It was like the world had frozen around Hero... Everything was moving inch by inch... The blade slowly pierced through the creature's neck with ease... And as the time quickened , the creature's head flung clean off the neck. Everything had fallen silent before it was interrupted by black goo squirting out of the creature's neck , then came someone's voice .

" EW ! what the fuck is this ! "

As if on cue , a figure slowly descended into sight , his invisibility had seemed to diseased with the touch of the black goo , like water to ink .

Hero rolled his eyes, a grin of amusement spread over his pained face , which was only returned with an angry glare from the guy.

" You think this is funny ! ? I just saved your ass ! "

Despite the blindfold covering his eyes , his annoyance was clear.

" Maybe next time I'll leave you to die ... "

The guy paused at the sight of Hero's uncaring look.

" So not even a thank you.. ? "

Hero shook his head in response

" I didn't ask to be saved , in fact I didn't want to be saved . "

The Demiwolf spoke in a matter-of-fact voice , as if the other should have known that from the start . His ears pointed upwards , then he released a growl of annoyance from deep within his throat .

The guy , in return crossed his arms over his chest and spoke up , his voice more taunting now with the words he was speaking .

" Fine then wolfboy , you may die here ... alone... all alone "

He paused for dramatic effect . Although before he could utter another word , an annoyed voice yelled out .

" Reaper ! Stop playing around and free him already ! "

The guy , Reaper , froze up for a second before looking behind himself and yelling back .

" I am not playing around ! I was just about to free him until you interrupted me ! "

He added with a mutter " stupid girl ," which was only heard by Hero himself , who paid no care for whatever the two had with each other .

Hero titled his head over to try and get a view of the approaching figure , though the pain within his body finally had come to life, it seized throughout his whole body , causing an immense burning sensation .

" F-fuck ! "

Hero said through gritted teeth , his claws dug into the dirt beneath him as his breathing turned sharp then ragged .
Why couldn't I have died instead !

He yelled to himself within his mind before all he could focus on was the consuming pain .

Reaper rolled his eyes at the Demiwolf's state before turning to his friend .

" I'm not going to carry him . "
Though upon meeting his friend's gaze , he quickly corrected himself .
" I'm getting to it . . . "
He turned around to walk over next to the stone slab keeping Hero pinned down , and within one swift movement, he lifted the slab up and watched as it fell backwards onto other slabs , freeing Hero's legs from its captivity . Despite the weakened and painful state he was in , the Demiwolf still protested against Reaper as he lifted him up and over his shoulder .

" H-hey ! Let me d-down ! "
He spoke through gritted teeth , though only to have his protests fall on deaf ears .
Now being in a better position to see , Hero turned his head to the side to get a better look at Reaper's friend . He most certainly would have mistaken her for a male if it wasn't for the scent , though that wasn't what had his mind set on... His eyes wandered to the symbol on the top of her right hand , a constellation it appeared to look like .

' Hold on . . . '

He stared at the symbol until realization struck him ... His father's words rung in his head .

" Beware of those who walk among the stars . "

He had spoken it as a warning to the Demiwolf

" They will have a constellation marked somewhere on their body , and that's how you know . "

Hero's gaze shifted towards the ground , his mind swirling with thoughts of the research he had done all those years ago .

' What clan is she from . . . ? '

He shook his head back and forth slightly as if it could help him .

' Is it the Haruki clan . . . ? '

The golden colors on the girl were the biggest hint given that the Haruki clan was mostly known for their vibrant choice of colors .

However before Hero could fully make an explanation in his mind , Reaper had come to a sudden halt , then he spoke in a hushed tone to the girl .

" Juvia . . . He's coming our way . . . "
