Chapter 9 - Episode 2 - A devotion you desire Sael | Part I

Sael Abezeth

I was exhausted, I wasn't going to lie, maybe it did happen this time, but I really wanted to finish everything later. He may have delegated work to the twins, but he finished everything, the reports, even the official pre-meeting with some commanders from other worlds. The Angels were totally surprised by this, they were going to find out which angel it was, and it would be seen what measure would be taken, they could not do anything for the moment, even if they found the angel, until they saw David's soul. It is because with a single look they could know if he was ascended to angel or reincarnation, and what he saw in David must have ascended further, but he hoped he would not find that angel.

Should I send people?

Will his brother Ramy have joined him already?

If so, would it be royal family?

He should talk to his brother, but now, the first thing was to confess to David what destined means, and Shegal. Before I know it for someone else. He will have to prepare the papers to present David as his official Shegal. Although there is a possibility that David does not want to accept that place; He felt a bitter feeling, something dark in his chest, his mind refused a no, but if he thought of putting him in captivity like a sparrow, he would only get scared and not be happy. He didn't want that for his Shegal.

I took a breath, I needed to go slowly and show him the good of those destined.

- Su Melej, you must be calm, everything will be fine. - Lenx said collapsing in the chair. - Besides, isn't it good? Finally, you have a destiny. —

"Does your majesty have a destiny?" Lenx like me turned to observe the door, in this was Sack, he looked nervous. "Oh, I'm sorry, your majesty, Mr. Ziel dispatched me to be with Mr. David alone. So I decided to come here.—

"Why did Ziel want my brother alone?" I asked confused.

"I don't know, your majesty." I speak calmly, Sack. I observed Lenx who now looked annoyed at Sack; he only had his head down.

"Come on, Lenx and Sack go for the appetizers I prepared, I'm sure David will like it this time." I smiled, last night, I look for recipes and try to make the most edible magma, which I hope to achieve. They had a sweet somewhat choco latoso, but slightly bitter.

"Yes, sir." Sack, don't move away. - Lenx indicated.

I quickly went to the tower, I knew that Lenx would catch up with me soon, but Sack's words turned me around.

Why does my brother behave like this, has he done something to Sack?

Why do you want to be alone with David?

Did David want something?

If that were the case, I could give him everything he asks for.

His brother...?

It's not impossible, he's his brother and they have a unique brotherhood, no one could rival her.

Besides, they all knew the importance of a destined and his Shegal. His brother would never do something like that, he would never harm or betray him.

"Your majesty." I speak a few steps back before entering the flower garden. I watched Lenx excitedly, while Sack watched everything excitedly. -

Oh, right, he's forbidden this area.

For this time I would leave it.

"Sir... What is this white tower?" Whose is it? It's from the seventh sin, right, why is she locked up? - Sack asked, slightly anxious.

He felt a bitter taste, and a little discomfort. Before the questions, he spoke as if nothing had happened, he looked at Lenx who looked pale and mortified; apparently, he did not tell him the rule that it was forbidden to talk about that place. He took a breath and spoke in a calm but sharp voice, he didn't want him to get involved in matters beyond what corresponded to him.

"Sack." Don't ask any prince about this tower. No one, it's taboo, you'll have a session with Lenx later. And your Lenx will have a warning for doing a mediocre job. - He growled annoyed.

"I'm sorry, Melej." Lenx whispered.

"I'm sorry, Melej." Sack followed him.

When I arrived at the library, I heard them talking about the sub-zones, I observed how fascinated they were with their talks. I wouldn't deny it, this bothered me a little, but he was my brother and my destiny, I'm sure everything would be fine, they just get along, but I felt an insane need to have him by his side, to hug him possessively.

"I'll go ahead." He said.

❈─────•✦•SUN•✦•──────❈

"Shall the class start?" I asked now, that David had devoured the magma sandwiches. I watched sideways how Lenx and Sack accommodated several cushions and commands where I indicated. -Lenx and Sack close the curtains, I want David to observe everything, what I will show him. I don't want interruptions unless it's strictly necessary.—

"Will you do it like Ziel?" David asked excitedly.

-Even better. -I laughed, while I snapping my fingers and the furniture of large books settled on the walls dodging the others. - It will be bigger. -

"Great!" David shouted, excitedly.

