Demagogue's frustration only grew as the man's ignorance and the human's lack of action continued. The spikes that were his teeth grated together angrily before he ripped a brass candle-stick off the wall with a loud 'ptaang', causing the wax to fall onto the ground and the fire to go out.
"You." The skeleton said, looking at his supposed master. "You may kill this one. Make it quick and painful." He spoke in a pleasant, yet sinister tone as if he were a torturer who was discussing all the different ways to kill a person with his subject. The Priest seemed completely content with himself, despite him easily overhearing Demagogue's command. It was as if he didn't fear death in the least, as if the concept of nonexistence meant nothing to him, as if.... he were immortal. Demagogue didn't come to this conclusion as he closed on the man with speeds only a metahuman could match. He smacked the old priest on his temple with the base of the stick, blood and skin flayed from his bone as his skull cracked against the metal. As the old man he was, the priest crumpled to the floor, un-moving, not breathing. Demagogue wasn't done though. He smashed the priest's skull with the stick over and over and once the head was reduced to paste, he worked at the chest, slamming it into his body until the base of the metal bent and fell off, hitting the floor loudly at his feet. The Demon waited for a yellowish orb to rise from the body, his soul, but nothing came. 1 minute. 2 minutes. Nothing. Suddenly, Demagogue saw the light in the church dim as one of the 12 candles that lined the stone walls went out. What... why.... The demon looked back down where the priest had fallen to find there was no body, just a splattering of blood and trace bits of brain matter. His frown deepened, a chill running up his backbone. From out of the shadows near the entrance to the church, the priest stepped out apparently unharmed, clapping his hands in an almost mocking display of admiration.
Very good, my children... He said before reaching into his exceedingly large robe sleeve, pulling out a twisted, curved dagger too cruel to have been made by a holy church. Those fanatics had a sense of divine craftsmanship after all. No... If Demagogue didn't know better, the weapon was almost demonic. If he had skin, the demon would have had goosebumps.
You're very strong indeed... Shall I see how durable you are now? Demagogue's eyes faded to black as he heard these words. He was unarmed, without magic and in a room with an immortal priest with an unholy weapon. He turned his head in the direction of his 'master'.
"Kill him!" He commanded.
