《The First Demon》Chapter 6
Advertisement
The group of Noah's just looked at her wide eyed. Snake-Lilith then stood up and walked to the door, but turned around and said, "That seems to answer your questions Earl so I'll be taking my leave." Snake-Lilith let Lilith take back over her body and Lilith left to see Emilia.
Lilith ran to her friend and when she got to the room Emilia was in, Emilia was fast asleep. Lilith let out a relieved sigh and she slumped into the chair next to the bed. Then a sudden realization dawned on her; Emilia still hasn't fully realized her mother was dead. And Lilith would have to be the one to break that news to her.
"What am I going to do now, Lilith? I don't want to leave Emilia by herself in a time like this." Lilith asked Snake-Lilith.
"I'm sorry Lilith but I have to stay and observe the Noah, and I'm sorry but you're going to have to stay here." Snake-Lilith said monotone.
Lilith shook her head and replied, "I know that's why I was asking. What I wanted to know is how I can keep Emilia here with me."
Snake-Lilith was silent for what seemed and long time before she replied, "Well we'd have to ask one of the Noah about that."
Lilith put her head in her hands and said, "Why can't I think of anything?"
Snake-Lilith stayed silent, and Lilith looked back at Emilia; a tear slid down her cheek. Then a knock came at the door, and in came Tyki. Lilith nodded her head in his direction but went back to looking at Emilia. To think she would have to leave her friend, one Lilith's known almost all her life, because of Snake-Lilith, whom she just knew about not even a month ago. A hand came onto her shoulder and Lilith looked back to see Tyki standing there with no expression what so ever.

"What is it Tyki?" Lilith asked, whipping the tear off her cheek.
"I want you to know that I think I have an idea about what to do about Emilia." He replied.
Lilith looked at him questionably and he continued, "Emilia's mother's death was on our property so it's our obligation to make sure Emilia can run a house by herself, and so she doesn't have to keep traveling back and forth we can let her stay here."
He then frowned and said, "And if you still need to stay here and observe when her lessons are done, I guess I'll have to ask for her hand."
Lilith looked shocked and open mouthed at Tyki. He must've been put up to this by the Earl. Tyki was said to not want to marry anyone so why would he be offering this now if not for someone putting him up to it? Lilith then closed her mouth and looked back at Emilia.
"You don't have to marry her. I'll think of something when the time comes, well not unless you want to marry her." Lilith replied.
She heard him laugh and then said, "It's true. I don't want to marry anyone at this point. But if you can't think of anything and it comes to that point I'll hold you personally responsible." And with that he left.
The next morning Lilith broke the news to Emilia and Emilia wouldn't talk, eat, or sleep, without force, until the funeral three days later. It was strange to have a funeral, especially one on a sunny and peaceful day as this. Many attended and all of them cried; no one expected the Madam to die from an Akuma attack, let alone die so soon.
Lilith never left Emilia's side and Emilia drenched Lilith's right shoulder in tears; even when Emilia told happy things about her mother Lilith never left her side. Lilith couldn't let out any tears for Emilia's sake; she needed someone strong for her on the agonizingly slow funeral.

After the funeral was done and the Madam was put under the ground, or what was left of her (it was a closed case funeral), the Earl, in his Duke form, told Emilia the plan to have her stay at his house till she learned all she needed. Emilia accepted and Emilia, Lilith, and all the other servants packed their things and headed over the Earl's mansion.
Lilith was glad to see her parents again and when they left to pack their things she went back over to Emilia. Sadly she probably would be too busy with keeping Emilia sane to visit her parents too often.
It wasn't until sometime in the Earl's mansion before Lilith had anything she needed to do with the Noah. The blonde woman she saw in the meeting room who know how long ago came to fetch her after Emilia was asleep. Lilith could tell that this woman didn't like her but she had no idea why, she only met her one day before this day.
The Earl was sitting in his usual chair and he looked happy as usual. Lilith smiled nervously and the blonde lady was now gone but a black cat was in her place and she hopped on the Earl's lap, gaining his attention.
When he looked over at her smiled and said, "Ah Lilith, glad to the shadow away from its object."
Lilith laughed nervously and replied, "Well Earl what is it that you wish of the Snake-Lilith and I?"
"You're going to go with Tyki on his mission. He's out in the garden right now." Earl said and Lilith bowed and left.
When she got out to the gardens Tyki was in a nice suit and he looked ready to go when she walked up to him. "You ready?" he asked and she nodded.
He then took her hand and said, "If you let go you'll regret it."
Lilith was just about to ask what he meant but immediately was startled quiet when they lifted into the air and through the bushes of the garden.
