The castle which was usually quiet, and seemed uninhabited was now a little crowded with servants and Bunny passing by preparing the necessities for their master's wedding. The main room has been transformed in such a way that it looks festive and does not seem gloomy.

Meanwhile, at the altar, where Felen performs the first ritual, it is left as it should be so that the sacredness of the bridal ritual is not reduced. Just a little touch of red candle with a sweet aroma that will hypnotize the bride and groom.

All of that is the result of the cooperation of all beings who work under Leon's rule, including Adrien who is the leader of the creatures with these lower castes. The old servant looked very enthusiastic when giving directions. Even though his face had an even expression, the twinkle in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

While the owner of the show, Leon, chose to lock himself up with Felen who was fast asleep by his strength. Waiting for the awaited time to wel

    The black vortex sucked up Felen's body mercilessly. The girl's breath began to get heavy with panic. Just as Felen was about to open her eyes to see what was really going on, Leon's voice as well as a squeeze in her hand stopped the girl."Don't open your eyes until I ask you to." Leon reiterated.Felen felt that what he experienced felt very long as well as a moment. It was too strange for Felen to describe, but when felt directly, those who experienced it would understand the meaning of his words.After a while, Felen's feet felt like stepping on something solid. He even called Leon to make sure. "Leon ..."Before Felen could finish his sentence, Leon interrupted first. "You can open your eyes, Milady."Felen slowly opened her eyelids timidly, peeked a little, but all she got was pure white."Open your eyes, Milady. There's nothing terrible here . . . I guess." Leon's voice was heard again asking Felen to open his eyes.

    The party had just begun.All the creatures in Leon's castle cheered with joy when they learned that their master's bridal ritual had been completed, and an empress had been chosen. So it's time for them to party.They were given the opportunity to devour all the food and drinks that had been served with joy. Including Adrien, the old servant and Alair, the leader of the Interessengruppen, who participated in the party, even though they just stood quietly in the corner of the room. Observing with their characteristic flat faces. Do not participate in the madness of other demons.The creatures were partying not because they really felt happy for Leon's achievements, but because they just wanted to party and unwind with alcoholic drinks that were hard to get for low castes like them. Only some of them really cared about the rituals of the bride and the empress. The rest only think about their own pleasure.The later the night picks up, the busier the situat

    Meanwhile in the human world, right after Abelard returned from the Devil Reign, bad news greeted him. Edith, his mother, died. Moreover, Edith had been buried two days ago."What does this mean?! Didn't we only go out for a day? How come a week has passed here?" Abelard demanded of Satan who was standing by the window with his arms crossed. His face was flushed with veins that were clearly printed on his neck, a sign that his anger had peaked. He felt cheated."Ah, I haven't told you that one day in the demon world is the same as one week in the human world?" Satan replied casually. Doesn't seem guilty at all."You! You should have told me something important like that earlier!" Abelard punched the large glass in the room to crack while glaring at Satan. Blood oozed from his knuckle hit by the broken glass. He needed something to vent his anger, and the glass was the victim."You didn't ask, Abelard." A scornful grin graced Satan's lips.Abelard w

    Then, the girl's choice fell on the second door from the right. Mammon's door, The Avatar of Greed.When Felen entered the door, a golden glow dominated the eyes. There are many items made of pure gold. Starting from antiques, jewelry, and other objects such as trophies, glasses, jars, coins and so on. Even the floor that Felen was stepping on right now was also made of pure gold before being covered in a luxurious red carpet.There are also diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and emeralds among the piles of treasure that mount up like the hill. It was like a treasure room.Felen couldn't contain his admiration. He blinked a few times, then returned to admiring the room. However, the expression on his face turned strange with a frown on his forehead when he thought more deeply about the room.Especially after seeing a very large face statue placed above the fountain. For Felen it was very ... ridiculous."It seems that the prince of darkness we are meetin

    Felen woke up gasping for air. His eyes stared wildly around, then stopped at Leon who was sitting leisurely on the sofa in the middle of the room. Slowly his breathing began to stabilize after seeing the presence of the man near him."Nightmare?" asked Leon, still not looking at Felen. He seemed busy looking at the necklace in his hand." ... Yes, a little." Felen massaged his temples and the bridge of his nose which was throbbing in pain. "How long have I been unconscious for?" asked the girl with a low grin. The pain in his head was getting worse and made Felen uncomfortable.The last thing the girl remembered was her holding the dagger full of blood, and the blood gushing from Mammon's body that took on the form of Barend. Felen managed to kill Barend in the illusion that the demon created. He stared at his now clean palms."Not long." Leon walked over to Felen, and sat on the side of the girl's bed. "Probably about an hour or two," he replied as he l

