The Second Demon [3]

Seiya clenched tight the demon's wounded mouth, suppressing every word that should've come out. 

"It's your breath, isn't it?" Seiya said and the demon's eyes spread wide, taken aback by Seiya's quick deductions. 

"Spraying your blood on them to make it look like your blood is the one you use to control them," Seiya continued. "But in truth, it's your breath."

"After all, that one villager among them doesn't have any stain of your blood," Seiya's gaze shifted to the villagers swarming closer. 

While trying to decipher what was at play by the demon that got the villagers acting so wild, he was able to see a villager with no stain of the demon blood at all—probably an oversight from the demon's part.
