Jalut
The giant demon tilted his head at the irritating buffoon.
"Hah, no matter. I will deal with you later you knave!" He couldn't help but giggle to himself, thinking of all the way he'd break her after he was done making her pay for humiliating him. But now that that was over, he turned to the far more important matter at hand, that being the little broken girl he had just kicked straight into kingdom come.
His eyes narrowed. Why had she not turned to salt yet? Ridiculous, ridiculous ridiculous ridiculous! He refused to even consider that he'd be wrong about this. His lord, the strongest demon and progenitor of his clan, who dwarfed over mountains and who had blessed him with this commandment, could simply not be this pitiful gnat. It was simply absurd!
He followed the trail and picked up his halberd along the way, whistling a song before he could get a good look at her sorry state. Yes, this was undeniable, if his bones and muscles had atrophied so it would make even less sense that someone so much massively stronger than him, and anyone else for that matter, would be reduced to such a state. The seal would have weakened him, yes, but not to this degree. And looking at her from up close, sniffing the air, he could finally realize something was off. Khahah! Of course, how could he have not noticed sooner?
As the first of the ten, the one who bent the knee and pledged his allegiance before anyone else, how could he have not noticed?
"You smell more like one of those wretched angels..." He spat these words casually, as if getting rid of a disgusting fish bone stuck in his throat. Despite his calmer demeanor, there was no mistaking the vehement malice seeping in his words. To prove the point, it took very little for an armored boot to rest on the maiden's face, pressuring her cheek on the dirt and rubbing it in, threathening to turn it to paste with a single motion.
"Come now brat, you've given me enough fun, so I'll let you explain yourself. If I like your answer enough I might refrain from popping that head of yours like a raisin."
