Devil Shoggy

Baal children.

The city of Crete. Bakerson Street.

The next day. Morning. Keso, Shoggy and Olivia, the whole team, went for bus tickets to Charles.

- Damn, I got so carried away yesterday that I completely forgot to ask about Shiva.

- Do not worry. We’ll buy a ticket, go back and ask the concierge about Kirisaki.

- Good.

Shoggy was again quiet and calm, surprisingly. This behavior is considered to be strange.

“Maybe I thought. Today no aura is floating around, but it says: "I am here and came for you." It’s like he’s on purpose, so that I notice him."

Keso noticed that something was wrong with Shoggy. He waved his head in the direction of the alley, offering him to follow him. The devil understood the action of the contractor and nodded in response.

“Olivia, can I leave for a minute, I need to go somewhere.” Will you wait for me.

- Yes of course. And where to?

The swordsman pretended to want to leave for the toilet, pretending to be impatient. The girlfriend immediately realized what was happening.

- Oh, sorry, go.

- I quickly.

- Yeah.

Going around the corner, Keso looked around to see if anyone was there. After all, upon seeing a person talking to himself, people may think that he is a fool and call the police.

- So. I do not like it. What the hell is going on with you?

- The last days, I’m very afraid of someone else’s aura. She appears and disappears.

- Relax when it appears, then you will worry, but now nothing has happened, it’s in the air, and figs with it. Maybe it seemed.

“Hey, I'm not a fool to make this look so strange, but you are probably right after all.”

- So do not worry.

- I will try to.

In less than a minute, Keso returned to Olivia with Shoggy, whom no one sees.

- Let's go to.

- Yep.

City Charles. Hotel Crocus.

Shiva sat in splendid isolation on the windowsill and looked out the window, recalling moments from the past related to his best friend.

"Hello, and you don’t know where the Typhoon dojo is here?"

"Look upstairs, i***t, the sign is hanging."

"Yeah thanks. My name is Keso. And you?” Keso held out his hand.

“Hm,” Shiva turned and walked away without even saying his name...

“Sir, breakfast is ready.”

- I do not want to eat.

May stood next to breakfast on a tray and carefully listened to the conversation of Shiva and Loki.

- The mode must be observed. You haven’t eaten anything since last night. There will be a breakdown.

“Am I expressing myself incomprehensibly?” I said that I do not want to eat. Stupid…

Without letting her finish, May interrupted Kirisaki. Standing with a tray of food in the room.

“Well, if you don’t want to, then let me feed you.” I'll put food in my mouth.

- What are you doing here?

- One is boring, but in the company more fun.

Shiva got up from the windowsill and sat at the table.

- Tc, got it, give me breakfast here.

- Great.

Central gate. Ankelas Hall.

Caitlin came to the address that James left her yesterday. A huge building, not at all like in the Typhoon, a gate four meters high, if not more. Different signs are drawn on all the walls outside.

- Wow, never mind. I did not imagine him that way.

“Oh, Kate, you still decided to come.”

James walked up, standing next to her across from the main entrance.

- Good afternoon, James. There was just a free minute, so I decided to take a look, since you suggested.

- Here it is. Then I beg you. Come along.

A new friend took her hand and led the girl to the gate. Surprisingly, for the first time, she was embarrassed at the touch of a boy.

“Why did it become so restless?” Caitlin asked herself and went inside with him.

The city of Crete. Hotel Crocus.

Keso takes a photograph of Shiva from a bag and shows it to the concierge.

- You do not remember this man was here?

- Yes, I recall.

He took the photograph from the hands of a swordsman and gazed intently, trying to remember.

- He was yesterday at about three in the afternoon. With some girl, but her company was not happy. He tried to get rid of, but rather she just got hooked on his tail. He noted, ate with his companion, and immediately went to the city of Charles. If I am not mistaken, their path lay there.

A friend was confused after the concierge's tale. He could not wait to get to Charles. Perhaps he will still have time to meet with him. Only the ticket was at 16.00, and they still had about four hours left before departure.

“Stop it...” Olivia said worriedly.

Keso darted from corner to corner with a serious expression on his face, thinking only of his friend and not noticing anyone around.

- Keso! - shouted the girl.

- Ah, yes, I'm sorry. Did you say something?

- Stop wandering around the room back and forth and calm down. You won’t get away from it faster.

“Yes, but my friend...”

“I understand, but you only make yourself worse.” You spoil your nerves and yourself, looming before your eyes.

