"It's either we make it out alive or we die here," Matthew muttered, drawing out his weapon. I looked at him in shock, but he was right in some way. This was a win-lose situation. Either we fight and make it out alive, or we die here, how would we kill Lucifer? I thought.The demons surrounded us, and they were even stronger than the ones we fought outside the demon world. We fought relentlessly, trying to break free from them but they were too many."There are too many of them. We need to find a way to reach Beelzebub. If we kill him, the demons will die," Matthew shouted over the demons roaring as he plunged his sword into one of the demon’s heart."We need to leave this place so we can gather our strength to finish off Beelzebub with the powers we have before they get drained by these demons," Gold added, sliding under a demon and stabbing it from the back to his heart.I closed my eyes, and suddenly, it became cloudy, with rain pouring down and wetting the floor. I opened my eyes
I stood there, hiding and trying to listen to every single thing they were saying. Beelzebub had an evil smirk on his face. I could tell he wasn't an easy one to handle.His heart was my main target, and I was waiting for the perfect time to attack. The others didn't take any action either. Beelzebub walked calmly to his throne and sat quietly, playing with his left hand lazily."What are you waiting for? Fight," he said."Destiny, you can come out now," he added, looking at his nails. I stood there like a rock, wondering how he knew I was there and how he knew my name."Come on, Destiny, don't waste my time. I know you've been standing there. Won't you come out and join us here?" he said, playing with his left finger.I stood there quietly, wondering if I should go or not. Hiding here wouldn't do me any good either. The others needed me so we could finally get this done once and for all.I took a deep breath, ready to face my enemy. This was a fight I was eager to win and finally put
"You look just like her, Destiny," he said with a smirk. I struggled for air, losing so much blood."Don't worry, Destiny. This isn't the end for you. I can't kill you yet," he added."Go to hell," I mumbled, spitting out blood from my mouth, which landed on his face. He laughed, looking down at his fingers."I'm already in hell," he said emotionlessly.Suddenly, he screamed in pain, and Beelzebub's head separated from his body. I gaped in shock—it was Lex who had cut it off.Beelzebub's blood splashed all over my face, covering me in crimson. The white cloth I wore was deeply stained. I looked at Lex and weakly smiled."You're losing so much blood," he said, helping me up from the ground and placing my hands on his neck for support. The rest of the group was already up."This should lead to the exit," Matthew said, and we followed him from behind."What about Destiny? These steps are too much for her. She is weak and dying," Kelvin muttered. I gave him a soft smile."Maybe we should
The room was filled with darkness, devoid of any light to testify whether it was day or night. I lay down on the soft bed, sporting a frown. My hair was messy, and I looked as though I hadn't slept in days, with dark lines under my eyes. I absentmindedly played with my belly button, placing my left hand on my stomach. Outside the room, I could hear the birds singing and creating a cacophony of noise."Morning," I mumbled.It had been a year since I had been locked up in this place. I couldn't even keep track of the date and time. Madam Jenna was the only one who came here every day, bringing me food and informing me of the date. She treated me like a human being, unlike the others. I couldn't fathom how my extended stay in this room would be of use to Beelzebub.Madam Jenna walked in with a tray of food, balancing it in her right hand while using her left hand to close the door behind her. She offered me a soft smile and sat down beside me on the bed, making contact with my body."How
I silently prayed that Master Yung would come for me. Whether he came or not, I couldn't let Beelzebub turn me into a demon without a fight. "I will find my way out of here," I said to myself.But with Master Yung's help, it would be easier. Master Yung is very strong and skilled, and I needed him in this desperate situation. Today was the second day, and by midnight, Beelzebub and his men would come for me to perform the ritual."Haha," I laughed at the thought. Beelzebub thinks he will turn me into his demon and I will just sit and watch. That will never happen.I wished I could see outside. I looked up at the little window, but it was too far and I couldn't reach the top. Even standing on the bed wouldn't be enough.I sighed, feeling anxious. "What will be my fate?" I thought. Madam Jenna entered, snapping me out of my daydream."My child, how are you?" she asked, holding my hands."I don't know how I feel right now, Madam. I don't want to become a demon," I said, looking into her
I scoffed at the name Beelzebub called me; there was no way I would ever become a demon, and to make things worse, he wanted to make me his queen.Beelzebub stood up from where he was sitting and walked up to me, standing in front of me, holding my chin with a smile. "When you finally become a demon, you will become my queen," he said. I didn't move or say anything; I kept hoping Master Yung would show up any minute before things got weirder. I quickly brushed his hand away from mine."Let me go," I mumbled. He turned his back and returned to his seat."Please proceed," he said, raising his hand and sitting down majestically on his throne. An old woman, looking like a witch, stepped forward. I started getting nervous as she brought out a knife and used it to cut my hand, then she brought out a black cup and made my dark, red blood pour inside it."What the hell?" I whispered, crying in pain.Three men came rushing in, breathing heavily, and bowed their heads to Beelzebub, whispering s
"We're going to die!" I cried out, praying the door would open soon. And almost immediately, the door swung open, and we ran out, pushing our legs to their limits."Where is the porter that will lead us out?" I yelled, breathing heavily."Give it a minute," he muttered. The demons didn't give up either as they kept chasing us relentlessly."Why didn't you tell me?" I asked, frowning."No time for explanations now," he replied.We dashed into the forest that would guide us to safety. The last time I was here with the guys, it was different. There was no forest; the porter led us straight to his castle. Beelzebub is a wise person; I could tell by his actions and everything. He must have changed the porter.I continued breathing heavily and stumbled, hitting my forehead on the ground.“Fuck…” I muttered underneath my breath and a hand was stretched to me, pulling me up."This is not the perfect time to take a nap, Destiny!" Master Yung yelled. I glanced behind, hoping to see the ugly bea
I averted my gaze, hoping he wouldn't notice how I kept staring at him from head to toe. What was wrong with me? Why was I looking at him like that? I felt embarrassed. "Destiny," he muttered coldly."Yes," I said in a whisper, hoping he wouldn't do anything nasty. I kept thinking, what if he strangled me to death or used me as his breakfast?He stared at me with that cold expression once again. "I didn't call you here to kill you, Destiny," he said, as if he had just read my mind and I released a deep breath."If I wanted to end you, I would have done so a long time ago," he added, then disappeared into another room, presumably the dressing room.My legs were getting tired from standing. He took longer than I expected before coming out from his dressing room."What... Can I do for you?" I mumbled, biting my lips hard."How are you?" he said, shocking the hell out of me. I cleared my throat, having forgotten how to speak."Ummm... Why am I here?" I muttered instead, trying to sound po
