Becoming the most famous exorcist and a phenomenal celebrity was never in Leon's plan. He joined the reality show Exorcism Live only to inform the public of all the misconceptions about demons and exorcism, and to raise awareness about the alarmingly increasing incidents of demonic possession all around the world. He did not expect to be crowned as the "most attractive man of the year" and the "hottest priest in the world" once the show went viral. And he certainly didn't anticipate that Satan himself would become his biggest fan. Leon: 27 years old Azazil (Satan, Angel Lockwood): millions of years old (but appears to be 21 years old) Disclaimer: The exorcism rituals, traditions, and the Catholic Church in this novel are fictional and do not reflect or represent reality. Please treat the world setting in this story as a parallel/alternative universe. ********* Updates every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 am Pacific Time. Happy ending eventually.
