Chapter 3: Encountering The Devil

“Have you met her, honorable master? I see you are much weaker than before. Your power is being suppressed by her.”

A man whose face was burned black took half a step forward and spoke softly. He raised his hand to greet the person standing in front of him, the other person still kept a quiet attitude, it was not until the name with the black face spoke that he turned around.

“It is true that you did have feelings for her. In the beginning it was just a contract, she had to give her blood and heart to him; but he softened and kept her. If you become weak, those demons will definitely kill you!”

"Shut up, Python! Since when will my health be your turn to concern?" The other began to speak in a somewhat hoarse voice, “She is my wife, and the only person this Leo Valdez wants to protect. If anyone wants to harm her, then step over the corpse of this great demon king.”

“You need to absorb more from the hatred of humans. In the past, it was not you who triggered the attack of humans, causing them to kill each other. At that time, I remember you only had to stand on top to enjoy the resources of hatred. You've changed, Leo." The voice came from outside the door. It was a woman with a tall and thin build, she didn't look very beautiful but her words made others attractive, “That girl is the fatal point of you and the greedy person. That lam also knows. He knew she was your weakness, so he caused the avalanche that time, the main purpose of which was to cause you pain. Leo Valdez, who is weak because there is no hatred in his heart. As a demon king, you should know your responsibilities.”

“You're late, Phantom. I thought you'd never come again." Leo laughed, he sat down on his throne, “I put her in danger. I did love her, but then what? I have also decided to leave, giving her back her freedom. Phantom, don't think that if you love each other, you have to have sex. Luna is the only girl who can overcome the powers of all of us here.”

The person named Phantom is a great demon king that symbolizes human lust. Phantom's image is not that of a pretty girl, but of a person of mediocre beauty; However, Phantom's charm is to make all men want to have sex with her.

“I caught a Doctor Brown struggling to get out of the demon king's solitary confinement. Again saw a demon king in the form of Dr. Brown working at the hospital, where Luna Edwards is being treated. Is it a coincidence? Leo, you need to turn around before it's too late. He is trying to take over the world and you are his biggest obstacle. He would kill Luna sooner or later; She's human, she'll be reincarnated sooner or later. However you are a great demon king; If you're dead, how can you reincarnate? Will he easily let your demon essence exist?”

“So this time, I will definitely protect her. I won't let anything happen to Luna!"

Leo used his hand to extinguish all the candles in the room, making the room extremely dark. Phantom smiled helplessly, she knew Leo did it to get out of here, he didn't want the rest of the demon lords to know about the existence of Luna Edwards, the person he loved the most.

“Truly stubborn!” Phantom waved her hand, and she also disappeared in the black smoke, leaving a dark room with the bewildered Python subordinate.

"Luna, how's your health these days?"

Luna was transferred to a regular ward after more than two months in the ICU, all of her functions restored. Luna was eating and talking normally, but she still couldn't remember the past, something seemed to be stuck in her, making her feel uncomfortable. However, Luna tries very hard, in addition to the time of physical therapy to quickly return to normal life, Luna also spends time to meditate, this therapy helps her mind to be much more peaceful. much.

Professor Allen often comes to check on her, in addition, her brother, Will Miller still regularly visits. Will works as a doctor at this hospital, so every time he leaves his shift, he comes to take care of his sister.

"Dr. Brown says all my vitals are fine, I'm probably going to get better soon." Luna smiled, perhaps the brightest smile after three months of bedridden. Luna is a girl with a positive energy, she never gives in to adversity and this has made Professor Allen admire.

“Good then. If there is nothing to worry about, I can be discharged from the hospital next month. A lot of physical therapy practice is good, but most of her organs are removed and replaced, so their function is not as good as before. I have to take care of my health a lot.” Professor Allen advised.

Luna smiled, she knew that Professor Allen was always worried about her health. Especially since Luna had just escaped death. The two could talk a few sentences, but Professor Allen had to leave because there was an emergency. Luna sighed, looked outside, she saw that it was about to spring, the flowers were also starting to bloom, but she couldn't enjoy it.

“We meet again, Luna Edwards. You know what I expect from you? Her heart can give the demon king great power but Luna, the day he came to her with a contract, he never thought he would love her and when he loved her, he couldn't bring her back. safe for her. Luna, only I can bring you absolute safety…”

A huge tornado, Luna found herself standing on top of a tall building. In the sky, dark clouds covered everywhere, Luna was scared, she didn't know where she was standing, she involuntarily backed away.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here! I'll protect you."

A warm voice rang out, Luna didn't know who this person was, but she felt a familiar warmth. She let herself fit inside that person's body, receiving his protection.

“Luna…Luna…”

Luna woke up, her whole body covered in sweat. It turned out that this was just a dream, so who was the man in that dream? Luna looked ahead, when a warm hand grabbed her body, lifted her up and handed her a glass of water.

