"Talk"
'Thought'

"WEEEEEEEE!!!~"
In the hallway of the church castle, a bunch of Scarecrow demons could be seen twitching and moving around, no doubt trying to find more humans to cut up and kill, though as they continue to patrol the area, the sound of loud cheering and happy yelling made them pause and look around in confusion, they only had a moment to realize the one responsible for the sound before being smashed into and ripped apart by a incoming Gyro Blade, which is a large, spiked statue that was animate with the Anima Mercury, resulting in the blades to spin and bounce around throughout the entire hallway and killing every demon that were unfortunately in the way, all the while Bianca Eva Xiao Long could be seen riding and spinning on the Gyro Blade, this lasted for quite a bit before the spiked statue hit the end of the hallway and parked itself into its proper station holder, this did knocked off the Masked Imp.

"Hehe, nailed it~"
But Bianca seemed to be able to land perfectly on her feet, she huffs and was both proud of herself and seemed to be in a very good mood after the fun she just had.

"Did you enjoy the ride?"
It didn't take long for Nero Sparda, Boon and Sammy to follow after and walk up to Cambion Hunter, where she faced them with a bright smile on her face.

"Mhm! I wanna go agai-HRCKGAJ!!!"
Though before Bianca could greet her family, she was immediately interrupted by vomiting all over the floor, it seems her little joyride on the Gyro Blade did a lot more than make her dizzy.

"I-In second thought, w-we should probably fixate on our m-mission..."
Bianca groans, cleaning her face with a tissue she had in her pouch, before calling after Sammy, so she could ride him and have a moment to rest and recover, though as she was ready to move on to continue, her cousin just stood back and watched her with a concerned expression.

'I'm glad I managed to make her feel better after the fight with the knight.'
Nero sighs and rubs his, recalling how his cousin was like not too long ago before this.

'Even though she won, it's clear nearly getting ambushed took a hit in her confidence.'
Nero remembers how his cousin was unable to move besides shivering, had to take the nuzzles and comfort of Sammy calm her down.

'I mean, I'm glad she recovered and is willing to move forward.'
Nero clenched his fist tightly, as he was getting more worried for his cousin.

'But how long will it take until she reaches her limit...'
Though before Nero could stress over the future, his thoughts were cut off when he felt his demonic hand being held, making him look up and see his cousin standing before him.

"Nero? Are you coming?"
Bianca tilted her head, her older cousin could only let out another large sigh, before putting on a small smile back on his face.

"Yeah, just thinking."
Even though Nero tried to reassure his younger cousin, she still looks up to him, as if expecting more for him to say, but she didn't push it and just walked away, the Grandson of Sparda could only shake his head and looked down at his shadow, where Boon could be seen hiding within.

"We have a lot of work cut out for us, huh?..."
After such a small moment of tension, the group of Devil Hunter family members continue to walk on and move forward, soon finding themselves back outside, seemingly at the center of the entire church castle, as well as being the place where heavy snow storms could be located.

"A blizzard?"
As Bianca questions the idea of a blizzard existing here, she pulled out her fire dust chains and wrapped it around her arms so that she could be kept warm.

"I would've questioned why there's even snow in the middle of summer, but I'm sure we could already guess why."
Before Nero could give his guess on the they, the sounds of echo giggling could be heard all around then, which made the entire group be on guard and ready to face whatever the sound was coming from.
