Heracles. "Now that i think about it.
Astaroth should've sensed his arrival before it happens, it would have been for his own good..."
Beazly, was completely focused while his master was telling him the long hidden history for more than two hours straight!
Heracles. "Well...It could be a lot of reasons why they didn't sense his arrival before it actually does,
I mean, even myself didn't sense anything at that particular moment...Because the fight i was having took every bit of concentration i had."
The master suddenly stops talking for a moment...The aura arround him became a bit different!
Beazly finally recalls that, up til now Heracles haven't mentioned even one thing about himself since the war has started!
"...How did it end up?". He asks
Heracles. "...The war?
We lost...Or I should say, we won?
I was fighting for the other side...Anyways, I haven't realized that it's more than two hours of me telling you stories of the past. I may be really nostlagic about it..."
The question Beazly asked was about the battle Heracles himself was in, but the latter either purposefully dodged the question or just understood it from another way.
Beazly. "...It's almost unbelievable, to know such war happened and humans of today know nothing about...But it made me want to know even more about the rest!!
How come we lost?? Up til now the Atlanteans had the upper hand...
Or was it that..."
Heracles stands up and with it the two chairs disappeared.
"For another day, now you atleast know the origins of my powers and why I can use Sigil.
More importantly, why such technique that I teached you is forbidden."
Beazly was disappointed that he's not going to hear more, just when Charlemagne stood in front of Astaroth!! But he already never imagined to know this much already. He can't ask for more!
"...Yes now I know, or atleast have an idea.
But there is something I still don't know...From what I understood, you were probably stronger than the archdemons themselves, I don't think you lost the battle and was taken as hostage...
So how did y..."
Heracles cuts him off.
"Enough is enough!!!
Let's get to why we're here now...To restore your powers."
Suddenly, from the nothingness a mysterious creature appears right behind Heracles!!
Beazly was thrown off and instinctively tried to light himself in fire...but was reminded of his lost power.
"Are you looking for, this?"
The man calmly said, as his hand lit up fire!!
Beazly looked at it closely.
'...I am sure, this is my own fire!
I know it damn well like it's a part of my body...There is no doubt!!
I want it...I WANT IT!!'
Heracles. "Calm down Beazly!
This demon you see, is called Mephistopheles...He'll be your teacher for the next period until you get your powers back.
It may take you 10days, it may take a month, or even a year.
It depends on you!!"
Beazly looked hesitant and uncomfortable, the looks of this demon is very weird and gives the same vibes of someone he completely despises...Halphas!!!
A pale man with dark hair and very sharp features. From his pointed beard to his pointed long ears, to his tapering fingernails and slanted eyebrows.
He dresses in fine Renaissance clothing! Puffed sleeves and pants, a short cape, a feathered cap, and tights that disappear into pointed shoes, all made of red and black silk!
While a gleaming sword was tucked into his black belt.
He spoke. "I understand your doubt, but you'll grow a liking to me very soon.
You just heard the story of how your master Heracles, was taken to the ends of creation by Mammon, in order to "enlighten him".
I am here to take you to that same kind of experience!
But only, a better one! One where you'll see truth as it is, where you'll have my utmost caring for your own good.
If you proved to be worthy, I'll return your powers back to you!"
Heracles. "The one and only condition, beside being able to master Sigil, was to sacrifice life force for good intent.
Mephistopheles and I are friends from a very ancient time, and have decided to join the other side at the moment. However, none knows that we still practise Sigil!!
I do not advise you to tell anyone about that as well.
...So now, what do you say?"
Beazly was really confused, too much information in just one day...He wasn't the quickest learner or thinker either.
'...Fuck it, I trust my master and if he tells me to trust a demon...Then!!!
No...A demon!!
A DEMON!!!!
The same ones who tried to kill my family, my people...The same ones who actually killed my best friend!!!!
But then...He's not the same as them...
He wouldn't be allowed here if he wasn't...I maybe can trust him, even for a little bit...
As long as he'll get me...my powers back...'
He was troubled inside, Mephistopheles was left with his hand reaching out towards the Atlantean.
Tentatively, Beazly gets closer to shake it, as a form of agreement to the deal made between the two!
Slowly....He finally did!!
The mysterious demon smiles, a very welcoming gentle feeling covered Beazly's body Then...Mephistopheles gets a very tight hold of his hand.
'..Does this demon like shaking hands or wh..."
SUDDENLY!!!
The easy going calm, serious look became a terrifying malicious smile!!!
