I'm The Devil - Chapter 7: Lucifer and Gaia

Chapter 7: Lucifer and Gaia

“Bloody Hell”

Lucifer who just left Hell just a moment ago, found himself in the middle of a clash between two gigantic sides. He didn’t even get the chance to register where he was when he felt a sharp thing pointed at him, he turned around with his hands held up to she a woman with a naturally green curly hair with green eyes that screams life.

“Who are you? Where are you from? You are not one of the Primordial gods and you are not a friend of Ouranos, so who are you? Answer me before I push this spear right through you” Gaia said as she pinned her spear at the chest of Lucifer who looked at her with amusement.

Lucifer looked at the woman who was threatening him and had an inkling to who she might be, but the myth about her didn’t do her Justice at all, damn, she is a fierce one.

He smiled and said “you ask so many questions that I don’t know which one to answer, but one thing that I do know is that I don’t like to be threatened and also, I believe in gender equality” said Lucifer as he held the spear pinned at him and crushed it before giving her a backhand slap, which sent her flying and slamming into a ruined wall.

Lucifer looked at his surroundings and found out that the people were so engrossed in their battle to even notice him.

Lucifer walked to Gaia who was already getting up and glaring at him.

Gaia looked at the man before her with fury and burning hatred while devising ways to get back at him.

Gaia stood up and dusted herself before looking at the man “cough, who are you? I have never seen you before, I’m Gaia, the Primordial goddess of the Earth” Gaia introduced herself to him and acted polite to know who he truly is and if she might be able to get something from it to use against him.

Lucifer smiled at the introduction of Gaia and he also decided to do the same “I’m Lucifer Morningstar, the Devil, Lord of Hell” Lucifer created a chair out of tin air and sat down.

Gaia was confused as to who this mysterious and handsome man is and what the hell is even a Devil.

Lucifer seeing the confusion in her eyes realized that she did not know of anything pertaining the Devil “oh, you wouldn’t know that, I haven’t been around for over ten million years but you can call me Lucifer, that’s better, right?” Lucifer said to her before he started watching the father and children rumble that was currently going on.

Gaia stood besides him and stared at him intensely trying to recall if she had seen him somewhere “you said that you haven’t appeared for the past ten million years, so you are like us but what I don’t get is why you didn’t show up when we all had a gathering” Gaia asked him as if he was a Primordial like them, then he should have appeared the day they were all born.

Lucifer raised a brow at her when she mentioned that they all had a gathering “you said you had a gathering, are there more of you? Apart from you, Ouranos, Nyx, Erebus and Tartarus?” Lucifer wondered what the gathering is all about as he thought that only Greco – Roman myth gods were created. nÊw st𝒐ries at n𝒐/vel/b/i/n(.)co𝒎

“I don’t know how you knew about us when you are not a Primordial god like us but let me tell you something that you are mistaken about, there is no Tartarus amongst us or any of the other Primordial gods. Tartarus is a place or should I say a prison Ouranos created to imprison our children because of their deformity. As for your question about if there is any other Primordial gods other than us, yes there is, they are too numerous for me to mention. So unto my question, what are you and if you were created ten million years ago, why haven’t we heard anything about you?” Gaia explained and asked a question of her own.

Lucifer didn’t get the question that Gaia asked as he was to engrossed in his own thoughts. He was excited about the information he just got and the possibilities that comes with it, the diverse gods, the myths about them, he wanted to meet with them, interact with them, beat up a few them and recruit the devils of the myths, people like Nezha, Sun Wukong, Loki and many others. This is the adventure he has been desperately seeking for.

While Lucifer was dreaming about his adventures with the gods, Gaia was just staring at him with a deadpan expression as she has be calling him for like five minutes now, seeing as she could not get through to him with words she decided to slap his unconscious state awake “you ask for it” Gaia infused energy into her hands as she raised it and strike Lucifer and to say she is happy about doing something like this would be a lie, in fact, she is thrilled, but what she expected and what she got was vastly different, her attack did not have the exact effect she wanted, instead she felt a strange force holding her hand in place.

Gaia was surprised as to how easily he stopped her with him even paying attention to her, [who the hell is he, how can he be so powerful, he is not even putting me in his eyes since the moment he arrived, it was as if we were ants to him. Ever since my birth, there is no one, not even Ouranos can easily stop my attack. I bet the only way to make him use his full strength is when all the power heads come together and face him if not, he is going to wipe the floor clean with them. Sigh, if he was here earlier, I would have persuaded him to deal with Ouranos for me] Gaia thought before she felt someone flicking her forehead.

“urgh, what did you do that for?” Gaia cried out in pain as she held her forehead.

Lucifer simply smiled at her “well, I was giving you a taste of your own medicine, actually a lesser version, so what were you asking me?” Lucifer said before he turned his attention back to the Battle in front of him and he could see that it was close to his climax as Ouranos was in a disadvantageous state.

Gaia just sighed and said “what are you and if you were created ten million years ago, why haven’t we heard anything about you?”

Lucifer turned to her “well, let me make something clear, I am 12.5 billion years older than you, so you are inferior to me in many ways and why haven’t appeared during the ten million years, let’s just say, I was under house arrest” Gaia’s world of view shattered when she heard him, she thought they, the Primordial gods were the oldest beings in the vast Cosmos but here she was proved wrong, the man before her was by far older than her and from the looks of it, he is not alone.

Gaia looked at Lucifer who was now focused on the fight intently as if he saw waiting for something as she could see the excitement in his eyes [just what does the Cosmos hide and how is this man related to our birth] Gaia said in her heart before she too focused on the battle.

A/N

Many of you are wondering if this is a Fanfic or an original Novel. Well, the answer is, this is an Original Novel and not a Fanfic.

This is what they call a Mythoverse, a book based on Myths, but I will not only focus on myth alone but I will add other fantasy element to it later in the road.

Thanks for reading. And comment, drop power stones and reviews if you ate enjoying it. Thank you.
