Chapter 117: When Apart



"I\'m to protect a whole kingdom? What a joke. I can\'t even protect my Lord, who is one person!" He berated himself.

His anger was so hot, it threatened to burn the entirety of the forest. He took small deep breaths. Calming himself down, he knew anger wouldn\'t get him anywhere, hence, he needed to calm down. Maybe if he was calm, he could think logically and find his master.

He put the anger aside for when he meets whoever kidnapped him. He swore to incinerate, not just them but their entire tribe. The price to pay when you have offended a royal hound in the Underworld was a hefty one and they weren\'t getting away, Hubris made a silent promise.

He howled, which woke up the rabbit. He was already running forward when the rabbit positioned itself ontop of him, gaining comfort it had never known. Hubris was too much in a hurry to care, he just went with it.

He was faster than he originally had been, but even that wasn\'t enough. It didn\'t feel like he was running in circles, or that he was running in the same place. It felt like was moving, but the clearing of the forest seemed to be moving right along with him.

He couldn\'t stop, he didn\'t want to, not until he runs into Kiro and rescues him. He had a lot of thoughts in his head, what if he\'s already dead? He didn\'t even know which monster took him, or how dangerous and impatient they were.

Just as he was running, his precognition let him see something. Kiro was in some sort of cage, locked away, and he was unconscious. But the skill wasn\'t showing him where, or which road to take.

That made his brain melt. He was about to give in to the hopeless situation when he felt a gentle nudge from his neck fur, stirring him in a certain direction.

"You know the way? Why didn\'t you just say so, you stupid rabbit!"

----------------

Kiro slept, blissfully unaware where he was or that he was a captive. He was even having nice, lewd dreams. When a ruckus jerked him out of his wonderful dreams.

He first felt iron under his skin, then realised his arms were tied behind his back. He opened his eyes and looked around, it was the edge of the forest, he couldn\'t see anything else.

He slowly rose from his sleeping position, getting to his feet, luckily the cage was big enough to accommodate him.

"Why the f*ck am I naked? Where\'s my armour? Ryu! Come!" He shouted at the top of his lungs but nothing happened.

Then a demon, that looked exactly like a human walked out of a cave and started making monkey sounds, Kiro gave up on attempting communicating with them, they were clearly doing to eat him.

"Damn savages!" He turned the other way, "Hubris! You better get here or you\'ll die of guilt!" He started shouting.

More of the humanoid demons started coming out, some with wood, some with a large pot, some with vegetables. They all hit the cage ad they went, as if to startle their prey. It was working because Kiro started sweating, as if he was wearing layers upon layers of clothing.

Then they started doing some sort of ceremony around the fire, dancing and hitting each other til they bled while laughing. Whether it was to offer him up as a sacrifice, or thank their gods for the meal was unclear.

They just kept up their weird dances, and painting themselves with the others blood. Kiro tried using Kaos to break free from the cage, but the rope and the cage seemed to have been made from Kaos, so it was useless.

They started lowering him into the boiling pot. Now Kiro knew he was impervious to heat to a certain point thanks to constitution, but just which point that is something he never bothered to explore, so this descent frightened him.

Just then, something zoomed through the cage out of nowhere and shuttered it completely. Kiro used whirlwind to avoid getting into the pot and landed safely on the other side.

"Ryu!" Kiro exclaimed excitedly, picking up his weapon.

He had travelled from across the forest, because he was summoned, he made it back by his master\'s side safety.

Another duo arrived a second later, just in time. The tribe of cave demons were still confused about the weapon that travelled on its own, now the two who broke their illusion.

Hubris ran straight to his Lord, "my Lord, I\'m so sorry, I was careless."

Kiro caressed his underbelly, as if to tell him, silently, everything was okay now. He involuntarily wagged his tail.

He happily took some of his fur to cover up his master\'s important assets. He then, coldly turned to the things that kidnapped him.

The cave demons weren\'t that dumb, they knew the price they\'d pay if they messed with a hellhound which is why they went for the human that they pegged for a slave.

Hubris wasn\'t in the business of negotiating, as he let out his fire balls run rampant in their abode. It levelled the place flat. Those who didn\'t die instantly, would soon be.

But Hubris wasn\'t going to give them an ounce of hope. He pounced from one to the other, using his claws and fangs to make sure the little light they held onto was properly snuffed out.

When he was done with them, his anger was still not satiated, he wanted more. Kiro jumped on his back which startled him a bit.

"It\'s okay now Hubris, I\'m okay, we can go." He said hugging him from behind his neck.

That calmed him down immediately, and they walked out of the forest and into a desert. The sky was still on fire.
