Iris felt a hot sensation from the scar Jonathan had been sliced. She saw that demon who became her master walking towards the room's door. She immediately got up and took the blanket to cover her body.
"What about my request?" Iris pressured him not to break his promise. But Jonathan paid no heed to her question.
"Put on your clothes, Ana." He rebuked while glancing with his scary eyes.
Iris was stunned for a moment. She couldn't stop watching him as he picked up the bottle of her blood on the carpet. She hastily put on his proper clothes and stood up to approach him.
Jonathan turned and locked her gaze again.
"Stand behind me." He gave orders again.
Iris complied obediently and stood right behind him. But Jonathan pushed her gently to keep her away from a little.
"Too close." He said in a low voice. Iris smiled awkwardly as she brushed a strand of her hair behind her ear.
"Sorry."
And when Jonathan opened the door, the sound of bullets whiz was heard blindly. A frightened Iris immediately pulled Jonathan's jacket and took cover there.
"Oh god! What happened?"
Iris shrieked loudly without realizing that Jonathan in front of her was just standing while trying to pull the jacket that she was pulling.
"Take off my jacket. Ana!"
"No!" Iris shook her head unwillingly. She uses Jonathan, who is immune to bullets, for taking cover.
"Iris! Take cover! I'll take care of this demon first!" Tommy shouted, shooting the demon professionally.
But unfortunately, the demon who confronted Tommy managed to repulse him. All the bullets that Tommy fired had no impact on the demon's body.
"Enough! I don't like interacting with lowly creatures like you." Said that devil was furious.
He caught Tommy's hand and then threw it like a baseball against the wall. Iris widened her eyes in shock when she saw how insane the demon's power was.
"TOMMY!"
Iris immediately approached Tommy without thinking. She couldn't imagine if the devil could have such power. Immune to gunfire too.
She checked his condition, who was groaning in pain while coughing hard. With a shaking back, she picked up the gun that Tommy was still holding.
"Get away from us!" Iris' words made Tommy lose his pride as a man. He even saw her holding his gun with trembling hands in fear.
Iris herself was scared right now and knew very well that the gun in her hand wouldn't be able to kill the demon.
"Low creatures like you are always bothering us. You should just accept your destiny as our slaves." The demon said as it continued to draw closer to her.
Iris's breath gradually became short as the demon was precisely one step ahead of her. Tommy tried to get up even though his body ached to death.
"GET AWAY FROM US!" Iris screamed more frantically.
"SHOOT!" Tommy shouted to tell her to shoot the demon.
Iris couldn't dare pull the trigger even though the bullet was sure to hit him at such close range. But the problem was that she had never shot before.
And the object standing in front of her was also human. For God's sake, she couldn't possibly shoot someone with a gun.
"I-I can't!" Iris felt her arms go limp. The devil in front of her chuckled a little, then squatted down while touching her chin.
"Why didn't you shoot me? Afraid your bullet missed?" The demon asked in a scornful tone.
Iris closed her eyes tightly. She felt the demon's hand touch her hand that was still holding the gun. The approaching devil allowed Tommy to attack.
He pulled out a knife from under his jacket to attack the demon. But his movement was stopped quickly because the demon threw him again until he rolled onto the table.
"Tommy! Oh god...."
"I'll take care of you later after this woman." His words were full of threats.
Iris's teeth trembled as she stared into the demon's shining eyes. She couldn't control her own hands. She glanced back at Tommy, whimpering in pain as he tried to crawl across the floor to reach her.
"Shoot... Iris... Shoot!" His hiss was still struggling to fight back.
"Yeah, right. Shoot, Iris. Shoot here." Said the demon while aiming the gun she was holding right at her heart.
Iris shook her head a few times. She had tried to pull the trigger, but her human conscience held her back. She prayed in her heart that she could survive this terrible incident.
Jonathan, standing still and staring at her, could only shake his head. Iris, he saw now, was entirely beyond his expectations.
"Ana-" Jonathan stopped when the bullets exploded.
Iris opened her eyes wide after she managed to pull the trigger. But as she expected, that shot wouldn't affect the demon.
"See? Nothing happened."
But as she inched backward, the demon fell silent and suddenly let out a painful roar while clutching its chest. She panicked and rushed over to Tommy and helped him to sit up.
"Arrrghhh!" The demon screamed in pain.
"What the hell is going on here?" Iris was confused and panicked. Because the devil's voice is terrible when he screams, Tommy held his chest as he stared at the demon with his piercing gaze.
"All the bullets I have I've covered with my blood. Unfortunately, I couldn't shoot right into the demon's heart." Tommy explained. Iris was amazed because she hadn't thought of such a thing before.
"You make me so... phew! Thanks for the surprise. Now, what do we do?" She shuddered at the demon's sight with its body limp like a dying person.
