[...So you're telling me that there is a town full of undeads around 4 miles away from City B, and there is a tier 4 undead called Corpse Lord living there. And this Corpse Lord called Master Foustus has around twenty ghouls along an equal number tier 2 undead beasts.] Synthia said in a flat tone.
[Yes.] I replied calmly, I was currently in my house in City A and Alice was sitting beside me asking me for feedback because she can't hear our telepathic conversation.
[...Fuck.] Synthia suddenly shouted giving me a small headache.
[It seems you understand the situation quite well, now we need to decide what we are going to do. Should I stay and eliminate the undeads or should I continue with my original mission and go to City J?] I asked her
[No, continue to City J, Castiel and Mr. Ziek will be here in three days and if anything happen I'll try to hold out until then. So go to City J and bring Sera back.] Synthia said hurriedly
[Fine then.] I said and ended the conversation
"So I'll be going to City J as planned." I said and Alice cheered, she really wanted to travel and this made me a bit reluctant to say what I was going to next.
"I will be going to City J...but you'll be staying here." I said and she instantly stopped cheering and her face became dark...really dark.
"What do you mean 'I'll be staying here'?" She asked in a dark ominous voice and I unconciously took a step back.
"L-listen to me a bit and calm down, if City B is attacked Synthia will need your help to take care of them just like last time because we both know the priests are mostly useless in a fight." I said hurriedly and she seemed to calm down a bit.
"I agree that Synthia will need my help since the priests are useless but, why would I agree to stay here without you? I hate those priests with a passion." She said
"First of all I can make you stay due to the contracts, but I won't of course. And secondly, you will be able to level up by killing undeads." I said
"First of all if you tried to force me to stay I would kill you in your sleep." She said and her eyes glowed intensely when she said the last part.
"As for your second reason, I can do that with you while we travel together to City J." She said
"Yes you could, but to be honest I was a bit reluctant to bring you with me even before finding out about the undeads." I said in a serious tone
"Why?" She asked
"Based on what Synthia told me there will be multiple tier 4 in our way while I try to rescue this Angel called Sera. If I were to bring you I not sure whether I would be able to protect you from all of them. And then there is also the fact that I'll be dealing with completely new types of demons which means I don't know what type of abilities they have which could be incredibly dangerous, for both of us." I said in a serious tone while squeezing my hands together. I wasn't so arrogant as to think that just because I was tier 4 I would be immune to any attack thrown at me by a tier 3.
"Fine, but I have two conditions." She said in an understanding tone.
"First I want a present when you get back." She said
"Ok, that's reasonable." I said
"Secondly..."

One hour later....
I walked out of the house rubbing my sore wrist. I stood there for a minute admiring the setting sun before transforming into my fearsome demon form. I flapped my wings and I was instantly propelled into the air and then I turned east in the direction of City J. I had a rough idea of where City J was based on a map I saw before so with [Stealth] active, I flew over the wide forest towards my destination.
