I'm The Devil

"Wow, that was so-so, now for the next course"

Lucifer walked towards Sekhmet who was gripping tightly on her weapon and ready to attack to defend her life against Lucifer.

Lucifer smiled as he saw how determined Sekhmet was to fight him "I would have loved to see how you struggle but I don’t have all the time in the world to do that, so why don’t we skip all these charades and talk about your funeral"

Lucifer said as he raised his hands to end Sekhmet and be done with.

"WAIT"

"Now what, if you don’t give me a good reason both you and her will have the same fate"

Lucifer angrily said as it seems that they have been taking him for granted since he still let some of them live and not just ending them all.

He turned around to see a woman similar to Sekhmet but she has this mysterious aura around her and a hidden strength in her unlike Sekhmet that exudes bravery and courage to face anything in her way even when she knows she cannot come out of it victoriously.

"I am Bastet, Bast for short. I am a daughter of Ra, the Sun god and also a twin to Sekhmet. On behalf of the entire Kemet Realm, I beg you to show mercy to my sister, she is always blood headed and do things on impulse. That’s her nature, so if you let my sister go, I promise the Realm of Kemet will grant you anything you desire and more" said Bast pleading on behalf of her sister.

Aphrodite snorted when Bast finished speaking. Do they take him for a joke to think he would let someone who killed one of his own in his home for something he can get with just a snap of his fingers? She is dreaming, Lucifer just had someone killed just because his servants were being looked down upon, what’s stopping him from ripping the life right out of Sekhmet.

Lucifer smiled when hearing what Bast had to say "you know, your proposal is quite tempting but not to someone like me. You see, I believe in the saying "a life for a life".

She killed one of my own and it is befitting if I end her life to make my servant rest in peace, don’t you think?" Lucifer asked as he appeared in front of Sekhmet and took her hidden blade in a speed the Envoys couldn’t follow and stabbed it straight at her heart ending her life to never be mentioned in the history books.

Bast sighed as she saw that she couldn’t get Lucifer to change his mind. Well, she believed she tried her best but Sekhmet just couldn’t be Sekhmet for a moment and now look what it got her. @@novelbin@@

Bast didn’t say anything anymore and just stood there just looking at the lifeless body of her sister.

What happened next surprised everyone including Aphrodite as she did not expect something like that from Lucifer.

They all saw Lucifer bend down and touched the body of Sekhmet and immediately he did that, the body of Sekhmet disappeared and in her place appeared two twin blades of extraordinary appearance with extricate engravings of a fierce lioness jumping on her prey.

Lucifer took the blades and motioned for Bor to come.

"Since you stood in defense of my home, I will entrust this Blade to you, you can do with it as you see fit" said Lucifer as he handed the Blades to Bor who took it.

The moment Bor took hold of the Blades, he felt another consciousness inside the Blades which is the first of all the weapons in the entire Cosmos.

Bor admired the Blades and wondered if the blacksmith of his Realm could make some thing like this.

"Thank you my lord for this extraordinary gift and for this, I can never pay you back so I would like if you do the honour of naming my son on his nafnfesti"

Bowing down on both of his knees, Bor expressed his thanks wholeheartedly to show how much he truly loved the Blades.

This act brought scorns on the faces of the Envoys but they couldn’t say or do anything and if they were in his shoes right now they would do the same heck they would even lay down on the ground to express their thanks but since they were not Bor, they let their jealousy and envy look at him like a bootlicker and dog kisser.

"I see you are pleased with the Blades but why don’t you name it. You know Blades like that deserves a worthy name"

Hearing the words of Lucifer, Bor looked at the blade and fell into a deep contemplation. He could feel the very consciousness of the Blades and he have to say, he had fierce aura just like the one it was made from, ready to destroy anything that stands in its way and face anyone or anything that opposes the one who wields it.

"After much thought, I think it deserves no other name than The Blade of Sekhmet" Bor said while putting his blades away from the greedy eyes of the Envoys.

"Good, now since we are done here, except from these three, the rest of you SCRAM!!!"

Lucifer said as his eyes turned to a glaring red sending shivers down the spine of everyone who looked at him making them flee from the Devil’s Peak and leaving the Realm of Pangu as a whole and never to return in their lifetime.

Bast and Amaterasu were confused as to why they were still here with Bor while he chased the others away.

Lucifer smiled when he saw how the Envoys were running helter skelter "gosh, I have always wanted to do that and I got to do it, pretty amazing, right? I know you two are wondering why you are still here.

Well, that’s because you both have caught my eyes and u would hate if I were to send you away without getting to know you" said Lucifer as he appeared behind Amaterasu and ran his hands through her hairs.

Bast seeing the way Lucifer was flirting with another woman in the presence of his woman was clearly disgusted by the sight "if you are thinking of taking me as one of your woman, then I hate to disappoint you but I am already spoken for" said Bast not wanting anything to do with Lucifer.

Hearing her, Lucifer appeared behind her giving Amaterasu a chance to catch her breath and calm her mind down as this the first time a man has gotten that close to her and that from someone of his caliber.

"Well, I like something about you, that mysterious aura around you, the way you hide your strength making your opponent disregard you giving you an advantage in a fight, all that is what makes you an ideal woman and I want that, I don’t care how long I will wait to will your affection but I know one thing you are nothing going to get along with that Ptah guy, he is not worthy of a woman like you and I am" Lucifer whispered these words to Bast as she had her eyes wide open at how he knew all that.

Bast having regained control of herself after her momentarily daze from having Lucifer being so close to her moved away from him.

Lucifer didn’t pursue her and just simply snapped his fingers and they all appeared in the Hall of the Devil’s Palace.

Meanwhile the servants outside and the new goddess took their dead friend and went to perform a burial rite for her.

In the Devil’s Palace Hall

Lucifer sat on his throne as he looked at Bast "you can go back to your true form, nobody is here to see you" said Lucifer as he knew that Bast feline look is nothing but a disguise to hide her true appearance.

Seeing the surprised look on her face, Lucifer sighed and said once again "yes I know, I know that you desert gods always hide your true appearance with animals that you represent and that’s not a secret to the higher ups of every Realm, so if those guys know, then why won’t I know about it?"

Bast looked around her and saw that the two besides her aren’t surprised as she expected them to be which means they also know.

She sighed and reverted back to her true form, a beautiful black woman with green eyes and long black straight hairs and had a mysterious aura that says ’don’t mess with me’.

"I knew you would be this beautiful, I never doubt my instinct. But I won’t bother you anymore, you call all go take your rest, the servants would show you where your rooms will be, you can feel at home"

Lucifer said before he also stood up only to stop when he heard Bast calk out to him.

"You know, my father won’t sit by when he gets the news that his daughter is dead"

"Well, if he wants revenge then he is welcomed to which would only lead to his untimely death.

Lucifer said before walking away leaving a contemplating Bast.