To be a priest in hell he seems excited for this place, although if he remembers badly before being a priest, in his soul of life he said that he was an investigator. I would ask him more directly, he prefers that to spying on a book, although he was very curious about his whole life, he felt that looking at the book of his life was impolite.

-Lenx, also prepare that in my room please, and the gift I will give to David. - I said, remembering the new silk suit for him. - Withdraw if you're done. -

"Yes, your majesty." They both exclaimed.

Without saying more, they both withdrew silently. I got up and offered my hand to guide David; He was a little shy, but I'm sure he took it. Between the mantle of cushions and fabrics we settled warmly, I snap my fingers and illustrate the whole place. In the center were the main areas and subsequent the sub-zones one and two, but behind, in the walls of the room and in the rest of the place, both floor and sky, was a complete black abyss with small stars.

I turned to look at David and he was fascinated with the sight, he looked totally captivated, he wanted to see more of that enchanted look, so I snap my fingers again and created small galaxies, that only excited David more.

Oh, fuck.

This was bad, it was unforgivable for him. There was something that wanted to come out of me, something strange, something that should never be said by the ruler, something deep, that his father could even have punished him with whips. But I simply wanted to come out of my chest, and it was a plea, a unique plea, a raw plea, it was despair and pain, I wanted to implore and ask that being, to give David.

❈─────•✦•SUN•✦•──────❈

Oh, my God, creator God, please, I beg you, just leave him by my side, let him love me, let us love each other, please, Mr. Creator, I beg you, I beg you with all vehemence, I ask you on my knees, I prostrate myself before you, just allow me to love me, accept this place and stay with me.

I love him, sir, I love him in a natural, pure way, that every part of my body asks for him and I cry for him.

Please, listen to this silent prayer, this prayer that comes out of my heart, allow me to be by my side, I beg you with the humility of this being.

I know I'm not the best, I know I come from a line of betrayal, but I beg you, creator of the vast universe, to accept this passion that is born of me, of my poor soul, give me the opportunity to love us, without fear, without a doubt.

Give him the security and strength so that he accepts the place, so that he accepts my home, the city of Diel, that he accepts my gifts, caresses, my happiness and my love, that he accepts everything from me, but without him getting hurt, without him being damaged.

Oh, creator and protective God, please.

I beg you, I beg you.

Let him see beyond his beliefs, let him see this place, please, sir, just give me this and I will be at the mercy of this place and I will protect all the worlds you want, just give me David, give me my destiny and my lover.

❈─────•✦•SUN•✦•──────❈

"Sael, are you okay?" David asked. Somewhat worried, I noticed his hand on my arm.

"Yes, I was just thinking about how your eyes shine at this." He said calmly, and as it was natural, David blushed slightly.

That was good, with the magma food I was gradually generating a body similar to that of humans. I lay down and patted my side; he shyly did it the same way. I watched him for a moment, it was a pleasure to always look at those honey-colored eyes, this brown hair, that puppy look, although for humans David was someone already mature, compared to his age, David was naturally young.

I laughed softly when I saw how he constantly turned his eyes away from my face, I knew it made him nervous, but I didn't want to pressure him, not yet. With calm and patience I had to get closer to him. Humans or souls did not feel the same passion and bond as demonic beings or beings of higher rank.

"Well, we'll talk first about the main zones, and the Sub zones." I said, remembering completely next to him and looking at the huge illusory image. "Diel's citadel, I think my brother told you the name of why Diel." I turned around and he nodded. "Well, then let's start with the Sub zones."

David, although this is the main area, each area has its history, it was formed with years of regrets and pain, constant struggles, it is not only a sub zone, because yes, it has its meaning, and it is good to know, to honor and respect the events that happened.

Every place has memory and life.

Sub-zone one is the Plaza de los Lamentos. When the city was completely built, we intended this area for the judgments of souls, not only for them to hear the torments of the floors under the large circle. If not for them to look around, and see that this place was not only punishment, damage, fire, whips, as humans say, but to see that it was a home, a city, give them a hope of redemption and forgiveness.

Of course, it is only to say that the most sinful souls could never go up there, so they could never enjoy that rest. They are places where souls cry out in silence for a better life. That's why it was called the lament square. Many souls ask for clemency and forgiveness, but sometimes that forgiveness and that clemency that seems pure hid something else, and that was just a trace of arrogance and benefit of not being hurt, of living and sinning again.

