The party was walking in a forest, Lucas was at the rear with Ahriman while Tories walked in font of them confidently, Lucas tiredly all morning to teach Ahriman his language, but it revealed itself a difficult task.
"Uff, what hell of a language do you speak?" Exclaimed Lucas, after not understanding a single word of what Ahriman tried to say, that little guy's language didn't seem to come from anywhere near.
Little did he know that the one in front of him was the former demon king and that he was promising himself that the moment he would regain his power he would kill him with his own hands.
Ahriman couldn't explain the situation to himself, first they trapped him and then they were obligating him to learn their language, he was really bad in learning new languages, and this situation only made him more angry.
For the first few days they only travelled together, there wasn't really any important interaction between Ahriman and the two adventurers, they often fought one another, with time Ahriman began understanding their principals characteristics.
The big woman with the beat ears was always ready for a fight, she never got tired and was always laughing, even in the moment were they needed to be careful, she was also the stronger of the two, one time Ahriman saw her cut a tre in half with a swing of her hand.
The man was essentially different, he was careful, calculating and always with a backup plan, he was the mind between the team, wherever they were going he knew the best terrains and the safer zones.
The two of them couldn't be more different, Ahriman began rethink their killing date since they were so funny, when a decision was to be made, they seemed more dangerous to themselves than the enemy, maybe he could delay quite a bit with some stratagems.
After two weeks of travel Ahriman began understanding the basics of the language they spoke, so one night he tried to talk to them, The fire of the camp was creeping, dancing in the shadows, his now small voice asked "where are here?" Even if incorrect it was still understandable.
The two of them gave him a surprised face, Tories was the first to answer...with a question,"What do you mean?! This is the occidental continent, everyone knows this..." while she was continuing ranting Lucas got nearer to Ahriman "he got near him and began telling the stories of the continent.
The occidental continent was called that way because of the position it was, compared to the other continents.
It was also one among the most important because in that same country Ahriman felt impotent, one thousand years ago the Hero party killed the terrible Demon Emperor.
As Lucas mentioned the Demon Emperor Ahriman had an old foggy memory replay in his memory, one of the time he just fell in Hell.
Ahriman understood where they were, and he knew it wasn't a coincidence he got free, someone was seeking him.
