The Devil's way of business

Chapter 27 : For Hell's benefit

Sally looks at the stars above her as she wonders about her life ' It's wonderful , I wonder what people will think of this sky when they see it ' she looks up recalling that it was only clear because there was little light pollution adding with the clear atmosphere .

' If god wasn't around would I see other things too ? ' Sally wonders if that's why God hasn't exerted enough influence over the past centuries , allowing more space for humans to improve instead of having faith in a powerful god .

' Is that why Karma was able to fill up the vaccuum ? he did have a lot of merits despite his sins and it's not like God didn't do anything bad after all why would he need to have the son take the place to be crucified '

The three angels visited Lilith as she faced them " What is it ? " " The Count plans to start revelation " Lilith's eyes widened as she thought she still had time " It seems we don't have to fulfill the promise anymore as your children will burn along with the irredeemable sinners in hell "

' Dang I thought I had time ? ' " And are you trying to tell me because you want to laugh at me " Lilith said with narrowed eyes and an angry expression .

" Do not misunderstand we do not have such intention however the fact that someone is going to start revelation means that god has plans and he has told us to inform you of such "

' Why does he want ? Me to burn together with my children ? ' " Why is revelation starting ? " " It already has started however it stopped because Abaddon was imprisoned in hell by the fallen and The Count has a plan to do it " ' This is sounding more and more dangerous for them at least will I be forcibly sent to hell then ? '

" We do not know what our god's will is we are merely messengers " " Dogs to that bastard of course " the three angels left her as she tried to find a way to call Karma eventually " Hello ? " " You bastard what did you do ? "

" Didn't think I'd get here didn't you , did you call because you felt like your children were in danger ? " " Yes I pushed this idea out but to think you'd get to this point " " No worries I'll make sure to spare Lebo and Risana and their colleagues but just them and Beelzebub and his subordinates "

Lilith's hands trembled as she wondered what she should do , as all her plans to save her children doesn't even work because they still hold the sin in their blood .

...

" Lucifer dear you read the bible right ? " " Yes I did and I'm worried " " Of course you are " Lilith and Lucifer had this discussion a long time ago " Eternal damnation , separation from god and the eternal flames burning all of us forever we wouldn't want that type of bad ending "

" I know but I don't even know what to do I lost all my vestiges as an angel because I fell the hardest " " Of course you would that's why it was the most humiliating defeat for you " " You don't seem worried ? " 

" Of course , I'm not I have a plan , make me stronger I will use the power you grant me to open a door behind the man upstairs to your niece and nephews for a new life " " How can I guarantee you wouldn't do it ? " 

Lilith smiles and opens her palm " We shake on it with a deal where I am granted power and I bring every demon out of hell " " You seem confident " " Of course I'll tell the others too I'm sure that false angel would agree and even lend me some help "

Lilith seductively trails her fingers through Lucifer while he knew what she was doing " You don't have to be so close to do that " " Hm you're no fun worry not though I'll make sure my children will be able to leave hell and avoid eternal damnation "

They both made the deal to lend Lilith power in exchange for having her to investigate or search for a way to take them away from hell " I didn't actually had the hope that I could do it of course , since I am already going to be sent to eternal damnation either way may as well make some memories where I managed to live life "
