Chapter 121: A Hellish Meal

Chapter 121: A Hellish Meal

We found the house and rung the doorbell.

“Honey, go get it. It could be Mr. Gabriel.”

“Fine…”

A portly man opened the door then he froze.

“Hi Dad.”

“E-Erica?”

She flinched.

“Sorry for running off, I-“

He hugged her.

“Honey, I was so worried. Mr. Gabriel said you were with people that could defend you, but I was so scared. Please don’t do that again.”

“Darling, who are you talking to?”

“Erica is back!”

“SHE IS?!”

A woman ran over and hugged Erica.

“Hi Mom.”

“You got a lot of explaining to do, Missy.”

Then the woman smiled.

“But for now, let’s go inside… who’s your friend?”

“She’s the person that kept me safe.”

“That’s wonderful. Come in um…”

“Rose.”

“Ms. Rose, come on in, I was just preparing dinner.”

“Thank you.”

“It’s no problem.”

I entered the home and saw a kid.

“Hey, Daniel.”

“Lady, get away from my sister.”

“???”

I was confused and so was everyone else.

“Daniel, she’s a friend of mine.”

“Erica, my friend’s saying she’s a monster.”

“Is that your friend?”

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

I pointed to the woman hovering above the kid’s head.

“Rose?”

“How can you see her?!”

The kid was shaken and so was the woman.

“It quite simple, I have a high magic density, so I can see things most others cannot.”

I smiled.

“That includes spiritual beings that want to hide themselves.”

The woman sighed and revealed her visage causing Erica’s parents to jump, but Erica merely moved her hand to her waist and narrowed her eyes.

“I was told you were observant little lizard, but I didn’t expect that.”

“So, what is a demon doing here?”

“Quite simple. I was looking for you.”

“Why?”

“My master wants you to evolve.”

“Oh?”

“Yes, he sent me to assist you in your tasks.”

“And these people?”

“Well, of course, I can’t just let people who’ve seen a level 864 demon live.”

“Ah, well that is quite convenient.”

“Hm?”

“It’s so convenient, because if I kill you…”

Her smile faded and her eyes widened.

“That’s two more requirements completed.”

“Y-you’re kidding right?”

“Nope, kill a demon, and kill a 700. I was so confused on how I would do that, but lo and behold, you not only show up, but you threaten my friend.”

“**** this, I’m not dying to a brat like you.”

“We’ll see about that. Erica!”

“Yes?”

“Guard them from any stray blasts and tell Gabriel to let me handle this.”

“Got it. Come on!”

“I can’t let you le- GH.”

“Keep an eye on the one who wants to kill you.”

“Heh, too weak.”

She punted me and I flew through the roof, coughing out blood.

She launched and grabbed my throat.

“I am the Demon General Asmodeus; do you really think that you can kill me?”

“You’re rather low leveled for a general.”

“Hah, you are bold, kid. I’ll give you that.”

She kneed me and launched me back to the ground.

“You are pathetic, this is your requirements for 200? I’m surprised, I thought that you’d be stronger if that were the case.”

“You’re right, it is ridiculous, but I’m not wholy incapable.”

“Oh?”

“FEAR.”

“What? … OH WHAT THE ****?”

“Surprised?”

“Is this what people see when we scare them?!”

“He he. Maybe. Maybe not.”

“You are terrifying. No matter, you are still weak.”

“Hmmm… where would be the best place to eat?”

“You’re thinking about food right- GH!“

I slashed her stomach, causing blood to drip on my hand. I licked it off and shivered. It was delightful.

“What… what the ****?!”

She was in shock of what I just did, but as expected of someone in her league, she recovered and charged me.

Obviously, I couldn’t just let a morsel like that leave.

“Hm, ooh I know. What of your prison?”

Her eyes widened as I grabbed her hand and warped us.

“W-where did you take us?!”

I smiled as the hell fire ignored me but began to assault her.

“Isn’t it obvious?”

“How?”

“We’re in Hell.”

“How did you bring us here?!”

“I’ve been here before, so I thought…”

I smiled deeper.

“What better place than here to have the highest-level meal I’ve had before?”

She blanched as she looked at me and realized what she was facing. In the delightful mode I maintained, I was a monster. Pure and unfiltered savagery.

“I’ll kill you, then I’ll find my way out of here!!!”

“Awe, you still have hope.”

I said this from behind her.

“How did you-“

“Your perception is slowing, Asmodeus. Just give up and be my food.”

I shoved my hand in her gut, and she gasped in pain.

“Ah, done so early?”

“Never!”

She slashed, but the hellfire was getting to her. Her moves were slower and slower, and to her, I got faster and faster.

“You know, I love my meals perfectly cooked.”

“**** you, you monster!!!”

Her swings were so entertaining, and her pain was apparent from her face.

“Ah, such vulgarity. Now just be my meal.”

I smashed her throat and impaled her heart.

Then I ate to my heart’s content. Such power and such vibrancy from an 800. I should get more!

I looked to the left and saw a small demon shivering, so I smiled with my mouth stained in demon blood.

“Don’t worry, I’m quite full.”

And with that, I warped to Earth.
