28 The Price of Freedom (1/2)

”Church's exorcist? No, you are not; you are a freelancer exorcist, your artificial light isn't strong enough” Issei said as he scanned the, gray haired man, or perhaps he is somewhat older than him, probably a year he was wearing an brown over coat with runes attached to it, he was wearing a belt but there was also another strip of leather, probably Issei thought it's an holster, a set of revolvers with light as bullets and he was holding a light saber…

”Oo~, you are smarter than you look demon-kun, my name is Freed Ravels, nice to meet you, now please die” no sooner as the exorcist said his words he sprung right towards Issei, with a light saber in his hand; but on the other hand Issei used his right arm to block the light saber which he then destroyed it instantly.

”No way, light is the greatest enemy of your kind. Why did it not affect you?” Freed was shocked

”Well, that's what you get for considering me a normal demon; little torches like those have no effect on me”

”Ho~ is that so?”

”Tell me, why did you kill them, these humans” Issei asked

”Well you seem so smart, why don't you think?” Freed replied

”If I have to make a wild guess, you work for fallen angels since you have side tracked form your path I hardly believe church will take you in”

”Wow, so correct”

”Since, demons have influence here; fallen angels must have told you to kill any humans who make pacts with demons, is it not?”

”Correct again”

”This must also means you are killing the demons around”

The moment Issei completed his sentence light bullets were fired towards him, but he easily dodged them…

”Correct~ I kill the lowly demons, why because exorcist like us have no place to go, and fallen angel-sama took us in that's why I will do whatever they say” Freed said, as he took out another light saber and started fighting Issei.

Issei didn't want to destroy the house, that's why he held back as he dodged Freed's attack but on the contrary freed was getting desperate, he never met such a demon who could actually doge light, even though the artificial lights are not as fast as the real light but they were still pretty fast….but this one, he is dodging like it someone was throwing balls towards him…

Soon both of them entered the living room of the house where, another human body was crucified on the wall…

”Freed-kun, you must really hate demons to the point that you didn't spare the innocent humans who try to make pact” Issei said, as he saw the dead body over the wall…

”Correct~, activate [Seal: Bind Demon]” Freed said as a magic array formed which locked Issei in a barrier made of light, he tried punching it but it didn't buldge.

”Laws of church array?” Issei said as he examined the array formed

”My goodness, how can someone so smart like you, be a demon” Freed said

Suddenly, both of them heard a voice, a sweet girl's voice…

”Freed-san, I have almost completed the protective barrier-”it was none other than Asia herself.
