Chapter 9 - Previous possession: Final chapter

"Wait here. One of the guys will come over and question you about Ruhi."

Just as instructed, I escorted her to the interrogation room. I felt bad for deceiving her into believing that the superiors were not suspicious of her.

I went to the superior and told him what had happened after I left her in that room.

"Sir, what makes you believe that she is possessed?"

"Everything"

"Everything?"

"You see, Rohit, in contrast to you, we do not believe in what we merely wish to believe."

"What do you mean?"

"Tell me you do not feel like there is something off every time you see her."

"Isn't it because she lost her memories?"

"So tell me about the instance when you reported that she stopped having a pulse and you believed she had died."

"I may have checked it incorrectly because I was so terrified when I saw her faint."

"And what about her aura—you obviously know what happens when a human's aura vanishes."

"Well, some people do not have any aura."

"That is a different situation; they do not have mana from birth, unlike her. What about the call that Rohi made to you right before the collision? She was afraid of someone, as we discovered by looking through her call history, and she mentioned Nehal right before the crash."

"Sir, I still don't think she is possessed."

"I understand that you are struggling because the demons took everything from you, but that does not mean you have to live in delusion."

When he said that, I was a little upset, but maybe he is righ—No! I still find it hard to accept that she is possessed.

I do not think she is possessed; she just lost her memory.Why can not he understand that? Perhaps he dislikes her and wants to use this opportunity to get rid of her.

"I still don't—"

"Sir!"

A loud voice came from my back, prompting me to turn in that direction.

"Nehal is speaking in demonic language."

"What!"

"Moreover, how should I explain this? She leaped—no, she floated straight towards the camera, which was perched on a ceiling corner—and she is still holding it, even though she lost her blessing."

"Don't tell me she's possessed?"

There was a part of me that suspected her, but I always denied it.

"Do not let that demon escape, Siji. Call everyone who is available and surround the room."

Why am I like this this. Why do I always refute my feelings when I sense something is off?

"Rohit"

"Y-yes"

"It's time to leave"

I had strange thoughts running through my head and was feeling furious. I moved directly in the direction of the interrogation room; people were gathered around it, but I punched through the wall without batting an eye.

All I could think about was the demon in front of me, who had taken her away from me.

The guys around me were talking nonsense, which made me want to kill them.

"We are facing a demon, so keep quiet unless you want me to forget that you are my coworker." I warned them.

"Hey, Rohit seems really angry."

"Did you not know Nehal and him were in a relationship?"

"What!"

"Ack!"

I grabbed onto one of my colleagues and lifted him off the ground.

"I told you to shut up."

"O-ok"

I dropped him to the ground and approached the demon. Everyone in the area became silent, possibly sensing my anger.

"You were the one responsible for that incident; wasn't taking everything away from me at the time sufficient?"

"What do you mean?"

"Now that you are back, you took everything from me once more."

"Sorry, but I don't like killing, and I had possession of her when she was dead."

"Do you really think your lies will work?"

The anger inside me was increasing every moment. My only thought was to kill this demon in the most horrific way possible.

"Can you guys get rid of me now that my cover is blown? If it is okay with you, try to make it less painful."

"I'll make you regret taking everything away from me."

"Sigh, whatever, can we get over this? It's really hard to control my emotions here."

Is this demon making fun of me?

"How I will exact my revenge if you don't fight me."

"Dunno."

"Then, I will make you fight me."

He took some time as if he was thinking something. I have no idea what this demon was planning, but if he believed he could flee, he was mistaken.

"Okay, if fighting you is the only choice, so be it."

That demon charged right at me. I clenched my fist and threw it as hard as I could toward that demon.

Unlike the last time my punch connected.

The demon was smiling at me and seemed to be speaking to me just before my punch actually connected.

"Loser"

The punch had such incredible force that it tore through everything in its path, piercing both the upper part of the possessed body and the wall in front of me.

The demon was exorcised, but I didn't feel anything. Instead, my rage only intensified and the demon's words consumed all of my thoughts.

"Haha"

"I just gave that demon what he wanted, but I wanted him to pay for what he did."

I then remembered that this demon had no aura. Humans without an aura were extremely rare, so there was a way to find him.

"Even if I have to deal with every person without aura in the world, I will find you and take everything from you."

I promised to myself.
