"I heard there was a party going on here...hope you won't mind the intrusion?" resonated a voice from the hole. At first, I wasn't able to perceive the figure responsible for the explosion as the people running like a herd of bulls, made it impossible. Even after they left I still had trouble distinguishing it, as the smoke was making the task difficult. I couldn't sense where he was exactly.

So, I decided to move to see if I could get a better view and it may have been the better decision I've ever made as something flew beside me and brushed my hair and pulverized the wall behind me "oh! I missed you, such a shame" resonated again that inhuman voice

"It looks like I'm faced with a coward that won't even show his face." I said hoping he'll show himself and it looks like it worked as the smoke dispersed.

I was now looking at a shirtless man with skin as pale as a dead person. Long-chain were entrapping his upper body, and they were attached to a metal cuff on his wrist, he had a hood that was obscuring his face, and the only thing visible was his glowing eyes, there was also little puppets with big head surrounding him with the same glowing eyes as him

"Are you Rhea?" he asked, at his appearance and his little troupe, I just smirked and crossed my hand "Yes, I am. And who do I owe this unpleasure?"

"If you can survive I'll tell you." He replied. Then two of his puppet flew toward Rhea like bullets, but before one of them reached her, they were intercepted by Chax and Adriel as they punched them, but they didn't expect the puppet to explode.

The boys crashed onto the floor buried under a tone of stone "Two less eyesores." Voiced out the demon. Rhea just stood there, watching the scene with an uninterested stare while the demon was smiling at his achievement.

But it wasn't for long, as a flash of lightning from nowhere hit him, and it was his turn to be on the floor. "It's the opposite, you'll only be able to tell us your name if you're able to survive." Zagar stated furiously as his eyes glowed grey, and placed himself in front of the demon.

The demon just started laughing then got up, not even a scratch on his body, besides his hoodie that was gone which allowed us to witness his atrociousness in all its glory. He had no skin only flesh on his face, and it looked a little burned. "It looks like we're going to have fun." He exclaimed in ecstasy still laughing.

When he was laughing the resounding stiletto hitting the floor could be heard in the background; it was Rhea making her way to a chair that was still unharmed from all the tumult then sat on it crossing her legs and arms, with a boring expression. "Did you already give up? After I showed just a little bit of my power?" voiced out the demon.

"On the contrary, I'm just getting comfortable to enjoy the show better." Rhea said her smirk as demoniac as his "Wha-" he started but the sound of a rock crashing got his attention, the two boys he thought he got rid off, were sprouting out from a mountain of rocks and pebble, lifting it like it was nothing.

They were also unscratched, only that their shirts were so ripped that they almost seemed shirtless, and their eyes were glowing with a dangerous glint. Adriel had dark pastel purple while Chax had a green color, and they were giving off a dangerous aura.

The demon started getting a strange emotion, he wasn't able to grasp at this turn of event, he wasn't informed of any strong demon other than him was supposed to be in the human world, so there should be no problem in defeating these demons, but his senses were screaming that he was in danger.

He was able to get himself together as he lifted his hand, then immediately four of his puppet flew toward the boys at high speed, but they suddenly disappeared only to reappear right behind him exploding. However, the demon was able in a split of a second to avoid the shock and move away from his position, protecting himself from the explosion.
