My hands were steady, but my mind was an absolute battlefield. Vesper. I pulled a silver lighter from my pocket, automatically rolling a cigarette between my fingers before bringing the flame to the tip. The acrid, burning smoke hit my lungs, harsh and heavy.

I looked up at the two brothers standing together, their bond seemingly unbreakable. I got out of bed and solemnly asked, "Leon, can you tell me a way where I can die for sure, then?

One hand shot out and wrapped around Lilith's throat viciously. "I may be the sloth Lilith",he said darkly, glaring at her with hate. "But I am still one of the seven deadly sins. One of the seven devils. And I will not hesitate to rip your fake body apart if you cross your limits" Lilith spat into his face and sneered at him. "Do your worst sloth",she whispered snarkily. Belphegor pressed down on Lilith's throat and crushed it between his claws. Lilith's body disintegrated into black dust, only to reform again behind him.

"His body was completely limp, and every bone in him was broken. He died such a horrible death. Who was there to save him?" "Adam has never suffered since he was little," she continued.
