SDS2 21: MISSION II: THE GLUTTONOUS FIGHTER
- Ok Taecyeon's POV -
"THIS IS SO FUCKING good," I said in delight as I continue to devour the meal in front of me. But as I was eating in peace, someone aggressively knocked on the door, making me angrily stop eating.
"What is it?!" I said with a furious voice. The door opened, and Tayo – my right-hand ghoul – came inside with a panicked expression.
"Close the fucking door you useless piece of shit," I ordered, and he immediately obliged.
"What the fuck do you want? You know I don't want to be disturbed when I'm in a feast." I said as I continued eating.
"I know, but this matter is something that you should really be concerned about boss." Tayo seriously stated, but I ignored him and continued eating, blood dripping on the side of my mouth like I was a child sloppily eating ice-cream. Tayo fidgets and took a step closer, "Boss, I think you really have to listen to what I have to say."
"Then tell me straight up or I'll eat you!" I screamed as I faced him, making Tayo flinch.
"It's about Crocell boss," he quickly answered, and that finally made me stop eating. Tayo nervously looked at me and continued, "She's dead."
"What?!" I angrily shouted, making Tayo flinch again.
"Nagi called and told me that he found Crocell inside her apartment, dead and soulless," Tayo explained.
"Do you think it's them?" I asked, now serious with the conversation.
"We're not sure, but I told the others to stay on guard to be cautious," Tayo stated.
"Good. And tell the others to prepare for the frat war as well. What happened to Crocell shouldn't be a hindrance to us," I commanded.
"Yes, boss." Tayo bowed and left me inside my feeding room.
"If Crocell is dead, then I'm next. Fuck! I just took this body just recently as well!" I said to myself as I looked at the dead bodies on the floor, "I just lost my appetite," I said as I went outside my feeding room.
Oh yeah, I'm Adramelech, but in this realm, I am Ok Taecyeon, leader of the frat Laimargia.
Being in a frat is very convenient especially after frat wars because I can feed on the dead bodies of the frat we defeated. Well, what do you expect from a glutton like me right?
Like any other Sinner, half of my frat members are ghouls, and the other half are humans. Why humans? So that people will not notice, and so that I can eat them when we don't have a frat war. You might think that after knowing Crocell is dead I'll be scared as hell. Well, you're fucking wrong. It makes me even more excited than before.
Whoever they are, I'll kill them and eat them as gruesome as I can.
- THIRD PERSON'S POV -
"What?!" shouted the 6 brothers in unison when they heard what Taeil - their master planner - had said to them regarding their next mission.
"Frat war? We're going to join a frat war?" Minhyuk asked with a worried tone in his voice.
"Can we kill this guy a little more discretely?" Hyunseung suggested, but Taeil looked back at the computer in front of him and answered, "Sorry, but this is the only way we can come any closer to Sinner two." Taeil explained.
"Okay, but how are we going to join the frat war? We're not even a frat," Jiyong asked.
"Well, we are already a group. And according to my resources, any frat can join," Taeil assured his brothers, which actually doesn't make things any better.
"So what? Are we just gonna barge in and declare war?" Suho asked while scratching the back of his head in confusion.
"According to my research, the frat war only needs 4 members or more. The leader and the backup." Taeil stated. When the brothers were now fully listening to him, he continued, "So for the leader, it will be Minhyuk, because he needs to absorb his soul. We only need 3 more excluding me, Hyunseung and Jackson."
"Then the only one left is me, Jiyong and Sunggyu?" Suho asked, and Taeil smiled and nodded, "Exactly."
"Okay, now that we're on the frat war, how will we know that the frat we're up against is the one with the Sinner in it?" Minhyuk asked next.
"Don't worry about it. The frat war is as organized as it can be. I applied our group to fight against the frat with Sinner 2 in it." Taeil stated.
"And how sure are you that it's his frat? Huh, smart guy?" Jiyong taunted.
"The name of the frat is Laimargia," Taeil said with a smart look on his face.
"Laimargia?" Sunggyu asked, and everyone looked at each other, hoping to get an answer from what Taeil just said.
"It means glutton in Greek," Jackson quickly answered for them, and Taeil snapped his fingers, glad someone knew what it meant.
"Wow Taeil, I'm impressed. You're getting good at this kind of stuff." Suho commented as he patted Taeil's back, making Taeil smile proudly.
"Sorry to intrude my Princes' but may we ask for the sinner's soul?" Yoochun asked as he went towards Hyunseung and the others.
"Yes, after all, we haven't fed on any human soul since we got here," Junsu added.
"And you know what happens once we stop feeding." Jaejoong reminded them.
"We know," Jiyong said with a worried tone. Well, who wouldn't get worried? His fathers' soul is right in front of them while his father is soulless in hell, and the chance of him dying is much greater.
