Eleanor and Liyab looked at each other, Eleanor looked calm, so calm she looked that the man laying on the ground was shuddering at the sight of her eyes that reflected the crimson-colored sand and himself.
Liyab could not even catch a breath as he started to gasp because of the slowly increasing volume of sand in his lungs when the ground beneath his still-laying self poked slightly and formed spears that targeted only his limbs, making it obvious to him that the lady in front of him is here to torture him, he immediately jumped in an awkward position but suddenly, through the illumination of his now burning fist, brown-colored mini-orbs appeared in his sides, once again, Liyab can see that the bullets aiming at his four limbs.
_Fuck she's out for revenge!_
Liyab did not even try to stall for time for his fellow vice-captains by striking up a conversation as he finally realized that the lady in front of him was someone who was here to avenge, or most likely vent her anger because she could not defeat their captain, Hebi Tsukaiza who is the true murderer of the queen of Gjallarhorn.
Talking to her will just cause Liyab to be caught and tortured, though that doesn't mean that he will not fight back, after all, he still has his pride. As the bullets descended and targeted Liyab, he immediately made his arms fold as he dodged the bullets aiming at his shoulders and legs with extreme precision, Eleanor just looked on at the gymnastic-like dodging feat of the man in front of her.
The man is still looking at her as if he wanted to retaliate, as if he had a chance to do such a thing, for alas, the once almost bottomless stamina signature to devils of Liyab stagnated hours before his estimated time, causing him nearly to be pinned down countless of times, Liyab immediately looked for a tree, ignited it and phased towards it dodges the bullets and to plan his retaliation, he looked at his opponent but what he saw is her ever calm eyes, she did not even think that Liyab will attempt to escape Eleanor is not even thinking that Liyab CAN escape her pursuit.
"Huff... Huff... Huff..."
Liyab glared at the woman who stopped attacking him for some reason, panting and sweating as if he were a human, though this was not the first time Liyab felt exhausted, it was the first time that he was huffing when he was just fighting for an hour, it was completely absurd for a devil like him as he was once again reminded that his whole body was slowly being filled with sand.
"Is that how he looks like when she's at her wit's end?"
Eleanor smiled as she slowly approached Liyab, Liyab did not even answer and flicked his finger as a large volume of flames immediately engulfed Eleanor who was inching nearer and nearer to him, the ejection force was so powerful that the ground on the straight line of the "Brilliant Flame's" wake was scraped, creating a trench-like mini crater, it's temperature was so high that the land got molten.
But the brilliant flames did not even stop creating molten a crater in a straight line when Liyab suddenly heard a voice on his back.
"I just wanted to ask how my friend died, are you that shameless that you fear replying to me? Do you think that what you did is something that you just did as a side quest? Do you still think that you are innocent?"
Liyab glared at the lady further, wondering if she had gone crazy, if not for the fact that the sand bullets earlier were very targeted and slowly but surely nearing his limbs as he dodged, he would have thought that Eleanor was going insane, but there is no crazy woman that can do such a pinpoint assault that aims to slowly torture a person.
_How can a person be mad enough to misinterpret the actions of her target, yet be calm enough to think out such a surefire torture method?_
Liyab was confused, but feeling the squirming inside his lungs that already started to rumble because of the sand blocking them and also noticing that the sand started to squirm through the other organs in his body, he did not hesitate any longer as he pounced on Eleanor, trying to create a hand to hand combat scenario that he was most familiar with to at least gain a slight advantage over his opponent and have the chance of defeating her.
