"Damn it!"
The way the silly girl rolled around and looked in the mirror was completely different. The main demon, after rolling up, first cursed. However, immediately after, he did something similar to the silly girl. Both were fighting with a one-eared saber.
Excluding their first meeting, when the one-eared saber was disguised as a vendor and they had a brief clash, this was their first formal confrontation. As soon as they started fighting, the main demon felt uneasy—
The one-eared saber, like him, was an agile warrior who wielded two weapons in each hand. His combat style was essentially the same as the main demon's. If there was any difference, it was that the one-eared saber was faster, had better combat awareness, more experience, and was even more ruthless in his attacks!
"He's basically an upgraded version of myself."
Although he was annoyed, the main demon had to admit this. If nothing unexpected happened, he was likely no match for the one-eared saber.
Even though he still had the power of the abyss and some other miscellaneous support magic, the one-eared saber seemed to be holding back. The main demon felt uncertain. He had his trump cards, but the one-eared saber wasn't using his full strength either. If they went all out, the outcome was unpredictable.
However, the problem was that the one-eared saber seemed to be enjoying the fight, treating it as a challenge. But the main demon didn't want to fight. He had a lot of things to deal with. Seeing the female angel flying farther and farther away with Lilith, he knew he had to catch up or he would lose his chance.
So, like the female angel had done earlier, the main demon found an opportunity to feign a weakness and then ran as fast as he could—
"Why are you running in the middle of a fight?!" The one-eared saber was taken aback and shouted.
The main demon chuckled coldly and ignored him— the female angel's flying speed wasn't very fast. This was mainly because the young angel in her arms was causing a commotion, demanding her brother, making it hard for her to fly fast.
This allowed the main demon to catch up with some effort. Unlike the female angel, he didn't shout before making his move.
He approached silently— the young angel saw him and was about to shout, but then realized what was happening. She swallowed her words and pretended not to see him, continuing to cause a commotion to distract the female angel.
Then, the main demon grabbed the female angel's ankle and pulled her back, causing her to fall from the sky with a "thud."
This fall was much heavier than the previous one. The previous fall had been cushioned by rolling, but this time, she was flying at full speed and suddenly stopped.
And she landed face-first.
"What do you have against me?!" The female angel, barely managing to get up, shouted at the main demon's back. What annoyed her more was that the young angel, who had been taken back by the main demon, was sticking out her head from his shoulder and making faces at her.
"We didn't have any grudges before, but now we do!" The main demon shouted back while flying as fast as he could. At the same time, the one-eared saber caught up again, smiled sinisterly at the female angel, and said:
"Female? Not a problem."
"How come there are so many perverts in the abyss?" The female angel got goosebumps and didn't dare to fight him, turning to run instead. She quickly caught up with the main demon.
"Don't run!"
The female angel, not having learned her lesson, shouted, alerting the main demon. He turned around angrily and shouted at her: "Why is it so hard for you to make a sacrifice?! You're an angel, for crying out loud—"
"—If you want to sacrifice, do it yourself! Give me the child!"
"Rubbish! Lilith herself said it's better with me!"
"Yes! Lilith will never leave her pervert brother!"
"That's just a child's foolishness! I won't accept it!"
"I think Lilith's intelligence is not bad— at least better than yours."
"Impossible!"
As they argued, the female angel reached out to grab Lilith from the main demon, who immediately extended his arm to move Lilith to the side. The female angel then accelerated, and the main demon moved Lilith to the other side.
Then, the female angel stopped accelerating and punched the base of the main demon's wings— similar to the armpit, this was a vulnerable spot. Although it wasn't fatal, it was extremely painful. With the female angel's strength, the punch almost made his eyes bulge out.
The female angel took the opportunity to grab Lilith— but immediately after, the main demon, fueled by anger, poked her eyes.
"Ah, my eyes— my eyes—"
The main demon took the opportunity to grab Lilith back. Then, the female angel kicked him in the groin—
"Next upgrade— definitely— choose Iron Groin—"
The main demon, enduring unbearable pain, watched as Lilith was taken by the female angel...
They kept attacking each other, using the other as a shield to kick the one-eared saber, and kept fighting over Lilith while flying aimlessly in the wilderness... By the time dawn came, both the angel and the demon stopped flying.
They couldn't fly anymore.
They were exhausted, truly exhausted. The female angel wanted to make her entrance look cool, so she didn't sleep well and waited for a moonlit night to highlight her image as a cold, stylish, and unique golden-haired female swordsman.
But this impression was ruined in just three minutes.
Well, it wasn't really her fault.
Probably.
The golden-haired female swordsman, to shape her character, didn't sleep well. Similarly, the main demon was also affected and didn't get proper rest.
They didn't even have a midnight snack, just spread their wings and flew over the desert for half the night, during which they fought a pervert far more powerful than them, fought over the child, and engaged in intense physical combat...
By the end of the night, even the young angel, who hadn't moved much, was exhausted. It was even worse for the two of them.
"I can't run anymore," the main demon panted.
"Me neither, I can't run anymore," the golden-haired female swordsman, a four-winged angel, also panted, hands on her knees.
"So, have you finished your mental struggle? Can you make a sacrifice now?" the main demon asked.
"No, no," the female angel waved her hands. "If I have to die, I'll die, but not for you. It's too unfair. I won't do it."
"Then there's no choice, we'll keep running."
"Run? Run...?" The female angel's voice was hesitant, and she didn't seem to want to run anymore.
After they stopped, the one-eared saber also stopped chasing. He watched them with interest, neither attacking nor speaking. He might have been tired too, just resting and pretending to be at ease.
Seeing him not moving or speaking, the main demon and the female angel ignored him and continued talking.
"Am I a good person?" the main demon asked.
"No," the female angel answered firmly.
"But the alignment test magic said I'm a good person."
"That's an academic error."
"But you can't deny that I'm of the good alignment, right?"
"..."
To be honest, the female angel wanted to deny it, but she wasn't good at lying, so she remained silent.
"So, for me, a rare good-aligned demon, and for Lilith, a young and cute member of my race, shouldn't you make a sacrifice?"
"..."
The main demon's words, which sounded reasonable at first, left the female angel speechless, and she remained silent.
"But I just don't want to do it!"
After being pushed by the main demon, the female angel said hysterically, "Why? Why should I die for you? I'm still young, I haven't even fallen in love. I don't even know your name. It's so unfair, so cruel, so... sniff, sniff..."
Her voice broke as she said, "What is this, what is this..."
Seeing her like this, the main demon's heart softened. He put the sleeping young angel on the ground and reached out to touch the female angel's shoulder:
"Can I be your boyfriend?"
"Eh?"
"Although... I'm quite confident in my appearance (28 charisma). As for a house and property, I don't have them, but I have saved a lot of money, so life should be good. I want three children, one boy and two girls. And a dog—"
"I don't even know your name—"
"—Dandy, you can call me that." The main demon casually made up a name and looked at the female angel seriously.
"My name is Angelina..."
Perhaps because of the main demon's serious tone, or because it was now daylight and he looked extremely handsome, the female angel... Angelina blushed.
