"Anyways, the clock is ticking. Jin. You better clear them before they return back to the actual Virtual Simulation." Kraft said as he walked towards Jin to pick up his No Mercy in exchange for the demigorgon sword.
There is no greater pleasure than to hold his No Mercy once more as he fit him like a good customised glove. The demigorgon sword cried a little to be leaving away from Kraft as if it finally found a good master that it could depend on.
"Don't be selfish. Jin is a decent person to work with. Besides, you can feel some demonic energy when you eat his Astral Energy, don't you?" Kraft talked to the sword and it kept quiet for a moment. "See, don't be too greedy. Sometimes, having some vegetables on the side is also good for your upbringing." Kraft laughed as he disappeared just as how he had his introduction into the dungeon instance.
"Well, all I got to say is that I am sorry you have to be stuck with a master who does not know how you actually operate," Jin said as he picked up the sword and was ready once more to attack until someone came by and placed her hand on the demigorgon's hilt along with Jin's.
"Sigh, the rest could not come because of Kraft's explicit instructions. They too wanted some fun but Kraft insisted on hoarding everything else. In the end, that dampened the mood of the entire group and they all decided not to come at all." She then took the chance to take hold of the demigorgon sword and looked at the mess that Kraft had made.
"Pei." Jin looked up and was happy to see her. Likewise, she too delighted and gave him a shoulder to shoulder hug.
"Master, it looks like you can handle yourself well without me around. Your subconscious state seems to be stronger and more stable than the last time I saw it." Pei smiled.
"I still miss someone protecting me in the shadows."
"Heh, I do enjoy that lazing around especially now that Demopolis is up and running, it is just a pain in the ass I have to deal with their department of health. So, while I understand that Devil asked you to clean this up, do you mind allowing me to substitute you?"
"I have no qualms at all. In fact, I got sick of fighting them." Jin purposely made way for a pun to happen.
"Then I guess, I have to cure that sickness. As well as this sword. Kraft injected too much demonic energy into it and it is too addicted to it." Pei said as she too had inserted her share of demonic energy into the sword to calm it down.
"Isn't putting more demonic energy going to drive it insane for even more?" Jin asked and Pei chuckled.
"Have you forgotten what am I good for? Besides, Kraft is the definition of insanity. His chi energy and demonic energy had the trait of madness in them. It is best that I try to remove it and feed it with regular demonic energy so that it would not be so crazed for more of Kraft's." Pei said as she swung the sword and it slowly turned into a combat fan.
As much as she was a user of a katana, her origins came from using a combat fan instead. Hence, with the insertion of chi and a mix of demonic energy into the demigorgon, it finally calmed down its craze and emerged another pair of combat fans for Pei to use.
"Ahh… They are really quite a pair." Pei said as the Gigan Dragonlings were finally in their range and they shot a huge spike out in revenge for their 'mother'. Yet the combat fan was not only able to deflect it with just a flip of the fan, it did not take too much effort to do it either.
There was even once Pei casually turned the combat fan, and the entire huge spike had been redirected to another Dragonling. It was as easy as flipping the pancake that Jin had no idea how much training Pei used to have to be able to make it look so simple.
Soon, the rest of the Dragonlings did not hesitate to throw everything they got to Pei and the Crane Fox merely did the same thing over and over again without doing anything special. All of the spikes had been redirected and they hit every single Dragonling without none of the redirected missed. The only mistake Pei ever made was that there were two spikes that hit the very same Dragonling, which was an overkill and thus leaving one remaining Dragonling.
"Heh. I cannot believe my skills rusted." Pei said as she took the combat fan and threw it towards the dragonling, killing it by severing its head before it flew back to her with ease. All that took was less than a minute which Pei felt was a decent warmup. "Alright, thanks for attempting to call us. I have to go back to Demopolis and settle some other issues."
"Okay, thanks for coming," Jin said and Pei suddenly turned her head back before disappearing.
"By the way, the rest of the Foxes said hi. They asked you to return as soon as possible or else Kraft would definitely take everything up as his own." Pei said and Jin nodded his head. "Alright, bye for real. See you back in your world."
Once Pei had moved away, the combat fans were thrown back to Jin and they slowly returned to two separate swords just as Jin had them previously. The only difference was that the sword seemed to be sturdier and maybe even sharper.
He then walked towards one of the Dragonlings and used it as a makeshift stool to sit on it and relax for a moment. It is rare times like this he gets to appreciate a moment of peace and silence on top of the bodies his fellow minions had made.
