Chapter 192 Demonic Curse (2)

What the hell is happening?

Bella's body suddenly began to convulse in short bursts, as she would be limp like a dead body for one second and then be shaking like she was entering cardiac arrest.

The black in her pupils peeled back into her skull, leaving her regular old pupils to sit lifelessly in her sockets.

"Hey? You dead!" Aisa asked as she slapped Bella's face very lightly.

We could now all feel the demonic presence leaving her body, but all of us were still a bit weary as Bella sat up.

"Ugh… That dude put up one hell of a fight, but it's obvious he had to limit himself in order to not make his vessel explode… bastard," Bella muttered, and Aisa finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What happened?" Findir asked as we all helped her to a seat.

"Asmodeus tried to take my fucking body. What else? But damn, is he kind of hot," Bella muttered while holding her mouth and blushing lightly.

All of us deadpanned, and Aisa even clocked her in the jaw with a very light love tap with her fist… very light. Very, very light.

"What the hell was that for?!" Bella exclaimed, and as Aisa brushed the dust off her fist, she clocked her arm back again.

"Exorcising the demon from your body,"

"W-Wait. Aisa, it's me… I-If you saw him, you would've been drooling as we- AHHHHHHH!"

Bella ran out of the room with Aisa tailing right behind her, wanting to punch her in the face so bad that the intent permeated throughout the entire mansion.

"Well, let's get some rest. It's been a long day," Luna muttered as she rubbed the back of her head and everybody else soon left the room, leaving just me… and one other person to have a sweet and nice conversation.

"*yawn*... Your friends are quite interesting," The silhouette standing in the corner of the room muttered.

"Mhm… and who might you be? A demon?"

"I don't know…." He responded before blooping out of existence and then suddenly reappearing right in front of me, leaning against the doorway.

"What are you going to do? Take over my body like the one possessing Bella?"

"I don't know… Maybe. Anyway, I came to inform you that the demon possessing you will try its hardest to try and take over your body. Even harder than the one who possessed that green-haired girl,"

"And why are you telling me this?"

Suddenly, the silhouette blooped out of existence and then reappeared in front of me, its almost dead-like eyes staring deep into my soul.

Absolute utter fear ran throughout my body, and I was frozen in place, unable to even open my mouth to cry out for help.

"*yawn*... Cause I fucking hate his guts… Alright, I'm going. My selection has been pretty good so far, but we'll see how far she comes… in fact, you all might be visiting us very soon," The silhouette yawned before cocking its head back to look up at the ceiling.

"Is somebody watching us?"

"I don't know… maybe. Well, a few. They're not that strong anyway… but you… why is your soul shaped like that?" The silhouette asked as it stepped away and then blooped out of existence.

It was nowhere to be seen in my line of sight, so I went to turn around, but once I did that, I felt a cold hand place its rough skin against my shoulder.

"It's so strange… It almost makes me want to eat you,"

The silhouette's words molded into something demonic, scratchy, and something so terrifying that its words scratched my brain.

I could barely stay conscious as the demon gripped my shoulder with such force that muscles were being compressed and then torn under its grip.

"Well, I had my fun. Come quickly to Tartarus… I'll be waiting…." The silhouette muttered before quickly disappearing into thin air.

I didn't realize it until now, but the entire world was filtered with a shade of gray, and now that the color was returning to my world, I was finally able to breathe.

"Hah… hah… hah… Which demon was that? And it seemed like they were suppressing their power as well," I muttered to myself but decided to give myself a break from thinking and just walked back to my room.

What a shit show today was…

…

(Ares POV)

"KAHAHAHAHAHA! YOUR SON BETRAYED THE GODS! DID YOU SEE THAT!? DID YOU FUCKING SEE THAT!?" A cackling voice ran throughout the entire hall.

My throne shook from anger, and my son's smirk sent a shockwave of rage to flow through my veins like blood.

"Leave," I ordered Hermes, but he just couldn't laugh as the wings on his head carried him through the room like the wind.

He rolled and turned, occasionally flipping before I grabbed his leg and slammed him to the ground as I was already pissed off by my son's stupid actions.

"Hey, fucking let go of me," Hermes ordered with an expression so serious and threatening you'd think he was trying to kill me.

"Make me," I ordered before gripping his ankle even tighter.

"Don't make me fight you,"

"You're in my domain… everything here is under my control,"

The reality around me warped, including the castle, which bent and shook with each weapon behind my throne sliding out of place.

They presented themselves like an array of instruments, ready to create the best music in existence.

"Kekeke… Fine… Seeing Athena so mad made me satisfied anyway… kekekeke…."

Slowly, I let go of Hermes' ankle, and he tried to land a quick sneak attack by kicking me in the jaw, but I just stood there, my cold and blood-thirsty eyes staring down at him.

His kick had done absolutely nothing compared to my body which was tempered by Tartarus.

"Anyway… Good luck meeting your son in fucking hell," Hermes smirked before disappearing by utilizing his infinite speed.

This boy… If he keeps traveling down this path… I might have to get rid of him.
