She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 566: Attack by Enemies

In Lilith's mansion, Damien was tailing Lilith while carrying the cow which Ariel had gifted him. It looked like Lilith was in a hurry to go somewhere. And Damien was practically running to catch up with his mother's long steps.

He had already asked a lot of questions to his mother. And he still continued to do so, "Mother, don't you know when Ariel will come to play with me?"

Lilith answered without even looking at Damien, "No, Damien. I don't know." She sounded a bit agitated by the constant questioning of her son.

"Nothing bad happened to her, right?" Damien asked again.

He had thought that Ariel liked playing with him. So when she didn't come back for about a week or so, a lot of things were playing in his mind. He hoped that she wasn't sick or injured.

Lilith felt the sadness in her son's voice. So though she was in a hurry, she tried to console him. "Ariel must be busy at her home, Damien. Or her father might be busy. They will come once they are free of any obligations. Till then, why don't you play by yourself?"

But Damien refused to listen to her and kept on following her.

Lilith stopped for a second and took a deep breath in. And she asked her son, "Don't follow me now, Damien. It's dangerous where I am going. Please go back to your room." She then kept on rushing forward at an even faster speed.

However, Damien also ran to catch up with Lilith's pace. He abruptly stood in front of her and almost got stepped on by his mother.

"Damien!" Lilith then shouted a little aggressively, "Go back to your room. Now."

But Damien half-shrugged his shoulder and said, "No. I don't want to stay in my room and play alone. I want Ariel. Will you take me to her home? I want to see her home. And I want to see her."

"Damien!" Lilith sighed and angrily walked past him while saying, "How many times do I have to tell you that you cannot go to her home. She lives on a different realm called Earth. We, the beings of Hell realm cannot go there."

But Damien couldn't help but think that his mother was lying to him. He ran behind her again and asked, "But didn't you say that you visited Earth realm a long time ago? You are also from the Hell realm. So how could you go to Earth and how can I not go there?"

"Because we cannot go there without being summo…"

Lilith was interrupted by one of her guards who came dashing inside the mansion.

"Mistress…" he huffed and puffed and shouted in an urgent voice, "We need you to come with us right away. We cannot hold that ancient demon for much longer. At this rate, he will destroy the barrier and the other fries will wreak havoc."

Lilith creased her brows and clenched her fists. And she roared in fury, "That bastard is going to die today. Let's go!"

Lilith instantly vanished from there while the guard dashed outside.

And Damien was left there all alone in the mansion.

Only a few guards and servants were there. And everyone was busy making sure that all the entrances of the mansion were locked and secured. They didn't want the enemy clan of demons to sneak inside the mansion if they managed to run past the barrier.

Damien sighed and then held the hoof of that toy deer. He looked into its eyes and asked, "Cow, when will your master come back to meet me? I really wish I could go to her home instead. That way I could go and meet her whenever I want."

He then furrowed his brows and thought, "How did my mother go to the Earth realm? I should also be able to go there. Maybe I should ask someone else. Maybe they know the path."

Damien wasn't that mature to grasp the concept of realms. So he just thought that Ariel's home was within a flying distance. At most, he thought that Ariel's father had also put up the barrier around their home just like his mother had.

So, with the thought of asking for the path to the Earth realm, Damien walked out of his mansion.

He was so stuck on meeting Ariel that he wasn't perceptive of his surrounding like he used to be. He had also failed to notice from his mother's earlier conversation with her guard that their merry village was under serious attack.

A horde of lower-level rowdy demons, led by a greedy ancient demon was just outside the barrier. The lower-level demons just wanted to fight for fun while their leader wanted more territory, wealth, and more followers under him.

Damien was thinking of going to meet an older demon friend of his in order to ask the direction. And after a while of walking, he finally realized that something was wrong.

The roads that used to be full of demons were almost empty. He wasn't getting glares like usual. And for some reason, the demons who were around him were walking or flying in a hurry.

"What's going on?" he asked one of the demons who had stumbled right next to him. "Why do you look so scared?"

And that skinny demon replied, "We are being attacked, master. Mistress and the other strong demons have gone outside the barrier to fight that greedy Mammon and his minions. And the others are standing near the barrier and are protecting it from the inside."

"Mammon? It's him again!" Damien's brows twitched upon hearing that name.

That demon then said in a worried voice, "The likes of us who cannot fight are asked to stay inside our houses. You should also go back to the mansion, master. If they find out that you are our Mistress' son then you will be in a lot more danger."

Damien smirked and said, "That is if they manage to break the barrier and come here." He was confident that the barrier that was put up by his mother was unbreakable.

However, as if to prove him wrong, a loud explosion sound resounded in the air. And that strong barrier that was protecting their village crumbled down, exposing all the houses and the weak demons who were inside.

"Oh no! No, no, no…" That skinny demon grabbed his tail with his hand and ran at the top of his speed.

Damien could hear the battle cries coming from a distance. The ground began to vibrate softly. And he could see a group of demons with wings far in the sky. Some of their own demons were also in the air and were fighting those enemies.

But a few of the enemies were still managing to escape and get closer to the village.

Damien saw one of the winged demons pointing at him and then a few of them heading directly in his direction.

It finally settled in Damien's heart that he was in grave danger.

Damien couldn't decide whether to run back to his mansion or whether to seek refuge in the house nearby.

And before he could decide, he saw a portal-like shadow opening right in front of his feet.

Right before Damien's eyes, a huge clawed hand popped out of that shadow and came straight for his foot.
