The tracks lead on... The fog grows more thick... And the Consumer of Souls readies his blade and the Cra followed. Soon a ruin was presented... And an aura so familiar to the Corpse.

-Crow Father.

Deep within the foggy forest and away from the village, you followed the tracks on the ground with your sword in hand and the Cra, Evangelyne followed behind as there is silence in the air... However... Evangelyne looked troubled for some reason... Looking down in the ground before lifting her head and began.

Evangelyne: H-Hey...

(y/n): Mmm?

Evangelyne: I... I'm sorry.

(y/n): It's fine, Evangelyne. You wanted to come along... A little company can't hurt.

Evangelyne: N-No... It's not that... I...

Evangelyne seems to have difficult time trying to form words as you looked over your shoulder towards her... Evangelyne managed to gather what she wanted to say as she began.

Evangelyne: I'm sorry... That I chose Tristepin...

She said while you just listened before turning your head forward as Evangelyne continued.

Evangelyne: I'm sorry... I should have waited a little longer... If I just waited for you... Then none of this would have happened... I-

(y/n): Elf.

You stopped Eva as you stood there while Evangelyne looked towards your direction as you looked over your shoulder once more and rudely spoke.

(y/n): Just shut the f*ck up. I want to get this over with so I can go home.

You turn your head for and continued walking and following the tracks as Evangelyne stood there... Sadden as she placed her hand on her other arm as a single tear is seen...

Evangelyne: I... I'm sorry.

She softly said... Her words were unable to reach your ears unfortunately as you continued to walk... Eva slowly began to follow you behind with her head down. The fog slowly becomes more difficult to see through as you raised your left hand up and created a small black orb, absorbing some of the fog around you so you could see the tracks in front of you... And then... The two of you continued with silence took over...

[Timeskip with Yugo, sitting on (y/n)'s shoulders as the two were heading to visit Emelka together with smiles on their faces.]

(y/n): This... Is not what I had in mind.

Demon: Ah! Horseman... What an odd surprise to see you in this... Childish, magical world.

Soon... You and Evangelyne stumbled upon a small ruin... And before your eyes was a rather fat Demon, sitting on the middle of the ruins with stolen crates and barrels filled with food.

(y/n): So your the reason for most of the supplies going missing? Including the citizens?

Demons: Ha! They're as blind and deaf if they couldn't noticed me. As for their people... I think they got lost while heading back to that village.

The fat demon said, letting out some steam from his neck and shoulders as Evangelyne turns to you and asked.

Evangelyne: What is that?

(y/n): One of Samael's goons. Looks like sweet Angel Uriel didn't completed her work.

Evangelyne: Then what should we do?

You placed your sword away, disappointed that you won't be able to use it now before asking.

(y/n): Mind just going home and leave these people alone? It's obvious that you dont want to fight.

Demon: And you would be correct... However... I'm afraid I can't leave.

The Demon replied, taking a crate before dumping some fruits into it's large mouth as you crossed your arm.

(y/n): And why is that?

Demon: You see... Ahem... I lost my Stone of Returning... What does that mean? I'm stuck here for eternity unless someone were to kill me, resurrect in the Land of The Dead and head back to the Realm of Demons... And seeing that none of these creatures that I kidnapped couldn't kill me... I decided to enjoy stealing whatever yummy they have.

The Demon finished, letting out a small burp as you raised an eyebrow and placed a hand on your sword's handle.

(y/n): So... Death it is?

Demon: If you would be so kind to send me back, yes.

You smirked, excited to try out the sword as you looked over Evangelyne and asked.

(y/n): Want to join in?

She just shrugged her shoulders before grabbing her bow, you then turn towards the Demon and took a stance and asked.

(y/n): Mind fighting back just a little?

Demon: Oh sure... As long as I get to die in the end.

(y/n): Alright~

Then... Everything fades to black...

(y/n): Lets finish this so we can get paid and head home.

And finally... The title "Wakfu" appeared as the title was untouched and silence fills the air.