    Felen is currently in front of the similar black door from before, still with a dazed face after exiting Belphegor's room. She even chose to sit for a moment in the chair Leon provided while hugging the blanket that Belphegor had given her. Her brain was still processing what had just happened."I don't understand," Felen mumbled quietly."What is it, Milady?" Leon who had just came out of the door of Belphegor chimed in. He took the chair in front of her.They did not go straight to the remaining doors, but chose to relax while enjoying Darjeeling Tea. The white room with rows of black doors was so quiet that she could hear her breathing very clearly."He let me go," she said referring to Belphegor."He did that so you could get out of his room quickly, and he could continue sleeping, undisturbed." Leon handed over the black pouch where Felen kept the aphrodisiac and necklace, ordering her to keep the blanket Belphegor gave her in it instead of hugging the blanket with her arms and m

    "That was . . . amazing, Milady. Honestly, I was so proud of you." Leon, who had been silent for a long time, opened his voice and immediately praised Felen's actions earlier. He followed her from behind so he didn't see her distorted face.Even so, Leon realized that Felen was in a foul mood. Especially after the girl's old wounds were forcibly opened again. Because of that, when Felen didn't reply to his words and still continued to walk forward at a faster pace, he didn't talk to her anymore.They finally exited Leviathan's room and returned to the starting door of the Third Dimension. However, unlike before where Felen chose to sit on the chair Leon provided, instead she stood facing the black doors that had not been entered with her hands on her waist. "Let's just go straight in. I want to finish this quickly, then rest." She had already worned out."Alright. That's up to you, Milady. Besides, I'm just following along and accompanying you, but are you sure?" Leon noticed Felen's

    "What does all this mean? What's your reason for making my mother a victim?" Abelard was facing Barend in his study room after waiting for his father for kore tto come home from the town next door for over a week. He tried to keep his voice from going up a few octaves, though an annoyed snarl escaped his lips several times."It's your fault, Abelard. I've order you to find women who will be sacrificed, but you just disappeared somewhere," replied Barend spilling the blame on Abelard. He was still sitting quietly while smoking a cigar. There was no trace of guilt on his face after killing his two wives."Too bad the ritual still failed." Barend sighed with a gloomy face.In his place, Abelard was holding back his wrath. His hands were clenched into fists and his jaw tightened. Even though he tried to hide his hatred, the way Abelard looked at Barend showed how much hatred he had for him.Abelard wanted to kill Barend right away. However, he held back because he was still a nobody in th

    "What is a being like you doing in the sanctuary of the sleeping souls?" A short boy with blond hair greeted Leon at the entrance to the Spirit Realm. Even though the child was small in stature, an aura of dexterity emanated from him, as if to emphasize to anyone who came that he was not a being to be underestimated. "Tell me your goal!" said the boy proudly. Leon sighed lazily. He was quite annoyed with the arrogant attitude of the half-hearted creature. But he refrained from destroying the place, it was all for the sake of regaining half of Felen's soul that was confined in the Spirit Realm.If Leon made such a fuss there, it was certain that he would not be able to enter and his plan to obtain Felen's soul failed. "I came to retrieve the soul of someone who was accidentally sent here," Leon answered straightforwardly. The boy's eyes narrowed sharply. He scanned Leon from top to bottom. There was nothing unusual about the man's appearance, silver hair that was almost white with

    Barend, who was watching the ceiling, turned to look at Felen and Abelard, and for the first time in his life he gave his two children a genuine smile. “Thank you… I can finally reunite with the Aghnya.”Silence took over. Only Barend's low moans and gasps could be heard. After a few minutes had passed, Barend's body was no longer breathing. The man left with a peaceful smile on his lips.'Easy as that?' Felen's heart screamed pitifully. Between happy and sad, he couldn't decide. He laughed blankly. The dagger in hand fell to the floor, making a loud sound that jolted Abelard out of his reverie.Abelard reflexively held Felen's body which was almost falling to the floor, shaking uncontrollably making him worry about the girl's psychological state. "Felenia?" he called carefully after sitting Felen on the chair."You know, Abelard? I prepared all of this for a long time . . . tediously, with quite a long preparation, but lo ... humans are indeed fragile. They, we, can die easily." Fele

    Felen pointed the dagger at Barend's neck. The moment she stepped forward, the man's neck would be torn apart. "Enough. Stop your bullshit!" She shouted loudly. Tears that had gathered in the corners of her eyes had melted down her cheeks.Barend's chatter suddenly stopped.The more Felen let Barend speak, the more the man said things that made her sick. "What Abelard said turned out to be wrong." Her voice trembled slightly, but was full of firmness."You only care about yourself." Felen rose from the chair, still with the dagger pointed less than five centimeters at Barend's neck. She slowly moved around the table to make it easier for her to attack Barend if the man was being anarchic. She could immediately plunge the dagger if that happened.Barend's earlier words saying that she was a cheap woman made Felen furious. It was true that the man had apologized, but the apology sounded insincere and felt empty, and was accompanied by ridicule and put all the blame on Aghnya. Barend was

