200 Evil is inside everyone

[Present.]

Ai and Aren jump into the river with the boy who remains asleep. They swim across the river with the boy, not before they blast the damn bridge together.

"I am satisfied after seeing this gone." Aren lays down the boy. The spell is still keeping the boy asleep. Aren checks the boy's feet. Strangely, the boy's feet are also wounded. Aren ponders solemnly, "I carried him all the way. How could he get his feet wounded?"

"It must be symbolic." Ai's eyes dart to the left and the right. He scans the river. "Brother, I am going to look for my mother."

"I will be waiting here," Aren replies as he begins healing the boy.

The river is truly clean. As of now, it's free of the spirits, souls, or the forsaken ones. If there's no cleaning service, who did it? He walks into the river until the water reaches his chest and bends his knees. He keeps his eyes open. The water is slightly red but he can see things.
