As Dorian was walking, he accidentally bumped into Karmine Grace. He noticed that both Karmine and his brother had swords with them, as if they were ready for a fight.147Please respect copyright.PENANA8j81Jz8d61
147Please respect copyright.PENANAUEC4RevU7g
Karmine - Move out of the way, Dorian.147Please respect copyright.PENANA1jAAnjm3hd

147Please respect copyright.PENANAgqyggbJCPd
(I can't help but wonder where those guys are headed, all worked up like that. It's not really my problem, though. I need to get going or I'll be late for my meeting with Luna. She's waiting for me.)147Please respect copyright.PENANAnjGEj4ghjw
147Please respect copyright.PENANA2KO6qpKiuT
Dorian arrives at the top of a cliff, offering a breathtaking view of the forest to the north. Lunadea is already there, standing calmly and taking in the scenery with a serene expression in her eyes.147Please respect copyright.PENANAcAV1qPNBAl
147Please respect copyright.PENANAWhThDF0tbd
Dorian - Wow, this is beautiful!147Please respect copyright.PENANApuvCXSbGXX
147Please respect copyright.PENANAdAsg2l0HKB
Lunadea - It's pretty cool, isn't it? You see over there? That's where my village is, but you can't see it because it's hidden from the world.147Please respect copyright.PENANAVJkn1CDRJe
147Please respect copyright.PENANA2w3Pdjda9X
Dorian - Luna, I'm sorry...147Please respect copyright.PENANAHpey5z9a07

147Please respect copyright.PENANAnHrZYoDt0J

147Please respect copyright.PENANAap7YwGA6cj
As they arrived at Lunadea's house, they were confronted with the horror that was unfolding there. The house was on fire, and Lunadea's mother was outside with her clothes torn and the Grace brothers standing nearby, threatening the villagers.147Please respect copyright.PENANAAznjcV68yH
147Please respect copyright.PENANAsacdJglF7G

Cop - The Dämoneneko w****?! What are you going to do? Oh, I know! You'll die!147Please respect copyright.PENANAxJQlotp4WA
147Please respect copyright.PENANAgRKzWu57qd
Dorian sprinted towards them, determined to reach them before it was too late. Despite being significantly faster than anyone else, he barely managed to intervene as Cop was about to strike Luna with his sword and Luna was about to touch Cop's face.147Please respect copyright.PENANAlDLtcGSN1H
147Please respect copyright.PENANAvZZbuQPff7
Cop - Yes, good one Dorian. Help your little Dämoneneko pet. But what now? Oh, I know, lets r*** her just like we did her mother.147Please respect copyright.PENANAz5T2WKarQt
147Please respect copyright.PENANAhBEPEFacx8
Luna's face was expressionless as she swiftly grabbed Cop's sword with one hand. With the other hand, the one that Dorian had grabbed, she released flames that burned Dorian's hand and Cop's face. Cop was screaming in agony, pleading for his brother to come to his aid.147Please respect copyright.PENANAxduhukQPP4
147Please respect copyright.PENANAViTMv0x5SH
Cop - Brother! Brother help me!147Please respect copyright.PENANAcf9i3Qyqv6
147Please respect copyright.PENANAQPeyTK4fYM
But his cries were abruptly silenced when Lunadea expertly sliced through his neck, causing Cop to fall to the ground motionless. With everyone in shock, Lunadea turned her attention to Karmine, who was trembling with fear and begging for forgiveness. But Lunadea was unyielding, and with a flick of her hand, she released flames from her palm and imbued the sword she had taken from Cop with fiery power, turning it into a sword of flames.147Please respect copyright.PENANARjsFI5hgpX
147Please respect copyright.PENANA9YRYS9ZM2R
No one could move, no one could stop her as Lunadea wielded her fiery sword. With a single swing, she struck down Karmine, who collapsed to the ground as the others watched in stunned silence. Selene's voice rose in desperation as she yelled147Please respect copyright.PENANAjlwdecLCsX
147Please respect copyright.PENANAvKtIjHyBZX
Selene - Luna! You have to stop!147Please respect copyright.PENANAoiDjGQRyp4
147Please respect copyright.PENANATLq9zQuotO
Luna, horrified by her actions, dropped the weapon and started shaking. She rushed back to her mother, frantically asking,147Please respect copyright.PENANAWeQgiZDUIQ

