"What an honor!" Xue Lin said. She noticed that her throat was dry. She had no Bible, Cross, or Holy water to fight against a demon. She felt completely naked.
"Are you mocking him?" The guy named Balthazar came forward and slapped her. He put a lot of strength to it. As a result, Xue Lin’s lips cut and blood started to drip.
Puja aka Legion said, "Careful, Balthazar. I don’t want to kill her yet. We have a use for her in the future."
’This is getting ridiculous.’ Xue Lin thought. If she wasn’t bleeding and feeling the pain, she would have thought that she was having a nightmare or that it’s a TV show. She still had a slight hope that maybe it was all a joke and someone’s about to jump out and yell that it was all just a prank.
Xue Lin licked her blood and looked at Balthazar. "You killed Lin Tingfeng, didn’t you?"
Balthazar didn’t answer. Legion replied, "I needed a sacrifice and he was the perfect choice. Greed, anger, hatred and lust made his soul rot. Satan was pleased with the sacrifice and gave me more power."
Xue Lin asked, "What about Puja or her husband?" At this point, she was only trying to buy more time. She now wished Ge Chen wouldn’t come here. She doesn’t want him to fall in danger.
Puja aka Legion replied, "After Balthazar summoned me by sacrificing that girl’s soul, I took over her body. It was two years ago. Then I was introduced to a wealthy guy. It’s a perfect opportunity to rise to the top. That guy was greedy. It was easy to trap him."
’So he is dead... poor soul...’ Xue Lin thought. Suddenly she thought of something. "Wait, you are a male demon, right?"
Puja aka Legion didn’t understand the meaning of her question. He answered, "It doesn’t matter for a demon which gender they are but before our death, we were male."
Xue Lin’s expression changed, "But you were inside a woman’s body and married a man and had a sexual relationship with him.... Gross!" She gave him a disgusted look.
Legion asked, "Are you trying to make me angry deliberately? Because it’s working."
’I wish Sam and Dean were here to save me...’ Xue Lin sighed.
Sam and Dean are the fictional characters of the TV series called Supernatural.
[A/N: I love them!!! ]
Legion narrowed his eyes. He suddenly asked, "What did you do to yourself?"
Xue Lin asked him back, "What do you mean by that?" She didn’t understand what he was asking.
Legion looked at her carefully and said, "...I see you cannot see dead like before..."
"!!!" Xue Lin was taken aback. She didn’t know that demon could tell things like that. "Isn’t that a blessing? I don’t like seeing dead people or spirits anyways."
Legion didn’t reply to her. He pondered deeply before looking at her and changed his subject. He said, "You used to say that you wanted to become Lucifer’s bride. What do you think of being his one and only bride? I can promise that it will be grand. Not like the small wedding you had back then."
’Thank goodness I never showed them my husband’s picture.’ Xue Lin was relieved. She replied, "A demon’s promise... really? Those who believe in demons are born idiots. They deserve to be eaten by you."
"But you wanted to be Satan’s bride when you were little. Since then we had eyes on you." Legion said. "Don’t you love Satan?"
Xue Lin shuddered, "Oh Christ! Don’t joke about it. I was a kid and thought Lucifer was God’s favorite angel and was sent to hell on God’s order. Later I realized that he hated humans and that’s why he wanted them to suffer. That’s the reason he guides us to commit sins. When I have realized his true intention, how can I fall for a guy like that? I must be crazy to think that he was a good angel back then.
*Note: It’s not about religion (God or Lucifer). This part is showing that in childhood people make mistakes and when they grow up they learn from their mistakes and correct themselves. These people are called wise because they learn from their mistakes.*
Legion gave her a hungry look. "So, you don’t want to come to our side..."
Xue Lin firmly rejected, "Definitely not."
"Then I have to take you forcefully." He opened his hands and black smoke formed around his hands.
Xue Lin quickly added, "You can’t do that. After that incident, I became a Christian and offered my soul to God. I’m His slave."
The black smoke disappeared from Legion’s hands. "Did you? Don’t joke. I see your soul. It has become darkened with the thought of revenge. You are God’s slave but walking in devil’s path. You won’t be accepted in heaven."
Xue Lin’s jaw tightened. "If my revenge is fulfilled, I will become a sinner but I will save hundreds of people from that person."
Legion smirked. He still had some information about her. "I also remember... you are already ruined..."
"What do you know?" Slowly but surely, Xue Lin’s expression was becoming uglier.
"Did you think I wouldn’t know what happened three years ago? Though I wasn’t able to enter earth back then, I still heard some news." Legion stepped closer. "You were ruined. You are a broken piece. God has abandoned you."
Xue Lin gritted her teeth. "If that’s what God wants for the greater good, I humbly accept it."
"Very well." Legion nodded. "Since you became a Christian, you read the Bible, didn’t you. You see, I was in front of Jesus and he didn’t throw me to hell. Why do you want to defy me? Accept me just like him."
Xue Lin’s mood hadn’t improved yet. "Though I’m God’s follower, there is no reason for me to do what He did. Jesus had let you go but you were still thrown to hell by a human. It means Jesus knew that you would be doomed. That’s why he didn’t take any measure to do something that would happen sooner or later anyway. He is wise."
"Don’t you find it unfair that God created you to obey Him like a slave?" Legion tried to create some doubt in her mind so that she would mistrust God.
