After checking around for clues , I'm left with only one option...
" It must have gone underwater, Bethel didn't mention anything about water swimming Demons. Shit!" I jump into the water, I swim deep untill I reach another surface.
"Woah!..." I look around surprised. It's a cave furnished like a home, there's also a bear roasting on a fire. " Is this even real?" I said to myself.
Flauros comes out from a door wearing a robe , singing as it checks and turns the bear over.
He pinchs out og the meat to taste it "ummmm taste good."
I keep staring not believing my eyes.
Flauros sniffs the air, then comes close to the water to check . It stares for a while before going back in.
I come out of the water, gasping for air after holding my breath under the water for long.
I check around. " you gotta be kidding me" I said as I saw some books on the table. "It reads?" I see a glasses beside the books. " Oh c'mooonn, it wears glasses to read. What's this?". I pick up a strange item that looks like a beetle.
"Put that down." Flauros said.
"Ah!" I'm startled by it, I quickly spawn my Dagger.
"I'm not going to hurt you, now put that down before you accidentally summon it."
"What? Summon what? How come you're standing on two legs like a man and what's with the robe? Is this an illusion to let me lower my guard?"
" It's a long story, would you like some roasted bear?". He places the bear on a table and cuts a piece into a plate for himself then ties a napkin around his neck.
"No thanks, what are you?"
" Oh! Forgive my manners. I am Flauros the second.". He takes a bite out of the bear meat. " This is really good, sure you don't want some?"

FLAUROS
"No. What do you mean Flauros the second?" I asked.
He pours wine into a glass. " if you insist to know I'll gladly tell you, nothing beats a good meal and a story. Ten years ago I met two Nephilim Twins, half Angel and half Demon.
"Keep going."
"Hunters, just like you. They hunted me down till I got to a forbidden treasure."
"What was this treasure?"
" I opened it, hoping to gain power but it was a treasure that divides the soul"
"It divided your soul."
"Correct, but not just that. It divides the soul into good and evil, my evil half which is the original me, Flauros the first attempted to kill me at the very moment after it split us but I fled into this enchanted forest. Have been hiding ever since.
" Cool story but why should I believe you? "
" Because I hoped an Hunter would find me and you have. My evil half still hunts me and he's not going to stop even after killing me, I need your help to stop him. We're still connected so I can sense his presence."
" How do I know this isn't some sort of trap. Why can't you hunt him yourself?"
He starts feeling himself. " As you can see, I am a cook, a philosopher, a renowned soul, a doctor, a scholar, a..." He stops as he notices the awkward face I gave. "Um..."
"Yeah" i replied.
"Sorry, what I mean to say is I do not know how to fight nor do I have the skills of a fighter."
"But you sure seem to know how to hunt." I said as I stare at the bear.
"Oh! The bear? They frighten me, I simply set up a splendid trap."
"Bears frighten you?"
"Absolutely, very vulgar creatures."
" You're twice my size and you're scared of bears? Bears should be terrified of you."
"You're going to hurt my feelings. What do I call you if I may ask?"
"Tyson. Now let's go find the evil you."
"Oh my! I must finish my meal. It's not everyday I get to eat such a tasty meat."
Five minutes later...
"Good, you're done. Let's go"
"Have you no manners? Good table manners propose you rest right after a meal for proper digestion." he said as he pick his teeth .
"Get your ass up or I'll turn you into a roasted leopard."
"Right." He goes in and comes out after a minute. " let's go."
"What the hell are you wearing??🧐"
"It's a Brazilian sweater and muffler, I rather wouldn't want to catch a cold."
"A cold? You have furs🤦🏻♂️. A leopard shouldn't even be wearing pants."
"Good Lord! You'd rather have me walk naked and expose my manhood?" He said with an awkward expression.
I sigh out of frustration "let's just go."
"One more thing, I think perhaps I should get an umbrella in case it rains, the weather seems..."
"One more word and I will kill you faster than your brain works, got it?"
"Got it" he forces a smile
Flauros and I head out to hunt Flauros the first, he shows me another way out of the cave.
"Aviola." the wall turns into a door. " this is the original way in. Only I can..." He notices I'm staring at him awkwardly again. " Sorry, let's go."
