Uta raised Haruto\'s hand to the sky and a blue hard barrier covered both her and Zeno instantly.

The lightning went raining down on them, but the barrier was still intact, blocking every strike while Uta used all her strength to keep it up.

It sounded like giants were storming the earth. The thunderous roar sounded as soon as the lightning made impact with the ground.

After minutes of heavy hitting, the sound suddenly went down and Uta could no longer feel any weight on her hands.

When she noticed, she immediately looked and saw that there was no longer lightning falling from the sky.

With a smile on her face, Uta tossed Haruto\'s hand away and immediately focused on Zeno.

The huge hole in his gut first frightened Uta even though she had seen it before, "Hey, Zeno, stay with me!" She yelled.

Uta began pounding Zeno\'s chest with both her hands so she could get his heart beating again.

Panting with every force she added, tears started dropping from her eyes, but she didn\'t let that stop her.

Uta kept adding pressure to Zeno\'s chest, and all of a sudden Zeno opened his eyes and grabbed Uta\'s hand.

He pulled Uta close while he moved up from the ground. Zeno then used his hand to slap the fast moving fire arrow that was heading toward him.

The arrow went straight into Mammon\'s shoulder. Mammon stared at the spear before laughing as he hovered in the sky.

"You still have enough strength to deflect my attacks, that\'s impressive." Mammon teased.

Zeno stood up from the ground, the huge injury on his chest first drew his attention, he went to his knees and packed a handful of sand.

Slowly, the sand started entering his body while the injury on his stomach started to cover up.

"Are you okay?" Zeno asked Uta with his eyes still fixed on the demon.

Uta was surprised but still stood up to stand by his side, "Of course I am." She responded, "How do you plan to kill this demon?".

Zeno looked at his arm to see the red glowing streaks that were starting to eat on his skin.

He sighed before looking at Uta, "If you don\'t mind, I\'ll like to borrow your power for this battle." Zeno requested.

Uta immediately laughed, "Why did you ask me that?" She asked.

"Eh? Was that too rude?".

"Of course not." Uta replied, "My powers are yours to use." She said before stretching out her hand.

"Okay, okay, geez, where the hell do you think you are? Fight me already!" Memoon shouted as he charged toward Zeno and Uta.

Zeno glared at Memmon, "let\'s go." He uttered, grabbing Uta had he charged toward the demon.

Memmon had a crazy grin on his face when he shot five huge blasts conservatively at Zeno.

Every blast exploded as soon as they made contact with the ground, each explosion caused a rumble.

Mammon stood his advance and hovered in the air wondering if he got them or not.

The place was silent with dust covering everywhere, Mammon waited but still didn\'t get any response from Zeno.

"Uhn? Is that it?" Mammon muttered to himself with a bit of disappointment.

Mammon was about to turn when he suddenly noticed a faint blue light shining in the middle of the dust.

A big excited grin made its way to the demon\'s lips as magic began to surround his body, "Yes! If that had killed you, where would I pic-".

Zeno immediately whooshed out of the fog with a longsword in his hands, the blade was covered in blue flames while Zeno\'s body gradually absorbed it.

The demon was frightened by the insane speed in which Zeno used to charge toward him. Mammon tried to back down but Zeno was faster than he could move.

Zeno sliced his sword at the demon which cut off his gut but not enough that Mammon couldn\'t move.

Memmon landed on the floor with blood pouring from his stomach, he immediately began to run away at lightning speed.

"What is this feeling? Is this fear? There\'s no way I\'m afraid of a mare human." Memmon tried to convince himself.

He turned to look at his back only to see Zeno close to him, his eyes widened in fear as Zeno\'s sword sliced off both his hands.

"Ahhhh!" The demon screamed, then increased his speed, running around the whole district while trying to get away from Zeno.

"Stay away! Stay away!" The demon yelled while crashing through buildings and shops just to avoid Zeno catching up to him.

He got to a point after coming out of a building, where he couldn\'t spot Zeno anymore.

He had thought he had lost Zeno, so he stopped to take a breather, "What the hell!" Mammon yelled.

"I am the demon of greed, the 6th ranking demon, everything I see becomes mine so how? how can I be afraid of a mere human?! how is that poss-".

Mammon suddenly felt a powerful energy closing in from his, he immediately turned and saw Zeno with his sword closing in on his neck.

Mammon had a very scared look on his face, but the face soon turned into a grinning one when his hand quickly grew back.

The demon tapped his fingers, and black sharp threads grew from the ground and surrounded Zeno while still in mid-air.

The thread intertwined against each other and sped into Zeno\'s body from both sides, cutting him into tiny pieces.

But, not even a second passed when Zeno\'s body started growing back, the demon\'s eyes widened in fear again from the sight.

"It\'s over…. Encounter!"

Zeno yelled before taking a powerful swing of the sword and slicing Memmon\'s head clean off.

The Demon\'s head fell to the ground while his body began to burn with blue flames.

Zeno landed on the floor as he watched the demon burn up, a smile hit his face before he began coughing out blood.

The sword he was holding immediately transformed back into Uta. "Zeno!" She called out.

When she took a look at his face, his eyes were closed, she laid him on the ground and noticed that his hands were slowly disappearing.

She paused and then fell to her butt with shock, "it\'s… it\'s happening again, why why is it happening again!" Uta yelled with tears falling from her eyes.

A bright light shone behind her, "Is it time already?" Shuna asked.

Uta looked at her with tears dropping from her face, "The curse… why isn\'t the curse broken!." She sobbed.
