"I tried to kill your niece."
"Then do you want me to kill you? It will be easier to just die than to stay here in the darkness, don't you think?" Lucifer asked casually as though he was asking Damien if he would like to have some candy.
Lucifer even pointed at the flames coming out of his wings and added, "These are the flames of hellfire. You'll burn along with your soul. Do you want me to kill you right now?"
Damien felt a pang in his heart. And he stared at Lucifer trying to figure out if he was hallucinating or if the King was crazy.
Lucifer chuckled after seeing that terrified and confused expression on Damien's face. "Relax kid, I was just trying to make a joke to lighten the mood. But you took it too seriously."
Damien screamed in his mind, "You didn't look like you were joking!"
But Damien did realize one thing. And it was that he didn't want to die. The thought of perishing into nothingness was too much for him.
