Chương 34: ARC THREE:CH-3.4
WARNING: SPOILER AT THE END OF THE CHAPTER.
"My king, What exactly is going on?"
Hell stared at all the six generals gathered before him. They were kneeling before him paying their respects to the demon king.
The one who spoke was Lucifer. His skin was pale and his eyes were red like blood. He was tall and held a demonic aura. His presence made Hell feel better after the awful feeling he had went through a few days ago.
"I have been looking for a person. But it seems like he has disappeared into thin air, nowhere to be found." Hell answered. His heart felt at ease seeing his generals as well as his concubines present before him. He have to tell them too. "Also, my father has woken up."
"!!!" As soon as everyone present there heard him speak those words their facial expressions changed from serious to shock, extreme shock and terror.
"But my king, didn't we seal him off after poisoning him to eternal sleep? That curse doesn't have a cure so how the hell did he....." Both Lucifer and Asmodeus exclaimed at the same time. They looked at each other realising that they were a bit shaken up by the sudden news of the king they betrayed waking up from his slumber.
"Right." Mammon joined the conversation as well. "King Hades never wanted us to wage war against the humans. This news could cause an uproar in our world, the world we built on our blood sweat and tears. Demon king Hell, please give us the order. We will obey your command if you wish to deal with king Hades." He knelt down on the floor with his one knee, waiting for Hell's command.
"Demon king, we serve your throne alone. We await your command!"
All the generals knelt before Hell, prostrating before him, waiting for him to speak.
But what the demon king said following their actions wasn't something they expected either.
"Satan is dead."
This single statement made the generals look at Hell with their piercing gazes.
"He was killed. By the person I am currently looking for." Hell added.
"Impossible!" Lucifer shouted. His raging aura exploded violently making the castle ground tremble a bit. "Satan is dead? That has to be a joke! He is the strongest of us all, the one who killed that hero blessed by the gods and angels and you are telling us that he was killed by one single person?"
Hell stared at Lucifer. His eyes narrowed at him. "Lucifer..." He stood up from the throne. Releasing pressure onto him his eyes became bloodshot. "Are you questioning my sight?"
"!!" The generals were surprised at his words.
"Does that mean...you saw him die, my king?" Beelzebub was beyond shock. The demon king saw Satan being killed yet.....
"I...I was there too." A feminine voice interrupted their serious conversation. It was the water spirit Elvis. "It was my host who killed Satan."
The six generals slanted their eyes towards the water spirit.
"What do you mean?" They questioned Elvis the threat in their eyes obvious to him.
"My human host died of hunger. So I entered his body to make it mine. It was going fine initially but suddenly my host woke up. And moreover, his soul constitute changed drastically. I couldn't control him and he went berserk, killing hundreds of Demon king's soldiers. Even Satan was not a match for him. While he was squashing Satan's demon hearts I was still trapped inside his body unable to resist or act at my volition." Elvis explained the strange phenomena he had experienced with his host as much as he could.
The demon king as well as the generals listened to his words. By the end of the Infromation a frown formed on their faces.
The human died and suddenly arose with a completely different strength than from before. Moreover he was able to kill Satan by stabbing through his seven demon hearts. With bare hands.
"That is no ordinary human!" Lucifer exclaimed with utter seriousness.
"If what Elvis said about the human holding destructive power despite the spirit out of its body...." Abadon had a bad premonition about this enitre thing. He yawned thinking about the conclusion deliberately so that someone else would follow up.
Belphegor stared at Hell. "Is he perhaps the new hero of this era?"
The generals froze at his words but deep down they knew this conclusion was logically right.
Damn it! They cursed. To prevent the birth of a new rising hero they had been eliminating every possible candidate but how could they ignore the summons who were also humans, could also be the rising hero of the human race. It was a miscalculation on their part. Moreover Hades has also woken up. The current situation grasping them was very problematic.
Hell could tell what they were thinking. So he warned them before hand. "Don't even think about fighting my father. He is stronger than before. Infact, his strength right now is unfathomable. Even me including all of my people does not stand a chance against him. Give up on defeating him."
They were silent. How could they forget Hades, the strength he had was what prevented the demons from warring against the human races. Because the demons wanted to rise up, the seven princes of the demon race including the next heir to the throne staged an attack against him yet they lost miserably. Luckily that was a part of their scheme and the actual attack succeeded. That was how Hell and the seven generals cursed Hades to an eternal slumber.
They can't win against him. All of them knew. So no one spoke a word against Hell's statement.
"Instead search for William. If he is indeed the next hero of the human race then he must not meet those priests. Unless we want another war to be born. Use all your means to find William. And mark my words." Hell spoke. "You can injure him but don't kill him. Bring him back before me, alive." The momentum of his speech was authorative, deserving of his demon king title.
"We don't want the humans and those priests to know that there are two humans who are causing an uproar in the castle."
"Two? Who is the other one?" Asmodeus asked.
"The only human summon who could withstand Ignete's spirit. Sadly he is overpowering Ignete right now and it's causing a bit of a trouble."
The demons knew the nature of the humans. They were weak and insignificant like ants. But...they were persistent creatures and this persistence of theirs proved to be too troublesome to the demons. They had seen it all in the previous holy war.
Meanwhile the two people they were fussing about were currently walking around the cities exploring the streets.
"Is it good?" Hades asked watching Ivar bite into the delicious looking snack in his hand.
