Demon among men

Chapter 15: The unveiling secret

Are we not getting out of the car? Ivan questioned.

Yeah... No... Okay, let's go to the restaurant. Emily replied with a confused face. Are you alright?; He asked. Yeah, I am fine. My mom will be expecting my arrival soon. Emily said, trying to change the discussion.

They got out of the car and were moving to the restaurant. The restaurant was 10 metres away from the location where the car was parked and cars are not advisable to cross the road because of the shape.

This is the restaurant. She broke the silence which lasted for a few minutes, pointing to a traditional house. Without anyone's speech, the appearance expressed that it was built some years ago.

Ivan entered the place while Emily was standing there and looking at him. A normal human being is supposed to express a sad or disappointed look on his face but.... Maybe he has been tracing me since my young age. She thought and followed him inside the place.

The exterior looked disgusting but the interior was encouraging. The paintings were used to decorate the place and there were different chairs and tables arranged accordingly there.

There were many customers but, unfortunately, some of them were already leaving because they were waiting for an hour until Ivan ran to them and encouraged them. They were excited that a rich guy had come to the restaurant and Ivan promised to give them money after they had their delicious meal.

He looked at the waiter and saw an old woman who was sweating profusely. That was my first love. Emily said and pointed to the old woman who was in the middle of two young ladies.

She has employed another person again, maybe because of stress. She continued with a sad expression.

Ivan moved closer to her and greeted her. He advised her to have some rest and he wore her napkin. The old woman was surprised because she hadn't seen that face before and she didn't notice Emily's arrival.

Demonic realm

****

The demon lords gathered in the meeting room because of the sudden assembly ordered by the king. They began to have different thoughts. The murmuring stopped when they sighted the king's arrival. He moved quietly to his seat and sat down, while the Lords bowed down and sat down too.

It has been sixteen years since Ethan has into a mortal. There must be changes in the mortal realm. What do you think? He said, frowning his face. Nobody was confident and bold enough to talk to the king. After that, they were grumbling until he shouted. Everybody keeps quiet.

Where is the barou, he asked.

Barou came out and genuflected.

What about Ethan? I hope he accepts my request. The king asked with a curious face. Barou was frightened while looking at him. Looking at him is the same as looking at death or hell. This situation brought silence in the room until it was broken by barou. After Barou, he was frustrated because of the unexpected mission which he had set up for him. He wasn't expecting a relationship with a heavenly princess, but you told me suddenly and forced him into this act.

Do you deserve death? Do you not have respect for the king? One of the Lords solicited. Flames of fire swirled in a graceful manner around his body as he unleashed his power. His anger was showing obviously on his face.

Author's note: it was a graceful manner because he was angry.

The fiery prince entered the meeting room and all the Lords, aroused and bowed down deeply, went to him with a statement which they said together, Welcome my prince.

Alamah, what are you doing here at this hour? The king asked questions with great shock.

Alamah was the boy that the queen gave birth to and he was a boy that Ethan counted as his younger brother. Alamah also possessed the power of fire, which gave his father great relief. He was capable enough to become a king, but the angels must lose their powers before enthronement.

Father, I wish to go to the mortal realm to destroy that stupid, rude and disrespectful girl that was called the daughter of the heavenly domain. He exposed his anger without showing any fear. The Lords were not shocked because he had been disrespectful since his childhood and every day he grew. This stupid attitude increases. This makes the king concerned. The next King that can't control himself. How does he want to rule the demons?

Alamah, you need to chill-lax because the heavenly domain has power over us. We can't defeat them unless we have patience. One of the Lords spoke out when he found out that the king was speechless.

You can be dismissed now.

The king ordered the departure of Alamah (the prince).

Some Lords left the meeting room and secretly went to an unknown place. Thanks Lords for giving me your support. The Lord of darkness said with a deplorable face. The king is already getting older every year and he will leave his position soon. We can't allow that son of his to become the next king of this realm. What do you think about this situation? The Lord of darkness continued his statement

One of the Lords stood up, representing the other Lords. We agreed with this statement, we can't allow the fiery prince to become the next King. We still prefer Ethan to Alamah. He suggested and faced the other Lords who were nodding their heads in agreement to his statement.

How will we allow an offender to become the king? Does it make sense? The heavenly domain might take over us if we are not careful because Ethan is weak and feeble. The Lord of darkness tried to convince them.

Ethan still possessed the spirit of the phone, which was given to him by his mother. How would you say that he is weak? Who wants to be the demon king except from him? The Lords stood up and shouted loudly.

Calm your anger down. How sure are you that I am not stronger than him? I can be the demon king if you give me more support. That was the main reason that I created this place. You will be the highest in rank and nobody will discourage or disrespect you.

The Lords want that position but it is not everybody that will acquire it. We will give you our support since we are discriminated against in the demonic realm. You are referred to as the head of the Lords and, after the death of the Prince, you have the right to become the king. I suggested that we should look for a reasonable way in order to kill the fiery prince without getting involved or we should not allow anyone to suspect us. I am sure that it will take a long time, but we must do it in order to fulfill your promise.

How do we want to do it??
