She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 522: I Wish

A pair of massive wings protruded from Adeline's back. The feathers of her wings were the colors of fire – a mix of red, orange and yellow.

And along with her wings, a protective aura formed around her in the shape of an extremely rare bird.

It was going to be immortal Adeline's true form after she cultivated enough aura in the coming years of her life.

God stopped his continuous attack on his son upon seeing Adeline's aura.

"A phoenix?" He squinted his eyes and thought to himself, "It's not supposed to happen… A new reality is being created yet again…"

Not just God but Adeline was also surprised to see those wings. She was also hopeful at the same time thinking that she would be able to save both her and Theodore from crash landing.

"Perfect! This is what I needed," she thought to herself. They were approaching a huge rock at a faster rate.

She breathed out sharply and mumbled, "Now how do I fly?"

"Er…" Adeline clenched her teeth and thought of flapping her wings. And in response to her thought, the wings did start to move.

However, they were not moving elegantly like that of Theodore's and Azriel's. She wasn't quite able to control her wings in the direction she desired. Nonetheless, she was able to slow down.

She got both of them away from the rock and onto a more levelled part of the hill. She tried to land on her feet but her wings misbalanced and she fell on her back with Theodore on top of her.

God scoffed and thought, "These two love to keep on challenging their fate and keep on challenging me. It's going to be a never ending cycle… At this point, I don't even know for sure what new issues these two will create if they are left unchecked."

God floated towards Adeline and Theodore. He already had a fitting punishment for Theodore in his mind.

Adeline saw her father-in-law coming for her husband again. She hastily pushed Theodore to the side. She would have loved to ask him to run away from there again but he was as good as unconscious.

She saw God doing some elegant hand movements as though he was going to do something far worse to Theodore than just hitting him with a series of thunder bolts.

Adeline stood in front of Theodore and spread out her hands and wings in an attempt to stop the almighty from doing whatever he was going to do to Theodore.

"Father, please forgive Theodore." Adeline pleadingly looked at God.

She had not seen Theodore actually killing the soldiers of Mihir. But from what Arion had told her and from how God was striking Theodore mercilessly, she assumed that Theodore had indeed took some lives.

So she kept on speaking on behalf of her husband, "Theodore went through a lot today. He saw me die and he thought that his brother was dying. He was in a lot of pain. He might have acted recklessly but please… please give him another chance. I will make sure that he will never repeat today's mistake."

"No, Adeline." The pitiless look on the almighty's eyes was unchanging. "I will make sure that he will never repeat today's mindless act. I'm going to bind him to Hell just the way I did to Samael. That way he will never walk on Earth, nor will he ever kill a living soul."

Adeline was devastated upon hearing how the almighty was going to punish Theodore. Her eyes filled with tears when she further begged, "Please don't say that, father. How am I going to live here on Earth without my husband by my side?"

"That's not my problem. Theodore should have thought about the consequences of his action before he decided to slaughter all those souls from existence." His voice was colder than ever.

"Stop!" Theodore's voice resounded throughout the hills all of a sudden. He had recovered enough to listen to his father and pick himself up from the ground.

And he screamed in pure rage, "Just stop speaking! Every time you speak, my gut starts to churn and I feel like vomitting! So just stop…" Theodore summoned his flaming sword and threw it right at his father while screaming, "Don't say another damned word!"

God swiped his hand nonchalantly and kept on hovering right where he was. The flaming sword changed its direction away from him and landed at the foot of that hill.

And without wasting a moment, God threw several lightning bolts at Theodore to keep him down.

However, Adeline did exactly what Theodore had done for her earlier. She stood in between God and Theodore and then wrapped Theodore with her wings.

"Arghhhhhh…" She groaned and screamed in agony upon receiving at least ten thunder bolts at once. All of her senses got messed up. She wasn't able to see or hear clearly. And she wondered how Theodore was still alive after taking so many bolts from his father earlier.

"No! Adeline!" Theodore panicked upon seeing as well as feeling Adeline's pain. He tried to push Adeline away from him but she was tightly clinging on to him. "Why did you do that?"

Adeline smiled even when tears were rolling down her eyes. And she whispered to her husband, "I thought I would share the punishment since I was the main reason why you did what you did."

After hearing his wife, it dawned upon Theodore how his actions were affecting his wife. Making her take the blame for his actions was the last thing he wanted to do. But this emotional fool was even ready to take punishments on his behalf.

And all that made him ponder, "Could I be any worse? How could I lose my mind like that? How can I put Adeline in harm's way? That also from Him? I should have quietly stayed in the cave and should have waited for Adeline to open her eyes."

Theodore's eyes fell on his father. And his eyes were wide open when he saw orange and red lights flickering around his father. Stay connected with m v l e mpyr

He knew what his father was going to do because he had seen something like that once before. He knew his father was not bluffing earlier. He knew his father was soon going to bind him to Hell.

Soon, the whole sky was covered with clouds which looked like they were burning. The ground under them started to rumble and grumble. The hill started to shake and shift and small cracks started to appear below Theodore and Adeline's feet.

"What's happening?" Adeline darted her eyes around and held Theodore's hands tightly.

"He's sending me to Hell… forever…" Theodore looked down in guilt. And he apologized to Adeline, "I should have thought about us before going rampant. I should have–"

Adeline abruptly turned around to face God and asked in as loud a voice as possible, "I would like to make a wish."

God was about to open his mouth to say something. He had no intention of letting Theodore off the hook after Theodore offended him by killing so many souls.

However, before he could say anything to put a limitation on Adeline's wish just the way he had put a limitation saying she was not allowed to use the wish to ask for her parent's lives, Adeline shouted again, "I wish to happily live till eternity with Theodore and our child on Earth."
