Dylan's POV: "Don't send Shithead to the valley he will only bring disaster to the innocent civilians and it's going to be chaotic!" I panicky said to the Demon King."That's the main objective, moron!" I felt a jolt of anger in his tone. He glared at me, and I see the hell of fire burning from his blazing red eyes. "When did you start caring about innocent lives? Don't tell me you're getting soft on them. It's unlikely of you to show compassion to others." His brows drew together and started to doubt me."I'm not, but what you're doing is a declaration of war on heaven," I carefully explain to him."We are at war the moment that the thing inside her awakened, we cannot just sit here and wait," he seriously said to me.He leans over to me and touches my head. I can feel a strong volt of electricity running through my spiritual vessel, giving me unimaginable power. My body is fully charged with a massive thunderbolt of lightning energy roaring in every inch of my being. This power is
Dylan’s POV:I was about to hit him back when I heard Aria's voice."Dylan, stop!"We both stop when we heard her call out my name. Both of us look at Aria's location."He is Dylan?" The guy confusedly asks her."You guys were talking about me?" I'm a bit excited and thrilled to know that she talked about me to somebody. "Is she really into me? I mean who can't resist this devilish charm?" I said to myself."It's not what you think," Aria immediately replied giving me a deadpan stare."Why are you all tied up?"I rush over to her bedside and unchained her hands and feet. The unknown man was about to stop me, but I pushed him away by waving my hand toward him using my dark force energy. He slammed and hit his back on the concrete wall leaving a massive crack in the wall.He stood up unharmed as if nothing happened and when he was about to fight back, Aria went in front of me making herself my human shield."Please, stop fighting," she begged us."You don't have to protect me, Missy, I
Dylan's POV:"I'm a demon?!" she hysterically said.She's been pacing back and forth for the past thirty minutes as she keeps on whining about her becoming a demon."We can't say that for sure," I calmly said. "Try to stay calm and we'll figure this out." I comfort her."How can I stay calm? It's not some simple illness that I can't just take medicine to cure or cancer that requires an operation to remove it. There is a demon inside me and we don't even have the slightest idea how did it get in here in the first place."She's right. Her case is not something we can take lightly. Who knows what kind of effect the demon inside will cause her? Not only does it give her super-strength and powers but also changes her physical appearance maybe soon her attitude as well. For now, she can control that thing inside her, but for how long?"Let's worry about that later, for now, we need to get out of here," I worriedly said to her. "When I used my powers to teleport us here, demons may already t
Dylan's POV:"Furball is that you?" I surprisingly said while looking at the huge lycanthrope in front of us."My name is Cerberus, you scumbag!" he clarifies to me while clenching his fist and gritting his teeth.To be honest, I know his name. I just had this hobby of giving names to low-life creatures like him."Is that a werewolf?" Her voice was thick with fear, and her body went cold with dread."Yep, that's a werewolf but he's acting more like a puppy. I told you not to be afraid, missy. I won't let anything bad happen to you." I winked at her and gave her a reassuring smile.I don't want Aria to worry, so I acted tough to show her that I am still in control of the situation. He may look big and ferocious, but his brain is the same size as a pea. His muscle must have gotten into his brain that he is all strength and at the same time, brain-dead. "No fucking way!" He is also surprised as I am judging from the shocked look on his face. His jaw almost fell from the ground and his e
Dylan's POV:He couldn't get his face straight and be serious for a few seconds. He once again starts laughing so hard with teary eyes and almost ran out of breath."Do you honestly think that you had a chance together? A sicko Djinn and a freak of nature together, what your children will be like, world's abomination?" he sarcastically said.Reality hits me hard with those words. What was I thinking? We are somehow destined to be cursed, and happiness is not part of our vocabulary. It's a luxury we can never have. I never expected that truth can hurt this much. I took a deep breath, release an audible sigh and look at Aria one last time before I turn my back and walk outside the cave. Cerberus followed soon after. I lead him far away from the cave so Aria and my hellhounds will have a chance to escape from there. I communicate with my hellhounds telepathically and gave them an instruction to flee the cave once the coast is clear.As soon as we reach the middle of the forest, all of h
