âShould I go call someone?â Cain asked.
âDonât be a quitter!â Evelynâs arms said. âBut...that might help, actually!â
Cain nodded at the struggling arms and took off running toward the mansion. Kira watched him go, and as he shifted to grip both of the arms, he sighed.
âWhy is this happening?â he muttered, deflated.
âItâs your fault!â the arms accused mercilessly.
Kiraâs eyes widened.
âYou ran away! I was so worried!â the arms yelled. âThen I fell into this pit, and itâs all your fault!â
âS-Sorry,â he blurted out.
Then, the muddy arms...gently, carefully grasped Kiraâs hands. âItâs okay. I forgive you. Youâve done so much for me, Kira.â
Kira was about to say something but instead ended up laughing in self-deprecation. âIâm a demon, you know.â
âYes, I knew,â the arms said. âMy healing magic lets me visualize the targetâs memories of being injured.â
âSo...you know what you should do, then, donât you?â
After all, Kira was a demon. He should be killed as such. That would only be natural. And yet...
âI donât mind that youâre a demon, Kira,â the arms assured him, gripping his hands tighter. âYouâre you. Right? Youâre my friend. I care about you. Everything else pales in comparison.â
âBut...â
âIâm not the only one who thinks so. Lord Theodore and Cain agree. Iâm sure Lord Jackson and the others would say the same.â
That...
That couldnât be, he thought.
As if sensing his disbelief, the arms laughed and declared, âCainâs been attacked by demons before, but he said youâre not scary! Youâre just Kira! So...do you believe me now?â
Something threatened to well up in his eyes, but Kira gritted his teeth. In a small, trembling voice, he murmured, âFine. I believe you.â
The arms, in an incredibly gentle tone, said, âGood! And...you know, I want to apologize to you.â
âFor what?â
âI mean, Iâve been dispelling miasma everywhere most of my life. That mightâve affected your parents, siblings, lovers, friends, neighbors...â
âUh... No, actually, I didnât have anyone,â Kira said, shaking his head.
Heâd never had a family, nor did he have any particular attachment to demons as a species.
âI see,â the arms said, relieved.
Really, those arms. They had to stop fretting over pointless things. How annoying! And...just a tiny bit endearing, Kira thought.
âSpeaking of which, that Europa lady...â
âLady Europa said, âI shall die for the vile sin of calling Saint Evelynâs friend a dangerous thing,â and hanged herself.â
âWhat?!â
âItâs okay. Lord Theodore helped her and she immediately started breathing again... Urk.â
The arms began to cough ominously. Perhaps this was their limit.
âA-Are you okay?â Kira asked. âCan you breathe?â
The arms coughed again. âWell, I might be in imminent mortal danger.â
Cain was still nowhere to be seen. Rescue would take a while, and Kira was beginning to panic.
âW-Wait. Iâve got this. Iâll manage,â he said as he began to pull. âUgh! Youâre so heavy!â
âKira, donât overdo it! But also, please overdo it! Iâm dying, probably!â
âSo heavy. So, so heavy! The heaviest!â he grunted.
âWaaah! Why do you keep saying that?! Lord Theodore said Iâm light as a feather!â
âHe was just flattering you!â
Maybe, Kira thought. Maybe there was a reason he, a demon, had been born with a humanlike heart.
