Narrator
When the king of the underworld signaled the beginning of the games, the participants were ready, they all knew their lives depended on the outcome. Furthermore, the clan's name and reputation were at stake. The amount of power that could be accumulated was immense, and none of them wanted to miss out on that chance.
It was not the easiest of tests, in this battle, they would need to use their strength and intelligence together. To achieve their goal, in this first part, participants must escape the mythical creature that guards the gates of the underworld. A three-headed animal feared by all demons. Cerberus is the hellhound that no demon dares to confront.
They further claim that a bite will rip through the body and that the daredevil will lose their vi

A Fearsome Opponent part 2 Narrator The competitors were transported to the banks of the Acheron River. The place was sinister, and even demons would have been overwhelmed by the poisonous steam coming from the lake. A black substance coated the stones on the riverbank. A decomposing organic material that has been around for millennia. All the competitors looked at each other at the same time, asking what to do. No one knew exactly how to reach the sword. Sanloth took a step forward and, with a look of confidence and determination on her demonic face, raised her arms and began to cast the spell. Sanloth, who was one of the most powerful members of her clan, was capable of performing enchantments and unleashing hatred on her victims. The power of this c

A Fearsome Opponent Part 3 Narrator As the Demon of Ceremonies bowed before the king of the underworld, he began his task. “The Clan Deathlamb is the winner of the sword of Damocles.” The Deathlamb clan was chanting and casting incantations in triumph. Any demon who wasn't prepared could be killed in an instant. The demon of ceremonies continued “Sanloth of The Lothman clan, and Bettra of The clan Betraynaro have been disqualified. Their bodies will remain in the river Acheron forever.” There was total silence in the arena. Ending up in the lake of despair was one of the most feared deaths for demons. A few minutes later, the ceremonial demon announced the last test. They will fight to the death in the final round. This would be the third and last contest in the competition. The arena will be the place where th

A Fearsome Opponent part 4 Narrator Now it was time, she finally opened her eyes, allowing her vampire vision to fill her with every living thing around her, every particle, even the air itself. Unlimited power was available to her, but she still needed more. It was Poissona who caught her attention and saw how that insignificant demon was hiding, waiting to strike from the back at the right time. The poisoned heart of Poissona leapt, as she watched Drickblood disappear. Where did she go? She wondered fearfully. It did not take long to find out where she went. From behind her, she felt the vampire grabbing her head and, with a strong pull, exposing her neck. Poissona tried to escape from the clutches of the bloodsucker, but she was no match for Drickbl

The Dragon Demon Armaloth “Any news?” I asked Anton, who was kneeling alongside my wife's inert body. Drickblood is my queen now and since then, Moriah has slipped into a coma ever since I crowned her. No precedent in history tells me what happened or how to solve the problem. The answer is obvious to me, and I hope I'm wrong. Otherwise, Moriah will stay that way forever. Seeing me, Anton ducked his head until it touched the ground, then raised it again and answered me. “My lord and master, our lady has remained the same, there hasn't been any change.” The condition of my wife has not changed or worsened since Coronation took place a month ago. The woman remains inert as if she were sleeping, her breathing i

The Clans' Conspiracy Armaloth After hearing that, I gritted my teeth. I had no idea all the clans were conspiring against me. This keeps getting more and more bizarre. “In all this, what are you going to gain?” I asked him. As the dragon widened his eyes in disbelief, he responded, “Yo, are you kidding me? I confess that I was somewhat bored. Living for so long, and without anything to entertain me, is scary. I have wished for death many times before continuing this boredom.” Damned dragon, he was bored? “And also, I thought that if I made you come here, I could talk to you about some things that you obviously don't know. Oh, yes, also to give you back this pair of foolish demons.” Using his tail, he pointed to the ceiling of the cave and there were my two spies. They were da

The ritual Moriah Since I woke up, everything has been extremely confusing. I'm seeing images in my mind that I'm not sure whether I can believe, and this place is very frightening. The first time I saw the branches move by themselves, I was terrified. The worst part was when they approached me and curled around me. What I felt was inexplicable; it felt like I had lived it before, and it was a part of each day. Now that I see them from a distance, they don't seem as frightening as they looked from up close. I've watched them move and curl up for a long time. When I first tried to avoid them, they chased me wherever I went, and when I pushed them away with my hand, they stayed near me, waiting for something. In the end, I no longer bothered with them aw

The ritual part 2 Moriah I turned to look at the tree and then at Anton. Maybe it will work, I said to myself, then out loud, “Tree let him go.” Immediately, I turned to see if the branches had already freed him. And to my greatest surprise, they had. The branches little by little unhook from Anton's body, leaving him lying on the ground. Anton, with much effort, knelt and touched the ground with his forehead, “My lady, thank you, thank you.” After catching his breath for a while, he got up and said, “Mistress, please don't be scared of me, I will never hurt you, My Lord and Master will disintegrate me if I let something bad happen to you.” And I responded with the following: “Something happened to your face, or at least that's what I saw. Maybe I'm st

The ritual part 3MoriahThe sweat ran down my face. I don't know what triggered such a reaction in my body. I just wanted it to end. When I considered this, I felt like my limbs were being stretched to the maximum by the thorny branches that held me. “Arrr!”While fighting the force, I felt a presence that stunned me. A terrifying figure was walking towards me, my body froze, I was struggling to breathe, the thorns that held me moved vigorously around me, welcoming him.He stopped in front of me, I stared at him, I couldn't blink, he didn't look away either; he looked at me with such intensity that it was alarming. I had the sensation that the air wasn't getting into my lungs, I felt like I was drowning. My vision became blurred, and I kept seeing this morbid being stand

