The Heir of Light and Dark

Chapter 5

Samuel had made it back to Purson and Lilith. He walked over to the two demons and gave the ring of Veritas to Purson in quite an aggressive way.

"Here is your stupid ring." Purson took the ring and looked at it. He then looked at Samuel and nodded,

"Thank you." Samuel put his hands in his pockets. He was glad he decided to wear a black suit with a red shirt, the blood wasn't as visible then. He smirked and looked at Purson as he said,

"Not so much a mere human now, am I?" Purson rolled his eyes,

"I have to admit that it is impressive that you've beaten a demon. But Valefar is by far not the strongest demon in Hell."

"Then who is? I'd love to give them a good throttle." Lilith and Purson looked at each other, almost as if they were asking each other who should answer it first. In the end, Purson answered,

"Mazikeen is Hell's best torturer."

"And my daughter." Added Lilith. Samuel looked at Lilith and raised his eyebrow,

"You have a child?" Lilith rolled her eyes,

"Yes, demons can procreate, big news. It's not like I care for her in the first place." She said sarcastically. Samuel didn't really know what to reply. It's not like he cared in the first place.

"So where can I find this Mazikeen then?"

"On Earth, with Lucifer." Answered Purson once again. Samuel looked at him.

"You have got to be kidding me." Guess Mazikeen was off the list. Although even Samuel had doubts about his skills if Mazikeen was the best torturer of Hell. So instead, Samuel changed the topic.

"Anyways, I do believe we have a deal?" Purson nodded,

"Of course, you have my loyalty. I'll help you become the King of Hell in no time." Purson grinned. Even a demon like Purson has their cocky moments. Lilith said sarcastically,

"I'm sure his charming personality would help." Samuel looked offended in an overly dramatic and obviously sarcastic way.

"I don't think Hell cares much about shitty personalities. So why should I care about my own? It's not like I'll get punished for having a bad personality. I don't have a cell for that." Purson couldn't help but add to it,

"And it's not like people get punished for that. It's all about that guilt." And now Samuel knows that about Hell too, interesting. Lilith crossed her arms and rolled her eyes,

"Men." She commented in an irritated tone. Although both Samuel and Purson knew that the comment wasn't serious. Purson corrected Lilith,

"Still a demon sweetheart." He then put his hand on Samuel's shoulder. He looked at the hand, he was not amused. This is precisely why he shouldn't be called 'kid'. "Regardless. Your annoying personality might be annoying as hell. But that's precisely why you can be a good King of Hell. You've shown to have the strength necessary, by sadly enough not permanently dying. I think you truly are an Heir of Dark, the new Prince of Darkness."

"The anti-Christ." Added Lilith with a playful smirk. Samuel rolled his eyes, although he was lightly amused. Purson continued,

"I think you have a chance to truly rule this place." It was a nice thing to say, but that's exactly why Samuel didn't believe it. Lilith finally ended the conversation,

"and with that disgusting bromance, we're ending the day. Come on, you need to get back to the Council room. And I still had something I had to do before I found you. See, no plot convenience here." Samuel and Lilith walked away from the hell loop.