There is sub zone 2, it is the tower of sighs, I think you saw it when you entered, it was the huge tower that reached almost beyond the castle itself. That place is where souls that are more innocent, but have a touch of sin, are judged. For example, a little boy who accidentally set fire to his home, and ended up dying in the fire, but took his little brothers and their pets with his life.

The child is judged in another way, not in a cruel and ruthless way, but in an honest way, that can understand what happened and can understand that they will not be punished in a brutal way, on the contrary, many of these cases are always almost 90% of them are sent to heaven to reincarnate in a healthier way. Instead, the other 10% are people who did it on purpose.

I think that in their worlds they call them sociopaths, although it is not an excuse, it is understood that they are not born with certain cognitive states that help them understand emotions. Yes, they are punished, but they are also helped to understand and it is expected that their reincarnation is now in the right way. If not, the cycle continues.

Although David, you should know that not all these people are "bad" as they are called, there are sociopaths who have reached the heavenly kingdom, because they did not harm anyone, on the contrary, they used the people on their side as studies, making analyzes of their lives, as they should support and help them. In itself the human being is a very different species in the mental aspect, I do not say that in the kingdom of the underworld there are no similar people, or with other characteristics, but we have lived more, much more than humans, that their life returns to 100 years at most. Then we identify them quickly and help them adapt and understand. —

"How do they identify them here?" David asked. "Aren't they called sociopaths here?" Do mental illnesses exist here? - he asked with real curiosity.

"No world is disease-free, although human diseases are a mystery. There are many terms that we do not know, not because we want to, we are simply different species. Los Angeles have a disease called surmion. That is characterized by immersing themselves in an improper state, often by a sin or guilt that eats them, no one has come out alive from that state. Finally, the angel is killed.

On the other hand, in the demonic world, the most dangerous variant we have is immersion. It is a state of frenzy characterized by not having reasoning, when that happens, they are executed quickly. That state is latent and dangerous, we have not been able to get anyone out of their state, that is why it is constantly round, we do not want it to become chaos in case it happens.

As we identify them, they have similar tendencies, here they are called Arquelios. We never knew why they were called that, our grandfather called them that, and that's how they were, but they start with small things, in the demonic world every child is given a pet to take care of and protect, many times this is a reason to celebrate his birth, that's why he is given something precious, which is life itself. But unfortunately, in some cases these children end up killing or torturing animals, we have thought about leaving this tradition, but if we do, we would have to interact with other children and they would end up murdering the minors.

That's why Ascelin, one of the twins, has created a spell. When an animal is in danger, a notification and the name of the child in charge will be automatically sent. Even if this spell will be implemented in a month, at least it is proven and safe for everyone. -

"I understand." David sighed. "Share we going?"

-Yes. - I snapmed my fingers and quickly changed the images. - We will travel to the shadow area, called The bastion of shadows. This place has 2 sub-areas, the Necropolis, and the Dolorosa reservoir.

"Painful?" David asked confusedly.

-I'll tell you the story, just wait. - I said while illustrating the Necropolis, an endless cemetery of corpses, full of mausoleums. - The Necropolis area is a complete cemetery. As you can see, it is full of corpses and mausoleums. This is not a pretty story, but it is a significant one. Many of those corpses are from the Second Great War. There are corpses from all over the world, the problem is that the calamity that killed them, left them unrecognizable.

When we wanted to classify them, or I found out what beings they were, we couldn't, the smell was so strong at that moment, that it could not be realized, and this place was created. We couldn't even move their bodies, they were completely stuck, that's why we created the place of Necropolis. From time to time some beings from other worlds travel to honor this space. Although it is not the only world with such a site, this was the main area of the war. —

"I'm sorry about this, it must be difficult for those who lost their families." David spoke, with that calm priest's voice.

"Yes, it was, they suffered a lot, they cried for a few days, regrets did not stop being heard, but it also gave us a purpose and it is to protect ourselves, and that it never happens again."

I scratched, and turned to look at David. He looked at the place with a lot of sadness, a lot of sorrow agency, as if it were his family who was there. Although from what I read, I think David would dance, you must feel sorry. I shook my head to focus.