Hearing these words again, he remembered the day when Shiva rebuked him for succumbing to Olivia.

“Well, it's hard for me to fight her. You know that I like her.”

“I know, but you only make her worse.”

And it dawned on him.

- Sorry, and thanks. Now I'm fine.

- Already?

“Yes, you know, once a best friend said the same words to me, but I did not attach any importance to them.” Now I understood what he meant.

- And what?

“Um, that’s not important.” I have already forgotten.

Since that conversation was about Olivia, Keso did not go into details and squinted at the fool.

The city of Crete. Watch tower.

There is an unknown demon watching Shoggy. The strange aura in the city is his doing. Talking with his brother on the phone, which is located in the city of Charles.

- Brother, it's time to start. Father will be pleased if we bring these two to him.

“I agree, brother.” Show them the difference between us. The Astarot family will pay for what they did to us a hundred years ago, said a voice from the telephone.

Memories from the past.

“Anihael, our day has come.” Now we have become a retinue, close to Lucifer.

- We? I will become him, and you go home, Inamor.

Anichael opened the portal right on the day he entered the retinue of Lucifer, to send back home for distant lands.

“Wait, we swore.” You said that together we get to the top. We are friends.

“Phah, demons have no friends.” Goodbye.

A friend held out his hand, but he hit her and pushed into the portal. He took away all their common merits, becoming an approximate to the lord of darkness.

“One day I will avenge you and your whole family.” Remember my words, Anihael.

The portal was closed, and the future duke went towards the gate inside the castle of Lucifer...

“Exactly, brother.” They will pay for the sins of their father. Let's start our punishment.

“Let's get started,” a voice answered from the telephone.

City Charles. Hotel Crocus.

“Sir, this aura again.”

- Come on, we won’t lose a minute.

Shiva and Loki rushed from the table, leaving everything at the hotel.

“Well, damn it, but I have to clean up after you,” May said after her displeased tone.

The city of Crete. Hotel Crocus.

"I feel it again, this time I need to go check it out."

Shoggy turned and left the room, passing through the wall. Keso saw this for the first time.

“The devil is leaving somewhere, we need to find out. I didn’t think that he could walk through walls.”

“Olivia, I’ll go to my room, I’m feeling bad.”

“She said you could just Liv for friends.” And yes, go, of course, rest.

- Sorry Sorry. I’m so out of habit.

Opening the door, Keso went to the right side, although his room was on the left. The girl caught a glimpse and decided to follow after him.

“Strange, his number is on the other side. Why did he lie to me? Take a quiet walk after him.”

World of demons.

“Katie, what about my children?”

“Sir, the children of Baal have come.”

Father was scared for his kids. After all, this family long ago grinds a tooth on him.

- Urgently go to them and see that they do not die. Do not climb without need.

- I'm listening.

A girl of 20-25 years old, following the order of her master, went to the world of people.

Crete city.

Keso catches up with the Shoggy.

- Wait a minute. Where did you rush so without saying a word?

- Aura. She reappeared. I can feel her.

The pace did not slow down. Rather, the opposite. He sped up. Hiding behind them, Olivia followed on the heels.

- Then all the more. It was necessary to inform, and not run headlong out of the hotel.

- Sorry, there was no time.

Having run somewhere else about three hundred meters, he saw a demon appear before them. In appearance, he was an ordinary person, only a strange robe, but the horns and patterns on his face showed themselves completely: not from this world.

Only when he looked up and looked did he immediately understand. The being on the contrary is what Shoggy has been worried about for so long. The one whose aura was haunting, and when they met, they immediately realized that the signals were intended for them.

- Good afternoon, Shoggy. Do not recognize me? And I'm according to your soul, damn Astaroth.

- Astaroth?

What did he just say? The phrase given to a man made Keso think. It's no secret to anyone, this name even in the human world, in books, the Internet, films and other sources sometimes surfaced. The swordsman had already heard him.

- Who are you? And how do you know me? Shoggy asked.

- Baal. Does this surname say anything to you?

- Hear it for the first time.

- Here it is, well, it doesn’t matter. Open, the gates of the underworld.

- Keso, run away.

Out of the gate came a lizard-like monster about six meters high.

“What the... is happening.”

The monster waved, and Shoggy and Keso threw him right into the wall of the house. The blow was of such force that blood flowed from their mouth.

- And now excuse me, but we must take our leave. Bye, Astaroth.

