The furthest end war between Vera, Fayette, Teddi, Sophia and the Demon Soldiers wasn't any less thrilling than Valentine's and his crazy bunch. 

If anything, due to her skill with the arrows, Fayette garnered the wrath of both demons in the air, she's not a fool, she used the worst arrows against the wings, hoping to just have them lose their major source of mobility and leave them behind.

But once she contemplated that Valentine and Jurgen fell from Miki's back in the distance, whatever hope for a clean escape she had in her mind disappeared.

Now they have to fight to the end.

"VERA!!" She didn't need to articulate. 

"OKAY!" Vera saw that incident as well and thought about the best course of action. 

"SOPHIA, PREPARE!" 

!!!

Prepare for what!? 

The girl wondered dumbly in her mind only to notice how the bear came to an abrupt stop and she was rocketed to the front together with the other girls!

It was instant... the demon that had been coming from behind with his wounded wings, crashed heavily against Teddi's big yet harsh butt! 

*BAANGGG!!*

*GROWLL!!*

Like a featherless crow, he plastered against the bear's butt while Teddi groaned in annoyance.

To the front, Vera who had been impulsed by Teddi's abrupt stop jumped with her Rose Eagle Thorn in hand and intended to use the momentum to impale the heck out of the incoming demon, but her plan didn't go as she hoped. 

*SLASH!!!*

Her knife went through the demon's wing like butter.

*FIIUSH!!*

Fayette who had also jumped and aimed straight at the demon's head, a small gap in the helmet, shot and arrow but  missed by a small margin, leaving a bloody wound in the demon's cheek as she clicked her tongue in annoyance.

She just lost one of her best arrows, but hitting a flying target at point-blank in this hectic while moving at ridiculous speeds would be a miracle in its own right, and perhaps, the best shot she would have done in her life.

*BANG!!* 

*BANG!!* 

*BANG!!* 

*BANG!!* 

The three of them fell heavily on the sand while the bloodied Demon fell somewhere else, Teddi technically sat on top of the Demon's head, had it been a common demon, he'd be crushed into a gruesome meat patty, but this is a Demon Soldier.

Fayette recovered first and pulled the other two girls up, they don't have time to lose. 

They regarded their bear, Teddi, who was already fighting one of the Demon Soldiers who luckily lost his weapon somewhere in this sand field while the other flapped his wings in annoyance and pain, one of them was technically cut in half, the wound left behind by Vera, it needed but a bit of touch to tear off, the mere sight, gruesome. 

"..." This dark-skinned demon, Vera already has experience with this bunch so she lunged first! 

"Faye, cover!" She yelled intending to swallow the bastard's core and have her knife coated with a little more blood.

"...?" Fayette who had been in the process of taking out her knives furrowed her brows, she still took them out and approached slightly but continued using her bow just in case. 

Just in case Vera needed physical cover, she still wanted to see Vera's capabilities and how much she had grown by herself after the incident in the alleyways.

"Sophia! go and help Teddi! go for the legs and wings!" She ordered the woman knowing that the Callisto bear alone wouldn't make it against the Demon Soldier, if Sophia suppressed the demon's mobility, Teddi would have a greater chance of defeating it.

"Understood!" The girl ran, following instructions, she's really not that proficient with the bow, she's just lucky, or at least that's what she considered. 

The girl, cloaked no longer and showcasing a long clear blonde hair, had a little more than ten arrows and aimed them at the man that was causing heavy losses for the bear, it was a purple-skinned demon with plates protecting his key weaknesses, but the legs were rather uncovered. 

She shot a single arrow that went through the calf and the demon groaned in panic totally powerless to evade the bear's paws! 

*BAANG!!*

The demon got blasted away, but regained himself shortly after with his gaze focused on both of them, Teddi stood in between as if asserting 'I'm your opponent!'

...

Fayette kept doing the same for Vera but noticed the latter get gradually overwhelmed, her knife went through like butter, but this demon is agile and nimble!! 

The demon groaned in pain when yet another arrow impacted him on the shoulder, he knows he can defeat Vera, but not with that nuisance assisting from the side. 

"DIE!!"  He flashed like a phantom towards Fayette but didn't expect the latter to be expecting that already! 