Dylan's POV: "No!" I keep shaking my head and repeating that word over and over. I still can't believe that I am about to lose Aria. "Aria, please wake up!" I panicky said to her while sitting on the ground watching her lifeless body resting on my lap. I took a deep breath and let the air out slowly while tapping my fist against my lips lightly and thinking of what to do next until I think of a way that could save her life. It may be risky and I have no other choice but to do it. I can still sense the spirit inside her and feel the warmth of her body. Her soul is still intact and hasn't left her body yet, so I have to do it quickly before it's too late. I placed my hand on the back of her head, lift her slowly and then I lean my face closer to her face. Without having second thoughts, I shut my eyes close for a dramatic effect then press my lips over her lips giving her the most passionate kiss. It had taken a few seconds before I parted my lips from her lips and waited for a few l
Dylan’s POV: "We can't stay here. We need to move out and get going before it gets dark," I said to her. "The explosion would probably catch everyone's attention and now that they know where we are I bet they will all come to haunt us," I seriously warned her. I blew a whistle to summon my hellhounds then helped Aria to get on the back of one of them. I was supposed to ride on the other hellhounds but when I saw her weak condition, I decided to join and ride along with her. She was sitting in front of me and I let her back rest on my chest while we drove to Fugly's place. While we're on our way to Fugly, I have a sudden flash of memory of me being in the same situation traveling with someone whose identity is still unclear. I don't know why I'm having these flashbacks and every time I tried to recall them it always lead me to nothing. "Dylan, are you okay? You're spacing out
Dylan's POV:"A kiss?" He burst out laughing and almost peed in his pants. "You are one perverted Djinn!" he continues to make fun of me."Go ahead laugh all you want," I shyly said to him."Is that how you pursue girls by tricking them to make a wish?" he taunted me and started laughing again as if he has an unlimited supply of Nitrous oxide.I decided to come clean and tell Fugly everything. From the time the Demon King made a contract with me to the day I first met Aria and how we ended up here in his fortress hoping that he can help me in figuring out what is going on with my spiritual vessel and how in the world I am turning back into a human. It's not that I don't want it. I'm enjoying having my humanity back. I just don't think that it is the right time to be weak and unable to protect someone special.Everything happens so fast and I still can't believe t
Dylan's POV:The ray of light was beaming through the small window. I can feel the warmth of the sun and slowly open up my eyes. My body was sore and stiff when I tried to move. My head is heavy, and my vision is fuzzy trying to see where exactly am I."Dylan, you are finally awake."I heard a familiar voice and when my vision started to get clear, it is confirmed that it was no other than Freya who is standing in front of me and looking down at me."Where am I?" I asked her feeling confused and disoriented. "Where is everybody?" I force myself to stand and sat on the bed. "Where is Aria?"I look around me trying to find a familiar face. I realized that we were back in the fortress of Silent Willow forest."Dylan, you need to stay calm. You have sustained severe injuries in your body, and you need to get more rest," Freya tries to change the
Aria's POV:I regain consciousness and found myself lying on the marble pedestal in the middle of nowhere. I noticed that all of my clothes were gone, but I didn't feel cold. There's a lush warm sensation within me. There is no pain in my body and no wounds or scar. I feel light as a feather and no heavy feeling or burden is weighing on me. I never thought that I was going to experience this euphoric feeling and tranquillity in my life. There is a rainbow of emotions at my disposal and yet, why do I still feel empty?"Am I dead?"That's the first thing that comes to my head. I don't feel threatened or worried and sense no harm. I get up, sat down on the pedestal, and look around me to see my surroundings all I can see was a bright light of infinite nothingness."Where am I?" I whispered to myself.I walk around trying to figure out what is going
Dylan's POV:Death is inevitable. I heard those words from Aria when we first met and trick her into making her first wish. We will all die anyway. She said it without a flinch. Aria is not afraid to die at that very moment because she felt that she has no reason to live and it is easier to accept death. Knowing that there's nothing to leave behind. That was before we found love.Now we are all gathered here on this battlefield fighting for our lives because we wanted to live. Ironic isn't it? There are moments like this when I wanted to give up and give in. Surrender to the darkness because there's nowhere to go. I feel trapped and lost with no hopes left in me, but when I think of Aria. No matter how difficult the situation is, I just can't let go of the possibility that one day we can be together living a normal and peaceful life. That small chance, a glimpse of hope, and the possibility are giving me enough strength and