Jiyong looked at Hyunseung and nodded his head as a signal. Hyunseung went to the three demonic men and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath and opened his eyes again, and Hyunseung transformed into his demonic self, but without the horns and tail. He then opened his mouth; the same goes to the Souls of Lucifer. Black smoke came out of Hyunseung's mouth and it traveled to the SOL's mouth. It went on for a couple of seconds until Hyunseung went back to normal, and the SOLs instantly looked stronger.
"Thank you, my Prince." The three demonic men stated, and Hyunseung just smiled and nodded his head as an answer.
"So how many days will my dad become weak again?" Jiyong asked, filled with concern.
"A week, because this soul is much stronger compared to any human soul," Yoochun answered.
"Well, that's good to know." Sunggyu said, then he turned to Taeil and asked, "So when is the frat war?"
Taeil looked at his brothers and answered with a mischievous grin, "Tonight."
*****
Taecyeon and Tayo went outside of their car, people immediately screaming to show their support as soon as they saw him.
"Kill that fresh meat!"
"Fuck them up Taecyeon!"
Taecyeon just ignored the crowd and went inside the arena with an expressionless face. While he was walking, he glanced at Tayo and asked, "Who did you bring?"
"I only brought 3 strong humans," Tayo said as he opened the door for Taecyeon.
"Good, I don't want to waste my ghouls on a low-class frat," Taecyeon said as he entered the back area of the arena. Tayo closed the door and Taecyeon sat on the couch. Then Tayo opened the fridge and took a bottle filled with blood and offered it to his boss. Taecyeon took the bottle and drank it like it was just an ordinary water bottle.
"Who are the fresh meats anyway?" Taecyeon asked as he placed the empty bottle on the table in front of him.
"A frat group called Checkmate," Tayo answered as he stood in front of him.
"Checkmate? Who the fuck are they?" Taecyeon asked, irritated that he will be fighting someone who he has never heard of.
"They're a frat group in Korea who defeats the toughest fraternities in Asia, so they're here to defeat you," Tayo said as he waited for Taecyeon to answer.
"As if they can defeat me." Taecyeon said with confidence, "Low life like them can't defeat me."
Tayo looked at Taecyeon worriedly, unsure if his boss should be too confident because Tayo definitely had a bad feeling about this.
*****
"Hey Minhyuk, you ready for this?" Sunggyu asked before patting Minhyuk's back.
Minhyuk, who was getting ready for the frat war with Sinner 2, didn't look back at their leader as he answered, "I think I am. By the way, is Kharon already on standby?"
"He is," Suho answered, and Minhyuk sighed heavily. Suho noticed Minhyuk's distress. He looked at his brother and assured him, "Don't worry dude, whatever happens there, Kharon will help us."
"But this is different from what Hyunseung and Jackson did," Minhyuk reminded them, and Jiyong agreed and added, "Yup, we'll be facing a lot of civilians. Even the people we'll be defeating are humans. If we end up hurting them, shit will go down."
Suho glared at Jiyong, mad that he wasn't helping with helping ease Minhyuk's worry.
"Just concentrate on the Sinner. We'll handle the rest," Suho stated instead, and Sunggyu draped his arm on Minhyuk and added, "Stick to the plan and you'll be fine."
"Ladies and Gentleman, are you ready for the war!" the MC shouted from outside their waiting room.
"Hey, it's starting. Let's go," Suho instructed. Minhyuk stood up and faced his brothers, then he placed his hands in front of him, and the 3 brothers looked at each other. Suho smiled and placed his hands over Minhyuk. Sunggyu just shrugged and did the same, and Jiyong just sighed and did what his brothers were doing.
"For Dad."Minhyuk said as he looked at Jiyong, and Jiyong smiled and repeated, "For Dad," and then they pulled away from each other. Even though they're demons, they're still humans. They are still emotionally attached to their parents.
"...are you ready for the war!" the MC shouted and the crowd shouted back.
"Now for our participants in tonight's frat war," the MC started, and the crowd screamed even louder, "The group that came all the way to Korea, a group that challenges the biggest and baddest fraternities in all Asia. Korea's pride... CHECKMATE!"
As soon as the MC finished his intro for the Demons, the four sons walked towards the arena. The people booed and started saying shit like, "Just go back to your country," or "You won't last a minute kids", and even, "Taecyeon will eat you up". A rookie would have been worried by now, but the Demons entered the arena with an expressionless face.
"Now for the next group." The MC stated and everyone was already screaming and cheering.
"The undefeated group since they entered the frat war. A group that is heartless and fearless, a group that brings havoc to its path! Laimargia!!" the MC finished, and Taecyeon and his boys went to the arena, and people just kept on cheering and screaming.
The two frats went face to face and started glaring at each other. Jiyong even smirked. He was more excited than afraid.