"Did you have nightmares again?" Dr. Brown smiled softly, his hand lightly touching her forehead to see if she had a fever.

“I saw that dream again. No! Not the same dream, but the same person. Who is that person after all? Is it the person in your forgotten memory?” Luna nodded, taking the cup of warm water that Dr. Brown had given her.

“If it was someone you know, shouldn't they have come to see you? You’re the one who lost my memories, not the one in the dream. Because you’re too dreamy." Dr. Brown laughed, flicking Luna's head with his hand.

“So you take me downstairs for a walk, I see outside the window, the flowers are already blooming, the air is still cold but spring is coming. I want to enjoy this atmosphere.”

Dr. Brown laughed, he nodded in agreement. Anyway, since Luna's health is more stable than before, there's no need to worry too much. It was seven o'clock in the evening, Brown used a wheelchair to push Luna through the hospital corridor, everything was very peaceful.

The scene in the hospital campus was so peaceful, Brown opened a milk carton and placed it on Luna's hand. She gladly took it and drank, it seemed she had long taken for granted Dr. Brown's concern for her. Three months ago, when she couldn't even move on her own, Dr. Brown had tenderly cared for her, he was so worried about her that it made Luna feel that having a boyfriend like Dr. so lucky

“Dr. Brown, it's good to see you here! There is patient 307 under your charge with pleural effusion, please come and see it quickly."

A nurse ran up in a hurry, and Luna and Brown both looked up in the direction of the voice. Dr. Brown looked over at Luna, knowing that if he left, Luna would be left alone.

“Go away, the patient is in critical condition! I'm fine, I'll stay here for a while and then ask someone else to upload it. The Doctor Brown you know is a man who knows how to save lives, isn't he?"

Dr. Brown smiled, he felt that Luna's statement was both reasonable and absurd. Without thinking much, Brown quickly ran after the nurse who called him.

Luna alone watched the spring scenery, she felt peace in her heart. Everything here seems to be quiet and gives people a warm feeling. There's something familiar about Luna, this scene, this spring, and this weather too. Every moment seemed to settle in her, little by little.

“Luna right? I am the nurse who was asked by Dr. Brown to take you to your room, the emergency is quite serious so Dr. Brown can't come here."

As the nurse from earlier, Luna smiled and greeted the nurse. The nurse pushed the wheelchair and took Luna to her room. It was getting darker and darker, but the way back to the room was getting more and more unfamiliar, Luna felt something strange, she asked softly: "Did Dr. Brown save the patient's life?"

“Of course it is, Dr. Brown saved that patient's life, you can rest assured. He is a good man.”

The nurse spoke in a somewhat high-pitched voice that gave Luna a chill. Luna shivered slightly, she began to feel that the way to the hospital room had changed a bit, it wasn't that far, but she still couldn't reach her room.

“Dr. Brown, three months ago transferred to neurosurgery. Since when did he become an emergency doctor?" Luna asked, her hand gripping the handle of the wheelchair. “Who are you?”

“Is that right? You can realize that. Only smart girls could attract someone as powerful as Dr. Brown. Hello again, Luna Edwards."

***

Back in time half an hour ago, Dr. Brown followed the nurse running towards the ward, so the patient needed an emergency. He felt that something was strange, his patients would not normally have a case of pleural effusion, especially since recently he also did not handle severe cases involving the brain.

"Aren't you going, Dr. Brown?" The nurse noticed that Dr. Brown had stopped, and asked quickly.

"All right!… Lure me out for what?" Dr. Brown with an ice-cold face looked at the nurse. “Don't think I can't spot your cat-and-mouse game.”

“Dr. Brown, you are my favorite person. If yes, can you be my husband?" The nurse spoke in a low voice, and her whole body heard the sound of bones breaking. The blouse has never been stained with blood, the nurse now looks like a person who has just been in a traffic accident, her whole body is broken and the maggots are looking very scary, “I tragic death, Dr. Brown. The man who had an affair left me and ran after another woman. He even stabbed me to death and pretended the scene was an accident.”

“What does that have to do with me? Go and meet the man who caused your death.” Dr. Brown said calmly.

“I want you to be my husband, you have vitality, can make me stronger. Dr. Brown, I've loved you for a long time too, but you don't care about me, now I'm dead, but my heart still only thinks of you."

"Mad!" Dr. Brown turned to leave.

“She's the most important person to you, isn't she? I'll help you deal with her, as long as she's not there, you'll marry me, right?"

“You dare touch her, I will kill you immediately. If you're still awake enough, get out." Dr. Brown voiced threats.

The space around the electric lights suddenly flashed violently. Everything was colder than ever, the nurse flew up and smiled cheerfully at Dr. Brown's team. She quickly disappeared from his sight. Only then did Dr. Brown realize he was in a trap. If he couldn't break the barrier, he couldn't get out of the world created by this demon.

"It's a scene born of a demon's mind, damn it!"
