Unexpected Romance | Yejisu FF

Chapter 27

"We literally just wasted our whole day Ryeong," Ryujin placed both her arms up behind her neck, walking sluggishly as exhaustion started to rot her legs away.

"I know Ryu, but we still have to do this to ensure that we get to eliminate the demons here."

Ryujin nodded, letting out an exhausted sigh shortly after.

Their whole day has been filled with them flying and walking around New York, they've done so since the sun came up the horizon. Constantly using their heightened sense of sight to pinpoint any signs of demonic activity.

Due to that reasoning, they had to use their angelic abilities and in doing so. It strains the longevity of their ability.

To put it simply. The more they use it, the harder it is for them to tap into it much quicker. 

Ryujin's angelic ability enables her to perfectly replicate anyone's combat movements, making her dodging absolutely fluid and attacking highly volatile and powerful. It also heightens her adaptability whilst in combat.

Because of her over reliance towards her ability lately. Ryujin has shown some clear and obvious strains and incapability to utilize her skills to its full extent and capacity.

It all started when she magically and mysteriously got revived. Ever since then she has been struggling mightily to use her ability for an extended amount of time.

"Yeah, I get it. I just want to go home and re—" Ryujin stopped on her tracks. As she looked up to her right, noticing a silhouette of a tall man standing menacingly across their apartment compound.

It took a short moment for Ryujin to identify who the man standing across their place. Eventually realization soon hit her, it hit her like a speeding truck driving at a highway.

Legends have been told across the Kingdom of Heaven. That a man, perfect in everything, will appear once another angel, similar to him happens to become a fallen.

Now knowing the legends and seeing a man who radiates perfection all around him. It proved that it is indeed him.

Lucifer.

He's come up from hell to visit a certain someone. A someone who happened to have turned into a devil and also happens to be the same kind as he is.

"Ryeong are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Ryujin stood, frozen from her place. Asking Chaeryeong for confirmation if whether she's lost it or if the taller girl too could see it. But no response was ever given to her.

Ryujin expected a reply from the taller girl, but instead she saw Chaeryeong sprinting away from her and flying up to the roof top of their apartment.

Ryujin ran her hands through her hair and sighed. "For the love of my father, please don't let me die again," Ryujin mutters to herself. Spreading her wings out and lazily flying herself towards beside Chaeryeong.

Upon her arrival beside Chaeryeong. The taller girl immediately faced her and gave out concrete orders.

"Ryujin, I want you to go and assist Hyunjin and Yeji inside. Stay outside the room and be on a look out for any demons trying to assassinate or kidnap Yeji."

"How bout you Ryeong? Will you be okay here alone?"

"I will be okay, as long as I'm breathing. I should still be able to perform my holy prayers."

Ryujin slowly nodded her head, placing her hand to Chaeryeong's shoulder and showing a worried expression towards the taller girl.

"Don't look at me like that Ryu, I'll be fine," Chaeryeong beamed a smile towards the blonde haired girl, reassuring her that she'd be okay. "Now go and assist the siblings down there."
