Ch 10 15th hell circle leader's (Delos) loss

Izumi stood up after she punched his head into the floor smashing him into the ground. His head had been given a concussion knocking him out. She licked her lips as she bit down on his neck. (Do know she's going based on instincts and she's unconscious at the moment. They're similar to vampires with their diet in blood. But devils prefer tormenting and cutting up pieces of the body for blood. Delos should be happy she's unconscious or he'd end up more than a messing arm and concussion.) 

She stood up stunned with blood all over her hand and her chest as she came to. Her eyes went down to Delos upon remembering what happened and her body going into autopilot on pure instincts. 

"If I'd known their diets were blood and souls I wouldn't have done this for a change of race. But seems I don't seem to mind the idea of killing now. More than anything if my stupid brother saw me he'd try to kill me for trying to have a meal. This idiot better be happy he's still alive cause if I was conscious and my stomach was winning over my reasons he'd be long dead after he lost his arm. Well at least I didn't suck the pale idiot brawns for brain instead. His brown hair doesn't look bad, these black tattoos is a dead give away he's a demon. And how they glow only faintly he's probably not someone powerful enough. Reminds me in the 21st hell circle is ruled by the female vampire. The vampire Empress Demvetria Gloria Verti Isebella." 

'Now she's more of a threat than this weakling. That reminds me it's been centuries has she been out of here yet. She did say she's looking for a way out.' 

Izumi noticed two male brute demons charging her. Probably Delos' subordinate which she didn't need, she stabbed the first one charging at her with his claws. Her hand went through his stomach,  she then tossed him to his friend that jumped at her with the war hammer. He quickly dodged his dying friend which made her smile.

"Nice reflex." (Izumi) 

He didn't answer her as he came from her right with a swing of his hammer. A smile crossed her face amused as she took to jabs at the hammer. One in the center of the top after side stepping just a few inches before it'd even hit her right side. The second jab she made was on his fingers holding the hammer. His reaction was he screamed in pain as he let go of the hammer. The black furry man glared at her as he held his right hand that she cracked his knuckles. 

"Oppsie I forgot to control my new found strength." (Izumi) 

She stuck out her tongue at him as he seemed very mad. Her body did a backflip when she saw a arrow come at her. 

"So his royal guards has come to me." (Izumi) 

Rather the man, Glen was mad she just mocked them in demon tongue. She was mocking their leader after nearly killing him. This black wasteland that can't grow anything besides these dried trees yet a intruder was mocking them. They who lived their lives because Delos had led them to survival.

"You have no right to criticize him." (Glen) 

Her eyes narrowed as she spotted the archer. Making her eyes widen as she started to laugh at the demons. Glen was angry she wasn't taking them seriously, him and his elite guards. 

"This is but the 15th hell circle. There's 30 hell circle in all with each their own rulers and the laws they created. Your the weakest. Well 30 hell circles a few centuries back when I lived here. I'm sure by now the hell cicles extend more than that since it develops faster than a dungeon. The more you head down the stronger the monsters within. But yet you weaklings think your the strongest. Pft....hahahaha, if anything this is just the start of the outer rings. But I got to say you did well to raise a orphan Vetric, or you can say your archer is a one of a kind race. A race of assassins their blood is full of poison, they're supposedly taught at a young age about their race abilities and how to use it. Another name is the reaper's poison masters for their race. But if anything that's the name every other race gave them. I'm surprised she has Avery bloodline in her. A race of long lost life dragon king's lineage. What a rare find. Life dragons have been lost through the ages. " 

"Your not making since intruder." (Glen) 

"Let's just say your little friend is a rare find. I guess me coming her isn't a lost at all. Maybe a memory wipe would do and retraining her to use her full abilities." (Izumi) 

"May run for it she's insane." (Glen) 

May seemed shocked and stood in place. She couldn't move since she and many of the other guards couldn't understand what Izumi just said. To them it sounded like gibberish that some crazy person they just met had said. She wasn't wrong to tell them the reason they were going to die by her hands because a resource she could use. Plus the girl seemed to look like 10. And one of Izumi's past life of looking at the bone structure she was sure the girl was exactly 8 and they seemed to have found her at the age of 3. Since she could read minds, a smile as she thanked them for leading her to something that'd even make a immortal go insane. 

If anything May's blood can be used as a antiode for all poisons or it could be used as a weapon. Then add to her other heritage of life magic and creation. She was a treasure trove that other races would never let go if they had the chance. Even Izumi wouldn't be that stupid to let this chance slip, she'd rather have the girl than let her enemies have her. That's why she said thank you. If you were smart you'd jump at the opportunity. The Avery race is the life dragons. Vetric is the assassin poison masters race. Combine these two you have a treasure that couldn't be lost unless you were careless. Sure Izumi didn't think of her as a object but she needed the girl if she wanted to face the vampire Empress she was sure the vampire Empress had created more hell circles and monster class demons to serve her. That'd never change even if they are still friends. It had to be for assurance in case anything went wrong. 

Izumi took out her whip and decapitated some heads without caring. May's body shook in fear as she had a feeling of dread. She just knew that everyone was going to get killed by Izumi. Her fear was over ruling her instincts that was shouting at her to run. Glen tried to order his men to grab May and run for it but Izumi cut his legs off with her whip. He let a howl of pain and agony as Izumi glared at him. Even she wouldn't allow him to take her away. Sure she could look for souls but that'd take days. She'll be annoyed from searching by then.
