Nyx, in a heroic battlescarred pose: It's over, Maou the Demon Lord! I've slain all your generals. Solved all your puzzles. There's nowhere left to run!
Maou is sitting quietly in a chair reading and looks suprised to see someone burst in. The room is nicely decorated, comfy, and has a "Live, Laugh, Love" sign above his chair.
Maou slams his book shut, tearing up: "You did WHAT? You KILLED my friends?! You're joking? Right?"
Nyx looks stunned. Then regains composure, looks unamused and says: "What's with that reaction? You ARE the Demon Lord, right?"
Nyx is taking an unguarded, almost bored stance.
Maou has his hands on his head, bending down, distraught.
The scene zooms out a bit to show she broke the door down, revealing that the door had a "KNOCK PLEASE" sign on it. Maou's tail has a cute bow on it, tied near the end.
Maou: "Why??"
Nyx: "Because of your misdeeds."
Maou: "The peaceful protests?!"
Nyx: "Threatening to destroy the world."
Maou: "I said we should redistribute wealth."
Nyx: "That's not what I heard."
Maou: "So you killed 6 people?"
Nyx: "Six."
Maou: "Who else?!"
Nyx, looking inquisitive: "So, if you're not evil... then why does everyone say you are?"
A full panel of just Maou beside himself, in tears and can only look at Nyx incredulously.
In the next panel he speaks up, "Appearance? Racism? Propaganda? *sniff*. Take your pick."
Nyx, grimacing: "What?"
Maou: "Are you telling me you went on a crusade without thinking for yourself until this very moment?"
Nyx, still grimacing: "..."
Maou: "Some fucking hero you are. I want my friends back."
Nyx, staring at her hands, wide eyed: "I've been tricked."
Maou, quietly in the back: "What?"
Nyx, to herself still: "This corruption starts at the top."
Maou:, quietly in the back: "wait--"
Nyx, clenching her fist and staring at the floor with righteous fury: "I should be killing angels..."
Maou: "We're so fucked."
Nyx, walking away from the scene dramatically, her eyes hidden behind her hair and shadow: "I have work to do. Thanks for the info."
Maou: "At least I still have my dog."
Nyx: "Sorry they were #6."
Maou, on his hands and knees, violently sobbing: "NOOOOOOOOO--"
