"Give me back my body!" a voice rang, loud and clear.

Ning who had left to help Saphandra was surprised all of a sudden. Saphandra stood up on her own, and the spirit that always remained hidden behind her flew out and looked at her threateningly.

"Little blue, please listen t—"

"My name is Aimee! Don't call me Little blue," the spirit spoke out loud. "Give me my body back right now, you liar!"

"I-I will," Saphandra said. "Please, calm down."

"I won't calm down until I get my body back," the spirit said. "You said you would give it back as soon as you finished saving the humans. Why did you not return it?"

"I… I was too late," Saphandra said. "I couldn't save them at all, neither could I fight the demons. They had already left by the time I was there."

"Liar!" the spirit shouted. "If they're dead, then what is he?"
