I contemplated the bike’s slanting seat. It was so high. How was I supposed to sit on it? “When I said I wouldn’t let you fall… I wasn’t just talking about the hoverboard,” he said in an impassive tone. I contemplated my reflection in the shield of his helmet. I couldn’t see his face or his expres
[Xanthea] Raven drove slowly into the university premises. Pulling up the shield of my helmet, I looked at the grand statue of the four horned devil wearing a skeletal mask. Several smaller demon statues surrounded him. The wings of all those demons were broken. The smaller demons clambered on o
Sneaking into the parking lot, stealing a kiss, or maybe something more. I lowered my gaze as I felt the heat fade away from my face at the thought. Before my thoughts could occupy my mind further, the glowing elevator panel caught my attention. Instead of numbers of the floors, there were depart
“You were having a nap. I didn’t want to disturb you.” The cigarette boy said. “I am your healing partner, meow! You can’t just leave me there, meow!” she hissed, baring her teeth at him. “Do you know how expensive it is to have me as your healing partner, meow?” “I never wanted you as my healing
[Xanthea] As soon as the door of the elevator opened, a whole nother world of healers opened up to me, bustling with activities and filled with a diverse assembly of students, staff, and uniqueness of the Infernal pack. “Where the hell did you teleport the patient, Karima!?” I almost bumped into
A heavy horrifying feeling soon replaced the excitement in my veins. I knit my brows, trying hard to not look into the labs. “Don’t worry, they are trained as subjects. They have a high tolerance to physical pain and they are licensed subjects. They earn a living by allowing the healing students to
“Oh… that’s... new…” “Yeah, but that Kieth of a shit is an ungrateful brat! Meow! Meow!” Zosha hissed, stamping her feet angrily on the floor as rage flashed in her eyes with tears again. “By the way, where are we going?” I asked. The busy corridors became more and more isolated as we moved ahead
[Xanthea] Azum stopped at some distance from me. His gaze tried to decipher me while his face remained unreadable. Then he shut his eyes, his fingers glided in the air as though he were playing an invisible piano. And then his hands moved as though he was conducting an orchestra. He started hummi
‘Damage level?’ Icifer asked.‘Low,’ I said.Icifer allowed the mouse prince to pass through, who was shortly followed by Nikolai, who tried to sneak behind him, thinking it would be safe to get near my shadows now that two high rank celestials had entered.But only the two made it through.The mort
The relentless frequency of those attempts reflected his desperation. And the fact that he was here today himself could only mean one thing — he was here to rescue his granddaughter from demon lords, by any means necessary.I had a feeling he’d risk war for it if necessary, but no one understood the
[Asher]Crepuscular rays of the sun split through the sky like blades of light as dawn bled across the horizon.A pillar of light, streaked with golden scintillation, crashed down from the heavens near the mouse prince — bridging the Celestial realm to the Earthly realm. And one by one, higher celes
“Since you haven’t taken us back to the Infernal realm already, it means…” she hesitated.“I want you to meet them,” I said.“Why?” I felt her fingers tremble. “Is it because of… my… m-mother?”She might have gotten out of her guilt, but that didn’t change a thing about her feelings towards her moth
I knew. That was exactly why I wanted to suppress him. But arguing would be pointless.Icifer wouldn’t back down, and if I pushed too hard, he might not let Xanthea meet the celestials at all.I shut my eyes.I’ll just have to deal with it.But before that…My hands glided up Xanthea’s thighs. My sh
He chuckled, glaring at the barrier with a sneer.“Here, he’s just another demon. And demons don’t stand a chance against celestials. You and your people can easily slay him and bring the great demon lord to his knees — to his fucking doom,” Nikolai said.I tilted my head.The arrogant superiority t
[Asher]“The crown prince is here!”A celestial guard’s voice rang across the Virgo army, silencing the murmurs as a masked figure strode forward.The emblem of the Solvaris pack was engraved into his golden chest armor, adorned with the complete nine stars of the Swan constellation. The celestials
‘The only one who gets to decide who her family is, is Xanthea herself. However, if she dares to choose anyone other than us, that’s going to be a different story.’‘The celestials are helping Nikolai because he has something that confirmed Xanthea’s identity as Cadence’s daughter to them. They don’
Caelum Solvaris had only one son, a weak blood, who had disappeared ages ago. Officially, it was claimed that the boy was undergoing private spiritual training to become the next Alpha of the Solvaris pack, which was a common practice in the Celestial realm. So everyone believed it.But I was sure t
