Reiji is sipping saahas concoction He has remained use of his arms barely. Lilith sitting by his side.
"I see why you stopped me reiji. It seems I picked a worthy person to contract too." Lilith says smiling.
Reiji scoffs looking to the side "Nonsense I don't know what you see in me. I just think he deserves a chance."
Sasha comes in with a tray of food.
"I hope your hungry boy"
reiji shakes his head "Call me reiji you have far outearned the right, and my appreciation. you had no reason to help. I thought id be stuck like that for life."
"The remedy isn't hard to get the monsters are ferocious,But those who live here know their habits. as long as you don't wake them. problem us people try to get more than they need." it is otherwise incurable, but you were lucky to have been here."
reiji laughs "we just keep thanking each other."
Sasha smiles "Well it is the thought that counts." Alex comes running inside
"Grandma they are coming they will be here by nightfall. They have guards with them it seems berg sent some knights for you."
Sasha sighs " run Alex the next village over is being rebuilt help there. Live please ask Albert to take you. He is still friendly to us."
Alex yells "no your coming with me!!!!" Alex grabs his grandmother trying to leave with her.
She stops him removing his hand.
"I can't leave here, I'm sorry alex."
Alex starts to cry but is stopped by a loud command from reiji.
"Stop your tears kid you must live. You must learn to be better than those before you. besides your grandmother will go with you."
Sasha looks at reiji " I will not I must atone."
Reiji sighs" Lilith gently please"
Sasha backs away, but Lilith is too fast giving her a chop to the neck.
Alex yelled "What are you doing?" Lilith hands Sasha to him.
Reiji laughs " Boy here is a lesson sometimes you have to protect someone by hurting them and their pride. Next time protect what you have to protect yourself. go now before it is too late. ask for a woman called Rosalie. Do not go north go south there is another village. That woman will take care of you. tell her Reiji hashimiya sent you. I will follow when I can."
The boy goes outside with his grandma. looking back he utters only one sentence.
"I better have my revenge someday."
Reiji smiles "Do your best, but you won't ever be able to kill me." the boy rushes getting a horse and cart ready to go. Reiji watches in the distance when he was finally on his way.
"Lilith please prepare for our guests." reiji says
sipping from the cup of medicine. He starts refilling it from the pot Sasha had brewed earlier. Reiji cracks his neck testing his movement.
"Not good enough to fight yet it seems."
Reiji goes to stand his legs still partially paralyzed. Lilith catches him as he falls. helping him to the bed again.
"Sorry Reiji I don't know how much I can do alone. A weapon isn't a weapon without someone to wield it. I can fight autonomously for awhile, but I assume you want them alive."
Reiji nods "They just want someone to blame like the boy before. they want someone anyone to take the blame."
Lilith laughs " you sound like a old man I swear hahahahahahaha."
Reiji glares "Keep it up I will give you a spanking."
Lilith closes her mouth protecting her rear.
"Perv"
Reiji smiles "Oh im sorry I thought you were marrying me in our contract. So your not interested?"
Lilith blushes "I am a living weapon I have a human form, but I don't have human needs. Our contract is termed how it is because I really felt a connection to you."
Reiji drinks more of the remedy. "I wonder"
reiji activates healing touch as he drinks which speeds up the remedies effectiveness. Reiji smiles looking off in the distance

The noise from the system goes off again.

"That's... I know that voice somehow"
"Reiji you have to wake up"
A woman with long black hair appears. her eyes shining with hope, and worry.
"Wake up Reiji"
Reijis eyes shoot open as a loud group can be heard outside. yelling ensues Lilith screaming as loud as she can.
"You will not be allowed to go inside try, and I will stop you."
