Jakub was clearly not happy with the explanation that Vera and Lucio were giving him. The stories contradicts each other and it was highly believable that the demoness just went out of her way to kill demons. If it had been a week ago, that would have been exactly the case. But Verena never kills in the open. Ever. It is the quickest way to get caught. And Jakub knows that she would never kill in front of Mathias. Ever. So the fact that both of those things happen should have been a red flag for self-defense. She didn't have to kill them, but they were clearly trying to kill her. But explaining that wasn't working. So Jakub recruited some random warlock to explain. And he did.
He explained how the demoness and wolf came in together and got to the table. Then two demons walked up to them and asked them to leave and despite the couple not doing anything else. The wolf tried to defend the two of them and was push out of the way. That is how the fight started. It was how Mathias went from human to wolf and why those demons were now dead on the ground. The demoness retracted her claws and crossed her arms. "Now that we have proven my innocence, we better not be arrested." She glanced over to Elias and he just kind of shrugged. It is hard to convict a demon, when he didn't witness the death. And there were so many supernaturals around that really anyone could have killed them. Though the warlock told the story, who knows if he just lied in order to get away from them all. Eli also made a mental note to ask why everyone in the restaurant was terrified of the three.
Eliana had taken it upon herself to attempt to clear out the restaurant, but everyone was hesitant. The hunters didn't have power here. All of them were terrified that leaving would mean their untimely death at the hands of Berserk, Lucio, and Sting. Verena glanced around. "Well you heard her. Get out!" After that, no one could get out fast enough.
Lucio crossed his arms. "Fine. You are off the hook." He started, glancing back at the two demon bodies. "You're lucky I didn't even like those two demons." Lucio looked over to the hunters and then specifically focused his gaze on Elias, confused by him. "Is there any other information you need or is this restaurant still free to operate under the agreement?" Eli glanced over to his sister and then back to Lucio. "The restaurant is fine." Verena ran her fingers through Mathias fur now that he was next to her. "And us? Mathias can't exactly stay in wolf form forever and I would prefer he shifts back at home." Elias just nodded at her and she smiled. "Oh good."
