Capítulo 254: INTERLUDE. The trap

The two messages came almost at the same time, interrupting Rey and Ashe's pleasant pastime of catching and killing spreading demons. The content of them, though, differed like Hell and Heaven. Rey found it to be an amusing coincidence. His companion had a different, much more focused opinion.

Even if he deserved it, even if it was beautiful, Rey didn't want to be on the receiving end of it. Erupting volcanoes were something any reasonable person would prefer to watch from afar.
