I'm The Devil

Chapter 14: Meeting of the Nymphs

Island of Crete

It has been a week since the Nymphs had two guests, Lucifer and Aphrodite who created a barrier to shield them from the watchful eyes of the Godking and his underlings.

Adamantheia has told the Nymphs to not in any way anger Lucifer and Aphrodite and must do whatever they were told. Ever since she first saw Lucifer, Adamantheia has had this feeling that he is not to be taken lightly of and must always be on guard around him.

But with that wariness came a lot of benefits as they are now independent but Lucifer still gave her an advice to not remain hidden and show her face to the outside world from time to time so as to gather allies and not depend on him entirely which helped her as she has made a friend with Rhea, the wife of the Godking, which most of the Nymps didn't take quite well.

"What are you going to do when she oust us to Chronos? What will happen then?"

A very attractive Nymph who has an usual resemblance to the Nymph that blocked Lucifer and Aphrodite when they came close to the mountain.

"Cynosura, that will not be a problem as Rhea can be trusted, she will never betray us, also Lucifer vouched for her, so there is no problem there" Adamantheia said to her younger sister Cynosura who is untrusting towards Rhea as she didn't even trust any Titans.

Cynosura scoffed as Adamantheia made mention of Lucifer, how can her sister be so foolish enough to trust the words of a man she didn't know well enough "you trust that guy, that guy that calls himself the Devil. Just at the mere mention of his name, you would know that he is nothing good and you are going to take his words. We don't even know if this is a ploy for him to take our Island, our heritage from us, and you are just playing right into his hands, come on sister, you are better than this, don't let yourself be fooled by them"

Cynosura tried to speak some sense into Adamantheia's head and get her to see that she was being fooled by the people she trusted.

Adamantheia just sighed at the headache coming her way as she did not have anything to say to her sister, Cynosura who is adamant on her opinion against Lucifer and Rhea.

"If you don't trust him, what about me"

The Nymphs turned to see Aphrodite walking into their meeting room with a smile on her face but only a full would think that the smile on her is friendly smile.

Aphrodite came not long ago to give Adamantheia something from Lucifer when she overhead what Cynosura said.

Aphrodite didn't give a damn about what she said about Rhea but what she said about Lucifer, her man.

She knew Lucifer is a man of his words and when he says he is going to do something, he meant it, and now someone is slandering his name, so what if he is the Devil, does she even know what the word Devil mean?

"I know where you are coming from, I know you hate the Titans because they were the ones who killed Ouranos who could also be considered our father as we were born from him, but that doesn't give you the right to talk about Lucifer like that, he is someone who takes his words seriously and I will not take it likely with you just because we could be considered siblings, if you say anything bad about Lucifer one more time, I will be coming for you"

Aphrodite warned Cynosura who was a little shaken by her threats.

Aphrodite seek the desired effect on Cynosura smiled before she turned to Adamantheia "Lucifer said to give this to you, I don't know what it is nor do I care, but he said it will be beneficial to you" Aphrodite said as she handed Adamantheia a box which contains what Lucifer prepared for her.

Adamantheia took the box from Aphrodite's hands and kept it away for now "thank you for delivering it yourself and also thank Lucifer for the gift, we appreciate his generosity and please don't be offended by what Cynosura said, she was just being protective of our kind, that's all"

Adamantheia pleaded in the place of Cynosura who was looking at Aphrodite with a little trace of anger in her eyes.

After Adamantheia received the item, Aphrodite turned around and walked away only to stop at the door "you know, Cynosura, if Lucifer wanted to take the Island for himself, he wouldn't even waste his time negotiating with you and coming to a deal, he could have just taken over with just a snap of his fingers, that's Lucifer for you and that's what he should have done"

Aphrodite said to Cynosura before she walked out of the room leaving the bewildered Nymphs.

Adamantheia sighed after Aphrodite left, she was having a headache currently as her sister do not want to listen to reason and now she has offended Aphrodite and that's not going to fair well for Cynosura, in fact all of them.

"Cynosura, see what you've done? I told you to let the matter go and let's focus on other things but you refused and now Aphrodite heard what you said, do you know what she would have done to you if not for the promise Lucifer made not to harm any of us as long as they stay here? Why don't you just listen for once, I can't let you continue like this, so as a punishment, you will have to serve Aphrodite and make her forgive you because if you think that all is forgiven the moment she walked out of that door, then you are mistaken, she is just waiting for the time to strike when you least except, so this isn't a punishment instead it's a way for you to redeem yourself. I hope you've leanrt your lesson and you now know when I do something, I do so for a reason, you may leave now"

Cynosura had her head down as she was too ashamed to even face her sister after what she did.

Adamantheia left the meeting room with what Aphrodite brought for her from Lucifer.

Elsewhere

In a golden castle, a man sat on a throne radiating a blinding light like that of a sun, he is Ra, the Godking of the Kemet Realm.

He is bothered by the recent death of two of their kind, a Primordial god and he knew it was not going to end with just them as he too has received a vision from one of his gods that he is going to be overthrown by a new god, so that made him know that their era as Godkings is coming to an end and a new era is about come upon them.

"Bast, go to the different realms and pass a message to the Godlings that it is high time we gather together and have a meeting, something big is about to happen"

Ra called Bast, his eye and also his messenger and daughter.

"Yes, father"

Bast said as she vanished from his sight.

Ra looked at the empty space and sighed "things will get very chaotic soon, I must make sure I secure my position, no one can take my position as the Godking, no one"
