"Oh wow. Never thought I would manage a straight A in our latest test" Gili uttered happily as she were holding up the paper in an almost offering to the sun. She couldn't believe it. She never gained good grades in school ever.

"Yeah, good job" Declan mused beside her in an almost sour tone as they left the school "Who knew, I could be a positive influence for once".

"And it is all thanks to you Declan" Gili uttered cheerfully and hugged the now surprised demon lord "Because you showed up, my life has been so much better".

"Yeah I hope you appreciate it. I only kicked your bullies and demons off your trail" Declan snort out and looked down at her as he stroked her hair a little.

"Of course, I am. You are my best friend" Gili replied and send him a big smile "I am very proud of you. Who knew demons could heal? My leg never felt better".

"I am glad" Declan mused, remembering how he had shared his blood with her, to speed off the process. He licked his lips though, as he ate off the proud emotions off her "You, feeling better is what is important...".

He was about to say something else when he stopped himself and suddenly gazed over in the horizon. Something was very wrong all of the sudden.

"Yay, I decided. We are gonna celebrate!" Gili uttered happily and grabbed his hand and began running "I am gonna treat you to an ice cream Declan".


They soon found themselves in the park of Paradise city and were currently standing in front of the ice cream wagon. Gili had ordered a sea salt cone while Declan was having one with chocolate. However, the nagging feeling from before didn't leave him as they now wandered through the park in search of a bench to sit on. His instincts were screaming to get away and that literally could only mean one thing.

"Declan, you are not eating your ice cream. Hurry up before its melts" Gili then said, making Declan come back to reality.

The ice cream was really dripping to the floor before him. However, in that moment, his instincts went crazy, and out of pure reflects, he pulled Gili up in his arms and jumped for it. A blast of pure energy hit the spot they had been standing and destroyed their dropped ice creams instead.

"Shit it is really them" Declan hissed as he began running as three energy shoots soon followed.

He could feel Gili cling to his blue sweater with no clue on what was going on. Declan hissed, his arms wrapping around his contractor. He didn't want to get Gili involved, if this truly were them, but at the same time he didn't trust them in not hurting her. Some of them, could be working as rogues after all.

"What... what is going on Declan?" Gili questioned worriedly "Is it a demon?".

"No, it is worse" Declan hissed "An Exorcist. No one else can fire shots like that".

"An Exorcist? Do they exist?" Gili questioned rather stunned. That actually made Declan chuckle. His Gili was still so clueless.

"They exist alright. They are here to get rid of Me!".

"Hu? Why is that? You haven't done anything? And aren't they supposed to be good?" Gili then asked, which made Declan sigh deeply.

"To humans yes. But I am a demon Gili, I am not supposed to be seen as good" Declan hissed as he dodged another blast "A demon lord is not allowed long passage in the human world according to Them. We corrupt humans...".


"Declan, to the left. You are reaching this sparkling circle!" Gili then uttered as she made him jump to the left.