She allowed herself to fall gracefully and the demon floated above her, the woman grinned.

"You're easy to read! Next time, don't focus too much on your prey!" Fayette yelled with mockery, the demon's eyes and positioning switched so abruptly that his objective was more than clear, she had an arrow ready from ages ago.

*FIUSSHH!!*

Her arrow went straight through the chest, the position where the heart is, thankfully, Vera had made sure to cut a gap in there.

She fell on the ground lightly while the demon technically crashed on the sand behind her.

"Finish him, Vera!" Both of them know a mere arrow to the heart is not enough to kill one of these bulky dudes.

The moment the woman jumped with her knife in her hand a maniacal expression, Fayette knew that the demon is dead... and she didn't want to witness the gruesome epilogue.

She stood up with the eerie noises of slaughtering flesh and wails behind and focused on the remaining Demon Soldier who is about to be eaten be stepped on by Teddi. 

*FIUUSHH!!* 

She shot a single arrow that went through the feet at a ridiculous distance of a few dozen metres with gales of dust gales, but... calculated with her special eye. 

The demon stumbled, enough for Teddi to do the rest. 

And yet another spectacle of blood and liver ensued, as if connected with Vera, Teddi left behind the core, so clear... devoided of bone or flesh.

"Did you get the loot?" Valentine and a staggering Jurgen approached with Miki, both coated in blood.

They're outside of the city now, nothing in sight, just dust, gales and sand together with three shiny yellowish moons atop the sky, were they always that tonality?

"Yes, keep the swords and the plates, they're good quality" Fayette announced while Sophia scavenged the corpses professionally.

"What about the money~" Jurgen saw his woman do the good work and stopped pretending to be a beggar, bending back straight and fixing his hair.

"..." The trio regarded this with awe, the fuck?

"What? you think a vagrant can have such a beautiful woman and skills like mine? ~ this is the netherworld, guys." Sadly there is no water to clean all the shit on his face, but beggars can't be choosers, he knows that well.

"It could happen..." Vera said, amused.

"Explain..."

"What do you want me to explain? in order to survive you have to appear weak enough to be insignificant, don't you think?~"

"Indeed, but then she..."

"I'm afraid I couldn't get rid of her beauty, I'm proud of it you know? a cloak should do, I'd slaughter anyone else that approaches..." Seeing both ladies that were visually more beautiful than his girl, he threw Valentine a sharp glare, as if this man is the enemy of husbands.

And he is.

"Listen, I have enough problems already." Valentine waved his hands as if he's making business and slanted outrage whichever eardrums his words entered!

"What did you say!?" Both his girls immediately groaned and took each of his arms possessively but also outraged.

'See?' He threw Jurgen a glare, this bastard got him in trouble again, unaware that he's the one that uttered the words of contentment.

Sophia hook her arm around Jurgen's arm and didn't say anything, the sight of the two aggrieved girls was a sight to behold.

"Forget about intending to get any crazy 'arrangements', okay, Jurgen?~" Still, she had her fair share of poison for her man too, seeing one of those infamous 'harems' in front... she couldn't allow Jurgen to get any ideas.

"O-Of course!!!" The man shivered, and Valentine pitied that fool, unaware of his own position.

Two mass murderers would never understand how a woman's gaze can be so threatening.

...

"You can keep it, here... your assistance was very welcomed." Fayette gave the amethyst coins and carbon souls to Jurgen and his woman, they didn't need it, they just took the plates and the weapons, she gifted Sophia the bow she had and a horntail for Jurgen.

Sadly, the loot is great and those swords and spears can't be given away.

"I told you, you wouldn't regret it!" Jurgen yelled, it had gone better than he hoped.

"Now tell us where to go next." Valentine opened his arms towards the endless gales of dust, DARING Jurgen to tell them where to go next.

He can't even distinguish North from South.

The barren lands and gales of dust surrounded them, where could they possibly go!? 

"We need to look for the steps we left before the sand clears it, otherwise we will be utterly disoriented, look for them!" He started to run straight away with a stern gaze, if they lose those tracks, they're fucked.

Valentine understood that's his way for self-guidance, they all set off to find the steps immediately, the more time they allow to pass, the more likely it is that the steps will disappear and hence, they need to do it in haste.
