in front of the red skinned creature there was a girl, a winged girl, with a halo above her red hair, wearing silver and gold light armor, giving off a holy aura, however the girl was injured, with red stains on her armor, the wounds looked like the wounds the humans had when i saved them, painful but not fatal.
as i looked at the red skinned creature again i saw something i wished i never saw, behind the red skinned creature there were hundreds of wolves, even the wolf king, but now they were dried up, looking like all their blood was drained, not just the wolves, i could see almost every creature in the forest, but without blood, giving off a weird feeling, even if i never cared much about them, i still felt bad for them.
in the middle of the pile of dried creatures there was a large altar made of meat and bones, as if the dried creatures have been sacrificed to a demon, "wait, demon? the red skinned creature must be that demon." i growled a bit too loud, causing the demon to look at me, as soon as the demon looks at me my body stops working, as if my instinct is telling me i can not run, or fight.
when the demon saw me it smiled at me with its sharp teeth, the smile seemed innocent, well, as innocent as a demon could seem, but the feeling it gave off was creepy.
"hiyah!" seeing a opening the winged girl attacked the demon with a flaming sword, cutting off one of its wings, after the wing was gone the flames immediately started burning the demons back.
with a loud roar the demon tried to counterattack by slashing its claws, but missed as the girl jumped backwards, away from the demon.
as the girl dodges i jump out of the greenery, and spit out a ball of fire at the demon, turning its attention to me, as the fireball hits the demon it rushes at me with its claws cloaked in an evil aura.
as the demon gets closer i realized i could not dodge, the demon caught me, holding my body with both hands, as the claws hold on to me my body lost all strength, and i could feel my body shriveling up, like a plant that has not been watered in weeks.
i did not want to become like those wolves, but the demon did not let me go.
but thankfully i gave the winged girl time to attack the demon by distracting it, as she put her hands together in prayer the demon realized what she was doing, threw me away, and rushed at her, but before the demon could get to her a bright pillar of light shines from the sky, landing on top of the demon, and burns it to nothingness.
as the demon disappeared i could feel my strength returning, after my strength fully recovered it still kept increasing, as if the power absorbed from the other victims was entering my body.
the only thing left of the demon was a small red and black swirling orb, looking like a marble, as soon as i saw the orb i felt like i had to eat it, no i was certain i had to eat it, as i had that thought my body automatically rushed to the orb and swallowed it in one gulp.
as soon as i swallowed the orb i felt a weird burning feeling throughout my body, as if there were bugs crawling all over me, at the same time my body lost all its original strength, i fell to the ground unable to get up, like those plants that looked like me from the cave.
after some time the feeling of bugs crawling on my body disappeared, but it was replaced by excruciating pain, as if my body is getting torn to shreds, before i fell unconscious i saw the winged girl looking at me sadly, as she was walking over to me, with my last strength i spit out a green fireball at the winged girl, and healed her wounds, after that, everything went dark.
