Lucifer's Descendant System-Chapter 381: 381 - Bel's Battle

"Now!" Bel yelled from the side, while Noah clenched his teeth from being burned. The dark night grew bright red, as Lighning spread through the air around Bel.

"What the—Ghu!" The blessed held in his food, coming back from his stomach, as the lighning-accelerated boy drove its head into his stomach. Bel flinched, as the lighning the man was using clashed with his, and he felt the backlash, while Noah cancelled his flames, forced to use his wings to stop the ever-growing momentum from his fall.

"Tsc," he clicked his tongue, as he saw some of the people below stare at him as descended, while most still looked at Bel and the man.

'Of course, yes for both,' Noah thought to himself, smiling, before landing his feet on the ground and staring at the terrified people after confirming Bel and the man falling from the building and crashing onto the ground in the distance.

"You are all now safe. These were the last invaders, everything else has been dealt with," Noah told the employees, who simply stood up and bowed, silently. There was no joy, or relief, or even a hint of comemorating the end of it all. 'Just what kind of...' he started thinking, before looking to the side, where the red lighning of Bel started to glow once again. 'Guess that guy is tough,' he thought, before shaking his head, trusting Bel to hold for a few minutes, if not defeat the man outright.

"Is anyone here injured?" he asked, a handful of people raising their hands. "Come forward, all injured. I'll deal with it.," he said, not expecting this simple action, paired with his wings, to be enough to create a great murmur and similarity between his identities.

"Ouch..." Bel stood up, his knees slightly bruised from the fall, and his head still turning. He raised his hand to his head in silence, and looked around to find the man they were fighting. Their fall had left a crater on the lawn, a large circle and a streak of fresh ground, dug up by the impact.

He looked back, to see a man sprawled onto the center of the crater. 'Good riddance,' the boy thought, seeing the man whose blood was dripping down the mouth.

But almost like an undead, his legs curled, and he raised himself from the ground, his knees firmly onto the ground, as his trunk slowly raised before his head. "Fuck, now you got me pissed," the man said, raising his head and wiping the blood from his mouth.

Bel frowned, as the man stood in front of him, his clothes tattered and charred by the fire and fall. Lighning started flowing out his fingers, and Bel responded in kin, his red lighning bursting around him like a tesla coil.

The man smiled with the corner of his lip, opening his hands as the lighning began flowing around and into the ground, creating the cage-like flow of purple lighning from his finger. "But you look very interesting, little boy. I wonder what you will look like..." he took a pause, the flow of his lighning increasing rapidly until it shot upwards, like real lightning, "DEAD!" he yelled, turning his hands towards Bel, the stream of lightning taking a erratic path towards him at the speed of light.

Yet, the boy simply smiled, leisurely waiting for the lighning to strike him.

"Uahahahahah!" the Blessed smiled, as a cloud of smoke arose after the impact, "Seems you couldn't even react to my lightning," he said, smiling proudly. "Guess my blessing is too much for a mere—"

"Are you done?" A voice asked from the cloud, as the smoke started to become clearer, interrupting him. "You know... from all that talking, you must be thinking you were the real shit, right?" Bel asked, smiling broadly.

"You—How the hell are you alive?!" the man asked, wide-eyed, as he used his lighting to create a cage around him, protecting him.

"Me?" Bel asked casually strolling forward closer to the man. "You want to know how I survived the pitiful lighning you threw my way?" he asked gigling.

"Don—Don't come near! I'll..." the man yelled and started a threat, but his words soon disappeared from his throughts.

"Eh... Are you sure you want to threaten me? The prince of flies?" Bel asked, smiling broadly. Another image overlaying that of his. The man trenbled, as a large eye stared deep into his soul, three pairs of pitch-black wings opening behind the boy.

"M—monster!" the man yelled, stumbling backwards.

