Onicus blinked and straightened on his shoulder.
"Huh? Above us? In the sky? Are you sure you heard correctly? Could it be some flying beasts?"
Zephyr didn't answer.
Instead, he used his Psychokinesis skill on himself and lifted himself into the air, floating toward the source of the voices.
Onicus let out a startled cry.
"You can even fly?!"
It watched in amazement as Zephyr rose into the sky, unsteady at first. But after a few moments, he quickly became more proficient, passing effortlessly through the clouds before suddenly coming to a stop.
Behind a layer of clouds, two dark figures floated in the air, chatting and chuckling as they watched something below.
Onicus's eyes immediately contracted when it saw the familiar pair of bat-like wings.
"Demons!"
Instinctively, it wanted to tell Zephyr to run and save his life.
But then it remembered everything it had witnessed over the past hour.
