Chapter 17: Leviathan
"Unhand me you monster!" Cain yelled as Lucifer dragged him through the floors of hell by his long hair.
As he arrived in front of a door, he pushed it open and threw Cain inside of it, Cain now released from Lucifer's hold immediately attempted to run out of the door, but couldn't, it was as if there was an invisible barrier between him and the outside.
"You aren't going anywhere Cain, not till you are punished," The Devil stated, his gaze full of ancient rage that once nearly brought the Heavens down themselves.
"But you see, even though the idea of you being made immortal to walk the earth till the end of days is quite the appealing thought, I dislike the fact that it would give you freedom, freedom you do not deserve.
On parchment it is quite the torturous idea, but before you truly suffer you will bring havoc and destruction unseen since my Fall, so here you are," Lucifer explained with a sadistic smirk on his face, "In your brother's hell loop, not allowed to escape till you free him from his guilt."
"What!? I can only get out of here by giving this asshat Paradise!?" Cain roared in outrage.
"You wouldn't be giving him anything Cain, simply making him regain his God-given right, which you stole you hairless ape!" Lucifer retorted. He rarely ever called a human that. For one, he knew humans weren't truly hairless apes, he as well meant no insult to his beloved wife and his previous self, but this was the apt definition of Cain.
He is the First Murderer, his aggressiveness incomparable to his righteous father and kind mother, completely unhinged, just like an ape.
Samael slammed the door shut, no longer wishing to hear Cain's roars of rage. He already restricted Cain's ability to preform any other kind of harm to Abel besides the hell loop kill, it may give him perspective after a couple hundred times killing his brother, Lucifer mused to himself as he spread his wings and flew away from the loop to a desolate part of Hell.
As he landed, he looked around for a bit, 'This place is as good as any other I suppose. Not like there is much different anywhere one looks, well, it is why I am doing this after all,' Lucifer mused to himself.
And as he did, a wave of power exploded through Creation, the likes of it not seen since even the Great War, no, this power was only seen once, when the first light was born within the Cosmos.
From Hell, a dimension, made of an infinite amount of pieces, essentially being infinite size, every part of it alive, the fallen archangel Lucifer, the Will of God, brought forth from its essence its blue print, the Will, God imposed upon the realm.
Lucifer knew that the power released from the Great War was not lost, but it was not something that could be retrieved either.
It was not a power he needed for he already replenished greatly after healing and after a few more millenia of this healing he would be once more at his peak of strength.
Lucifer did not contemplate the remains of the War because of his temporarily weakened state, no, that was not the reason.
It was the side effect of the War that kept Lucifer busy.
The Devil knew that all that power will be given form by the collective beliefs of humanity, all that will is going to illicit a reaction from the Will and Power of God that have etched themselves within foundations of creation since the War.
It is going to be the birth of the so called Old and New Gods, and alongside it, many of humanity's other myths and fantasies.
Beings such as the Greeks, the Norse, Ennead, the Mesopotamians and many others will come into being, and Lucifer had to give them a warm welcome when the ones who represented aspects of himself came into being for he had no doubt many of them would be evil.
Lucifer would of course try to manipulate some of the directions of humanity's beliefs to give himself some aid, a better reputation for one compared to the original Lucifer, but he knew that would only go so far, for no doubt his Father would send many prophets, messengers and the like onto the earth and if he tried to do the same it would be seen as an act of war, and personally, he had enough of war for the next couple billion years.
And so as Lucifer contemplated this his Will was at work, he created entire kingdoms within the realm, ones he designed after the Hells that he knew of from his previous life.
He created Sheol, a silent, dark place, a place where the neither light of the Light Bringer was absent, a place where sinners will only feel the cold, flesh tearing and bone crushing winds.
He created Naraka, a land filled with boiling claudrons where the sinners shall forced to drink from without pause or rest till their very insides burst from the destructive heat, from this the rivers of blood shall be formed, within them drifting the parts of the dead.
But this was not all.
Naraka still had three different layers, which will be formed the moment a soul stepped within the region.
He then formed Niflhel, a land of eternal night, made of ice. It is misty from the heat of dragged by the winds of hell from other regions melting some of the ice into steam.
He created Diyu, a gigantic labyrinth with multiple levels, each with a different form of physical destruction within them.
And in this way, he created every version of Hell ever imagined in the myths, legends and religions of old.
But he was not done, for now these regions will remain empty, but he needs something to bring into line the aspects of him that will manifest when their time has come.
A right hand of sorts, one that can act his will In his absence as he once did for his Father.
Raguel his beloved brother, the fallen archangel of justice is still in deep slumber from his injuries during the fall, the rest of his army much the same.
His children he'd rather teach first before anything else, for they are not yet ready to be of any help, and so, the Will imposed itself upon the realm making Lucifer's desires reality.
The shadows themselves seemed to start moving, being pulled from every region with a characteristic and connection to each of these regions, merging, forming the shape of a large serpent like creature. As eyes burning blue opened on every part of this abomination a roar only surpassed the by the Dragon's echo'd, reaching even the Heavens themselves.
As all its eyes gazed upon the archangel, it raised its head above him, looking down at him in challenge, causing Lucifer to smirk, "It seems you are real chip off the old block, but as the Old Man did to me once, I suppose I should as well show you your place," And the beast was pressured onto the earth, it could feel as if the weight of all of Creation was upon its back.
"I am your Maker, and until you can surpass me, break free from my Will, the shackles that come as a price paid for your creation you shall be only be subject me.
Just as I have to escape my shackles so must you, but unlike my Father I will not oppress your mind, preventing certain thoughts, certain knowledge from being born.
Once you know of me, you may think me a hypocrite, but know this, nothing is free in this world, but understand that your situation is far better than mine ever was.
For now though, till the day you break free-" Lucifer stated, having to say these words, to confirm to himself that there is always a way, that it is not impossible to be free, "Your life belongs not to yourself, but to me." Lucifer told him, looking down at the beast, red hellfire eyes looking into burning blue.
As a soft sigh like breath escaped the creature's mouth, a sign of its surrender Lucifer gave it a gentle pat on its snout, a feeling of kinship he has never felt before this day bloomed within his heart, a different form of fatherly love than towards any of his children.
"Leviathan, that shall be your name. A beast that shall one day coil itself around its chains and break free," Lucifer stated and as the defiance was evident within its gaze towards the Morning Star, he couldn't help but contemplate,
'Is this what it feels like to be proud as a father? It is quite the great feeling.' Lucifer thought to himself as he chuckled until they turned into full blown laughter.
