Chapter 42 : meeting with an old friend

  Diablo falls on ground .

  A few seconds passed and sakris was waiting and wondering if he would wake up but he didn't so Sakris starts laughing .

  " i was scared for a second , i could tell he was low on mana but when he survived that with nearly zero mana , even I was shocked . "

  Suddenly the ground started shacking .

  And diablo moved his finger.

  He stood up and his hairs were on fire but were not burning and his skin was slowly getting burned .

  he opened his eyes and tears started coming out of his fire red eyes.

  Diablo in low voice" it hurts , using agni's mana is tearing my body apart. "

  And he fell on the ground and he closed his eyes .

  " it's okay if I give up , who even cares ? Bakis and others will handle it "

  And he opened his eyes and was standing near a river .

  diablo saw a girl sitting at shore of river .

  Diablo goes near the girl and suddenly an invisible wall stops him .

  The girl tilts her head towards him.

  " Lani ? "

  And she stood up and got near the wall.

  Lani " yeah it's me "

  " where the fuck am I ? Is it sakris's power ?" Said diablo.

  Lani " you are at the edge of living and I am at the edge of dead "

  " I am sorry for everything " apologized diablo.

  Lani " you know , I thought you were dead and even cried when you died and when I died ,I couldn't find you with the dead and the dead people have a weird power , they can see any soul at any time , so I saw you living with bakis "

  Diablo " I am sorry , I , I , I didn't know what was happening here "

  Lani " I am not mad at you neither am I blaming you "

  Diablo " I "

  Lani " I know where you buried me and all the talks you did with me "

  Diablo's eyes were filled with tears .

  Lani sits by the wall " I also loved the time we all spent together , and I do remember when both you and I had same face " and she chuckles.

  Lani " you know when my hands were cut , I saw myself with you but when my legs were cut I saw myself alone ."

  Diablo " I am sorry , I couldn't keep my promise to make a world where all of us can live peacefully but this time I will keep my promise "

  Lani " diablo , break our promise "

  Diablo " what are you saying ? I WILL kill aether , he killed you , he mistreated everyone "

  Lani " I saw all your time with bakis , I know your deepest desire, you wanted to live together with all the people , since I am dead you can't achieve it so try to be as close to your desire as you can "

  " I am sorry but I will not break our promise , I will kill him " said diablo angrily.

  Lani " well then kill him fast so I can beat the shit out of him here "

  Diablo "is it the last time we will meet ?"

  Lani " I don't know , but I think so "

  Suddenly both of them heard bakis screaming

  " DIABLO , REMEMBER DYING IS GAY"

  Sora's voice " you idiot what are you saying ?"

  Jasu " yeah , now you will get cancelled for saying that "

  Sora shouting " that's what you worried about ?"

  Lani started laughing , seeing her laugh diablo smiled.

  Lani " man , how long ago was when I saw this stupidity, it was too gloomy earlier , I wish I was alive "

  And she looks at diablo and diablo was about to cry.

  Lani " ow , you look like a puppy "

  " I can't cry ,I can't leave her while I cry " was thinking diablo .

  Diablo " you look beautiful"

  Lani blushes " huh , what ? wait , why would you say that now "

  Diablo " keep watching on us please "

  Lani blushing " can I ask you something ?"

  Diablo " ask "

  Lani" before you go , would you mind spending a few moments with me in other places "

  Diablo confused " how can we go to other place ?"

  " leave it to me " said Lani with smile

  Diablo " ok "

  Lani " close your eyes and start walking beside the invisible wall and don't open your eyes , otherwise we can't go "

  Diablo " ok "

  And he did it .

  Lani" open your eyes "

  And diablo opened his eyes and saw aether's world (the first one which is now destroyed) .

  Lani" this is before we both met so would you mind showing me this place like it is my first time here "

  Diablo " you sure are weird "

  And both of them started walking , diablo tries to grab her hand and see if wall is still there and it was still there .

  Suddenly a shopkeeper shouts " oh it's you diablo "

  And he hit diablo in the stomach .

  Diablo hits back on his stomach " what's the big idea ?"

  And he looks at the shopkeeper's face and notices he's one of the people who got killed by Ellen .

  Shopkeeper " long time no see man , what were you doing ?"

  Diablo " nothing much "

  The shopkeeper looks at Lani and smiles " is she your slave ?"

  Diablo " what the fuck? Weren't you supposed to ask if she was my girlfriend?"

  Shopkeeper while smiling " you can't get one "

  Diablo " that hurts "

  Shopkeeper slaps on his back " don't keep the lady waiting "

  And diablo left smiling .

  Diablo starts walking with Lani .

  Lani " why are you making that angry expression "

  Diablo " oh sorry , I just thought about Ellen "

  Lani " these all people are also dead but they don't know it , so for them they are still alive and living normally , and the memory of their living relatives is erased for now , when their relative die and come here they will get those memory again "

  Diablo " I am happy that they can at least enjoy after they are dead "

  Suddenly two girls grabbed diablo and another girl came and gave him glass in each hand and another girl poured beer in it .

  Diablo blushing " I am sorry but I am underage , wait , am I ?"

