The Crown's Obsession

551 Angels and Demons- Part 3

"Why does he have feathers?" asked one of the angels. "Only an angel can have feathers on their wings."

"He's the Devil's grandson," said another angel, watching Calhoun.

"Lucifer's grandson?" came the shocked words of another angel, his eyes turned wide as he looked at Calhoun.

Calhoun watched the five angels who had come to greet him. He could sense more angels making their way here, but it didn't matter to him.

"Tell me where Madeline is, and there won't be a need for a fight to break in here," announced Calhoun.

"Do you think we would let a demon-like yourself to be here? Go back to where you came from. This is no place for you unless you want an angel's staff to smote you to death," warned one of the angels with a stern gaze as he looked at Calhoun.

"Do you think he is as strong as Lucifer?" asked another angel.

"Lucifer is no more powerful," said the earlier angel, "He's a fallen angel who has fallen and made the underworld his home."

While the angels were having a quiet and pleasant chit chat with each other about the former angel of Heaven, who was now the Devil, Calhoun raised his hand forward for the fire to appear in his fists.

"I guess I will have to burn you fuckers to get an answer," came the low, threatening voice from Calhoun.

"How dare you use words like that in here!" one of the angels looked upset and angry.

Calhoun stared at the angel with a dead expression on his face, "Polite words didn't seem to work, so I decided to go back to the way I speak."

He remembered the words that Vladimir spoke to him before arriving near the gates of Heaven.

'There are angels guarding the front gates, but there are more angels inside to protect Heaven. If you are trying to go and get back Madeline, it is tougher than you expect because there are archangels who have abilities and immense strength. And apart from it, you don't know where they have kept Madeline,' Vladimir had informed Calhoun.

'Where do you think they have kept her?' inquired Calhoun.

'Probably in the heart of Heaven. Remember that Madeline's memory has been erased related to the life she once had in the living world. You cannot take a soul by force from here, that is not willing to leave. Which means abducting is not possible,' stated Vladimir.

'Great,' cursed Calhoun.

Calhoun remembered the time he had taken in the past for Madeline to fall in love with him. Now with her memory erased, he would have to rebuild the memories which he didn't mind. But the problem was that if Madeline didn't want to come with him, stepping out of Heaven, he wouldn't be able to take her from here.

The angel's staff were quick to attack Calhoun, but he stopped it with his bare hands. He didn't need any weapon, and he used his demon abilities to hit and push the angels one after another who came at him like swarming bees.

"We have been given the order to kill the demon. Don't hold back!" came another angel's voice from behind who had only joined the battle.

But no matter how many angels came and tried to attack Calhoun, the Devil's grandson was too strong for them to defeat. One of the angels threw the wire?that was similar to the bolt of lightning to capture the demon. The wire moved back and forth Calhoun as they tightly circled around his body to stop him from using any more of his abilities.

"Ha! I caught him! We angels are much stronger than the demons. The angels will always prevail," said the angel who had thrown the electric gold wires.

"Good job, Luth!" praised one of the fellow angels who was nearby. "We need to take him-"

His words were interrupted when Calhoun's body started to break the wire, and the angels quickly threw some more wires on the demon. Something started to change within Calhoun as he tried to break himself free from the wires.

Calhoun's eyes completely turned pitch black and the complexion of his skin looked paler than before, along with the little nerves beneath his skin that came into view. Something started to protrude from the top of his head like a stem that was growing and branching like a tree. It resembled him to look like the Salvette Mortems that had antlers. Even the wings that were on his back grew larger.

With one push, the wires that had tried to keep Calhoun still had broken and turned ineffective.

The angel's eyes widened, watching something they had never seen before. Did demons have antlers like that?!

"I have no time to play with you people," Calhoun glared at them, and when he moved his hand, the angels who were on his right suddenly flew away from their position because of the force produced by his one single movement.

The angels tried to resist him by bringing their staffs forward to stop them from being swept away. But when Calhoun raised his hand towards the angel and moved his hand, the angels were either blown away.

"Calhoun," came the voice that Calhoun was familiar with since the High House had started functioning. His eyes fell on the archangel, who had arrived at the scene.

"Michael," Calhoun said the angel's name.

"Heaven is no place for the Devil or for you," stated Michael. The archangel noticed the strange appearance of the King of Devon while feeling his power being emitted from where he was.

One side of Calhoun's lips pulled up, "Don't worry, I don't have any plans to stay here. We will leave, once I find Madeline and take her back with me."
