My Man Is A Villain, So Am I!

"Three!!!!!!" the countdown began, ax on the throat of duke Jellal lying on the sofa with the killing intent filled all over the room.

Will Marinette come out? Despite she already fainted on the upper floor?

"I'm not kidding!!! Get out now!!!!!" the ax reached the duke's throat, little blood came out of it. Blood dripped on the floor as the second passed.

Marinette couldn't hear any of his threats, her temperature started to rise, the smoke enveloped Marinette's body swallowing her as her belly grew bigger.

"Two...more minutes, I'll go out soon. You go first, Irene." Herod was pale putting on his bar behind the door of his room, his lip's redness was fader and fader and the black circle around his eyes was noticeable like a panda.

'I must kill Jessica...' his body became weak after using all the magic energy to help all of the soldiers falling from the sky and taking the side effect to himself.

"I'll be waiting for you downstairs, do you remember our plan?"

"Yeah, after your plan is done. I'll do mine. By the way, have duke Jellal arrived yet?"

"None of the people here saw him, but the royal family will be here soon."

"Alright, let's go." Herod after putting on the red lipstick came out of the door walking with the white dress with the cross mark necklace on his neck.

"What're you going to do with that hairpin?" Irene frowned her eyebrow glancing at the black hairpin Herod put in his bun.

"To kill my prey."

"Kill...?"

"I'm not nice as you, Irene. Sometimes, the only choice is to kill your enemy."

It was silent for a brief second, Irene clenched her fist staring into Herod's eyes with the coldness that appeared on her face.

"I'm not nice, I killed people the same as you."

"Don't mistake it, Irene. I killed good people, not like you who only killed the bad guys. I'll play both roles, the bad guy and the good guy as long as I get what I want."

"You killed...innocent people??" there was no trace of lies in Herod's eyes leaving Irene to be furious, but she could only hold her anger in her heart.

"I hate nice people the most, they tend to like helping people without... never mind. Let's go." Herod held onto the rail of the stair walking down the white stair to the prayer room where the ceremony takes place the next hour.

Irene instead of following Herod downstairs, walked to the balcony at the end of the hallway looking at the royal palace from the church.

She started to question herself if she had what it takes to judge people, or even help other people.

"I miss you, mom. I wish we could be together again with father..." she took a deep breath coming back walking downstairs to prepare for the royalty to arrive while setting up the plan.

"Do you get all the evidence??"

"Yes, priest. But even with that evidence, we can't just..."

"Don't worry, it's not about calling out the bad guys...this plan is just for warning them while putting the royalty and the reporter at bay."

"Let me fix your hair for a second, you need to be perfect for your ceremony, priestess." Irene's eyes kept twitching.

Both of her hands were sweating.

'I can't control this power...anymore...'

She put her hand on the necklace, the one she was given by her mother which was also her father's last gift.

The necklace with the tiny purple ore in the middle of the fake gemstone was the only thing keeping her going so far.

She again took another deep breath before walking out of the church to the front gate to welcome the royalty.

"His royal highness, the crown prince is here!!!" the announcer announced loudly to all the of the people on the church's ground. Irene bowed down to the crown prince with a slight headache when seeing his familiar face.

'I didn't get to see him last time...but why is he so familiar...' she denied the thought since the only man she noticed so far was only the man named Philip. And he was only a man from a past, just a stranger who only crossed paths with her once.

"Greeting your royal highness." the prince bowed his head down a little as a sign of respect to the newest priestess.

Irene walked behind the prince signaling to her followers and Herod to get in position.

'Where is duke Jellal??'

The guest soon passed the gate with the excitement to get a gleam of the crown prince's face and the former duke Jellal which rumored stated that he will join the ceremony.

The only royalty that came to the church was the crown prince, and that showed how much the emperor trusted Richard as the successor of his throne.

All the people gathered on the church's ground except for one person who's in the unique color dress, black which was quite unique for holy ground.

With the umbrella covering half of her face, her red lip smirked with the other hands held the bottle of weird liquid.

"It's been a long time, brother...I finally get rid of all of the people you love...today will be your death..." she murmured putting the liquid onto the end of the umbrella with the sharp needle attached to it.

"Jessica...really comes." Herod glared crossing his arm from the big door of the church many meters away from Jessica.

Not any of the people of the church knew the fact that one person will die on the holy ground that day.

