Snapping my eyes open, I shuttered as cold sweat trickled down my back. Clenching my arm that was trembling, I bit my lips, allowing the tears within my eyes to slither down.

I could feel their torment, hear their wails, but I was blind to them. Every night I would listen to them scream and beg till my ears would bleed. It was as if I was being tormented alongside them for days and weeks.

"Big sis? Did you have a bad dream again?" Little Arkanos muttered, opening her eyes towards me, near the campfire with misty eyes.

"I wasn't sleeping," I fired off, watching her lower head shivering. I paused, shaking at my foolish reaction, "Sorry, I'm just... It's just I never experienced anything like that. I could smell the ash within the air, the hellish heat tearing at my flesh, and the touch of that beast as he ripped my eyes from their socket, crackling with laughter."

Feeling a soft pat upon my head, I turned to Arkanos standing near me, her eyes more tearful than mine," Big Sis is strong! And a Dream is a Dream!"

I chuckled, wiping the tears I could feel slipping down my eyes. Slightly smiling, I spoke in a warmer tone, "Head back to sleep. I shall be Ok."

"K! Night, big sis!' She cheered, heading back to her spot on the bare floor close to the fire.

Shaking my head, I felt a cold chilling stare upon me. I lifted my gaze towards the deep smoldering eyes that gleam with such a Darkness my soul shuttered while he smiled, with a hint of mockery, with a spear upon his lap.

'What?" I barked, watching his smile deepen.

"Truly the words of children, you know," he whispered, turning his gaze towards Arkanos, who entered a deep slumber the moment her head touched the ground. "To have a dream while meditating, do you not think it's strange?"

"A dream is just a dream."

"So you are taking advice from a child? How the princess has fallen, sorry former princess."

Hearing the crackles of fire echo throughout the forest, I arose, with a stone-cold glint, at that demonic bastard.

Summoning Chaotic Moon, my sword to my side, he merely chuckled, not fearful in the least, "You cried, you know. Calling their names for help. 'Sitri please,' you screamed, 'noooo Yeshimiel, please save me! I want my mom! Please!'

Hearing the mockery in his voice, I shuttered as the demented memories of what transpired clawed its way from within depts of my soul and into my consciousness. I could smell the ash, the brimstone, all return, as well as the heat. The searing heat, that had me screaming for death.

"Stop," I weakly muttered, struggling to stand, taking a step back as a flicker of chaotic qi charged through my body, banishing my demons. Chanting my mantra, a semblance of peace I longed for washed over me.

"You still think it's a dream. Then you are more naive than I initially thought. You are what? A false god, yet you think it's a dream. I truly wish to see the look of humiliation on Aiza's face if she heard your words."

Shooting off my feet away from camp, I felt the chilling breeze upon my flesh and the glow of Yin cooling my mind. Allowing the elements to cool the fire within my heart and soul, I came to a stop at a dark lake.

Six Months. Six whole months of torment since we left the Holy City of Caisa. Every night I would feel the heat of hell.

I wanted to say it was Arsene's or Yura's doing, but no matter what I did during my meditation, it always led to nothing.

Tracing my gaze over the reflection of the lake, I could see my haggard expression, clouded with exhaustion. My power was at an all-time high, but my mind was growing weak. Each day the torment grows more real, more deadly.

"I need to see Master or a Buddist."

Shimming down with light, a small smile appeared upon my lips. This was the only time I felt free of my demons, the only time the hellish torment would not follow me.

Heading north with Lilith, I finally understood where we were going once Arsene dropped the location.

"Are you serious!" I could not help scream, "all this shit just for Yura to get pregnant! You two are not even officially married! What the hell will your parent say!"

Turning to Arsene, Yura mischievously giggled, "She is right, you know, when will you tell Papa?"

"When he gives me the damn throne of Darkness. I do not even know how he came upon such an object that should belong in Noctem." he stated with a casual expression that soon turned solemn, "But if you want a wedding, I think it can be arranged. Shall we invite our enemies as well?"

Throne of Darkness? What is that!

"Why not. They will find out anyway. We should ask Raziel to join as well. We need to congratulate him on his ascension." Said Lilith interlocking her arms with his, "I am sure he will find it lovely. You think your brother and sister will join?"

"Which ones? Truck-Kun and Z or you talking about my family within the celestial palace?"

"Oh, Shit, I completely forgot about them!" Lilith cursed, covering her mouth. "What are we going to do about them."

Shugging, Arsene did not look that worried, "You think the angels will worry about them? or maybe use them as bait."

"definitely bait," She uttered with a grim expression completely in contrast to Arsene's casual expression.

"What are you talking about?" I interrupted quite confused about what was going on. Master had never said anything about another family. "First off, what the hell is this Throne of Darkness?"

"What throne?" asked Arsene.

"Yeah, yeah, what throne!" Added Yura with a cheeky smile.

"The Throne that his Held by the Celestrial King!" I fired off, " You said Yura's father has it! Well, what is it!"

"Ask your master. I have no idea what you are talking about!"
