Chapter 20

  Gregory is just in the bar with General Richter, with them sitting at the front of the bar, as Gregory is just finishing briefing General Richter on what happened at Outpost 0. “And then.. he ripped her head clean off.”, says Gregory. “But that data too...?”, asks General Richter. “Mai got the scans, but you should’ve seen Saige out there on the field yourself. It was kind of amazing.”, says Gregory. “Well.. since Saige set through to accomplish this task and with the given bonus of taking out Demon General Melas, I’d like to welcome Saige on our search force”, says General Richter. “Thank you sir.”, says Gregory. “Give thanks to Saige.”, says General Richter.

  Later on, Gregory, Mai, Kelsey, Saige, Jax and Roman are sitting around a table at the bar with full beer glasses. Mai and Kelsey have bandages on their arms, over their scars. Saige and Roman bump beer glasses then both of them drink. Saige then starts coughing and places his beer glass down. “What’s wrong Saige? Never had a pint of beer before?”, asks Roman. “This is my first one.”, says Saige. “It’s an acquired taste”, Mai says right before drinking a bit then stopping, then continuing to talk. “You’ll probably get used to it.” “Alright alright.”, says Jax. “Here’s to Saige! Slayer of Demon Generals!”, yells Roman.

  They all then bump glasses together. “Guys guys, come on, don’t give me all the credit.”, says Saige. “Hey let’s remember it was a team effort too.”, says Mai. “Yeah, couldn’t get Melas down without Greg.”, says Saige. “Aww”, says Gregory. “Cheers again to Saige! This party is for you sonny! Cheers! And welcome to the crew!”, says Roman. They all bump glasses again.

  Meanwhile, at a cave in a mountain somewhere. A demon bird flies into the cave and lands in front of a man in the shadows, sitting on a rock throne. “Azrael, sir...” the demon bird says. “What is it?”, says Azrael. “Queen Melas she.. she’s been slain!”, says the demon bird. “Was it by the humans?”, asks Azrael. “Yes, with the help of a demon on their side.”, says the demon bird. “You said a demon? Working for humans? Was it enslaved?”, asks Azrael. “No, in fact he looked human himself with white long hair and light skin, but he has the ability to grow horns, claws and a tail. And he had the ability to control fire. He also seemed to work with the humans completely of his own free will.”, says the demon bird.

  “Interesting. I want to know where this demon is residing now.”, says Azrael. “Currently should be residing at Strife Village.”, says the demon bird.

  “I see. I will keep a watchful eye over this demon. As for the other demon birds, tell them to continue keeping watch over Outpost 0. One more thing, does this demon have a name?”, says Azrael. ““Saige” is what I heard, sir.”, says the demon bird.

  ““Saige”. Yes, I will keep a watchful eye on this “Saige”, for the time being.”, says Azrael.
