                               Diablo's POV

I was enjoying watching my master so thoroughly out maneuver that fire lizard that I almost got popcorn to watch. Now however, I am dealing with a small problem that's come up. The Phantom king Feldway is now going against the wishes of my master and is even trying to kidnap or possibly kill the princes as well. I guess even though I'm out numbered I'll need to buy some time until the others can arrive. However I believe that won't be necessary. Not because I can win this fight alone but because I have princes Milim on my side and I also noticed an ally nearby waiting for an opportunity as well. This would all work out if I play my cards right. Plus I can also summon those four if I need to but I'll only ask one to come since she is not doing anything important right now.

Diablo- "Rain get over here quickly."

Rain- "What? Why should I do what you ask of me Diablo. I'm currently busy on a project of my own right now."

Diablo- "Well for one I know you are just laying around not doing anything. Second is that some fools are trying to bring harm to not only our master but also his daughters as well. Come help me show them that isn't possible ever."

Rain- "Who would dare do such a thing! If they are harmed then I'll need to work over time and I'll never let that happen. I'm coming right away Diablo."

Now that I've got her motivated she won't play around like she normally does and with her help we should be able to handle these worms. Now I need to set up my other card I can use.

Diablo- "Are you confident you can do anything Noble?"

Noble- "I have them in my sights and can kill one anytime that is needed. Just say the word and I will end one of them but keep in mind that this skill is a borrowed one from our lord and isn't as powerful if I'd gotten it myself. If they use their ultimate skills to protect themselves it will likely fail to kill them. I'll need them to not expect me to be around to take one of them out."

Diablo- "I see. So we have one shot only then. Wait for my signal and try to be at the location I specify to give you ample opportunity to take your shot."

Noble- "Will do. But will you be alright on your own? It seems like a lot to do on your own and my skill might not even kill the one I'm targeting."

Diablo- "For one thing I'd like you to keep in mind I believe these individuals are just split bodies of the originals and even if they are killed it won't truly kill them. So do try to hide any cards if you can Noble."

Noble- "Understood. If that is so I might have an idea then."

Diablo- "Ho? I'm listening."

Usually when others offer suggestions I don't listen to them but many in Tempest have earned my respect for their capabilities and so e even more so. Benimaru and Zegion being prime examples of such individuals. Noble is also one of the few I see in such a light. If Zegion is the fist specialist and I the magic specialist. The Benimaru is the sword specialist and Nobke is the master of non but proficient in all. Despite only being a saint he has been able to hold his own with even me and Zegion. His story from what I've heard also explains his skill as well. Being an individual who has been fighting all their lives much like us demons makes him a well versed individual when it comes to combats scenarios. And from what I've seen he even knows of tactics that are more for battles of much larger scales than one world alone. What has he noticed that I haven't?

Noble- "I might be able to get a useful individual to cause a commotion to allow us to get multiple shots off possibly. All I need to do is tell Him about the party crashers that have shown up to ruin his opening night on stage."
