The Archdemon of Sloth

Prince Sloth from the Seventh Circle of Hell

***********************************************************

Sloth's pleasant dream got cut off abruptly after the Vampire King 'supposedly' separated his head off his neck with his bare arms.

His heartbeat raced and a heavy feeling settled in the pit of his stomach.

The pain from the sudden decapitation was too vivid that it disturbed him a little.

Sloth couldn't blame his sister-in-law's husband.

If he was interested in having a mate for himself, he would have done the same to whoever man he caught watching her while she was bathing naked in the lake with the Faeries.

Unfortunately, he was too lazy to pour effort into a romantic relationship and he wasn't that much of a bastard to let the other one do the work.

He would spare her from the frustrations of the expectations he wasn't about to meet.

Sloth was contented with being an Archdemon Familiar, anyway, despite being forced into situations.

Sometimes he didn't like it but, at least it was bearable.

Now, he was floating into this pitch-black darkness and he had no idea how to return to that Emerald Room with the real Lune and the birth attendant.

Yet, at the same time, he had this strange awareness of every sensation his body can feel.

He frowned.

Should he force himself to wake up after this?

Sloth relaxed his furrowed brows and exhaled a heavy sigh.

He was aware that this was a dream and what occurred earlier didn't happen in real life. What Sloth hadn't anticipated next was that he would be a casual observer of the bloodshed and destruction of his dream.

Sloth feared that what he just witnessed in front of him was not the Autumn Court's impending future but the current one.

The Three Fates just strengthened their reputation for prophecy.

The evil force had risen after the Great War which would ruin the Material Realm all over again.

First and foremost, their aim was to wreck the Garden of the Four Seasons and burn all the arbors of fruit-bearing trees.

Without the existence of this Holy Ground in the Autumn Courts, all the creatures in the Material Realm will have no protection against the Demons in case they decided to occupy a vessel permanently.

Queen Morgan had used everything in her power to banish as many demons as possible with the help of magicians blending into the Fae Militia.

As per the Autumn Queen's orders, the cabal of magicians had spread magic circles around the area to attack and defend themselves from the minion of beasts invading the Kingdom.

Capable warriors in the Fae Militia had used iron swords that could effectively kill a few percentages of low-ranked demons in Luxen's Legion.

Even if they couldn't defeat high-ranking demons with conventional weaponry, the Fae Knights tried to make up for it by using their physical strength, speed, and the set of selenite-coated metallic armors they wore to increase their resistance against demonic possession.

Queen Morgan infused Hecate's magic on the Knight's shields, providing them more defense.

It was clear that their skills in swordsmanship had improved after training with his brother and the Vampire King beforehand.

The Fae Knights hit weaker targets accurately with their blades which made it hard for demons to recover.

The bodies of the lesser demons melted when they perished.

They also learned how to dodge faster every time a demon attempted to take their beating hearts out with their sharp claws.

Sometimes, he couldn't believe that Ravin had shared their well-hidden secret with their enemies.

Now, everyone in the Material Realm had figured out a demon's weakness--including theirs.

The highly critical part of a demon's soul was at the center of their brow, neck, eyes, and chest.

Ravin just completely disregarded who he was and the life he lived after being mated.

The Archdemon of Gluttony was hopeless.

'Oh. The things his brother did for Lune...' Sloth clicked his tongue and shook his head in regret.

If the rest of the Archdemons knew about how outrageous Ravin had acted as the Vampire King's General in the Fae Militia, they would simply dismiss it as a lie.

He was only glad that Ravin wasn't insane enough to procure a demon blade for each Fae Knight.

That act would make him a traitor to the Demon Race.

Queen Morgan tried her best to control masses of demons and steal them from under Luxen's control after her selected wizards performed the stun effect.

She and the wizards had performed this advanced type of magic that might cost them their lives if they had no idea how to estimate the number of monsters she could manage.

She was a true ruler who wanted to safeguard instead of just nurture the Kingdom like the rest of the Faerie Queens does.

She led the Fae Militia with courage, fulfilling her promise to protect the weak and the helpless until her death.

Princess Sapphire helped by producing light orbs to trap and destroy these beasts, countering the Archdemon's Hellfire.

That particular attack had a huge effect on the enemies compared to the combined efforts of the Fae Militia.

Princess Sapphire could be the next Queen of the Summer Courts with that amount of power.

The young demigod shouldn't be underestimated.

The Fallen Angel, whom Sloth hadn't recognized yet and simply assumed he was Luxen's new president, noticed the damage that Sapphire had done that she and Xerxes found themselves face to face with him.

They tried to end each other with the power of light and fire.

He had produced brilliant white lights while Princess Sapphire's orbs shone as fiery orange as the sun, leaving more deaths in its wake.

The two were rather reckless with their abilities as if they didn't care whom their wide-range explosives hit at all, increasing more casualties and decreasing the number of their opponents as possible.

Demons and Faeries alike had learned to move and get out of the way before their own allies kill them.
