Chapter 1013   - THE DEAL BETWEEN SEREFINA AND THE DEVILS

And when the flames almost went out, two consecutive popping sounds were heard near them. Someone teleported themselves in to this chaos and appeared right beside the Donovan brothers.

It was Lidya and the dwarf.

"We need to leave this place now," Lidya said and without waiting for their answer, she and Nutdrouk grabbed the three Donovan's hands along with Lilac's.

In a blink of an eye, they had disappeared from the battlefield, leaving the witch to face the wrath of the Devils alone.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY ALL OF THIS!?" Lucifer roared in anger and the Wrath behind him charged forward to give the witch a lesson.

He used Lilac's power and made tendrils and roots emerge from the barren ground in the shape of spears which were aimed right at the witch.

However, before one of those could hurt her, the spears disintegrated themselves before turning into dust.

Serefina glared at Wrath. "Do you think you can use this power against me?" she smirked triumphantly, but the sense of victory didn't reflect in her eyes at all. She was being cautious about what the devils would do next...

The Wrath was about to rush toward Serefina again when Mammon held him back.

And when the flames were completely extinguished, only leaving some innocent flickers on the ground, they finally noticed the aftermath of what Serefina had done.

Carcasses were lying, scattered on the barren ground along with the bones which weren't yet burned from the crazy fire from earlier and also the ashes of the creatures from both parties that were engaged in a battle until then.

"How could she wield such power?" Asmodeus was stunned when she looked around her. Their minions were gone, died and turned into ashes, along with the lycans and the dragon beasts… the crazy witch killed them all! "It is impossible…"

The devils were not afraid of Serefina, since she couldn't really kill them, but what she had done had ruined their plans and now the Donovans managed to escape. No one saw Lidya and Nutdrouk earlier, since their focus was elsewhere entirely, so they thought that the Donovans used their firebirds to teleport themselves.

"That b*tch used the guardian angels' blood to strengthen her own power!" Leviathan, one of the devils, cursed under his breath when he realized this.

Yes, Serefina didn't only give them the power of the guardian angels, but she used it to strengthen her own power too.

They should have known that the witch wouldn't give them more benefits than what she could get from them.

This was indeed a scheme within scheme that was contorting between the witch and the devils.

"With your deviousness, you should be the eighth devil," Belphegor said. He was the only one, who didn't seem much surprised at the sudden turn of events, neither did he throw the witch a dagger look, like what the others did.

"No, thanks for your offer, but I don't think I can fill up that role effectively." Serefina shook her head. "Why are you getting angry? Don't tell me that this is the first time you see someone who broke a deal…"

The bodies of Raine and Hope lowered down, until the two guardian angel's bodies laid on the ground when Lucifer walked closer to Serefina.

Now, only five steps of distance was between them.

"Or, maybe you broke too many deals that you forgot about the possibility that someone will do the same thing to you?" Serefina asked mockingly. "Karma is real, b*tch."

The five devils behind him were cursing and hissing dangerously when they heard this, but Belphegor didn't even appear interested in the slightest, so did Lucifer.

"So, you come here to declare that you had turned your back against us? And then run with your tail between your legs to your wolf? How pathetic you are…" Lucifer's golden eyes didn't show any emotion when he said that, the only thing in his mind was; how to get back at this witch. She should know to not play with the devils. "Didn't you even consider that; if I can't get all the three guardian angels then I won't think twice before killing the two who are with me. The war will not be won by them without the three guardian angels on their side."

Serefina chuckled when she heard that. "First of all, I don't have a tail and secondly; I didn't really break the deal between us either. I will not stoop to your level to do such a thing."

In other words, Serefina wanted to say that the devils didn't have dignity for breaking so many deals and with the way she said it, it almost sounded as if she was cussing them.

"I didn't promise you that I will not kill your minions and ruin your plan, I just promised you that I will give the last guardian angel to you." Serefina flicked her fingers. "Here you are."

Out of thin air, Lilac's body appeared. Flying in the air as if she didn't have any weight, like a cotton ball that floated in the air.

"This is what you wanted." Serefina gave Lucifer her lopsided smile. She could see the change of the expressions on the devils' faces, but then as if there was something surprised them, they jolted and looked at each other in tacit understanding.

"The Hydra…" Asmodeus said.

"Someone is trying to kill the Hydra…" Leviathan looked very upset.

Lucifer could feel that too. The monster that supposed to wreck havoc in human world was fighting something and it had already lost two of its heads…

"Leave." Lucifer gritted his teeth. "I will deal with this witch."

But the six devils were still there. They wanted to deal with Serefina too.

"Leave now!" Lucifer repeated his order and this time the five devils disappeared from Serefina's sight, leaving only Belphegor, who was staring at the unconscious Raine with interest. "Don't you hear me?" Lucifer turned around to face the sloth.

"You can deal with her, I will just take this guardian angel with me," Belphegor said casually, as he crouched down and was about to pick Raine up from the ground when Lucifer shot him with fire that burned his hand.

"Leave now before I send you back to Tartarus."
