Youma were such a nuisance!

They tended to pop up at the most annoying times. It figured that the moment that Howl had decided to patrol for the first time seeking out his princess that a youma popped up. Nysa had managed to ensure that there were no innocent bystanders around to get injured by a rampaging monster in a relatively fancy shopping center. Pretty much all of the shops had closed up at 6 pm sharp, and seeing as it was approximately 9pm, it was now an abandoned parking lot.

The youma did not seem to mind the lack of people, seeming to enjoy merely pounding its feet into the ground, almost as if testing its strength. It seemed to be cracking the asphalt only if it continually continued pounding on the same spot over and over and over again.

It would be best to avoid the feet at all costs... Perhaps the head or eyes would be a better bet for an assault...

Nysa did not consider himself a coward, but he also was not the sort to jump into battle without seeing how he could best go about it. He did rather value his life enough to think things through. So instead of blindly launching an attack at the bulky youma now amusing itself with cracking the asphalt, the young teal-haired man stood by a lamp post, the light easily showing off where he was standing.

Apparently the presence of a single Squire was not appealing enough for the youma to give up its little activity.