Tommy took out his cell phone and tracked someone via his cell phone's GPS.
"Soon, help will arrive," Tommy said, which immediately made Iris relieved.
"I'm glad you called 911 in time." Tommy looked directly at her for a moment with a concerned expression. But he shook his head and tucked his phone into his jacket again.
"Now he's the one we have to deal with." Tommy pointed at Jonathan.
Iris also looked at him and saw that the damn demon was just sitting there doing nothing. Even though he had promised her to kill the demon, now instead, she and Tommy are fighting hard against him.
Then why did she receive the title of an enslaved person? Unfair. But it couldn't be helped. She was too stupid to believe the demon.
"Give me your bullet again. Maybe I can shoot him a few more times." Tommy rolled his eyes lazily. Is he a gun shop?
"I don't have bullets anymore. What do you think I've been doing here? Equestrian training?" Tommy said, getting annoyed with her. Iris herself immediately pushed him away from her.
"Oh, come on! Don't you have any other weapons? A water gun filled with blood or pepper spray." Iris asked in complete frustration with the situation. Tommy massaged his forehead in frustration too.
Jonathan put his hand on his hips, blinking his eyes a few times, trying to be patient with the behavior of the two humans.
He approached his colleague, still moaning in pain, near the sofa. His partner's eyes almost turned upside down when he saw him coming.
"John... help me." He groaned, grabbing his leg.
Jonathan himself crouched down and took out a glass tube filled with Iris's blood. With one flick, the cap and end of the glass bottle shattered. His partner glared in horror as he smelled the strong scent of the blood.
"What are you going to do, John? What the-"
With an expression of enduring pain and fear, that demon crawled away from Jonathan. He could no longer survive because, in his heart, there was already a little blood from the Hunters that made him in pain. Jonathan still set a cold expression as he watched his partner crawl away from him. He violently stood up and kicked the demon until it crashed into the wall. "Ugh! You're a traitor! So you've been the one-"The demon coughed violently while spewing black liquid from his mouth. Iris and Tommy were horrified to see them because the black liquid didn't just come out of his mouth. But also out of the eyes like tears. "Die quickly, buddy." Jonathan immediately stuck the bottle filled with blood into his partner's chest. Iris and Tommy were wide-eyed in surprise, and they quickly fled when the demon suddenly woke up and ran aimlessly. She immediately ran away in fear while taking cover under the table. It was the first time she saw
Tommy, Iris, and Shane returned to the base, and they have been awaited by several Hunters who had been waiting for them there. Shane immediately took them to the lab for treatment while waiting for Eva to return. Inside the lab, Iris could see various kinds of medicines and she assumed this place is the private clinic of the Hunters. Shane then directed her to sit on a chair. "Are you a licensed doctor? I don't want any malpractice to happen to me." Iris asked directly revealing her mind. Shane just smiled as she took some equipment and medicine towards her. "I'm not a doctor, I'm just a scientist. If you want to see my scientist license, I'm fine to show it to you." Shane's words made her roll her eyes lazily.
Inside the Laboratory, Iris sat restlessly for fear that the demons did eat humans. Shane walked to her desk and turned on a large monitor screen right in front of her.But when she saw the picture that Shane showed, she immediately covered her mouth because she wanted to vomit. Even Tommy, who was drinking soda, was immediately annoyed by Shane's behavior.“Oh, man… Can you display a normal image? It didn't pass the censorship!” Said Tommy immediately looked away and looked at Shane annoyed. He wanted to throw his drink can at the sadistic scientist's head."What? This looks normal. These are the scars on the victim's body. You're being overdramatized, Tommy." Shane said with an ordinary expression. Iris, who saw it naturally, couldn't stand it."Ugh! I'm going to the toilet for a bit." She said immediately ran to the toilet.
