Monarch Of Darkness, Arsene Chapter 119
Advertisement
Stepping out of the carriage, Lilith and I joined the large crowd, watching out at the massive ship with the royal emblem of Asterion appeared. A look of hate could be seen as I could feel a deep-seat hatred run deep within its citizens.
"Disgusting bastards"
"THey birth that demon."
"Die, you fuckers. Give us back our home."
Hearing the venomous words of the citizens of Tulum, I sighed, "My god, Asterion really messed up, huh? I did not think he would be so hated. This Arsene must be a real demon. By the gods, he must be a genius to still be on the run. I hope he can be found and brought to justice. Evil will always be defeated while Justice always triumphs."
Both Lilith and Olivia merely stared at me as Lilith turned her head, too embarrassed to even look at me. "Come on, wife, support your husband." I cutely said as I gripped her hands.
"Not when you say things like that." Lilith exclaimed, "shameless bastard."
Shrugging, I kissed her cheek as she blushed, "Nonsense, come look, I can see Nora...and Edain," I suddenly whispered in shock. It would seem they reevaluated their stance on him. Well, that's fair. I did kinda frame him.
"Ohh, it looks like we got two in one today. It's good Zel is not here. I would hate to see him like that." Lilith said as she gripped my palm tighter.
Looking at Nora and Edain walked side by side, I smiled warmly as they followed behind Grimlor and Victoria. Their faces were cold as they looked out guiltily at the crowd.
"WHY DID YOU NOT STOP THE THAT HELLSPAWN." A man holding a teddy bear bellowed, "He took my baby girl. What was the reason? Why did she have to die? He decimated our capital, for what? FOR WHAT. Wh...Wh...what did she do?"

Bro, I don't think you should blame me for this. Like I said before, blame her for not rolling out the way. Isn't that what you do in that soul game. Shit, stop blaming me. I just came up with the plan and gave the go order, but I didn't hit the boom button. I got zero souls from that little stunt.
Rushing to Victoria, I watched as this man tried to attack but was held down by two soldiers in tears as their two spears were brought close to his neck. A look of sadness flashed through all the student's eyes, as even Grimlor and VIctoria looked away in shame.
"Are you getting a kick out of this" Olivia asked as she stared coldly at me, "Look at what you caused?"
"Your point? I don't pretend not to be a hypocrite, Olivia. I most definitely am one, but don't act all high and mighty. How many corpses are in your closet? How many innocents have died on your rise to power, or was everything given to you? Were you not a slave? have you not already gotten your revenge working under my wife? Was it free, or did some innocents died because of it?"
A deep wonder flashed through her emerald eyes as she clenched her fist, vanishing from my perception. A naive fool, but I do see her point. I do feel sad, but I honestly don't really care enough to do anything about it.
Through this event, Lilith didn't seem to voice her opinion as she just gazed at Nora and Edain with a radiant smile.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked as she turned to me.
"Poison...she poisoned you, didn't she?" Lilith asked as she touched her chest, her fiery hair glimmering like flames as she smiled, "Have you heard of Nine's Torment?"
Shaking my head, Lilith continued, "it was a poison that killed a Giant. It started as a basic poison that enters your blood, corrupting your DNA. It changes your very structure making your own Vital Qi your enemy. It was said that when Valtrex was poisoned, he cried to Ymir. Yet, the more he screamed, the greater his suffering became.

"Eon passed before the poison evolved. No more did his vital qi try to kill him but rather corrupt his thoughts. It learned, evolved before starting to decay his mind. The first to go was his wife. He brutally raped and killed her before proceeding to do the same with his children, afterward savagely devouring their bodies alive. He became so derange his fellow brethren severed his head."
Looking at the loving smile, I frowned, feeling a chill down my spine, "But he lived, even without his head, the poison flowed through his body. Evolving, and so a cycle passed, and he rose out of the grave without his head. Not only had he become deranged, but he had also somehow gained sentience. Remembering everything he did to his wife, his little boy, and girl. To all those, he loved he wailed, but his madness never stopped. He viciously manipulated the new generation taking one of theirs heads for the one he lost. And thus began his lifetime of torment.
"He had to watch in horror as his body by itself would kill those he loved. He pillaged, raped men, children, the elderly, shit there were even records of him having his way with the goats and various other animals. He was finally killed, but his poison had evolved nine times. Hence the name Nine's Torment. Valtrex was so broken I heard a demon say his soul reminded him of those on the second layer of Hell."
"Lilith? That is..." I could didn't even know what to say. It was sick, "But could you really use it on her?"
"I was hesitant before...To lock her in a time of infinite despair, but Is it not fitting, she gave herself willingly to Drar'ethiul. Bael had put things in perspective, Sene. No mercy, those days are gone. "
Taking a cold breath of air, I saw Lilith take out a small white vail, "This is it. It looks pure, doesn't it? Yet, a Giant was all but destroyed due to this poison. It could not kill him, but it was never meant to kill. Just break what you are. YOu will never be a person after this. Your personality, your very Viber, will be erased as you are put down by those you love. and by some miracle, should you live, well, what you were before will fade. "
"Is there a cure?" I asked as Lilith lightly smile.
"No, there was only one case. The Aesir Gods were bored, so they created this poison just to see what would happen. I heard Thor, watched for the beginning to end laughing as one of his cousins smashed the skull of Valtrex, destroying his inner and outer soul. When the inner or outer soul is destroyed, the core is automatically sent to Heaven or Hell. Most Gods of the various myths are not even aware of this. "
Taking the veil, I felt it react to my touch. with a cruel gleam that matched Lilith, I kissed her lips as she melted at my touch. "you may be the best wife ever."
"Cough," Erica said as she sent an odd look at us, "Didn't you buy a mansion? Do that stuff behind closed doors. No one wants to see that."
Shrugging, I placed the vail within the Ring of Bael, "Want to join," I asked as Lilith beamed in joy within arms. With a flash of black light, we faded into the shadows. Leaving those watching bewildered.
