When Polemos left Carl's tent to check on Rose and to see how she was doing he was surprised when he saw that she was comfortably laying in the sand ignoring the crowd that she had attracted. There were multiple members of the tribe who were looking and staring at Rose as this wasn't something that they would normally see everyday. But when one of them saw Polemos leave the tent the tribe member who saw him shouted in fear as he was one of the members who first witnessed when they arrived.

"Look it's him it's the Cursed Devil, I saw him when he arrived at the tribe earlier! He is here to ruin our tribe and kill us all."

When there was one there were many who followed after spreading like the plague.

"He's the Cursed Devil."

"Wasn't he supposed to be dead?"

"Why is he even here, doesn't he know that everyone thinks he's a curse."

"…."

There were multiple different responses and sayings from the members of the tribe who crowded around Rose. When Polemos heard all of the responses he just raised his brow and looked around like he was confused. Like he was looking for who they were talking about. When he saw that they were all looking at him. With a shocked expression as he pointed at himself as he spoke.

"Wait, you're talking about me? When the hell did you guys start to care about me?" Then Polemos crossed his arms across his chest and rested his hand on his chin with a thinking expression. "I was never this popular before, when did that happen? Like are they more interested in Rose or me, it must be Rose definitely Rose."

Before Polemos could rant any further he heard a voice yell near the back of the crowd. It was a voice he would always remember.

"Why are all of you here, leave? Didn't you hear the Tribe Leader and First Hunting Captain's orders to stay in your tents. This insect and Cursed Devil are enemies of the tribe. LEAVE!!"

Alyan spoke with a clear and loud voice that surprisingly didn't hold any arrogance or disdain for the crowd. He wasn't alone either as both Ashern and Hassan were with him as they walked over to Polemos and the relaxing Rose.

When Polemos saw Alyan he smiled a devilish smile but, when he heard Alyan call Rose an insect his eyes flashed a devilish purple.

"If I were you, you pissed colored bastard I'd watch your tongue before it ends up making you visit the ferryman. And before you even say anything to make yourself feel big, don't it'd be pathetic." Polemos's devil-like smile was still present as he spoke.

Both Alyan and Ashern looked like they ate something rotten as Hassan just shook his head in reluctance as he was only dragged along to try and make Alyan look intimidating. Alyan was able to recover pretty easily but Ashern was slightly shaking even though it wasn't even cold.

After Alyan adjusted himself he put his hands behind his back and puffed his chest out and spoke as he was above Polemos.

"You need to leave the tribe you Cursed Devil or Mad One. The Tribe Leader has given me the task of making sure you no longer return or if you try then I'll personally kill you myself."

Polemos looked at Alyan with an absurd look as if he didn't quite hear him. "You-your serious." Then spoke with wide eyes and looked over to Rose. "Rose he was serious, like he was dead serious."

When Polemos showed he wasn't even concerned or worried about Alyan's empty threat, he was furious. Alyan then took his right hand and formed a fireball in it as he was about to throw it when he heard Hassan speak up.

"Alyan! What in Ra's name are you doing? If you fire that spell then he'll kill everyone here. What are you doing?"

When Alyan heard Hassan speak he frowned in anger as he dispelled his spell and looked over at Polemos.

"It wouldn't even be worth the wasted mana." Alyan spoke with arrogance as he looked down upon Polemos.

Polemos just crossed his arms across his chest and scoffed. "Really, that's it and Hassan, I'm not some homicidal maniac I mean I'm crazy but, not that crazy." Then looked towards Alyan. "If that was an attempt to make me attack you, that's pathetic. I have something better planned when I kill you then your childish antics."

Then Polemos reached over to Rose as he rubbed her head and spoke to the group.

"You should all prepare when I come to kill you all, Hassan yours will be quick as I've promised. Ashern you cold buddy your shaking, how could you possibly be cold in the desert. And you the small wiener, pissed colored, man-child your pathetic and weak just leave. Oh and make sure to tell Alayah I said hi, I haven't forgotten about her."

Polemos then turned and ignored Alyans group as he waited for Carl to call him back with the supplies and wine so they could catch up, so Polemos could tell his story.

Everyone had a different reaction towards what Polemos said. Hassan just sighed, shook his head, and left as he was preparing himself to be embraced by The Sun Goddess Ra. Ashern started to shake even further when Polemos mentioned his shaking but he still couldn't understand why he was shaking as it only made him furious and started to make him feel like he was crazy. Alyan was trembling in anger and was blinded by fury.

"YOU PIECE OF OUTSIDER DEVIL TRASH!!!!!!" Alyan ignored all reason and rushed towards Polemos as he pulled out a dagger, trying to stab it in his back.

'Why do they always yell when they attack from behind.' Polemos mumbled to himself as he turned to face Alyan.

"Diana's Fury."

Polemos stomped on the ground. The ground around him broke and cracked as a small shockwave followed after it. The shockwave made Alyan stumble but when he reached the cracked and broken ground he tripped. When Alyan was falling Polemos reached and grabbed the hand that held the dagger, grabbed the back of Alyans head and threw him to the ground. Polemos then put his knee in the middle of his spine and applied an uncomfortable amount of force.

"Gods you're really stupid as well as weak ain't ya. Why was I ever afraid of you? Why announce yourself when attacking the back of someone I'll never understand but hey I got to experience it thanks." Polemos just sighed as he applied more pressure with his knee to Alyans spine.

Alyan was screaming in pain as Polemos's knee was in a very painful spot on his spine. The only thing going through Alyans mind was anger, pain, shame, and disgust.

Ashern just stood there in stunned silence as his brain just stopped working as the scene that just happened was something he couldn't possibly imagine.

Rose just continued to relax in the sand and hiss silently.

Ashern was only able to come out of his stunned stupor when a rough hand fell on his shoulder and a thunder-like voice entered his ear.

"Ok, that's enough Polemos, could I ask you to let him go." Captain spoke with a neutral voice.

"Oh and why should I? He came at me with the intent to kill, all I'm doing is defending myself and besides you didn't say the magic word so that I can release him anyway." Polemos spoke in a very serious manner as he replied back to Captain.

Both Captain and even Ashern were very confused when Polemos said that a 'magic' word wasn't said in order to release Alyan. Even though Captain had asked Polemos to let Alyan go.

"Uh what 'magic' word are you speaking of Polemos as I don't quite understand what word you mean?" Captain spoke in a very confused but interested voice as he was wondering what word Polemos could possibly mean.

Ashern was the same as he was still shaking but didn't notice that he was starting to sweat.

Polemos turned his head and looked Captain dead in his eyes, took a deep breath and answered in a very, very serious voice.

"Please."

Captain: "..."

Ashern: "..."

Alyan: "..."

Rose: "hiss."

Carl: "..."

The moment Polemos spoke the 'magic' word everything just turned silent as the only sounds were the wind and Rose silently hissing away. Polemos continued to stare Captain in the eyes awaiting for him to say the 'magic' word so he would release Alyan.

Captain didn't know what to say at all he was just stunned by what Polemos The Mad One just said the most absolute serious thing he's ever said. He only was able to pull himself back to reality when he felt Polemos continued to stare awaiting for him to say that 'magic' word.

Captain just shook his head and released a very long, deep sigh then spoke in a very tired and exasperated tone.

"Please, release the Second Hunting Captain, Polemos."
