In the evening I had prepared everything for this special occasion, I was sure the Friends would love the party I had made for them.
After making all the preparations, I went to invite all my Friends to the place where we used to meet because I was sure they would be there. After walking for a few minutes I finally arrived there, in a narrow house full of trash scattered everywhere, I could see them gathered in the yard like they were doing something. ah... I guessed they were all gathered here because after all this place was their home. I felt a little sorry for my poor friends, I'm sure they would be happy if I invited them to a party at my house where there would be plenty of food and drinks available.
I started walking towards them, and my friends who sensed my presence immediately turned their heads towards where I was. They looked shocked and tried to run into the house but I quickly replaced them by saying.
"Stop... I have no intention of hurting you all, so please don't be afraid and listen to what I have to say."
"H... how can we trust you, you're nothing more than a scary bully, just say what you want here," one of the kids said.
Hmm... I know that kid, if I'm not mistaken his name is Julian. He was the oldest child in their family, both of their parents had died due to overwork and only left the four of them. Where Julian who is the first child and the oldest becomes the backbone of the family and must make a living for his 1 younger sister and 2 younger brothers. They all looked scared with the younger sister and younger brother hiding behind Julian's body.
"Don't worry, I don't have any bad intentions, I just came here to apologize for everything I've done. To make you suffer," I said while bowing my head.
Seeing the change in Samuel's attitude of course made Julian very surprised, as well as Julian's younger sister and younger brother. But this could not make Julian believe it, because he knew what an asshole the person in front of him was. He couldn't be fooled by his trickery.
"Hah... how can I trust someone like you, I will never forgive you for making us all suffer"
I who heard all Julian's words became very upset, I wanted to kill them now but of course, I had to hold back because if you want to do something big, you need great patience too.
"You don't believe me, I sincerely apologize to you. Ah... how about as my apology you just come to my house, there happens to be a party being held by my father as a reward because I managed to get high grades in my tutoring.how would you like to come along? "
"Huh? What..."
I could see the look of confusion on their faces, it was all because I invited them to an event that was usually only attended by nobles. Lower-class people like them, never attend parties let alone eat luxurious food that is impossible for them to obtain.
"You..."
"Please come to my party, I want you to attend. I swear that I have no ill intentions whatsoever" Samuel said while bowing his body.
Julian looked confused, he didn't know what to answer and he still wondered if Samuel had repented or not, it had been more than a week since Samuel hadn't bothered them again. Plus they haven't eaten anything all day. Julian thought about the state of his younger sister and two younger brothers, they looked hungry and of course, it made Julian unable to bear to see it. After thinking for a long time, Julian finally answered.
"Okay, we'll come over there," said Julian.
Of course, I who heard it became very happy, I couldn't hide my happy expression at all and smiled happily. Without thinking, I said again.
"Then before going to the party how about we go shopping first"
"Huh... shopping?" said Julian confused.
"Of course, I have to give you new clothes, there's no way you're coming with clothes like that," I said while pointing to their dirty and shabby clothes.
After I said that, Julian seemed to understand and immediately understood.
"But is it okay for you to buy clothes for us?"
"Of course not, we're friends, I should help. Besides, this is all as a gift that I give because you want to forgive me, so let's go now while there is still time because the event starts at exactly 8 pm"
I started to pull Julian's hand and was followed by his younger sister and younger brother. We went to the best clothes shop in the Golden Kingdom. I also bought the best noble clothes for them and they seemed to like them. After buying them everything they needed I immediately took the friends to the Addison family mansion. They seemed surprised and amazed to see my mansion which was very large and spacious, I told them to enter my mansion and when inside I was immediately greeted by the servants at home, they bowed their heads to me as I walked past them. Julian and his younger siblings looked nervous because it was their first time coming to a manor house. The event was held in my backyard where there was a long table with lots of food and drinks available.
I deliberately held the party outdoors because I didn't want to dirty the floor of my house when the main party started, I had also placed some guards in the area around the mansion so that no one would be aware of my actions. In the backyard there is a beautiful garden and also a high wall as the boundary of my house, Today will be the best party ever.
"Wow..."
They admired the decorations and decorations in the backyard and the beautiful garden added to its beauty. I told them to take their seats. After that I called the waiter and told them to pour drinking water from the ceramic pitcher on the table, the waiter poured the water containing orange juice into each of our glasses. Starting with me then Julian and finally his younger siblings.
"Okay, drink up," I said kindly.
But they didn't seem to believe me at all, as evidenced by their relentless staring at the glasses filled with orange juice. I quickly picked up my glass and drank the same orange juice they were drinking, trying to convince them that there was no poison or anything like that.
"Look... I didn't put anything in the water so don't worry"
Julian who saw that finally drank the orange juice followed by his younger siblings.
"Wow... this orange juice is delicious," said Nana, Julian's younger sister.
"Yes... this is my first time drinking orange juice" said Raihan, one of Julian's younger siblings, while Edi, the smallest brother just nodded his head.
"Hahaha... I'm glad you guys like it" I said happily.
"Then, please enjoy the food too," I said.
"Yes... thank you... but I have something to ask Young Master Samuel"
"No need to call me young master, we are friends and you are one year older than me, so just call me Samuel"
"Ah... well Samuel, may I ask why we're the only ones here, shouldn't you invite the others too like the other noble friends"
"Ah... I didn't invite them because we noble children don't get along with each other, it may look like I'm friends with them but they are nothing more than enemies in the blanket, they will find a way to bring each other down"
"Really..."
"Of course, while my sisters and parents have their own busy lives they don't have time for me, in other words, I'm alone in this house and the only ones who accompany me to play are the maids in this big house."
"Brother Samuel don't be sad, we are here to keep you company," Nana said trying to cheer Samuel up.
"Thank you, Nana, you are such a good girl."