"David, the Dolorosa swamp, is a story a little more complicated to explain, but I'll tell you. As you can see - I snap my fingers. - It's a somewhat viscous place and full of darkness, that place became like this because of the death and resentment of a heart. Unfortunately, that place has a story of a betrayed and lost romance David... Unfortunately, the elf who lived there fell madly in love with a guard. That guard's name is Luca Dium. The current baron, although this romance was hundreds of years ago, was marked in that place, it was a bitter and tragic romance, Luca, he was an exemplary guard, of great caliber, he could advance much further if he had not been blinded by greed, unfortunately that was his greatest desire to ascend quickly, from a guard to a baron. -

"How was it?" David asked.

"How was what?" I asked, although I knew what I meant.

"The romance that led him to be like this." David indicated towards the dark and viscous place.

"Are you sure?" I asked doubtfully. It's a cruel and brutal story.—

"Yes," he said firmly.

"Good. Tell me if you want me to stop," I said, "and he nodded firmly. "They had been courting each other for months; of course, the whole city of Diel, knew that the royal guard of the fifth division was visiting the young elf Adle. Their romance was pure and beautiful. Luca always brought him some flowers, or some dessert without animal content, or fresh fruit. Of course, this was deteriorating, the visits decreased and it was because Lucas began to attend certain dances of the Dium house. Every week there was a party or an event, and from one moment to the next, months after the visits decreased and disappeared completely, Luca Asalan's engagement with the Daughter of Baron Dium was announced. Luca would take the surname Dium and marry the Baron's daughter. -

"That's very sad, but you said it was cruel and brutal." David sighed. "Something else happened, didn't it?"

"Yes, and I think it was the first time I doubted whether it was worth saving this place..." He sighed. "The Baron of Dium ordered to kill Adle, since he kept calling and looking for Luca, who was still returning to him, but refused to leave Dium's daughter, which was an offense to the baron.

Baron Dium finally sent people to kill the elf. What Adle did to him was unforgivable, his form so brutal that they beat him, burned, cut, even his ears. His most sensitive part of all, are his ears and his intimacy. But the way they assaulted him was enormous; not only that, he was abused for nights and days. The problem is that no one knew, because the place had been closed.

This place became a capsule, unfortunately it was raped and cannibalized. I personally investigated the crime, and when I saw that place, his body, I wondered if it was worth saving this place. It was brutal, he didn't die in a peaceful way, not even brutal, if it wasn't a ruthless, cruel way, without any emotions, and I made sure he had justice. When I communicated with the world of the elves, with the leader Alkas, I informed him everything without omitting details, the leader's fury was immense, and I could not give him peace even if those people went to the abyss, so I offered him a curse, a curse that devoured that whole place, the leader accepted, with a huge regret I accepted it.

Adle's body is there for the memory and constant memory of Luca de Dium, and that body has the curse to devour everything that committed the sins they did to Adle. His body is the complete curse; he has devoured all that place.

I'm sure you're asking yourself: What about his criminals? Each of them is in that place, he is absorbed in that swamp, living every day what Adle lived, every sin they committed they relive every day, by the eternal torment, they will have no forgiveness, they will have no mercy, they are still alive, even after more than seven hundred years, they are still there living and remembering that day completely. And no, their minds won't be fragmented, I made sure of that. They will pay those for the eternity of the universe, but the only sin Adle did was to love an imbecile like Luca.

And Lucas is slowly and painfully paying for this. He has asked hundreds of times to remove or purify Adle's tomb, and he has been denied, since he gave that place to the leader of the Elves, Mr. Alkas to avoid that very thing, his cleaning and purification. Luca looks at that place every day and remembers Adle. Every day he will see that place and remember it forever, even if Luca dies, I will send him there. I won't doubt, I won't tremble at all. That space will always be for Adle. —

"Oh, God!" I'm very sorry about that. God, how cruel, I can't believe they did that to him. -David looked at me with great sadness, I stretched out my hand and carefully stroked his head, trying to calm him down.

"Don't be overwhelmed, David," I said and he nodded trying to control his emotions, his eyes were with a strange glow. "That's why I didn't want to tell you, let's change areas better, okay?"

"Okay." But even so, tell me every story," he said decisively.

