Chapter
17
Axel followed Lilibeth's aura up to the roof-top of a buiding.
The latter was abviously expecting his arrival.
She wore a flowy dress with floral prints. Her hair like her dress was carefully carressed by the wind. As though to make her look innocent and attractive. One of her unique talents. But that trick doesn't work on him.
"Tell me, what is it that you intend to do coming here?"
Lilibeth turned to him wearing a sweet smile.
"Wasn't it you who were looking for me?" she said teasing. "And I thought you we're actually missing me."
He fell completely silent. And lilibeth can tell that he's not into word games.
"You must be worried that I might hurt your beloved Muriel. Enough to make sure your henceman knows my every move."
"That's not all I'm capable of."
"I know, lilibeth interrupted him. Everyone knows. Even the heavens." she rolled her eyeballs. "But you must know, I am more capable than your father. And if I wanted to erase your angel from the face of the earth. That wouldn't be a hard task."
Soon enough, lilibeth was whispering behind his ear again.
"You should be more concerned of the people around him. They are more easy to control and make mistakes."
He was just about to ask what she meant. But she faded in thin air as soon as he could realize.
"Lucas," he called out of nowhere.
"Master," the latter appeared later. "I apologize for my incompetence. I was late to realize that she got wind that we were looking for her. I should have been more careful."
"You don't need to apologize. I'm the one who let that demon go. Anyway, she's not that stupid not to notice." he turned to face Lucas. "it's better this way, I can monitor her every move when she clings to me like this."
"And Urie?"
He shrugged at the thought. And almost wanted to scratch his head in frustration.
Lucas can't help but laugh.
"That's what human's say, juggling two balls are easier. Than two woman at the same time."
"Shut your mouth." he hissed.
"As you wish." Lucas tried restraining a grin.
"I'm more worried of what she told me earlier."
"You mean, a possible possesion just to hurt Muriel?"
Axel gave a nod. "I'm not sure, if it would be her doing or my father's."
"But she seems to be the one warning you."
"Eitherway, it's not wise to trust her. She is still a demon, and a queen at that."
Lucas stood still and waited for his command.
"Be observant of Muriel's surroundings. Make sure that no human possesed by a demon gets near him."
"As you wish." Lucas said leaving his Master.
Meanwhile, at the taping- set.
An unexpected sneeze escaped Uries nose. It's not like he has cold or anything.
He and Adam just finished one of their scenes together. He sat quiet at one side reviewing his lines. But his eyes was roaming everywhere.
And that thing did not escape Adams eyes.
He knew very well who Urie was looking for. At that thought, unknowingly, a hand was touching his shoulder. And other's behind it was sneering.
Rain was walking in after a shooting a scene. When his eyes caught a terrifying scene surrounding Adam.
Nobody knows of his ability other than his family members. Which are known to be the descendants of solomon.
Each generation is gifted with the ability to see and talk with monsters, demons , ghosts and even angels. They can also be considered more superior than an ordinary human beings. For they have the ability to capture and slay demons if they so wanted.
But only one has the ability to control demons through a ring passed down on every generation.
And as the lone descendant of his family. He is the one to inherit that ring. Called the ring of solomon.
"Is there a problem?" rain flinched when urie suddenly came up to him.
He sensed that the demon's around Adam was about to notice him staring. So he acted as usual, and ignored it for now. He'll have to deal with them later on. He has to know first what their purpose are for messing with Adams feelings.

"Seven spirits you say?" asked Rain's grandfather Emmanuel.
They were having tea on the garden when he opened up what he saw that day.
"They're seven beautiful woman. But I can tell that they are demons. I just don't get why they interfere in a single human like that."
"It may have to do with the prophecy."
Rain can't help but raise an eyebrow.
"What prophecy?"
His grandpa started wearing that serious face again.
And when he does, Rain can't help but feel uneasy. For he knows, it could mean a greater feat between good and evil. And as Solomon's descendants. They are set to be the one's defending the human realm. As angels are to heaven.
"It says that once an angel ascends. All evil will come to end his life. A war between satan and the angels will happen once again. All descendants of both good and evil will fight against each other. But one will again side with the angels. And bring forth the ascending of the angel said in the scroll."
"And who is this that will bring forth the ascending of the angel?"
"A devil."
Rain's jaw suddenly dropped. "What?"
