Lucifer scowled deeply as the doorbell rung twice. He was in the living room, eating plenty of snacks on the couch while reading a book. He just wanted a lazy hour before having to worry about work. Closing his book and pushing the empty packages aside, he got up and went to answer the door.
"What is it... Alciel?" He greeted informally when he saw the older general standing in front of his door.
"Just reminding you we have duty in an hour. Since you tend to forget some of them." Alciel stated with a disapproving look and Lucifer was about ready to shut the door in front of the man's face.
"I don't forget, I just ignore your letters because you're as annoying as ever."
"Says this midget who gets fussy over the littlest of things." Alciel countered, which made Lucifer fluster at the insult.
"W-Why you-!"
"And also after duties, the king wants you to report to his throne. And he would appreciate if you are punctual this time."
Lucifer turned his back on Alciel as a sign that he heard him. Of course the man began to rant about how disrespectful he was being to a higher general, but Lucifer could care less about he treated that fool. Great, his day is going just peachy. He has morning duties and is most likely going to recieve a deep scolding from the demon lord. He is definitely going to need to relieve his stress afterwards.
"Shut up already, I got it." Lucifer growled under his breath and shut the door on Alciel. He strode to his bedroom and slipped off his robe. Just because he is a general doesn't mean he enjoys ALL the perks that go with it. He just has to deal with idiots for a whole hour and then get another hours' worth of scolding from Maou. Hell, obviously the king's boring speeches aren't going to straighten him up. What Lucifer really needs as a punishment is...
And just like that his dirty thoughts went haywire and he had no choice but to submit to them.
Lucifer quickly went into the meeting room with only three minutes to go. He hastily patted his hair down with a pink tinge to his cheeks. Thank god he managed to finish fast enough to change into his uniform and make it to the meeting with just three minutes to go. Of course Alciel across the room gave him a disapproving look but the man can go piss off. Lucifer stepped beside the older general and the lieutenants instantly hushed, mainly because the purple-haired beauty had arrived. Of course Lucifer paid no attention to the wanting looks he got, seeing as he was too busy thinking about what to eat once he gets home.
"We need to discuss war tactics against the angels." Alciel started while opening several scrolls. Lucifer glanced at them and noticed they were reports. "Several of our spies noted that it is possible the angels will invade. The exact date has yet to be determined. Right now we need to go over our basic combat skills and familiarize ourselves with all battle grounds." Lucifer yawned in response and Alciel scowled.
"General Lucifer, are there any words you would like to add?"
"Why yes, there is." Lucifer straightened up and smirked at the army. "Why don't we just invade Heaven and make the angels beg mercifully as we slaughter away their bloodline?" Eyes widened and whispers were hissed around the room. Alciel sighed heavily and shook his head.
"That requires more work and stamina. And I am positive they are readying theirselves for us in case of any surprise attacks."
"It's a lot more fun."
"War isn't fun."
"You clearly aren't either."
"For the sake of being professional, I'm going to continue on." Alciel said and Lucifer crossed his arms in victory. "The 3rd and 4th Regiment are to be in General Lucifer's care. The 1st and 2nd are to report at sunrise by my training grounds. General."
Lucifer thought for a moment.
"Once his other regiments are done, my group are expected to arrive at the training grounds. No excuses. Late or absent, I'm putting one in your chest." He threatened with a smile, raising a dainty finger. The lieutenants recoiled in fear and Alciel sighed heavily again.
"This concludes today's meeting. Keep an eye out for suspicious figures. Report anything that looks out of the ordinary. Be extra cautious. You are dismissed." As the demons cleared out, Alciel grabbed Lucifer's arm and pulled him aside to a corner.
"Make sure to hide that smart mouth once you confront Lord Satan."
"I'd rather not so he can fill it right up." Lucifer responded instantly and stuck out his tongue pervertedly, causing Alciel to scowl embarrassedly at him.
"Don't you dare say such things! This is the King we are talking about! If he were to catch you speaking such words-!"
"I don't need your lecture on being 'clean'. This is coming from a grown man who uses a harem with preferably young girls-"
"The lord. Now." Alciel commanded over him and Lucifer gave an irritated look.
"Stupid drama queen..." He muttered while turning to leave, yelping when a hand slapped his back rather painfully. "Stuck-up prick too!" He said loud and clear while rubbing his back. How dare Alciel abuse a fellow general like that. He ought to complain to Satan. Unfair treatment. Maybe then the king will make it up to him by giving him the royal treatment-
Focus! FOCUS!
The great doors leading to the throne opened and up ahead as Lucifer walked in, he could see Satan patiently seated although Alciel was not attentively by his side as usual.
"My Lord." Lucifer greeted formally with a smirk while bowing respectably. Satan did not miss the mischievous general's grin but he motioned for everyone else to clear out. Once the room was clear, Lucifer rose and stepped toward the ruler.
"What do you wish to discuss? War plans?" Lucifer asked and Satan raised an eyebrow, knowing the sarcasm all too well.
"For once you are eager about war plans."
"It's my field after all."
"I suggest you cut the act or I may disregard this meeting all together." Lucifer gave a mildly interested look. They were always empty threats but he never pushed the dark king any further.
"How may I be of service to you?" He asked quietly as his mental smile grew wider. Maou raised from his seat and stepped down toward Lucifer. Lucifer only stood still with furrowed brows when they were now in font of each other. Maou was clearly a foot or two taller than him and there was also a clear difference in their muscle visibility.
"I figured it was time to let you know that I have security cameras in your housing." Lucifer blinked as he took two seconds to process this.
"Okay. And?" No big deal, it's not like he plans to go against Satan any time soon. Satan smirked.
"You seem to get quite acquainted with yourself every night." Was his only statement. He needn't say anymore because Lucifer's face burst into a bright red color.
"Y-Y-You... you s-saw...?"
"It's been going on for a while." Maou started to explain as he paced around the general. "At first I was going to to tell you but you're the one who rejected my offer of a harem. So why not let you have enjoy your idea of being sexually relieved?" Lucifer could feel his face sting in embarrassment as his heart thumped faster. Why didn't the damned demon tell him!?
"That's no excuse to keep it a secret and... and... what is even the point of those stupid security cameras!?"
"Watch your tone and volume with me." Maou muttered. "They are different for you. See, the thing is I get plenty of entertainment every night because of you. Especially since you, what was it? Wanted me to 'pound you harder than my punching bag'?" Okay he's had enough of it.
"If this stupid meeting is just about my private life-" Lucifer did not get to finish his sentence because at this point, Maou had grabbed his arm and yanked up forward. The general felt his face brighten once again when he was forced to stand closely to his leader. He could practically feel the heat radiating off of the man.
"You know if you ever run into those sort of problems, I'm here to help." Maou whispered in his ear. Lucifer twitched when the grip on his arm loosened and the hand slid to his waist.
"S-Satan-"
"That concludes our meeting for today, you are dismissed." Maou was heading back to his throne calmly and Lucifer just stood there, too transfixed on the previous interactions.
Just so some people do not get confused, I know in this world, Maou is called Satan or any other formal names. But I'm pretty sure regular fans of this fandom don't want to read "Satan" every chapter and might confuse him for the real one XD. So the narration says "Maou" but the characters' dialogue consist of "Satan, etc.". So there.^^
Other than that, thanks so much for sticking by for another chapter. As always, any word of appreciation or criticism is welcome here. They keep my creativity bubble going!
Kay kay gonna sleep now, its past my bed time. Byeeee
