Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 847 Familiar Faces

Traveling so far, the tremors near the eastern outskirts began to fade like a dream; Lilith and I found ourselves starting to gather a few stares from the soldiers of the Etherial Plane. It couldn't be helped as I looked like a sexy ass Demon, molded by the Angels, and Lilith, well, she was Lilith. I was sure she could turn a gay man straight if she tried.

Speaking with Mia, who was slowly looking at my wings, she looked at me with a bit of envy, " I want some too."

"And I want fifty bitches who look like my wife. Wait. That's not a bad idea!' I quickly noted, glancing at Lilith, who turned to me, narrowing her eyes.

"Can you clone yourself?"

"I could, " She whispered, finding her way into my arms like a nimble cat, "But could you handle fifty? You can barely handle one."

"Maybe three,"

"Fifty to three? You're shaming yourself, you know."

"You weren't saying that yesterday. Or the week before, or the year before that."

It had been two years since End had left to kill the Mother of Demons and only a week since Lilith had told me that. But it really didn't matter. I could care less for that woman, whatever her plan was or is.

The Order of Chaos will fix her, and I'll be happy or as satisfied as one can be in fear of Lucifer trying to kill me when he finds out. I wonder what his thoughts regarding all this were.

Good god, I should have read the bible.

"Sene?" Lilith whispered for only me to hear, patting my cheeks, "Where'd you go?"

Coming back to myself with the help of her touch, I smile, " Just thinking of Lucifer."

p "Oh, don't worry about him."

"Will my wife be protecting me?" I asked, holding her tightly.

"Huh? Dear no, I'm just saying he'll go after you first before he comes after me." She joyfully said, " Being a woman kind of has an advantage. I get to use my hubby as bait." She added, patting my cheeks lovingly.

"That's why I'm telling the order of chaos, so they can tell Lucifer this was all your doing." I countered, watching her joyous expression slip away.

"You!"

"That's right! It is I, your man, your world! Foolish woman! You've fallen upon my trap card AHAHAH."

"Sene, I'm pregnant."

"you were just on a battlefield. I'm sure you can take care of yourself."

"You're an ass."

Feeling a great victory, sweeter than sex, wash over me, I was all smiles when I suddenly sensed a familiar aura, and the carriage came to a swift halt.

"That's!"

"Hmmm," Lilith coldly hummed.

"And his wife!" I added, " I was sure she'd died, but I guess I can finally fulfill my dream of t-bagging another."

Standing up, startling everyone, I stepped out of the carriage and gazed at the squad of soldiers gathering like they always do.

"Mr. Kratos, get back in. Now!"

Ignoring the voices of soldiers, Astral Force surged as I opened my palm toward the couple hidden in the woods around us.

Startling everyone, the sounds of cracking trees erupted in my ear as I telepathically pulled the King of the Celestrial Palace into my hands.

"YOU!"

"Yura!"

Staring at the wife and husband, whom I never expected to see again, I could not help but become startled by the look on their faces, scarred by a recent battle. Their clothes were torn, and there was not even an ounce of sovereignty in their stance.

"Help us, please!" Tian Wang feebly uttered, " They are after us! Hundreds are!"

I could feel Lilith's eyes on me, and I knew she wanted me to kill him. But the man was a High God; killing him was just wasteful. I could turn him. Plus, I made a deal with her grandfather.

"PUT THEM DOWN NOW!"

Surrounded by the entire squad of soldiers unleashing a flood of Yin Qi, neither Lilith nor I batted an eye.

"If—"

I had not even finished when the Abyssal Daughter released a terrifying sword intent that split apart the cloudy skies, turning the land around us bright.

The soldiers all stepped back as her icy eyes lingering with a demonic glint, stared dead at the man in her eye.

"Your usefulness to Arsene and I have faded." She said, pointing her finger towards them, filled with enough sword intent to pierce through the defenses of any High God. "This is for almost killing me, back—"

"Ease yourself," I warmly said, patting her head. That, under most circumstances, would make her purr. But at this time, I could see nothing but a ruthless killer by my side.

"I'm your father! Please don't do this." Tian Wang cried, " The demons are trying to kill us, don't let them send me to hell like—"

"Like who," I coldly said as the air turned to ice under Lilith's grim eyes.

"Protect us, and I'll say." The wife, whose name seemed to elude me, begged.

"Hmmm. Lilith?" I addressed as this was ultimately her decision; I couldn't kill Tian Wang unless I wanted to break my deal to the Hells, which would affect my spear.

"Fine," Lilith coldly chimed in after a brief moment of silence, " I'll allow it, but if you lie, I'll have pigs fuck all three holes."

"Men only got two," I said as she snapped her cold amethyst eyes towards me.

"You've got a pee hole, right?"

A cold icy chill danced along my spine as I dared not speak another word. It wasn't my place to say anything anyway.

Releasing my hold over these two weaklings whose battle prowess was barely even at Lord, I shook my head and beckoned them inside.

Shooting the soldiers a dark look that scared them a little, I didn't bother to explain myself as I pointed towards some randoms in my carriage, "You two out. Find somewhere else to stay."

"By Tenebraes kindness, I thank you." Tian Wang cried, " Those demons would have sent me to the Nines."

"And why would they do that?" I patiently asked, feeling Lilith's killing intent grow.

"Because they are Cleaning House," Lilith then said. "By order of Asmodeus."

"Huh?"
