Chapter 123: The First Murderer
"So a competition for Ares, I like that" said Hephaestus grinning from ear to ear, the he turned to the other stranger in the room "and who are you?"
"Someone you don't want to offend, now leave you have served your purpose" said Zeus getting back on his feet
"But..."
"Leave, while I am still asking nicely" Zeus said once again to Hephaestus before he could even say anything.
Hephaestus had no other choice but to listen to his father and left but not without taking one last look at Lucifer.
"Your son looks nothing like you, no offense" said Lucifer as he sat down on the throne of Lucifer.
"None taken but ..." Zeus cut himself off before he could complete his statement as he remembers what Lucifer could do.
He let that go and looked at the new lady that caused him several years of severe headache and wondered how she is related to Metis, cause he swore she has an uncanny resemblance to Metis except for the hair. Stay connected via My Virtual Library Empire
"Who are you?" He asked her.
"Like I said earlier, I am Athena, the goddess of War and Wisdom, also your daughter born of Metis" she said once again stunning Zeus.
Zeus looked at her and observed her greatly while thinking of the prophecy about a child of Metis killing him and claiming his throne.
"Don't worry, she is not the one prophesized to kill you, so you can rest assured that you ended everything the moment you decided to kill Metis" said Lucifer to Zeus as if knowing what he was actually thinking in that moment.
Zeus sighed in relief but sadness flashed in his eyes as he looked at Athena and remembered what he did to her mother.
"I'm sorry, I did ..."
"I don't need your sorry, what's done is already done and you can't change a thing about it, neither will your sorry" said Athena to Zeus before turning around to leave his Palace.
"Where are you going from here?" Zeus asked her.
"My palace" said Athena as if it was already obvious causing both Zeus and Lucifer to raise a brow in confusion, Athena seeing this confusion, decided to elaborate further to make them understand "I going to take back my mother's palace as my own, if you don't mind?"
"Oh, sure, you can go ahead" said Zeus finally understanding what she met earlier.
Athena nodded and left the duo as she made her way to her mother's palace which now belongs to her.
"She is going to be a very fierce goddess and one of your best allies, you don't want your obsession over your position get the best of you" said Lucifer as he disappeared from the palace.
Zeus just stood there and made sense of Lucifer's word.
Earth
"So you have been cursed to live the earth for eternity as a punishment for killing your brother"
"Yes, I did just as you told me but you never said anything about curses, you only told me that I would grab the attention of God"
"And you did just that, he finally called you by your name and cursed you personally, I say that is an achievement on his own"
"You bitch"
"Now I don't mind being called that but I don't like it coming out of your mouth, I detest it. Now moving on to why I am here"
A man and a woman were having a heated discussion.
The woman is naturally Lilith, the Queen of Hell and the man is Cain, son of Adam and Eve.
After Adam and Eve left Eden into the world, they made a home for themselves and during the years that went by, they had two sons and a daughter, a twin of Cain.
Cain has always been jealous of his younger brother Abel since from a young age.
He is always the best at what he does even to the point of catching the eyes of God who blessed him even more.
It was as if he, Cain no longer exist anymore and was nothing more than the shadow of his brother, Abel.
So when this strange woman came to him with an interesting offer he could not say no to, he quickly accepted her proposal to get rid of his little brother, Abel and have talk with the Almighty God.
But he never knew what he wanted was never going to happen as everything was all a lie from the woman and instead of being blessed and becoming the center of attention like the woman said, he became someone who killed his own brother, an outcast shunned by both his parent and only his sister stood by his side.
"And what could that possibly be, huh? What more could you possibly want from me, do you perhaps want my life or do you intend for me to kill the rest of my family to appease you?" Said Cain, angered from being deceived by the woman in front of him.
"Please child, what can I gain from you killing all your family members when I can have them procreate more for me to keep me entertained for a long time" said Lilith while bringing out a Vial out of thin air and gave it to Cain "I actually came here to give this to you, even though God gave you eternal life, you could still be killed, so if you don't want to die and want more power than you could even imagine, then you can drink from that vial and that's only after you have started a family of your own"
She said to Cain who took the vial from her hand and looked at it very closely "what does it do?" He asked.
"I don't know either but I believe it will be beneficial to you"
"And how do I know that this is not one if your tricks"
"Because I have never tricked you before, everything happened just as you wanted, so you should be thanking me you ungrateful bastard" said Lilith.
Cain scoffed and put the vial away "who are you really and don't tell me that you are the wife of the son of God, blah, blah, blah" said Cain.
"I am truly the wife of the son of God, the first wife actually and if you don't believe, then don't take that vial and you can come meet me in the afterlife, The World First Murderer" said Lilith sweet coating the last part before disappearing.
Cain shuddered slightly as he thought of the excitement in the eyes of the woman when she called him the world first murderer as if she was planning on doing something dangerous to him.
"That skin woman, I hope to never see her again" said Cain as he walked away from there to go back to his wife-sister, Awan.
Elsewhere on Earth
"I see you have had your fun and now here to ruin mine" said Lilith to Lucifer who was sitting at a top of a very tall and large mountain overlooking the earth.
"What do you mean I'm here GI ruin your fun? I an just here to spend some time with my first and lovable wife, that's all" said Lucifer smirking at her.
Lilith rolled her eyes and scoffed when he said that "if you think I am one of those your wives who would fall for this stupid trick of yours, then you are clearly mistaken, but nice try" said Lilith.
Lucifer laughed out loud and shook his head "stop playing hard to get, and no matter what you do, you are now mine, I don't need to use sweet words to win you over" said Lucifer as he went back to overlook the earth like a certain God "but I have to say, you are doing a splendid job, corrupting the humans to sin, that is truly impressive given you are just new to all these, keep it up and I might award you with a five star as the best deceiver of men"
*I don't need your praises, I am just having fun with the descendants of Adam and my replacement, it is great leading them astray from God, every single time" said Lilith.
"Well, that's still impressive but for now, can you stop doing what you are doing, I know you gave us the first tenant in Hell which I'm sure Satanael is very happy for as someone is going to keep him company but this is not the right time to be doing all of these, you know, in a few years from now, watch me and see how the Devil works" said Lucifer.
Lilith frowned when she heard that and wanted to say a piece of her mind when suddenly, out of nowhere, Lucifer kissed her catching her by surprise and she became lost in it.
After a few minutes, Lucifer separated his lips from hers and her regaining her senses, her face wrinkled into a frown as she punched Lucifer really hard sending him flying.
"How Dare You Kiss Me Without My Consent?"
"You are my wife, I don't need to do that"