"I'm sorry that I've brought up such a sensitive topic, I didn't mean to"
"It's okay, don't worry."
"I'm very grateful..." Before Julian could continue, his sister Nana, suddenly fainted.
"NANA!!!"
At the same time Julian's two younger siblings Raihan and Edi also fell unconscious making Julian even more panicked, he wondered what happened to his younger siblings. A few seconds later Julian also felt his glorious vision become blurred and his head began to dizzy.
"W.... What's going on? Why does my head feel so dizzy?"
"Really? Your head is already starting to spin, so why don't you go to sleep," Samuel said with a smile.
Julian at that moment immediately realized that this was all Samuel's doing, he was trapped by Samuel, and he shouldn't have trusted a snake boy like him. Shit... Shit... Julian could only curse his stupidity for trusting Samuel. There was no way the boy who always bothered him would change this quickly.
"You... what did you do to us?"
"Hihihi... it's easy, I just poisoned your drinks with sleeping pills," Samuel said with a happy smile.
"WHAT...!!! HOW CAN THERE BE POISON IN THE DRINKS?"
"Hahaha... just because we drink from the same pot, doesn't mean it's not poisonous"
"WHAT!!!"
"You know that the ceramic teapot has two different chambers where two different drinks can be placed, one containing sleeping pills and the other a safe drink. Each chamber in the ceramic teapot has a hidden hole near the handle of the teapot for pouring a specific drink. The concept is quite easy, if we want to pour the poisonous drink, we just need to close the hole containing the safe water near the teapot to prevent the water from escaping, easy right?"
"You bastard"
"Hahaha... don't blame me for all that because you are very naive and easily fooled just because I offered food and drinks you immediately believed it, well... anyway you are a stupid child even though our ages are only one year different but I am smarter than you"
Julian's body was getting weaker, and his vision was getting blurry but he had to get his younger siblings out of this lion cage. Julian tried to get up from his seat and started walking towards his younger siblings. Meanwhile, Samuel immediately got up and took out the knife he had been hiding. He will start with Julian first, he will not kill him but will only paralyze him for a while because he wants to see Julian's expression when his younger siblings are killed by him.
STAB...
"AAKHH..."
Julian cried out in pain as Samuel stabbed his right leg. He fell to the ground due to Samuel's attack, while Samuel immediately walked towards Julian's younger sister and pulled her to the ground. Without lingering he immediately pointed the knife right in front of Nana's chest and prepared to stab her heart. Julian, who saw his sister about to be killed, began to move even though he had to endure the pain in his leg.
"STOP!!!!... KEEP THAT KNIFE AWAY FROM HER"
While Samuel who heard Julian's words just smiled and quickly stabbed Nana right in the heart, making Nana die instantly in a bloodied condition.
"NO..."
Julian started running towards Samuel without caring any more about his injured leg, he had to replace Samuel to kill all his younger siblings. Once they were close Julian immediately grabbed Samuel's right hand which was holding a knife, and a tug of war ensued between them.
I kicked his injured right leg, making Julian scream in pain, which caught him off guard, and quickly withdrew my right hand. After that, without lingering any longer, I immediately pointed the knife at Julian's stomach until he screamed in pain and fell to the ground. I continued to stab him until finally Julian died on the spot. My body was full of Julian's and Nana's blood, but I still didn't care and continued my action and killed Julian's two other younger brothers until I finally managed to kill them all.
I was feeling very happy, this sensation was amazing, but when I was feeling happy suddenly someone spoke right behind which surprised me.
"Wow... I didn't expect a little kid like you to have a psychopathic soul too"
I quickly turned my body backwards and when I turned around I could see someone in a black robe there. I wondered how he could get in here when he had placed guards around the mansion area.
"Who are you... How did you get here?"
"Me? ...I'm just a person who happened to be passing around here," the man in black said.
"Huh... just passing by? This is not a place that can be entered by passers-by, so tell me who you are"
"This kid is smart, well... I came because I smelled a strong scent of blood so I decided to come here. I wanted to see who the person who killed at night was but unexpectedly it turned out to be a child, how old are you... looking at your body size, you look like you're 6 years old."
Cih... he's seen it all, I can't let him live, he could be an eyewitness that will harm him later. I immediately ran while pointing the knife at the mysterious man but he was able to dodge easily. I continued to attack him until just as I was about to launch another attack, the mysterious man disappeared and suddenly appeared behind me. He held up his index finger which had a long, sharp nail.
"Wow... calm down kid I don't intend to hurt you, instead I want to recruit you into my organization," said the mysterious man.
I didn't know what the mysterious man meant.
"What do you mean, what organization?"
"Do you know the Church of Yatan?"
"Yatan Church?"
"Yes, it's a church that worships the demon king Beelzebub as god"
"I see your unlimited potential, so I want to recruit you to become one of the adherents of the Yatan church, the Yatan church has an active organization called the Cultus Demonic. We have a goal to make the demon king Beelzebub the ruler of this world"
"What will I get if I join the church of Yatan?"
"Of course, you will get whatever you want, be it Strength, power, and even abundant money. You can even kill as many as you want But it all depends on how you play an active role in the cultus demonic, the greater your achievements, the more you will be rewarded, and can even be crowned as one a loyal follower of the demon king Beelzebub"
"Who are you?"
"Ohh... I am the eighth devil of the church of Yatan, one of the most influential people in the cultus demonic, my name is Kenneth"
"How about it kid? Are you interested in joining the church of Yatan?"
I was still silent and didn't know what to say, whether I accepted this mysterious man's offer or rejected it. While I was in confusion, the mysterious man said again.
"No need to rush, if you agree break this stone and I will come directly to you," said the mysterious man while giving a black stone to Samuel, after giving it the mysterious man just disappeared.
