Dear God even when the world comes to an end I can't seem to escape history lessons"
"I'm not letting you miss out on this. If you do you end up killed by one and that's going to be on me"
"If it means I have to learn history I don't care"
I turned away from him and curled up like a ball on the floor
"I'd rather be dead than have to listen to this"
Immediately after my statement Achryxous grinned, walked up to me, squatted next to me and said
"So, you're saying don't plan on meeting Akira? Well, here I thought that was the whole reason we were doing this… Or could it be! You wish to stay with me instead?"
I turned around and grabbed him by his robes and looked him dead in his eyes
"Don't ever use Akira against me again. I may not be able to hurt or beat you but if I have to die to teach you a lesson somehow I will"
He grinned extra wide basically from ear to ear then he held my hand and said
"That's a much more encouraging energy I'm getting from you, Eddy"
"I'll study as much as I need to from you to save Akira. I will meet up with her so don't try to use her against me"
"Alright then"
The whole area suddenly began to shake and there was loud screaming from above as though people were going to war. I also heard cynical laughter mixed in along with over a hundred footsteps crashing into everything and trampling on the ground as though it was some great march. I looked up for a brief second and the monster that flew overhead had hidden in holes in the walls when I looked back down I saw Achryxous's face was stiffened. I couldn't understand the sudden expression on his face but he seemed annoyed
"Tsk!"
He said annoyed with something though that something was about to become clear
"We no longer have the time to take this into detail, I'll give you a short list of those who matter from the princes and ministers but the rest you'll find out on your own. I'll give you other short details before I send you off but they'll be very, very short and I'll be quick so you have to catch up and try your best to understand them later on as you deal with all of this"
"I don't understand, what's going on?"
"It's a raid it isn't safe for you here anymore. We have fifteen minutes before they jump over or into this place"
"Bu…"
"Listen, Eddy, we do not have the time nor the luxury for me to explain. Now focus
Princes of Dignitaries under the grand order of the cross
Prince of rebels and dethroned chief Satan aka Lucifer
Prince of the country of tears Moloch
Prince of fire or governor of Flames Pluton
Prince of Incubi Lilith
Prince of Succubi Leonard
Lord of Alliances Ballberith
Princess of evil spirits Prosperina
Ministers of the Grand Orders of the cross
Grand chancellor Adrammelech
General treasurer Ashtarath
Chief of the secret police Nergal
Commander in chief of the armies of hell Baal
Grand admiral Leviathan.
All of these you need to remember"
"Achryxous there's no way I'll remember that"
I said as I grabbed him by both his arms
"Then this will help"
He lifted his index finger on his right hand and covered it in blue light after that he chanted some words
"What is that supposed to do?"
He looked at me, he smiled, he lifted his finger right over his face and said
"Remember"
After that, he put his fingers inside my head. His finger tore through my skull and entered into the frontal lobe of my brain and with that, I felt like I had died. I collapsed on the floor as all the information flooded my brain. I wasn't able to move or feel, the only things that worked were my eyes but the whole time looking up my vision was blurry. Time became so very slow but Achryxous was moving at a normal pace. He squatted over me on my left and said to me
"I had forgotten to tell you that each angel has specific abilities earlier. Material weapons humans made won't work against humans or demons but their weapons will. If you want to survive you need the weapons of these angels from the nine. Whichever one I don't mention doesn't have anything you can use as a weapon so don't try to get anything from them or you will die
The heart of a throne is a smaller version of themselves without the eyes. It's a fireball surrounded by golden rings
Dominions use a staff it isn't too strong but it can still work
Virtues have really powerful weapons because they can control elements and nature and their weapons help conduct their power rather than them using it by hand. If you can get those
Powers are a warrior class so I don't need to explain to you how getting their weapons and armor would greatly benefit
Archangels are also a warrior class but less powerful so you can take that as a substitute
Principalities and Virtues have weapons that I'm not sure you can use but you can try"
I was throbbing on the floor and foaming from the mouth and Achryxous didn't even seem bothered but while I was he told me
"Everything I just told you, you are going to remember because my power is still in effect so don't worry and you're not dying. Once everything is stored inside you you'll be unconscious for a bit"
He quickly got up and started to use his fingers to play with the air. I thought he had lost his mind for a brief second but then I felt the air around me change. The air had started to concentrate in his hands, as he kept on playing with the wind in his palms a blue light appeared, and he smiled closing his hands. He took a few more steps forward and quickly separated his hands while throwing the light away from him.
"That right there Is a portal. I'm going to throw you through that thing to send you someplace safe but you'll be asleep during the ride because it looks like my powers are about to ware off so two more things I need to say. First off do not get caught by patrolling demons, they will torture you so avoid areas close to active hell gates"
Suddenly the chains from before wrapped around my body. Achryxous went down on a knee put a finger in the hole in my head and tasted my blood. After he was done he got up and rubbed some on the chain. He then squeezed his fists and the chains tightened around my body. After that, he smiled at me and said
"Second thing is that ill be leaving my weapon with you. You're the new owner. Think of it as a gift for never giving you anything other than trouble, you're also going to be vulnerable until you get another weapon. Not that you need it because this is pretty strong itself but it will be safer to have two so take it with you until then"
One of the chains slinks off of me and wraps his right arm
"Remember Eddy survive, Akira is counting on you so you have to survive to see her in the end. I have faith in you ED"
He grabbed the chain tightly and flung me through the portal. That's all I can remember, once my chin touched the portal I instantly fell asleep
"You can come out now! I know you have been watching and got down here a while ago..."
Achryxous turns back with a little grin on the edge of his lip
"Lucifer"
He then says with a deep voice. A figure in a hood then floats out of the fire with souls grabbing onto his coat but turning to ash as they try. He floats towards Achryxous
"Is there a reason you faked the raid?"
Lucifer asks trying to understand Achryxous intent but Achryxous doesn't respond he just laughs and floats over to his throne
"What can I say Lucifer, the boy just seems to intrigue me. So I think ill just help him out a bit"
"You know what you're doing is fruitless and foolish. The boy will perish, he cannot survive a month let alone seven years. What if the boy dies"
The smile Achryxous had along with the excitement is robbed from him
"That's why you are no fun, never willing to enjoy things. If he dies so be it, but I have faith the boy isn't going to die"
"Is that why you lied and sent him to a location 300 yards away from a hell gate?"
"So, you knew? Well I have to make it more challenging for him or he won't blossom properly"
"You know he isn't going to be happy if he hears about this right?"
Achryxous drops his hand on his thrones arm handles and shatters it while shouting in anger. He then takes deep breaths and calms himself
"Don't think I care Lucifer. He isn't my problem, he isn't my boss, and I never answered him. Judgement is calling for all of us it's about time we all learned that there can be no authority in the world we're in. It isn't coming for man alone but for us to
"I apologise. I'll take my leave now"
"Do as you please"
Right before Lucifer leaves
"One more thing"
"What is it now Lucifer?"
"Should I report this to him?"
"Do you want to?"
They both glare at each other. Achryxous slowly raises his finger but Aucifer walks away
"I know better than to pick a fight with you. I'll say nothing but make sure to keep your activities hushed so he doesn't find out. Have a good day…Achryxous"
"Whatever. I'm not scared of him"
"Whatever you say Achryxous"
"Tsk! What a pain. Now"
The thrones arm rest regenerates itself allowing Achryxous to rest his hand on it
"Let's see what you do Eddy. Let's see how you fare against this new cruel world. Clocks ticking so you best be quick Eddy, tik tok, tik tok, tik tok goes the clock so you best hurry up. Because. Judgement calls"
