It had been exactly 1 hour ago that Maria run into her office.Her reason for fleeing the grips of the Devil was surely understandable.She had gotten a glimpse of Asmo's real face.She saw the horns,the scary dark eyes he possessed and the resemblance of every horrible but dangerously handsome description of the King Of Hell's new cursed appearance.She was trying to convince herself that she was hallucinating but her mind kept telling her the same thing,"He told you he was the devil why don't you want to believe it".She was deep in her mental turmoil confused about what was real and what was not when she heard a sound behind her.
Asmodeus was sick of waiting to see Maria.He first thought she run because she was tempted but replaying what happened in his mind he realized,she was actually terrified.Did she see something she shouldn't have.He wouldn't blame her if she wanted to stay far away from him.
Long ago after the fallen angels lost the war,their Father stripped them of their wings and then he took their faces.Their once beautiful and God like appearance was gone and eclipsed by a curse that made mortals see them as their worst imagination of who the Devil was.That was why through the generations, every religion, people and culture had a different description of the Devil.It was what they believed they knew about the Devil's looks that manifested anytime the seven were exposed.
Asmodeus was getting sick of it, humans never believed in a beautiful and gorgeous Devil. Of course they were the rulers of evil and darkness but they deserved a little honour.Asmo missed his glorious face which mortals could literally die for if they stared an angel in the face with their true form showing.They called it the face of God.Those faces where stripped away from the seven and they were left at the mercy of human imagination.
Well he decided to go explain himself to Maria.Its not like he never told her that he was the devil.
He approached her door and already knowing that it was locked he vanished and appeared inside.
Maria turned to see Asmo again but this time she was ready for him.If he was really the Devil then he would feel the sting of her secret wea
pons.She pulled out a glass of what seemed like water and spilled it on Asmo screaming,"Be gone you Demon".Nothing happened and she was hit with the reality that she just soaked her new boss on his very first day.
Asmodeus grabbed his handkerchief and began wiping his face.Maria was about to apologize him when he hit her with another bombshell,"Am not a demon.The seven fallen are very powerful entities who can't be commanded out of people.The host has to be dead for a Fallen to manifest.They are begged, convinced or bargained with.
He could give a perfect example of the Legion who were bold enough to stand before the divine one and say how and where they wanted to be taken out.
Judas was actually the saddest one.Big brother Satan personally rode that guy to self destruction.
Asmo still got chills remembering the dark ages but now he had to get his head in the game.He brought his focus back to a dumbfounded Maria.
What was Asmo telling her just now.Did he say he was one of the Arch demons,a true prince of hell.
She should have been screaming or begging but instead she felt a peace pass over her.She was no longer scared.She was unusually calm and spoke,"Asmo you call yourself the Devil right".
"Yeah,why are acting so calm while asking that",Asmo asked as he also felt ' down Maria.He suspected it was his Father's divine spirit.Damn it Asmo's Dad was probably unto him but even being faced with the fact that his dad might be watching didn't faze Asmo.Their Dad had a tendency of letting man do what he wants.He called it free will.
That was the special gift from humanity's creator but it was also the source of the conflict between Lucifer and their Dad.Asmo was 100% sure that all his Dad would do was watch as he Asmodeus won a soul for the kingdom of darkness.
'Asmo I want as to go on a field trip.If you're really who you say you are then come to church with me.Unless Of course you're are scared",Maria spilled as if she was in a trance.
He knew he was possibly being led into a trap but Asmo was always known to never say no so he replied,"Okay then,I guess we can go but know this we the seven princes were never ugly they were lights in the world.Beauty was their epitomy and they surely called Lucifer the Bright Morningstar.
