It had been five days, and there was no way I could get out of here. June wasn't in favor of escaping because there seemed to be no way out. Or perhaps she loved it here, safe from the outside world.I remembered our initial mission was to go to the Ice Valley Kingdom to gain Night Fighters on our side to end Lucifer and his demons. But instead, we were directed to go to Beelzebub. It felt like a distraction; he directed us elsewhere and focused on something that was going to slow us down, slowing down the mission.Master Yung, or I should say Mammon, had been trying to figure out why he sent us here instead of Lucifer. What was his deal with Beelzebub? Did he intentionally bring us here to separate the team so his brother Lucifer could continue and grow stronger with his evil plans? One thing I had learned about this world we were in was never to trust a devil's son.The longer we took, the stronger and more dangerous things became for us. This mission was supposed to last for a year
“Beelzebub‘s POV”I sat quietly at the dining room, playing with my nails, a frown on my handsome face. My eyes didn't leave the entrance door for a moment. Yes, I was expecting her. It was already past 6, and yet she hadn't shown up.I felt like a fool again. I could probably go to her room and blow up her head. I didn't have any patience left in me. But with her, it was different."Why would she show up when she literally thinks you are a monster?" my inner voice said, and I scoffed."Fuck," I said.The door opened slowly, and I could see her head popping up. She looked so cute as usual, her white hair falling on her body, making her look like the goddess she already was. Her short, armless dress made her look sexy, revealing her beautiful shape. She was worth dying for.She gave me a weak smile. It was tempting to smile back at her, but I ended up looking away. She was more than perfection, I thought."I'm sorry for being late. I wanted to look my best," she said, and I nodded. I w
“Destiny’s POV”He left me all alone in the dining room, and I saw a different side of him today. He was nervous. I never could have imagined the great Beelzebub being nervous about something. Maybe he wasn't as bad as I thought.I stayed there, hoping that maybe he might show up or come back to finish his untouched food, but he didn't. I got tired of waiting, so I left and headed back to my dorm.I opened my room door and closed it behind me, and saw June with a big smile on her face sitting on my bed. "What's up with you?" I said, sitting beside her."How was it? Your date with Beelzebub?" she said, and I giggled."Who told you it was a date?" I questioned."Madam Jenna. She said you ate with Beelzebub in his special dining hall," she said dramatically."Oh, come on. It's not even a date. Probably, you don't even know what a date is," I muttered."Come to think of it, he didn't say much to me," I added."Then why did he invite you to join him?" she asked."I don't know," I mumbled,
“Beelzebub‘s POV”Deep down in my heart, I wanted to consider allowing Destiny to continue her mission in hunting down my brother, Lucifer. It had been two days since I last saw her. I left her all alone in my bedroom the last time we spoke. Whenever she's around me, I get this strange feeling burning inside me, and I don't want to do anything silly around her.I could count different reasons why Destiny going out there wouldn't be good for her. My brother would end her. She probably thinks Lucifer is damn easy to take down, but that's where she is wrong. I could never be a match for my brother, so how will she kill him? Not a chance, because she is still weak.I don't want to risk her life to save everyone. Maybe sitting and doing nothing might be best for her. Almost immediately, I heard a soft knock on my door. "Come in," I said, coughing a little to adjust the crack in my voice.It was her, Destiny, right in front of me, looking beautiful as always. She had her hair tied into two
I entered Beelzebub's room and pleaded with him to release me so I could find my friends. However, Beelzebub refused, saying, "Don't bother me," which left me feeling frustrated and defeated."What's his deal?" I mumbled, tears welling up in my eyes. Does he see me as a weak girl? I recalled hearing him tell Madam Jenna that I was weak because I couldn't fight him without getting killed, and defeating Lucifer would be a problem for me.After years of training, I still wasn't strong enough. Maybe, at some point, he was right. It reminded me of when I was just a child, getting bullied by my schoolmates who called me a weak princess. I never won a fight and was always very scared. But now, it's different. I can take down thousands of demons within seconds.June stood beside me, her hands on my back, giving me a soft smile. I turned to June for advice, and she suggested that we join a warrior fight organized by Beelzebub."It might come in handy," she said.I agreed to join the fight, hop
As his hand caressed the back of my bar stool, a sudden jolt of realization snapped me back to my senses. Startled, I swiftly pushed him away from my body and bolted, my legs carrying me as fast as they could. I rushed straight to my dorm, my heart pounding in my chest. I couldn't fathom that I had just made out with Beelzebub, a son of a devil.Moments later, June entered the room, her eyes filled with curiosity. "Why are you perspiring so profusely?" she inquired, stepping closer to me."Bel... Beelze... Bub and I," I stammered, my voice trembling as I struggled to form coherent words."I don't understand, Destiny. What's wrong?" June asked again, her brows furrowed with concern."Beelzebub and I made out in his room," I mumbled, feeling my cheeks flush with embarrassment as I anxiously glanced down at my fancy shoes. Nervousness took hold of me, unsure of how she'd react to this unexpected revelation.I had anticipated June yelling at me or looking shocked, but to my surprise, she
