Satan raised an eyebrow– really? Well, it doesn't surprise me much. I remember when he was a kid, he loved it when the imps played with him since he didn't have any friends.
Astar hasn't changed much, despite always being irritated or with that indifferent expression.– Lucifer says with a thoughtful expression and then lets out a nostalgic smile.
Well, he seems to be quite affectionate towards you. Are you going to make him your heir? Or are you going to make one?– Satan was genuinely curious.
I don't know, although I want Astaroth to take my place someday, I don't think he would be able to rule hell.– the king lets out a long, loud sigh.
Don't you think he would be able to? It's because of his power, right? I don't imagine him doing anything to be more powerful.– The Lord approached and touched Lucifer's crown, but the king quickly shoves Satan's hands away.
Don't touch my crown again. And yes, I don't think Astar would do anything to have more power. That's why I wanted someone to give me an heir.– Lucifer crosses his arms over his chest and sighs again.
What if this heir tries to kill you instead of being an ally? - Satan questions him seriously.
So that would be a problem, obviously I would have to do something. Don't discourage me, I'm almost giving up on having a child.– The king adjusts his crown and stands up, he walks towards the window and observes the city of sinners from afar.
Okay, okay. I'll try not to bring it up again. In fact, I'll spend the night here.– Satan says, following Lucifer to the window, with a silly smile.
What? Why?– The white-haired demon quickly turned around and looked at his friend.
C'mon... Drinking night, huh? Like we used to do before.– the Lord says smiling widely, hiding his real intention.
You just stress me out sometimes. Go ahead, do whatever you want.– Lucifer knew that Satan didn't want to stay in his palace just to remember the old times, but he wasn't interested in knowing the reason either.
Astaroth's pov
Astaroth was in his office, the day seemed to never end and he didn't have as much paperwork as he normally did.
As soon as he finished his work, he ordered the head chef to prepare the pizza he had asked to prepare the dough in advance. The pizza should be just cheese and olive oil, just the way he always asked for it. Meanwhile, he goes to the living room and sits down, staring at the ceiling while thinking about the latest events.
The young master decides to write a letter to one of his best friends, Baal, since the two have not seen each other for a long time. He takes a sheet of paper and a red ink pen, and writes the following words:
"
Hey! It's been a long time since we've been out together. How are you? I was wondering - why don't you come over and sleep over? We can hang out, have a drink or play games, and just relax like old times. Tell me what you think! It would be amazing to hang out again.
With love, Astaroth."
He puts the paper inside an envelope and puts his perfume on that letter. He had a smile on his face as he finished scenting that purple paper.
Astaroth goes to one of the messengers and asks him to deliver the letter to Baal, then he returns to the living room and sits on the sofa again.
Baal, an ambitious demon who exudes sensuality, has blonde, curly hair, a look that is full of mischief but seems innocent. As if she were an angel, she had fair skin, white wings, a slender and youthful face, seductive red eyes, and a voice that was pleasant to listen to. Horns and white tail, she also only wore light-colored clothing like white or an extremely light blue, just to reinforce this innocent image of hers.
Astaroth and Baal had been friends for a few years now, even though they don't meet often, the young master enjoys Baal's company and her personality. Astar's thoughts were interrupted by the smell of the pizza he was waiting for, he quickly got up to get it and then return to the living room. Everything was calm until Satan and Lucifer appeared, they seemed distracted talking about something, but the Lord went towards Astaroth and made sure to take the piece that the young man was eating, just to annoy him.
Damn it old man, go find someone else to bother.– He says trying to get his piece back, but Satan doesn't waste time and eats the piece of pizza.
You two seem strangely closer, huh?– Lucifer speaks as he gets in Satan's way and pulls him away from Astaroth.– Astar... Forgive me for earlier, okay? I'm just worried about you.– The king strokes the young man's hair and hugs him.
It's okay dad, I'm sorry too.– Astaroth lets out a sigh as he returns the hug.
Satan watched the affectionate moment between the two while he continued eating the pizza, which he wasn't even enjoying that much since it only had cheese and olive oil. The old Lord found it funny how the two's tails were wagging in an agitated rhythm, showing their happiness. The pleasant atmosphere soon ended when an explosion could be heard, Lucifer's palace was being attacked by cherubim. This was enough to make the king furious, as they had interrupted his moment with his son.
I'm going to kill these bastards! Astar, wait for me inside.– Lucifer's angry expression softened slightly as he looked at the young man. The king headed towards the palace exit to resolve this Incident.
Astaroth just nodded and looked at his food and soon became enraged as well, there was only one piece left in Satan's hand.– Give me that shit back!– the young man tried to grab the last piece.
I don't think I will. - Satan says laughing, mocking Astaroth's face.
What the fuck, old man! Stop it! - Astar manages to reach the pizza but the old Lord grabs his hand and pulls him down, making their eyes meet.
Astaroth tries to bite the Lord with those teeth sharper than a knife, but Satan quickly dodges. - Damn, boy! Stop acting like an animal.
The young Lord just gives up and moves away from Satan, sighing in anger and hunger.
