One of the demons stepped forward and addressed Alex, asking if he was alone and mentioning the absence of the woman they had encountered the day before.
Despite not knowing the name of the demon in charge, Alex could tell from his sarcastic and pitiful tone that he was not to be trusted.
Meanwhile, one of the other demons expressed his desire to kill Alex, citing the offense he felt from being slammed into a table.
Alex found himself growing increasingly irritated by the demons' presence, even more so than by Kendal's. The demon in charge gave his approval for the grunt demon to attack, but warned him not to harm the valuable female who was with Alex.
As the grunt demon made his way forward, Alex noticed the beads of sweat running down his face, indicating his anxiety.
As the grunt demon was making his way forward, Alex was preparing to respond, but before he could, Aureal took the initiative instead.
Without hesitation, she stepped forward and swiftly struck the demon in the back of the head with her fist. Her knuckles were spread apart, giving her a peculiar looking fist.
The impact was so forceful that the demon's vocal cords became immobilised, causing him to let forth an incomprehensible scream. The demon's body convulsed for a moment before collapsing backward and passing out.
Alex couldn't believe what he had just witnessed. He had always known that Aureal was a powerful creature, but he had never seen her in action before. He looked at her in awe and admiration, wondering how she had managed to knock out the demon with just one punch.
Meanwhile, the other demons in the group were stunned into silence. They had never seen one of their own fall so quickly and easily. They exchanged uncertain glances, wondering if they should continue the fight or retreat.
"Boss, what should we do?" one of the demons finally spoke up, breaking the silence.
"You're incredible," Alex said, looking at her with admiration.
Aureal smiled at him, "Thank you, Master. It is my duty to protect you."
Alex looked at the thugs who were now cowering on the ground, intimidated by Aureal's display of power. "Shit, I don't even have to do anything at all again. There's no point. Despite the fact that I am capable of dealing with all of you on my own, I do not believe that Aureal will permit it," he said, mocking them with a chuckle.
"Master, like you just stated, I will be responsible for taking care of them. We ask that you stand back, as this process will only take a few moments," Aureal said, her voice unwavering.
The chief demon insultingly taunted, "Bitch... We'll get the whore from the previous day in no time. Don't be coy; just put an end to her!" The remaining five demons advanced towards Aureal, with three of them chanting spells and the other two wielding weapons.
Aureal stepped back to avoid being struck and then quickly countered by thrusting the demon's arm forward and breaking it with her cleaver. She followed it up with a strike to the back of the demon's skull, causing it to collapse unconscious on the ground.
Using a series of agile and fluid martial arts techniques, Aureal swiftly defeated the remaining demons and emerged victorious. Alex, who had grown accustomed to witnessing fast-paced action, was able to keep up with her every move.
However, he couldn't help but recognize that only someone with a natural talent for fighting could master such speed and agility in such a short time.
Despite her brutal efficiency in combat, Aureal remained calm and composed, demonstrating complete control over her movements and her emotions.
She seemed to possess an unwavering focus that allowed her to anticipate and react to her opponents' moves before they even made them.
As the last demon fell to the ground, Alex couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at Aureal's incredible fighting skills.
He knew that he had made the right decision by choosing her as his escort, and he felt confident that she would be able to protect him no matter what dangers lay ahead.
Alex complimented Aureal on her incredible fighting skills, to which she replied that she only needed a small amount of strength to win the battle against the demons. She also mentioned that the demons were not very powerful, and she didn't even need to use her magic, hammer or armour to defeat them. Aureal then reminded Alex that she had made a pledge to Asmodea to watch over him.
Alex expressed his gratitude towards Aureal and acknowledged that it was embarrassing to have a woman win his fights for him. He added that it should have been him looking out for her, as that's how all fantasy stories go.
Despite the banter, Alex had a deep sense of respect for Aureal's abilities and knew that she was a valuable asset to have by his side. He also recognized the irony in the fact that he, as a man, was being protected by a woman, but he didn't let that diminish his admiration for her.
"I am merely your servant, Lord," Aureal blushed and spoke softly, acknowledging her role as Alex's servant and her duty to protect and assist him.
After looking up at the sky for a moment, she suggested they head back to the palace to prepare for the upcoming meeting. Alex agreed, and they turned around to start their journey back.
Aureal expressed her gratitude for being able to accompany Alex on his tour of the city, and then surprised him by leaning forward and planting a passionate kiss on his lips.
