A Demon's Heart.

Chapter thirty: A Purpose....?

-"It was destroyed, by what appeared to be a demon.... He said two other demons were looking for it, and then one of them appeared, it looked like two worked together against the one who destroyed it...." Aliana blushed when remembering the particular demon, Asleroth.

-"I knew it...." Álgerus sighed. Aliana looked skeptic. "It is happening, the Keys are awakening once again, and nobody can stop them.... You spoke to them, and you saw the book's destruction.... How was it destroyed?"

-"It was burned until nothing could be recoverable." Aliana said.

-"Good.... I'm connecting the dots know, you should know the truth.... Aliana" He took a deep breath. "You are an Ankhel. The only one who could open the gates of Hesade, with your blood.... A demon huntress, being hunted by demons.... They will try and kill you...."

Aliana's eyes became blurry, her tears were warm on her now cold skin, she could not believe what was happening, and she always thought everyone was joking when they called her an angel.... She thought it was because of her looks.... An Ankhel....

-"But...." Aliana stopped crying to hear, as Álgerus was taking out a handkerchief out of his pocket, he wiped Aliana's tears away and said: "It bugs me now the fact that two of them didn't took the chance to kill you.... One of them was only for the book, not you.... It means the one who burned the book, not only knows your true nature.... But.... It's probably willing to protect you." Álgerus looked puzzled by this for a while, the only word who went out of his mouth was.... "Why?" Aliana started smiling a bit, and blushing when she finally stopped crying....

-"I am an Ankhel, I have a purpose.... Like everyone else.... If it is my destiny to fulfill it.... So be it. But...." Álgerus took again his pen to write.... "I won't let those filthy assholes to even touch me or kill me!!" Álgerus.... Decided not to.... Write that down.... Not entirely....
