Chapter 444: Family Ties-III
With the things needed, Malphas went to see how the screen turned to where Ian and the other blonde-haired demon, was talking together. That when finally a question struck to Malphas's head, "But, master—"
"Sheesh can't you let watch and talk later?" Lucifer demanded but then heard the questions keep pouring from Malphas head and he rolled his eyes, "Speak."
"Master Ian is your nephew, milord," the servant started.
"True, I must be blind," Lucifer answered, rolling his eyes again, wondering what his servant was getting at. "He look no less and no add away from and you think I won't rember that?"
"But master, what you are doing, wouldn't it only harm the master?" And wouldn't it saddened Lady Lucy if she was to know that her son was tested to stab himself on his hear—
"Malphas." Lucifer pressed his tone in a chilling way, sending chills to slide down Malphas's spine and knowing his mistake, the servant knelt next to his throne. "I do allow you to speak freely just because I thought it is boring. Sotis world is bland without a fool which why everyone even to the ones who are called as useless or thought themselves as ones is useful to this world, but know your place. Think before you speak and don't even try to bring Lucy again to this conversation."
"My deepest apologies milord. Malphas had overstepped his boundaries," said the servant readily, he was also ready to be punished but Lucifer was in a half good and half sour mood, but was fortunate to be dismissed as Lucifer shrugged his shoulder, shifting his gaze to then look at the screen.
"You won't understand," Lucifer then speak, his eyes watching Ian, his nephew. It was odd because instead of watching a person who would look similar to his dearest sister, instead, he could see a split image of himself. He did rembered how his sister always praised his handso look in which he replied to her in a lukewarm manner, but if she had wished to have a son that would look like him, she should have asked other way. Hell forbid Ian to look like the hideous pig which is his father, but then he should have looked like Lucy, "then at least I would have a reminder of her," muttered Lucifer under his breaths that Malphas who knelt next to him could not hear.
The Duke of Hell heaved a faint breath, "What I am doing now is far form trying to harm my nephew. I have tasked Beelzebub to protect him, instead. In the end, he is my one and only last family mber in this world. I might not be there when he was born but I do treasure him more than you think. He look like , no less."
Malphas had just warned himself less than a minute ago not to speak yet he can't help and asked, "Protect?" Stab and protect seed to be the wrong keyword to use here as they are the opposite of one another.
"The curse affecting Ian is his strongest weapon but also could be his double edge blade that could hurt him. If in case his curse broken because he is know living right next to the Demon's Bride who had been said to kill her own groom," answered Lucifer and he tilted his glass, taking another sip. "I am reminding him of one more thod for his bride to kill him so he would be on his guard."
Malphas was not that much bright, he didn't understand still what took place, "How does that work, milord?"
Lucifer didn't mind the question. His eyes were still on the view of his nephew while he replied. "By stabbing his heart, I should know when his curse is broken and when it is my ti to shine and protect him, coming to heal his wound and also offer him my hand. At this mont after trapping inside that house, I can only guess that he knew I am his uncle."
That quickly? As expected of his master's nephew, thought Malphas. "Master you said before that you would soon find a way to et Master Ian... but when?" If going by what happen now, Malphas doubted his master's image on Master Ian's eyes were great, in fact he must be seen as a shrewd... a strange person. Wouldn't doing this be breaking the good natured relationship?
"Soon," Lucifer ignored the fact that his servant had called him crazy again. "I asked Asmodeus to show a little of the future and I have found my ti to shine very very soon. Levi should ask too if whether he want to co with but unlike it appeared that he doesn't have the face to et his daughter again. How sad," ca Lucifer's bland answer despite.
"There it is the most important scene," said Lucifer when Beelzebub on the screen their eyes were glued on passed the dagger. Ian frowned but took the dagger and slowly he pushed the blade through his chest.
"Master!" cried Malphas when he noticed sothing was wrong. "Sothing strange is happening!"
Ian begin to threw blood from his mouth, the shirt on his chest was quick to spread the red color all over and his brows tightened in pain. At first, Lucifer was waiting for his wound to be healed after all, Diablos all can take this much of a wound; even if their body was ripped to pieces, they would co back to life in a re minute and yet now half a minute had passed but instead of healing the wound, Ian seed to be in a much worse shape.
Lucifer pushed himself from his throne, his thick black brows drawn together as panic seed to appear on his face if Malphas did not see it wrong. On the screen then appeared his bride, using the sa power as Leviathan did before Beelzebub's neck was sliced off and the screen was cut.
"Master! Master!" Malphas continued to cry in alarm when he heard a sharp crack sounded from his master's side, seeing the glass that was on his hand cracked to pieces.
"That silly boy," Lucifer begin to pull his laughter very softly before widening his lips in a curl manner, "He is trying to fool !" and yet he was still uneasy. In a blink, he disappeared from his place and the worried Malphas did the sa by following his master's trace.
Back in White Mansion, Elise slowly organized her breaths, hearing Esther speak, "What do you want with by trapping here?"
"Talk," answered Elise, calmly that she was surprised by her own calmness, "I want to know what is your family ties with or maybe with my father."
