The sounds of steps quietly echoed in the luxurious place as the daemos made his way down the stairs. He ran his fingers through his messy, dark hair before walking through the wall, entering the human's home.

The lapis colored eyes landed on the spirit and the human's cat hissing at one another and scratching. The cat daemos brushed it aside as he made his way to the female's bedroom.

"I must learn more about humans." The star pupil mumbled to himself as he began to explore the female's, finding books, magazines, and more. Yet he picked up a peculiar magazine, one Lyra would be flustered at...

Back in the luxurious place, the prince sat in his throne his head laying in his palm with his eyes closed. Memories of daemos flushed back into his mind like a tsunami, yet one stood out to him the most. A meet up with his father.

"This is an honor upon daemos, you should be grateful you've been chosen!"

Asch eyes fluttered opened as he stared at the marble floor. Saying he was grateful for being next in line for the throne was an understatement, he despised the idea of ruling his kingdom. He rather much be caught by the council and have his head served on a silver platter, yet he couldn't disobey his father... the king.

Leif ran down the hall before phasing near the railing by the stair, next was behind the couch on the first floor, then near a lamp before running down the hall to where the spell pool laid. As he entered, the daemos caught a glimpse of the sleeping human and daemos who sat against one of the pillars.

The sound of knives being pulled out from their sockets echoed in the hollow room as Leif phased behind the human. Getting ready to strike, the green horned daemos rose his hand before his sickle to stab into the human a sword stopped it.

"Still putting up a fight about this I see.." the daemos chuckled while Pierce frown and grumbled how he's following orders and how the human was already injuried yet was healing. Leif chuckled as he began to coax the knight about how he had thoughts of killing the human yet doesn't want to. He then grumbled how long the knight gonna keep up with this act.

"As long as I need. Especially when your intentions aren't clear." Pierce growled lowly as his knuckles turned white from how he gripped the handle of his sword. The assassin rambled how his intentions were simple and how he does what he feels like doing, he then explained that tonight he felt like killing her instead of making her his.

The knight growled how can a life and death be so simple for the assassin yet was a stupid question asking such a daemos. Leif laughed as he quirked a brow with a cocky smirk on his lips as he asked Pierce why he's asking such ignorant questions. The knight just glared into the assassin's eyes, not wanting to accept the truth.

"I said it before, I'll say it again. The earth has changed us whether we want to admit it or not. I don't have a clue on why this happened." Pierce eyes widened at the assassin's words as he lowered his sword, he glanced at the female before putting his sword away. The words "kill her" left the knight's mouth with no trace of emotions causing Leif to quirk an eyebrow.

Pierce then grumbled how he's allowing the daemos to kill the human which sent stars to instantly form into Leif's eyes before laughing. He phases in front of the girl as he raised his sickle but the daemos was sent flying into one of the pillars by a gush of magic.
