"What, why should we run?" asked Rhys.
"Yeah, isn't he just a boy with some bird demon mutation," Yuna questioned.
"Both of you, shut up and run or I cannot ensure your safety!" growled Gama.
"Pfff, stop worrying so much Gama. Blake and Anna teach this peasant some respect before the Tane family," Rhys commanded.
The other two youths of the hunting party nodded and moved towards Charles with drawn swords.
Gama stayed silent and took out his two Daggers and started to prepare himself mentally for a fight.
The two half-demons started sprinting towards Charles and swung their swords at him. But before their swords could touch his skin they were blocked by two of his wings.
A shocked expression appeared on Blake and Annas faces.
Charles raised his other two wings and moved them fast in a horizontal line at the necks of the two arrogant youths in front of him.
With a clear and sharp noise of flesh being cut apart, the heads of his opponents flew in the air and blood gushed out of their necks, dyeing the white wings a deep crimson red.
The bodies dropped lifeless to the ground with a deep thump.

Charles felt as if his strength had doubled.
'Nice higher half Demons give me 30xp each,' Charles celebrated.
The two siblings were shocked when they saw what happened to their friends.
Rhys wanted to say something but Gama was quicker.
"If I may ask what does an Angel want here?" he asked.
The sibling's shocked expressions turned into absolute fear when they heard Angel. They looked at each other with fearful eyes and then back to Charles.
"O-Our f-family has money if you let us go we could..." started Rhys but he got interrupted by an amused chuckle from Charles.
"Silence you dumb brat," said Gama.
They were shocked that Gama spoke up to them but before they could even get mad at the old Demon, Charles started to talk: "I do not want anything from your Family. I don't even know who you are. Don't be so arrogant. I just heard a cry for help so naturally, I came over."
"And for your question what I am doing here. The war is not over Demon. God wants your kind and all the Sinners gone from his creation."
Gama gulped. His time in infernal Legions came to his mind and he remembered how many Demons died just to take down one Angel.
Green bullets of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"You don't look like the Angels I saw in the war," Gama stated.
Charles smiled and said:" Is that more like it."
'Activate True Angel Form' he thought.
[Ding]
[True Angel Form activated]
A blinding golden light flashed. When it faded before them stood a tall Monster, wrapped in a pair of wings that were covered with golden eyes and on Its back a pair of massive wings spread to the side.
Gama was struck by fear as he got flashbacks of the War and he thought: "Fuck, it truly is an Angel. What should I do? I have to focus on myself, the pay to protect those brats is not enough to fight an Angel."
When the two siblings saw the transformation they dropped to their knees. All pride and arrogance were forgotten.
But Charles didn't even notice them anymore he was solely focused on Gama who had his Daggers ready and moved slowly behind the two kneeling siblings. As if he wanted to use them as meat shields.
"Is there any chance that you'll let me go without a fight?" asked Gama.
"No!" answered Charles in a deep and firm voice, while moving the Wings on his body away and exposing his, from golden eyes covered, body.
The blinding Golden light illuminated everything in the area.
With a shrill blood-curdling scream, the two siblings turned to dust.

Gama didn't even attempt to protect the two from the light. He just stood there ready to fight for his life.
The light also shone on the wounded mortal behind Charles. His wound started to heal and his stamina recovered instead of turning to dust.
"Weren't you supposed to protect them?" asked Charles.
"Yes, I was. So? Do you think I would sacrifice my life for two dumb half Demons?" Gama retorted.
"No heroes among Demons are there?" asked Charles smugly.
"Not for 50 Gold coins a Month," replied Gama.
Charles levitated one of the swords, that lay next to the two decapitated corpses, towards him.
And activated his {Flaming Sword} ability.
The sword began to burn with a white flame that radianced a bit of a golden shimmer.
He pointed it towards Gama, who in return moved into a fighting stance ready to fight.
