had escaped.
"We must report back to the association." said Mrs. Li. "A demon with Blood Demon Art has appeared."
Hearing that, the two men knew the gravity of the situation although they did not know the details.

Meanwhile, in the Royal Palace,
Patrick was lying in his bed, being lazy while his valet, Alfred took care of him.
("I should do this more often.") thought Patrick.
