“Aba Davies…”
Hearing this name, the cloaked figure’s mind went blank because this was her name. Her legal name, given to her by her parents in the presence of all her family members and elders. This Name was supposed to have died decades ago along with her family. Why does a teenager from a third-rate city in the Southern region know this name? What else does he know? How much does he know?
“Aba Davis, if I am correct, that’s your legal name, right!” Getting the name of the cloaked figure from her grimoire’s status page was not a big deal when Hive AI hacked into her grimoire to track her real-time location back to the Central Academic City.
“Nope, you got the wrong person.” Saying that the Cloaked figure was about to detonate her clone. Feeling the anomaly in her soul pathway arrangements, I wanted to stop her, but I was too late!
*Booom!” The Cloaked figure blew herself up. It seems my calculations were wrong. Instead of getting curious about how I knew her name, she got frightened and blew her clone up.
“Fuck!” I cussed as gore, and brain matter covered me for the second time. I was starting to regret not buying a cleaning card.
Letting out my anger, I gave the two calamity daughter gems of Stone viltronians lying on the ground permission to reform their body and return to the monster Orb. Having collected my pets, I stood on the ground covered with blood, minced flesh, and bone, looking at the array isolating this block from the rest of the city to ensure that the Aba Davies, the devil spawn, had left the city for good. I had no ambush or assassination attempt to worry about from her side for now.
*Crack!* The invisible compressed space wall separating the Burger empire block from the rest of the city cracked as a feminine figure flew in.
“Awe, look at you. I take my eye off you for one second, and you soil yourself. Did you miss this pretty sister?” Who else other than Anna. For the first time, I was grateful to see her as she had a high-grade cleaning card.
“What took you so long?” I asked. When the Aba wreaked havoc in the city, I thought the southern watch soldier would be the first to respond, but as the classic cop cliche, they too were late and arrived too late. Thankfully the people had been taken care of.
“Those demon pests ambushed the military base too. They seem to be after the dungeon relocation apparatus. It took a while for me to exterminate them. Anyway, why are you complaining? You seem to have handled the things on your end?” Hearing Anna, I knew that attacking the city was not the demon cult’s plan but a personal vendetta mission of Aba Davies.
From my conversation with Aba, I knew she seemed to hate Anna with a burning passion and wanted to see her hurt more than anything else in the world. So Aba attacked the city out of her own accord to kill me, a person who Anna had taken fancy to. So that she could indirectly inflict pain on Anna, it was clear that this whole ordeal was related to Anna, not me. I was being targeted because Anna had taken a fancy to me. This was not a news to me as I always thought that I would be targeted because of Anna. But I believed it would be one of her ex-lovers or admirers but not a demon cult hoe with a grudge against Anna.
“No, she escaped. To be accurate, she was never here, to begin with. So I don’t know if saying that she escaped would be accurate.” I said, trying to find the right words to explain what happened.
“You are making no sense. Add more details, and don’t forget the context for me to understand what you are saying.” Anna’s brows narrowed, unable to understand what I was saying.
“Before that, how long are you going to make me wait before you use your dirt purge card on me?” I ask Anna.
“Geez, how am I supposed to know if you don’t ask? If I were your girlfriend, it would be another matter.” Anna responded, but I did not see her summon her grimoire to use dirt purge on me.
“Yes. I am sorry. So please, will you use your dirt purge on me now. I cannot stand being covered in slimy human remains.” Being polite and humble gets the job done when you don’t want to answer specific questions like, for example, Am I your girlfriend?
“Avoid all you want, but you will be mine, sooner or later. Dirt Purge, Activate!” Hearing Anna’s declaration, I felt a chill on my spine, but the experience of Dirt Purge that followed right after made my nerves loosen a little.
“Anna, by chance, do you happen to know Aba Davies? She seems to hate you with a burning passion, and her life’s goal appears to be to inflict pain on you.” I asked Anna. After all, Aba was her mortal enemy. If anybody needs to be cautious about her, then Anna came next, right after all the heterosexual men in the world. Yep, Abe Davies was the mortal enemy of Mankind first than Anna.
“Aba Davies! So a rat has managed to escape the massacre decades ago and come back to bite me. Which direction did she flee? Maybe I can catch up to her.” Anna asked with a serious expression. I had never seen her so serious about anything so far. Silver milk powder excluded, of course.
“I don’t know. She wasn’t personally here. Her clones were here wreaking havoc while she controlled them remotely. And I think that the last one of the clones just blew up on my face.” I hid the fact that I knew the location of Aba from Anna because I wanted to put an end to the enemy of mankind with my own hands and obviously get the devil skull in her possession. After all, that’s a demigod realm ingredient. I would be a fool not to covet it.
