Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 1312 Adam and Eve II

After playing around with Lilith for a few more hours, I quickly returned to the gate I was so rudely distracted from.

Eve had claimed that one needed to be pure-hearted, but… was the ‘Breath’ not the sort of purity granted by the One?

I drew close to the swirling mass of energy, and my palm grazed the surface, feeling the distortion of spatial laws. It was strong. Extremely strong for a mere vortex of energy. A little hesitant, a ball of Qi gathered in my hand as I tossed it through as I closed my eyes, sensing the energy travel through the vortex into… suddenly losing my connection with my Qi, my frown deepened.

“What the hell?”

Annoyed, I tried it again, adding runes and other protective formations around my Qi, but once more, the connection between me and my Qi was cut.

“How odd. Maybe I should ask Lilith. Her Qi has more applications than mine.”

Sending out a message through my divine sense, Lilith arrived a few seconds later, holding onto the little kiddos sleeping away, baby droll flowing endlessly.

Lilith seemed to frown the moment her eyes crossed with the gate. I felt a hint of forewarning cut across the edge of the vortex. When a bolt of lightning emerged, slashing towards Lilith like a knife.

A little too slow as, I caught it with my bare hands, shattering the energy into a constalation of embers with a dark frown. “What the hell?”

“A seal… A Seal to the Prime Evils,” said Lilith darkly. “What the hell is this?”

I turned to Lilith. “The what?”

“The living embodiment of the Seven Sins. The seal must have sensed my intent to try to penetrate its depths.” Lilith frowned, glanced down at the children, and shook her head. “Lets not—”

“Ah… I remember now. Yeah. It was about Eve and her son Abel.” Suddenly recalling the matter, I spoke out. “She was trying to resurrect her son, but when she failed, she went mad. And—-”

“Created the Living Embodyment of the Seven Sins,” Came the voice of Eve from within the strange gate. She emerged with a sort of scowl on her lips. “Why are you two here again?”

“This is the entrance to Eden,” said Lilith, glancing at me to confirm.

And I did with a nod.

“I tried putting in some qi, but the connection was cut.”

“I did that,” said Eve, frowning. “You were trying to breach my domain.”

Now that is interesting. Being an Archeaon has a few benefits, bending reality in my favor being one. For my Qi to find its way to Eve’s domain must mean either that particular domain is the key to Eden or it is extremely dangerous that the will controlling my Qi saw to ignore its original intent and follow something else.

How curious.

“The Prime Evils, eh? Can we see it?” I asked, watching as Eve’s expression became one of disbelief.

“You… Want to see it. The seal? The most powerful seal in all of Creation blocking back the Seven forces that could annihilate the Myriad Heaven and the Abyss.”

“Yes,” said Lilith and myself.

“Unfortunately, I can’t allow that.” She said, annoying me to no end. “And before you try to force yourself through. You’ll die. I’m literally powerful enough to challenge just about any Archangel and Fallen. You’ll die in a single hit.”

Ignoring the warning of her tone, I shook my head. “I could ask Zariel to aid me. I’m sure he’ll be interested in this seal. You powerful enough to beat him?” .

“Aren’t you, his older brother!” Eve shouted. “Are you so shameless you’ll ask for his help? Your little brother?”

“Apparently so,” I gleefully teased, though is it really shameful? He is my brother. We are family. Eve’s few on the subject must be skewed.

With a growl echoing from the back of her throat, Eve snorted. “Your such a dick,”

“I know, right,” said Lilith, eyeing me like I had done something.

Ahh~ the challenges of being both sexy and strong. First-world problems.

“I can literally hear your narcissistic thoughts,” Lilith snapped, snorting when Iza popped open her beady eyes.

She looked around, cooing as her arms shot out towards Eve. “AAAA~ AAAAAAH~”

Eve hesitantly took a step back. ” I don’t do babies.”

“… The mother of mothers doesn’t do babies.” I looked at her, though it didn’t take long for me to recall her less-than-ideal situation.

The loss of a child, that madness she experienced. Not liking babies is understandable. But IZA IS SO CUTE!!!!

Look at those squishy cheeks!

Stealing the little girl away from Lilith, I tip-toed toward Eve’s side, allowing little Iza to have a closer look.

“Gabba!” she said, giggling with a droll flowing down her chin.

“She’s spoken. Eve, you are now Gabba!”

“Give me my damn child,” Lilith said, snatching the little girl away as Eve chuckled, losing her serious expression. She hesitated for a moment, thinking for a full minute.

“Look. the only people allowed here are Mephisto and me. Less than five people have ever stepped foot within these lands, and all of them have sworn an oath not to destroy the seal.”

“So Zariel hasn’t been here?” I asked her.

“If he were, and if he didn’t have manic episodes every so often. I’d have asked him to aid with the resealing due to the damage Mephisto caused.” Said Eve, alerting myself and Lilith.

That particular sword he was using during our last battle emerged in my mind.

“That bastard siphoned the energies of the Seven Prime Evils for his little project. That not only agitated the Prime Evils but also weakened the barrier. I’ve been trying to stabilize the seal, but… It’s only a matter of time before it shatters.”

“Umm. Correct me if I’m wrong, but… didn’t you just say that they had the power to destroy the Mryiad Hevens and the Abyss? Why the hell would Mephisto—”

“Why don’t you ask him?” Eve snapped at me as if I was the one who caused it. ” That fucker laughed and suddenly vanished. I haven’t seen his bitch ass since! Why don’t you ask him, seeing that you’re his disciple!”
