Stopping the collapse

The moment Asmodeus attacked he released all his frustration, knowing that Aki wasn't at fault and it would be pathetic of him to keep shouting and blaming her.

Asmodeus looked at her and saw the pretty face of the black-haired woman turning pale, and so he shook his head, lifting his lips bitterly, smiling at his childish temper.

'Well, thanks to that, I am only half as pissed... let's find her.' 

His raven wings grew with a tinge of pain as they tore his back, and unfurled, beautiful, glossy feathers fluttered across the guest room, causing Aki and the other elves to gasp.

"Asmodeus...? You're truly him?!" Aki's pupils dilated as she staggered, watching all the women behind him discarding their human figures and transforming into devils.
