"Well, we wish you the best of luck. If you need anything the Branwen tribe will be willing to help, for a price of course." Raven said, walking up to my side. "Just ask for Vernal and tell her Raven sent you."

Roman laughed and Neo did a quiet giggle.

"Of Course. Criminals like us never do anything for free. The Branwen tribe is infamous throughout the Criminal Underworld. Most wish they could even speak with you. You giving us the chance to call in assistance from your tribe is already great." Roman said, twirling his cane around him and Neo walking toward the exit.

"Take care of yourselves," I called out to them. Neo smiled back at me and putting up two fingers Roman waved to me not even looking back. I feel like that maybe in another life Roman and I could have been friends. Maybe if I would have started in this world first.

"Are we going to rest for the night or going to kill the big bad Grimm Queen too?" Raven asked.

"Why stop now? We're already this close. Might as well kill the last immortal then we just got the brothers." I told her, opening up yet another portal. Which is becoming a very convenient ability. Probably the greatest decision I made to steal Warp Gate. "Oh, wait. Here is the rest of the Fall Maiden."

Grabbing Raven's hand I transferred the power.

"Now you just need to learn to control the powers," I said, causing her to nod.

We walked through the portal and we saw Salem all alone in her throne room having destroyed the room with her magic. However, her throne remained untouched. Cinder headed off onto the side after it looked like it was smashed into the wall.

Salem noticed our presence because she raised her hands and black shadow hands raised from the ground grabbing us. Raven looked like she was about to break the hands, but looking at her I shook my head telling her no. She just sighed, keeping her head down.

"YOU! You are the one that forced me out of their mind. What are you doing here? Was it you? Did you kill her and ruin my plans? I needed her to obtain the relics." Salem asked many questions, clearly annoyed.

"Not very nice to hold your guests down. Especially when asking them questions." I mocked her, causing her to glare and the grip of the hands to get stronger. "Well, to start. Yes, I did kill Cinder and send her head to you. I thought it would be a great gift."

"You have no idea what you've done. When a Maiden dies unless they think of another young woman some random girl will be chosen. Now my plans that I was so close to being completed are ruined." She said in anger.

"Okay, this is boring," I said, breaking my hands with a flare of dragon fire surrounding my body. The hands holding Raven were destroyed also.

"How? Who are you?" Salem said, glowing with a dark aura around her.

"Someone willing to grant your deepest desire," I said, vanishing and appearing sitting in her throne that she left empty.

"The death of the gods," Salem said, now intensely listening.

"No, your death," I said, watching Raven sigh and leave the rooms. Wonder if her senses picked up the guests that were eavesdropping.

"True, I crave death, but I would rather make the gods suffer. Then die." She said matter of factly.

"Did you not learn the first time or second time you went against the gods? They made you immortal, never to be united with your loved one. Then make you walk the world alone for hundreds of years. Finally, reincarnate your lover, but making it impossible for you two to see eye to eye. Causing the death of your children. Do you think that is the worst they could do?" I asked, truly surprised by her idiocy.

"They said they would destroy the world if humanity doesn't unite by the time they return. At least that is what Ozpin said. Meaning if the world is destroyed, I will be destroyed with it." Salem said, seeming like her knowledge is perfect.

"You don't have the power to force the Gods to do nothing. They would come back to hear your request. Laugh in your face and destroy life on the planet and leave you alone once again. This time for eternity. Probably make you every night experience the death of Ozma and your children just to spite you." I said, knowing how some gods are and that would be a punishment they would do.

"They can't do that," Salem said in shock.

"That is right. They can't because you're not going to be alive for that to even be a thought." I told her grabbing Backbiter I did a slashing motion toward her. Then laid it across my lap. Her eyes glance to the sword before backing up to me.

"You can't kill me either. I'm immortal." She said, causing me to laugh. She looked at me confused, not knowing why I was laughing.

"I told you when you visited me in my mind. Even immortals can die and you're not the first for this to be proven with." I told her, causing her to look at me confused at my wording.

"I'm not dead though." She told me like I was an idiot.

"You've been dead since I've swung my sword. Your body just hasn't caught up." I said, standing up walking toward the door. Opening it, finding Raven over the bodies of Tyrian Callows, Hazel Rainart, and Arthur Watts. She hadn't even activated her maiden powers and used her newfound power and sword skills.

Raven looked at me more than Salem.

"I see, you already handled the Queen. Did you really have to pull the cliche move of delay killing?" Raven asked, with a smirk.
