The boy was out of his reach, tackled to the ground by the heavily armored girl. The boy had stood there holding unto some device. Another weapon? Were he too slow? He did not ponder on it for long for something was under him, reaching out and enveloping his form. Forcing him out as if nullifying his magic. Menomaru tried to uphold the magic but it was as if it was sucked out of him. What in the great demons hell was going on?

He hit the ground with some pink colored ribbons around him. Still clinging to his sword in hand but he was restricted. He tried to teleport but it didn't work.

[i]What?! Impossible! How could I be beaten by these?![/i]

The surprise of having been restrained by these people bothered him. They were not even great demons.


[b]"My name... is Menomaru. I am trying to see what kind of demon that girl is, she destroyed my spies with that magic of hers. In other words she attacked a part of me. These moths you see. I can see everything they see. These toxins is just a defense to render the weak unable to resist."[/b] Menomaru was devising a plan to try make it out of his situation before the hotheaded knight woman would try chop his head off.

[b]"I could for example tell you about the group fighting each other away from here. Likely by now putting things on fire with their powerful swords. Who knows how many 'civilians' that will be affected."[/b] Menomaru was narrowing his eyes to Mordred.

[b]"That woman there is being empowered by something aswell. There is just no way a mere human would be able to stand against someone as great as I. What dark power did you submit to for that power? Bold one? I could offer you more power if you serve me."[/b] He turned his head to Nanoha as good as he could. [b]"As for you priestess. You possess quite the potent sacred power. It is as if you were from a different world. All of you."[/b]

Menomaru did a cruel laugh, perhaps aimed at his situation or all of them. [b]"Ah it makes sense now. That must be it. We are in a different world. That's why my father's remains are nowhere to be found. Who knows what else has slipped to this place! And how will you find them? I have the key! Release me. Undo this seal and I shall find them for you. Little priestess. Surely your not going to let your pride and murderous intent blind you from saving those humans from death?"[/b]

If he could sway the priestess then perhaps she would end up into a conflict with the others. Then he could possibly make for his escape and find allies.
