A Game Of Logic (A Blue Exorcist Fanfic)

Chapter 4

This world is so different from Gehenna, no wonder Samael likes it that much!

The girl thought while she was jumping from tree to tree.

And she was right. In Assiah there was a lot more colors and they were brighter than those from the world she was coming from. There was also a lot of vegetation and the color green was the most dominant color.

While Gehenna was more of an arid world. The blue sun was hitting hard and it hardly ever rained, except in Egyn's territory of course, so a big part of the land was sun-baked and the ground parched. The danger in these parts of the kingdom was that there was almost nowhere to hide if you were weak and an aggressive demon spotted you. So if you went there, you had to be willing to fight. It was not much of a problem for Malika since she could fight almost every demons very easily, but it could be annoying at times.

There were naturally parts where there were humid forests. These parts of Gehenna were even more dangerous. When you were in a forest, you were surrounded by enormous trees that won't let any sunlight trough. A lot of demons were hiding in the shadows of the forests until they would spot a prey.

But in this human-friendly place, the sun was orange like a big ball of fire in the sky, but surprisingly less hot and more enjoyable than the sun of Gehenna could ever be. It was not a burning hot temperature but more of a warm breeze on her face, working in pair with the wind that was gently blowing in her pink hair. The sky wasn't red but a gentle a blue. The trees wouldn't go nearly as high and the young royalty of the demon Kingdom was in plain sight for any predator to see for at least 20 minutes now and she hadn't been attacked yet! Malika felt like everything in this world was so gentle she might just break it just by touching it.

Malika stopped jumping from building to building and from tree to tree and hung herself upside down on a branch to observe the humans that populated Assiah.

I wonder... You could think they are very strong since they wander so carefreely and happily just like that, out in the open, like it's nothing, but actually, I heard from my brothers that they are really weak. If what they say is true, how are they still alive? From where I stand, it would be really easy for me to kill them, right now.

Malika turned her head and saw something that added to her questioning: She saw a little human with it's brood.

It really is pathetic, it can barely walk on it's own. How is this specie not extinct already? She thought sneering.

Suddenly, Malika heard a rustling to her left. She looked towards the noise and she saw her brother, Amaimon, sitting on the branch she was hanging from. She sat up and looked at her brother.

"Hello brother. Could you explain some things for me? I may be the demon king of logic, but the logic of this world is still a mystery for me."

Amaimon looked up at the younger demon and blinked. He looked lost, like if he hadn't notice she was next to him before she had talked.

"Hi Malika, it is nice to see you. How are things going back home?" Amaimon asked, in a monotonous voice.

"Even more boring then ever, I'm afraid. Has you already know, our littlest brother caused quite a commotion. Everyone is busy and nobody as time to play games." The girl replied with a pout.

Amaimon blinked again and turned back to stare at the humans before them. "What do you want me to explain?"

Malika turned her head back to watch the humans below them. She could see a little girl laughing while a man pushed her on a swing, a woman walking with her dog on a leach, a family eating lunch together. After a little while of silence, Malika finally asked "Are the humans as weak as you all told me they were?"
