Xue clenched his jaw, struggling against his opponent. There was only one person in the world who could hold him back this easily, and in his current state.
The devil with the lazy smile.
"Veau, yo-you bastard!"
"Hmm," the cobalt blue-haired devil shrugged. "There is no point in cursing me."
K'xug had finished his fight with his opponent, bringing the unconscious demon over. He swooped down with his wings at that moment, and he witnessed the entire chaotic scene.
He paused.
Light magic.
Light magic from Hana.
She's regaining her strength.
He gasped, looking towards the portal.
It was too late.
At the distance he was at now, K'xug couldn't do anything. He couldn't save Cecil even if he wanted to.
He noticed Xue was held back by Veau, not surprised by Veau's unexpected presence. He summoned his sword, sending it flying towards Veau.
At the same time, he dropped to the ground and hurled the unconscious demon aside.
