Horns as pristine as the halos. Wings as dominant as the dragons that held dominion over the ethereal creatures of the three realms. Flaming green eyes that resonated with the trail of infernal flames on its wake which reminded the onlookers of a raw emerald gem. Aura that could make even an angel bends.
Indeed, the person flying at the very apex of a brawl between two dragons was undeniably Maleficent the Glutton!
Not a stain of blood neither a stench of death followed the heir of the Glutton Territory, no. Instead, the Halfling in between the frozen dragons that loomed her was oozing with vitality and confidence.
“Master!” It was the Calamity Dragon who overcome the shock of the sudden appearance brought by the supposedly dead Halfling. After all, a citizen of a Nether World would die upon one stab wound from a weapon forged by a holy flame – it was a common knowledge.
Though there were a lucky few who managed to keep their immortal li
Black feathers rained down. Gone was the veil of mist and ashes that cloaked the three silhouettes. What was left were the rondo of lightning bolts and flames. The question of what would struck them first, the thunderstorm of the Nether World or the zaps of the demon’s king flamethrower, was uncertain for the fallen angel and the grand duke. But for the two, there was nothing left to lose. Whether they die killing the Demon King or they die trying - it was a fight of no return.To dwell the concept of death and life was an absurd concept for the fallen angel and the lord of darkness.“This is it? This is the power of the demon lord who has the only potential to combat me?” Demon King Lucifer the Prideful on his full glory cackled. Embers of black and red spewed from his fang-filled mouth as he laughed at the very sight of the two before him. He continued, “This is it? This is all of you’ve got? How preposterous!”Demon K
“For me? What is for me?” For Maleficent the Glutton, if only she heard it on the other day right before she died; she bet her ass that she would have flipped. But after experiencing the hollow abyss brought by infamous death, her eyes opened for a perspective that she thought she would never ever have.Upon her series of questions, the recipients of her questions stopped whatever shit they were doing.Maleficent the Glutton could not help but frown as she cocked her head and waited for them to finally look in her direction. She was floating at their back. She could also feel the stare of the demon king who hovered over them like a veil. Maleficent the Glutton wandered her gaze around but she could not find any traces of Gabriel the Faithful. Somehow, the black-colored wings of her mother were an explanation enough.“Isn’t it a bit too late for your filial piety, guys? I mean, it’s not like I didn’t die and come back. Anyway &
DEMON KING LUCIFER THE PRIDEFUL’S POINT OF VIEWThere was once a lone man who was very lonely. He was shunned by the others for all of the living creatures of the world must meet him. And so, they chased him away. He took a sword a split himself into seven so he would always have a companion.It was quite a lonely story, but it was a story that would build a dynasty that the other worlds would soon fear – the making of the Nether World and the first seven lords of the said realm.For Lucifer the Prideful, all things were temporary. All things – glory and family – die. There were so many ways to die but the only true death was to never live the life one wanted.For him, life was his to end. None can hide though many tried and denied his presence.Those who ran away from him froze in front of the throes of death, foolish thinking that they had outsmarted him. They laughed only to end up screaming. They danced away from him onl
Standing a good distance from the battlefield where blood and magic had been spilled for quite some time now, Apollo Sky the Loyal – whose white-feathered wings were spread out in the darkened skies of the Nether World – cocked his head. His cerulean eyes flashed with relief and wariness for even Maleficent the Glutton was given a chance by the Higher Creator of the realms, the irrefutable fact that an archangel had turned into a fallen one was something that Heavenly World could not let go of – especially his father.“What are you waiting for?” Apollo Sky the Loyal, a guardian angel apprentice, did not beat around the bush. With glancing at the man beside him, he asked his father. Gone was the tremble in his voice. It had long vanished after seeing how Maleficent the Glutton defied the norms. A slap or two were the least of his concern. The well-being of his friends and the Transylvania Academy were Apollo Sky’s priority. After all, this w
Standing above the unconscious and chained leader of the archangel, Apollo Sky the Loyal barely turned his head upon the hissing sound of Levi the Envious’ Basilisk.“Is he dead or unconscious now, Apollo? Because I very much prefer to be sure you know.” What followed was the Halfling’s weary-laden voice in which Apollo Sky could understand very well. After all, it was as if only yesterday where he was ready to die and roll for his father – but not now. Not now when he could finally live up to his title ‘Loyal’. Though he literally betrayed his father, and he got no justification for that, Apollo Sky found the meaning for it.For the apprentice angel, loyalty was a word fitted for the good of the realms – and not directed to a person. What would a mere loyalty to one being or creature do when it would not help the bigger picture?“He’s not dead. I don’t plan on being a fallen angel, thank yo
Imagine a place where it was always night and you were waiting for the dawn that would never come – Damon the Prideful also known as the unbeatable tool of the Demon King Lucifer the Prideful. He was there. He grew up there. He grew up deep inside an ocean of vast emptiness. Damon the Prideful had no one to save him.The Nether World consumed everything, leaving only a sheer emptiness in its wake. Because of this, the halfling prince had become a hollow being as well.Though Damon the Prideful had a mother locked by his father to keep him on leash, Damon the Prideful had no one. He was a doomed outsider. As a child, he was once afraid of the dark – of what were lurking beyond the grimed veil.“Trample those who dare stand your path. Believe it, Damon, and you will have a chance to get your way out of this shithole. Do not let go of your anger, it will serve you will,” said his mother after their first encounter. The young halfling prince
Lightning streaks littered the darkened sky, but for Damon the Prideful – the dawn had finally come back for him. For the first time, the faith he thought that had abandoned him was finally on his side this time and for once ever since he existed, Damon the Prideful was grateful to be born.Every speck of ash that swirled around Damon the Prideful seemed to freeze. The roars of the thunderclaps and lightning bolts seized from his senses. Every pore of his skin emitted warmth that cradled his frozen heart. And his blood pounded through his veins, singing one word ever since he locked gaze with a pair of emerald ones – Maleficent.Time froze for Damon. Gone were his titles.Damon the Prideful? Never. For what he had shown, after the tears he shed, the ‘prideful’ in his name would only be a mockery.Damon the Lost? Was he still lost when his dawn had come back? No.Damon was only Damon. Before he was a spawn or a to
Grand Duke Beelzebub pushed both Maleficent and Selaphiel behind him as if a mere action could protect the two from the conniving eyes of the Demon King Lucifer the Prideful.But Maleficent had enough of the demon king’s crap. And so, she moved past her father and mother. Her wings took her right in front of the smirking demon king. Flying a mere couple of meters from the ruler of the Nether World in a matter of seconds, Maleficent cocked her head as she crossed her arms before her.“Are you sure you want to stay here and burn me and my dear ones for the sake of your petty entertainment, Your Royal Wickedness?” Maleficent the Glutton mirrored her opponent’s smirk.A pair of red and green clashed.“Maleficent!” On cue, the grand duke and the fallen angel appeared right beside the Glutton Heir. The lord of darkness was about to open his lips for a round of profanities for his daughter’s recklessness when Maleficent
