Was it not the case that Aleph had engaged in a fight prior in the day, he might have put a little bit more "oomph" into the concussive blasts he had fired towards his foes. Perhaps then they would have at least caused the grip on The Slanderer to loosen enough so he would be dropped. Unfortunately, this was not the case, and despite his luck guiding the blasts where they needed to be, they were deflected and only caused minor injuries. 

[b][color=1a7b30]"I... cannot let someone like that roam free."[/color][/b] he explained to his companion as he took off. It mattered not to the man that the guy stay behind or if he followed. Aleph's mood soured enough to where he had forgotten he was hungry, so he took off in a sprint towards the direction they had fled to. Even if they gained a lot of ground between him, Aleph knew they were following that woman, and that woman was obviously headed towards the smoke off in the distance. Eventually, they would meet again, all he had to do was run! 

But that was in an ideal situation. 

Somehow, Aleph got the feeling that it wouldn't be as simple as reaching them, challenging that villain to a fight, and winning. No, there was definitely a reason for all that smoke, and likely he would be required to assist some civilians or best some demons or the sort. Really, who knew? But if it were demons, he would have to prioritize them instead of making sure that man never slandered his name again. But at the very least, defeating demons would make him feel a bit better, since he knew he was doing something for the good of the people.

But as he was sprinting towards the smoke, he noticed something a bit odd. Namely, he just barely noticed some people on the roofs of a nearby building. Actually, they seemed to be knights of some sort. What were they doing? Before he could even gather what they were trying to accomplish, he saw one such person yell something to their fellow knights, before leaping right off the building! 

[i][color=1a7b30]What the hell is wrong with this person!?[/color][/i]

Aleph started towards this when all of the sudden, some punk-ass, big-ass, fire-ass, exploding-ass explosion exploded on the roof right next to the knights! Thankfully, all but one? had managed to leap off the building. While jumping off a building typically was not the brightest idea, Aleph could gather it was a better alternative to being roasted, quite literally. When Aleph himself was done flinching from the sudden fright, he immediately changed his focus from the chase he was on to the knights who had hastily departed from the rooftops, particularly the one who landed in a conveniently-placed bundle of hay as he rushed over. 

As he was a Hero, not some simple civilian, he paid no mind to the warning by the other knight, unlike most who had. Instead, he kneeled down next to the hay-knight, and offered his arm for her to get up, as her allies seemed busy with other business. He was no expert in healing magics, but smaller damage was not beyond Aleph's basic healing magic. At the very least, he could hopefully numb any pain or rid her of small cuts and the sort if she has sustained anything like that from the fall. She didn't have any visible wounds that looked serious, at the very least. 

[b][color=1a7b30]"Are you unharmed, knight? I can't mend any broken bones, but I can numb the pain."[/color][/b] he explained what he could do for her.
