The Arrow of the Goddess

CHAPTER 4 Cat Demon

The next morning, Alexia told her everything, as well as the reason for staying beside Ericsson. Though ridiculous and hard to believe. But Ericsson has seen it for himself, many strange occurrences that happen beyond human common sense. Ericsson decided to trust Alexia. He also began to be a little wary of going around, if suddenly there are ghosts or demons who want to eat him.

Alexia continued to follow Ericsson, even in the minimarket where she worked she also accompanied him. There wasn't much a Goddess like Alexia could do there. So he just sits between the shelves watching over the humans. Very boring ! That's what it means from his face. Feeling bored just keep sitting and watching. Finally his ignorant nature appeared, he began to prank the customers who came. From returning an item that has just been picked up, or dropping a few objects, even he blows the neck that gives customers goosebumps. Or give them a little touch.

"Feel the feeling I've taken one ! Why is there no one now?" One of the customers felt confused, because one of his items was taken, looks nothing.

Dbual…

An oil bottle falls off on its own.

"I'm getting creepy like this." It looks Alexia is blowing the nape of the customer's neck to make him feel goosebumps.

"Don't there be ghosts? just go home." Customers were eventually frightened and chose to leave the minimarket.

Alexia laughed satisfied, she felt her boredom disappear by pranking the customers. However, just as he turned around and was about to search for his next target. Ericsson was already standing behind him by crossing both hands to the chest.

"Does that feel good?" Staring at Alexia who was instantly speechless after seeing her.

"I'm bored! After all I was just a little joking with them, then what's wrong? Sulking like a child by playing his fingers.

"Huh..you know? You will make this minimarket go bankrupt soon if it continues like that ! So stop bothering them. Youunderstand?" Give understanding to Alexia who annoys customers.

"Well.well." With his lips Alexia away, then he turned back by sticking his tongue out at Ericsson who was mocking the boring man.

"What are all the Goddesses like? If so, I'd better avoid meeting the others immediately. That would be very troublesome. Hah..." once again Ericsson sighed. He returned to his work.

Meanwhile Alexia went outside. He tried to entertain himself. And he accidentally saw a refreshing fruit store. He swallowed his silver. And immediately flew to enter the store. 

As the sun begins to sink, Ericsson has yet to see Alexia back. Is it possible that he snooped because of the incident earlier this afternoon?

"Bodo very much, if he is tired will also return." 

Ericsson reveals Alexia and refocuses on work. Not long after a customer arrived. He was an old man wearing a hat that almost covered his face. Without any footwear, he limped to approach the cashier's desk. While Ericsson was not suspicious at all, he thought that it was possible that the grandfather was lost. And the grandfather began to ask Ericsson something in front of him.

"Sorry grandfather, but these few days I barely see a cat wandering around here. Maybe you can give my grandfather's family a phone number, for me to call if I see a cat like you mentioned earlier?" Ericsson answered him kindly, asking for his grandfather's family number. It is feared that the family lost the kakeh.

Without answering the grandfather actually raised the black bag he was carrying, like he wanted to show something to Ericsson.

"Can you see the contents inside this bag?" Said the grandfather while opening the zipper of his black bag.

On the other hand, alexia was busy eating fruits obtained from the fruit store. And this time instead of flying with wings, he actually walked while walking through the city. Arriving in a narrow alley he saw several cats gathered, but that was not what attracted his attention but, on the dark side he saw two ghostly haunts talking about something.

"Do you know, there's a cat-headed demon that roams the area a lot ?" Say one-handed ghostly figure. It made the other ghosts seriously listen.

"Yes, yesterday I saw it, not intentionally at that time. But as I passed by, I saw that he was cuddling the souls of cats in a black bag. I don't know why he's doing it." Reveal the other ghostly figure, floating into the air.

"But from what I've heard, he said the demon wanted to revive his son. If not wrong his son was hit by a human who then his body was just left on the streets. Isn't that sad?" One-handed ghost response that then overtakes the other ghost to leave.

"Maybe, but isn't it more like the souls of the cats he catches !"

"Well, you got a point too !" The two ghosts disappeared, disappearing like the wind.

Alexia who heard this, immediately remembered Ericsson who had a strong energy. It could be that the demon is after Ericsson's soul. Because he was worried about flying to immediately return to the minimarket. 

Returning to Ericsson, where he looked into the grandfather's bag, he immediately saw a vortex that made him freeze. He felt himself getting carried into the vortex. A second later, his consciousness returned. At that moment Ericsson saw a black bag that had fallen lying on the floor. While the grandfather bounced out of the minimarket, along with Alexa who was also there. 

"Demon base, you want to create chaos in the realm of death? How could you possibly want to get your son back to life. You just want to see him transformed into a demon with a vengeance just like you?" Clearly Alexia was on the cat demon she had just thrown out by him.

"Shut your mouth, you won't understand the feeling I'm feeling right now. So, don't interfere !" With a rising sound, the demon started to let out its long claws.

"It seems that with just a little bit of fighting, it can awaken you. Okay, all right attack me !" Alexia who was already in a situation was ready to fight.

"Based on the arrogant woman !" The old man jumped here and there like a cat. Attacking Alexia with all her strength. 

For once Alexia gets a scratch on her arm. But it had no effect on him. Not how long the cat demon was conquered. Slowly his figure melted with the blowing wind.
