An Unexpected Development

-----

"At the very least… I can count on you, right? You won't… go away from me, right?" asked Lucifer, as he held the System Master's hand tightly…

His aquamarine eyes shone brightly with sorrow. This was… Lucifer's most honest emotions.

There was no trickster-like smile.

No teasing…

There was…

Just… an endless sorrow on his eyes.

The prideful king of hell… was showing what he truly was to the System Master.

He held his hand tightly, showing his emotional weakness.

Despite how powerful he could be… all this power was confined inside his own Dimension.

Outside, he only depended in Avatars, which were not even as strong as his true body, that was trapped and jailed in the Dimension of Hell, exclusively made to put him there forever.

"What… why are you asking this? Of course… I won't leave your side…." Said the System Master. As he blushed a bit and averted his gaze from Lucifer.
