The few hours later, Orpheus woke up to find Nesis nestled in his arms like a little kitten,
A shade of redness was still noticeably seen on Nesis’s rosy cheeks.
He looked at the blissful sleeping face of his half-demon half-angel with affection before lowering his head to give her a light kiss on the forehead.
Although he didn’t want to wake her up, he had to as they needed to talk.
Gently shaking her shoulders, Nesis woke up. Rubbing her eyes, she asked.
”So what do you want to talk about?”
”It’s about your father. Where is your father sealed? I can’t feel his presence, hence my question.” Orpheus asked. He recalled the face of the man who submitted to him for the sake of his family. At first, their relationship had been that of master-servant, but as they spent ti together, it gradually changed to that of friends. He could without hesitation say Lucifer is one of his few friends. Previously, after he arrived, he had checked whereabout and overhead that he got sealed as they couldn’t kill him because of sothing Orpheus did to him as insurance. Above everything else, they didn’t wish to kill him because he could still be used against him.
Orpheus didn’t search where his friend got sealed because he was injured back then; however, now he had completely recovered, it was ti to advance so of his plans and Lucifer being one of them.
When she heard her father’s na, Nesis’s expression darkened, and she beca fully awake. It couldn’t be helped she loved her father as much as she loved her mother, even if with the latter, things have gone awry lately. In the past thousands of years, she had sought every possible thod to free her father even when her mother did nothing; this is one of the reasons for their discord.
However, no matter what she did, she couldn’t succeed. One should know that Nesis was not a weakling. At her full power, she could fight peak level 2 Origin master. Her level didn’t rise since thousand years ago; she was stuck at the early rank level 2. Sothing deep inside her was obstructing her progress, she thought about seeking her mother’s help, but because of stubbornness, she didn’t. She thought her father would have the answer. However, now that she beca closer with Orpheus, she planned to seek his help once he was completely healed.
Finally, calm Nesis answered Orpheus’s question.
”From the information, I’ve gathered. He is sealed in the depth of the Asura’s road. A special ruin under the Asmodeus family. It is almost impenetrable by another family if not under the Asmodeus’s oath.”
Orpheus nodded, and Nesis added just in case he wondered what Asmodeus’s Oath was.
”The Asmodeus’s Oath is a pledge, well, a slave contract to be exact is signed by the families under the Asmodeus rule. Their accepted this oath in exchange for benefits and to survive. Even that traitorous family who changed from Morningstar to Morningstarr. They disgust . I could have erased them if I could, but I couldn’t because they are the Asmodeus family’s loyal and most cherished dog. I almost died when I tried, and they hunted for this. I’m sure they are still waiting for an opportunity to do that.”
”I see. I understand your rage, but I want you to get closer to that little girl Luna. I think she can be used and is talented.” Orpheus suggested. Since the day he encountered her, he had been planning for this. As one of the original mbers of the forr Morningstar family, Nesis had a certain influence on the traitor; this could be used to infiltrate the empire and start his plan.
”Prepare one of your n to infiltrate alongside the little girl. It would help if you took over the underworld on the other side. You have five months.” He added, and Nesis nodded. The serious Orpheus as he gave orders was handso; it excited her.
”By the way, I’m completely healed so that I can help you with your problem, but only if you reconcile with your mother. I’m off then.”
”What?” Nesis shouted, trying to catch Orpheus’s arm, but he was already gone. She couldn’t only sigh.
”Still sharp as always. He knew even without anyone telling him.” She mumbled. She was sure he hadn’t visited her mother, so he understood that sothing wasn’t right from their discussion.
Nesis could only bite her lips and decided to give it a try. It had been five hundred years already. It was ti to stop being stubborn.

The top floor of the Holy Church headquarters, The Pope’s Room.
Currently, inside the room were two individuals; one was sitting in a golden chair with a veil covering her face, and the remaining person was the current Saintess of the Holy Church: Rafaela Marie Claire. A beautiful seventeen years old girl. Blonde hair and blue eyes full of innocence. She was a first-year at the Saint Star Academy, the S class.
The Pope and Rafaela were chatting and laughing happily.
However, the Pope stopped speaking for a mont, and when she opened her mouth again, she asked Rafaela to leave her alone.
Rafaela was astonished by the Pope’s abrupt change; nevertheless, she still obeyed, bowing she left.
Once alone, the Pope stood up and kneeled as she said.
”Welco back, Master; I had been waiting for your arrival. ”
Orpheus ca out from where he was hiding and sat on the golden chair before saying.
”You may rise, co closer. I want to take a look at you.”
After hearing his order, Freya stood up and advanced until she was in front of Orpheus. Then, she removed the veil covering her face; her exquisitely beautiful face greeted the world, illuminating it: golden hair and golden eyes, sothing extrely rare for a Vampire. Orpheus looked at her face for a while before asking her to sit next to him.
”You’re beautiful as always, Freya; I’m happy you are doing fine.”
”Thank you for the praise, Master,” She responded before sitting next to him.
”It has been more than two thousand years, isn’t it?”
”Yes, Master, I’m glad to see you back.”
Orpheus waved his hand before saying.
”Glad to see you too, my mother-in-law.”
Freya was astonished when she heard what Orpheus said; she smiled, extrely beautiful. She looked extrely happy.
He decided to tease her by asking.
”Oh! Why do you look so happy? Dear Freya?”
”Fufufu! Which mother wouldn’t be happy after knowing that the man her daughter has been chasing for more than two thousand finally accepted? There is none. I’m happy for my daughter Nesis.” Freya says while bowing her head.
”Well, I’m happy that you are happy, but I’ll be happy if you two stop your feud. I want a harmonious family. A dispute is inevitable, but it must not be dragged on for too long. You are the adult, so you must see beyond what a child can see.”
”I understood, master. I promise to take of the problem as soon as possible.” Freya promised, hiding her surprise. She knew her daughter the best, and she couldn’t have probably told Orpheus anything, which ans he detected it himself, and if they didn’t take care of their problem, he would be angry.
Suddenly, Orpheus asked Freya with a serious expression.
”So, Freya, what happened after I was gone, and why did you beco a Pope of so human church? m”
”After you were gone, the war continued for one year before it ended. We retreated, leaving the demon race in a half-crippled state; unfortunately, Lucifer was caught along with Nesis and imdiately sealed. We retreated into the forr Angel race continent, one of the forbidden zones, The Netherworld. We keep eliminating everything and everyone that stepped into our new ho. It’s due to this they deed this forbidden zone the most dangerous one. We can’t let the world knows about our new ho, so we continued eliminating anyone that entered our new ho.”
”It was later that Big sister Nix and others ca up with several plans, one of them was to create a Holy Church in the human continent, so we did it, and the second was to create a powerful organization of assassins. It was how the Zeroth Organization and Holy Church ca to life, with these lowly bugs not knowing anything, continuing to live happily. Once, we start another war; we will thoroughly wipe out the human race and demons with our secret forces. Fufufu! ”
Orpheus felt a shiver down his spine upon hearing about their plans. He had left so orders behind, but he had never expected them to do more than expected. Not everything went according to plan because one of his children had betrayed and joined the enemy. He would take care of him later. He said he was seeking freedom to do whatever he wanted; it was why he betrayed them; he would grant him that by sending him into the netherworld. Only one outco awaits traitors, death.
Hiding his rage, Orpheus stroked Freya’s head.
”Good, extrely good. Freya, you will continue doing your job. Let’s stay low for a while. I will contact you later. See you later.”