"Beelzebub""please spare her life," Destiny pleaded with tears in her beautiful blue ocean eyes. Though I had intended to punish both Destiny and June, I found myself unable to hurt her. Instead, I transferred my aggression to her friend June, knowing how much June meant to her.But seeing Destiny beg at my feet, crying, shattered my heart. I couldn't bear it any longer, so I softened my grip on June, allowing her to breathe again. "Thank you," I heard Destiny whisper, and I left them.I went straight to Sofie's dorm. There, I found her sitting on one of the guards' laps, rubbing his head. I rolled my eyes at their behavior and the guard quickly noticed my presence, pushing Sofie away."My lord, I... I didn't do anything wrong," he stammered nervously."You can go," I muttered, and the guard hurriedly left the room."What was that all about, grandpa?" Sofie glared at me."I didn't raise you to be like this, Sofie. I know you've been sleeping with some of the guards," I said, and she
"Stay with me for the night," he whispered into my ear, sending shivers down my spine. His hands were wrapped around my waist, pulling me closer to him.Why wasn't I complaining, I wondered. As I gazed into his big brown eyes, I noticed their beauty. Whenever I looked into them, an indescribable feeling stirred within me. He gently rested my head on his chest; I could smell his captivating scent. I tried to look up at him and noticed that he was already sound asleep, his long lashes looking amazing truly the embodiment of perfection.I didn't even realize when I driftedcomfortably off to sleep in his arms.******************************************************************I woke up, and his face was right in front of mine. I still couldn't believe I had spent the whole night in his room. He was still sound asleep. Glancing at the wall clock, I realized it was past six in the morning. My gaze returned to him, and I found myself admiring him once more."When you're done admiring my f
I walked out of my kingdom, sword in hand, with Beelzebub at my side. The city had scattered, demons feasting on helpless humans. Knights stood behind us as I screamed, "Attack!" They rushed forward, engaging in battle.Entering the chaos, a massive demon approached. Two horns adorned its head, and a tail snaked behind—a grotesque and intimidating sight."The great ice princess has lost her powers. How can you fight now? I will kill you this moment," the demon taunted, advancing. In response, I used my sword to sever its right leg, causing it to fall in pain.I thrust my sword into its head, blood splashing across my forehead.Immediately, a sharp pain shot through me as a demon used its long nails to dig into my back, blood streaming from my mouth. Despite the agony, I retaliated, thrusting my sword into its stomach from behind. Turning around, I faced the fallen demon, swiftly cutting off its head.Holding my bleeding stomach, I surveyed the battlefield. The demons I had killed vani
The others rushed over as demons surrounded us, chaos unfolding. Unable to handle the onslaught, Beelzebub teleported us away before Lucifer could strike.Now in a forest, Kelvin and I carefully laid Camila against a tree, her neck still bleeding."I should call for help," Beelzebub suggested, and I nodded in agreement. He went to seek assistance, explaining that the magic porter couldn't cross the ocean."Guys," Camila's weak voice called. We gathered around, holding her hands."I think this is my end," she said, coughing blood."Don't say that. Help is coming; everything will be okay," I reassured with a forced smile."We can't lose another person," I added."Hang in there, please," June pleaded."Promise me you will end this war for all the innocent lives, revenge your mother, and revenge us," Camila weakly requested.Tears fell uncontrollably; wiping them away, I wondered how I could end the war without my powers."Why are you saying this? You can't die; you'll be fine," I insiste
"Don't you dare touch her," Kevin's voice echoed from behind me, his sword dripping with blood.Lucifer laughed mockingly. "I have taken away her powers, so you can have her. She's useless now," he said, dropping me on the floor, and I felt as if all my bones had broken. Weakness consumed me, and I sensed something vital had been taken away.Kevin helped me to my feet, and I gazed at the others, noticing concern written all over their faces. June walked up to me, scrutinizing me as if I had something on my face."What's wrong, guys? Why are you looking at me as if I have something on my face?" I asked weakly."Your hair, it's no longer white; it's black now," she said, and I ran my hands through my hair.The laughter of Lucifer brought me back to reality. "Your powers are gone for good," he said. I raised my hands, attempting to use my ice powers, but nothing came out. The emptiness I felt now made sense – I had nothing left inside of me.I tried to hold back tears, but I couldn't. I
