Azel was grateful that he had managed to study Stella's rune.
While this was far from what Stella had wanted him to use it for… specifically having sex with her daughter, it was still good enough for him.
'I didn't spend all that time walking doing nothing after all,' he thought, sighing as he studied the trembling demon woman before him.
The rune paper glowed at the side of her neck… she hadn't even noticed it was there and he preferred it like that.
'I really need to learn how to engrave runes directly from Mynes. That would make all this easier.'
The blood from her ruined eye ran down her cheek in slow thick streams, painting the ground like a puddle.
Azel squatted down so he was eye level with her, raising his dagger up.
"So, are you going to talk?" he asked casually, twirling the blade in his hand.
The demon woman flinched and instinctively pushed herself away using her leg, dragging herself backward until her back pressed against the cold wall.
