12: Extraction II: 2nd Method?

The young lady had quickly taken an abrupt turn as she rushed towards the door which led her in here.

It was a risky move but was the only way in her mind. She would have to try the risk to survive if she could!

And as she got to the door, Ares had instantly threw a dagger towards her.

The Dagger had hit against the door which she had her hands on. It had stabbed so close to where she was that she instantly gasped.

"Don't even try to run! running will only mean quicker and more painful death " He expressed

The young lady could feel her feet trembling in fear as she stared at the dagger. She suddenly couldn't move! It was as if she had gone numb everywhere.

Ares smirked watching her " So how should you die, Slowly by cutting you off or by instantly stabbing you off. My flute will come to me through Both means I guess"

He had that twisted Smirk on his face with wild thoughts of blood running through his head. And if he was left any further, he would obviously get it done with!

"Don't kill her"

But then Neon who sat there at a distance interrupted. The fox seemed to be recovering from his weakened energy.

Ares hesitated. He still had his eyes on the trembling girl before him as he said " And why do you say so? Isn't killing her the only way to get my tool? If so then I should do that as soon as possible"

"Although killing her is a direct way to get it back, It's also a method with 30 percent chance of failure"

"Huh?" Ares looked back at Neon " What do you mean?"

"This method has a high percentage chance of success which is 70, But also there is 30% chance of failure"

It continued "And you never know if your attempt might be a failure. And if that's the case, You'll end up destroying your flute energy. That's why it's risky and I don't recommend it" Neon explained further.

Ares was hesitant as he stared at the girl again "Geez, How bothersome. Can't I just take the risk?"

"It's up to you to take the chance of loosing it all..Can you bear it?" Neon asked.

Ares slightly rolled his eyes as he turned to look at Neon " Then I guess I'll listen to you"

Relived beyond words, The girl had Fallen to her knees with cold shivers all over her. She felt relived from hearing that she was safe now!

"But how then can I get it back. Because only when I get it back can I help you recover faster" Ares expressed.

"There's a way to get it back..And this method can assured a 100% chance to success " Neon informed.

"Oh? Really? What's it?" Ares was curious.

On hearing that, The young lady had once again gone weak in shock. She wondered what this other method there could be. Because she was sure she was included!

"This second method involves the core of the Seven soul Sea Beast. You'll have to defeat that beast and then take it's core. With it, You can use it to successfully extract the flute from her. And it's bound to be successful " Neon explained.

The young lady was relieved. She wasn't going to die then!

Ares thought through what Neon stated "The Seven soul Sea beast, Isn't that beast vicious and powerful as well? How can I possibly defeat it?" He asked.

"And that's the problem" Neon said "It's more powerful than three of us put together. So fighting is is Simply courting death" Neon coughed with pain in his chest.

"Look at you. You're literally hurt and have no much means to quick recovery " Ares sighed, looking at him. "Too bad we can't kill her and get it done with "

Ares turned to look at The young lady who was trembling within. "You're lucky I guess.. But that doesn't guarantee your entirely life" He said as he turned and walked up to Neon.

"Here.." He stretched out his hands towards it" Get into me and take shelter for the meantime. I'll have to set off to the Sea tonight. Even if it's a long journey, We'll have to get there sooner or later and get things done with"

Neon had disappeared into Ares as Ares turned to the Young lady "And you, I guess you'll be traveling with us. I have no alternative "

"Oh, Yes. Sure.." The young nodded. "And my name is Iris, not ' you ' "

Ares turned to look at her again "Do I look like I care?" He questioned " So follow me and stop whining else I'll go with the first Method of killing you off"

Iris zipped off her mouth as she watched Ares walked out of the the store room where they were in.

And as soon as Ares walked out of the room, He saw demons outside, gathered up around the store room's exterior.
