Erika hugged me tightly. I couldn't help but hug her back. I was happy to have her at my side, honestly. I also felt quite proud she arrived back then and helped me out. I guess I've helped on making her someone strong and brave, she has grown a lot from the little and crybaby girl of back then.
"Are you alright?" I asked her.
"Oh me? I am sure alright! You were the one that passed out in the middle of the battle! Beelzebub, that damn bug!" Erika gritted her teeth. "Well, he still died! You defeated him with the power of the Holy Spirits, right?"
"Yeah, you guessed right." I nodded. "They arrived in that moment to bring me their strength, and thanks to that, it was also possible to destroy the Tower of Gluttony by targeting the Core through Beelzebub's soul. The Holy Spirits did everything, but I did tell them how to do it."
