Ragna noticed that whatever Lydia heard from the fighting couple had visibly stirred her. So as they came onto the road and she drew her blade he did the same, placing the flat of the his claymore against his shoulder. Then she muttered "Curse that damned king." and Ragna chuckled slightly despite the situation. "Aye curse him. And all his confounded subjects with their confounded need to hunt you down... Listen Lydia, He probably had some poor angel or demon tell him that you are the next Demon king or something and wants to test you out." His shoulders visibly slumped, " Besides if I know anything about why the King wants you I would tell you right away. I don't want you going into this blind, but I'm blind as well." It hurt him to lie to her. He felt the Oaths chains wrapping around his body but then loosen giving him a chance to breathe.

Fast forward 7 days


The two companions arrived at Ragna's manor just at daybreak The twin oaken doors swinging wide as servants or other peasants came out to greet him. Several guards came out with weapons trained on Lydia but at a motion of his hand they all stopped. " This girl, is my guest for my limited stay here. If you touch her I will disembody your sorry little body and feed your flesh to your loved ones." His voice was a low growl and his eyes shown with pure anger. The only one to not back up in fear was a five foot demon woman. A succubus to be exact. Her flesh was as perfect as her black hair. Her body was wrapped up in one of Ragna's cloaks and she was smiling at him and Lydia. " That includes you Jezebel." The succubus merely nodded and put her finger to to lips as if it was so tempting. In an instant she was in front of Lydia with a bladed hand to the half-elf's throat. Sadly, Ragna knew this would happen as it had happened in the past, One of the main reasons he kept her, for disposing of unwanted annoyances. But Lydia isn't unwanted so the next words he spoke were barely a whisper but still fell upon everyone's ear's  " I mean it કઠણ લાકડું..." The last words came out harsher then normal and it sounded like another language. As the last word fell out of Ragna's lips Jezebel's body went rigid and she looked up at him and answered." O-of course, Master Ragnarok." Each word etched more and more pain into her gaze before her gaze went slack and she collapsed on the ground.

Ragna sighed and looked away from the succubus and down to Lydia. " I'm sorry you had to see that Lydia. She is a very jealous succubus and kills any of her lovers female companions. Now lets go inside. You can take a bath in my quarters while I sort out my armor. I'll have one of my servants take you to them if you want?" He tried to sound as cheerful as he could in this situation but it fell kind of short as he just showed more of his demon side to the girl then he wanted to.