That strange Baal from the family disappeared, leaving with them a demon who wanted to tear them to shreds, and at the same time he could seize half a city.

“Keso, he's too strong.” In this world, I do not have as much strength and power as in my own. Let's join forces.

“Let you in again.” Thanks, but I’ll manage. Last time it turned out to me sideways. Better tell me who he is?

- Regents. The weakest demons. They have no mind. Unconditionally execute orders. The perfect soldiers.

“Then where is that much power?”

- I dont know.

Olivia watched, saw the destruction, but no one but Keso was there. So she thought.

“Who is he fighting with?” I do not see anyone.

The Regent without hesitation attacked these two with his large sharp claws, not giving time for a break.

“Caution,” Shoggy Keso pushed aside, exposing himself to attack.

- Ahhhh! - angry swordsman pulled out a katana and rushed forward, driving the monster a little from the body of the devil. Then he took his armpit and hid in the alley.

“Hey, are you alive, Shoggy?” Answer me!

“Alive, alive.”

There are large bloody marks on the chest left by the monster. He was seriously injured. It’s hard not to get up, but even to talk.

“Thank God it cheated on me, damn demon.”

He worried, as if they had known each other for a long time. He worried and, even having learned the truth, looked at him as a friend whom he needed to save.

“Sorry, I don't...”

- Do not say, lie down. Tell me how to defeat him. You said that if we join forces, we can handle it. And what will happen to you after? You will not die

“Y-no, if I borrow your life force.”

- Well, then they drove.

“Wait, this is your life...”

“I don't need her if I can't save my friend.”

Keso is serious. He did not care. Just like at the qualifiers, without a drop of doubt, the swordsman put his hands on Shoggy and spoke.

“By the right of a contract I, Keso Tamioka, will bestow my vitality and my body, in return give me strength to defeat the monster, the devil Shoggi Astarot.

As soon as he uttered these words, light and darkness shone around, yin and yang merged into one whole, turning him into another creature. Last time, not knowing the essence and surname, he used only a grain of the strength of the connection. Now the true power has merged and turned out to be so unimaginable that even the appearance appeared different.

- Wow, this is power. Cool. Well, now let's play with you, monster. You will pay for what you did to my friend.

- What's happening. Is this Keso? And what kind of monster is opposite him?

Olivia faints from the aura coming around, and briefly sees the whole picture. It would seem that no one can see. But a person with a strong will is able to destroy the boundaries between worlds. The girl was just one of those.

“Thank you, it’s a lot easier for me,” says Shoggy in Keso's mind.

- Now, on the contrary, am I in charge?

- Yes, we will show him how to rock it on us.

- Let's go.

Keso headed toward the regent, collecting a strange aura in his sword. Strong, scary, which already took my breath away from such sensations.

Approaching a distance of ten meters, he threw the sword, and the aura, along with the weapon, went towards the monster. At great speed and with great force, the sword stuck into the solar plexus, the regent began to collapse from the inside. In less than five seconds, he simply exploded.

“Oh, damn it almost worked out.” Okay, it's time to leave, Baal’s son said to himself, watching the battle from afar, and disappeared.

“Shoggy, we piled on him.” Hurrah. We won.

- Yeah. And you really are cool. Thank.

- It seems that I was worried in vain, but I thought he could cope faster than his brother. Loki, not having time to start the battle, destroyed the regent. You have grown so much. I am proud of you.

Watched from far away Katie.

“See what Olivia is doing here?”

Keso asked in surprise, afraid that she saw everything.

- I watched, probably. Shoggy answered.

- Olivia, wake up, please. What's the matter? Hey Olivia! - shouted that there are forces Keso.

- Don’t worry, she just lost consciousness. Take her to the hotel.

City Charles. Bus stop.

The company has already collected things and is ready to leave for the next city.

“And there are many of these in your enemies.”

- Enough. This is just cannon fodder. I am more concerned with the one who called him here. If I remember correctly, this is a middle class family. Once they attacked me, then my brother is also in danger.

“We don’t have time for this.” The contract is above all, it's time to go.

- Yes, sir.

World of demons.

“We failed the mission, father.” Ready to accept any punishment.

- Never mind, now it doesn’t matter. Most importantly, my experiment was 99 percent successful. Soon it will be even more fun, my children.

- Yes, father, allow me to take my leave.

- Return to your contractors.

- Yes, sir.

And the children of Baal left the monastery of demons, returning back to the world of people.

The end of series 4.
