Javal’s blood ran cold as he saw the man on the throne use his right-hand man as a pawn and only as a means to more power. It wasn’t fair that such a person who dedicated his life to his boss’s dreams could be thrown out like that and treated like some common trash. It disgusted Javal and enraged him.
Javal didn’t have enough time to react to the fire bolt as he got distracted watching Nami fire a lightning bolt at the robed figure.
He felt a large searing feeling over his chest as he looked to see it burnt, “Argh that hurts", he muttered before quickly raising his katana above him anticipating the demon knight's follow-up.
The two clash with axes and katana both trying to place their weight into their blades to beat the other’s push. The robed man shudders and shakes, feeling the full effect of Nami’s power ripping off his tattered robes to reveal himself. The man has bright white eyes, green hair and his skin color is light blue with many many markings all across him, he is wearing red armaments and his hands are glowing a bright yellow.
“You think that you’re enough to stop me, I’m a god now, I can fully control and manipulate the magic domains to their fullest extent”.
He raises both of his hands and sends down two lightning bolts into Nami’s body, “Heh, you think you’re a strong lightning mage, well I can manipulate anything".
He then waves his hand summoning a large wall of earth from under Nami hoping to catch her off guard.

Nami laughed at the man as she rode the wall up, such a petty trick couldn't unbalance a wild centaur who was prone to charging headlong into a raging gale, even if that storm fell upon her high in the mountains. She stood firm and glared at the man, knowing full well that having access to every element of magic did not mean one was particularly good at them. No matter their masteries, Nami had been chasing storms and riding the winds of Sky magic since the moment she was introduced to the idea. She reared on her hind legs, calling her spear to her hands from the man's body before leaping off the earthen wall.
She fell upon him with a heavy blow that sparked and crackled with lightning, slamming him into the ground once more before bouncing off with the momentum. Her hooves dug into his flesh as she wrenched her spear free again, landing a few feet away.
"Hey now... yer leakin' things... that might be important." She said in chiding tone, as if toying with an insolent child. The man roared in frustration, tossing himself from the muck before hurling large spikes of ice at the centaur. She stepped to the side, then ducked low to avoid the spray of icy magic. She shook her head as she stood up, wondering if the man really knew what he was doing or if he'd been consumed by the very 'power' he proclaimed. She watched as a large, fiery orb began to form in his hands. Silly fool, that spell was not one suited for close combat. She took a quick step forward, hurling her spear straight at the ball of flame. It turned into a screaming bolt of electricity mid travel, punching through the sphere and causing it to explode in his hands as the spear-bolt punched another sizzling hole in his body. She prepared for his next attack, ready to respond as her spear returned to her grasp.

Javal stayed interlocked in combat with the red demon as they clashed for superiority and the help of their respective friends. As they were fighting and clashing, each swinging their katana and ax at each other only to find them evenly matched, Javal noticed something. The demon didn’t seem like it was taking it too seriously, their movements exaggerated and expression almost amused about this, scrunched in a manner that said ‘I have something better to do’. This irritated Javal to no end his opponent thought so little of him, no way he’d show them that he was not to be taken so lightly.
He pulls back and holds his sword in the air with both hands before slashing downwards at the Demon’s head.
The demon cackles as he sidesteps the blow and chuckles, “Oh no, you almost got me”, taunting the fellblood.
Over with Nami the man was at his wit's end and he was pissed, he held his stomach as he looked down to see a large hole with smoke coming from it.
“N-no, t-this wasn’t meant to be, I was promised this world and so much more. It’s not fair I worked so hard that I sold everything I had to gain so much power. It’s not fair that I have control of all of the elements. How can I lose? Lose to such goonish freaks”, he rambles weakly.
He screams at the top of his lungs in desperation and hears in his tone, “Belzel give me more power, give it to me, I know I can beat them just give me another contract once I beat you I promise you their souls”.
The demon just cackles before teleporting behind the man sitting on the throne, “Oh but why oh great Kefin Fejon? You promised me and my lord great things and we expected you to return our profits like the deal with your soul promised. It’s over foolish man, you lost sourly like the pathetic excuse of a person that you are”.
The green-haired man stumbles in weakness still having a hole through his abdomen as he drops to his feet begging and pleading with the man, "Please, please Belzel give me another chance, please. I know I can do right by your great lord. I just need more power”.
The demon scoffs before raising his finger summoning a large hellish portal under them with the cultist screaming for mercy only to find himself falling through the portal the demon fellow stays up for a little while waving to the adventurers and says, “Farewell adventurers I hope to see more of you two in the future”, he then sinks into the portal below and it quickly disappears.

Nami stared in disbelief at the man and his blatant cowardice. She was even more awestruck by the Demon, who walked over to the sniveling man whose life was spilling out onto the ground. A smoldering pit of darkness and flame soon opened up beneath the pair, swallowing both wholesale. With a final crackling sound, like a fire sputtering out stubbornly, it was over. The clearing fell silent, save for the noise of the nightly critters buzzing softly.
Nami walked over to Javal, holstering her spear as she trotted gleefully across the clearing. The fellblood looked a bit thrashed but still in one piece, a testament to his skill and resilience.
"We sure showed those idiots, eh? Trying to burn down a forest for some wretched demon... heh, not on me life, or Taki would have me head on me spear faster than I could say 'Spark'." The centaur chuckled, a light hearted sound that did not seem to fit her prior rage and calculating fury.
"What say we get outta here? Grab a few bits to take to the guards in town and let the proper authority finish cleaning up this disaster?"

Javal held his breath in surprise as the man and the demon disappeared without any further word both were just gone.
A small part of the fellblood felt bad for the man and his followers they had been led astray from the path of righteousness perhaps in another life they had followed the virtue of justice until then he was going to respect their lives.
He bows deeply before the scattered remains of battle hunks of armor here body parts there everything seemed over.
He smiled as Nami walked to him trying to get the guilt out of his head, “We sure did friend Nami! Those fools had what’s coming to them. As for your mention of Lady Shitabko, how is she doing”.
After some more chatter, Javal starts looking at what should be of help in turning this whole thing’s story to the authorities.
He picks up the envelope, the magic ball, and a handful of talismans and artifacts, places them into his pocket, and starts making his way into the city determined to dwell as much stuff.
“So Nami, how did you get to be so strong? You are insane out there I’m jealous of your skill”.

"Heh, the last time I ran into Taki, she was in the middle of building her home... it's been a while, so if ye met her it's probably been more recent than our last visit... as far as strong, I don't think I'm all that strong but then me mentor did always set a high bar... Yer plenty strong and skilled in yer own way Javal, don't compare yerself to others eh?" Nami said, before bidding the man farewell just outside the city. The task at hand complete, she could leave it to others who had better means to ensure things were settled.
As she headed off into the woods to chase another storm, the weight of adventuring life felt heavy upon her shoulders. While she'd only been on a few adventures of such caliber, trying to imagine this week in and week out didn't seem like her kind of life... she just wanted to enjoy the storms, hunt, fish, forage and live a carefree, wildly nomadic life. She supposed it was time to go visit Taki again, to give her friend what little she owned and retire back to the wild life of a centaur with no home or herd.
