Chapter 4 : Sixth level of hell

LOCATION : THE SIXTH LEVEL OF HELL

TIME : IRRELEVANT

DATE : IRRELEVANT

Hell is an entire universe comparable in size to Heaven.

It is filled with fire and brimstone and coursing with everything evil, wrong and negative in all of existence.

Created to keep Lucifer and his minions captive until the appointed time when they would be brought before the throne of grace and judged.

Humans that end up resident there are unfortunate souls that succumbed to the devil's whims and got dragged in with him thus hell was never created for humans and it is only due to heeding the words of demons do human souls end up there suffering eternal torment.

Hell is divided into six levels with the first to the fourth level housing low level demons up to the rank of low arch demons.

The fifth level is home to the Named while the sixth is the dwelling place of the demon princes as well as the dark god Lucifer.

Intensity of flames in hell increase as one goes deeper down the levels which is why not just any low level demon can enter the fifth and sixth level.

************************

A figure can be seen sitting atop a throne made of bones with green flames all around the throne with two male souls who were completely naked with chains around their neck and the chains ran all the way to the figure's hand as they seemed to serve as dogs for the figure.

Monstrosities are seen around the figure serving and waiting for a command.

The figure seems to be female with long dark hair and feline eyes with slit irises with a body that was almost naked with only her loins and breasts covered by a thick black clothe, three horns protrude from her head.

A portal opens in front of the throne with a figure coming out of it.

The figure turns out to be Belphegor but he seems to be quite wounded with the right side of his body burned really badly and blood coming out from his head.

"My oh my, what happened to you??"

The figure atop the throne asks in a mocking tone with a smirk on her face.

"Don't start, Mammon, I'm not in the mood for your taunts"

Belphegor replies in a pained voice as he brought up a seat from the floor and sat on it with a monster coming up to him and serving a chalice filled with what seemed to be blood.

"Oh my, but I'm not taunting you at all, I honestly would like to know what happened.

Were you able to find out if the rumors about a new team of scripture holders amongst the church were true."

Mammon says as she stands from her throne of bones and begins to walk down the stairs to Belphegor.

"Yes, they are true and this new team seem to be better trained and much more powerful than the previous one we faced."

Belphegor replies in a pained voice as he began to heal himself.

"Hmm, are you trying to tell me that those pathetic humans are the ones that gave you such an injury??"

Mammon asks as she had finished her descent down the stairs.

"She was no ordinary human, she carried a power akin to the Most high."

Belphegor replied, recounting the events that took place between him and Eliza.

"Hmm, it would seem the humans have gotten a secret weapon that can hurt even a demon prince though I'm not as surprised as I'm supposed to be."

Mammon says as she comes to stand in front of Belphegor with her human dogs following behind with their chains still attached to her hands.

"What do you mean by that??... Are you saying I'm weak?"

Belphegor asks with an annoyance on his voice which caused the other demons in the vicinity to clear away in fear.

"Maybe, but more like you let your guard down as I'm sure you are good at doing."

Mammon says as she straddles Belphegor and let go of the chains to place her hands on Belphegor's head with the souls bursting into green flames as she let go of the chain.

"I could make you regret saying that I'm weak."

Belphegor says in a low tone as he grabbed Mammon's neck.

"You don't have to, I know my place amongst the leadership of this shit hole and so I'm OK with playing accordingly as long as I get what I want."

Mammon says as she then proceeds to kiss Belphegor with the two leaders engaging in a public show of lust as they devoured each other without a care in the world.

"Instead of wasting time fucking each other, wouldn't it be best to inform the rest about the new team you encountered."

A voice is heard from the shadows with Belphegor and Mammon putting a stop to what they were doing.

"What are you doing here, Six??"

Mammon asks standing up to face the beast that had entered their midst.

"Well I was passing by and I overheard your discussion with Belly over there, so I thought I'd share my opinions regarding the matter."

The creature referred to as Six replied as he came out from the shadows to reveal a humanoid figure with a somewhat beast like appearance and a fur coat to cover himself with.

"And what exactly are your opinions??"

Belphegor asks gruffly.

"You lot have been underestimating the human race since time Immemorial and every time they end up proving you wrong.

I think it's time you take this seriously, cease the attack on heaven and concentrate your forces on destroying humanity completely else they be your downfall."

Six replied calmly.
