"Two gremlins..." Lilith murmured to herself.
"What do we do with them, Lilith?" the girl asked while pressing my head even harder.
"Just leave them, they don't matter to us in the slightest," Lilith said indifferently, walking ahead and leaving the girl behind. "Whatever you say!" she added, giving a kick to the head and letting out a giggle as she left behind. Completely dazed, I brought my hands to my head, which throbbed with pain like hell... a red substance started to drip out. "Damn...
bitch..." I muttered through gritted teeth. "Wait...!" I tried to stop Lilith, but the words wouldn't co out. I could only watch as Lilith's figure disappeared into nothingness.
"That hurt," I heard Ann's pained voice. Turning around, I saw him with one hand on his head as he approached, shaking his head. "We got lucky..." He wiped the blood off with his dirty hands and stayed silent for a few monts. "Let's keep going... we don't have ti," he said, continuing in the direction where the demons and Lilith had appeared. I followed him.
"What's going on?" I finally asked.
"A war... for survival," he sighed. "Against who?" I asked, intrigued. Ann looked at with wide eyes. "Against ourselves. Demons fighting demons for supremacy.
We were really lucky they didn't devour us..." He lowered his head a little.
"Food..." My eyes widened. "In ancient tis, demons ate each other to survive. From that cannibalism, demons of imnse power were born..." Lilith's words echoed in my mory. "Ancient era?"
"No, well... it doesn't have a na yet, but so are starting to call it the Chaotic Era," Ann said as he walked. "We don't have much ti," he murmured to himself.
"What do you an?" That was the second ti he'd said that... Ann seed to ignore and kept walking. "We need to get to a place, it's the only way... if we could have it in our hands..." His voice was full of desire. Still confused, I asked, "Get what?"
"The fla! What else? It's the only thing that can break our chains, the only option we have..." His voice gradually faded.
Minutes passed in silence after that conversation. We were walking through what looked like a wasteland of red earth, almost like a desert. Ann looked up. "Let's take a break..." he said, sheltering himself under a rock, sitting on the ground. He seed lost in thought.
I sat next to him.
"Ti's up..." Ann's voice sounded distant. Looking around, the world went black...

"Oh, you woke up..." I clearly heard Lilith's voice, way too close to . Opening my eyes a bit, I could clearly see her red eyes and her white hair cascading down like a waterfall. "What are you doing...?" I asked, confused. Now that I think about it, I've been completely lost for the past few hours, or however long it's been. Frowning a little, I set aside the fact that I feel a bit odd...
it's actually quite comfortable. I an, the position I'm in... my head was resting on Lilith's lap, and I felt a soft touch on my head.
"Interesting... truly wonderful..." Lilith's sweet words snapped out of my daze. The gleam in her eyes was quite dangerous! I quickly stood up, even surprising myself. Stumbling a little, I nearly fell. Adjusting my balance...
like I said, I feel very odd, like the body I'm in isn't completely mine. Also, I feel a bit taller, and more... how can I put it? Good? Like my body is much lighter and I feel incredibly strong... I feel better than ever, admiring my own body.
"Admirable..." Lilith didn't care that I abruptly stood up. She also stood, faster than , and I could feel her breath right in front of . "You really did it... you evolved... I can't believe it..." She extended her hand. "Let touch you...
better yet, give your hand," she said excitedly. Without thinking, I just extended my hand and let her touch , not thinking it would be a good idea to refuse, seeing how happy she was.
Lilith carefully took my hand, closed her eyes, and instantly, I felt a warm energy. After a few seconds, she let go of my hand and stayed silent for a mont before pulling out a small notebook from nowhere. She made a few notes and then smiled innocently. "Would you give a piece of your flesh...? Please?" She clasped her hands together as if she were begging.
A chill ran down my spine, and I took a few steps back. "You can't be serious..." I said with a nervous smile. Her eyes were terrifying. She slowly shook her head. "Not at all. I want a piece of your flesh to run a few experints..." She looked up and down.
"Don't you notice anything strange... aside from your physical appearance?" she asked. I thought for a mont... honestly, no. "No... not for now, I suppose."
"Well, upon looking... or rather, attempting to glimpse your soul... it's now divided into three parts: demon, vampire, and human. Before the evolution, your soul was made up of 50% demonic, 40% human, and 10% vampiric... but now..." she looked above my head. "It's changed, a shift: 50% demonic, 45% vampiric, and 5% human...
your humanity has almost completely disappeared, and yet... I can't sense even a trace of dark aura from you... it must be because of that fla..." Lilith murmured to herself. "Also, you're much more attractive than before..." she added with a coquettish smile and a chuckle. "So, will you give it to or not? If you do, I'll owe you a favor.
What do you say?"
After thinking about it for a mont, having her owe a favor would be quite beneficial. Besides, without her help, I'd still be struggling to figure out how to enter hell... "Alright, but make it quick."
"Done!" she bead. In her hands... was already a piece of flesh. "Wait, where...?" I was shocked. When did she do that?! I quickly checked around my body.
"You don't have any damage, don't worry. Besides, the wound is already fully healed." She tucked it away in her ring. "By the way, it's Monday afternoon..."
No way...
