Welcome To Demon School! Ryūko-chan & Iruma-kun [Volume III]

Chapter VIII Part II [Dominion of Regalia]

  The cover of dark brings terror to all in fear of witching hours. Pray tell, readers. Could such be caused in roots of inevitable escape from nocturnal predators stalking prey and competitors, or simply the lost luminescence of any sorts being out of reach to seek guiding refuge in these times under faraway stars? Whatever may it be, most unacquainted netizens down in where most call Hell, are not too different from humankind. The fear of getting lost, the dark itself, being eaten alive, and many other factors where all sinners may never comprehend. But amongst all who cower of nightfall's black skies, there are some individuals who honed great courage and strengths to pierce through the tugs of their hearts for incredible hunts across the demonic lands.

  Leaping from angle to angle in the speed of light descended Levina Kaminari- lone Pikachu demoness of rebellion. She had just slained a couple of Steak Bats and a handful of Numbing Spicy Boars for her taking. She pulled down her leather face mask to wipe the sweat off from her face before looking around the vicinity. "Phew. That batch was a tough one to wrangle." Said Kaminari, "Surely I'd have a hard catch with them without those hunting tactics Lavande taught us. Ain't that right, Yanna?" Her half-Gorgon and Salamander friend, Siegfried Yanna, popped out from faux tree bark like a ninja and got at the ground level saying, "Sure as all this Netherworld desires, Le-chan! And I've even snatched some fruits from my pretty surprises." "Wasn't expecting Raim-sensei to get you a special treat, sounds pretty swell of her." Commented the Pikachu.

  The duo took a seating on a strudy tree branch as they shared some of Yanna's fruits. Kaminari was thinking of maybe killing down a few beasts that could be roaming around for extra points they could harvest. It sounded like a good idea, given they know what they'll be hunting for. Yanna thought of using a handful of berries as bait to drag in some omnivorous or herbivorous entities in the areas nearby. With that said and done, it only took a moment to find a nice spot and wait for an opportune second to strike. They used this tactic for a few seperate points. Kaminari then had no idea what to do with Steak Bats, since they didn't cost a lot of points and ultimately decided to cut off their wings with her dagger before using them as bait for carnivorous magical beasts. This took a bit longer to have patience with as nocturnal carnivores were harder to spot, not to mention resisting the temptation to snack on one of her slices of Steak Bats the Pokémon demon she still had in her bag of harvests. Eventually, a few creatures like Chilli Monitor Lizards, Honey Alligators and Leek Tarantulas, savoured some pieces before their lives were taken away in a hunt of wits.

  "Aha! This is a great catch for the night!" Smiled Yanna, "I can't wait to see what else the others have in store!" "Yeah! The fact we both managed to taken down a Tamarind Ogre-faced Spider was by far the best battle I've ever fought in this whole landscape." Agreed Kaminari, "That crazy boss-level [REDACTED] sure got the biggest kick in the ass this afternoon!" "You think Ryūko-san's going to have something against fighting spider beasts?" Asked the Gorgon, knowing their other friend is an Arachne. "Nah, I doubt it because she and I know that even spiders eat other spiders in certain times." Shrugged the electro demon, "I mean, with my hunting combat skills and your sneakily improved charms, this is just a walk in the park. What could possibly ruin our night as best buds?" As Yanna giggled in like-minded perspective. They continued roaming around their side of the map taking down a great worth of beastly produce. From tropical crops to bittersweet cuts, the hunterd these girls got holds on became the hunted.

  Well, that was until Kaminari's ears picked up something before Yanna decides to make a move down below a tree. The latter noticed the twitches, holding back the next jump. "Huh? I can hear someone, but can't make up who it could be." Thought the former, "Does this sound like we accidentally roamed into enemy territory?" And right she was, they soon spotted a pack of large dogs barking up at the tree they were sitting up in. It seemed that flying away wouldn't be the best option as they appeared to have been under someone's spell of command with a direct order to find the girls. "Damn it! We've been spotted, but who could have sent these canines after us?" Wondered the huntress. "Are we going to stuck with this, or will someone give us a sign to get down unharmed?" Asked Yanna upon the situation.
