The Lost Morningstar

🌷Chapter 13🌷

◇Lucifer POV◇

"That's all our soldiers ready to fight my King."

"Thank you Corvus I'm hoping you gave them a speech that they could die because I'm not good with keeping the team morale high."

"I'll try." He runs off prepping the truth for the deaths, in reality they are just pawns helping me reach my goal so in my eyes they are disposable. This Jade Temple doesn't seem fully guarded from the exterior in fact it seems all together abdonden with weeds and other forms of greenery growing all around the place but I can guess a man with such calibre wouldn't be shy to hide traps so that a something to be cautious about.

"Good news I just got off talking to Troye and things are going well for them back home however they might give us a hand or two if you wish, Axel thinks the Elf soldiers won't make it far and we'll be outnumbered." Salem says approaching my side.

"Tell them not worry if we need them we'll call for them. I can't have no one looking over Hell because we both know someone will get greedy and try their luck at conquering the throne." The last thing I need on my mind is a rebellion against me especially in these trying times.

"I mean your father could-"

"Don't be stupid Salem you and I both know better then to let that man become on charge probably convert the place and make everyone worship him." Salem places a hand on my shoulder in comfort.

"Listen you yourself just said that the army is disposable and will most likely die due to their inexperience on the battlefield so having our strongest allies join us would only make sense and your father will stay in his lane upstairs but from time to time will check in to see how Hell is doing." I still find the idea behind stupid but maybe we need more experienced players. "I'll do the talking so you can fill in Troye and Axel whilst not being distracted by your father."

"Fine but when we return and things are different-"

"I'll hold myself accountable as will your father and you can punish me if you want my King." He leaves with a wink to inform my father as I inform Troye and Axel that I need them within a split second after a portal opens and out the two come.

"Ruling Hell and ruling vampires two very different things and I quiet honestly Lucy don't know how you feel with their incompetence." Axel and I exchange handshakes as I big Troye too.

"Ignore him he's just cranky that I wasn't giving him blood he's getting s bit chubby." Troye pokes his tummy.

"I am not fat." Both better a playful argument that would be amusing to listen to if we had the time.

"Listen long story short there's a man who controls emerald creatures that do his bidding and dirty whilst he does fuck all inside there, Corvus the Clown has told me that this man is not to be messed with as his magic rivals my own plus Salem's." We all know when Salem was bored pregnant with the twins he decided to master the arts of every magic known to us and he succeeded making him one of the powerful figures in Hell and essentially my power equal. "All we need is to find my mother escape with her and then kill this mystery man before he can do more harm."

"Sounds relatively easy enough and I highly doubt these Elves told you all the truths probably missed out some important details that will no doubt bite us in our ass." Axel might gave a point. "I'll gladly torture Corvus you of course if you allow me."

"Elves are a proud nation lying does nothing to them besides bring shame to them so if this is all they told you then they are telling the truth and if we do encounter something unknown to us then it most likely was unknown to them at the time. So there won't be no torturing." Troye scolds Axel as I believe the Dragon hybrid plus Corvus knows the price of betrayal is death.
