The Heir of Light and Dark

Chapter 3

"Finally, we can get the fun started." said Lilith as she observed Samuel's new outfit.

"How will we do that exactly?"

"Since you're new here. I would say we need to make a dramatic entrance. I think Purson would be a great start, though it will be a challenge."

"Purson?" asked Samuel as Lilith sighed,

"Purson is a demon. He's part of the Council, so a high-ranking demon. Plus, he is as honest as Lucifer. That honesty can be exploited when we get him on our side." Samuel started to wonder if he'll be able to succeed. Will he truly be able to convince a demon to join his side? He supposed that Lilith would be a great help in this.

"Alright, where is he?" Lilith smirked,

"This way, your majesty." Samuel smirked back as the two exit Lucifer's bedroom. Time to talk to Purson.

"What do you want, Lilith?" asked Purson. Purson was wearing a suit, how devilish. His eyes were a clear greyish blue. He had a dark blond hair and a serious looking face. Samuel could already appreciate his looks, he hoped his personality was equally attractive.

"I don't want anything, but he does." Lilith looked at Samuel. The three of them were in a Hell loop. They were in a hospital where a man repeatably wakes up from a near death experience. Lilith said the Hell loop was connected to Lucifer, so it was a popular attraction. Whoever Reese Getty was, he was a lucky man. Purson was leaning against a wall,

"and who are you?" Samuel stood confident as he reached his hand out,

"Samuel, John." Purson looked sceptically at Samuel, but after a short pause he shook his hand.

"Name's Purson." He said as he shook his hand. After the handshake Samuel put his hands in his pocket.

"Let's get straight to business. I wish to take over Hell." Purson laughed at Samuel when he said that.

"Seriously? Who the hell do you think you are?"

"Who do I think I am? I think I'm Samuel John, who is more than capable to rule. Your king is gone, and now there's a council? Since when does Hell care about democracy?" Purson's expression became more serious.

"We don't, but constantly fighting for a throne that is meant for an angel gets boring after two decades." Samuel chuckled,

"Two decades? Not even centuries? Sounds pathetic." Lilith looked at Samuel angrily, maybe he went too far with that. However, Samuel remained calm. Purson crossed his arms,

"It's better than being pushed around by Heaven. They are clearly too incompetent to get the Devil back."

"Why wait for Lucifer? Newsflash, he isn't coming back. Why not search for someone who is worthy? If no demon deserves the throne, then why not let a human take over?" Samuel looked deeply into Purson's eyes. No fear, complete confidence. Purson laughed,

"Maybe because humans are even more pathetic." Samuel twitched his eyes a little out of rage.

"At least they know what they're doing except for you filthy demons." Lilith wished to calm Samuel down. However, both are fully aware that if Lilith calmed him down, then it would be a sign of weakness for the two of them. Purson stopped leaning on the wall and got closer to Samuel.

"What did you just call me?" Samuel calmed down a little, no need to show wrath yet. He grinned,

"What's more important; what will you call me?" Purson smirked,
