The Lightning Devil

She had been led by the Priest into a Trap disguised as the Church, a holy Place where she was forced to do unspeakable acts with the Man who paraded around Town with the official Given Title By the Grand Church, Priest.

All in the Name of God, He used to say as he continued to slowly push himself into her.

She refused, She had after all grown up in a household that strictly followed God how could she not know what God had ordered.

But one day upon a Rough refusal by the Nun the Priest truly showed his abilities and the reason he was a priest.

He showed his Magic Powers and threatened the life of her family members.

She remembered thinking how unfair it was, she wanted to simply run away, But she couldn't cause once she had agreed to become a Nun.

She legally could not leave the Church until her ten year probation periods completed or she would be branded as a traitor of the church and would be hunted down by The Church and the Grand Empire.

Escape was not an option for her, Finally under the pressure and threat of him she finally succumbed to the Priests Advances.

She was Rewarded if she pleased the priest and severely punished if she didn't, Her punishment being starvation for three whole days while constantly having to pleasure Other 'Special Guests' that consisted of the nobles that very occasionally visited the church, merchants to established guild Adventurers.

Her life was horrible, she had contemplated multiple times of ending herself but always stopped herself as she still had a little faith left in God.

Tonight seeing the Blood Lightning she thought it was Gods way of Punishing the Sinners and in that moment, she felt her pain was finally over she felt like she was finally free again but it seemed she had been mistaken, she concluded as her eyes dimmed slightly and she felt completely exhausted passing out the floor knowing she will have to wake up tomorrow and see that same Priest do it to yet another Innocent Nun.

.....

Beyond the a wide stretches of land at the very center of the borders that expanded almost all the way around the Grand Styx Continent stood a wide and Grand city with Huge Mansions, Bustling shops even at the Middle Night, Gaurds actively gaurding the streets with not a single piece of filth to be found on the, carriages constantly moving through the plethora of brick laid paths that were lit up by multiple street lamps, This was The Capital Of The Aurelian Empire

Within this City Two Buildings Stood Out, One was a Grand Castle so huge it stretched out for Miles, White Marble engrained on it floors and walls Grand Paintings of Historical people, Decorations even The top Wealthy people in the Kingdom would not be able own, Gaurd's in Silver Armour Filling the place, Deployed throughout the Hall's of the Ginormous Palace ensuring not a single fly can slip inside or outside without being found out.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

The Other Building was The Church Of Light, Although this place was not as Huge or grand as The Castle where the Royal Family lived it easily dwarfed the other Mansions owned by Nobles In the Capital, This was Mainly because of The large Sums of Money, Gold and Jewelry donated to The Church by Various Forces within this Vast Empire.

Inside a Dim Room with a wide bed with white netting coverings all around the bed laid a women wearing a simple yet embrodiered white night gown peacefully sleeping on the bed, her hair was platnium Blond that flowed like waves on the pillow that she laid upon, her delicate face peacefully sleeping when suddenly her eyes shot open as she sat up almost reflexsively recthing.

She could not hold herself back as she puked on the floor besides the bed, when she was was done however her state did not seem to get better he eyes were blood shot with red viens visible in her pure whites forming a deadly contrast to her Light Blue eyes, She Gasphed heavily recalling the Prophesy she had just had.

Blood and Bodies... Everywhere.

She shivered remembering it.

A Being Shrouded in Darkness with a single Horn and red drawing all over the Left part of Its body wreaking Havoc Throughout the Inner Castle, killing anybody that came infront of him.

His Pupils were completely Bloodshot with a single Long Horns on the left side of its head Radiating a Crimson Hue, Red Markings covering the entire left side of his body, red lightning flashing everwhere, each strike brutally ripping through soldier after soldier, Church officials she had thought to be almost invinsible existences Lying Dead with Mutilated bodies.

The right side of its body however was shrouded in complete Darkness Except for its eyes that seemed to been died in crimson.

The Last she could remember was the eyes of the being staring directly at her, Its eyes almost like a Crimson blackhole filled to the Brim with Wrath without a single Pupil in sight, All she could remember after that was seeing a Lightning rush towards before Piercing her head before she woke up.

The Wide wooden doors with Golden Engravings shot open as Men flooded in wearing Heavy metalic armours With the Golden Cross on There Chestplates weilding long swords that were drawn ready for battle.

The light produced from the Candles lit outside in the hall piercing into the darkness of the room with its warm Orange Hue providing visibility to the inside of the room where they all saw the Saintess gasphing for breath reeeling from seemingly some huge shock.

There was a Sensor set up all around The Saintess Room that detected movement with Guards outside the room on the ready to be deployed the second the sensors where set of.

Afterall the Church wished to protect there one and only Saintess Within the Entire Styx Continent, It is a well know Fact By the Higher Officials that where ever the Saintess gets to sleep she will be able to have a Prophetic Dream about the future events that will take place in that Place, It could be a Hundread years in the future or as soon as the next day.

The Saintess looked up at the soldiers staring at them with her bloodshot eyes as she slowly calmed her nerves before speaking out an order to Soldiers to look for Anything abnormal that took place in the Kingdom.

The thing that scared the Saintess to the Core was not the brutal killings and destruction but rather she felt The Overwhelmingly Intense Wrath of that being shrouded in Darkness revealing only a mere silouet.

She felt pain, she felt the Pain that was hidden beneath all that Wrath and Most Importantly she wanted to know what would The Great Empire and The Church Have to do to Incite such Wrath.

She loved her Beloved Church and she couldnt bear to see all of these good souls devoted to god being killed of like Chicken.

So she Prayed... She prayed all night once the gaurds left and things calmed down(Although she knew this was only just a mere downtime before the Emperor found out about the way she reacted while 'Dreaming', She prayed to meet the person behind the Darkness and the Wrath.

By day Break The News of the Town experiencing the Blood Lightning had already spread and a official Arrest warrant for anybody with Horns was issued throughout the kingdom and Many of The churches Soldiers were sent out to Erons Town To look for this man that the Saintess described would be the Beginning of the End For the Church and The Empire, 'The Lightning Demon' is what the Man in the vision was Dubbed as.
