Lucifer is just standing there annoyed with all of these people coming to his house and they even used one of his old artifacts to brake in and if that wasn't enough one of them even cuts his arm off. 'How preposterous'
He didn't show himself for a long time and in the royal family only the kings know about him and try to keep their family members from making him angry. 'Guess I will need to rethink some things'
-----
As I'm looking at the boy who just got his arm without even flinching, his arm that just got cut off, turned green at the end which was cut and started growing vine like things, the same things happen at his shoulder, then the vines connect and his arm reattaches itself like nothing even happened even his black shirt which was cut, was now fine
A lot of thoughts run through my mind what is he, who is he, why is fathering kneeling, and it looks like we may be in trouble, someone who can reattach his arm like that isn't someone to mess around with, but it seems my sister hasn't realised the predicament she found herself in.
"No matter how many times you reattach your arm I will cut it off" she lounges at Lucifer again before I can stop her, she always was a muscle head, not thinking about her actions at all.
As she is coming near, his left arm elongates and turns green. It looks like when you crisscrosse rope to make it stronger only difference is its deep green color.
As the vine is coming to fast for her to dodge, a silver shadow comes in front of her and they both get slammed into the wall, that was the king who couldn't just sit still and watch his daughter get killed in front of him.
They slump down the wall and on the king you can see how half of his torso caved in, and he is bleeding from all orifices, seemingly unmoving, Anna is a better state then her father as she didn't take the full brunt of the attack.
Mellisa screams when she saw how her father and sister look, and runs to them, as Lucifer turns around and sees her, he just gave a look when suddenly beneath her sprout a couple of vines binding her tightly around her arms, legs, torso and even her mouth, preventing her from screaming and talking. Then he looks at Elsie she stood there paralysed from fear her knees shaking, as he looked at her her vision blackened for a moment like before but this just added more to her fear, as he slowly approaches her she stood unmoving.
The king suddenly said
"Please spare them, I know I made a mistake when you were going to punish Anna but as a father I couldn't sit still, please spare them, absorb me"
Lucifer just glanced at him a vine sprouted from the floor and binded his mouth stopping him from talking anymore. As he sees this his last hope shattered, he can't move his body and now can't even talk to plead him anymore.
Lucifer keeps on walking until he finaly arrived in front of Elsie. He stretches his arm, grabs her face by chin and brings it closer to his.
Elsie couldn't do anything but watch, on the verge of tears as he looks right into her eyes.
"Hmm I was right, you girl are special, how about we make a deal when I call you, you will answer all my calls and do exactly as I say, in turn I will not punish your family members"
The king can't belive his ears, Lucifer, that Lucifer who destroyed kingdoms like swatting a fly is offering a deal to a little girl. Lucifer of all people would never forgive something like this, either Elsie is more special then we thought or he has some other purpose for her, they might be after her body if it were someone else, but someone like him shouldn't be after her body. Is this a blessing or a curse?
-----
I just stood there, my brain processing what's happening, not knowing what to say, a guy who almost killed the king with a swing of his hand, a guy who devours and contaminates mana like a monster is offering me a deal. This might be a trap, but it's better if I sell myself then my father and sisters will survive, never said what he wants with me, he just said I need to listen to his orders, he never specified for how long, well I will be married to some noble when one of my siblings succeedes the throne to establish relationships. Either way I won't have freedom, might as well save my family now then face the consequences afterwards.
"Well what's your answer girl" His ways brings me back from my thoughts.
"Yyye-ss" I stutter as I agree still afraid if he will spare my family
As he sees me agree, a plant grows besides the three of them, blossoms and drops one drop of dew on each one of them. The king falls asleep same for Melissa, Anna was already unconscious.
A needle materialises in his hand and he opens a portal that sucks all of them inside.
On the other side awaits 8 black knights looking at them without moving, seemingly waiting for something.
Elsie looks at them, she's starting to feel afraid again her father and sisters are still unconscious, who know how long it will take for them to wake up. Now she's wondering why were they waiting here exactly at the same time as Lucifer teleported them here, he might have something to do with this.
"Ccan youu help me carryy them to bedd" She says meekly, after gathering her courage.
All of the knights start moving at the same time grabbing them and carrying them to a bed, it look like there are already 4 beds prepared for them, one for each of them.
Once the knights placed them on the beds, they went to the wall and stood still, looking like they won't be moving anytime soon.
I sigh and getup from the floor, I finaly have enough strength in my legs to stand up,I approach one of the empty beds and lie on it, 'This has been a hard and exhausting day today'
As I lay there a plant sprouts near me and drops one drop of dew on me which disappeares immediately, and I fell asleep '