"Good. Now we're going to the Soul Market." This is divided into two sub-zones, sub-zone five and sub-zone six. Sub zone five, which is considered the street of the gales, is like a market in the human world, a market of buying and selling, where fragments of souls, dark pacts, spells and sorcerer in general are marketed. The truth is that some are prohibited, that's why inspections are always done in that place. There are no exact dates, to prevent them from sneaking, that's why there is not so much of that type of content.

Then there is Sub zone six, which is called the crypt of secrets, it was a creation of underground labyrinths, to prevent the clandestine invasion of demons, it is full of arcane rituals, and as many traps, and hidden threats. Preferably, David, that you do not enter here, well, to any area with danger; even so you can go, but with guards or with me, preferably with me.

With that in mind, we move to the fortress of the eternal. This is a little more public, almost everyone can go, even young people. But this is more than anything in sub zone eight. As I said, it is called the zone The fortress of the eternal, and sub zone seven is called the room of the mirrors. This room was created by Ziel.

The problem is that Ziel created mirrors with abyss materials, so these mirrors came together with demonic energy and magic. What produced that you could see deformed reflexes, sometimes they are so brutal that they impact, and then there are those that distort reality, and make you fall into an abyss of imperial glory, wealth, or an illusory love.

Those areas are almost closed, but not prohibited. People who mostly go there go to remember loved ones or motivate themselves, although they always end up affected in one way or another. Sub Zone eight, is the great hall of judgments; usually here the ancient beings of the underworld, and the nobles are judged. Although the nobles have not produced chaos after the execution of Baron Dium, that was a splendid execution, and all those who opposed were subsequently executed as well.

"David, do you want to stop?" We still have eight sub zones left—I asked, seeing him so immersed in a fixed point.

"No!" Keep telling, it's very interesting - he exclaimed while pointing at a point of the caravan. - What is that? -

"Oh, that's roulette, it depends on what punishment it will be given, that's optional, you can even be released with exile, it's never happened because I have a spell in it. Noble bastards don't deserve forgiveness.—

"That's surprising."

"Well, let's continue," I said. We are in his area, he trembled from the forbidden kisses. - I was a little embarrassed before this. - It sounds romantic, but the truth ... Well, if it is, you will understand when I explained it in sub zone 10. -

"It sounds nice, but tragic," David said.

"It's not tragic, it's just that Ramy had a lot of individual activity there," I said embarrassed.

"Ah, Oh...!" Puff...! -David ended up bursting into a laugh, a glorious laugh, his eyes shone funny before my words. - I guess that's it before he fell in love, right? -

"Exactly. Well, let me tell you - I became comfortable - sub zone is the veil room, a space where reality vanishes and everything is an illusion. Normally, it is used to help the little ones guide themselves to other worlds, but after thirty hours, that place becomes a dating center for a somewhat more adult romance. Anyway, there's a little bit of everything in that place.—

"Oh, well, then.., I'll try not to go, yet," he whispered the last thing.

-Cof, cof. -I couched loudly before his gaze towards me. I swallowed nervously and spoke. -Later, maybe, the two of us alone.

"It seems to me," he smiled excitedly.

"As I said." The sub zone ten, is the chamber of promises, in that space comes the pacts like the curses, but also that space is where the destined get married, any destined, whether of the royal family or a simple commoner, they always get married there, because it is he ratified towards all the worlds, and his acceptance completely. —

"Sael... What is destined?" And...? Am I really your destiny? I've heard it name several times. - David whispered looking at me with bright eyes, with something strange, but at the same time nervous, with fear.

My stomach tightened, I didn't expect this, he should have been more careful, he should have avoided naming that, but he was so immersed telling the story of this place that I didn't notice it. He took a breath and sat between the pillows and blankets, David quickly followed him, sitting next to him.

"Sael?" he asked, taking my hand. "Just tell me everything, I'll listen completely." "Well, just listen until the end, please." I begged.

"I'll do it."

"The destined are people united by destiny itself, the glory of the creator and the universe, that's why..." I couldn't continue because David squeezed my hand.

"No, I want you to tell me that it's me for you." I want to know what it means for you as a destination, I already understood that it is something that must happen yes or yes. But what am I to you? - I ask carefully.

-For me? - I whispered, and I looked at him, I looked at him seeing my life in him, I looked at him absolutely with all my emotions. -
