When Hanna looked through the open door, she saw Sheena crying and sobbing. Hanna approached her and hugged her. "Big sister. What is wrong? Is it because I am the one cooking food? Should I let you?"
Sheena, after hearing her voice, stopped crying and cleared her voice "No. Big sister is just sad. I just remembered something very very sad."
"Umm, if you're sad, don't you think of happy things?"
"Sometimes I do. But what I remembered gives both sad and happy feelings. Now Hanna, go on, I'll help you prepare our meal." As she went to the kitchen first, she left the letter by the table. Hanna saw this, and saw what has been written on the letter.
"Sheena, by the time you read this, I'd already lost my sanity. I am aware of what the Arrowhead clan specializes in. And, I want you, to kill me. I know it the time we spent was short, but I remember it like it was yesterday, I contracted a demon. Now it wants my body, please, hunt me down, don't let this demon rampage and kill with no reason at all. I beg of you, Sheena, please do it. Be the one to kill me. Kazein"
After seeing it, Hanna immediately ran towards Sheena. She was crying and her nose ran with snot. "Will you do it?! Will you kill big brother Kazein?! Isn't big brother your wife? Why does he want you to kill him? What has he done wrong?"
When Sheena heard these words, she cried once more. "I don't want to! I can't bring myself to do so! But! But it's what he wants! If I don't, he'll hate me for as long as he lives. I don't want that either!"
"Then! What will big sister do?!"
Sheena couldn't reply at all, she was too pained of heart she couldn't stand nor could she speak. The two just sat there crying like two girls who broke a promise.
When Hanna cried her self out, Sheena put her to bed. Then looked at her, and then thought [This poor child, she must've felt attached to husband. I will just have to raise her properly, after this job. I promise you Kazein, I'll look after her.] Then she left the sleeping Hanna.
By the time Hanna woke up, she rubbed her eyes, and saw the figure of a man cooking their breakfast. It was one of the old men yesterday, the old man noticed her and said "You woke up. Sheena asked me to look after you while she's gone, she said that she'll be doing something at her family's house."
"Mn, old grandpa, can I help you in the fields later?" It was the first thing she asked.
"Oh? Of course, we'll always need a helping hand. But first, eat up. You'll need strength to sow the field." The old man offered her fried rice and meat seasonings.
"Mn!" She then ate and then ate some more.
Present time.
"I will lead the demonic subjugation force! The forces dispatched to the borders are to report any unwanted behavior! Clans by the borders are ordered to dispatch their forces and secure the border lands. A search and destroy force will be sent from the capital, to the borders. They are to search and hunt for Kazein! Meanwhile, I will lead the main subjugation forces, and hunt him down." Sheena briefed everyone there.
After which, the meeting was adjourned, every clan head went back to their clans using the cathedral's teleportation gate. Shortly after, forces were sent to patrol the borders.
200 kilometers east from blue Cross city. Sat Azrael, still possessing Kazein's body, he lied down. Then, his head hurt, a battle went on in his consciousness. It was Kazein trying to take back his body. But it was to no use, Azrael already owned many parts of his body.
[ You're quite the tough guy. Aren't you?] Kazein talked to Azrael as their positions were now swapped.
[You're very tenacious for someone who lost his duty and forgot to bring me offerings.] Azrael replied.
[Look, I'm sorry about that. For now, just let me have my body, a Demonic suppression will be held. If I don't get us out of here, we'll both die.]
Azrael paid him no heed, then ended their conversation. As Azrael tried to stand up, he fell down, Kazein took back his consciousness and body.
[You idiot!!! You damaged your own soul just to get your body back?! Just how far will you go to get what you want?!] Azrael talked to him.
[Yeah, I'm crazy alright. But I'm no idiot, if I let you rampage, you might kill some people I've wanted to see scream. I'd rather I do it on my own!]
Azrael was forced out of his body and back to being a living soul within Kazein's body. Then, they again fought for dominion, in the end, it was a draw. Kazein learned from his mistakes and fought back much better than what he did last time.
Kazein prioritized on attacking Azrael's soul, since he held the Slayer sword, it was very effective. But Azrael wasn't that easy to beat.
After a battle of attrition, both of them wore out. Kazein was exhausted due to fighting, and Azrael due to his soul getting tired of attacks. Kazein who woke up from his battle with Azrael, sat by the tree. As he stood up, his head ached. The two of them were just fighting each other over his body, he walked slowly as he leaned on the trees, he just blindly went to where the tree's led him.
5 days later, the two of them was always having a battle every time Kazein is either asleep, or unconscious. Until the tenth day of escaping, he encountered a small scout group of about 12 people.
"It's Kazein the devil! Retreat! We must report! We spotted him!" Then, he sent a green flare.
Kazein, without hesitation, dashed forward to attack. He cut off three heads, two with Azrael's sword, and one with the Slayer sword. The others ran away, knowing they are no match for him. Kazein killed eight more, one got away. As he went to chase, he stopped his body.
"I can't. If I kill anymore, I'd be pleasing that seraph's wants! I can't let him take my body, nor can he frow any stronger. If this goes on, he'll be an enemy I can't go against." He thought to himself.
Suddenly, from the horizon, red flares were shot. In a flash, he let the other one go and he ran away towards the Northeast.
