Hell’s Consort

Chapter 257 - Messy Love Triangle



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

The Archdemon of Lust

Prince Luxen from the Second Circle of Hell

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

Frowning at this weird phenomenon, Satan had ordered their Legions to halt their attack for the meantime because it was a waste of mana.

It didn't work on the lotus flower despite increasing their attacks through Archdemon magic.

Satan's Legion placed their bows and arrows down, remaining unmoved in their position.

Satan glanced at Ravin then to Luxen, giving a little nod before the three decided to advance toward the Lotus.

  Luxen bowed his head, respectfully at his Uncle.

The First Made Archdemons were the strongest in Hell.

It wasn't good to get on their bad side now that his Domina was in trouble for using Archdemon Magic by illegal mean to get away from her mate and destroying his territory.

Luxen didn't even know where this damned lotus came from.

"What is happening?" Satan asked Luxen.

Scratching his jaw, Luxen gave him a half-shrug because he didn't know. 

Widening his stance, Ravin inserted himself between his uncle and Luxen, blocking him from Satan' view.

His Uncle didn't castigate his brother for the blatant disrespect.

Wondering by himself if there was any favouritism at play, Luxen narrowed his eyes at his Uncle before he moved his gaze back to the Archdemon of Gluttony. 

Crossing his arms, Ravin glowered in accusation. "You didn't take care of our pretty wife properly, Luxen." 

Luxen's arm shot out to grab Ravin by his collar as he brought his face closer to his.

Baring his teeth, the Archdemon of Lust glowered back at his brother. "Why don't we check the lotus flower and figure out how I summoned something so heavenly?"

Luxen watched Ravin struggle to free himself from keeping him in his position.

His strength was strained due to his broken wing, accidentally releasing Ravin. 

His brother's burst of power broke through his control.

Ravin manoeuvred his hold on him using his arms and elbows, kicking his left thigh.

Immense pain exploded through his body that he almost lost the strength in his wing muscles as the throbbing pain made great waves up to his stomach.

There was painful tightness in his throat as his limbs trembled.

Luxen didn't gasp nor express his agony because Satan was present.

It would be a disgrace to be seen as vulnerable Archdemon in front of his Uncle.

Who knew what his Uncle Satan had plotted in his scheming mind if he saw just one sign of weakness?

Luxen advanced quickly, and Ravin tensed and widened his stance, preparing for the fight.

Clasping his other hand to Ravin's torso, Luxen increased the pressure on his hands to throw him aside.

In a heartbeat, Luxen brought back the Archdemon fork in his hand and hit Ravin in the shoulders.

He didn't mean to kill his brother by impaling him.

He was just offended at the Archdemon of Gluttony's implication that he couldn't handle such a simple girl for six months.

As heat flushed through his body, Luxen let the Archdemon magic flow from his arm to his weapon as his entire body crackled with electric sparks.

He sharply smacked his weapon a few times in hopes to bash his head with it, but Ravin was quick to grab the Archdemon Fork from his hand. 

With flaring nostrils, he drove Luxen's own fork into his neck as if to behead him. 

"This is for my Amare's revenge," Ravin swore.

It was a threat that Luxen didn't doubt for a moment.

  Luxen strongly flapped his Archdemon wings and flew backwards, but it was barely an escape.

Lifting his arms in a cross to protect his head, he closed his eyes and cringed when Ravin pounced with fluid stealth.

Luxen was ready to meet his fate without a choice.

He still believed that his Archdemon brother wouldn't end him.

Luxen had practically helped in his separation with the Vampire King, but then, Archdemons weren't a race which was known to be grateful.

They kill and torture creatures as a way to show their gratitude.

Luxen opened one eye, wondering why he felt no pain when he could hear Ravin's momentum as he sharply smacked his weapon a couple of times.

Was Luxen's protection barrier effective despite his weakened state?

There was an invisible barrier cast between Ravin and Luxen.

In his effort to get to him, Luxen's brother banged the weapon repeatedly to destroy it.

The air around them suddenly shimmered.

In the blink of an eye, the barriers morphed into thick red walls before it shattered into triangular shards from Ravin's Fork's constant beating.

Ravin was prepared to strike at Luxen again, but the Archdemon Fork had vanished into thin air from Ravin's hand, turning into a red mist. 

They paused for a while as they confronted the red mist in a frown.

Someone cleared his throat, and Ravin and Luxen turned their heads toward t the direction.

"My nephews, aren't you too old to fight for a mere female in front of your Uncle?" Satan demanded with a hint of impatience. "Both of you are somewhat preoccupied with each other instead of the Archangelic Invasion in our Dominion." 

He narrowed his gaze in distaste, "I don't like not being the centre of everyone's attention, but I guess it is understandable since I was competing with your lady, am I right?"

  "I apologize for this outrageous behaviour, Uncle. This wouldn't happen again." Ravin faced their Uncle respectfully bowed in front of Satan. "I am angry that Luxen had put my Amare in harm's way."

She isn't just his property but mine as well. If she is broken beyond repair, then my blood bond with her will be affected." Turning to Luxen, Ravin's lips were twisted with annoyance as he said, "She should have just stayed with me. I will not trust you anymore around what is mine, Luxen."

Ravin didn't wait for Luxen to argue or Satan to comment on that passive-aggressive remark because he already flew to stand behind their Uncle's back, watching Luxen with golden eyes full of malicious intent.
