The Adventures of Rose Hood

Chapter 122: Luma Awakened

I landed in the same spot I initially left. FEAR disabled and I felt ill. I was not expecting the battle to be like that, but sure enough I completed two more of my requirements, and I gained the Devoured power of a demon general.

Gabriel flew over with Erica.

"Rose, are you okay?!"

"Yes."

"What happened?!"

Then he noticed the positioning of the blood. While there was some blood on my back, it was coalesced on my mouth and hands.

He shivered.

"What happened, Rose?"

"I have two more requirements fulfilled."

"How did you win?"

"I teleported us to the one place any demon becomes weak."

He looked at me in shock.

"You didn't..."

"Do you know any other place that fits that description."

He put his head in his hands.

"Go home, Rose."

"What?"

"Just for now... let me process this."

I could understand his shock and fear. Demons were Angels. Even if they were enemies, I ate one of his kin.

"Wait for me!"

Erica ran up.

"Erica?"

"I cleared it with my parents, they're good with you keeping my wonderful help."

"So, inform Dallel that production will continue to be in the negative."

"HEY!"

Then she looked at me.

"So, that's how the battle ended?"

"Yeah."

"Mr. Gabriel?"

"What is it, child?"

"Please don't hold it against her, she hates that side of FEAR as much as the rest of us do."

He calmed a bit.

"Thank you for telling me that."

I warped me and Erica back to Selethon.

"HOLY ****!!!"

"Hi."

"Rose, why would you warp directly into the guild hall?!"

Then they noticed the blood.

"ROSE ARE YOU OKAY?!"

"Yes, it's the other guy that isn't."

"Oh... who was it?"

"Demon."

"On Earth?"

"Yep."

Jalad noticed my look.

"Why do you look sad?"

Erica sighed.

"It was an insanely high leveled demon, so she had to go FEAR, and... she won."

"And?"

"Gabriel wasn't too happy with what happened to one of his kin."

"Ah, so she ate the demon?"

I nodded.

"I understand where Gabriel came from... Thanks Erica, for telling him that."
