Chapter 8: Tell me what you know! (1/2)

”I was wondering what you had to say...” Lucifer said as he looked down on Loraine.

His voice was angry, and his face was turned into a frown.

After all, who wouldn't be angry if the demons that you used to protect accused you of betrayal?

However, Lucifer wasn't really angry about that.

He already suspected that some things would change, or some new theories would be up in the open.

He already thought of that scenario when he decided to go out of his mansion one more time.

What he was angry about was how Loraine took so much time to say that.

That was, at least, 3 seconds of Lucifer's life!

”I kept you alive because I was going to ask you about the modern Hidden world, but it looks like there's no need for that.”

Lucifer was seriously angry about that.

Back in the day, no demon would dare take 3 seconds from Lucifer's time!

Even 1 second was enough to bring them the capital punishment, and that was death, and yet, this woman actually dared to take 3 seconds?!

”Insane!” Lucifer said as he roused his mana once more!

He didn't care about the consequence of his actions right now.

After all, it was just his body that would be affected.

He just had to heal it one more time, and that was why Lucifer used his magic.

However, before Lucifer could use his magic on Loraine, Loraine spoke again.

”Are you going to send me to Purgatory as well?”

”A demon who is still fighting in wars, unlike you?”

”Unlike you, who turned his back on us demons?!”

Loraine raised her voice as she looked up at Lucifer!

However, that was not all she did.

As she was prostrating, it was hard for her, but she stood up fast!

And when her hands were revealed, some light was on it!

And that light was from the magic that Loraine was preparing when she was talking!

”Lucifer, the traitor!!” Loraine shouted as she swung her arms to punch Lucifer in the face!

Her hands that were shining in light were looking dangerous, and even Lucifer wouldn't be able to escape unscathed from it!

Why? It was because the magic was...

”Astaroth's light!”

...a magic that was based on one of the Hell Gods!

At least, that was what Loraine thought.

Boom!

A loud explosion resounded out in the hallway when Loraine punched Lucifer in the face.

Smoke and specks of dust rose in the air that hindered Loraine's vision, but she still felt it.

'I felt a solid hit!' Loraine thought as she smiled.

After all, she felt like she hit a solid one, and even the magic on her hand exploded right on Lucifer's face!

Even a Hell God wouldn't be able to survive magic that came from another Hell God!

At least, that's what she thought.

However, that smile of hers soon dispersed as she heard a voice coming from the smoke.

”Fuck this body of mine...to think I can't even dodge an ant's fist because of it...”

”W-what...” Loraine muttered as she felt some kind of resistance in the fist that struck Lucifer.

She felt herself being pushed, and that was true as her arm was now shaking!

Shhhh.

Her feet slid off quite smoothly as that resistance continued pushing her.
