[Probably. Something like that would fall under a doctor's or sorcerer's sword's knowledge.]
A demon's essence changing a human... Wouldn't that be dangerous?

Then... was Julius Vincere an enemy or ally?
[Regardless of who he is, what does that make the person who assassinated him?]

Not very well, though I can throw some fireballs. My aim is just not the greatest.
[He grimaces because that Centipede is being far too generous.]
I am assuming that you are not a normal boy, so I will leave running or fighting to your discretion.

[Sayo nods, before he speaks. No need to clarify what he is when they still need to get past this monster.]
If you can't aim, it's better if we try to sneak past it.
[If William can aim well, it can work as a distraction. But since he can't, Sayo doesn't want to get accidentally hit by fireballs.
He looks up at the Centipede. Hm... Distractions...]
You can try throwing some fireballs at it and we run while it's distracted.

Do you... [What can he ask about it? Sayo seems hesitant before he finally decides on his words.] ...ever wish it never happen?
[William nodded. He honestly preferred running to fighting in this situation, since the one or two fights he had attempted were... unpleasant.]
Alright then.
[He muttered the incantation calling on spirits of flame. It felt different here to use the magic though, like he was drawing on something other than beings of nature.
He threw a fireball experimentally off to the left side. Rather further left of the creature, though it definitely noticed and twitched in that direction. William tried again, this time a little further away and it began to skitter a bit more quickly.]
Now would be a good time to do that running thing I believe.

......
[To say that that question doesn't cause his chest to lurch would be a lie. Naoki's eyes have gone a little wide and he looks at Sayo before turning his face.] Well...
[He tries, to keep his tone purposefully light, as though he's not thinking about everything that came of what he become. The people who died. His failure to save them.] Sometimes, I guess I do. But I can't change that it did.

[He watches Naoki and hear his response. The answer that he sometimes wished otherwise, but it still happened in the past.
Sayo had similiar thoughts about it before, whenever he's not continuously haunted.]
...Yes, you can't change the past. [It's the unspoken rule in the army. Preserve history, never change it.] I... don't have any other questions, Naoki-san.

[With a nod, Sayo quickly moves ahead. He did look back to see if William's coming behind him.
The centipede is skittering in the ceiling, seemingly confused when there's nothing else coming towards it. It looks down and see its two potential prey escaping.]

[William had been hurrying along and say the thing's attention already turning back towards them.]
It is unusually sharp!
[He tries another fireball, this one further off the mark, causing it to twitch away for barely a second this time.]

Run faster!
[Sayo's sword is out, watching out for any traps and running. Sometimes he skip a step via jumping over it. The centipede was briefly distracted, hissing (can centipedes even hiss like that?) and trying to lash out to them.]

[It was really hard dodging the centipede's long body and for once William wished that he'd actually tried to improve his athletic ability.
Before he could curse his fate too much though, the thing managed to strike William. Or rather, brush against him, because suddenly, everything around them went... grainy. That was the only way William could describe it.]
W-what the hell?

[Naoki finds his smile again after a moment, his shoulders rising and falling in another careless gesture. If he could shrug off the feelings about his past...
Ahh, dark thoughts. Back to the present, Naoki, he tells himself.]
You can just call me Naoki, if you want.

[The... grainy effect almost make Sayo stop. It doesn't seem that friendly or safe, so he quickly calls out.]
I don't know, but keep going!
[Sayo starts to run, but the world around them seems to be glitching harder. Distorting the environment and things are clipping into each other.
And the world around them seems to be changing, until they're suddenly in the middle of a street.]
...Eh?

...Eh?
...Okay, if you say so, Naoki.
[It feels rather personal for him to use, but if that's what Naoki wants. Sayo doesn't want to waste time on arguing it.]

[Stumbling to a stop, William looked around. Everything felt... normal.]
Did we some how stumble outside?
[He frowned.]
That was a lot of effort for nothing.

[Sayo looks around in confusion, before he frowns. He feels a little... sour about that.]
I think we did...
[All that effort, for nothing? He almost want to stab someone for it. (No, not William).]
...At least we're outside.
[For now?]

Laughing--?
[And Sayo's about to run off to hug someone else when he sees them, if it wasn't for Kashuu's hand. Thanks, uchibro.]

[He's got Sayo's back, hell yeah. His grip tightens a little when he feels Sayo start to move, just in case.]
Yeah, laughing. Like full-on laughing. Like "ha ha ha!!"
Yeah, laughing. Like full-on laughing. Like "ha ha ha!!"
I suppose so. Being alive is always a good thing.
[How troublesome though. He had been avoiding the blasted game until now, but well, they probably could have made it through. And had glorious, glorious money.]
There is probably nothing for it but to just go home.
[For all he knows, Kevin is going to be frantic.]

[For all he knows, Kevin is going to be frantic.]
[But he feels a strong urge to hug that dead looking guy...!]
He actually laughed like that?
[Sayo's stuck on that point. Because, well... the hugging is something he's dealing with right now. And he can kind of leave it if Taroutachi's just chuckling. But full on laughter? THAT'S surprising. He's trying to imagine it...]
I can't see it.
[The oodachi was always so... detached and stoic?! He's not as close to him compared to his bond with similiarly stoic Kousetsu.]

[From here.]
Yes...
[Sayo looks ahead, until he sees another dead body. But it's really another person walking. His eyes widen a little when he feels himself moving forward and he starts to walk towards them.]
Ah, Midare-- [HE'S GOING TO HUG SOMEONE HELP.]
Yes...

[From here.
Sayo saw how Souza's smile faltered for a moment. Being of no use... He doesn't like hearing that, but he knows they're better with the saniwa. They get used and treated better by Haru. But... Souza doesn't seem to feel better about that.]
Yes, because... if he hurts you and Kousetsu-niisan... [It's obvious what Sayo is thinking off. Unlike his normal approach on seeking revenge on everything, his brothers' sake gives this a more personal touch for him.]
