Brianna was fine with Trevor staying with her, but she did tell him that they would stay together until the new devil king was chosen.Trevor was happy that he was going to start staying with Brianna; he had a huge smile across his lips.***************************The following morning, at Burnaman’s apartment.Burnaman was sitting down on a huge couch. He was wearing his robotic suit and helmet. He removed the helmet and threw it on the floor.Burnaman was a young man who looked like he was in his early 20s. He has bright blonde hair and grey eyes.He leaned forward on the couch. "Those criminals and crimes are all distractions. They are not the ones I want. I really just need to kill the other 18 devil candidates, right?" He said it with his eyes closed. Burnaman has been busy playing hero and saving the city from multiple criminals when truly all he wants is to kill the other 18 devil candidates and become the new devil king."Yes, that is the most comprehensive solution," a deep
**********************Later in the afternoonAt Brianna’s apartment.Trevor and Brianna were both sitting down on her couch in the large room, while both their demons were hovering at the back of the couch. They were all focused on the large flat-screen television that was on the wall in front of them. They wanted to watch the news broadcast that Burnaman would give."I hope Burnaman won’t say something crazy this time," Mordecai said in a deep tone."Yeah, me too," Trevor muttered.A moment later."We will now play the video that was sent to us by Burnaman," A lady presenter with brunette hair said on Fox TV."Good afternoon, I am Burnaman, or rather, I am the hero wearing the Burnaman suit to my 18 challengers, I realized now that we are on the same side, I considered you guys enemies before, but in many ways we are kindred spirits," Burnaman statement, He was wearing his full body suit and sitting down on a blue background on the television."Huh? What?" Trevor said with his mouth
Brianna or Mordecai."Alright, thanks," he said with a smile as he turned around and sat properly.************************Later in the afternoon,I was done with all my classes for the day and was heading out to go meet with Brianna when I remembered that I had made plans to show Chris around the school. I quickly took out my cell phone and called Brianna. I told her to go home without me and that I would meet her there. After that, I dialed Chris’s number and told him to meet me outside the school; after that, I ended the call. Chris and I had exchanged numbers earlier in economics class. The guy seems interesting, and I wanted to get to know him. It was weird, but there is something about him.I waited for a few minutes outside the school entrance before seeing Chris walk in my direction. He arrived at the spot where I was standing and shook my hand."I am glad you took time out of your busy schedule to show me around the school," he said with a smirk."Nah, it’s not a big deal; y
"OK, tell me the name of the hospital; let me come and meet you there," she said."No, don’t worry; there is no need for you to come here; I will handle everything on my own," I replied."Okay, if you say so," she muttered."Also, tell Mordecai not to come looking for me," I said. I can’t let anybody see Mordecai close to me in public at all."I will; just make sure you get home safe," she replied."I will see you later," I said as I ended the call.I leaned forward on the bench and rubbed my hands on my head. I can’t believe something like this happened to me. I pray nothing bad happens to the boy.About an hour later, a doctor walked up to me and told me that the boy had regained consciousness and that he was out of danger. After that, I told the doctor to take me over to the ward.I arrived inside the ward, the boy was laying down on a bed in the middle of the room. I ambled over to a chair at the side of the bed and sat down. The boy’s head was bandaged, and his arms were also cov
"Yes, I became a devil's candidate about two months ago," he answered. He started narrating to me about how he wanted to commit suicide because his parents passed away. He was the only child and didn’t have anywhere else to go after his parents died. His distant uncle took him in and began to torment his life; that is when he decided to end his life because he knew he would never be happy again. Jonathan is just 13 years old. His demon Athos saved him from killing himself and made him a Devil King candidate."That’s sad; I am sorry you had to go through so much pain," I said after listening to his story. Jonathan and I were in similar situations before we became devil candidates; does this mean that all the devil candidates were once suicidal before they were chosen? If so, what would make someone like Brianna want to commit suicide? I couldn’t help but wonder."Thanks, but my life is somewhat fine now. I now control my uncle with a red arrow; he doesn’t beat me anymore, and he does m
*************************The following day,It was about 9 a.m., the sky was bright, and the weather was a bit cold. I was walking through the hallway of the science department; I was heading over to my first class for the day, which was economics.I arrived inside the lecture hall. I went over to my seat and sat down. Normally the class starts at 9:20 am, but I like coming early to the class. A couple of people were already seated in their various seats. I noticed that Chris Tanner has not yet arrived; I guess he might not have this class today. Besides, rich dudes like that usually don’t come to class on time.A few minutes later, I saw Chris enter the hall. He walked over to his seat, which was next to mine, and sat down. We both exchanged pleasantries.Suddenly a demon flew into the hall. My eyes opened wide. I was shocked and confused at the same time. What could a demon be doing in this lecture hall? Is there also a devil candidate in this class? As I was trying to get my thoug
"So, tell us, where is your demon at the moment?" Brianna asked, raising a curious eyebrow as she gazed at Jonathan."He is on his way here; I told him to let me get here first; I can’t let anyone see him next to me outside," Jonathan answered."Okay, I understand," Brianna muttered. A few moments later, Jonathan’s demon flew into the room from above. I knew demons could pass through objects, but Mordecai and Revel rarely do it."Good, I am in the right apartment," the demon said in a deep tone. He flew over to where Jonathan was sitting and hovered behind him."Welcome, Athos; it’s nice to see you," Revel said as he folded both his hands together."I can’t say the same for you; besides, I came here because of Jonathan," Athos replied with a rude tone."Oh, come on, don’t be like that," Revel complained."Calm down, Revel; let’s not argue; we all came together for our candidates' sake; let’s all get to know each other and our plans," Mordecai said in a rumbling tone, and the whole roo
"I knew you liked that kid, but some Devil candidates can do whatever it takes to become the devil king, take Burnaman as an example. So, Trevor, don’t think about it too much; you and Brianna need to stand by each other and protect one another; I believe everything is going to be fine," he added."Yeah, I hope so too. I will make sure to protect Brianna; I can’t let anything happen to her," I replied as I stood up from the couch.My cell phone started ringing loudly. I picked it up from the center table and looked at the caller, it was Chris that was calling me. Oh my, I almost forgot I gave him my number. What does he want to talk about? I didn’t want to answer the phone, but if I ignored him, it would be suspicious; I don’t want him to realize that I am avoiding him. I answered the call."Hey, Trevor, what’s up?" Chris said with a cheerful tone."I’m good," I replied."I haven’t seen you in economics class for a few days now, ever since you rushed out of the class the day I last sa