Forty minutes later...
"We're close, his presence has gotten stronger."
"Great, any hint you might wanna give me?"
"About what?"
"I mean anything you think I should know about him?"
"Um...he's fast, has retractable claws, has fangs and he also has a tail."
" oh God, those are basic cat features. I mean something out of the ordinary" I said with frustration.
"He's here!"
I look around. "where? I don't see him."
"His presence is very near, it gives me goosebumps."
"Really? You get goosebumps?"
"Not really, sort of. Well you know what I... Look out!"
I feel something strong break against my face. "Uff!"
Flauros the first used a wood to bash my face. I crash into a few trees before hitting the floor, I black out immediately.
"Hello Flauros." He said to Flauros the second as he tosses the wood aside.
"Oh Flauros ma mahn, how's it going? How's life treating you? I was just leading this human to you as a gift😅"
"Your corny games won't work on me. You die here and now, there can only be one Flauros."
Flauros the second falls on his butt.
" c'mon mahn, I'm you. Don't do this..."
His claws grow longer " this will hurt and I'm going to enjoy it."
Flauros the second closes his eyes...
"Hey!" I blast a ying-yang blast at Flauros the first, one of the skills I learnt from the book dad gave me.
"Urrgghh!!!" He blocks it with his arms but it burns his fur off. " I'll kill you for that!!!"
I crack my neck. " At least you're not putting on pants or thinking you'll catch a cold."
He comes at me with intense speed exceeding that of Bethel's. He moves in an unpatterned circle around me, looking for an opening to strike.
"You're fast" my eyes glow grey. " but that's not good enough." I predict his next movement and punch him in the belly.
Flauros the first falls into a swamp. "Is this some sort of mockery. How can you keep up with me?"
"I can't say for sure but have been getting more and more powerful, like an endless growth". i spawn my dagger. " now let's end this."
He growls at me.
" What you waiting for? C'mon kitty". I said as i spin my chained dagger.
He charges at me angrily
" Rooaarrr!!!"
He moves around me before attacking from the back, i evade his attack and give him an elbow strike to it's throat.
"Roar!"
It shoots an energy laser beam from it's eyes. I try to absorb it but night policy makes it explode, sending myself and my dagger to opposite directions.
"Uh damn" i said as I hit the ground.
Flauros the first presses me down with his large leg, his claws injuring my chest. " worthless!"
"So rude... " I said I try to lift his leg from my chest.
Flauros the second throws a stone on it's head. " let him go, you want me? You kill me."
" I'd rather kill you both" he replied.
"Not on my watch." i spread my wings then fly up knocking Flauros the first off his paws.
" You have wings?" Flauros the second asked.
"Don't ask..."
"Wings or no wings, you will die like any other."
"Flauros!"
Flauros the second nods at me then runs towards my dagger.
" You will not succeed here Nephilim scum!" Flauros the first said.
"Oh I'm dying to find out. Now!" Flauros the second throws my dagger to me, I catch it and fly towards Flauros the first.
Flauros the second casts a spell on him, making him feel a hundred times heavier than usual.
"What did you do to me?" Flauros the first said as his movement become slower, easier for me to follow.
"Quite a simple spell, one I learnt from a book. Tyson, now's your chance!"
I fly around him warping my chained dagger around his neck then I pull it till it slowly cuts off.
"Garhhh!" Flauros the first holds the chain and tries to pull me.
"How bout we level things..." I cast a lightning spell into my dagger, it electrifies him.
"Rooaarrrr!!!"
I use more energy to pull till his head cuts off...
"I clearly don't want to get on your bad side" Flauros said.
I let out a weak laugh "nah you don't..."
"Thank you."
"For what?" I asked as I breath heavily.
"For everything and mostly for trusting me."
"Well it's not everyday you see a leopard in pants. "
" Does my fashion bother you?"
"Nahh I think your British accent's worse than your fashion."
We both laugh at the chopped off head staring at us, looking like it's smiling.
"I'm hungry."
" I will be delighted to prepare you a duck soup, hummn very nutritious and tasty. Would you also like to try a very fine Spanish old wine, Teso La Monja."
"Yeah Flauros I'd like that, thanks."
