The King and the Overlord: Infernal Bonds

Chapter 16

We will focus on one of the most famous yet dangerous places in the pentagram city, the territories of the Vees, to be more specific, the enormous tower where the group of Overlords performed their daily routines. The three Overlords were inside a meeting room whose windows overlooked a huge pond of mechanical sharks.

Vox: Very well, Velvette, will you tell me the reason you decided to gather us here?

Valentino: Make it quick, I need to finish shooting my movie. Ever since Angel refused to participate, I had to delay it to find a new actor.

Velvette: Look, idiots, the reason I called this meeting is because something of interest to us has happened. It's likely that Carmilla Carmine is dating Lucifer Morningstar.

Vox: What?! How is that possible?

Valentino: Who would've thought? The king is back to his old ways, that's interesting.

Vox: Are you sure about this?

Velvette: Obviously, I'm sure. And there's another surprise too, they had a daughter.

Vox: Don't confuse me, bitch. What makes you think that?

Velvette: Two days ago, when I went to the mall, I ran into a demon who had the perfect features to be my new model, thanks to a certain idiot who killed the previous one.

Valentino: I already apologized, and I didn't kill him. I just dismembered him.

Velvette: The point is, when I tried to take her with me, the little princess of hell showed up and threatened me for touching her sister. Then Carmine shows up to tell me to stay away from them, and obviously, I didn't. But that girl told me not to yell at her mother.

Valentino: So Carmilla Carmine had a daughter with the king of hell. How old is she?

Velvette: The same age as the princess.

Vox: Then she's adopted, and I think I know who she is.

On the center of the table, he showed a frame where Emily's image could be seen.

Velvette: It's her.

Vox: Three days ago, I noticed something that had hit the pride ring, so I went to see what it was, and I found this little angel flying towards the hotel.

Valentino: Is heaven declaring war on us?

Velvette: We should've prepared as I told those damn bastards.

Vox: I doubt it's that, otherwise, we'd all be dead by now. Heaven would send their entire army if they were to declare war on us. If we want to control this place, we need to have something important to the king of hell in our hands.

Valentino: You still hold a grudge against him for that time, don't you?

Vox: He dared to humiliate me in front of everyone! Does he really think he can distance himself from all the affairs of this city just to come back and take control of everything we've done? And the issue with Carmilla, I doubt a relationship like that just happened overnight.

Velvette: The bitch must have taken advantage after the meeting to get close to him. If she had already helped the daughter, why not support the father in another way?

Valentino: This means that now she has more power than all of us just by dating Lucifer.

Vox: Yes, that's why we have to do something about it.

Velvette: Like what?

Vox: First, we need something that forces Lucifer to kneel before us, and we have new targets to do so.
