502 The Systems History: The promise end IV (1/2)

”Huh?” Arching his brows, Lucifer crossed his arms under his chest. ”I'm picking up —”

”No! I won't let you bring her to that damn place!” Assuming that he was there out of boredom, Churu posed a protective stance on Tora's lifeless figure.

Her emotion had already taken over her head, clouding her mind for rational deductions. All she thought at that moment was they were trying to punish Tora for her misconduct. Thus, she wouldn't let them even if she has to defy more rules.

”Interesting...” Nodding in acknowledgment, Lucifer scrutinized the crying fallen angel in amusement before he glanced at Yael's hostile countenance. ”I must thank you for doing your job halfheartedly. I wouldn't be able to witness this interesting circus in this world! How refreshing!” He chuckled as he turned his gleeful front back to Churu.

”That human...” Lucifer pointed at Tora's figure. ”You took all her sins — actually, you just devoured everyone's sins.” His lips and eyes curled upward because all he could see was the darkest aura that was shrouding Churu.

”Thus, that human's soul and its punishment were absolved. Her soul was wandering somewhere, I am lazy to track. Aya! Our Father dear is truly biased and at the same time, unbiased. What a complicated being.” Lucifer dawdled as he shook his head in disbelief while Churu and Yael processed his words.

”Is this what they call mercy?” Lucifer rubbed his chin as he pondered the purpose of why he was now the devil that managed hell and not someone else.

After a beat, Yael slowly moved her gaze to Churu before her eyes widened and her heart sank. How could their Father do this? He permitted her to settle Churu and make her voluntarily return for a lesser crime.

However, her most dreading fear still happened. The aura that around Churu, it was the same hue and vibe that was in hell. The prophecy, Alvah's name, had finally shown its purpose: SIN.

In another perspective, Yael would have thought that this would be the Father's mercy to this world. However, what about Churu?

For taking this world's vile nature, she would have to take responsibility for everything — whether it was Tora's or someone else, she would have to pay for this world's sins for it to be saved.

”Stop sulking, Alvah. Come to my manor — it will be a blast to have you in!” Ignoring whatever these two felt, or about the whole situation, Lucifer stretched his lips from ear to ear as he invited Churu as if he was just inviting her to a party.

”Lucy, what do you mean?” Still trying to wrap his words around her head, Churu muttered.

”Little demon...” Repeating on what he addressed her, Churu whispered in disbelief. She knew that her crimes were not enough for her to be a demon.
