A Rather Dull Fight

Azemo was quite distracted because of the constant chatter in his mind and nearly missed the latest in the string of monster corpses. The one he found was fresh, meaning they were closing in.

As night fell Azemo wanted to go to sleep, but Ima urged him onwards. As a demon he had a large advantage in night fights.

Azemo heard the call of his bed through his entire body and tired Azemo came out to play. Seeing Azemo in a bad state of mind, Ima realized she had to motivate him somehow.

'Okay fine. Just put in your full effort for half an hour and then you can go to bed.'

Azemo instantly perked up and he began to look around more carefully. Unfortunately when he was tired Azemo, he had already missed the shield that was covering a small nook.

Azemo was happy to climb into his warm bed after the thirty minutes passed fruitlessly, but Ima was worried if sleep was all it took to break Azemo.