"Relax, I'm pretty self-aware if I ask for something." He said as if he had no sin in his entire life. Iris rolled her eyes in annoyance.She feels the burden of her life is increasing when Jonathan again asks for payment for all the information she asked for. But the devil has no compassion, she tried to understand it."I already have the status of your slave. If there is a status lower than that, I most likely have no self-respect anymore." Her words made him smile slightly. It was so thin that Iris herself was ins
Iris felt like the dumbest person in the world. Did Jonathan think she was an idiot? She rolled her eyes lazily and put one foot on the bed."I'm not as stupid as I seem, don't worry."Jonathan raised his eyebrows with an expression of disbelief. She immediately felt very hurt."The older we get, the stronger our strength becomes. The devil who killed your parents was a young devil. His age is no more than two thousand years.""Huh? What? The young devil you say? For god's sake!" Iris directly touched her forehead trying to calm down.How many times could she be reincarnated in a period of two thousand years? What kind of destiny is this! And in that long period, they practice skills? She felt goosebumps hearing that."Can control animals, manipulate vision and memory, and predict the future." Jonathan again explained.“What ability is the most troub
Iris and the hairstylist immediately screamed at the same time. Who's her ex-boyfriend? He loves to say weird things. She immediately let her hand from his hand and tried to explain to the hairstylist so as not to misunderstand. “I wanted to change my hairstyle and color because I thought it was too flashy. Can you make it a little more natural?” Iris started negotiating. The hairstylist with a name tag named Wanda nodded and smiled a little, trying to calm down. “Please have a seat and choose the hairstyle you want from our catalog.” Iris thought Jonathan was going to ignore her and was stuck in his thoughts in the waiting chair. But in reality, he was standing beside her looking through the catalog she had just snatched from her hand. "Excuse me? Let me choose for myself.” Iris tried to snatch the catalog from his hands. But he dodged nimbly and walked over to Wanda. "I want y
The next day, Iris came to see Eva who seemed very busy that morning. And after so long she finally met Jack and Martin again. Seems like yesterday's mission was so tough that the two of them just returned today."My honey, Iris? Oh my God! You look like an angel this morning." Jack immediately messed up when he saw Iris coming. Martin chuckled and almost choked on his coffee at the sight of Jack's reaction."Hey, kid. I suggest you don't make trouble. You've had a month off right? I'm waiting for you in the training room." Allan said, which immediately wiped the smile off Jack's face.And Tommy smiled disdainfully because he would be training with Jack during his recovery time."What happened to you, Jack? You usually don't take that long when you're on duty." He said a little curious. Martin pointed at Tommy while raising his eyebrows slightly high."Good question.""Shu
After all the weapons and first aid kits were met, Eva took them to the trunk of the car. Since this was Iris' first assignment, all the members within the base even escorted her to the door."That's all? Are you sure there's nothing left?" Tommy asked, leaning his back against the wall. Martin, who cares about Iris, took the time to give her a lemon."You have to eat a lot of food like this. We're all sick, anemia." He said a little jokingly and made Shane laugh. But unfortunately, Iris shook her head with a bitter smile as she returned the lemon to him."I can eat it later when I get home. My tongue will die if I eat it straight." Iris said a little too much."Honey, if you need help, call me. I'll come to get you right away." Jack was as usual, like a goose-stressed from looking for opportunities. Iris ignored Jack for fear she couldn't keep her hand from hitting his face.She saw Eva w
The white towel Jonathan was wearing was too low to the point of the V-shaped section in his stomach protruding. And for God's sake, it's so sexy. Iris thought harder until she couldn't think sanely."W-wait! Answer my question first! Also… Why did you put your clothes in my suitcase?" Iris stood up slowly and immediately turned around while rubbing her face.She couldn't imagine being able to see the heavenly sight of a demonic figure like Jonathan. Her hand reached out slowly to slap her cheek to wake her up from hallucinations.Jonathan opens Iris' suitcase but doesn't find his clothes there."You want me to talk naked?" Iris bit her lip chaotically.'Damn it! You want me to scream hysterically here?' Jonathan himself heard clearly."I-I put it in the cupboard downstairs."Iris could hear the sound of drawers being pulled, but she didn't dare turn around for fear of losing her mind to Jonathan. And what is that demo
Jack was so jealous of Iris petting the dog. He put his arm around Tommy's shoulder, still watching Iris even though Jack's eyes were on Iris' cleavage."I want to be a dog. Wooff! Wooff!" Tommy shuddered."I'm going to be an animal torturer." Jack rolled his eyes lazily."Then Iris will be the cop," said Jack, who Iris ignored."Come on, Arthur."Wooff! Wooff!Tommy and Jack looked at each other for a moment. Just now, Iris called the dog by the name Arthur. And the dog also barked like he was happy to be called Arthur."And he hasn't made a sound since I met him at the beach," Tommy muttered. Jack touched his chin with a bit of thought."The power of beauty. Even dogs know which women are beautiful and which are not." Tommy and Jack followed the others into the hotel.Iris took the dog to her room. The two roommates were very surprised because the dog was large and looked very elegant when walking."You bought a
