Struck.







"Are you sure you're taking us to the right place? Or are you just ridding me."

"Does it look like I'll tell you anytime soon?" Nakime turned her head halfway towards the girl already getting a migraine from her constant questions.

Uta didn't reply as she just rolled her eyes in response. Nakime did have somewhat of a point though. She decided in the first place to 'help' her so that can only mean that at this moment, she knew best.

Only thing uta could do now was listen. Uta does not whatsoever listen.

"We need to find someone real quick. Bare with me for now and follow."

The woman's eyes narrow just a bit. Just what was she talking about? Wasn't the main goal to find- you know what it doesn't matter.

"This better be good."

Nakike doesn't say anything as she began to speed walk across the fortress. Funny how the infinity castle seemed to be endless loops as if one would be walking around in circles, but it seemed like in nakime's case, she just knew her way along.
Not too surprising, this is her demon art. This is her own place. Fucking muzan doesn't even know his way so that's quite impressive.
As said, it was almost like they were walking into the middle of no where. Loop after loop. Same arena after arena. At least, that's what uta thought.

Now, thinking about it, the fortress really is unique. An eldritch, sinister feeling lingering in the air surrounding both women that at this moment, make their way about across the fortress.
It's no surprise that most of the slayers who made their way in can never make their way out. You live or perish. In the slayers instance, they crossed into the dark pits of nothing but an endless void of pure vacuum with no source of light, and definitely no source of life. In the manifestation of 'living', it's clearly more than impractical to live in a world of terror and demons. Whereas one specific demon can determine whether or not you vanish from sight or run about until time comes.

As uta continued to glance around, admiring each detail portrayed in this idiosyncratic infinite castle, she failed to notice nakime jumping down to which seemed like some sort of floating building underneath where she stood.
A sudden pause came within her as she thought to herself how could she possibly get lost when they've only been walking for barely ten minutes? Or at least she estimated how long it's been.

A small, what seemed like a whisper, called out to the demon; "Nakime?"

No answer.

This time she spoke clearer with her usual angelic voice; "Nakime!"
Once she did, and unexpected pull on her kimono, grasped her down one level. Letting out a small yelp, she was about to tell off whoever was it that did so until she realized that only many could really see her. Many... wait was there another demon apart from nakime here?
Uta quickly turned to face nakime, whom pulled her down as she faced a somewhat unfamiliar demon boy who seemed to look pretty young, with a bitched look stance.

Cat-like purple eyes... pupils into slits... colored hair that resembles broccoli. Was he a bum? Could he even see spirit-

"Took you long enough psycho. Hurry up and tell me what was it you wanted before I gouge your eyes out. What deal were you talking about back there?"
