Azazel stood with his arms crossed, staring at the robed figure who dared claim the name Moloch. The stranger lowered his hood revealing the massive head of a bull, a gold ring hanging from his nose."Now you believe me, brother?" the bull‑headed demon asked. Azazel's eyes narrowed. "Brother? The disrespect… I should kill you for siding with Lucifer during the rebellion."Moloch raised his hands calmly. "My apologies, Dark One. But as you can see… the clear winner was not us. I made a choice for survival." Azazel moved.A blur. A shockwave.
Impossible speed.His fist connected cleanly with Moloch's jaw, sending the bull‑man crashing to the ground.But before Azazel could finish him, Moloch smashed a small glass vial against the floor. A shimmering force wrapped around Azazel mid‑air, freezing him like he'd been glued to reality itself. Azazel snarled. "What is this?" Moloch wiped blood from his mouth and stood. "Magic." "Release me," Azazel growled. "Or I will kill you."Moloch chuckled. "If I release you, you'll kill me anyway. I only wanted to talk."Azazel strained, feeling the spell weakening. "How are you not dead? You were defeated." Moloch wandered the chamber, picking up items casually. "Oh, I died. But before my fall… I prepared a few spells."Azazel's eyes sharpened. "Which spells?" Moloch smiled. "The ability to live again a spell of reincarnation but i did needed some loyal followers to make it happen." Azazel's expression darkened. "You played death." "Not only played him," Moloch said, gathering his belongings. "I conquered him."He pulled his hood back over his head with one hand. "Well… nice seeing you, old friend. Maybe next time, you'll hear me out." Azazel felt the spell loosening movement returning to his limbs. Moloch slipped out of the chamber and closed the entrance behind him.The moment the spell broke, Azazel shot forward, ripping the door open and launching into the sky with incredible speed. He scanned the forest below, eyes burning with fury. "Damn it… he's gone," Azazel muttered. "That runt. Next time, I'll have your head."With a burst of power, Azazel turned and flew toward New Heaven City.
