Chapter 359: Andor - Supreme Judges of Nox (2/2)
”And if I wished to stand with Rience?” Soloman asked, stroking his grey beard with a cunning glint of an old fox.
”Even you, Soloman, cannot face all of the founders. Arsene will be placed on the list of champions. Should he not match up, we are more than willing to give him up.”
”No.” Soloman hardly told, placing his hand behind his back. ”There are few who can face me, and you along with your little faction serve no threat other than entertainment.” he lightly said, as if Areon was nothing more than air, ”But I will contest you this victory within this realm. Midgard is far too hot. Prince Sitri has played with fire, and I will have no part. What say you, Dear Prince of Hell?”
Touching my head to the floor, in haste, his dark, sinful voice sounded, ”A coward, are we? Does Asmodeus put you in so much fear? This was the trial he handed me; it's not my fault Lilith was a casualty.”
”Indeed, and he will unquestionably not fault you, but can you say the same for the boy by her side?” Areon coldly stated as Yggdrasil climbed down from his slender neck with a grim expression.
”Who? The boy who is less than fifty? Come now, even if an archangel appeared before me, why should I be fearful? Arsene understands nothing. He is nothing more than a lesser devil. That cannot even understand the power of us True devils.” Master darkly scorned. But his words were true. Like Arsene, and myself we were not born within the Hells. We have no idea the cruelty and power they hold.
”Yet, here he stands,” Yggdrisel added, shifting into a majestic beauty far different from the cute child she was, aging into what seemed to be a young woman around eighteen. She held long emerald green hair that hung to her back and a ravaging hourglass figure. Placing her hands upon her waist, she narrowed her gaze that seemed to capture life itself.
”So the bitch speaks? Where it not for your relationship with that witch, and lady Levi. I would have had you upon my bed.”
Lifting her lips upon a face that seemed to pull at even the darkest of monsters, Yggdrasil giggled, ”How vulgar you remain, Sitri. But that does change the fact that I have a close relationship with Levi-chan, who is family with the Beast king and the sleeping sin.”
A little intimidated by her pure, untouched stare that skimmed over my body, I trembled as a new sensation I could not even describe encompassed my soul. It was soft, caring, almost like home, but more.
”On your feet,” Sitri commanded, sending Areon and Soloman a profound stare, ”We will indeed see. Who has the last laugh? My deadline is upon us, and in my hands, I hold what is dear to that boy. My victory is but assured. I will win; I will always win.
”We shall see, but in the meantime, I am here for that woman who sacrificed my people in order to enter my realm.” Yggdrasil lovingly said, pointing towards the shivering Ashna.
”And what of it?” Sitri fired off. ”She is here under my command.”
Losing her joyful smile, I felt my heart begin to break as she sighed, ”Truly a vulgar man you are. I want her.”
”Who the hell are you to demand me?!” Ashna shouted, glaring with fire in her eyes.
”I see, so it seems Beastmaster Rience has not told you who I am?” Yggdrasil kindly informed with a peculiar glint, ”I am one of the seven supreme judges and leader of the Demonic Fraction that handles demons and devils due to my close relationship with Levi-Chan.”
Paling in horror, Ashna shivered, ”when... When did this happen!”
”Long after your fall,” Areon metallically expressed, sending Sitri a stern look. ”You may want to change your direction, or the moment you enter Hell once more, all the Kings and Princes of hell will be after your head.”
”Well played, and here I thought you would have remained silent, hiding your identity. This must be worth it.” Master amusingly said, betrayed by the burning heat beginning to rise from his scaly body. ”But revealing such information was not wise. The identities of each supreme Judge are to remain hidden.”
”I am more than strong enough to handle the backlash. After all, I have the help of two founders,” Yggdrasil told with a vibrant smile. ”Not to mention my status as leader of The Demonic Fraction.”
”Indeed,” Master muttered, pondering over something. ”When Arsene returns... Tell him we are waiting.”
”But of course, oh Prince of Hell.”