"Yeah. I thought she would come here in jeans and a t-shirt.” Eva replied as she lifted her sunglass. Iris felt awkward."I don't know you to go sunbathing here too, guys." Iris sat next to Eva and stared at the beach. She watched Jack with an amused look for trying to lure a lot of pigeons which is sunbathing."This is Hawaii, girl. You want me to stay in the room until the day after tomorrow?” Shane said with a small snort. Eva smiled lopsidedly to respond to Shane's word.Iris smiled blandly. She had unusual to mingle with her friends like this. It was even the first time she saw Eva, who repeatedly raised her sunglasses when a handsome man passed by.“Ulala~ Look at his six-pack abs.” Shane and Eva chuckled together. Meanwhile, Iris was busy scratching the sand because that man wasn't for her taste.“Iris, sunbathe on my chair. I'm going to surf with Allan first.""Okay."Iris looked at Shane, who ran
Eva looks at her intensely. She was watching Iris whether she was lying or not. But Iris had anticipated that question thanks to Jonathan. She didn't expect that Eva would ask this trivial question, according to Jonathan's prediction.Iris thought to what extent Jonathan understood the character of all of his comrades. Even a woman as complicated and long-minded as Eva could be read easily by him."I'll ask Shane to give you the medicine you need," Eva said again, reading her novel.Iris nodded. Her toes had been moving restlessly in her shoes because of Eva's gaze. Hopefully, she didn't realize anything about her lies.After a long journey, they finally arrived in Hawaii. Luckily they came at night, so there was still time to rest before starting the event to relieve stress on the beach later.They all gathered in the lobby. Eva and Shane seemed to share room keys with their men.“Okay, because our budget is limited. You have to
Iris suddenly had terrible thoughts about Jonathan. He couldn't have stolen the phone to keep an eye on her from afar, could he? Her mouth laughed uncertainly and awkwardly. She then typed a message for him.She had a bit of a nosy intent now. And this she learned from a colleague when she worked part-time at a coffee shop. She bit her thumb a little intensely before sending the message to him.'I'll keep it. What name do you want me to write your contact on my phone? Dear? My darling? XD.'SEND“Iris! Come on!" Suddenly Shane called out.Iris immediately stood up and realized that she had been busy in her world since earlier. Luckily Shane called her. Otherwise, goodbye, Hawaii."Wait for me!" She shouted as she half-ran after them all. Jack was already in the front row, and the others were like playgroup boys for following him.When entering the plane, Iris didn't forget to turn on airplane mode on her phone. But when
Iris felt a few seconds passing by in silence. What did he say? Sex? Even though she had just said she would help make his wish come true. It feels so embarrassing. Iris desperately wanted to break eye contact with him and get in the mouse hole because she was too embarrassed. She just never had sex before. "Um… I'm sorry. I don't think I can make that one wish come true." She said nervous and embarrassed. Jonathan looked normal and sat on a chair looking at the box of almost expired milk. "I have no interest in doing it either," He said. Iris was relieved. She just couldn't imagine having sex with the devil. Also, she was attracted to him. But for sex, she can not accept it. After their awkward conversation ended, she immediately washed the bowl she had used earlier and entered her room. In her room, she immediately jumped on the bed and buried her face in the pillow. She could not i
After two days in the infirmary, Iris met greetings with many of the remaining Devil Hunter members. Shane repeatedly did body scans, especially her neck, for fear that her nerves were disrupted due to the strangulation at that time. "I told you, didn't I? I'm fine." She said in a slightly insistent tone to Shane. But Shane put the data board on the table while looking at Iris with annoyed eyes. "I'm a doctor here. You have to listen to what I say if you want your body to be fine.” Shane said to which Iris answered with a small snort. "I'm the patient here. And I feel for myself what my body is like.” She groaned like a child. Shane rolled her eyes lazily. Iris, who was still wearing the neck collar around her neck, had a little trouble getting her clothes back on. Two days after she was in the treatment room, she was still embarrassed to be naked in front of Shane even though she was a doctor.
Eva fell to the ground after she saw the demon die and turn to dust at Iris' feet. She was panting with relief that they were both still alive after fighting James."Iris… You did it." She said to Iris who was still standing staring at the dust. But her eyes widened in horror when suddenly she collapsed to the floor and passed out."Oh shit… Iris! Are you alright? Iris!" She quickly took out her cell phone and called someone at headquarters. "Shane! I need help now!"Near the alley, Jonathan watched Eva as well as Iris from a distance until he waited for reinforcements to arrive to take them.When Martin and Tommy arrive, they are very surprised to find Eva who has a broken leg while Iris is still unconscious and hasn't woken up since she managed to beat James.Eva had confirmed that Iris was fine and was in a state of shock. And they were immediately taken to headquarters.
-At location-Eva and Iris led James into a small alley away from the crowds. After they entered a bookstore, James was waiting outside. But because the two of them took too long, he finally caught up and went inside."Welcome, James." Eva hissed in an angry tone of voice.Eva, who was very careful about all her actions, seemed to point a knife at James' neck after he entered the shop. James himself was surprised because the shop outside was like a bookstore when he entered there was only an empty room. There was only one lamp in the middle of the room, just like an interrogation room.James glanced at Iris who seemed to be avoiding eye contact with him."Devil Hunters... I thought you guys were wiped out." James said with a chuckle. But he still couldn't relax because it seemed that the two Hunters in front of him seemed to know his weakness."We'll always be here. Don't
