Sinister Knight: Dawn Of A Sinful Calamity

Chapter 4: No Trust



"Yes" Lilith replied not minding his tone and watching as his eyes narrowed at her.

The feeling of looking forward to something, hoping for something, it was a feeling that Blake hadn't felt in a long time, and surprisingly to him, feeling it at the moment didn't bother him.

Instead, what bothered Blake was the fact that he hadn't thought about Lilith's offer on his own despite already figuring out that the woman needed him for something.

"Is that how far lost I am?" Blake thought to himself but then he quickly focused his attention back on Lilith, quickly stood and began moving towards her.

"Stop there" The woman haughtily said when there were just about three steps between them, but Blake did not listen, looking Lilith right in the eye he covered the distance between them and stood so close to Lilith that they could feel each other breath if they breathed a little heavier, Lilith mostly so considering Blake who had a much taller frame and was looking down at her.

Seeing the fury that was bubbling within Lilith as she was forced to look up at him just so she could keep eye contact, Blake sneered.

"Perhaps, you consider them as lesser beings and trash, but in the end, the men and woman in power whom I have all observed on earth are just like you, full of themselves and expecting other people to do as they say or fall to their manipulations, and there is only ever one thing that interests them, more and more power.

Now it is already more than clear that you need me to accomplish your goal of getting more power, so I would suggest from now on you consider us as partners, and if you think that it is too degrading to your status, then send me on my way to hell, after all, I have nothing to lose while you have me and whatever plans you had made of achieving power at stake."

Blake went silent after his words, and a second later he was suddenly sitting on the couch he had initially plopped on when he first arrived while Lilith was back on her own seat.

"So, you'll become my champion if I agree to bring your parents back to life," Lilith asked assuming her usual posture and looking at Blake like he hadn't just talked down to her and called himself her partner.

"Yes, but can you do that"

"Will I bring up a reward I cannot give?"

"I want something, you want something, this isn't a case of a reward, this is just us using each other, you using me more, because I bet whatever it is you want from me isn't going to be easy by a mile."

"Yes, I can bring your parent back to life" Lilith said going back to the main topic.

"But you aren't a god, you said it yourself that you are one of the rulers of hell, so then tell me how do you plan on resurrecting my parents.'

"If you succeed in the task I am about to give to you, then I will have no problems reviving them, so I guess, you are right, this is a sort of mutual exchange, so are you in."

Though Lilith had been about to explode when Blake had confronted her in such a close proximity, she wasn't a temperamental and unreasonable woman, taking a deep breath, she saw the light of his words, and now speaking with him and seeing the fire in his eyes she felt that she had made the right decision and that this was the way to go about using him.

With the promise of getting his parents back, Lilith couldn't help but salivate at how far the man would go to help her achieve her goals she could imagine him going far and beyond and doing everything in his power to succeed.

"Just find the string and they will dance to your tune" Lilith thought internally, loving how Blake was willing to let himself be used by her just so he could see his parents.

"Urghh, mortals and their attachments,"

"Yes," Blake replied to Lilith, "but how will I be sure that you will keep your own end of the deal when I am done serving you?

"You being my champion is a contract between the two of us, something which not even I can break."

Though he still let his body sink into the couch, Blake let his gaze wander over Lilith's frame as he went into deep thoughts.

"What are you thinking about." Lilith asked

"The several ways in which you can end up betraying me."

'You don't trust me, what reason do you think I have to fail to fulfil the wish of the man who will help me accomplish my goals."

"Your ego, to satisfy it, nothing stops you from vanquishing or sending me back to the depths of hell, because say what you like the truth is that I would always be a scar on your enormous but fragile pride."

"Are you trying to get killed, don't you want to save your parents," Lilith said with a bit of an edge to her tone.

"I do Lilith, but at the same time, I also want to be with them after I am done," Blake said and then sat up.

"So what happens now."

"What happens now is that I will send you to the world where you will be my champion."

"And my cheat what power would I have in this world, after all, I'm assuming I have to do something tough and dangerous in it, an advantage would help"

"Don't worry, It's surprise" Lilith said with a smile, genuinely happy how things had smoothened out and were going just the way she liked it."

"So about the….. " Blake began asking but the room started shaking and Lilith's expression twisted to one of surprise and panic.

"Oh no, we are out of time," Lilith said just as her image began phasing in and out but throughout all this Blake remained calm and instead gave the woman a blank stare even as he felt a sudden weakness begin hitting him.

"I will send you into the body of another, remember not to tell anyone who you truly are and about me, the fact that you are my champion must be kept a secret, we cannot..."

Lilith was still saying more, but this was all Blake heard before the world suddenly went silent and he found himself in a world of darkness