"Okay, okay. Before things get heated as it is," the MC said as he went between the two groups.
"The rules: anything goes. Any weapons are allowed except for bombs. And the war will only stop if all of the members are wounded or dead." The MC looked at the two frats and neither of them flinched.
"So... Are you ready!?" the MC screamed and so did the crowd.
Now the battle begins. The battle between the Princes' of Hell and a Sinner with his human pawns. Honestly, if you asked me, the Demons had the upper hand, but then again, the Demons had to be cautious. They didn't want to go overboard and accidentally kill the other humans.
"LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!" the MC shouted, and a siren sound was heard, a signal that the battle had finally started.
"Game time," Minhyuk stated as he looked at Taecyeon and his frat. The enemy was taunting them with their guns and knives, but the demons weren't fazed. Sunggyu looked at his brothers and nodded his head, signaling them to make their first move.
Minhyuk smirked and summoned his weapon, everyone else doing the same. The crowd and even Taecyeon and his group looked at them with shock and confusion.
"Checkmate just made this war a magic show everyone. They magically popped out deadly weapons!" The MC commentated.
Taecyeon didn't want to be fazed, so he clenched his fist and angrily looked at the Demons, "Let's go!" he commanded, and he and his frat ran over them.
"Suho, Jiyong, do whatever you can to knock down the humans in the left. I'll handle the one on the right." Sunggyu instructed.
"Got it." Jiyong and Suho answered, and they dashed towards the two humans that Sunggyu instructed them to attack. The two Demons easily tackled the humans as they collapsed on the floor and hit their heads using the handle of their weapons. Taecyeon was so shocked by what happened. Everything happened so fast like a wind passed beside him and two of his members were already down.
"Minhyuk, you handle the dazed Sinner!" Sunggyu shouted as he looked at Minhyuk while running towards his opponent.
"Roger that!" Minhyuk shouted back.
Sunggyu went to the last human and Minhyuk went towards the Sinner.
"I can't believe it, folks. 2 of Taecyeon's members are already down and bleeding." The MC said, and the crowd was just as shocked as Taecyeon was.
"Who the fuck are these people?!" Taecyeon cursed. He miserably dodged a swing from Minhyuk's sword, causing him to stumble.
"Your worst nightmare," Minhyuk answered for him as he cornered the Sinner to the wall. Then he smirked and showed him his red eyes.
Taecyeon's eyes widened from shock. Sunggyu, Suho, and Jiyong already neutralized their enemies, so they went to Minhyuk and did the same thing. They showed them their red eyes and Taecyeon was already sweating, hard.
"I can't believe it. The undefeated frat will be defeated by the newbies!" the MC stated.
"H-how did you find me?" Taecyeon asked as he chocked on his saliva.
"That doesn't matter now sinner. Your overconfidence is making me feel like you should be the sinner of pride instead. As the prince of gluttony, I am very disappointed in you. Your attitude is in need of a punishment!" Minhyuk raised his weapon and was about to hit Taecyeon, but Taecyeon swung his own weapon first. The Demons backed away, making a space for Taecyeon to escape on.
"The leader of Laimargia swung his weapon and escaped Checkmate." The MC narrated again.
"Where the fuck is Tayo?!" Taecyeon shouted as he ran for his life.
"Are you referring to your ghoul?" Jiyong said as he was already in front of the Sinner.
"Wow, did you see that folks? Did he run faster than Taecyeon or did he just teleport himself?" the MC announced and the crowd was once again speechless.
"We just asked our guardian to handle him," Suho stated. Then he looked at where Kharon was located. Kharon lifted his hands and Taecyeon's eyes widen from surprise. Kharon was holding the head of his ghoul Tayo, and then he set the head on fire like it was nothing.
"Running is over. It's time for you to die." Minhyuk said as he raised his weapon again.
"If you kill me now, the other Sinners will be aware of our death and they will be on guard. But if you let me live I can help you attack from the shadows. Please, I will give my service to you...m-my prince," Taecyeon begged to the princes who are standing in front of him.
Sunggyu looked at Suho and Suho looked at Jiyong and of course, Jiyong looked at his brother Minhyuk. Minhyuk looked at them and simply smiled, then the rest nodded. The Demons then looked at the Sinner with a serious expression.
"Sorry, but we don't need your help," Suho stated.
"And who cares if the other Sinners will be prepared. Our plans and abilities will not falter. That we are sure of," Jiyong said with a prideful tone.
"No, say hello to your friend in the abyss for us." Sunggyu finished, and without any warning, Minhyuk slashed the Sinner across his chest.
Taecyeon screamed as he choked on his own blood. Then Minhyuk stabbed the Sinner in his heart as blood started dripping from his body. As Minhyuk pulled his sword out of the Sinners body, the arena was quiet, and Kharon took the opportunity to stop time while everyone was distracted.
