She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 591: Awe-Struck

Damien's eyes were wide open when he saw Ramon leaping that far and high, while also carrying Ariel on his back.

Ramon landed just a meter away from where Damien was hovering and prepared to jump again.

After his last interaction with the humans of his age, Damien was sure that the humans weren't nearly as powerful as him.

However, just from a single jump of Ramon, he could tell that Ramon wasn't like the others. Also, he felt that the little witch, whose crawler plants had now spiraled up to his thigh, was not someone ordinary either.

And a challenging smirk appeared on Damien's face.

He never got the chance to play with the others in Hell. So, he was thinking of enjoying this moment to the fullest, especially when he was surrounded by the ones who could actually challenge him.

"Grab his body and pull him down, my dragon!" Ariel was shouting at Ramon.

Ramon pushed his heels on the floor and jumped to catch Damien who was hovering not too far.

The moment Damien saw Ramon jump, he flapped his wings and flew backward.

Ariel was happily giggling without the care in the world.

And Ramon prepared for the next jump, without minding his cousin's constant laughter right by his ear.

The crawler plant that was binding Damien's foot to the ground had now loosened.

So every time Ramon jumped to catch Damien, Damien would simply fly left or right and dodge him.

"Joy! Tie Damien up properly. Don't let him move!" Ariel gave out the order.

Thus, Joyce used her art of magic and tightly bound both of Damien's feet.

Damien smugly smiled as if that worked in his favor. And he spread his arms and wings as if he was surrendering to Ramon. And he asked while controlling his excitement, "Come at me. I give up."

Ramon took Damien's bait and smiled widely. And then he jumped so as to wrap his arms around Damien's body.

However, just when Ramon thought that he had Damien, the latter pulled that seemingly strong crawler plant from the ground with all his might and dodged to the side.

And with one swift motion, Damien swung his leg and grabbed one of that grass ropes.

"Ouch!" Ramon shrieked as he landed on the ground with a thud. He tried to move but he couldn't. He, along with Ariel on his back, was tied by that rope.

"Joy, the mission depends on you now," Ariel said in a muffled voice.

Damien quickly glanced towards Joyce and gave a smirk.

Joyce pointed her hand towards Damien to chant another spell. However, before she could chant the spell, Damien flew and landed in front of her.

And when she blinked, Damien finished tying her up as well and made her sleep on the ground.

Damien fisted on his hips and looked down at the three human caterpillars. And he declared his victory, "I win. You three lose." Stay updated with ???

And he also smugly played his part of the demon lord. "Now bow to this demon lord, you mere mortals– Ow!"

Something came flying and hit him hard on his back.

Ramon raised his head and laughed mockingly.

While Ariel shouted excitedly, "You silly demon lord! You forgot that we were four in total."

"Ow, ow, ow…" Damien shrieked as Niylah sat on his back and pinned both of his wings down to the ground.

Theodore was the happiest one in the training ground. He was enjoying Damien getting pinned down to the dirt.

Adeline was watching Theodore smiling ear to ear. And she whispered to her husband, "Do you have to make it so obvious that you are happy seeing a child get defeated?"

"I have to. This feels really great," Theodore whispered back without any hesitation.

Niylah didn't want to keep on sitting on Damien because he was moving like a fish that was out of the water. She pressed Damien's wings even firmly and asked in a polite and soft voice, "Do you accept your defeat?"

Damien wanted to shout "No" and push Niylah off his back.

However, before he could say anything, Ariel became the judge of the game, "Of course, he is defeated. All we needed to do was bring him down to the ground. So we win."

The corners of Niylah's lips twitched upward and she quickly jumped away from Damien. "Sorry if I hurt you too much," she even apologized innocently.

"It's fine," Damien got up and fluttered his wings to dust them off.

Joyce gave a little wave and the crawler ropes disappeared. The three human caterpillars were finally free.

"Nice save, Niylah," Ramon went to his twin's side and gave a pat on her shoulder.

In response, Niylah smiled at her brother.

And Joyce, on the other hand, snorted at Damien, "I could have easily gotten us out of that rope. But I went easy on you since you are our guest."

Damien didn't like that attitude of the witch. But he didn't say anything since 'he was the guest' there.

He simply gave a fake smile and turned around, only to bump with Ariel, who was secretly trying to climb on his back.

"Ary…" Damien's cheeks turned red for no reason at all.

And when he heard what Ariel said next, his whole body turned red.

"Damien," Ariel said as she spread out her arms, "Carry me and fly. I want to be a bird."

"Ariel! That's dangerous," Theodore shouted from behind.

However, before Theodore could even stand up, Ariel was already clinging to Damien like a little monkey.

"Ary, get down this instant," Theodore got up from his chair and ran towards his precious daughter.

Ariel tightly wrapped her arms around Damien's neck and her feet around his body. She looked at Damien's stunned face and she asked, "Damien, quick! Fly before my dada catches us."

"Y-Yes." Damien also put his arms around Ariel and held her tight.

And as if Damien was hypnotized by Ariel's sweet voice, he instantly shot high up in the air.

He forgot that his wings were supposed to be a secret from the other humans. He forgot everything.

All he could think about was that Ariel was clinging to him. All he could see was Ariel's awe-struck face, looking up towards the sky with a bright smile on her face.

Ariel's silver-black hair would cover her angelic face every once in a while due to the wind pressure. And she would shake her head to remove those hair strands away from her face.

*BADUMP*

Damien's heart was beating like never before when he saw Ariel's cute face so up close.

"Why is my heartbeat getting this loud?" he thought to himself. He didn't have an answer.

And without realizing it, Damien kept on flying higher and higher in the clear blue sky.

Down at the training ground, both Theodore and Adeline were getting restless. Not just because Damien was carrying Ariel and flying but also because those two kids were approaching the dome-shaped barrier which was invisible at the moment.

"Damien! Get down here now!" Theodore growled in rage.

However, his voice didn't stop the kids.

Adeline thought of spreading out her wings and chasing after Damien and Ariel. But it was already too late.

Theodore had already spread out his massive black wings. Of course, that meant he had unraveled his true Devil form that he had kept a secret from all the kids.

His crackling black and red horns were enough to stun Joyce and Niylah.

"Unc–" Ramon, on the other hand, fainted before he could say 'Uncle'.
