All Chapters of LUCIFER'S BANE: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The next thing the angels saw were two large angels coming at each other with full force. The impact of their collision created a large bang that shook the pillars of the arena making the angels gasp in shock and fear. Michael intended to make the first move by swinging at Lucifer's face but Lucifer was already ahead of him. He blocked his arm and gave him an uppercut, sending Michael flying to the other side of the arena. Some angels winced at the impact while Gadreel and Adriel smiled subtly. There was no way Michael can beat Lucifer, he was going to die at the end of the day.Michael stood up immediately much to everyone's surprise. He had collected a lot of blows and hits from Lucifer before so he was used to it. He didn't really have a plan other than to try to hit Lucifer as hard as possible to weaken him, but even that seemed impossible because Lucifer had never shown weakness. He was so engrossed in his thoughts, he didn't notice that Lucifer was running towards him.

The cries of war filled Lucifer's ears immediately. A horde of angels came after his subjects, their swords and spears clashing with one another's. The archers from atop the arena did not hesitate to shoot their arrows at unexpected opponents and soon after golden dust began to fill the air. Lucifer smiled broadly. He knew his angels had more advantage over the warriors of heaven, he had no fear. Instead of joining in the fight, he simply went to sit beside Michael's body which had not moved from its place. Surprisingly, he was still conscious but his hand was slowly withering away. Any angel that attempted to come at Lucifer did not even make it pass the center of the arena as Lucifer's allies struck them down with haste.The cherub pretended as though the sounds of the angel's cry was but a lullaby and focused his attention on Michael, who was glaring with all his might. Lucifer scoffed and raised an eyebrow in amusement, the ability for Michael to endure much pain was his

As Nahamani flew back down to the war zone, the blurry figures of angels began to clear up. Many of them had been slain and the few that remained were either protecting Michael or hiding in fear. The injured yet brave ones still threw themselves at the betrayers any chance they got. The buildings were in no better shape. The arena had been completely destroyed and the chaos had spread to the other beautiful parts of heaven. It turned out that while Nahamani conversed with the most high, Lucifer had instructed his angels to desecrate God's temples because none stood tall as before. Everything was in a mess and all hope looked lost but Nahamani no longer harbored the fear she had earlier. With new found determination, she flew with haste towards Beth who laid on the floor severely injured.  A large chunk of her hair had been pulled out from its roots and her body was filled with bruises, Adriel had taken her time to torture her. The bright light that outlined her tall frame had g

Anger, determination or pain. Michael had no idea which one drove him to lunge after Lucifer like that, all he knew was he did and it felt good. He was happy that he could finally defend heaven like he was supposed to, he was happy that God had not forgotten them and Lucifer could finally pay for his evil against them and the most high. He remembered the look on Lucifer's face throughout the entire battle. Yes he had already become cruel before then, but the moment he took up the sword he became a monster. There was no redemption for him not because God couldn't give it to him, he simply did not want it.A cloud of smoke blocked his view for a minute as he stayed on the air, but when it cleared up a large hand greeted his face. Michael's head jerked back and he gnashed his teeth in pain. When he faced his front again, Lucifer growled and came after him. They used their hands to attack themselves on the air, they either scratched or hit one another repeatedly. It didn't help t

AFTER A MILLION YEARS…"I most certainly do not need to give long speeches today since you already know what must be done. This competition will lead to the strengthening of our ranks so it should be taken seriously. You know the rules as well, no use of any weapons other than the ones meant for this tournament or else you will be eliminated and also face severe punishment. No form of cheating is allowed whatsoever, I personally would drag you out of the arena myself and finally, under no circumstance will you raise your holy hands to kill another. I believe you already no the repercussions of that act"."YES MASTER!"Beth gave a stiff nod and sighed. She was thoroughly exhausted. She was put in charge of the whole process that led to the tournament since she was a high ranking warrior in heaven and even though the task was honorable, she would be lying if she said she didn't wish to have a break once in a while. Beth stared at the competitors before her,
