"Fir! Fir, wake up!"
In a daze, I heard someone calling out to me like this.
But when I woke up, I was truly startled! A werewolf covered in grey fur was holding me in his arms and jumping up and down rapidly.
"Um..."
I was about to say something but was interrupted.
"Fir, you're awake? Thank goodness, you were captured by that dreadful female wizard just now, you almost died."
"Heh..."
I spread my wings and flew up, checking my condition. Apart from feeling weak, there was nothing else wrong.
"I'm sorry."
I said to him.
"Your master has indeed passed away. This body has returned to its original owner."
The werewolf was stunned for a moment, then sighed heavily.
"Is that so? So, our master has lost..."
"Hmm? You're accepting it quite easily. I thought you might exclaim, 'Impossible!' or 'You're lying!' or something like that."
"Haha, I did want to say that, but Fir had already mentioned it to us the first time he borrowed this body."
"He actually said that? Well, that's tough for him. If he's not an enemy, maybe we could have been friends."
"Perhaps..."
The werewolf smiled, though it looked somewhat ugly, his sincerity was evident.
After the smile, he fell into a somber mood and turned around.
"Alright, I must go report now. As for the upcoming battles, I have no say in them. You should leave this dangerous place quickly. Oh, and your previous master, Fir, left a message for you."
"Oh?"
This guy was quite chatty, as if leaving a message was a joke.
"He said, if one day he loses and someone else takes back his body, he wants me to tell that person to treat the remaining Undead Holy Angels kindly, after all, we are of the same race."
"Oh, that... Not my concern, it's up to the Demon Lord to decide how to handle that."
"Haha, true enough. Well then, goodbye."
With that, the man accelerated away, leaving me momentarily stunned.
He sure runs fast, really...
Well, although you don't sound like a bad person, how should I put it...
Since you've hurt Oyado and Aliyah, don't expect a happy ending, you jerk.
Checking my level, it had returned to its previous state.
But it seemed to have increased with the experience I gained as Filia, reaching level 57, which was a good thing.
But honestly, if only the previous over 100 levels could have stayed with me, I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
...
That's impossible, there's no way things could be that easy.
I better go back quickly. Even though the soul of the other party should have been collected by Begith, it should still exist. I should go back first to see what suitable punishment to give him.
And Oyado's injuries...
Thinking of this, I accelerated towards the direction they were coming from.
——————————————duang——————————————
I was met by Bai Yueguang and Taishi Xi who were chasing after us.
When these two laid eyes on me, they were also surprised, staring at me for a while before asking with a tone of doubt.
"Fir?"
"Yes yes, calling the boss, what's up."
I said as I flapped my wings.
"Don't show off, can I chop off your wings and barbecue them?"
"Tsk, barbecue? Coming from you?"
"Alright you two."
Taishi Xi gestured for us to stop.
"Hurry back, Oyado's injuries haven't completely stabilized yet, go quickly and use a healing spell."
Before she could finish, I accelerated and flew back in a rush.
Joking aside, anything can wait, but not Oyado!
Full-speed flight was swift, and in less than ten seconds I was back where I was before.
Glancing down, I saw Oyado and Aliyah on the ground, and I dove down.
"Aliyah, how is Oyado?"
Upon hearing this, Aliyah first looked at me stunned for a moment, then reacted.
"Ah, um... you're back, ah, no, the bone spurs on Oyado have been removed by Taishi Xi using mystical arts, then I used healing potion to stop the bleeding, but it seems Oyado is not showing any signs of waking up."
"Is that so..."
I hurried over, casting healing magic and dispelling abnormal magic on Oyado's body like there was no tomorrow.
Layers of white light emerged on Oyado's body, and some demons who had wanted to approach were scared off by those white lights and quickly retreated.
Ignoring them, I continued using magic until the wounds on Oyado's body were completely healed and reverted to their original state. After confirming she had no negative conditions and her HP bar was full, I moved closer and used an advanced light magic, Diagnostic Magic.
‘Excessive fatigue’
When I saw these four words pop up, I breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Aliyah.
"Um... Thank you, if you didn't save Oyado immediately, I might have regretted it for the rest of my life."
"What... "
Aliyah seemed a bit dissatisfied.
"Always caring about Oyado, and never about me..."
"Not at all."
I hugged Aliyah tightly.
"You being fine as well is just amazing."
"I... you jerk!"
Suddenly, Aliyah broke free from my embrace and ran away.
"You... what's gotten into you all of a sudden?"
"Huh? Didn't you want me to care about you?"
"Does that mean you can just... um... you jerk, could it be that jerk pretending to deceive us!"
"Ha..."
I scratched my head helplessly.
"Aliyah, human, level 60, thief, dual sword master, with a title, building destruction..."
"Okay, I got it! You are Fir, no doubt!"
She stopped me abruptly.
"I...I'm going to report to the demon king, you watch over Oyado, and don't touch Oyado!"
After saying that, she vanished in a puff of smoke.
...
"Well..."
I glanced at Oyado, who was still asleep, and shrugged.
"But there's another matter I need to take care of... Bejis? I know you're still there, right?"
"Yeah, this body looks pretty good."
Bejis rolled over to my side, her hair slowly shortening and turning bluer. Her somewhat dull skin began to revert to its original appearance.
That's right, she now looked like Feria.
"Alright, I've made up my mind. I'll follow you with this body!"
"Hey, hey, Your Majesty, don't you need to return to your own space?"
This person just said they would help me solve the issue, then made me dizzy by controlling my body.
However, in the end, the problem was indeed resolved.
"No need, and besides, it's been thousands of years, I'm curious about how this world has turned out."
"Is that so..."
I sighed.
"This body isn't mine, it belongs to another girl, so..."
"Her soul has already been annihilated, you should be aware of that, right?"
"..."
This person is really not subtle, seriously.
"Well, stop with that expression, it's also fate. So, what are you going to do with that guy's soul?"
They took out a book, and upon opening it, there was actually a sketch of an Undead Holy Angel drawn with a steel pen.
From that sketch, I could sense a restlessness in the soul.
"Can you replicate all the skills from his memories?"
"Yeah... I can, but it will also bring along some of his memories."
"Alright then."
I smiled.
"Extract those skills, and then... let this soul be completely extinguished. He must pay the price for harming Oyado as he should."
