Tammy was getting that feeling, that feeling she got some years back, and that feeling he got when he saw Luis using fire ability to fight demons in the forest, that feeling like a shockwave running down her spines.
Some years back she and her father had been faced by a demon which had suddenly blocked them as soon as her father was about to catch a demon who they had seen on the street carrying a bag.
The demon with the bag escaped through the alley but the demon in front of them now didn't look like he was going to run, he had his whole body covered with black clothing and on his face was a black mask with a red line running through one side.
Greg could tell immediately that the demon was a strong one although he couldn't tell what rank he was because he had his whole body covered.
Tammy had immediately summoned her two daggers and Greg had summoned his sword too.
"You think you can defeat me with your useless soul weapons." The demon scoffed, he had a deep menacing voice but neither Tammy nor Greg were fazed by it.
He stretched his hand and a greatsword which appeared larger than the ordinary greatsword appeared in his hand.
The sword looked like something made carelessly as some parts of its blades looked like they were broken.
"I think your soul weapon looks more useless," Greg said.
The demon didn't reply as he placed his other hand on the sword and immediately the whole sword lit up with flames.
"A mystic weapon." Greg gasped. "And one with an elemental attribute."
"I thought that was impossible," Tammy said, noting that the demon had summoned the weapon.
The demon burst into a feat of laughter and then stabbed his sword right through the hard concrete and into the ground.
"I don't think you know what's possible." The demon said.
Tammy gulped on seeing how easily his sword went through the concrete and Greg was trying his best to keep his composure.
It seemed like what the demon was doing here was trying to scare them away but the duo knew that turning their backs on their enemy would spell their end.
"Even with all the abilities, you humans are still pathetic." The demon said, pulling out the sword from the ground.
Grabbing the hilt with both of his hands again, the flames had increased greatly and now Greg knew that fighting him was going to be suicide, he was trying to figure the best way out of the situation.
Tammy could feel her legs trembling, she had never felt so scared in her life, she felt like she would soon collapse as she felt shockwaves running down her spine.
"Burn to ashes." The demon said and raised his sword ready to send it down on the father and daughter and no doubt it would cover them both.
But before he could send down the sword Greg threw three blades pulsating with red heat at him.
Immediately all three blades stabbed the demon in his stomach, he staggered backward with a groan, and bringing down his sword the flames had been quickly extinguished.
With his sword still in his hands, he plucked out one of the blades from his stomach and began to examine it.
"A demon lord." Greg gasped, he had come to the conclusion after seeing all the feats the demon had performed now.
'Are they planning on starting their attacks on Crockel?'
"Pure blades." The demon said with a voice that was nothing compared to the menacing one he had before, this voice had fascination and excitement in it.
"Humanity may have a chance after all."
Greg was expecting the demon to attack them with aggression this time after throwing the pure blades at him but the demon just vanished after saying those words.
Greg breathed a sigh of relief on seeing the demon vanish, no doubt there was no way he and Tammy could take on a demon Lord, that was suicide.
Tammy too was glad that he was gone, but she just couldn't shake off that feeling.
"Humanity may have a chance after all," Greg repeated the last words which the demon said before disappearing and wondering what type of demon would say that.
That day remained imprinted in her mind as she wished to never cross paths with a demon like that, at least not now but right now she had seen someone whom she had seen use fire ability before summon a mystic weapon with a fire attribute.
'He's a demon, Luis is a demon.' She concluded in her thoughts as she quickly picked up the flaming sword.
[ -5 HP ]
[ Your skin has been damaged ]
[ -7 Energy ]
[ Skin repair has begun]
Luis could feel the pain going away after receiving that message, although the burn hadn't taken much hp it had caused considerable damage.
'That was seriously painful.' He thought. 'I didn't think she would know how to activate the sword.'
Luis was thinking of the best way to explain things to Tammy and when he finally came up with one, he raised his head to see a sword hanging above him, and turning to the holder he could see that her eyes were filled with rage.
"Are you going to start talking or am I going to finish you off before you start causing trouble?"

Bright light covered the area just in front of the gates of Crockel Academy and when the light was gone Nova could be seen standing there with a little black bag hanging over her shoulder.
"Now their new idea is to put their school on a mountain," Nova said, looking around the area. "But this mountain isn't too high to be affected by destructive winds."
She walked in through the gate and glanced at the dormitory section of the first years before looking towards the academic section on the right.
"I think that's the first-year class B." She said as she could clearly see the inscription of one B on the class's entrance.
Before she could reach the class, a tired-looking Nicole walked out of the class, she looked at the unfamiliar person for a while before speaking.
"Oh, you are Nova right?" Nicole said.
"Yes," Nova replied with a nod.
"I got your report from Francis although there was no file attached but that doesn't matter as long as you'll be working as my assistant in the class," Nicole said. "That's our class, you can go set up a table for yourself."
With that Nicole left her alone as she continued her walk back to her area of rest.
Nova walked into the classroom and after observing everywhere she walked to Nicole's table and the first thing she saw was the list of all the students in her class.
She looked at all the names until her eyes caught the second to the last name on the list.
"Miles." She said as certain thoughts started to flood her mind.