"Monster... That's a pretty tame way to describe me." Red lightning crackled, crashing onto the ground and leaving burning scars on the lawn. "Demon would be a much more accurate word," he said, as he threw a bolt of lighning from his hand, that pierced through the cage instantly, distorting the purple lightning into a bow, and crashing against the man's thigh, cutting his leg off on the spot.

The man fell in pain, holding his now missing leg while moaning. "Hii!" he screetched as the ominius being loomed over him, slowly turning back to being the same innofensive-looking boy from before.

"Who sent you?" the boy asked, his wings nowhere to be seen, as he leaned over and held the lighning cage with both hands, pulling the lighning apart like it was a bendy metal instead of pure plasma, unhurt.

"Please, just kill me!" the man pleaded, Bel rolling his eyes, and stomping on the stomp he had for a leg, making the man howl in pain. "I'll tell you everything, please just—"

Another red bolt flashed from Bel's fingers, leaving a gaping hole on the man's other thigh, burning through flesh and bone alike, "Don't waste my time," Bel said, coldly.

"It was the Family. I work for them, I'm the chief bodyguard. They said the mean child had been kidnapped by his younger sisters. Please spare me," the man pleaded, amking BEl roll his eyes again.

"The only reason I won't kill you right now," he started, a sliver of hope appearing into the man's eyes. "is because there's someone else eager to finish the job," he said, turning around and walking away, leaving the man behind.

"Wait! What—" the man's pleas were interrupted by his own disgruntled yell of pain, as fire engulfed his body, burning him alive. The man's arms thrased, his legs completely disabled, as he tried pointlessly to stop the raging inferno, the rest of his mana being spent as uncontrollable lighning that hit the surroundings, destroying the lighting fixtures of the area.

"Such pointless struggle..." Bel murmured, shaking his head. Noah walked towards him, biting his lip, frustrated. "What is it?" the boy asked turning back to watch the fiery spectacle of the last invader's death.

"You know..." Noah began, as he too watched, "Seeing you fight like that... It reminded me of how weak I actually am," he said opening and closing his hand, almost as if testing his grip.

"... Well... I don't know what happened, but I suddenly recovered most of my—" Bel started speaking, and suddenly stopped, falling forward.

"Bel?! Hey, Bel!" Noah lunged forward, grabbing him before the boy fell on the ground. He checked the boy, realizing he was still alive, just sleeping. "Guess using all that power was far too much for you..." he muttered, as he finally had time to see the messages writen in fire in his view.

[The blessing Ice Creation has been incorporated into the skill Frozen Hell]

[This Blessing has committed unsurmountable sins, Do you want to fully absorb their blessing?]

Noah's eyes widened, as he stared at all the skills he gained and how stronger he would become if he had full control of them.

'But first,' he thought. 'I should get this guy to bed,' he told himself, taking a deep breath, as he put Bel over his shoulder and prepared for the backlash of having his identities leaked for certain tomorrow.

"I wonder if everyone is still asleep," he muttered, walking towards the entrance of the house, giving a fleeting glance at the dented car he would have to give back to Marcel shortly thereafter. And almost as if guessing his strange thought, as soon as he stepped foot into the house, a familiar and sleepy voice called out to him in his thoughts.

'Umm... Noah, did something happen?' Lilith's voice echoed in his mind.

'Now that everything is done and dealt with you finally wake up?' he asked, in disbelief.

'What do you mean everything done and dealt with?' she asked, Noah almost able to see her furrowing her non-existant brows. 'I only asked because this maid girl here looks absolutely terrified,' she said, making Noah smile.

'Damn right she is... I just popped in there to tell her to not leave no matter what,' almost laughing, as he walked towards Bel's room.

'You went in h—' she asked, but was interrupted by Noah.

'Also, Bel kinda passed out, just so you know,' he said making the snake yell.

"WHAT!?" which he heard incredibly softly, because he heard it not with the regular telepathy, but with his ears, despite the room she was in being soundproofed.
