A Great Devil

Nina stared at Abel, "Go hide in the shade. I assume those guards were yours?"

Abel nodded, "The black shadows protecting Mother. I asked them to assemble close by in case the cubus tried to escape. I told them to never face the cubus head-on." He remembered the dead soldier.

Arad approached, "Nina, do you know about this?" He pointed at Abel. "I do. Alcott." She pointed at Alcott who approached from the back. "Ginger, Merlin, the guild headmaster, and I. Anyone who could attack Abel if they saw him. We all knew about him,"

Abel scratched his head. "Mother is a devil. As you can see, we both were born as devils. Sister and I."

"Tiefling? Do you mean tiefling?" Arad looked at Abel, he resembled Jack's sister, but he had fair skin.

"No, we're pure devils. Mother's blood was stronger than Father's. Can't expect less when she hails from the great Aliceborn bloodline." Abel puffed his chest as his wings and horns got absorbed into his body. "Ah, I'm recovering."
