The Lost Morningstar

🌷Chapter 38🌷

◇Lucifer POV◇

Our goal was clear we needed to prevent the rift from opening by killing Cersei and Cerventes, it's easy said then done but with a buffed Salem on our side as well as Leonardo I think we stand a fighting chance.

Our army stand with us in this crusade so we have the added man power although the Chaos Realm creatures have awoken from their sleep giving us a bigger obstacle to face, we don't know exactly what the creatures are but it's for certain that they'll be used as a mean to stop us from getting close.

We all wait on the outskirts of the land waiting for our scout team led by Levithan to report back, in the mean time it gives the rest of the us a few moments to go over the plan.

The soldiers on foot will take care of securing the entrance of the castle clearing a path for Salem and Leonardo to enter, the soldiers will be responsible for taking out the Chaos creatures and distracting them for us to sneak in. Cerventes will try to stop us but that's where me and Leonardo come in. Obviously I won't be no match for Cerventes in his titan form but as long as I get a few punches in we're even Leonardo will take on Cerventes as Salem elevates to the higher floor where Cersei awaits. We know Cersei will have the highest form of protection but I have my own tricks to deal with whatever comes my way but it's up to Salem to face his past and stop her from opening the rift.

Salem has one chance so all the pressure is on him tonight but if anyone can save the realms it's definitely my dove. He's already experiencing the titan power within him not to mention how godly he looks, eyes electrified blue and his silver hair slowly darkening to a cold steel colour with hints of purple thrown in there for colour, all I can say is we stand a healthy chance at winning.

"Our scouts have arrived." Leonardo informs me as I see Levithan and Asmodeus come back to us.

"Any news?" I ask.

"Only bad. The creatures are being used as a barrier to stop us and from Asmodeus tells me they're being mind controlled to serve Cerventes." We knew this was going to happen. "Another thing is the castle is under magic forecfield that stops anyone from getting in or out so if you have any chance at stopping the rift from opening you're gonna need to break open that forcefiled."

"Sounds like it's gonna be a pain in the ass to get in." Salem says. "Any ideas on how to break through?"

"All we need is enough energy to burst through the barrier and with that going on you should have a few seconds to quickly enter." Asmodeus says. "But once inside you won't be able return unless you destroy the main source which happens to be Cersei."

"Very well whilst the distractions go ahead and commence I'll open the barrier and we'll head inside as you guys continue the battle outside." Salem tells the soldiers. "Then it's time Levi, Asmodeus take the army and attack." The army gather their weapons and start approaching the castle with the rest of us following.

"Don't over think, you got this." I tell Salem trying to calm him down. "I won't let you carry this burden alone, we're in this together."

"Of course." He smiles softly then regains his battle face as we reach closer to the castle. Various amounts of creatures seem to smell our arrival and already come at us.

"ATTACK!" The soldiers charge into battle on my orders slaying the unknown creatures that take different forms, some of our men get taken out whilst others fight till their last breathe killing as they fall.

One of the flying creatures heads in my direction and before it gets the drop on me and I jump on its back forcing it to fly upwards so that I could see the higher levels of the castle, the beast doesn't make it easy for me as it twist and turns trying to cause me to fall but a quick stab in the head allows me to control it for a few seconds before it sky rockets to the ground. I couldn't see Cersei but I definitely felt a huge source of power come from those upper floors giving me the answer to her whereabouts.