Before I could say anything again, Kelvin transformed into his wolf form, breaking the chain due to his large size and creating a distraction. Camila seized the opportunity to run toward me.I held her hand, bringing her closer to me. Now, Kelvin and Camila were safely standing with us.Lucifer, still emotionless, suddenly burst out into loud laughter."Do you think you can escape from here? Do you even know where you are? Try looking outside, princess," he smirked, raising his hand to point to the window opposite us.I walked to the window, my eyes fixed on him, and then I gazed outside.I gasped in shock, unable to believe my eyes. It was a dead end, and it was dark. There was no light, and I couldn't see anything outside. The sky wasn't blue but rather a deep red in color, something I had never seen before.I attempted to look again and saw some white hands, as if they were trying to wave. I couldn't quite understand what they were, and the darkness made it difficult to see clearly
I continued running on the water's surface, creating ice with every step. The waves and cold breeze brushed against my skin, and the ocean's surface tried to pull me under, but I instantly froze it and ascended. I could see the exit; I was almost there. A smile spread across my face, knowing that nothing could hinder me now.I was aware that Beelzebub might be watching from a distance, or perhaps, he had lost sight of me because I had covered a great distance.Now, I stood at the edge of the ocean, stepping onto the dry land. It wasn't sandy but rocky beneath my feet. I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.My eyes searched for the others, but they were nowhere to be found. Annoyance welled up within me; they couldn't have left without me. Just as I was about to turn back, a powerful force struck me, knocking me to the ground. I fell onto the hard, bare rock, my head making a painful impact, and I lost consciousness.****I tried moving my left hand, but it felt stiff, just like t
Seething with anger, I occupied my throne, plagued by the regret of letting her go. I was convinced she wouldn't survive the treacherous ocean. My palms sweated, and I found myself tapping the ground impatiently with my foot.Suddenly, the door burst open, and one of my men entered, his demeanor visibly solemn."My lord," he began, his voice laced with apprehension. "They safely passed through the portal," he informed me, and I nodded in response, using my hand to dismiss him.Soon after, Sophie entered, her expression marred by a deep frown. She wasted no time in voicing her displeasure."I thought you loved her," she said, anger radiating from her every word."You know the ocean means death, and she can't make it. You're weak, Beelzebub, incapable of fighting for your love, just sitting here, watching her die," she said, her words stinging with anger.I gritted my teeth in annoyance and retorted, "Watch your tongue, or I might assist you in cutting it off." Sophie, unfazed, simply r
The vast ocean stretched out before us, and as I looked at my team, I could see the fear in their eyes. The enormity of the challenge ahead was apparent to all of us. We needed a substantial boat to navigate this formidable body of water, but Beelzebub had warned us that the sea could swallow us whole. Beelzebub came to our aid and provided us with a porter."We should take a moment to consider how we're going to get through this," Kelvin suggested, taking a seat on a large rock.I joined Kelvin on the rock and tried to understand his frustration. "I don't know why you're so upset with me," I said, and he simply shook his head."I'm not mad at you, Destiny. I understand that you were also a prisoner, but regardless, we're free now," he replied, and I smiled in acknowledgment."I believe I have an idea," I said, capturing the attention of the rest of the team as they stood up."I will attempt to part the water so that you can pass through," I proposed, and they all nodded in agreement.
My friends stood before me, looking tired and unkempt, as though they hadn't bathed for weeks. I rushed to them, giving them a tight hug. Oh, how I had missed them."I've missed you guys," I said, hugging Camila tightly, and she returned the hug, sniffling at my back. She seemed on the verge of tears but held them back. They must have gone through so much, I thought.Kelvin, on the other hand, eyed me strangely, his gaze immediately shifting to Beelzebub."What are you doing with this monster?" he spat, his voice filled with anger."He was the one who put us inside the demon's lair," he continued, his hair standing on end, and his fists clenched."Will you just calm down, or I'll finish what I started," Beelzebub roared in response.Gold shot Beelzebub a death glare, as if he were ready to attack him at any moment."This is not the time to fight, guys. I'm glad you're all alive," I said, walking up to Kelvin, but he stepped back, avoiding me."You were here all along, and we kept look
Lex sat beside me on the bed, holding my hand with a loving smile on his face. Sofie and June had left us alone, disappearing to God knows where."Do you know how much I've missed you?" he said, gazing into my eyes and gently cupping my face. His sudden change in mood filled me with joy."What's the matter?" I asked, placing my hands on his soft cheek."I don't think Beelzebub will let us live here," he confessed, and I sighed."But I'll take you out of here. We don't need him to decide. We can both take him down if he gets in our way," he added with determination."No, no, no, we're not taking anyone down. He didn't hurt me during my stay here. Let's just leave in peace," I said, struggling to understand my own conflicted feelings. Living Beelzebub had somehow broken something inside me, but I couldn't put my finger on why I felt this way."Okay, fine, we should go in peace," Lex agreed.Without wasting a moment, Lex brought my face closer, leaning in for a kiss. I closed my eyes eag
