A lopsided grin was the answer to Kiriha’s angered hiss, clearly Beelzemon wasn’t going to take Blue Flare’s General seriously anytime soon.
“Tha’s real cute, kiddo. But keep in mind, if ya know ‘m a Demon Lord, ya oughta know tha’ I ain’t exactly a weakling.”
It hadn’t been lost on him that this boy was indeed aware of his kind. But at this point, it also hadn’t surprised him. The only factor was the fact that he had no idea what sort of experience it was with Digimon. And yet he was still blabbering on about an army.
“I’m sorry, wha’ was tha’? I don’ think I caught yer name, kid,” he snickered, crossing his arms. And in his opinion, this Kiriha kid’s name wasn’t worth remembering.
“Wha’s it matter t’ you wha’ ‘m doin’ in th’ human world, huh? Ahh, so like people like you, always willin’ t’ judge me fer crimes I may not’ve even committed,” he sighed in feigned melodrama.

And he needed to do that somehow without using violence…. Well, not too much violence.
And so, unfolding his arms, he chose to keep silent at Beelzemon’s sneer.
“…Quit the bull and answer my question,” he snapped. “Because it obviously does matter when a big gun goes wandering about in our world.” Unconsciously, his hand moved to rest its palm on one of his pockets. “So? Are you gonna tell me or not?”
‘Threatened’ wasn’t the feeling that severely nagged at him even as the other jeered at him and made that slight, yet...
blue–flare: “An’ yet I haven’ seen ya do one thing t’ follow up,” he sneered triumphantly. Then again, he figured it...
