Chapter 476: Power of Guilt

Night had come, and gone, with none the wiser that Casia, the Holy City was about to be stain red.

Maintaining my gaze over the golden horizon from the patio of my mansion. My thoughts went back to the Rituals of Damnation, the grimoire that held such demonic rituals. One would be offered a path straight to hell.

"To think I would be using such a ritual, but I need a favor from a few devils. At this point, it matters not if Yura is known as Lilith. Once this wedding starts, the entire board will be set, and it will be an excellent time to knock a few enemies out for good.

Clapping my hands together as if to Pray, a dark smile graced my lips, "Loki, do you hear me? Or will you pretend not to? Interested in a bit of Chaos?"

"Hmmm!" The Snake hissed, wrapping his shadowy arm over my shoulder, yet before my eyes, nothing seemed to be there. "Finally decided to call this Lord? Seeing that you haven't, I dare say why not."

"Have you heard of my wedding?"

"But of course, I never left Casia," He said, startling me. Why the hell was he here?

"I see, so what say you, Snake." I played off knowing what I needed to do. Loki cannot be trusted; shit, even if he is a pawn, the man still could not be trusted.

"I have actually been meaning to get in contact with you. You see, my Lord's wishes a word. But are not willing to use the communication you gave them. You are, after all, under the watchful eye of Aldrich."

Narrowing my gaze till the golden horizon seemed bleak and dead, I chuckled silently.

'Aldrich know where I am?"

"Well, Drar has quite a mouth; all your enemies are on their way Arsene. Many will be attending your wedding, or was that a secret still? But I'm curious how you plan to explain to Tang Feng how Yura and Lilith are the same people." The Snake questioned in my ears.

"You need not worry about that. Tang Will be a bit mad when he learns 'my truth,' but I plan on doing it in a way that will keep everything in check." I explained, not saying much, "Now when can I have this meeting with your so call Lords."

"I will notify you at their earliest convenience." Loki amusingly whispered, allowing his aura to fade from my senses.

So Loki is aware of Aldrich, watching my every move. This will narrow down the scale of power and knowledge his masters have. Not many can simply inform another of what Aldrich is doing. He does have the highest authority in the Bed of Chaos.

Heading into the guest room, I was now forced to use. I made my way downstairs, where the scent of breakfast awaited me. Counting my pawns... I mean, the Chosen I plan on using quite well. I flashed a vibrant smile, like last night never happened.

"You're awake. Come have something to eat." Cleo offered, already stuffing her face with eggs and biscuits.

"Quite the betrayal, Cleo!" I cried, entirely crossed, if not mortified, "You dear, cook and eat without me! How dare you!"

Hearing a snort, Yu jing glanced at me with her empty place that looked licked cleaned. "We called, but you and Arkanos were dead asleep. Wild night? You know she is a child, right? You can't just take her to parties in the dead of night.!"

"So mama Jing, now has say over what I do with my daughter? We merely had dinner together, if you must know, although we met with some unexpected company. What do you all know about, Zando Godfray." I uttered, disgusted by the very name upon my tongue.

"Do not say that pedophile's name at this table!" Sigfried adamantly demanded, stomping his fist against the dining table. "I have never been more disgusted by someone so much in my life than that man. For the Court to even allow him to serve is a sin."

"I would have to agree, that man... He needs to die." I uttered, recalling what I saw when I peered into his heart.

It's a bit hypocritical of me to say this now, but I do care. I'm going to be a father soon. This shit cannot stand in my presence any longer! I am no hero, but even I have a bottom line. Especially when one sets his sights on what is mine.

"Did he--"

"He saw Arkanos last night at this restaurant. A few Gods surrounded him, so killing him was out of the question," I swiftly informed, watching Yu Jing's expression twist into that of a vengeful demon." You all seem to know what type of thing he is; why is he still alive."

"Ever heard the term, no body, no crime?" Said Kurt clenching his fist tightly, "Well, all of Zando's victims have all been... destroyed. and those that were found, for the families to see. Where filled with semen from various sources, just not from him."

"My God, and they call me a monster." I could not help but mock, "Jesus Christ! You people are worst than me. You know but let this shit happen."

"His master covers for him," Sigfried remarked, unable to hide the shame. "Form what I hear. Devil Flame Lynx is a Demon Cultivator and commander in the Court of Nox. He has influence."

"Said a Chosen form a damn Founder." I sneered, disgusted than ever before. "I will not say I am not guilty of letting a few monsters go. No, I admit I have. I was a monster myself in the past. But unlike you all, I was broken in more ways than you can imagine."

"You all held empathy, something I could not feel for the longest, and you did nothing. I acted on my feelings at the time, but I stand by all the fucked up shit I have done in the past. Can you all say the same?"

Studying their faces beginning to darken, I honestly could not find it in me to be enraged. I was simply using their feelings against them. If they took care of Zando, then the heat of Lynx will be on them, and not me.

Although it was shocking to hear that these people who held such empathy and morals in them would allow such a thing to happen, or is it that since they all bonded with Arkanos, they feel some way regarding not doing something about Zando.

"What was the saying again? The only thing necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing." I faintly recalled.

Shaking my head, I left with those final words, leaving them to ponder over what they said and did. Guilt was such a destructive force. It could break even the strongest God, should they not be of strong heart.
