<wait.But that demon had no human flesh with him.

he just had...apples.>

<see? Maybe they're not all the same! Ray, he knows this place better than we do. Perhaps...if we ask him,he will be able to tell us where to find the temple and the golden water!>

Ray crossed his arms across his chest
<it's out of the question!>

<uuuuh. someone here is too attached to pride!> Don said making fun of him.

<What? It's not like that! I just want our asses to be safe and sound, idiot>

<yeah yeah, as you say clever boy>

<well ... we should start with the research, time is limited> said Gilda and the four split into their assigned pairs and began to explore the area.

Hours passed, but the searches did not bring any results.
<Are we sure we're in the right place?> Emma asked, walking next to the raven

<According to the information we found in the book, yes. We need to check the last district over there. I hope Don and Gilda found something or else it was all in vain-Emma?>

Ray stopped when he noticed that the orange-haired girl suddenly stopped, staring in one direction.

<what are you looking at, little angel?>

<look! that stall does not sell human flesh...>

Emma turned to Ray, who blinked a couple of times
<no emma. It's dangerous. >

<I just wanna see what they sell! I will not waste our time. I promise!>

<alright ...> he sighed and they both walked to the stall.
There were handmade bracelets, necklaces, rings and other accessories.

A demon girl approached them smiling.
<hi little demon! What can I do for you!>

<wow ... these things ... did you do them?>

<yes! I hope they are to your liking. It's my passion!> The demon blushed.

Emma had never been too feminine. She loved being sporty, she didn't really like being elegant, she loved action and adventure. While most of the girls in the shelter wore a skirt, she preferred the comfort of plain black pants.
She wasn't the tipe of girl who likes to wear too much flashy accessories.
and that's what the demon sensed when she looked at Emma,not wearing anything like that.

<you know. I have a perfect accessory for you!>
She took a box from under the stall and began rummaging inside.

<mmmm ... where did it go ... oh here!>
From the box she pulled out a bracelet which immediately caught emma's attention.

it was a very simple bracelet, made with blue and teal colored threads, intertwined with each other. in the middle it had a small stone on which the waves of the sea were painted.

she had always loved the sea. she dreamed one day of being able to see it with her eyes, together with her family. to Emma it was like a symbol of freedom, the same freedom she was now fighting for.

<it's ... it's really gorgeous!> but then she remembered her promise to Ray about not to waste too much time.
<but I can't take it we have to g->

<could you please give it to me? I would like to take it.>
Emma's eyes widened when she heard Ray say those words as he handed the girl the money.

<thank you so much for your purchase! See you soon!>

The boy took the bracelet and the two walked away, continuing on their path.
<why did you do that? We wasted time!>