    When Felen opened her eyes, she was already standing in the courtyard of the Leister family's manor. The building looked majestic, but was filled with emptiness like an uninhabited building. Not a single servant and maid was seen passing by. The aura emanating from the building also seemed very gloomy and dark."What is this?" Leon spoke first. His forehead was furrowed deep and his eyes narrowed sharply.Not only did Felen feel the strangeness in the manor, but Leon also realized that something had happened there. The black energy colliding there looked extremely chaotic and strange as if it was done on purpose. Moreover, he felt the energy of his brothers, the princes of darkness.Leon took a few steps forward with his arms outstretched forward. When his hand touched the empty air, suddenly static electricity appeared and hurt his hand until it was blistered. It was as if an invisible shield was refusing his presence to go deeper into the manor."Leon! Your hand ..." Felen exclaimed

    The plan for lunch with Abelard was canceled, and Felen was invited to join him for breakfast instead. Only the two of them were in the dining room. Leon chose to stay in the room with Gruga with the excuse of wanting to give Felen, and Abelard a room to talk freely together.Felen had done her breakfast and was currently drinking tea with Abelard. The atmosphere in the dining room is quiet. Only Felen and Abelard's soft exhalations were the only sounds. The maids had long gone to make room for them, but since then Abelard had not made a conversation yet, her anxiety getting stronger. She glanced at Abelard several times, then at the clock which was oddly not ticking. It was as if time had stopped in that room."What do you want to say, Abelard?" Abelard didn't appear to intend to immediately explain what he said at that time, until Felen took the initiative on her own. Her voice trembled slightly. Not because she was nervous, but because her instinctive anxiety indicated that what A

    Felen threw himself on the bed. Even though she wasn't doing strenuous activity that drained her energy, she felt like she was running out of energy after talking with Abelard. Abelard said that he wanted to talk again after lunch. A deep sigh escaped from her lips.She was in the villa belonging to the Leister family. At first she refused to stay here, and wanted to go straight to Barend after she had known how rotten his father was. However, at Abelard's suggestion and Leon's orders, she postponed it.Felen's eyes, which had been closed, slowly opened. She glanced at Leon who didn't move an inch as he stared out of the window. Drops of water that fell from the sky slowly began to wet the earth. It constant voice gave comfort to the room engulfed in silence."It's strange to see you being so quiet all this time." She broke the silence between them after seeing he had no intention to speak the slightest bit.He turned to Felen who was staring at her with her forehead furrowed in suspi

    The long awaited day had finally came. Felen's fingers squeezed together nervously. She had a mixed feelings as she took a deep breath to calm her heartbeat and nervousness."Are you ready?" Leon had stayed beside Felen, waiting for her to get ready.They were in the Forest of Wonders, right in front of The World Tree which was one of the entrances to the human world. Leon actually suggested Felen to just use his teleportation instead of going through The World Three. However, at the request of hid bride who wanted to go to the labyrinth first, they ended up passing through The World Tree."Let's go." She grabbed her hand that was stretching towards her. Then, they passed through a black portal that appeared in the center of The World Tree. The portal looked awful, but once she entered it, there was nothing different or special about the place other than the predominant black color.There was a hidden fear inside her. She kept imagining that the black portal would suck her in and loc

    In one corner of Devil Reign, there was a special area reserved for angels from Celestial Realm who attended the Academy of (Ashmedai). One of the residents was Louisa who was currently communicating with Archangel Michael. She provided detailed reports on what has happened around Felen."So you're saying that she turned down the offer to get rid of Lucifer, preferring to take the thorny path?" The voice sounded gentle, soft, and soothing."Yeah, I guess it's pointless persuading her again. It's better if we eliminate her so she doesn't fall further into darkness." Louisa's face turned gloomy and sad. All of that is not a pretense. He was really very sad because he failed to persuade Felen to leave Leon.The figure in front of her looked just as sad as her. "Then I'll leave it all to you. I'm sure you know what's best for your first friend, right?" he answered understandingly, accompanied by a shady smile that made her eyes welled with tears."Very well, Archangel Michael." She wiped

    Although Leon had ordered Felen to sleep and rest, she couldn't sleep in the least bit. She stayed awake all night without even closing her eyes once. As a result, grayish black shadows were formed under her eyes. Her face looks wistful with tired lines. She sighed tiredly. This was the third time this morning she had been sighing. A proverb says that happiness will disappear if she continued to sigh. However, for her happiness had long gone from her life so no matter how many times she sighed it wasn't a big deal."Miss, would you like some more?" asked one of the bunnies seeing that her cup was empty."Yes, please." Felen replied briefly with a faint smile. She was waiting for Leon's arrival to talk about Barend like he had said last night. She didn't know where the demon went so early in the morning. He had disappeared from her room while she was bathing and getting dressed.She took a sip of her tea, and a domineering and slightly sweet and bitter aroma mixed in her mouth. A tas
