Re: Slayer - The Flame Tsuguko in Another World

Chapter 40: True Demon, Umbriel

Everyone stood still. Not even moving an inch. The villagers and demi-humans stood stiff in fear and confusion as they didn't understand what was happening. The only people who had the faintest idea of what is going on are the ones close to Kaoi.

The oni maid who still carries her sister in her arms looks on in anticipation.

Rem: Who is that person?

Roswaal couldn't believe what he was seeing as Kaoi told him the truth of this person's existence.

Roswaal: The third assailant...

Meanwhile, the trio of Kaoi, Beatrice and Emilia watches as the newly arrived Demon transforms her water tentacle arms into its regular appearance of a human arm.

Emilia: Kaoi? What do you mean she is a demon?

Beatrice: Do you mean like the ones from your world? I suppose.

Kaoi: I didn't want to believe it but there is no mistaking it. I recognize the signs anywhere.

???: You know It's rude to talk about a person right in front of them.

Emilia: Oh I'm sorry but who are you? And what do you want?

Umbriel: My name is Umbriel and as for what I want...

Umbriel dashes at Emilia. Her fingers encrusted with ice formed freezing cold claws.

AN: Think like Mr.1's finger blades from One Piece

Umbriel: Is your flesh between my teeth!

[Clang!]

Kaoi: Not on my watch!

The demon slayer mangages to intercept the attack before it could get close to his friend. His sword blocking the ice claws that are hard as steel.

Umbriel disengages as she leaps away.

Umbriel: I was only here for the half-elf but if you insist on getting in my way...

Kaoi: I do! And now you'll answer to me. Tell me, Umbriel, whose blood did you consume to achieve this transformation? Who is your master?

Umbriel: So you know about that.

Kaoi: I know everything there is to know, Demon!

Suddenly Umbriel hears a voice in her head.

You can tell him

Umbriel: Well if you must know. The name of the person who gave me this gift is... Ouranos.

Over 400 Years Ago

A golden haired and golden eyed noble is lying in bed.

[coughs]

The man struggles with this cough as it has been a part of a sickly illness that has plagued him for a majority of his life.

[coughs]

Blood is spattered upon the sheets from this recent fit.

Soon the noble hears a knock on his door. The voice of his faithful servant, Metphies

Metphies: My lord!

Zmei: Yes, Metphies?

Metphies: I did it, my lord! I found her for you! You're going to be okay!

Zmei: That's great, Metphies. Send her in.

The door opens and a white haired woman in a black dress walks in the room.
