Sign a contract with the devil

destined to meet

The car passed through a section of lush oak forest, turned from the dirt road to the main road, passed through the commercial area, and drove to a sparsely populated area.There are narrow ditches on both sides of this road, and dwarf willow trees are planted on both sides of the ditch. In April, catkins float in the air like snowflakes. When passing by by bicycle, it feels like a dream.It is already deep winter, and the willow trees on the side of the road are all withered, only the camphor tree is still green.

The car continued to drive forward and arrived at a quiet villa area.

The houses here are all in the same shape, with triangular roofs, two-story structures, balconies facing south, and brown paint on gray brick walls.The yard is small, with a round table and a square parasol above the table.The yard is surrounded by green bushes, and there is a small vegetable garden of two square meters in the open space on the left, in which cabbage and radishes are planted.Under the balcony is a dark red door.On the heavy door leaf, there is a brass cat's eye.Next to it is a large floor-to-ceiling window that is as high as the door. The window is blocked by a layer of shutters, and the sofa and coffee table inside can be vaguely seen.

The car stopped in front of this house, Michael got off from above, followed by Gabriel and Belial.Gabriel held the bead in his hand, and the blue beam of light was pointing at the house.

"Looks like it's here," Beryl said.

When he walked to the door, he didn't even need to knock, and with a light push, the tightly closed door opened from the inside.

Gabriel walked in with Michael, followed by Beryl.Entering the door, the first thing you see is the living room, the sofa is placed on the east side, and the coffee table in front of the TV is covered with a carpet.Inside is the kitchen, with cabinets on three walls, and even the refrigerator is placed in the cabinets.It doesn't look like there are people living here, and there is no smoke at all.The corridor leading to the second floor is between the living room and the kitchen. There is a door under the stairs, which opens into a dark cupboard.

Michael was walking towards the second floor, when a voice came from above: "Who is it?" The voice had a hissing sound at the end.

When Baqin came down from the stairs, he saw Michael.He has dark gray eyes, short brown curly hair that naturally rolls behind the ears, a gloomy face with blood-red eyes, a hooked nose like an eagle, and snake letters emerging from dark purple lips Generally forked tongue.

"Bachin." Beryl called to stop him standing at the stairs.

Gabriel came up behind Michael and looked at him vigilantly, Baqin noticed the ball in his hand.Baqin said: "You came here to find me, do you want to get back that human soul?"

"Not only that, but we will also seal you." Gabriel said, "let you return to the place where you should be."

"Master Belial, I didn't expect you to have degenerated to help humans seal demons." Baqin said, "Although I can't beat you, I won't catch you without a fight. Let me see, when you come to the human world You who are sealed, how much strength can you have?"

After speaking, Baqin walked out through the window in the stairwell.Belial followed closely behind him, and they came to the courtyard.Standing by the vegetable garden, Bachin summoned his horse of color.Sitting on a colored horse, his legs turned into snake tails, and he looked at Belial while spitting out a letter.Belial summoned a ball of light with his right hand, and the moment it hit Baqin, it turned into lightning and disappeared.

"I'm not easy to deal with, Lord Beryl." Baqin said with a sneer.

"Just now was warming up." Beryl said lightly.

Belial summoned the flames of hell, and a group of red and purple flames appeared between Baqin and him.Baqin looked nervously at the flames. Hell flames are said to be able to incinerate all creatures with souls, and they cannot be extinguished no matter what they use.Beryl supported the flame with one hand, and looked lazily at Baqin.

"It's still too late for you to surrender." Gabriel walked to Beryl and said to Baqin.

"Come on anyway." Baqin said forcefully, and the colored horse under his feet neighed.

Beryl flung the flames of hell at Baqin unceremoniously, and Baqin narrowly escaped on his horse.The flame of hell flew into the air, turned a corner in mid-air, and flew towards Baqin again.Baqin galloped wildly on his horse, and the flames of hell chased after him fiercely.They ran in circles in the courtyard, with Beryl standing in the middle controlling the flames.Baqin ran with all his strength, but the flames of hell were still catching up with him little by little.Baqin felt a burst of despair, seeing that the flames of hell were about to burn him, the flames suddenly went out in the air.

Gabriel fell into Beryl's arms, and Beryl said angrily, "Why didn't you tell me when you couldn't hold on anymore!"

"Protect Michael." Gabriel said, looking at Michael by the door.

