âWhat did he tell you?â Mykel sat on the chair next to Beldathielâs bed after he wore the suit that Zherlthsh gave him.
âBefore I can answer your question, I should ask you why you make a deal with him?â Beldathiel asked as she stared at Mykel with her lazy eyes. âI thought you were planning on getting rid of him, but why suddenly have you changed your mind?â
Zherlthsh and Vixelleth furrowed their eyebrows and judgingly stared at Mykel from the other side of the bed.
âWho said that I changed my mind?â Mykel asked back. âThis is a part of my plan,â Mykel answered as he stared at the three of them.
âThen tell us your real intention, Mykel,â Vixelleth said, and she already looked pissed.
âItâs always the same as before, bringing every single one of you together,â Mykel answered simply as he stared at Vixelleth. âThe problem is, it wonât be easy to bring her to our side since you already know what she is,â
âYou need to reconsider your plan then,â Beldathiel replied. âBecause my father told me on the next breakout, theyâre going to send everyone down to this world,â
Mykel looked at Beldathiel for a few seconds and then he started smiling and chuckling.
âHe wanted them to believe that,â Mykel said as he stared blankly at the bed. âThere will be no next breakout and he knows it. Even if there is, he wouldnât dare to make the same mistake again, not after knowing she has invested so many things in this world,â
The three of them looked so confused since they had no idea what Mykel was talking about.
âYouâre trying to say that the meeting between all the demon kings was just an act? To make them believe that they will take over this world?â My father isnât a fool to fall for that,â Beldathiel said as she stared at Mykel in the eye as if she was insulted by his words.
âI didnât say that, but at the same time, you canât underestimate his skill of deceiving people. They all followed him because of that, and he even could convince his siblings to follow his cause that ended up dead for believing in him,â Mykel replied and stared back at Beldathiel.
âWhat you know about him is nothing compared to what the Gods know about him. You despise the Gods and yet you only hate them for what you believe instead of what you see and hear for yourself,â Mykel said with his arms crossed and stared at them with a serious expression.
âThat applies to them as well. They hate us for what we are, our existence alone is enough to make them hate us,â Vixelleth replied.
âThatâs because you both are playing with the same toy,â Mykel responded as he stood up and stared at the blue sky above him. âMortals are your playthings, you, the Gods. You guys hate each other because you just donât want to share it or let each other play with it peacefully,â
Beldathiel squinted her eyes as she stared at Mykel. He reminded her of Lucifer, and she couldnât help but keep thinking that he and Lucifer were the same person.
âAre you trying to make the exact same move as him? Listening to your words, it portrays what heâs doing right now with the Gods,â Zherlthsh said with suspicion written all over her face.
âMaybe,â Mykel said as he walked toward the table and stared at it. âBut Iâm not going to use you or anyone as a tool as to what heâs doing right now,â
âHow can we believe in your words?â Vixelleth asked and stared at Mykel from the corner of her eyes.
âDoes that even matter? You already belong to me now, the three of you,â Mykel replied as he stared at them with a smirk.
The blue sky turned dark, and the sound of thunder rumblings could be heard in the distance. Vixelleth was furious, and not just her but Zherlthsh as well, and she even showed off her sharp claws.
âIf you keep using violence as an answer you wonât get far and find the truth. That what makes you and the Gods are different and itâs the same reason why they despise you,â Mykel said as he casually sat down on the table.
Beldathiel got off her bed and slowly walked toward Mykel which made Vixelleth and Zherlthsh a bit confused. She then stood right in front of Mykel and stared down at him with lazy eyes of her.
âBring me to them, the Gods that came down here back then,â Beldathiel said calmly.
Mykel smiled and nodded his head, he then summoned Loki to Earth so he could bring them to Niflheim. At first, Vixelleth and Zherlthsh didnât want to go, but after knowing Beldathiel would be alone, they couldnât stop worrying about her and decided to join them.
The hall was so quiet because nobody was there except them. Loki told Mykel that Hel was busy as the new head of Death Arcana and had to take care of the newly joined members.
âHera is on the other side of the castle, I will notify her,â Loki said, but before he could teleport, he tilted his head and looked at the door. âLooks like that would be unnecessary,â
Hera entered the hall and she smiled when she saw Mykel and the demon princesses.
âThis is the first time I see a demon enter a Godâs world,â Hera said as she walked toward them.
âWe donât to be here as well, you donât have to say it like that,â Vixelleth replied as she stared at Hera cynically.
Hera looked a bit surprised, but then she chuckled as she shook her head. âIâm not saying it in a bad way, itâs just something that I would never expect, but I should know that something like this would happen since this is Mykelâs plan anyway,â Hera explained as she sat down on her seat.
âI want to see every one of them, the ones that belong to Mykel,â Beldathiel said as she stared at Hera and Loki.
Hera and Loki looked at each other for and were a bit confused by Beldathielâs request.
Mykel chuckled quietly as he walked to his throne. âIt canât be helped,â Mykel said as he sat down. âLetâs bring everyone here,â Mykel continued as he stared at Hera and Loki.
The three of them called all the Gods and summoned them to Niflheim. It only took them a minute until the hall was crowded with Gods and Goddesses. Beldathiel, Zherlthsh, and Vixelleth were shocked by the amount of Gods and Goddesses in the hall. Their presence was so overwhelming that it was sickening to see and smell.
They werenât asking why they were summoned. Nobody was complaining, and they all just sat down on their usual benches while Dionysus entertained them and filled the empty tables with wine and fresh fruits.
âI never thought you demons would come here,â Keres said as she walked toward the table.
All the Gods and Goddesses were surprised when they heard it. Their gazes were pointed at the three of them, and they were curious about why there were demons in Niflheim. They didnât show any hostility toward those three because they already knew about Mykelâs plan of changing the game and they already knew about their existence.
âNow that everyone is present, what are you going to do next, Beldathiel?â Mykel asked as he stared at her from his throne.
Beldathiel walked up to the throne while everyone watched her silently. She then turned around to look at all of them, and then she took out her dice.
âLetâs see who will live, me or them?â Beldathiel said as she stared at Mykel.
