So why did a stinky human have those scars on her back anyways? Not that Ophie particularly tried to look but she noticed it for a brief second while the child was getting dressed again after wrapping her body up with a fluffy towel made to be extra soft for sensitive human flesh. Almost like the scars of angel wings being removed, that's what they reminded Ophie of. She would have to explore this line of thought later though, she was busy for now. If she could receive the promotion to Baron, that would buy her a perfect opportunity to assassinate Demon King Baron Messiah. She just needed to beat out Calciferous Graves and Sonata Delanore, both of whom had their own reasons for wanting the promotion. "Have fun with your new kid." Ophie stuck her tongue out at Baron Pierce, supposing the child should just be happy she didn't end up on Anguis's serpentine clutches.
Down in the sparring room a dark haired boy with lightning powers and a gentle blonde girl with the power to change her size were waiting for her. "Ah, there you are." Calciferous Graves grinned his fanged grin, almost leaping on her as if she were a sofa. "You finally made it!" Sonata smiled, sitting down on the bench on the side of the room. "You took a while bathing the child." Sonata Delanore gave her a little wave. "She was really grimy. Probably wasn't cleaned for years." It almost made Ophie want to vomit really, there was a limit to what someone like her could withstand when it came to disgusting things like that. Then again, even these two demons stunk. "So why were you two waiting for me?" Wouldn't it make more sense for them to get a lead by training together while she was busy?"
"We all wanted to become Barons together, didn't we?" Sonata beamed, holding her arm out. "I'll set up the simulation." Sonata was a strange demon. Most demons despised technology, but Sonata was adopted into the Tower Society when she was an infant. As a result she was very used to technology. She pressed buttons on the remote, summoning a holo of an enemy. "This is Baroness Rowena, the Baroness of Lies." Sonata smiled. "Think we can practice against her?" Calciferous gazed upon his old enemy from many many years ago and nodded. "This one will be a cinch." Ophie sighed as if this was all a bother, pulling her blades out from her cloak with her tails, swinging them in the air in front of her. "Fine by me. Let's do this fast then."
Using her magic, Ophie made herself invisible and hid while Calciferous took the front guard, blocking against the spider claws and the venom. "Watch out, she can mess with your head!" Calciferous warned. "Don't get distracted!" He swung his sword in an expert stroke, a spark of electricity bursting from the clash of blade on holoflesh. Sonata enlarged her fist to deliver a powerful strike, knocking Baroness Rowena back. "Come on." Rowena grinned, spreading her fangs. "Don't hurt me, I'm your friend!" Calciferous froze for a moment. "E-Echo?" But for Ophie, Katua's unmistakable red flaming hair was brewing before her eyes. "You're already dead. I saw it with my own eyes." Ophie touched the red soul piece pendant on her necklace, dashing forward, swinging her tails in front of her to slash with the twin blades, ripping out Katua's throat. The holo Baron dissipated then, turning into dust. "Good work everyone." Sonata clapped. "Wanna have cookies to celebrate?"
Demons were all evil. But as Ophie enjoyed cookies with Sonata and Calciferous, she figured that if those two weren't demons, maybe she could count them as friends.
