<<Shut up, bitch.>>

Clenching her fists hard, Lilith's stomach churned in paranoia when she suddenly felt too hot and cold, making her limbs tingle.

Lilith couldn't allow Luna to hold the reins of her consciousness while Luxen was here, so she pushed her out of her mind with all her might.

When Luna's mental hands prying her open vanished, Lilith heaved a sigh of relief.

It was a success.

She had to hurry up and the Archdemon of Lust his purpose.

"So, what's? the plan, Lilith?" Luxen asked, and his silver gaze was so intense that he might as well chew her and spit her out.

Her entire body went taut when Lilith sensed Luna's consciousness skirting around the edge of her thoughts as she informed Luxen, "I just realized that the evil spirits around here are residual energies of demons with mediocre strength. They aren't going to inflict serious harm on our enemies even if we merge them with another." Can Luna hear what she was talking about? "It wouldn't be enough."

"Hmm." Luxen rubbed his chin in contemplation as he glanced down at her,? "Please continue."

"I will summon your Demonic Legion instead of mine so that you have demons to order? around during our invasion in? the Material Realm."? Determined, she continued further, "I want the President of? your Legion to lead the pillaging of the Kingdom we will own in the future while you follow the Vampire King on our journey, investigate who our companions are and where we are going."

The Archdemon gave her an incredulous as if he couldn't believe what he just heard, "You want me to spy on you and your group while my Legion is preoccupied on conquering Realms?"

"Yes."

"What is this journey you are talking about?"

"I could not figure out where we are going and I don't how many members are in this group. The only thing I know was that… it was so important that the Goddess Hecate had to be involved to make this mission a success." Lilith explained, and her scowl deepened as she slightly pulled down her bodice to show him Luna's tattoo.

In the past, Luxen had spoken to Lilith about the Mark he found just below her collar bone when he made love to her the night he planted his seed for the ritual.

Both of them found it strange but now that she was here in the Material Realm, everything started to make sense, "I? already speculated that they are trying to get rid of me in Luna's physical vessel since she had returned to being Hecate's High Priestess from the this mark I had on my chest."

"You are talking about our future Kingdom and my Legion?" Luxen raised an eyebrow and smirked, "Does this mean that you had no plans summoning the Demon King and the rest of the Archdemons in Hell?"

"Don't you think the entire Material Realm is small for the two of us?" Lilith's lips cracked into a seductive grin. If she were a smart Archdemon, she would do no such thing. The entire Material Realm is hers and hers alone. Archdemon Kingdoms were hers to create and hers to destroy. "Think and advance to the location we are headed and destroy anything that would remove me? from Luna's body. Assassinate Luna's companions while you were at it."

"I had another question that I want you to address." The Archdemon of Lust must be tired of beating his Archdemon wings that he flew closer to her--his feet treading lightly--before he landed at the very edge of the highest cliff.

She scrambled backwards to accommodate him, but it seemed like he didn't need it in the first place when he stretched his Archdemon wings so wide to keep his balance.

Luxen was the type to court danger.

He knew perfectly well that he was invincible as an Archdemon Soul in the Material Realm.

Lilith wished she had the same courage but being in a pregnant vampire's body prevented her from risking her life.

She was too vulnerable even in the presence of another Archdemon like Luxen—most especially from the one who never gave up trying to steal her control over this physical vessel.

And ff she lost her footing here, she might plunge into the abyss and embed her heart with a random wooden stake from below.

"You said that you wanted to become Queen of the entire Realms while I become the King. What would happen to the Vampire King, then?" Luxen clasped his hands behind his back, gazing down at her with his moonbeam gaze while she was on her knees. "—or was this just another ploy so that you can have someone? to push about—until the time you and the Vampire King decided to become rulers without breaking a sweat, sitting on a throne I worked so hard to prepare?"

Lilith paused for a minute as she weighed down her words to reassure him.

"I would never do that." She said.

It seemed that both of them had similar concerns, and it truly made sense.

She was an Archdemon calling another Archdemon asking to ask for help.

Sometimes, if the bargain seemed unfair, they would double-cross each other halfway unless a binding contract had been drawn.

Most Archdemons refused contracts from another Archdemon because of their fear of slavery and imprisonment from the other. "You helped me a lot so that I can possess this body, Luxen, so believe me when I promise you that I? wouldn't dare throw you away if I don't need? you anymore."

"I'm pretty useful to you that was why you summoned me, huh?" Luxen crouched down in front of her, grabbed her arms and pulled her upright. "Good to hear that."

Lilith's muscles were strung tight when he brought his face closer to her and murmured, "Based from the fact that the Vampire King performed an exorcism on your physical vessel to get Luna's soul back, did this mean that he already figured out that you are an impostor?"
