Chapter 12
Lucifer and Lilith's grand palace had more than one kitchen – more than one of everything. It had beautiful white marble flooring and counters, pretty hanging glass ball lights, and a really nice stainless steel frig and stove. Unlike Stolas's kitchen, there were no giant demonic Venus Flytrap plants which Octavia didn't mind at all.
Queen Lilith prepared breakfast for them with cereal, fruits, coffee, orange juice, and waffles. However, Lucifer being a sneaky bastard snuck a sugar bomb cereal, Chips Ahoy. Lucifer gave Cody a wink as he walked out and Cody smiled and reached for the box. However, what they didn't know was that Lilith saw them and wasn't going to let that happen.
"Nuh-uh," Lilith grabbed the unhealthy cereal out of Cody's hand, "Not on my watch cowboy."
She poured a bowl of really healthy cereal in front of him. Cody's smile disappeared and he groaned while glancing at Octavia. She shrugged as she chewed her food. Then Lilith put some slices of strawberries to have flavor. Cody gave a slight smile as he began eating.
"Did you two sleep okay?" Lilith asked.
Octavia smiled, "Yeah, we did."
"The beds are very comfy. I wonder how Loona and the others are doing," Cody spoke.
"They're fine. If anything happened to them, we'd know. I.M.P. is getting more and more clients and employees. So, they've been busy," Lilith explained.
"I see."
The TV showed Channel 666 News and a lot was happening. In the Gluttony Ring where most Hellhounds live, there were crowds of thousands of Hellhounds rallying. Many of them had posters and picket signs that had Cody's face on them. They were chanting and cheering his name. Among the crowds were armed Hellhound militia packing serious heat of assault rifles, pistols, and shotguns. There were lighting red flares, so there were a large number of red lights and clouds of red smoke. They hung up stuffed dummies that looked like Valentino and the other members of the VVV. They set them on fire while cheering and giving the burning dummies the middle finger. The same thing was happening in other rings like Wraith, Pride, and even in Lust. Demons of all kinds were supporting Cody and celebrating Valentino's death – Imps, Hellhounds, Baphomets, and Succubus & Incubus demons.
However, some were not on Cody's side. The troll demons, snake and lizard demons, and the wendigo demons all wanted Cody dead. They held mass funerals for Valentino. There were hundreds with lit candles mourning the loss of the pimp Overlord.
Katie Killjoy spoke, "The death of Valentino has shaken all of Hell as hundreds of thousands celebrate his death and rejoice in his absence. Cody Laurent has become their hero."
Tom Trench, "However, several thousands of demons also mourn the loss of Valentino and call Cody a villain. Violence rages between the two groups and many places that belonged to Valentino are now up for grabs."
Then the news showed footage of bloody fights. Battles and shootouts between the demons with Cody vs those against him. Hellhounds, Imps, Baphomets, and Succubus demons were killing troll demons and reptile demons through gun fights, melee weapons, and even hand-to-hand combat – there was a lot of blood. There were Overlords on both sides and even Overlords fighting side by side with demon royalty. The enemy Overlords gave it their all to go against the demon royalty but it wasn't enough. Cody saw giant powerful lion and wolf demons tearing apart hordes of enemies.
Then a Baphomet demon who was as big and as strong as Vortex was on top of a car. He had purple fur, white mohawk hair, four black horns two on top of his head on both sides of his red flame candle and two on the sides of his head, and a bit of nine o'clock shadow on his face. He had turquoise-colored eyes and one red eye in between his eyes in the center. He was wearing red pants, a black and red blazer jacket, a dark purple T-shirt with a white satanic star, and an upside-down satanic cross around his neck. He had a heavy machine gun in one hand and a megaphone in the other.
He hollered in a deep loud voice, "Demons of the VVV Legion! A ring of steel and fire surrounds you and your rotten cities! We will crush all who resist the will of Cody Laurent and the Free Demon Union! Abandon your Overlords! Abandon your homes! Abandon all hope!"
All the other demons around gave a loud battle cry in victory as they pressed forward against their enemies. Cody didn't know how to feel about all this, it was so much. Octavia grabbed the remote and turned it off. Lilith went over and hugged Cody close to her and Cody hugged her back.
"It'll be okay. Give it time Cody," Lilith said.
Cody nodded, "Yes, you're right my queen."
They finished breakfast and headed for the time chamber for their training. Both Satan and War stood in front of Cody in fighting stances. Cody's powers were comprised of both light and darkness. The Fallen Angels and the Four Horsemen helped him understand that the light powers were similar to the way of the Jedi. To control and use them were on the principles of peace, harmony, and patience. The dark powers were more of the Sith – rage, anger, and hatred. Sometimes a fight calls for one or the other and sometimes even both.
"Ready boy?" Satan asked.
