She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 592: Celestial Gene

Theodore glared up at Damien and Ariel.

They were closing in towards the barrier by the second. The barrier stopped the celestials from coming in. However, it didn't stop Ariel from going out.

And Theodore was not going to let that happen, no matter what.

Theodore was releasing such an intense aura that even Adeline was worried thinking about what he was going to do next.

"Theo…" Adeline wanted to ask her husband to take a chill pill. She wanted to be the one to stop Damien from flying any further.

However, Theodore teleported from the ground before Adeline could even say anything.

Theodore reappeared high up in the air, a little above Damien and Ariel.

And he spread out his black feathered wings. The wingspan was so wide that the shadow directly fell down on the kids, blocking the sky as well as the sunlight. Your next read awaits at M V L

"Damien! Didn't you hear me? Stop flying any higher!" Theodore's enraged growl rumbled in the sky as if they were thunder.

Ariel was confused when she heard that familiar yet at the same time unfamiliar voice from above them.

Damien was scared because of the red aura that he was engulfed in. He had never seen that much amount of aura of anger ever in his life before.

Both Ariel and Damien looked up towards the source of the shadow, as well as the voice, almost simultaneously.

As Theodore was facing down, blocking the sun, all those poor kids could see was the silhouette of the Devilish figure.

And both of them got the scare of their lives.

"Aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…"

Ariel was scared of the terrifying dark figure itself while Damien was more afraid of the aura that that figure was emanating.

Theodore held out his hand to grab Ariel from Damien.

However, all that the kids could see were the long and sharp claws. They were even more scared thinking that that thing was going to do something bad to them.

And in that fear and confusion, Ariel completely let go of her hold on Damien.

Damien didn't realize that his hold on Ariel had loosened.

Thus, when Ariel let go of him, she easily slipped out of his arms and started falling down from that great height.

"Damien!" Ariel screamed and tried to grab onto her friend but he was already out of her reach.

"Arieeeeeel!" Damien turned around and was ready to dive down to catch Ariel. However, he felt that dark figure grabbing his clothes and stopping him from doing so.

"What are you doing?" Damien struggled to get out of that figure's grip but he couldn't.

And he heard Theodore's anger-laced heavy growl, "You've done enough, Damien. Now leave her to me."

"Y-Yes, Devil Prince," Damien stuttered in terror after seeing Theodore up close and recognizing who he was.

Theodore looked down at his daughter who was still free-falling.

He was mentally calculating the place he needed to teleport to so that he could catch his daughter faster.

However, Ariel had different plans. Or let's say, her celestial genes had different plans for her.

Her body perceived the danger that Ariel was in and acted accordingly.

Ariel felt a shrilling pain in her shoulder blades.

At first, she mistook that pain for that terrifying bird's claws digging onto her and she screamed in fear.

"Ariel!" Theodore got distracted from his trajectory calculation when he heard the painful screams of his daughter.

And instead of teleporting, Theodore folded his wings together and swooped down towards his daughter. "Ariel, I'm coming for you. Don't panic," he directed Ariel.

This time around, Ariel recognized her father's voice. And she was a little relieved thinking her father was doing some magic to prevent her from hitting the ground.

She still didn't suspect that her father was flying behind her. She couldn't see that that terrifying dark figure who she had seen earlier was in fact her dada.

Ariel wasn't completely relieved though. She could feel something trying to poke out of her back. She felt like reaching her back and scratching those areas mercilessly. But fearing that she would tumble around in the air, she didn't dare.

Theodore was very close to catching Ariel.

However, he slowed down when he suddenly saw the cloth on his daughter's shoulder blades tearing up.

Theodore widened his eyes and waited for something to happen. But he was still closely flying down after Ariel, in case what he thought didn't happen.

The very next moment, a proud and wide smile appeared on Theodore's face.

"Holy mother… they look so beautiful," Theodore couldn't help but admire what he was seeing.

A pair of pure white wings had manifested out of Ariel's back. The feathers looked so soft and fluffy that it looked as if God had hand-picked each of the feathers himself for Ariel's wings.

Ariel suddenly felt something heavy behind her back.

The speed with which she was falling down also slowed down to a great extent.

From the corner of her eyes, Ariel saw something white on both of her sides. She turned her head behind to see what it was.

However, rather than noticing the white and beautiful wings, her gaze fell on that same dark figure a little behind her.

"Aahhhhh…" Ariel screamed again and tried to get away from that deadly shadow.

But in that process of 'running away', she lost her balance in the air and began to roll around.

Theodore had hoped that Ariel would at least give a flap or two to her wings.

However, it was too late to wish that since Ariel was dangerously close to hitting the ground with her back.

So he flapped his wings and reached out his hands for his baby.

And while reaching for her, he spoke in his loving voice, "Ariel, it's me, your dada. You don't have to be scared."

"Dada?" Ariel was utterly confused why her father was looking like a monster.

However, she didn't care for now.

She somehow regained her balance with the help of her wings. And she gave a flap to her wings while spreading her arms so that she could reach her father.

"Dada!" Ariel flung her arms around her father's neck and tightly closed her eyes.

Theodore hovered a few meters above the ground while hugging and caressing his daughter.

Adeline was covering her mouth with both of her palms. And under those palms lay a proud smile.

"She grew her wings…" Adeline thought to herself.
