It was something very embarrassing to see, but I would feel much better about being pampered like that than being leaning against a wall, with leaves of climbing plants rubbing against my back. The lack of music only increased the embarrassment. A party without music, with a lot of food and drinks, but with apathetic and distracted people. I missed the agitation in Octavius' territory.My chest tightened a little when I thought of him. In the way we had said goodbye, "which was without any farewell. I don't think I should have excluded him from all my plans. I would have felt terrible if it was used the way I used it over the centuries, filling it with empty promises, because somehow I already knew how it all ended.Vraxlon and I looked at each other and looked away. For the first time I didn't know very well how to start a conversation. And my palms were sweating as if I were in an oven. It must not have been more than a few seconds, even so, it seemed like a silence that there would
That way, there we were at the top of that cliff. The three fallen angels protected by my own magic, which contoured their shadows with a subtle smoke of magenta tone, and I, who found myself panting and tired for the few minutes I tried to keep his powers below mine.The feeling was like trying to hold hot irons. It was as if my two hands were holding the powers of the three at the same time, and it hurt, no matter how much my skin remained intact and smooth on the outside. Inside, my blood ran fast in my veins, and my heart intended to stop at any beat. I didn't have much idea how complicated that would be, until I really tried.And I knew I should have made these attempts much earlier. I should have prepared myself better. But I wanted to count on the element of surprise. I wanted to surprise my enemy by taking possession of my two books and destroying them before I found it. And I still had to go to purgatory. I didn't have time to waste with cautious actions and attempts.So I st
Vraxlon observed when Tennebris and Faye began to dance a song that she herself sang in an ethereal and rhythmic voice, with the rain surrounding them and finding it funny the sudden approach of those who hated each other so much."None of us chose to be stuck there," Vraxlon contested. "But we chose to follow a leader who did not settle for injustice and betrayal. We always knew that Lucifer was never the bad guy, and that's why we paid with exile, for believing in him.”"I swear I would understand the others who are possessing humans... If they were doing it because of it "I indicated Faye and Tennebris, laughing with each other. Laughing like children, like humans, like people who have nothing and are happy to have the least. "For wanting to feel everything that was taken from them. Knowing that they would never be able to step on the human world in its demonic form. I would understand if it were to feel the rain, the change in temperature, or simply to observe the world with diffe
Faye and Tennebris looked at each other, but Vraxlon took the lead, knowing that it was his cue to enchant a human with hormones on her skin. Realizing that he didn't even need powers to seduce, I didn't know if it irritated or comforted me."We are from the north," he replied, and the woman nodded, seeming to melt when she received a smile from him. "Elena's long-distance friends, on the part of the paternal family.”The woman gave me a look of suspicion."I thought you were an orphan.”"I am "I replied with a yellow smile. “But I recently took a trip to strengthen the lost ties with the family.”"You don't look like relatives," she replied, seriously studying Faye and Tennebris.Apparently, Tennebris' lack of patience and bad mood had enough time to get even stronger in those few seconds that the human world ceased to be a novelty and became as boring as hell. He snorted audibly, and approached one step."And you don't look like a person who is paid to an investigator, so spare us s
"Dear God, I don't know if you have been warned, but your name is in several quotes in this book. We, the crazy humans, write, and all the people you made in your image continue to believe that this garbage is real "he recited in a melancholic and soft tone, looking down, focused on the fingers that played the guitar. "Well, I know that nothing in the holy book is true, and so are you, dear God. So, I must say, I don't believe in you, God.”Vraxlon watched the singer carefully. He heard the lyrics while the melody played by the guitar sounded aggressively, contrasting the softness in the man's voice. It was a song made of contradictions, an open letter addressed to God, even if man said several times in his verses that he did not believe that God could hear him."Nowaday the more blasphemy, the more they think they will gain easy fame," grumbled a woman as she passed by us, holding the bag firmly under her arm. "You're not going to get anywhere like that, young man.”The singer did no
I think the desire must have come from some complicated memory of not having a lot of money to spend left and right, and that at that moment I tried to suppress immediately with all the dollars that were in my bag. Or maybe it was because I had the sin of greed so rooted in my soul. At least Faye would have more clothing options now."It's impossible," Tennebris grunted, entering the kitchen of supetão. He threw the map on top of one of Vraxlon's piles of tidy clothes and threw the compass on the floor. "I can't track my demons without magic. That's impossible. They've probably already owned humans. I can't do anything to get to them.”"Perhaps you can loosen the reins around our powers a little..." Faye suggested watching me.Although I was feeling a little better than in the early moments when I started to use my powers to keep theirs hidden, I still felt the pressure on my shoulders and a cerebral slowness. I was still being consumed by the force that tried to get out of them, but,
"He couldn't contain himself," I murmured, disguising the discomfort so that no one could look at us more than once. Most people were much more worried about the delay in the progress of the queue to notice us. "Besides, I prefer to know that the only negative influence of all customers inside will be nothing more than feeling very hungry.”Honestly, I knew that the reason for my nervousness was not a whole for fear of how I would have to deal with a human possessed by a demon. The biggest part of all that anxiety was for not knowing very well what it would be like to leave Faye trapped in a closed place with humans. I didn't know how their sin could torment them, even if it was a minimal spark of their power that I let escape the reins that I held so firm and sealed to my own power. The chance of that ending mäl was huge.But the first part of the plan was successfully completed, as we paid the entrance to the nightclub and had our arms surrounded by a very fragile and tight paper br
"Who has the book? "I screwed up, with no time to beat around the bush.The man didn't even blink."His name is Ciasbe, fallen angel of the kingdom of envy. He performs services in the woods with nomadic humans. I found this body there, at the stake. They meet every full moon Friday.. And then they read the book, and a portal is opened in our world. It is through this portal that we cross, but many of us are really caught by the archangels. Only the smartest can find their way to the woods and possess humans.”A very bad sensation caused the words to dry in my mouth. I turned to Vraxlon, watching with him he was wielding his sword, waiting for the moment to attack."Today is a Friday," I warned, arching an eyebrow."And full moon" completed Faye, raising her eyes to the sky. "They may be using the book right now.”"So let's end it," Tennebris said without a shred of emotion in his voice.I watched the man turn his eyes towards me, begging without making sounds. As much as I had agreed