Cody looked back at Octavia who was standing next to Lamia and Samael with her hands on her hips. Via nodded and Cody nodded back before getting into a ready fighting stance. Conquest, Death, and Famine watched with their arms crossed.
"Born ready," Cody said.
"Good," War said.
War pulled out the giant sword from his back and Satan summoned fire magic in his fists. One of his hands had a red orangish flaming cutlass-shaped sword and on the other hand a flaming mace flail. Cody closed his eyes and concentrated. He practiced his breathing as Samael and Lamia taught him while feeling the power deep within. Then he brought it out and channeled it throughout his body. Cody opened his eyes glowing bright white. Cody's most powerful was using both light and dark powers.
The power engulfed Cody into a big black ball of darkness with a bright white light outline. Then six black angel wings burst open from his back to reveal Cody in his 'light dark' form or angel form, where his wings came out of his back, his eyes still glowing white, and his whole body had a white aura with both white and black lightning zipping around his body. He was almost like an angel Super Saiyan. Cody summoned a giant sword of his own. In his hand, a series of ripples of light flashed before it appeared. It was the same size as War's Dragon Slayer-like sword, but the blade was white stainless steel with a faded blue shade. There were two light blue diamond crystals, one in the handguard with the diamond tip pointing toward the blade and the other at the bottom of the handle. It glowed and had a blue and white flame coming off of the blade. Cody called it his 'Blue Diamond Sword.'
"Man, that sword is awesome," Octavia said taking a picture with her phone.
"Quite so," Conquest added.
The three dashed towards each other. Cody struck first with an overhead strike of his sword on War's sword making a loud clang sound and he ducked as Satan swung with his sword. He then spun around to swing his flaming flail. Cody quickly deflected the flail and shot an energy blast ball at Satan in his gut. It was a good hit as it pushed him back. War summoned flying flaming saw blades that flew with lightning speed toward Cody. Cody used his magic to make a force field to repel the saw blades.
"Atta boy. He's learning," Lamia said nudging Octavia.
"Come on Cody, you got this," Octavia said.
"It's not over yet," Conquest said.
Cody used his dark magic to summon giant strong hands to punch at both War and Satan. War was thrown off his feet and hurled away while Satan grabbed hold of the giant fist holding his ground. Then his bat wings expanded and he quickly flew up and spun around with waves of flame shooting everywhere. Cody stretched out his hands to summon wind magic against the flames. The fire was intense and took every ounce of Cody's strength to fight back the fire. Almost immediately when the flames dispersed, War grappled Cody with chains and he was hurled into the air before being slammed down to the ground. Octavia gasped and she was to sprint toward him, but Lamia and Famine stopped her.
"Hold on Via," Famine said.
"Cody's fine. He's a tough kid and his power cushioned the impact," Lamia assured.
Cody groaned in pain as he tried to get back on his feet, but War held his sword at Cody's throat.
"Sloppy Cody. Sloppy. The Overlords and their hordes will come at you all at once if that's what it'll take to kill you," War said grimly.
"You must be ready and able to fight more than one asshole at once! You have to have your eyes everywhere! Know where every enemy is and where they're gonna be," Satan stated firmly.
Conquest approached, "Part of knowing how to take down your enemies is to attack them where they think they're safe. At the end of the day no matter what powers or weapons you have, the strongest is the one between your ears."
"Guys, come on! Ease up on him! He's a kid!" Octavia called.
"No Princess Via, he's not. He's a unique and special kid. A kid with powers and magic. It's hard because it has to be. There are dangerous and powerful Overlords that are out for his blood," Samael stated.
"No! I'm okay. I can take it," Cody said standing up.
He wiped the blood off of his lip and took a fighting stance, "I'm ready. Let's go again."
"Good, very good," Satan smiled.
"That's the spirit," War said.
They went again and again and again. Each time Cody got better. He learned how to use his senses to get his bearings on everything. Octavia was improving as well. Her weapons of choice were a demonic black and purple cross spear and a red and orange phoenix bow similar to Conquest's bow and he taught her how to shoot it – she was an excellent shot and her arrows lit her targets on fire. Each of the Four Horsemen taught them something. Famine taught them how to harness and control power, how to drain it from all things and to give it all things.
"Feel it flow through you. Concentrate on where you want it to go to give direction," Famine instructed.
Cody and Octavia did so, waving their glowing hands in a swiping motion as they channel the energy. They practiced together taking it from plants and then giving it back to them. Conquest taught them about strategy, where to hit your enemies at their weakest points, and teleportation.
"Even though you're far away when you teleport, be ready to attack your enemy, teleport, and then do," Conquest explained before demonstrating.
Cody did so and it took several practices to get the hang of it but they were quick learners. Death taught Cody to use his old scythe.
"That scythe doesn't just kill your enemies by slicing. It can summon portals to different dimensions and call upon beasts of great strength and power. You need to know the right words," Death instructed.