Beryl's eyes dimmed and he didn't speak.But Gabriel knew he would say yes because Belial had never refused his request.Gabriel made a contract with Belial and summoned him to the human world to become Belial's contractor.Every time Belial uses magic, it consumes Gabriel's energy.Once the energy is consumed too much, it will damage Gabriel's life force.

Beryl stopped attacking, at this moment Baqin sensed his weakness and rode towards Gabriel.Baqin held a pistol made of condensed magic power in his hand, with a sharp tip, and stabbed at Gabriel.

Belial and Michael rushed towards Gabriel at the same time.Belial threw himself on Gabriel, and Michael stood in front of the two of them. The sharp point of the gun was about to stab Michael, and a bloody red flame burned along the point of the gun.Baqin immediately threw the gun away, and the tip of the gun was burned to ashes in the air.

A person appeared out of thin air, wearing a black top, black pants, black leather boots, and a black cloak. The whole body was almost black, reflecting the whiteness of his skin, shining like a bright moon.His face was somehow frighteningly attractive, his two big dark eyes seemed to be bottomless, and they seemed to be filled with stars.Everyone present lost their expressions unknowingly, and Michael stared at him blankly, muttering something in his mouth.

Baqin, who had stopped in mid-air, descended to the ground at this time, got off his horse, saluted this man, and said respectfully, "See Your Majesty, Lord Lucifer. Why did you come down suddenly?"

Lucifer didn't answer, he walked up to Michael, touched his face, and said dissatisfiedly, "Why didn't you take good care of yourself when I was away?"

Michael didn't know how to answer this question, he just stared blankly at Lucifer, feeling extremely shocked and surprised by his appearance.

"It's you, the person in my dream." Michael called out.

Lucifer nodded in satisfaction, picked up the round bead Gabriel gave him in Michael's hand, and turned to Bachin again.The ball glowed with a scorching blue light in Lucifer's hand, and a beam of green light glowed in Baqin's heart, which was slowly connected to the blue beam.The two beams of light are entangled with each other, just like vines around the trunk, and the blue beam slowly wraps around the green light.The blue beam entered Baqin's body, Baqin's body gradually became transparent, his face became paler and paler, a green bead flew out from his heart, and flew to Lucifer hands.

Lucifer handed the two beads to Michael, and with a wave of his hand, Baqin disappeared.

"Thank you." Michael said gratefully.

After Gabriel appeared from Lucifer, he remained silent.Belial took his hand and comforted him silently.

The two finally met, and Gabriel understood very early on that he wanted to save the world instead of Michael, and that it was impossible for Lucifer and him to never meet.But he didn't expect it to shatter so quickly.He spent 20 years looking for Michael, and within two years, Lucifer showed up.He was not reconciled, but there was nothing he could do.

Lucifer said to Michael: "Take care of yourself, we will meet again."

He disappeared into the air, leaving Michael feeling lost.Gabriel took the two round beads given by Michael and put them together. After a while, the two round beads melted together and became one.The bead, which had doubled in size, emitted white light and slowly disappeared into the air.

"Where's the demon on the one-colored horse?" Michael asked.

"He was sent back by Lucifer to the Demon God Pillar that sealed him." Belial replied, "Lucifer can send anything to where he wants it to go."

Gabriel had been silent for a while, and Michael finally realized that something was wrong with him.But no matter how he asked, he didn't answer.Perhaps because the question Gabriel wanted to ask, the answer was too obvious, and he didn't have the courage to ask it.In fact, what he wants to ask is very simple: "Do you love me or Lucifer?" But this question is too strange.

Michael, who has no memory, will think he is crazy when he hears this question; Michael, who has memory, will tell him: "I like you between friends, and the person I really love is Lucifer."

How could Gabriel accept this? When he was in heaven, he had a different feeling for Michael; now that he is on earth, his feeling has not changed at all.He wants to save mankind instead of him, wants to protect him instead of Lucifer, and his mind has never changed.If a person has obsession, God will make things happen against his mind.The more Gabriel didn't want Lucifer to show up, the faster he showed up.

Belial didn't expose him, but he saw everything through.

Anyway, today's task is done.They took a taxi and went back to where they lived.By night, Gabriel was back to normal.Michael was delighted by this, and although he knew nothing of Gabriel's veiled but almost explicit thoughts, he cared deeply about his friend.

The moon is very round tonight and the stars are very bright.Gabriel was not in the mood to appreciate it, he was lying on the bed, extremely sad.Belial and Michael were both asleep, and he looked at the wall silently, feeling infinitely melancholy.
