Chapter 58 - Chapter 58 : On The Attack (Part 2)

Lucifer stepped out of the bathroom while drying his head with a towel. Merona was there waiting for him with breakfast in her hand.

"Good morning Dearly Beloved, I have made you breakfast."

"I'm not hungry."

Lucifer walked past her and went into his closet. Mero was saddened that Lucifer didn't even notice the breakfast she prepared.

"I'm deeply sorry for my behaviour earlier," She apologised.

"..."

"I know humans are the source of your misery and what happened to you and because of that you despise—"

Before Mero could finish Lucifer slammed the closet door violently, shutting Mero up. He turned and walked past her towards the door when Lucifer's other three wives stood in his way.

"Lucifer, How long are you going to ignore Mero? Don't you think you're being a jerk right now?" Fenrir scolded.

"What Mero did wasn't to protect the humans, it was to protect you. Husband, there is no need to direct your anger at her," Lelania said.

"Dearly Beloved, Please forgive me," Mero apologised once again.

Lucifer turned and looked at the plate in her hand. There were two eggs and bacon on the plate creating a sad face. Mero used ketchup to create tear drops and the words "Please forgive me" written with ketchup. With his eyes closed, he looked at the plate in her hand for a moment before he walked over and took a bite of one of the eggs and turned the bacon around. Now it looked like the breakfast was winking with a smile on its face. Mero and the others got the messages and wore a smile on their faces.

"Thank you dearest beloved, I promise I won't something like this ever again," Mero reassured him.

"Let's go."

Lucifer walked to the control room and his four wives followed him. The door opened and Black Jack was there kneeling before him.

"Prepare the ship for take off."

"As you wish my lord."

"Wait Lucifer you can't, be paladin is still on the ship, she's been there all night," Fenrir explained while pointing to the ceiling

Lucifer didn't show any Interest whatsoever.

"Achoo!" Rosario sneezed.

She hugged herself while sitting on the top of the ship. Suddenly she felt the ship shaking. Rosario was confused as to what's going on until she felt the ship rising out of the water.

"Magnetize."

Using a Magnetic Spell she was able to stick onto the ship as hit flew into the air as top speed. Rosario screamed as this was her first time going at such high velocity and all that went on until the ship lands in the woods 2 kilometers away from the monster village. The ship opened and everyone walked out including Pressila. Lucifer looked up at the sky as it looked like it was about to rain.

"Aaaaaaaaah!"

Rosario falled from off the top of the ship and crashed before Lucifer and the others. She dug her head out of the ground and rub the bump on her head.

"Ow! Ow! Ow!—Hm?"

Rosario looked at everyone standing in front of her staring at her. She jumped to her feet, brushed off her clothes and became vigilant.

"Lucifer, I still suspect that someone might come after you, so let's work together and stop this person before innocent people get hurt."

"Not interested."

"What? You're not interested that someone is after you? What kind of a man or child are you?" Rosario shouted.

"What your mouth!"

Lucifer slightly opened his left eye and Rosario shuddered when she got a look at his eyes.

"She's pretty annoying, makes me disappointed that I lost to a human like this," Fenrir sighed as she scratched her head.

"I'm Rosario Duchriet Rank #1 Paladin of the Kingdom Of Falmiere, you're lucky to be standing in my presence," Rosario stated as she glared at Fenrir.

"Mero stay on this ship," Lucifer ordered.

"But, I want to—"

"Do as I say."

"R-Right."

"Black Jack stay with her."

"As you wish my lord."

After giving his orders Lucifer walked away.

"Hey I'm coming with you," Rosario stated

Lucifer turned to her with his killing intent. "If you come with me, I'll kill you," He said to her in a cold ominous voice.

Rosario couldn't say anything but watch them walk away.

'Just you wait Lucifer, I'll bring you to justice one day you monster,' She thought to herself as she gritted her teeth and fumed.

"It's going to be a bit lonely on the ship Rosario cares to join me for some tea," Mero asked.

"S-Sure why not."

So Rosario followed Mero unto the ship. As Mero walked she looked around the ship and its complex design.

"This thing is magnificent, who built it?"

"That would be our dearly Beloved Husband "

"He built this! I never seen anything like it neither in the holy kingdom of Nerotopia nor the dwarf kingdom,"

Mero smiled proudly. "Fufufufu Husband is a man of many talents."

"Tell me you're a Mermaid are you? What are you doing on land?" Rosario questioned.

"It's simple, to be with the love of my life and give him everything I can provide," Mero said with a sparkling aura.

Rosario blush for a moment. "Why did you fall for a monster like Lucifer n he's coldblooded, violent and doesn't show others respect."

"That's because you don't know the real Lucifer. He's kind and gentle and is willing to protect those he loves," Mero stated.

"I highly doubt it, I think you're being manipulated by him," Rosario said with a huff.

"Lucifer saved my life and it was from that day I fell in love with him. You could call it.. Love at first sight... You won't understand."

"Why is that?"

"Its because you're only a human."

The two sit together and drink tea together. Suddenly Rosario sensed something and drew her sword.

"Who does there?!" She shouted.

Appearing out of the shadow was a man in a robe and a chivalry knight in a white armour with red eyes glowing under the visor of the helmet

'That night in the white armour, I've seen him before,' Rosario thought to herself.

"It's been a while hasn't it Rosario," the man in jet black robe said with a smile.

"Who are you and now to you know my name?" Rosario ask.

The man removed the robe of his head and it was a old man around 80 years old, with white wrinkled skin, long grey hair with a bald spot, glowing red eyes. Rosario panicked when she saw him and took a step back.

"Grand Magician Misreld!" Rosario exclaimed with a shocked expression on her face.
