Chapter 1009: Heart of the Abyss I

Sinking deeper into my throne, awaiting Lily's decision as it was ultimately her's to make, my eyes narrowed till they closed.

It almost seemed like hours had passed before my eyes opened to a teary eye Lilith, standing with a downcast expression.

"Sorry," she said, bowing her head lower. "I went too far. "

"You're not sorry," I replied softly, leaning my cheek onto my knuckles. " you could care less… you got your way, and you feel great." Lilith's mouth opened, but before she could speak, I continued. " Don't even try to deny it. I can both see your heart and feel it through our Soul Tether."

The mopy expression of Lilith turned to a smile, and she shrugged," Fine. I don't feel guilty in the least. But can you blame? Do you know the meaning of Izalith? In the ancient tongue of the Abyss?"

I narrowed my eyes. " Did you just look into your infinite knowledge just to prove what you did was right?"

"Like you wouldn't do the same to prove an argument."

"Lilith, leave me be… I'm not in the mood for this back and forth." I whispered, growing so weary of her presence.

Lilith could kill whomever she wanted in whatever harem I had… to me, that was fair, but to name our child… such a thing…

"Sene, I…"

"Lilith, go away… not now," I said firmly, not as a whisper of a woman I didn't wish to speak to but a stranger, and I could feel her heartbreak at my words and heart.

"... Sene?" She drew closer. "You don't mean that."

"Iza-Lith… My daughter… A child is probably one of the only things any creature with true sentience will love unconditionally. Born as innocent as an angel. It's a shame. Such a thing was tarnished by a woman whose only thought was to get me back."

I closed my eyes. I couldn't look at Lilith. She crossed a line. I don't like Izavith… or vita now, I guess. While I don't hate her, I don't want my daughter to have any relationship with her, even if she is to be her Master.

"No!"

My eyes snapped open, and a dark frown marred my lips. I stared, if not glared, at the defiant look of Lilith with crossed arms.

"Lilith is not going anywhere!"

"You…"

"NO! You gave me the right to pick! It's my decision if you don't like it! Take it out on yourself! Not me. Call her by something else if you want. I don't care. To you, she'll be whatever, but to me, she'd be Iza or Izalith."

Jerking myself to my feet, I stormed my way to Lilith, towering over her as she looked at me with large, bubbling eyes filled with tears. Lips buckling as she tried to hold back the tears, a brewing sliver of ice hummed deep within my heart.

"Keep up that defiance and see what I do."

"..."

I snatched her chin, squeezing her chin as her eyes grew wetter," Look away."

"..."

My grip grew tighter, and her eyes became more defiant. "... What would you think if I named our Son after that dead brother of yours… the one you killed? Edain?"

Lilith's eyes broke almost instantly as she backed away, " y-you wouldn't."

"Get out, Lilith Snow," I demanded, walking to my throne.

Noticing she was gone by the time I took my seat, I sighed as guilt and regret came rushing in without regard.

"Fuck… that was brutal."

"I'll say." Said Lily finally. " You both got issues. But I've got a solution for your body… We just need Vita's—"

"Fuck that bitch… we're doing it without her!" I shouted.

"..."

"It's a nine percent chance of survival without her and sixty with her."

"First off. I'm Arsene Fucking Snow. Everything I do is one hundred percent. Now tell me what I need to do."

"I now know where your Son's arrogance stems from. A Prideful King, a Lustful Bastard, and a Crazy Witch. Arcadia is weeping in joy at the disappearance of the three devils. "

That made me smile a bit. "For now at least… but come their return. All of Arcadia will burn. Now tell me, what do I need to do?"

"Head to the heart of the Abyss," Said lily shortly. "it's located…."

"I know… Everywhere. The Heart of the Abyss, like the One, exists everywhere. I've been there a few times." I said to Lily, closing my eyes, and pushed my soul into the attunement that lay deep within me.

Tenebrae, Hell, and the Abyss.

Burning with the Sigil of a bleeding Black Sun that used to be a complex compilation of my soul crest and Liliths at some point. I reached my arm out, knowing this Sigil of the Black Sun had something to do with my Son.

My heart shuttered as my soul space of darkness suddenly spiraled into a nebula of stardust and stars, twisting and turning into a massive oasis of chaos.

"Ah~ Good to be back… Did you know every Abyssal Fiend has been here at least once? But it's only those whose been granted the Abyss Blessing can come and go?" Lily told me in a respectful whisper, and I could almost feel her bow in utter reverence.

Doing the same. My curious mood plummeted as I caught sight of Izavith, kowtowing towards the heart of the Abyss.

"Just saying… she's right there. Just a simple hey bitch! I need help. I'll give you the D for free! Perhaps I'll permit you to marry my Son for—"

"Lily." I coldly snapped. "Shut it.'

"Fine. Fine. Head into the heart… baby."

Heading toward the chaos of the Abyss, I could feel my physical body back on Noctem begin to burn, trickling away as fast as Lily had created it. In seconds I knew my body had died again, and my soul was both exposed in the Abyss and Noctem.

Anyone could come and kill me.

"You could have at least told me I would be exposed."

"I seem to remember some arrogant asshole stating that Arsene Fucking Snow has a hundred percent chance of surviving. Where is that arrogance now?"

"That may have been an exaggeration."

"Ya think? Dumbass."
