Chapter 23 23: Demons Are Nasty Creatures!
Asmodea frowned, "Then you better get started on your homework. I may be able to fight off a single angel, so should this Nyssa and Lauryn. But if many angels come, I do not know what might happen. I believe nothing serious will happen since the agreement is still in effect, but one should always expect the unexpected."
Aureal was standing on top of the school rooftop, debating with herself. She had accidentally met this Lord of Lust this morning, and he was not at all what she expected.
"Demons are always nasty creatures, they would sooner stab you in the front or back if you let your guard down. They don't care about humans or us, only for themselves and who they serve."
Aureal voiced out loud, it was just one of the many things angels told younglings about the dangers of demons.
However, this Lord of Lust she met, he seemed genuinely worried about her, he did stop the pesky humans attacking her, not that she couldn't have taken care of them herself with her Warhammer or fists.
Though he may have felt lust for her, he seemed unwilling to act upon his desires, not at all like a demon.
She had fought demons before in the last war between the two kinds, but she never stopped to actually think about them.
"I must carry out my task, should he prove menacing just like all demons, then I must eliminate him," Aureal told herself vehemently. However, she couldn't help but feel curious about this new Ruler of Sin, as well as his kindness.
--------
Alex drove himself and Asmodea home that day. He wasn't sure how Nyssa would react towards Asmodea... Or Lauryn for that matter.
Alex's mind wandered as he drove.
'Does Aureal mean me harm? She did act like an angel, not that I know how they act. What could be in this book? Asmodea called it the Grimoire, though she definitely didn't seem like she was happy around it.' Alex's thoughts tore at each other, none gaining dominance during the drive.
Minutes passed during the bearable silence of the drive home. Alex paid attention to his driving, while Asmodea rubbed his knee.
Wanting her to stop, Alex said, "Asmodea, please let me drive, who knows what kind of accident we can get into. At least wait until we get home."
Asmodea replied in kind, "You do know that I am a Succubus, and therefore, sexual experiences are always in mind? You are an Incubus, my male counterpart, you should begin to think like an Incubus if you want to rule..."
While they bantered back and forth, they arrived at Alex's home. As they walked to his front door, it opened up with Nyssa at the base.
She was in a skirt and long-sleeved shirt, she also was sucking on a lollipop which she talked around.
"I'm happy you're back love, I've missed you even if it was only for a short while!" Reluctantly turning her attention to Asmodea, Nyssa lazily said, "And you must be Asmodea..." While Alex didn't notice, the two women are eying each other, sizing each other up.
"Yes, and you must be Nyssa, I have heard so much about you. From our lord here and your mother." Asmodea spoke with a sweet albeit indifferent tone.
"While you two are busy getting to know each other, I'm going to take a look at this book," Alex said as he held his Grimoire upwards.
He walked between the two demons and headed straight for a quiet room. He desperately wanted to see the mysteries of this book, why Asmodea felt so uneasy near it.
He noticed that Nyssa shifted uncomfortably when he passed next to her, like something was off. Perhaps the Grimoire had the same effect on Nyssa as it did on Asmodea.
When Alex had disappeared into the house, both women regained their usual vigor and gave each other icy stares.
Nyssa was the first to speak, "Just know that I am Alex's fiancee, you are just a vassal. My fiancee and I are royalty and should mingle only with each other."
Asmodea, still smiling said, "You are just like your mother. You really are proud of your arranged marriage. It is like you are proud of being married to my lord."
"And why not? It is my nature after all. You however are a full Succubus, and all you ever think about is how next you are going to fuck my fiancee. I will admit, you are attractive... Enough to catch the eye of my fiancee, but no more. You may have been the favorite of the previous Lord of Lust, but you are but a relic to Alex. I shall take my everlasting place next to Alex in bed."
"I would not expect you to be so... Greedy." Asmodea insulted, "You want anything and everything about my lord all to yourself. I love him just as much as you do, and you will not be the only one to take a place in my lord's bed."
"You dare compare me to those disgusting excuses for demons? I am simply expressing my birthright as the daughter of Pride. Must I demonstrate my power? I may be very young, but I am a white demon, I have been impeccably trained, and I will not stand another insult." Threatened Nyssa, her eyes flashing violently.
"Yes, I do compare you to those pathetic demons. The lines between Sin are very... Thin. Wrath and Envy barely coexist. Lust, Greed, and Gluttony are often compared. Pride often takes on Wrath as its face. Envy and Greed are often at war. And yes... Greed and Pride's boundaries are almost invisible." Asmodea said, clearly goading Nyssa.
"I am very skilled in combat as well. Try me if you like." As she said her challenge, Asmodea put up her hands in a defensive position, her tail arching e a scorpion.
"Slander, is what you are saying, you insult mine and your people. Have you no shame?"
"No one can live peacefully if they cannot learn to laugh at themselves as well as others. I mean what I said, and it is very much true. And besides, I'm a Succubus, we have no shame."
