3rd Person's POV:
"Clair...." Enya softly spoke as they continued on with their path.
"Hm?" The woman responded with a faint hum.
"You said to me that you've encountered an oni before?" Enya mumbled.
"Yeah.... Me, Light, and Arthur, why?"
Enya: It's just that the oni we fought earlier.... Does it look the same to the one you defeated back in our first mission?
Clair: Well... Kind of? But I don't see the point of discussing it now enya.
Enya: Hm, I don't know if you're getting me but I feel something odd with this place.
Felix: Well maybe because we're in the path of the underwold!!
Felix joined in their conversation.
Enya: No... That's not what I meant.
After their observation at the area, they were met up with demonic beasts that seemed familiar to both clair and light.
Clair: Are those?....
Light: The demons we fought back in the legendary grove?
Enya: Huh?
Enya looked at them confused on what they meant when suddenly he was assaulted by the beast.
"ARGH!"
Clair: Enya!
The beasts were stronger than usual.
Enya summoned up his weapon and shot the ones who were attacking him and so as the others.
Soon enough they managed to kill all of them at once, although Niel and Jacob got wounded because they were the only ones who fights in hand to hand.
Enya: Niel!
Felix: Jacob!
They both approached the beastmen.
Enya: Niel! Are you hurt?!
Niel: Kind of....
Enya: Where does it hurt?
Niel: Here~
He puckered his lips hoping to get a kiss but all he received was a slap on the face.
Niel: Ow! Now my face hurts tooo~
Enya: We must focus niel.
Niel: Sorry enya..
Enya just smiled at the beastmale in front of him as they proceeded.
---------------------------------------------------
Enya: Clair... You said something earlier about the beasts?
Clair: Yeah, those were the beasts me and light fought back in the legendary grove, looks like it's stronger than the ones before.
Enya: Yeah, this place is full of malice.
Felix: S-so... What happens when we get killed in here?
Enya: oh shush felix! No one's going to die on my watch, I'm especially talking about you cause according to professor fox you got a "D" on your grades.
Felix: Hey! Don't talk about that!
Enya chuckled.
Enya: Why did you ask that by the way?
Felix: N-nothing.... Just curious...
Enya rolled his eyes as he began to explain.
Enya: When we get killed here, our souls will get dragged inside these walls or on the grounds... While our body slowly decays.
Felix: D-decays?! What do you mean?!
Clair: How do you know all this enya?
Enya: Well.... When I was a young boy back in yosoge, my guardian would always explain to me certain stuff my eyes land on to, mostly I love to explore on books and one book I saw it regards to places that is related to the underworld, such as megado.
Clair: So your guardian explained to you what happens to mortal bodies when they get killed in places like this?
Enya: Yep, I was a weird kid back then.
Felix: So?
Enya: So what?
Felix: What happens next?
Enya: Do I really have to explain every single detail to you?
Clair: Well you entertained felix' question, might as well end your explanation to him so young boy's curiousity right here will end.
Enya: Fine... When souls get removed from a mortal's body and dragged on these walls.....that's where the "Tormented Souls" come.
Felix: Tormented Souls?
Clair: Those are the ones we've been hearing this entire time... Enya?
Enya stopped for a moment, he could feel his heart racing, just imagining the horror is making him sick and terrified.
Niel: Enya? Are you okay?
As they continued on their path the shrieks of the souls got louder.
"Help us!"
"Please stop!"
"We're begging you!"
"Please help us!"
The shouts of tortured souls got even more clear and more audible.
Clair: Enya?
Clair saw enya as his body began to shake, she had never seen anything terrify enya like this.
Enya: No!........
Light: Enya! Agh!
Niel: Enya!
Enya regained his senses.
Enya: Guys...... I'm sorry, i kind of lost myself a bit back there.... C'mon, let's hurry up a bit, we can't stay here for any longer.
Clair: Why?
Enya: Just follow me, I can't say anything out loud in here.
They all picked up the pace and ran to reach the end of the area.
Light can feel his body crack but he tends to hide it to everyone, he doesn't want to be a burden to anyone.
Especially clair...