  Bartender " it's not for you , start serving those people "

  Diablo remembered one time he helped a bar because they were short on staff then they started acting as friends to him .

  Diablo goes to the bartender and puts the beer on desk and grabs her collar .

  Diablo" I am a little busy so I guess you will understand "

  Bartender shouts " what ? You are going to assault me in front of all these man "

  And all the people in the bar stood up and looked at diablo .

  Diablo shouts " what ? You want me to assault you in front of all of them ? I didn't know you were like that "

  Everyone sat down .

  Bartender was staring at diablo and diablo was grining .

  Lani " you sure have become an evil bastard "

  Diablo " what did I do ? I just defended myself "

  Bartender looks at both of them .

  Bartender "is she your slave ?"

  Diablo " no "

  Bartender "ok , come tomorrow, enjoy your time ."

  Diablo left the bar while showing middle finger .

  Lani" what the fuck did you do that your image is this poor that everyone's first thought of me is your slave "

  Diablo confused " I don't remember doing anything "

  And they kept on walking and talked , laughed and sat at a place to eat .

  Diablo " it feels like a date "

  Lani got embarrassed and tried punching him but the wall stopped .

  Diablo laughing " I didn't know you were into hitting , I remember you being lazy , oh wait you used to hit me earlier "

  Lani " I want to punch your face so hard "

  Diablo " oh speaking of lazy , I found a guy like you , complete lazy but he has to work because of me and bakis , he is my master "

  Lani " I know "

  Diablo " then do you know bakis proposed to Ava in the worst way possible "

  Lani " not exactly the worst "

  Diablo " he could have done better "

  Lani " I also know you puked on a girl when she tried to kiss you "

  Diablo embarrassed" shut up "

  And Lani started laughing and he saw the whole gang laughing behind her including synthia and aether.

  Diablo " why couldn't my journey be a simple journey where everyone I met became my friend."

  Lani " lah and synthia are here too "

  Diablo cuffing " what ? , Where are they ?"

  Lani " lah said that you should take better care of Emilia from now on "

  Diablo " I want to apologize to him "

  Lani " he know both your and Erika's past and forgave you since he could sympathize with you , that's the reason he said from now on "

  Diablo "I will apologize to him after my death "

  Lani " and synthia said if she met you now it will be too problematic for her and you "

  Diablo " hm "

  Lani smiling" be happy you got to meet me "

  Diablo " thank you for this honor my lady "

  Lani smiling " hm , now go , be the hero "

  Diablo chuckles " hero ? That doesn't suit me "

  Lani " actually yeah ,there is no way you are hero "

  Diablo" why did it hurt hearing you say it "

  Lani " you are not the hero , you are the guide "

  Diablo" what ?"

  Lani "you are the guide who guides the people around you to be the best version of them and a guide to all the worlds to defy what's wrong even when odds are against you "

  Diablo laughs " what the fuck ? you see me way too high , I only fought organisation because they came to fight me first and about the better version of people around me then that role suits Sora better than me "

  Lani shows the middle finger " I can't think more , so be happy with guide role "

  Diablo " than as your guide I tell you to stop being so lazy "

  Lani " sorry can't do "

  Suddenly diablo's hand vanished.

  Lani " looks like you are coming back to life "

  Diablo" then I guess it's goodbye "

  Lani " yeah , goodbye "

  diablo " wanna see a magic trick ?"

  Lani " show "

  And diablo jumped and the moment his legs hit ground he turned to dust and flew away.

  Lani sits " I am waiting for you , so try to die fast "

  The maid " I wanted to meet him "

  Lani " next time "

  Diablo opens his eyes and saw Sora's face trying to kiss diablo .

  Diablo screams " what the fuck ?

  " and he slaps Sora left and right and left and right.

  Diablo " get the fuck away "

  Sora punches diablo " asshole , I don't go around kissing males , I was trying to give you cpr "

  Diablo" thank god , I woke up before disaster "

  And diablo rolls his sleeves

  " and yeah bakis , dying IS gay so don't you dare die too "

  Diablo " sakris , thanks for waiting for me"

  Sakris " I was not waiting , I was healing my underling which are not dead "

  And Ellen , Emily , bok were walking towards them .

  Bakis " diablo, you fight sakris , we will handle these "

  Diablo "it's gonna hurt "

  And his hairs started burning again and his eyes were again fire red and his skin was still burning but his clothes were fine .

  Diablo" let's settle this sakris , I have to kill aether too"

  And he suddenly vanished and hit sakris from left then from right then punched him on his nose.

  Sakris " he is very fast but his punches are way weaker from earlier , looks like that whole time he was using strength of his friend (Sora ) "

  And diablo kept hitting him .

  Suddenly a weird force pushed diablo away .

  Diablo " how many abilities can this guy use ?"

  Bakis " he is a magician ,that's his magnetic power "

  And suddenly diablo got pulled towards sakris and sakris hit him .

  Diablo " I need to do something "

  And suddenly his fire form (name for his body using agni's mana ) vanished

  and he hit sakris using sora's strength and just when sakris's punch was about to hit him his fire form appeared and he moved away and dodged the punch .

  Diablo in sky " this way I can have both speed and strength "
