"Watch out, brother! It can be dangerous!" Enatsu stammered, touching his wound with one hand. "What are you standing there for? I'm telling you, there's a demon back here!" he yelled at Ryutaro and Shioko, knowing he couldn't escape the carriage in his current condition.
Before receiving a response from the two more experienced warriors, Yoichi looked out from the other side of the carriage. His gaze framed the wooden spokes of the wheels and gradually lifted to peer at something strange.
A little coal-black creature was hanging with its tiny hands from the hidden edge of the carriage. As soon as it felt Yoichi's eyes on itself, it crossed his gaze: two big blue eyes were separated by an enormous triangular nose, far too big for his tiny face.
The eyes blinked rapidly, reflecting the light like two shiny sapphires. That little demon seemed to lack a mouth, and the shape of its body resembled that of a miniature man.
