Samael POV:
After I finished my breakfast with my son, I move on with my usual duty, bring back the dignity of the underworld, a long and very complicated work believe me.
Why must I do that? Simple.
Long story shorts, my grand-grand-grandfather Belzebial was the ruler of the most powerful tribe of Perim. He decides to annihilated the other tribes and nearly succeed. He made one mistake. He attacks the 3 tribes at the same time and it cost us so much. The 3 other tribes made an alliance against our kind and destroy the entire Underworld their heart was empty of pity and they were only seeking vengeance. Belzebial has been killed and his son Vulgrim, take the lead. He manages to make a peace treaty before our extinction without losing the last dignity of the Underworld. The treaty condition is long over but we are still too weak for great dream. The reason is the failure of Belzebial. It weaken my position has overlord and made the Underworlder doubt our family can stay in the throne and one of them his Van Bloot. I know he's planning something against me and I remain cautious.
I must regain the entire confidence of my tribe under my grasp and destroy any traitor against my family and stabilising our title as overlord.
4 years ago I made one though decision I knew will cause me trouble. I accept the presence of the humans in the Underworld. Honestly, I thought they couldn't survive, but…they not only survive, they accept, more or less, how we live in the Underworld. I was surprise by that kind. In the end, this bad decision turns out good and strengthens my power. Another things surprise me, but we knew it concern all humans…power begun to awake in them and that made them stronger 3 years ago.
"My lord…hello, we are in the middle of a conversation." Says a voice. It was Agitos, my loyal advisor. Since he was young, he was my advisor. He his physically weak but his wisdom is far superior than most of the underworlders.
"Sorry, what we were talking about?" I ask uneasy.
"*Sigh.*" Agitos sign with exasperation. "We were talking about a way to destroy Van Bloot influence and obtain a momentum and reaffirm your position as the true Overlord. Then your son future will be secure and the Underworld strength shall be restored."
"That's right…" I look at the window and I saw the 2 humans who caught my interest. They are the only one who came to the castle time to time when I summon them: Kazdan Kalinkas or his under name Kaz. I don't very know him but…something caught my eyes in him, but I don't know what. He wears a red jacket and a black shirt. He also wears 2 dark bracelets on each of his arm. He has red…orange hair and peach skin. I know his power came from the fire element, but he hasn't showed it. I think he doesn't need to show his power. He prefers people knowing him for his personality and not his strength. He has a good underworlder friend, H'earring. They relationship begin by a give-give until they became friend. His human friend is Catherine Walter. She has blond hair and pale peach skin. She wears a blue T-Shirt and a green skirt. She also wears a necklace where she engraves the insignia of the underworld. She is a friend of Khybon…Don't ask how she does this but she did it. Those 2 humans are the most loyal to me. Don't get me wrong, all the humans living here are loyal to me but those 2 participates strongly to defend my name when they talk with the underworlders.
"HelloOOO!" Shout Agitos. I turn my attention to him. "Again? You really need to focus."
"I'm sorry, I saw those 2 humans." I answer.
"You mean Kaz…dan and Catherine. It's true they are interesting humans but you should focus on your duty for now." Says Agitos.
"You are interest in Kazdan don't you?" I say.
"Wha-euh…no…" He replies hesitantly. "I'm not THAT interest." He was lying.
"I now the way to create a momentum…we must found a way to broke Van Bloot influence…hum…I think the 2 humans can do something…They will act like they aren't obeying by me and they find proof to discredited him." I propose.
"It won't work, Van Bloot must have send spies among us…but they can be useful…I think I know a plan." He says.
"Well, what is it?" I ask.
"It's better you ignore it. I shall sent someone to call them in the castle…I'll talk to them…in private." He says.
11h12
I move in the throne room. I saw my son Chaor waiting me in the throne room.
"What is it?" I ask, praying he won't talk about the human presence again.
"Why did you invite those 2 again?" Ask Chaor a little frustrated about them. He hears my conversation with Agitos. "You shouldn't give them too much trust in them. They can stab us in the back an-."
"Like any underworlder." I reply calmly. Chaor found nothing else to say.
"Is that all?" I ask.
"No…Why don't you just kill Van Bloot? The problem will be immediately resolved." He says.
"No…If I do that, other shall rise and my influence will be smaller in the eyes of the underworlders, because they may think I fear Van Bloot and this time…we may never have a chance to regain our glory and we will just fade away." I say.
Chaor was quiet for a while. He understood my explanation and says nothing else. He's smart like me but a little more impulsive. It's a good thing is best friend Takinom can control or readjust his impulse temper when it's need.
"You really need to control your anger. If you don't…you may cause our end." I say seriously.
"…I'm sorry." He says.
"As for the humans…you need to trust those two, my instinct tells me they will greatly help us in the future. For the sake of the underworld do this for me." I ask.