They have to learn Armaloth “No, Prince Badaloth. No, your father the king will ask for my head.” With great pride, I watch from my throne as my son Badaloth gives Anton a terrible day. My little boy is proving to be a full-fledged devil. He is barely a year and a half old and his powers are magnificent. My relics did well to choose their mother. Moriah, my wife. Remembering her name made me wonder what she was doing? She has been in the dragon dimension for over a week. And it's about time she returned to fulfil her obligations. I raise my hand closing my eyes. I started to generate a black cloud in front of me. A portal appeared in front of me, and I commanded my thorny branches through the portal. They crossed dimensions until they reached their goal. When I had it, I ordered them back. “AAAAA!” From the portal, Moriah’s screams were heard while she was dragged from the dragon dimension into my presence. I could hear her nearer. Seconds later, my wife's body was dragged over to me

The training Moriah “No Moriah, you're doing it all wrong. That's not how I told you to do it." Oh! Please. This is the fifth or sixth time I've tried it, and nothing seems to satisfy this grumpy old dragon. “We will do it again, and this time I want you to focus like never before. You need to free those thorny branches and stop them at the moment I tell you to. Did you hear me, Moria? This time you have to stop them. I have no more humans left to practice with.” I lowered my gaze and saw the five practice targets on the ground. What insignificant and pathetic beings. And only thinking that I was one of them once. I don't know how Armaloth could have noticed me. The god of the underworld and a human? Ridicu

The rise of the Queen Moriah Armaloth was sitting on his thorny throne. Watching me very carefully. I could feel even his emotions. He was as agitated, as I was. On the other side, was the dragon, fuming from its nose. With the same boring face as ever. That made me smile slightly. And next to him, there was a very beautiful woman. I could see that she was not human, nor demon. But I did feel her power. And it was huge, my skin crawled just looking at her. I also saw demons that I had never seen, and they were massive. This place was the concentration of evil. And I was in the middle of everyone. While I was looking around me. The circles on the floor, lit up one by one, up to the circle where I was. Afterwards, everything was silent. I turned to see my

PersephoneMoriahThis demon is called Anton, I remember him. In order not to scare me, he disguised himself as a human. "Anton," I called him by name, and he made a priceless face when he heard it. That makes me laugh so hard I can hardly stand up. The demon reached down and put his forehead on the floor, singing "My lady." I was waiting to see what he would do, but he remained in the same position. "Get up Anton. Do you know? I remember you, and I know that face is not yours. " Anton, surprised, obeyed me and nervously told me “My lady, I don't want to scare you with my true form. I know how sensitive you are, and from experience, I have to tell you that you wouldn't like to see it."Poor devil, I have to end his suffering. "I know, before, it was al

Its timeArmalothIn disbelief, she shook her head from side to side. However, she waits for me to say what I was thinking. "Moriah, as well as every other member of the royal family. You need to perform the ritual. A specific tattoo will be drawn on your skin. And for each member, it is different. We will then witness its manifestation when the darkness possesses you. Only in that way, you can receive the Persephone crown."As Moriah gazed at me in hesitation, I continued. "I won't say that you will not suffer, but you have already endured a lot of pain. Therefore, you have nothing to fear." The gravity of the situation made my eyes harden. "If the darkness doesn’t think you are good enough for me, the tattoo will not come to life, and you will die.”

The TattooArmalothI opened my eyes even with fatigue, the whole night we spent enjoying each other. Trying to make up for the time we lost. There was a moment when I thought I would never stop. Moriah had awakened in me that all-consuming hunger.And it is something that only she could quench. I lowered my gaze and saw my wife, who was sleeping peacefully in my arms.It has been so long since I felt her body next to mine. I longed for the moment her skin touched mine. Have her by my side, in my bed. My wife had finally returned home. And I couldn't be more alert to her presence. I could smell her, feel her. Just by closing my eyes, I knew what she was doing. She has consumed all my thoughts.This time apar

I want to see the punishmentMoriahI have to be able to stand on my two feet. It’s up to me now, what kind of life I'll have here.My body slammed against his chest. And I felt myself crash against a concrete wall. Air escaped from my lungs on impact. After a few seconds trying to inhale oxygen. Armaloth took a fist of my hair and pulled my head back painfully.This made me face him, and my eyes collided with his. Everything was repeating itself again, and he would never stop abusing me. The fear that had taken hold of me before began to wane as my father's words were repeated over and over again. "My daughter is very smart, my daughter is very smart, my daughter is very

Back in his armsMoriahI can't move, I feel like my feet are anchored to the floor. My muscles are not responding to me. My brain, as well as my surroundings, is frozen. I knew this could happen at any time. But, I thought I was strong enough to accept my fate.Now I see that it’s not the case. I'm cowering, and I can feel the panic start to take over my mind. I also know that I can't do anything. But I'm not ready to go back to that place. So I tried to move my body, I had to face him.I will tell him what I think. So I turned my body in his direction so slowly, I thought I would never make it. And the image that greeted me when I saw him made my stomach turn. I had already forgotten how terrifying and repulsive this being is. A

Rest in peace, Phillip ReginaMoriahSeveral more years passed. My businesses were already controlled by the association with which I made the agreement. Most of my time was spent with my father at home. His condition was deteriorating. He spent more time sleeping than awake. It was my duty to be with him. In the same way that he was always with me.To see him in such a state pains me so much. My father, my rock. The only person I had in this life. He was leaving me. However, I knew it was inevitable. We did not know how long he was going to live. But whatever it was, I would spend it by his side.I couldn't let a minute waste away from him. I was going to make the most of every moment we had together. So I moved to his room, I was his head nurse. A d
