I'm The Devil

Chapter 185: Warding Off The Celestial Council

As Lucifer vanished into the shadows, Cain turned to Mabel, his expression troubled. "Did you hear what he said?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

Mabel nodded, her eyes reflecting the same unease that gnawed at Cain’s insides. "Yes," she replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "It’s... unsettling, to say the least."

"We need to find out more about him," Cain said, his tone resolute. "We can’t afford to ignore this."

Mabel nodded in agreement, her gaze unwavering. "Agreed," she said. "But how do we proceed? We don’t even know where to start."

Cain’s brow furrowed as he pondered their next move. They would need to gather information, to uncover the truth behind Lucifer’s words and his connection to their family. But with so many unknowns and dangers lurking in the shadows, it would not be an easy task.

"We’ll seek guidance from the Watchers," Cain suggested, his voice firm. "They are ancient beings, wise beyond measure. If anyone can shed light on Lucifer’s intentions, it’s them."

Mabel nodded in agreement, her expression grim. "And how are we going to do that, last time that I checked, you are a target of their descendants, so they are likely going to refuse to help us if by chance we do manage to get to them?" she asked, her voice barely a whisper.

Cain’s jaw tightened, his resolve hardening. "Then we’ll find another way," he replied, his tone unwavering. "We won’t let Lucifer’s words go unanswered."

Cain said but right now he has to get rid of this Celestial Council member on his back today before he could think of what to do about Lucifer’s situation.

Cain turned his attention back to the Celestial Council member who had been tailing him, his eyes narrowing with suspicion. He could sense the tension in the air, the unspoken threat that hung between them like a dark cloud.

The members of the Celestial Council fought back with all the power at their disposal, their magic crackling through the air as they unleashed spells and incantations against their foes. But Cain and Mabel were undaunted, their resolve unshakeable as they pushed forward against the onslaught.

With each passing moment, the battle grew more intense, the clash of weapons and the roar of magic filling the air with chaos and fury. But Cain and Mabel fought on, their determination unwavering as they faced down their enemies with courage and defiance.

As the dust settled and the echoes of battle faded, Cain and Mabel emerged victorious, their adversaries lying defeated at their feet. With a weary sigh, they surveyed the aftermath of the conflict, their hearts heavy with the knowledge that more challenges lay ahead.

As the dust settled and the echoes of battle faded, Cain and Mabel exchanged a weary glance, their breaths heavy with exhaustion. Despite their victory, they knew that their enemies would not stay defeated for long, and they needed to retreat before reinforcements arrived.

"We need to go," Cain said, his voice grim as he scanned the battlefield for any signs of movement. "There will be more of them coming, and we can’t afford to stay here."

Mabel nodded in agreement, her eyes darting warily to the fallen members of the Celestial Council. With a determined expression, she tightened her grip on her weapon and prepared to leave.

Together, Cain and Mabel made their way through the carnage, their footsteps echoing in the silence of the aftermath.

"We’ll find a way to deal with them," Cain said, his voice resolute. "But for now, we need to find the watchers, Lucifer has just gotten my full attention."

With that, they turned and disappeared into the shadows, leaving behind the chaos and destruction of the battlefield.

Meanwhile, one of the members of the Celestial Council, battered and bruised but still alive, staggered to his feet and limped away from the scene. His heart raced with fear as he realized the magnitude of their defeat, and he knew that he had to report back to his superiors with haste. Stay tuned with novelhall.Côm
