Lou let out an earth shattering scream, as he tried to get away from Rei, his veins turned black under his skin, as if the skin had turned translucent and it was a devastating sight.
Seeing that, Iris immediately grabbed a glass that Abby used to drink earlier and shattered it to the ground, she immediately picked the sharp shard to be used to stab Rei.
However, the fire that burned his body prevented her to come closer, unless she wanted to get herself burned.
Out of impulse, when Iris decided to go ahead, a loud bang came from the door, as it flew out of its hinges and black wisp strike the burning Rei.
Iris didn't use her black wisp, because she needed to come in contact with Rei in order to purify the dark magic within him.
However, Rei dodged the attack swiftly and escaped through the window, dropping the merchant and left the room.