Ivar glanced to his side before replying. "Its not bad."
They were enjoying the strange street food these shops were offering. Even the material of these sweets were eccentric. The demon race was really strange being into such strange tasting foods like this.
Cerberus walked behind them as well. He had his human form right now except that his pink hair was a purple shade. His master has become strange. He thought. Cerberus had always known that Hades was disinterested in the affairs of humans nor did he wanted to involve him or the demon race in their affairs. But he never ever thought that his master would end up chasing so enthusiastically after a mere human.
"Love is so unfair." He sighed following his master quietly.
Nulis was also very pleased with the system money bank. It was pilling up very fast. Thanks to William's easy going wishes. All they had to do was run and enjoy to earn more and more. Moreover, its host was aslo having a date. A win-win is always better than a free bread.
"Wah! So romantic!" The system squealed staring at the scene before it. Its metalic cheeks were blushing red with jealousy.
"I also want to go on a date. But sadly I cannot even remember who I am. Also worst of all I don't even have a physical body. Wuwu."
The system was envious yet it was also very happy for its host.
Ivar was reluctant to admit that he was having a bit of fun. The company he had right now made him feel at ease for some reasons. He kept glancing at Hades from time to time. Because he had to strain his neck to look up at the very tall guy since he was very short, his nape was hurting a bit.
He let out a low groan.
"What's wrong?" Hades was very attentive towards his kitty. Of course he saw him sneaking glances at his face so he had to restrain his lips from curving up. It was so hard to control his lips so that he wouldn't smile creepily.
Ivar was taken aback by his attentiveness. He scratched his nape a bit, the act was done very awkwardly. "No...thing." He replied pretending as nonchalant as he could be.
He then felt a warm hand touch his nape. The hand stretched its fingers all over the place and pressed them onto his skin, massaging it in circles.
"!!" His body flinched a bit.
"This helps in relaxing the strain. Bear with it." Hades smiled at him. The smile was of good will but of course he had hidden ulterior motive. Like how he could have heal it with his magic yet he didn't only so that he could have a bit of intimacy with his person. So at the excuse of massaging he stood a bit closer to his kitty while massaging his neck.
"....." Ivar kept still. He could heal it with his powers if he wanted to. But for some reason he didn't do it...or maybe the massage was so relaxing and well executed that he didn't heal himself.
Now that he thought about it, this person was currently a demon. The very thing Ivar hated. However the smell and the presence of this person, although he was a demon right now it didn't arouse Ivar's immense hatred for this race.
At this point he knew it himself. That Ivar saw him as a person and not just someone who shapes into another person in every world. He was him. Just him and no one else.
"What's your real name, by the way?"
At the sudden question thrown at him, Hades was really astounded by it. What did he just say? Did he? Did he ask for his name? His kitty did?
"I am asking about your real identity." Ivar repeated his question again.
An evil, menacing smile graced the tall demon's lips. His eyes curved with amusement. Finally his kitty was taking some interest in knowing him but.....
Too bad he didn't gave things for free.
"You are curious? Well then, let's do this." His left brow arched up in amusement as he added. "You tell me yours and I will tell mine too."
Greed is a curse. But you can never stop yourself from being greedy despite knowing that it's a curse.
"...." Ivar was speechless.
Even Nulis thought that this guy would readily tell it's host his name. Turns out he is still very scheming and cunning.
"Forget it then." Ivar spat at him a bit annoyed.
"Ohhh....you are angry?" Hades continued to tease him. "But I want to know your name too. It's unfair if I am the only one telling. So lets just do it together." He suggested shamelessly.
Ivar ignored his words. He kept eating the sweets silently not saying anything as they walked.
He frowned at this discomforting feeling in his heart. Heaving a long sigh he turned around to face Hades. Then he moved his lips.
"Ivar. My name is Ivar."
Hades stared at him blankly.
Ivar sighed. As expected this person couldn't understand his language. Afterall every time he said his own name it would come out in his original world's speech.
"....bar?"
"!!!!" The sudden word made him freeze. Even the pronounciation was a bit similar.
Hades stroked his chin. "Hm...its mysterious as to why I can't understand what you are saying. So forgive me if I got your name wrong. I could only catch the last part which I found a bit similar to 'bar.' Ahem." He coughed lightly.
"...what did you say?" Ivar stared at him intently. "My name, say it again." His eyes were glued onto the other person's face. His heart was shaken up a bit right now.
Actually he was trembling with a familiar feeling right now.
Hades saw the situation his kitty was in. He was pleased with himself. Did he managed to shake him up like this? If so, he was very happy to know that his kitty was begining to relate himself with him.
"Bar? No I mean.. Bar." He repeated after himself.
"Bar.....Ibar..." A sweet angelic childish voice echoed in his memory.
"Hm." Ivar felt his heart soften. He stared at Hades, a smile adorning his face. "I like it. Call me that."
Hades widened his eyes. Seeing his kitty smile like this towards him.....it was so unfair.
"Hah!" He sighed. Then he walked up to the shorter person.
"Wang Lei." He said stroking Ivar's cheek. This act was so intimate and tender. "Call me Wang Lei."
"Wang Lei?" Ivar repeated. He touched the warm hand stroking his cheek.
"Yes. Guang Wang Lei." Hades confirmed. "That is my name."
"Wait what?" The system was petrified at this sudden revelation.
