"Do you think it was the right idea to just let him go like that?"
Kevin asked, while he turned to face Amanda who was running next to him. Before she could answer, he raised his sword and slashed toward his right.

The body of a demon split in half.

Lowering the bow in her hand, Amanda proceeded to head deeper into the corridor.