"You know what to do Minhyuk."
Minhyuk nodded his head and went to the Sinner's body. Like Hyunseung, he opened Taecyeon's mouth, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and opened his eyes again, revealing his blood red eyes.
"I, the Prince of Glutton, the second son of the realms of hell, am commanding the soul of this key keeper to be transferred to me in the name of Beelzebub." As he finished the chant, a dark smoke came out from the sinner's mouth and traveled to his own mouth. Once the soul was transferred to him, Minhyuk took a deep breath and opened his eyes.
The 3 Princes' gathered in front of Minhyuk, and as Minhyuk opened his eyes, Kharon made time move again.
"I can't believe it, Laimargia's leader is dead! The undefeated frat is now defeated!!" the MC stated, and the people now cheered and screamed at last.
"Our new champions!! CHECKMATE!!"
Minhyuk looked at his brothers and they saw the transformation itself. Minhyuk's eyes became bloodier as if actual blood will drip from his eyes. And his aura became a lot more powerful that if the crowd becomes silent, people could actually hear his aura breathing.
Sunggyu looked at his 2 brothers and smiled and nodded his head. They are 2 steps closer in defeating the King.
"Hey Sunggyu, after this can we eat? I am really starving." Minhyuk said as he rubbed his stomach.
The three brothers laughed.
"Don't worry Minhyuk, I'll treat you to an all-you-can-eat buffet and you can eat anything you want," Sunggyu said as the man hugged his brother, so did Suho and Jiyong.
The MC went towards them, and luckily Minhyuk was back to normal. But not the HUMAN normal, but the DEMON disguising as a HUMAN normal because right not, that is what Minhyuk is (And also Hyunseung). They are not half-humans and half-demons anymore. They're already full-blown DEMONS of hell.
The MC gave Sunggyu the trophy and everyone cheered. After the quick ceremony, the Princes went out of the ring as the people who booed them earlier were now cheering for them. Kharon waited at the exit of the arena, and once he saw the Princes, he went towards them. Without saying a word, Kharon teleported to Tamo's office. The sons looked at each other and followed their guardian.
AT THE RAVENS' HEADQUARTERS
"If that trophy is not an indication that you won, then I don't know shit anymore," Hyunseung said as he went towards his brothers and mentor. He then hugged his best friend and looked at him.
"Damn Minhyuk, I never realized that you're that handsome," Hyunseung stated, making Minhyuk chuckle.
"If killing the Sinners will make me look like that, I might as well go directly to the seventh Sinner," Jiyong said as he sat beside Jackson, tired from the fight a few minutes ago.
"You could if you want to die," Jackson said with a serious expression, and the Demon brothers laughed.
"Oh Jaejoong, do you need the soul?" Minhyuk asked as he looked at the three demonic men.
"Yes, it would be better so that even if we delayed the next mission, Lucifer will have the strength to get through another week. He will be informed that you succeeded in killing two of the Sinners too," Jaejoong said, and Minhyuk nodded his head.
"Taeil, you can tell them the next plan while I transfer the Sinners soul to the Souls of Lucifer," Minhyuk instructed, and Taeil nodded as an answer. The remaining Princes went towards to Taeil to listen to the next plan.
"So what's next?" Suho asked, eager that it's his turn to kill a Sinner now.
"We need to wait for Kai and Tamo first," Taeil stated while typing something on Tamo's computer.
"Why is that?" Sunggyu asked, and just in time, Kai and Tamo went inside the office. Taeil immediately stopped what he was doing and looked back at the two.
"So, how was it?" Taeil asked while Tamo and Kai approached him.
Tamo scratched the back of his head and answered, "You're right. That bitch knows how to fucking pickpocket. Kai's a thief himself, but none of us noticed him."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Minhyuk asked as he now joined his brothers.
"Taeil here asked us to walk around the shopping district near the building," Tamo stated, and then Kai went forward and continued, "And for fuck's sake, we were just walking when a guy suddenly bumped into me. Seconds later my wallet was gone and he replaced it with this fucking wood." He explained while showing the wood to the Princes, the SOLs, and Kharon.
"So what about it?" Jiyong asked, confused about what the purpose of this was.
"It means that our next Sinner is not even 10 feet away from this building," Taeil stated as he showed them the computer screen. The computer screen showed a map of the area where the headquarters is. And in that area, there was a blinking red dot.
"That my brothers..." Taeil pointed, "Is the location of our next Sinner."
"Damn Taeil, you are really getting better at this," Sunggyu told his brother, and Taeil smiled with a proud look plastered on his face.
"So what's the plan? Do we just ambush him?" Jackson asked.
Taeil looked at the second most powerful son and said, "Nope. To make it more exciting, we're going to illusion the fuck out of him."
