Chapter 62 Beelzebub, A Demon Freed.

Shuna stood in front of Uta and watched as she teared up while banging her hands on the ground.

It was a rare sight for her, she had never seen Uta so vulnerable before, even in her past life.

Shuna bit her lower lips in annoyance as her eyes glanced past Zeno, she immediately began walking toward where the demon's body was.

When she got there, she saw Mammon's flesh slowly coming together, "There you are." Shuna uttered.

She stretched out her staff and a bright light shone right after before the eyes of seer appeared.

It hovered above the Demon's scattered flesh, with white thick mist pouring profoundly out of it.

Taking a deep breath Shuna grabbed the eye of seer and placed it on the ground before using her hands to write a symbol above it.

As soon as the symbol was formed, a gush of wind rushed out of the seer and it began vacuuming every demon in the area.

Shuna watched as the relic did its job, different demons were getting absorbed by the relic.

"Ahhh, this is what you wanted right?... Successor." Shuna muttered to herself right before tears rolled down her cheeks.

...…............

[Flash back over… present time.]

Zeno's eyes widened in shock as he looked to the ground, the sudden flashback he got was both confusing and understandable.

Uta noticed Zeno hadn't moved a muscle since she started telling the story, "Zeno?" She called out softly, moving closer to him to see his face.

When she got close, Zeno immediately grabbed her by the arm and pulled her close, "Uta?! Mammon Vee Bond… What happened to him?!" He asked aggressively.

"Shuna trapped him in the relic," Uta responded calmly, Uta then looked him in the eye, "Does this mean you remember?" She asked.

Zeno calmed down and released his grip from Uta's arm, "Yeah, more like I just remembered, although it's still kinda fuzzy, but I think I got the gist of it." He said.

He immediately turned his gaze to Lucifer who still had the same grin on his face, Zeno began making his advance toward him.

"Oh? Now too wanna fight?" Lucifer asked with excitement.

"I am not here to fight with you Lucifer, just hand over the eye of seer and that's all." Zeno said calmly.

Lucifer immediately frowned, "Who the hell do you think you are issuing a command to me!" He yelled, before firing a fast beam at Zeno.

Zeno slapped the laser to the side and it went exploding on another rock, "Lucifer, I'll ask you again, release the eye of seer." He said assertively.

... "Okay," Lucifer replied.

"Uhn?" Uta was puzzled by Lucifer's reply, she knew Lucifer well and his acceptance like that was off character, even Zeno was shocked.

"Okay?" Zeno repeated.

"Yeah, of course, you want me to release it right? Sure." Lucifer said with a straight face.

"... Okay, hand it over and i-"

"Oops." Lucifer immediately smashed the eye of seer on the ground leaving everyone watching in shock.

The relic shattered on the ground and everywhere went silent as they expected something to happen.

"Nothing's happening." Ava muttered while she looked around for any changes.

Uta was the only exception, anger had completely taken over her face as she stormed toward Zeno.

"What the hell did you do Lucifer!" Zeno yelled with rage.

Lucifer just laughed, "Ahhhh, the world is about to know true change… I told you didn't I… the curse lives on." He uttered with a bit of anger in his voice.

"Bastard!".

Before Zeno could leap to the sky, Uta held his hand, "We should go." She uttered and began dragging Zeno away.

"Wait! Uta!" Zeno protested.

As soon as they stopped they heard a voice speak behind them. The voice was deep and had a lot of terror embedded in it.

"Where do you think you're going? I've only just got here." Said the voice.

Zeno looked to his side and saw the terrified look on Uta's face, "Uta?" He muttered, He looked front and noticed everyone was just as terrified.

'What the hell was that voice just now.' Zeno thought to himself.

He slowly turned to check what the voice was about, and what he saw was frightening enough for him to move back a bit.

Just at the other side of the cliff, a huge purple figure with four horns stood on the cliff with purple demons rushing out of the ground.

Some of them were falling off the cliff while some stood their ground at the back of the huge demon with creaky laughs coming out of their mouths.

"What the hell is that?" Zeno muttered to himself, the demon he was looking at held so much terror and fear that it could be felt all around.

Meanwhile, Lucifer stood at the back, laughing his guts out at the expressions he was seeing on their faces.

The huge purple demon turned to Lucifer, "Vek han kek jur kmon?".

Lucifer smiled, "Uada! Jik grik life han kmon".

After Lucifer responded the demon laughed, his deep voice made the ground vibrate, "Five hundred years, I've been trapped for five hundred years." He uttered.

Another purple humanoid octopus body walked up to the huge demon, "Sire, I'm not sure you've noticed but there are humans in front of us." The demon mentioned.

The demon looked at Zeno and his crew and a grin hit his face, "I am starving, and how good a luck it is, that my food just walked up to me." He voiced out.

"Ava, get ready to run." Anna uttered.

"No sis, you have to run, you're the only one here with no powers, I can handle myself with Geko, not you." Ava replied with a serious look on her face.

"What the hell do you mean by that?" Anna yelled.

"You should listen to your sister." Horina adviced, "That Demon is no joke, I've have never seen anything bring so much fear before".

Hina was having different memories return to her as she stared at the demon, different revelations were hitting her the longer she looked at him.

"Zeno!" Hina called out, she ran to his side and hugged him from behind.

"I remember… I remember everything." Hina said with a smile.

Zeno was shocked but the unsettling feeling he was getting from the demon was stopping him from even staying calm.

Uta managed to move out of her shock and slowly looked at Hina, "W-what do you mean you remember?" She asked Hina.

Hina sent a serious face back at her, "I remember everything… Uta… it's gonna happen again? Or did you manage to lift the curse after I died?" She asked.

Uta looked to the side, trying to avoid the question because Zeno was standing there, and as predicted by her, he got curious.

"Hey Hina, what are you talking about? What's this about a curse?" Zeno asked.
