Chapter 2 - The Devil's Palace

Alex takes a good survey of the strange man wearing a metal head band around his eyes with the symbol of a cross and a optimistic personality.

"Okay...so who are you?"

The man tips his head to the left and faces Alex, appearing as one who looked baffled or bewildered.

Alex now enraged at the mute response he received cast a menacing look on the stranger and clenched his fist tightly-in an attempt to restrain his anger.

The stranger smiles as he gazed upon the now angered Alex.

"Kid calm down all right.....I just wanted to observe you for a while".

Alex now relaxed but curious asked why the stranger observed him.

The stranger responds casually"Well I just wanted to now if you really are Alex router".

Alex shocked"How do you know my full name" .

The stranger responds"Well my boss told me".

Alex took a glance at him again"who is your boss?".

The stranger smiles"Well...that's why I came to get you... FOLLOW ME"

They both walk to a huge gate,Alex wondered who would need such a gate.The stranger touches the door and says"OPEN".

Immediately the gate slowly opens.

The amount of energy that gushed out was absolutely terrifying and what was revealed inside was a man on a throne made of bones with one hand on his face and the other on the arm of his throne.

"You guys are finally here".

Alex took a good look at the slightly muscular man with a tall-slender statue,as well as a black hair and a bloody-red eyes.

Alex stood their baffled as he observed the two figures present before him.The man on the throne looked down on Alex with a cold expression on his face,. "Do you know who I am?".

Alex stands unshaken as his mind slowly drifts away from the question but instead intrusive to know what will be his final judgement in this fiery depth of pain and misery.

The man on the throne snaps his finger in an attempt to revive Alex from his drifting mind filled with numerous ways this could turn out bad for him.

Alex blinks his eyes and cleans it with his hand"oh... your name right....well am not sure".

The man looks at Alex, still with a cold expression present on his face.

"I...AM...LUCIFER-THE GREAT DEVIL".

Alex stumbles back appalled by what he heard before regaining his self.

"DID YOU JUST SAY DEVIL!".

The man stares at Alex with a terrifying smile finally appearing on his face.

Alex was terrified but he suppressed it and regained his composure.

"Well... that's alright but who is the guy with the cross symbol",as he pointed to the optimistic stranger.

Lucifer looks and says"oh...he is my P.A".

Alex looked relieved at the taught that he didn't end up fighting him earlier or he would have been dead.

Lucifer looked at Alex as Doo he was expecting something else"ls that all... you are really not surprised on how you got here".

Alex felt confused and lost at the statement "can... you explain in detail".

Lucifer with a now energetic vibe.

"Well I will be honest with you....there is no heaven or hell... you see when the gods left...I saw no meaning in your universe again due to fact that it was destroyed-messed up and so freaking boring no one to manipulate but later on the gods-ruled by their father the almighty God of creation called the Great cosmos inquired if I can come to his new universe".

Alex inpatiently cuts him off before he could continue"Sorry but did you say he asked you-the king of evil! ....to enter his so called perfect and pure universe".

Alex now completely lose looks at him"WHY!".

Lucifer looks at him annoyed"Well let me finish".

His fingers intertwine which each other as Doo he was an evil Mastermind,then his expression and voice turned dark.

"Alex...the reason he invited me was so the other creatures would be sent to hell and the heavens will be reserved for the E-humans who are the gods best creations and of course them...only very few individuals are actually taken from their realms and it doesn't matter if they are good sometimes... all that mattered is there interest towards that creature usually because of their powers".

Alex still puzzled"wait...I thought there were very little amount of creatures in the katoverse".

Malakai (the devil's P.A) cuts in,

"Well...no and the reason is because... the katoverse was not just created within 2 or 4 years ago".

Alex now intrigued at hearing this, "Hold up..then when was it created".

Lucifer continued"well at least 300 thousand cursed blood years ago... which is approximately 300millions years after the creation of your universe and if you think about it the Earth on its own is about 4.54 billion years or so let alone the entire universe....so the katoverse project began along time ago".

He continued,"so the realms are really just to separate the insects and failure from the E-humans".

Alex Immediately felt dumbfounded and dizzy as he realized a very horrible fact.In a distress and stammering tone,"If....if...there is no heaven or hell what exactly happens to those souls in my world".

Lucifer looks at him pitifully,"THEY PERISH..and become part of the nothingness".

Alex staggers back in disbelief and trys to look around as he sees the world spinning,"WAIT... WAIT....WAITTTT..there is no way that's true-after all i am here".

Lucifer looks at him but with a disgust and irritated expression,"OF COURSE YOU FOOL!.... sometimes I pick some souls that are about to perish and bring them here to suffer...I prefer to see them in agony rather than letting them perish so easily...If am correct you saw your stupid soul in a dark void of nothingness before you came here".

Alex fell on the ground in absolute horror and pain...as he knew this was true".

Lucifer scofffed, " of course you did..well that void place is where the sould perish".

Alex filled with anger"NO!... wait.. this means his gone..I couldn't protect them and I couldn't safe myself".

He stands up with endless rage as he looked at the king of evil with a menacing gaze.

Lucifer on his own side returns the gaze with sinister grin,"COME.... let me end your soul in a glorious way".

Alex on the verge of taking a giant leap towards the devil stops and within an instant his expression turns hollow and empty.

Lucifer stands tall and gazes upon Alex,

"look a century a go of the demon Lord of suffering died... you suffered the most in your world which is why I chose you but you should learn to rule your emotions".

"So Alex do accept the title of demon deputy of suffering and the chance to be reborn".

Alex in epiphany stands up "yes ....I accept,a second chance is all I need...I finally understand..my emotion and weakness have made it clear to me that I am unable to make sacrifices for my goals but that's all about to change".

Lucifer stands "okay stretch your hands and touch mine".

Immediately Alex starts to disappear in a burning luminant fire,his entire body is burnt up leaving only ashes.

He finds his self on what felt like the ground, struggling to open his eyes,then he hears two male voices.

Voice 1,"Is he a hybrid"

Voice 2," Just put him in the wagon"
