Chapter 884 Not Everything

Newest Chapter for Highest Tier (April 2022)

***************************************

Queen Morgan of the Autumn Courts

***************************************

"It's so unfair how he favored Ravin, a traitor's son, rather than me who stayed by his side from the beginning until the end of the rebellion he led which turned out to be a f*cking failure! Ravin didn't do anything to deserve to be an Archdemon Prince and I am here to take my revenge!"

Queen Morgan was close to breaking down.

Why did Archangel Uriel didn't fight for their love and their child until the end?

Did she become too much of a burden that he decided to leave her behind?

Did he regret everything before the Demon King destroyed him?

Her lips had quivered from the effort to stop herself from shedding tears but she couldn't hold them back anymore.

A single teardrop fell or two but the rest of her remained composed.

It wasn't obvious to her that Beelzebub had a score to settle with the Archdemon of Gluttony, her long lost son that her mind couldn't wrap around.

He hadn't expressed that hatred enough in his face.

Kotari remained unbothered in all of his interactions with Sloth and Ravin which just showed how good of an actor he was.

He didn't care about anyone or anything else's .

She kept herself cold and detached but Beelzebub's revelation made her so anxious she found it hard to breathe.

Emotionally distraught, Queen Morgan's vision blurred and her Fae wings stopped fluttering out of its own accord.

Queen Morgan raised her head to look at her rescuer in a daze.

She swayed from side to side and she didn't even notice that she was falling until Jora grabbed her elbow in mid-air.

"I apologize but please get yourself together, Your Highness." Jora said under his breath and gave her arm a little shake. "This isn't the time to faint when the fight hadn't even started yet."

It took a lot of effort for Queen Morgan to clear her mind and flit her wings again.

Archdemon of Lust

Prince Luxen of the Second Circle of Hell

*******************************************************

It felt good to steal away the things that were important to the Vampire King but it was unfortunate that he hadn't witnessed the destruction he had caused.

Luxen wasn't able to take immense pride in it unless he raze the Autumn Courts to the ground.

Apollyon lost everything in the blink of an eye and the bastard deserved it.

No.

He still had the Empress by his side and that woman was everything to him.

He was in a better mood just a second ago but that thought made his blood boil.

As Luxen drummed his fingertips on the armrest of his chair, he pondered about how he could steal his Domina's heart.

He heard from his spy in the Autumn Courts that the Empress was about to give birth to his child.

Well, he could use that to manipulate her.

Luxen had already invaded Apollyon's Kingdom and killed everyone except Cederic and all the women--humans and vampires.

A hot-blooded Archdemon like him would never lack the nourishment he needed.

He heard from Kotari, a member of the Autumn Queen's Cadre and an ex-Fallen Angel, that the Queen made Apollyon and his Domina, royalties in her Kingdom.

Luxen spent a few tedious hours stripping them of their titles in the Vampire Kingdom and now they regained their new status so easily as if it just fell into their laps?

The two were demoted into Prince and Princess in the Autumn Courts but that scenario was better than being commoners.

He initially wanted the Vampire King to be his slave and Luna his whore but he guessed it was wishful thinking on his part.

He would only admit that he miscalculated until the day he was sent back to Hell.

Luxen's president and his Legion might be gone but he was still powerful enough to summon more high-ranking demons.

All he had to do was engage in carnal feasts with promiscous women until their souls were devoured.

These women had no idea that devouring fragmented spirits of Jezebel they had cultivated inside of them only made him stronger.

The day before the second siege at the Autumn Courts, Beelzebub came to talk to him in his throne room after Luxen handed the limp woman he just used to pleasure himself over to his new military general, Cederic.

Luxen stated his expectations first to show the Marquis who was the one in charge.

"Don't forget the bargain we made, Kotari. I did help you get stronger despite you having the rank of a Marquis."

"It's the least you could do from what your father did to me." Kotari replied before he shifted back to his demon form.

Perhaps, he hated to be called by the Fae identity he created in the Autumn Courts now.

Luxen smirked as he waved his hand in dismissal. "Yes. Yes. He thought you wanted to steal his position as the Demon King, blah, blah, blah."

His past victimhood had made Beelzebub narrate this tale to him a thousand times after he showed him his true colors and it's getting boring.

"I would have sworn my life to kill a pawn of Lucifer with my bare hands but I still have honor left in me despite his betrayal." The statement was questionable that it made Luxen raise an eyebrow. "I trust that you wouldn't be anything like him, Prince Luxen, unless you see a Marquis like me as a threat."

"Even if you take my brother's place as the Archdemon of Gluttony, I still wouldn't see you as a threat. You should also know that I am capable of punishing you whenever i want like what my father did. I could send you to back to the ninth circle if I caught you doing something devious." Luxen lifted his arms to stretch them upward before leaning his back against his throne. "After what you just did to Queen Morgan, I'm still on the fence about your loyalty and you can't blame me for that."

"We had a common goal to kill Ravin. You can have your much-awaited killing spree while I'm off to destroy the him during the tournament. I am binded by my oath to return the favor and serve you forever as the new King of the entire Realms."