Lunadea - Mom, are you all right?147Please respect copyright.PENANAZybH3nZQgG

Selene's body was marked with bruises and scratches from struggling against her attackers.147Please respect copyright.PENANAk6i2EkN79M
147Please respect copyright.PENANAlmxZFEPKFt
Dorian - Luna, let's get Selene to the village. I know a guy who can help her and...147Please respect copyright.PENANAHI3fjJUy0s

Lunadea - Leave!147Please respect copyright.PENANAvHFxQwv9zl

Dorian - What?147Please respect copyright.PENANAgJ4zoMrbX1

147Please respect copyright.PENANAHgceCJjxcb
Dorian - But... We... I...147Please respect copyright.PENANAGcrDxtlmMu

Lunadea - My mom and this house are all I have! EVERYTHING! Just go, and don't come back.Tears flowed down Luna's face as she screamed at Dorian, and he was at a loss for words.147Please respect copyright.PENANAf5x0KAEhhC
147Please respect copyright.PENANAqgKBH2CZEu
Dorian turned and left, his heart was with sorrow and guilt when he gets approched by another Dämoneneko.147Please respect copyright.PENANA0PbRPHMxPp
147Please respect copyright.PENANAmtnMG4X5VO
Dämoneneko Chief - Listen, Dorian. I'm the village chief of this village, and I'm asking for your help. Can you do me a huge favor?147Please respect copyright.PENANAZxCN18ykIk
147Please respect copyright.PENANANr1jahX5wb
Dorian - What is it?147Please respect copyright.PENANA5uYOO0CsT2

147Please respect copyright.PENANAqnxYnfiEiW
From the north, a group of Dämoneneko villagers appear, with Lunadea and Selene standing in between them.147Please respect copyright.PENANA0SzYbGXaik
147Please respect copyright.PENANACiqoxZ7a4s
Dämoneneko Chief - Chief Grace, I understand that you're angry with us for the lives we've taken. I propose a bargain: in exchange for the two lives we've taken, we offer these two lives.147Please respect copyright.PENANA6EcM51Dk79

147Please respect copyright.PENANAHI9RfbnctU
Dämoneneko Chief - Fight the humans? With what weapons? What army? Listen here, Lunadea. If we do this, we can remain hidden in the woods and all of us can live. You brought this upon yourselves.147Please respect copyright.PENANAslJpzu4Emt
147Please respect copyright.PENANAXUlQ8asOMt

147Please respect copyright.PENANAtraDnzVpwM
The flurry of arrows was about to hit them when Dorian embraced Lunadea, protecting her from the arrows. When they opened their eyes, they saw that none of them were hurt. In front of the arrows stood Lunadea's mother.147Please respect copyright.PENANA639huICgFf

147Please respect copyright.PENANAzHY7JaqNDo
Lunadea - What? Stop... Dorian, what are you saying?
Dorian - I had an affair with the woman you just killed. Your sons saw me with her one day, and you know they didn't like me. So today, they wanted to make me suffer. When I arrived at the village, your sons were raping my lover, so in anger, I killed them. If you let the Dämonenekos leave , I'll come in quietly. There's no need for more bloodshed. They even showed loyalty when they gave up two of their own as a sign of peace. Please, give them a few days to regroup and leave somewhere else..147Please respect copyright.PENANA9vUt3SrDBt
147Please respect copyright.PENANAZh0NPjc2Xz
Old man Roc - Chief, the kid is strong. He's fast as lightning and he can strike us all down. Not even you stand a chance against him.147Please respect copyright.PENANAcAMDyTK1bM
147Please respect copyright.PENANAeInuy91uOZ
Chief Grace - Pha, your grandma should be ashamed! The son of our village heroes, having an affair with those pigs. Fine! You disgusting Dämonenek pigs, you have 5 days. You'd better all leave by then, and I expect my sons' bodies returned to me at once. Take Dorian and dumb him in the cell.147Please respect copyright.PENANAxxcdVYi9Op
