"Where the hell is he?" Hallow questioned, deciding to take the walk on himself as he jumped away from Beelzebub's pocket."Can't you sensed where is he? I thought Demons could sense souls."
"That goes the same for you, grim reaper, " reminded Beelzebub as it appeared Hallow had almost forgot that he was a grim reaper and not an abnormal talking chick.
"I can't sense him because there is something that block my power, " replied Hallow to his defense.
"That also apply to me. I can't sense anything, damn it, " cursed Beelzebub.
"If this dark sorcerer is able to block and tinker with our senses, doesn't that mean Gabriel is stronger than us or even Ian?" Hallow asked when he got up to the counter and he bent down to search for Gabriel.
"Stronger than Ian?" Beelzebub repeated with a facetious smile nod he chuckled, "He won't."
Hallow raised his brows, turning to look at Beelzebub and wondered where did he have the kind of confident to say that, "I don't get why Demons are so confident but you know I'm sure even Ian have his own weakness."f𝙧ee𝘄e𝘣𝒏ov𝒆l - 🅽🅽novel
"Other than that lass, I don't see his weakness, " Beelzebub responded with a hum and his eyes looked away to the window where he met eyes with the white bird that settled itself to the thinnest branch of a dry tree."And there is more to him than even himself do not know."
"Wh-" Hallow's words were suddenly stopped when they saw a large red spiral portal appearing beside them and a hand came out holding Ernest whose eyes were wide with shock and horror, appearing to be in a stupor from what he had seen that was similar to a scene that came from Hell despite never seeing Hell before.
Ian's face then appeared out from red portal that was thin as paper, "Catch this. Do your best to protect him, he is our only witness. Elise is waiting for me." And without hearing the next words, Ian tossed Ernest from the portal before it closed and disappeared.
"What happened?" Hallow asked when looking at Ernest who was on the floor. But upon hearing a chick talking, Ernest let out a sharp help of surprise.
"Y-Y-You talked!" And his eyes moved to Beelzebub, "The chick talk!"
"Oh, what's wrong with a chick talking? Look he is the most harmless one in this room considering you have me here, " mused Beelzebub and Ernest decided from that point to not think as he was sure if one more thing was to come and surprise him, he would immediately faint.
Turning behind he saw the unconscious magistrate, "W-What happened to him?" asked Ernest apprehensively, in fear as he could feel something off coming from Beelzebub.
"Just a little sleep, I sang him a lullaby but he seemed to like it more than I thought, " and that lullaby was his threaten, thought Beel."Mind helping us? We are searching for that innkeeper that goes by the name of an Angel, " drawled Beel in a thought as if forgetting the name.
"Mr Gabriel?" questioned Ernest and as he looked around he realize the innkeeper has indeed disappear.
"We do not want him to die, you see. Also, I heard humans usually comes out when another human come to search for them, " Beelzebub spoke.
"And you are not a human?" questioned Ernest to see Beelzebub smile meaningfully and he decided not to ask once again as he could feel the man's eyes lies in between threaten."However, I think we must to go away from here right now. There were black shadows Lord Ian called as ghouls. He killed some but I heard there are still a few-" as if the devil heard his name, the ghouls crawled from the ground, coming toward the door.
"Shit!" Beelzebub cursed, pulling his hand he snapped blue fire toward the group of ghouls.
"Hey Beel! How long do you think you could kill Ghouls for?" Hallow asked upon seeing the frown on Beel's forehead.
"Four minutes, " responded Beelzebub grimly, "Take that two humans and run."
"What the other one can walk on his own-" and Beelzebub turn to loon at Ernest for his face to drop when he saw him fainting."Oh fuck you!" cursed Hallow while jumping down to Ernest. This time he slapped his wings to the human's cheek to wake him up but nothing work."Beel! Do something about my body. I can't bring them this way."
Beelzebub frowned, he wanted to say something when turning his face to the chick when a great idea suddenly come to his mind, "Don't regret it okay?" He smirked.
The white bird who had been watching Beelzebub from afar, decided to fly away when it suddenly got caught between the palms of a person. The bird's golden eyes shifted to look at the person who had taken its body and caught the person's smile.
"What's the rush, my dear friend? Shouldn't we share some talk as an old acquaintance and brothers?" Smiled Gabriel when he had caught the white bird while flying midair with his white feathery wings. His hair that was colored in brown changed to golden and it grew longer to fall on his neck."What do you say, Lucifer?" He hummed with his golden eyes peered down the white bird.
Lucifer inside the bird sighed, "Gabriel." Unlike Gabriel, it was evident how Lucifer didn't welcome his friend's arrival.
"Still remember my name, I see. That's an improvement, " Gabriel smiled, his voice and tone stayed steady and friendly while the crow looked at him with narrowed eyes.
"No thank you, " Lucifer immediately rejected.
"Oh why not?" Gabriel sang with a hint of disappointment, "We haven't seen each other after a thousand years ago. Unless you are in a hurry? Let me guess. Are you curious or worried about the two children who are in the forest now? Don't worry, I am sure they will be alright. If push come to shove I will come there myself and help them. Now to cut my long speech, mind telling me which one of them is your child, Luci?"