Dylan's POV:"Dylan, wake up!"The agonizing pain in my head awakened my sore body. The stench of a thousand burning corpses fumes all over the place. My lungs were congested with thick smoke from the fire giving me non-stop coughing and difficulty of breathing."Dylan, wake up!"I heard it again. Someone is calling my name. "Where am I?" I confusedly said to myself. "Am I dreaming?" Still confused about what is going on with my surroundings and me."Geez, he lost it. Try to shake him or something." I heard another voice talking to the one who is calling out my name.My vision was still hazy trying to figure out what had happened. I tried to get up and look around me, then I saw Emann rubbing a piece of cloth on my forehead."Your head is bleeding try not to move too much," she softly said to me wh
Dylan's POV:This is it. The beginning of the end and the war will lead to the downfall of the Kingdom of Hell. I should feel excited that finally, it would be over, but I can't deny that my feelings are somehow divided. I am afraid and feared for the safety of Aria and the rest of the squad who will fight against the most powerful demon.There is thunder roaring like a beast outside the fortress. We are all startled upon hearing the eerie sound and decided to take a peak from the small opening of the fortress to see what is going on outside.We saw a huge thick red cloud from where the thunder came from, heading to our location. Unlike the dark cloud already covering the entire third stage of hell, this one brings acid rain, which is as red as human blood, and very destructive lighting that annihilates everything it touches. The cloud and storm are just a diversion. We are pretty sure that demon soldier
Dylan's POV:A great philosopher once said that if you want to succeed in life then your desire for success must be greater than anything else. There is no room for failure. I may be turning back into a human being, but I am still a demon and I will do anything in my power to get Aria's wing no matter the odds. Even if it means I have to return to my old ruthless self again.I let Aria, and the others go outside the cave for I don't want her to see the monster in me. I love her and I am afraid that she will resent me if she witnesses my true nature.It took me almost an hour before I finally reached the exit of the cave and everybody is waiting patiently for me to come out of the cave.As expected, there are all busy fighting the orcs. They are doing their best to hold their ground while I was busy negotiating with the Queen of the Damned."What took you so long?
Dylan's POV:"Yes," Aria's quick response to my proposal. "Yes, I will marry you, Dylan Lockey!" she repeats her answer will all sincerity and a rainbow of emotions at her disposal.Everyone releases an audible sigh and forcibly claps their hands to show support for our engagement. They don't want to ruin the moment, so nobody said anything to contradict the happy scene.I stood up and inserted the ring on the fourth finger of Aria's left hand and just now realized that it was no ordinary ring. The size is adjusted to the finger of the owner of the ring and the color of the gemstone changes depending on Aria's mood. Aria looks very impressed with her ring. I can see the wide smile on her face and the sparkling look in her eyes."Do you like it?" I asked her even though I already knew the answer, it is still good to hear her say those words."I love it," she quick
Dylan’s POV:We are busy testing the powers of the silver fox when a group of angel soldiers arrived on the scene. One of them is dressed differently from the rest of the military troops and from what I can tell, he possesses the highest rank in the military.His armor is gold-plated, unlike the others who wore silver armor. He carries badges that are pinned on his armor which stated his achievements from the previous wars. He wore a crimson red robe that I think serves no purpose but he did look so damn cool with it as if he is really in authority and has the power to control the situation.His wings are equipped with titanium blades with magical spells on them. The spell appears to be a demon-cleansing spell similar to the spell that was engraved on all of their weapons. Weak types of demons are vulnerable to this kind of weapon. They don't have enough power to deflect the effect of the spells. H
Dylan's POV:Despite our best effort to control the situation in the Southern Hemisphere, the demons are getting closer to the barrier, and more human lives are becoming casualties of war. Night and day the phoenix couple has stayed up on guard to ensure that nobody else gets hurt.Over the years, demons have learned how to disguise themselves, walk and live amongst humans. They have increased in number and are smarter than ever. Like me, they have learned how to hide their powers so that demons and angels cannot detect them. Hiro, Emann, and I were in charge of evacuating the humans and taking them to a safe place. We find it hard to identify the demons and the humans for they all look the same."Hiro, check everyone before you take them to the safe house. We can't afford to let a demon in the headquarters," I reminded him."I can't detect which one is the demon and which one is hum