He taught Cody the magic words in black speech. Then Cody raised his scythe high, said the words, struck down on the ground, pulled hard to rip open a portal, and a swarm of red and black spirits with wings, claws, and fangs flew out and tore apart the targets as Cody told them to do. War taught Cody and Octavia how to summon weapons and how to use them.
"Each weapon has a unique power. Using the right tool for the right job could mean the difference between life and death. For example, the katanas and spears are quick and light so you use that to take down fast targets. Whereas weapons like a hammer or axe are heavy but they carry more momentum so they can break through armor," War explained.
Octavia summoned her demonic cross spear. She dashed forward and took out her practice targets with some amazing slashes and stabs.
"Woohoo! That's what I'm talking about!" Cody cheered.
Octavia smiled with a blush.
Samael and Lamia taught Cody how to use his light and dark powers. Cody in his full dark form was where he looked mostly like a shadow similar to a Heartless from Kingdom Hearts. Only in his dark form, Cody's body was dark and black like a shadow and he had sharp black horns sticking out the sides of his head. His eyeballs were black with white pupils. His hands and arms were bigger with claws.
In this state, he could use all of his dark powers like those giant dark demonic hands and arms to punch and grab his enemies. He could use dark magic to summon dark monsters and beasts, summon a field of sharp to strike from the ground to impale his enemies, and shoot dark energy blasts that explode along with all kinds of other abilities.
His light form was different. His six black wings came out, his eyes were glowing white, his whole body and his wings were outlined with glowing light, and he had a white halo over his head Being the son of two angels he could weld Heaven's light that could wound or even kill demons, but it wasn't easy to master. With his light powers, he could use a blinding flash of light, teleport anywhere in the blink of an eye, fire light blasts and flames, and even self-heal or control time itself along with his 'lighting Hulkbuster' form. Cody practiced all these, but using both states brought a whole new level of power.
Two weeks outside the time chamber realm was close to six months inside of it. After all that training Cody mastered his full dark and light powers and his body grew as well. He was slightly taller, and physically fitter, and his voice was slightly deeper. Octavia achieved her full demon form as well. Her full demon form was very similar to Stolas's full demon form, only hers was purple and black rather than blood red like her father's. When she went into her full demon form, she was practically a juggernaut. She sliced her targets to ribbons, burn them to ashes in an instant with purple flames, and moved with lightning speed.
"Wonderful, just wonderful Via. Honestly, you are everything that makes a Goetia princess," King Paimon praised as he approached her.
"Thanks, grandpa," Octavia replied.
"I told ya she was gonna be deadly," Lamia grinned.
"Not gonna lie Via, your full demon form is scary. Same with yours my king," Cody said.
King Paimon chuckled a laugh, "Good, I'd hate for all that effort not to be frightening."
Cody was now taking on War, Satan, and Samael. They stood surrounding Cody with their weapons drawn out and ready to strike. Cody concentrated and grunted loudly as he summoned his full 'light dark' angel form. He was engulfed with the power in a dark ball of darkness with a white light outline. Then it burst open to reveal Cody. His eyes were glowing white light, his six black wings were out on his back, his black devil horns were sticking out of his head under his white halo, and his arms had both black and white lightning zipping around with bigger zaps coming from his torso as his whole body was glowing white light. His powers made a loud humming sound similar to a high-voltage power plant.
Octavia got chills gazing at him in his prime potential state. King Paimon grinned a satisfactory smile and the other Fallen Angels and Four Horsemen were impressed as well.
"Oh this ought to be good," King Paimon said.
"You said it. I'm not gonna miss this," Lamia added.
While they were excited, Octavia was nervous. The three dashed towards Cody but waited until they were close before doing a blinding light flash. War and Satan didn't see it coming, but Samael did as he closed and covered his eyes. However, Cody grabbed him with his giant dark hands and threw him into Satan. They grunted angrily as they slammed into each other. War pulled out flash bangs and smoke grenades to repel against Cody. He then pulled dual machine guns and fired into the smoke, but Cody was high in the air. War saw him up them and pulled his fists together pointing at Cody to release a giant flame burst, but Cody absorbed the fire and redirected it back at him. War grunted angrily and summoned a shield spell.
As Satan and Samael got back on their feet, Satan fired giant fireballs at Cody and then Samael shot a big dark energy beam. Cody used his powers to make a shielded ball that deflected the attacks. Cody shot light and dark energy blasts at them making a loud boom sound. However, both Satan and Samael flew in opposite directions and came at Cody from his right and his left. Cody teleported at the last second forcing Satan and Samael to force a turn to avoid colliding with each other.
"Oh shit! That was clever," Famine said.
"I agree," Conquest said rubbing his chin.
