UMALINGAWNGAW ang malakas na pagtawa ni Zenaia sa buong lugar habang walang hirap nitong pinatutumba ang mga kalaban. Mabilis na dumanak ang dugo sa lupa habang isa-isang pinapaslang ng dalaga ang mga bampira at demonyo.

"Is this all you've got, brother?" Nanunuyang tanong ni Zenaia habang sabay-sabay na pinupugutan ng ulo ang apat na bampirang sumugod sa kaniya gamit ang itim niyang apoy.

Nagliliyab naman sa galit ang tingin ng Demon King habang pinanonood siyang pinatutumba ang mga tauhan nito.

"You haven't change. You're still fond of these things..." Pang-aasar pa ni Zenaia. "How many years has it been? Bakit ganito pa rin ang istilo mo, Zurin?"

"I'm not really sure. I haven't been counting," Lucifer answered coldly. He hates the fact that she's just toying with him.

Demons and vampires dropped like flies before immediately turning into ashes. In a mere instant, Zenaia managed to wipe every single demon corpses and ordinary vampires until they are finally left alone. Zenaia got rid of her flames and faced the Demon King.

Zenaia peered at him and her mouth stretched into a cold smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"You don't have to worry, Zurin. I'm not as fond at meeting you again as you are," she assured him.

Lucifer chuckled. "How does it felt like?" Sa halip ay tanong nito.

Zenaia's gaze narrowed in confusion.

"You've used up a lot of those flames right after you woke up. Aren't you being drained?"

Napatitig si Zenaia. "What are you saying?"

Lucifer grinned. "This is exactly what I have been waiting for!" Malakas nitong sabi bago itinaas ang dalawang kamay.

Walang anu-ano'y lumitaw mula sa lupa na nakapaligid kay Zenaia ang pitong prinsipe at ang ilan pang mga demons.

Iginala ni Zenaia ang mga mata sa mga ito. She had to admit, these demons are not the same weak ones that she killed earlier. These demons possessed abilities that if used all at once against her, it will indeed give her a hard time.

Patuloy sa pagtawa nang malakas si Lucifer. "Bakit kaya sa tingin mo ay dinala ka namin dito? Don't you remember this place? This place is the main container of your power. This is the place where you have sealed a huge part of your self. Think!"

Doubt, filled her chest like a huge wave.

What is this? Why is her body gradually feeling numb all of a sudden? It felt like there are multiple forces suddenly chaining her body down to the ground, making it heavy and hard to move.

"Ah..." Lucifer sighed while still laughing. "That power, is what I have been waiting for."

Zenaia's gaze sharpened. Nakuha na niya ang pinupunto nito. He brought those minions and made them attack her from different directions so she would defend herself non-stop by using her flames. Lumingon siya sa paligid. Pitong matataas na bato na mukhang poste ang lumitaw sa paligid na kanina ay hindi nakikita roon. Each of it are completely destroyed because of her destructive flames. Her eyes narrowed as she finally recognized them. Those are the pillars made by Hera to form the seals that would lock all of her abilities, and now that all of it are broken...

She felt a familiar scratching from the back of her mind, her chest tightening, making it hard to breathe. Ngunit sa halip na makadama ng takot ay napangisi siya at sinalubong ang tingin ni Lucifer na halatang nasasabik na makuha ang kapangyarihan ng Sin of Wrath.

"I must admit that you've gotten smarter, brother," she said in an approving tone while slightly nodding her head. Her voice was soft but cold at the same time, sending unwanted goosebumps to their spectators.