"I'll try." Says Chaor.
My son was only calmer when he is by my side…and he only obeys to me and…sometimes…Agitos. Chaor knew how much I have done to regain our prosperity has overlord and he doesn't want to put my effort in waste. He knew I do this all for him. I know he will be a great overlord when the time will come…I have complete fate in him.
"Better train yourself." I say.
"I'm a young adult…I'm 35 after all. I don't need you to decide when I shall train or not." Says Chaor. He then gets out of the room. I look myself at the mirror in the throne room. Chaor only inherit his mother skin color compare to me. I have purple skin like my ancestor Kiru. My spike around my body is dark as the night on the Overworld. I have two long and sharp horns on my front. I wear the same cloths as Chaor. I don't need anything else. I'm very muscular and my body is cover with scar from previous battle.
I was wondering what plan Agitos has in his brain.
11h16
Khybon POV:
I was in workshop repairing my Mowercycle. I broke it when I've done a wrong turn. Dammit, why didn't I see that turn? She will be disappointed.
"Hello there." Says a female voice. It was Catherine. She gives me a gentle smile. Dammit, I can't resist that smile.
"Hello there." Says Kazdan, Catherine best friend.
"Hi." I say. I was also preoccupied with the reparation of my Mowercycle.
"It seems you've broke your locomotion." She says.
"Well…accident happen to anyone." Says Kazdan in a way that significant I've made a stupid mistake.
"Don't try to guess what happen!" I warn him slowly.
"Alright." He says quickly.
"Too bad, I've really wanted to do the ride with you." Says Catherine.
"I'm sorry, I'll repair it faster and we'll enjoy the ride." I say when I saw her sad look.
"Are you sure? He doesn't seem the prudent type." Says Kazdan.
I grunt and Kazdan says nothing else. I look at Catherine, I encounter her 4 years ago when she was 10…Kazdan was 11. They are still young but they are very capable of surviving. When I saw Catherine, I'm impressed how much she grown up…and also her bust. I don't know how but they are way bigger then when I first saw her…my face must have turns red because Kazdan says:
"You perv."
"NO!" I shout. Catherine then laughs.
"It's alright, Kaz just teasing you right?" She says.
"Yeah right." He says not convinced by her words.
The door of my shop open.
"There you are!" Shout a soldier of the Underworld.
"Yes." I say.
"Not you them."
"What do you want with us?" Asks Kazdan.
"Agitos invited you to come to the castle. He needs you for something. You must come now." Says the solder.
"Alright." The 2 humans agreed.
When they were walking out of my shop, Catherine turns around and she gives me a wink. I smile at her when she gets out of my shop…Why did she have to leave so soon?
13h59
Agitos POV:
I was waiting for them for so long. I thought they will be here an hour ago. Maybe they are not in the Underworld City today?
"I brought them Agitos." I turn around and saw the soldier bring them in.
"Alright, you can leave now." I say.
"Yes, Sir!" The solder obey and I was alone in my room with the 2 humans.
"What do you want?" Ask Kazdan. I look at him and his curious eyes. He was a little like me, he's physically weak but his brain was very active and wary at his environment.
"I…need your help." I say.
"What do you want?" Ask Catherine.
"I need you to take down Van Bloot." I say.
I look around and I whispered my plan with the human.
"I don't see anything wrong with that." Says Kazdan after he analyse my plan.
"When do we begin?" Ask Catherine.
"Tomorrow…for now…I suggest you sleep in the castle…I don't want anyone to know about this." I say.
"Sure." They say excitably. They get out of my quarter and I was alone.
I look at Kaz again…I mean Kazdan.
I sign. He's a little like me…maybe that's why I like him. I made a decision; I'm beginning to be old so I'll make him my successor as an advisor. After all, more than half of my life already passes…I'm still quite capable of performing my duty you know.
20h12
Chaor POV:
I grunt in frustration that the humans have been invited in the castle, but I didn't say any comment when I saw them. I just look at them pass and they didn't talk to me when they saw me. The girl just smile at me and I didn't like it. She clearly didn't fear me and my strength. As for the boy…He seems to fear and admire me at the same time. I don't really know them but I clearly saw great potential in them…sleeping in their body. That something must be what my father saw. I them went to bed and get some sleep. I was exhausted from my training.
11h57
3rd POV:
The night was here, even if it can't be seen in the Underworld. In the castle of the Underworld, someone enter by the window. It walks though the corridor slowly and surely without being seeing by the guard. In his 2 hands, 2 bottle with some strange liquid and on his face, a murderous look. He walks until he reach the chamber…Samael chamber.
AC; Cliffhanger. Don't worry the next episode of Rise of the Underworld is already beginning to be made. Hope you like it.
