"Why is it a shame? Did you want that rooster to be defeated?" Hiep makes no comments as to whether or not she can do it. She might be able to, she just has to learn something... "Did you send that overgrown poultry out in hopes someone would do it?"

"I might not be able to stop it for good, but I don't think it can stop me for good, either. So, y'know, there's that." Even if it kills her, the rooster then has to deal with her superpowered zombie trying to burn everything down. And even if she can't kill it, keeping it delayed and focused on her can still help defeat it. Teamwork is a greater weapon than many consider.
"Why else set it up to stay in one place, rather than let it wander the countryside?" The massive devil gives an oversized shrug. "I had hoped one of the local population would rise to the task. That they would eventually grow furious with the rooster's demands and slay it themselves. Perhaps they still might... but for as long as there are heroines there to bail them out, they will be slow to do so." The massive man leans forward, such that his face is not more than a foot away from Hiep and Harriet's. "Is that truly all you wish to know?"
