The demon scam
You just hold your sister for now, happy that you are together. You don't even mind the pain from your wound. After a moment though, Merle breaks up the hug.
She blinks as she takes notice of your bloody shirt. "Big brother was in a fight..?"
You make a little grimace and say, "Yeah kind of..."
She shakes her head in an all-too grownup manner for her young years. "You need to get to the doctor," she says, and reaches out to touch one of the blue rock formations that are just beside you.
You look up to see what she is doing. "Huh..?"
Instantly, the rock starts to shimmer with the same glow you saw back in the forest.
You gape, totally stunned. What the..!? SHE openened up the portal here by herself?
You're too shocked to allow this to sink in just now, but you will make sure to talk to the village elders about this when you get back...
Naria looks confused, and she looks from Merle to you and back at Merle again. "What is going on here..?"
You hurry to get over and take a hold of Merle's hand, faking a grin at Naria. "We're going to take a trip to the human realm. Thanks for all your help and take care!"
Naria blinks and waves at you, looking quite perplexed. "Ehh goodbye. See you sometime!"
Before anything bad can happen, you step through the portal. The last thing you see of the demon realm, is Naria's crestfallen expression, and then you slip away to your own realm...
(Congratulations, you pulled off the scam!)
THE END