One death! Could it be a human? A monster? A shapeshifter? Or a time traveler?

Back to the northern empire,

"Wow, I thought this empire is a frozen land with the dragon, reptile thingy...what's with this sunshine? Rainbow? Sun?? Urgh, it blinded my eyes."

"Shut up, Asmodeus." the demon gripped the tree branches then broke it pointing at the women under that demon.

Blood dripped from Valencia as she stared at the face of the destruction.

"Valencia, give up. Look how beat up you are...without your lackey, what can you do?? Crow?? Pfft." the destruction laughed at her with her messed up face.

On the rocky mountain, blood splattered everywhere making a trial, that trail was the thing giving Asmodeus the clue leading her to assist Valencia who was fighting against the destruction who ended up at the same place as her for hours.

"Where's Lucas, Valencia unnie?"

"Don't call me that, it's disgusting."

"Seriously, you're seriously not cute as my junior at all." Asmodeus pulled out her scissor stabbing the destruction's stomach but ended up hearing the mocking laugh instead of a slight grunt from the destruction.

Asmodeus sat on the scissor to put her weight immobilizing the destruction, she sat crossing her legs staring at Valencia who was unable to heal herself.

"Why don't you heal yourself??"

"I can't...I used up the healing power just to protect myself from that spell."

"Hm? You mean that powerful spell that changed the landscape?" Asmodeus glanced to the citizen gathering at the other side of the mountain from them.

She continued, "It's rare for a weather magic user to be born, even our demon king couldn't control the weather. Do you think it's that cheater bastard again??" her tone changed to deadly with the fingernail got sharper.

"You mean those people called themself a protagonist?? *sigh...it's likely that case again. As we're here, we should suppress them again before they become the 'hero'."

"More like a pest. Give me some of your blood." Asmodeus muttered. Valencia didn't hesitate to slice her hand to let out her blood dripping on Asmodeus's lip.

Asmodeus's hair glow fluttering off the ground again, it became alive having its own will. A second later, Asmodeus cut half of her hair falling down to the ground with her bare arm, those hair on the ground extended longer and then braided itself tying the destruction.

"Do you want to kill anybody else, Valencia?"

"There's one person, but the demon king will deal with her, and especially, we can't let the destruction goes near her."

"Got it."

"By the way, who did you come with?"

"Eh? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh." Asmodeus was expressionless at a moment then she realized the demon she left behind fighting the snow queen spirit alone.

"Haa...ha...I won't...do your mission for you again...Asmodeus..." a demon came behind Asmodeus panting with the ice spear stuck in one of his arms.

He appeared without any of the legendary demons noticing his presence.

"I'm sorry, Ciel Oppa. Please...I'm so lazy...only you're the kindest of all..."

"You abandoned me to...fight...with those annoying pests!!!!"

"It was a misunderstanding..."

"Valencia. Give me some of your blood."

"Yes, sir." she sliced her other arm feeding the first rank her blood, Ciel's eyes glow at the same time the mountain under his feet was shaking.

The amount of power he held was incredible, all of Valencia's wounds were healed.

"We should split up. I'll take the destruction to the demon realm first."

"What if you can't handle her?" asked Valencia.

"Then who will go?"

No one answered, then the first rank demon vanished with the destruction only to appear miles away from the mountain.

"I really want to see him fighting though..." Asmodeus pouted walking down the mountain being all disappointed.

"Asmodeus...I remember all my human's life memories..."

"Huh?? What're you saying??" it was so sudden, Asmodeus stopped walking and turned to Valencia who looked slightly different, she looked like a maiden.

"If I kill the one who makes me remember these painful memories, will these memories go away??"

"No...you will...still..."

"I hate this so much...I don't want to remember all that."

"Valencia...hold yourself together!!!!! We can't...we can't let..."

"Did I just hear someone regain human's memories??"

"The first rank...hear...about it..."

Valencia's limps were cut off, Asmodeus was panic steeping back with her jaw drop and widened eyes staring at the terrifying sight of the first rank.

"Please spare her, she's done nothing wrong!!!!"

"Huh??? Asmodeus, you know too well why demons aren't allowed to have memories, right??"

"No, you can't!!!! It will be another war if you kill Valen--"

"Asmodeus, shut up!!! Stop being so soft and crying like that!!!!!"

"Valencia..."

"It's good that you obey me, it's good working with you, Valencia...farewell."
