Chapter 25 - Unraveling Identities

Airi tried her best to move inside the tight crevice to break through Nagisa.

"Mm! mmm!" Airi protested with muffled sounds.

However Nagisa ignored them and kept kissing her. The demon rat was right around the corner, and he needed Airi to keep silent. She became more feisty so he stuck her tongue deeper in and their tongues intertwined.

Airi's bossom pressed against Nagisa's chest, she was slightly larger than a handful, making them larger than both Chisa's and Risa's. Nagisa blushed, his lust was beginning to affect his mind and it was harder for him to keep calm in this situation. Air became flushed in her cheeks as well.

Nagisa felt a strange sensation coming off her, almost like he could sense the truth about her. The demon rat left the area to search for them and Nagisa stopped kissing her.

"You are not a half---" Nagisa attempted to speak but Airi punched him right in the stomach.

"Get off me! What do you think you are doing!" Airi shouted and fussed.

Nagisa grunted in pain while they exited the crevice to the platform outside. Airi was still furious and they both stared seriously at each other for a good long minute.

"You realize I just saved your life? That demon rat was at Stage-3, we need a different plan on how to beat it!" Nagisa explained and justified his earlier actions.

"Hmph! And kissing me is your best excuse?" Airi sneered.

"Well you would not shut up!" Nagisa complained back.

Another minute of quiet went by, with both looking at different directions before staring back at each other once more.

"You--!" Both said simultaneously.

"You are a noble high-elf!" Nagisa claimed.

"You are an Arcane user!" Airi stated.

They both spoke at the same time again and looked at each other.

"How did you know?!" They both synchronized their set reactions.

Two deep sighs were let out and Nagisa gestured with his hand for Airi to go first.

"There is no other way you would be able to identify the demon rat so fast otherwise… and I could sense the remnants of Arcane magic coming off you!" Airi blushed.

It was clear Nagisa was not the only one who discovered the other one's identity through their shared and not so mutual kiss.

"Same here… somehow I could tell and look into your past and sense that you are of a noble kind. But why would u be here or disguise yourself as a half-elf?!" Nagisa inquired.

Airi shook her head, "I will explain at a different time, I do not have time to deal with the likes of you right now," Airi painfully held up a hand pressed against her face.

She intended to keep her identity hidden and Nagisa could fully relate to that.

"Yeah let's put our cards on the table for a different date! The demon rat is blocking the exit!" Nagisa agreed with her.

They briefed each other slightly on their abilities without revealing too much. Nagisa explained his Arcane Insight and how he could foresee certain things, unless the opponent's speed surpasses his own.

Airi sighed, "You know foresight is trainable, speed is not a relevant factor," she explained to Nagisa.

Those were good news for Nagisa and he planned to brief her more on the matter at a later time. Airi explained she used something called "Lost Magic" and that she was able to use most elements when enchanting her arrows.

Nagisa pried further on what Airi's full strength was. She admitted being equivalent to what their kind calls Stage-3.

"So that is why you were confident enough to not withdraw?" Nagisa realized.

"Yeah… except I did not know it was at Stage-3. So you have my thanks for that," Airi turned her head blushing a bit.

Nagisa felt at ease now that she was opening up a bit about herself.

"Okay let's form a plan that surrounds your strength to beat it," Nagisa smiled and held out his hand.

Airi high fived it and they started scheming. From their understanding the demon rat has three hearts being at Stage-3, they would have to eliminate all of them in order to defeat it.

"Do you think you can scan the locations of those hearts?" Airi asked.

"How?" Nagisa got confused.

She let out another loud sigh.

"Listen… Arcane abilities can also deduce weaknesses when it comes to demons… Arcane users used to be the most prominent demon hunters centuries ago," Airi explained a new thing.

"Interesting…" Nagisa smirked.

They slowly located the demon rat, and like they feared, it was blocking the ladder for their exit to head back upstairs to the surface. Airi and Nagisa glanced at each other.

The plan was that Nagisa would first try something Airi called "Arcane Peer", which allowed one to peer inside the demon and spot its hearts. The second part of Airi enchanting three arrows and shooting them across simultaneously to pierce the demon rat.

"Are you ready?" Nagisa asked and Airi nodded.

Nagisa peaked the corner and concentrated then closed his eyes to sense the aura coming from the demon rat. He could sense pure darkness and in the midst of it, its silhouette began taking shape. Inside the shape of the silhouette he saw three beating hearts with an eye center of each heart, pulsating blackened blood.

"Normal place, at the bottom of its tail and slightly above its right kidney," Nagisa identified each of the three hearts.

"Got it!" Airi smiled and licked her lips then prepared three arrows.

< Lightning Arrow >

The lightning arrows were the fastest ones in her arsenal, making them the piercing kind. She strung them against the bow and aimed carefully with one her left eye shut. After a few seconds Airi let go of the arrows and they were all rapidly moving right on each of the three targeted hearts.

"This will work!" Nagisa grinned confidently.

"Be gone from this world, you filth!" Airi uttered as the arrows approached their target.
