Taking a bite of the fruit, black threads of demonic energy sprung forth from Angelica's body. Her clothes fluttered accompanied by her glossy black hair that wildly flung around.

With his eyes already locked onto the duergar, I was talking about, Waylan nodded his head.

"…I should be able to. Although I can't defeat him, I think I should be able to stall him. Especially since that demon companion of yours should be able to somewhat weaken his strength."

The moment the device touched the floor, four retractable claws extended from the bottom of the device, hooking themselves onto the ground.
