Tesra and Sally were in a dark underground temple while invisible. There was a mana formation and a group of cultists in front of them. The cult leader gave out some orders and the cultist moved their mana into the formation circle. The formation circle slowly lit up and Sally and Tesra wondered which demon was going to come through.

Sally had agreed to live with Tesra and the two were currently just going around the world exploring. They had come across a shady temple and stumbled across a demonic ritual. A black space crack formed at the center of the formation and Sally and Tesra readied themselves.

Sally had fought many demons and she was quite confident while not confident. Some demon whom she met of the same rank forced her to go all out while some were easy and breezy. Tesra, on the other hand, was a little nervous but since she could resurrect herself, she wasn't quite worried, she had rich experience battling demons.

Two fat blue giant hands with five black claws grabbed at the crack and widened it. Tesra and Sally could tell that the demon was rank 6 but its strength was currently suppressed to that of mid-rank 3 since the sacrifice wasn't enough and Anola island currently has domain over the planet.

From the widening space crack, Tesra and Sally could see piercing blue eyes. They could stop the ritual by killing all the cultists but they didn't want to since some rare things can be harvested from a dead demon. Sally analyzed the demon and determine it was a frost demon, if her fire spells were strong enough, she could probably take it down easily.

Ice and frost started spreading from the space crack. The formation started freezing and the cultist close by started turning into ice. Their icy body broke apart and the space crack grew wider. The ice demon on the other side of the space crack sensed Tesra and Sally but it did not back off, the chance to harvest mana essence in a world was very hard to come by.

The icy demon took a deep breath and ushered an icy shattering roar. Strength filled its body and it pushed the space crack wider, every cultist around felt their mana disappear greatly and they fell one by one to the ground frozen to death. With great might and momentum, the icy demon pushed its entire body out of the space crack.

Its body was humanoid, upright, hunched, and bluburry. It's had six long fat arms, two strong fat legs, a long fat spiky tail, spikes all over its body, and a horned six eye-head with a wide mouth. Sally quickly identified the demon, it was an Iganice demon.

The iganice stomped its right food on the ground and shattered the ground while pushing its body up towards the ceiling of the temple. Tesra and Sally didn't do anything, they had prepared a spell formation that would trap the iganice at the top of the temple.

The iganice crashed through the too of the temple and a bright red spell formation held its body. It sensed danger and released a blast of frost around it. Sally started casting curse after curse on the iganice while Tesra kept casting restraints after restraints.

The curses and restraints made the iganice mobile and the spell formation started heating up. It was like an oven, and the one getting cooked was the iganice. Pain swept through the ignice body and it started screeching loudly in pain. As the iganice body kept heating up, it knew it would soon die if it did not do something.

“Spare me, I beg you,” it ushered loudly with pain.

“No,” Sally and Tesra deadpanned.

“You leave me no choice,” it growled.

Mana started condensing inside the iganice body, but Tesra and Sally were prepared. When some very strong demons became desperate, they would condense their mana and combust themselves, Tesra and Sally had encountered this many times during the demon surge and they were more and ready.

The spell formation started tightening and the iganice felt its mana rushing out.

“Noooo,” it howled.

It felt its body weakening and weakening, it wanted to move and struggle but it knew it could no more. Knowing the end was near, memories seemed to flash in the iganice eyes and it closed its eyes peacefully. Tesra and Sally looked at it with surprise, they had never seen a demon accept death and died peacefully.

The two sent their mana perception and detected that the iganice was dead, they deactivated the spell formation and the iganice fell into the temple. Tesra walked up to the demon and pulled out her sword. Sally started telling her which part was valuable and which part to cut and she started hacking away at the iganice corpse. After a while, only fats were left of the iganice

Tesra and Sally left, they flew towards the sky and left a land filled with trees and a lone temple. A deer looked up in the sky and saw the two, it turned and dash away. Tesra and Sally flew high into the sky until they touched the cloud, a pack of flying birds detected them and moved away from them.

The two of them flew over mountains, plains, and deserts. After a long while, they reach the ocean. They flew deep into the ocean and music seemed to fill their ears. Sally took out a small banjo and started playing while flying on her back. Tesra took out a flute and started making music.

Both their music was random and didn't make sense, they didn't have much practice and they just started a few weeks ago so they were very good at playing. The two of them flew while making random music in the air and they passed over light blue beaches with green tropical islands. The two of them spotted some occasional traveling ship, merchant ship, and a pirate ship that was currently attacking a merchant ship.

Tesra and Sally stopped flying, they spread their mana perception and scanned both ships. The pirates had been out at sea for a long time and were starving, they were very desperate and ready to fight to the death. The merchant had many goods and a few slaves.

Tesra frowned and Sally looked at her with a sigh. Tesra still did not like slaves and slave traders, Sally grew up seeing slaves and slave traders so she was partly fine with it.

“What do you want to do?” Sally asked.

The fast and harsh wind moved towards them but became soft and slow upon coming close to the two of them. Tesra and Sally’s doll dress fluttered in the air. Tesra suddenly wanted to hold something so she brought an umbrella out of her ring and held it, holding an umbrella reminded her of Jill.

“Let's watch for now,” Tesra said softly.

Sally turned her head away and looked at the battle, she suddenly felt like holding an umbrella so she took out and held it. Holding the umbrella, Sally felt classy and rich, she liked the feel of it and decided to keep holding it.

The merchant ship had armed and well-fed sailors but they didn't seem very experienced in fighting pirates and were soon overwhelmed. From the way the sailor fought, Sally concluded that the merchant who hired them was inexperienced or poor.

The battle didn't last long and the pirate completely took over the merchant ship. They did not kill every sailor and conscripted them into their ranks. The merchant, though inexperienced, was very rich, but the pirate captain did not think of sparing him since he might send people for revenge.

The merchant was beheaded and the pirates proceeded to give in to their hearts. They dragged out loads of food and woman along with the merchant's daughter. Sally and Tesra sighed within themselves, the merchant really shouldn't have brought his daughter out to sea.

Tesra wanted to go down and rescue the woman but a memory of Jay come into her mind and tell her how everybody gotta get by with what they got. Tesra closed her eyes and decided to forcibly leave, even if she didn't want to.

She moved forward to fly away but saw that Sally didn't budge. She looked back at Sally and looked into her eyes. The two stayed silent and the wind passed by.

"You know," Sally said loudly, "I've always believed in minding my own business." Sally looked down and softly opened her right palm. She closed her palm tensely and looked back up towards Tesra. "I've decided I'll do what I want now," Sally said with a smile.

Tesra's soft eyes widened opened up with a little surprise, even if she expected Sally's word. A thought came upon Tesra's head, a smile rose from her face that soon turned peaceful. She and Sally looked at each other, they smiled with freedom and peace.

Every pirate and some other few on the two ships suddenly felt extreme pain, they fell to the ground clutching at their heart in pain, they then soon died. The people around who were still alive looked around with amazement, hope came upon their eyes. The merchant's daughter looked up towards the sky and saw Tesra and Sally flying away. She looked at them and decided she wanted to become like them.
