The carriage ride wasn't too bad for Ryuji. However, he couldn't help but be intrigued by Sheila's mixed signals after his actions—Erika and Yumiko seemed tired. Both of them were sleeping on either side of him, using his shoulders as pillows.
'Well, even Simon is sleeping—it's only Paul who keeps using the ring to make more runes and Alicia who keeps flicking her gaze towards me that is awake.'
Ryuji looked at the sleeping Sheila. A strange feeling in his chest made him want to attack her. Since she showed hostility, he wanted to kill her. This bloodthirst, the demon inside of him, now able to control himself, he held it back for now.
Because Ryuji held a different taste, he wanted to at least savour her flavour before killing her.
