《In Z Finite》11 - Demons

Advertisement

Zarco slept tightly in a simple bed, he was clearly uncomfortable, not used to rest on such a cheap bed.

With the discomfort dragging him back to reality, Zarco starts to wake up, upon seeing the unusual celling he questions.

-Where... Where am I?

He then hears a female voice speaking in an excited tone.

-You finally woke up!

Still a little drowsy, Zarco tries to look to the side trying to track the source of that voice.

Zarco is then surprised by the sight of a muscular arm.

-Huh?!

He sees a muscular young woman staring at him kindly while speaking.

- Calm down, you're safe.

Before she says anything else, the assassin that saved Zarco starts speaking while he leans on the door

-If it wasn't for the work I had saving you, I could have killed more angels...

She then says in an irritated tone.

-What have we already talked about this story of killing angels?!

Assassin

-That it's not nice to risk myself just to go kill that filthy scum...

Woman

-So you go and do what?!

Assassin

-I go there alone to kill the filthy scum...

Woman

-Honestly, you're hopeless! First you started attacking entire patrols by yourself and now you're invading the capital at the risk of one of our only pegasus!

Assassin

-It was the first time, I just did it once, so what's the problem?!

The assassin then speaks while making air quotes.

-And if I hadn't done that, you wouldn't have this precious patient of yours for you to spend hours on end "saving" his life.

Zarco

-Wait, what she did to me?

Assassin

-She treated your wounds and stuff.

Zarco

-How is that not saving my life?

Assassin

-Hey, I never said that she didn't.

Zarco

-But you implied.

Assassin

-I just think that it was a waste of her time, I am sure if we left you long enough on the bed the bleeding would stop, eventually.

Zarco just stares at him, not believing what he had just heard

Woman

-He was almost dying when you brought him here, I couldn't just leave him there, and what are the air quotes for? Did you get jealous?

Assassin

-Yes! This worm was supposed to be dead!

Woman

-Hey! It's okay to hate angels, but not one of ours! Do you understand Morie?

Zarco starts laughing

-Morie...

"Morie" stares at him with hate in his eyes

-For you it's Morietur Sanguine.

Zarco

-Wow, calm down Morie.

Morietur steps forward to drive the blade attached to his wrist into Zarco's face.

The woman takes a firm hold of Morietur's arm and stares at him with a frightening look.

Morietur

-Let me go, I'll kill him!

She lands a punch in the pit of Morietur's stomach.

Morietur lies on the floor with his hand on his stomach, moaning in pain.

The woman then turns to Zarco with a sweet smile and says.

-Sorry, sometimes Morie gets a little carried away.

Zarco

-Yeah... "a little".

Zarco starts looking at his surroundings and questions

-Now, just out of pure curiosity, where the hell am I?

Woman

-On the ground of the lower island, within the territory of our colony.

Morietur

-In a barracks bed, wounded, incapacitated, and with no hope of escape.

Zarco

-Ok, I think I got it… and who are you?

Woman

-Members of the empire's colonizing mission, coming to populate this island and bring resources to our empire.

Morietur

-The imperial army that came to take these lands and exterminate the scum that inhabits it.

The two talk together

-We are the demons!

Zarco looks at them confused.

-What?