"Come on Cody," Octavia whispered clasping her hands together.
Cody teleported behind War and kicked him hard sending him flying toward Satan and Samael. Then Cody summoned both his Blue Diamond Sword in one hand and Death's scythe in the other. He charged toward them at lightning speed. His weapons clashed and clanged hard at Samael's, Satan's, and War's weapons. Cody was attacking them so fast and hard he was forcing them back and they were struggling to keep up.
Cody struck hard at all three's weapons making them stagger back. Then he summoned two giant dark demonic arms to punch them hard from both sides crushing them. They grunted in pain before Cody zapped them with white lightning. They all fell backward sliding to the ground and then Cody got close to bring his sword and his scythe to their throats.
He won. Octavia cheered joyfully while clapping and hopping. Her grandfather King Paimon raised his eyebrows impressed. Conquest and Famine chuckled a pair of smiles. Samael, Satan, and War looked at Cody while catching their breaths as Cody was catching his breath as well. At that moment, Cody truly felt strong. He felt like his big brother Tommy. Before he was a normal little boy, now he took on Satan, Samael, and the horsemen War and he won.
Then they smiled and Satan was the first to speak, "Well done boy."
"Now that's what I'm talking about," War praised with a smile as he stood up.
Samael sat up, "Good, very good boy. Those Overlords got something to be afraid of now."
Cody bowed his head, "Thank you, my dark lords."
Octavia jogged over and hugged Cody, "Cody, you were amazing! I got chills from that."
"Thanks and your full demon form is wicked awesome."
They all exited the time chamber and headed for Lucifer's throne room.
"What happens now?" Via asked.
"We'll give Lucifer the good news that you two have now completed your training. He'll decide what to do from there. We still don't know where Vox and Velvet are or the rest of the Overlords on their side," Conquest explained.
"Can we see our friends soon?" Cody asked.
"In due time sunshine," Lamia assured.
"You two go on upstairs. You can shower and relax. We'll call you after we discuss some things," Samael stated.
Cody looked at Octavia and she looked back at him. She knew how much he missed Loona and the others. They were all dying to see Cody again. Via had her arm around Cody's shoulder keeping him close as they walked upstairs. They both took a shower and after they were clean, Octavia lay in her bed browsing Sinstagram. Cody came in and lay in bed with her with his head over her heart. While still browsing on her phone, she glided her fingers through his soft hair making him feel relaxed and at ease.
Via looked down at her human friend with a warm smile. Then she video-called Loona on her phone and it wasn't long before she answered.
"Octavia?" Loona spoke.
"Hey Loona," Octavia said.
"How's it going?"
"We're good. Cody and I just finished our training. My grandfather, the horsemen, and the Fallen Angels are talking with Lucifer and Lilith about what to do next."
"Cool. How's Cody?"
Octavia moved her phone so that Loona could see Cody napping on her. Loona gave a small gasp with a smile at Cody's cute sleeping state.
"Oh Cody," Loona said while shaking her head, "Sometimes he's too cute for words."
"I know, right?" Octavia agreed while rubbing Cody's head.
"I wish I was there right now."
"Actually, you can be. I can summon portals now, without the Grimoire."
Octavia put down the phone and waved her hand until a purple glowing aura appeared and a portal opened. Loona was sitting at her desk at I.M.P. She turned to see the portal and Octavia lying in bed with Cody. She smiled and entered the portal. She approached Cody and planted several kisses on his head while stroking his head. Her eyes scanned the rest of Cody and her smile was faint.
"Is it me or is Cody bigger than I remember?" Loona asked.
"Yeah, he is bigger. The time realm that we trained in made time faster. It's only been two weeks here, but in there it was more like six months," Via explained.
Loona's eyes widened, "Six months?"
"Yep, so Cody's probably well past twelve at this point. He's growing up fast."
Loona sighed, "Yeah."
"You would not believe how powerful he is."
Octavia told Loona everything about their training, of Cody's power forms of light, darkness, and both. She told her what they can do and how Cody beat War, Satan, and Samael all at once. Loona wasn't someone that could easily be impressed, but she was, especially when Via showed her the videos of them sparring. As Loona watched Cody transform into his light-dark angel form and witnessed him fighting and all his powerful and magical moves, she got chills. Her boy was now this new powerful being and she feared what the future holds him, and for all of them.
Cody moaned before opening his eyes and when he did, he saw his favorite person in the whole world, Loona. They had eye contact and smiled.
"Loona," Cody spoke softly.
"Hi honey," Loona said warmly while holding his hand.
"I missed you a lot."
"Yeah, and I missed you a lot too kiddo."
Cody patted the bed for her to lie down next to Octavia. Loona lay in bed next to Octavia and continued to stroke Cody's head. Cody gently twirled his finger in Loona's long hair as the three quietly enjoyed the peaceful moment together.
