Devil Slave (Satan system)

<Alert! Favourable energy detected. Does the host wish to absorb it?>

This aleart came to Lenny has a surprise.

It had popped up immediately his finger touched it.

Lenny willed and the Dark line and fire energy was immediately absorbed into his body.

However what happened next nearly ran Lenny mad.

As the darkline energy mixed with fire entered his body, he rolled side to side on the ground.

Although it did not physically show, Lenny could feel as if the veins in his hands were on fire.

It was like the flames had somehow teleported into his veins, mixing into his blood and causing the wall of his blood vessels of his hand to wriggle like eels that had been poured with salt.

The pain was so breath taking that he had to immediately activate the technique he learnt from the monastery of pain and pleasure.

However, he could still feel it.

For a slight second there, he was so ready to cut off his arm if it would help him alleviate the pain.

Lenny was not a normal person. Basically, he had been through a lot of very terrible things, but even had to admit that this topped the charts of anything he had ever felt.

The darkline and fire energy mixture went straight into his chest.

And for a faint moment there, Lenny entered a kind of trans. He suddenly saw what he was sure was his own soul.

It floated in the nothingness.

It was in the shape of him.

In the center of his chest was a mass of blood. Without anyone telling him, Lenny instantly knew that the mass of blood in his chest was the blood that he had drank when he was first about to come into this world.

It was the cup of blood that Lucifer Morningstar had given him as a gift.

He watched as the darkline and fire energy that entered his body flowed from his finger into his chest and it instantly got absorbed into the mass of blood.

As it did, a small spark of light shine out.

However, as soon as it came, it also died.

Like a spark of fire that had suddenly lost fuel to burn some more.

For brief second it shone, Lenny could feel a kind of higher elevation.

Like he was a beggar that had been made a king.

It was like he was about to shed his human weakness and just when such a wonderful dream would be a reality, he was drawn back to earth.

In his life, even Lenny had to admit that he had never felt such a loss.

It was one thing to be a king. And definitely another thing to be there and dropped back to the life of a pauper.

It was a taste of bliss.

Like a hungry and thirsty man given the opportunity to have water and then only a drop was allowed to touch his tongue.

Almost as quickly as he was pulled into the trance, he was pulled out.

For a second there, Lenny was confused about his feelings.

There was the intense pain he had felt from the Darkline and fire energy mixture entering his body and there was the feeling in his soul that it brought to him.

For a few seconds, he was in a daze.

However, the gladiators were also in a daze.

This included Crusher.

None of them knew what varying emotions Lenny had just felt, but it did not really matter to them

Their only concern and question was...

"What the fuck just happened!?" Crusher asked.

To them, the moment Lenny touched the Darkline and fire mixture, the energy suddenly disappeared.

"What did you do?" Crusher asked again.

"Nothing!" Lenny shrouded his shoulders.

Everyone looked at one another and then back at him.

Crusher thought maybe he was seeing things.

He willed and activated it again. Mixing the energy in fire, he presented it once more before Lenny.

"Let's try that again!" Crusher suggested.

Now, Lenny was skeptical about this, but the look in Crusher's eyes showed that this was not a suggestion.

Then again, it was just pain.

Lenny touched the Darkline energy and fire mixture.

However, even though it disappeared, he did not feel the same pain as he did.

Also, he did not enter that trance that he had previously entered.

It was almost as of there was no obstruction.

Like the pathway leading to his chest had be cleared a bit by the first one.

Lenny raised a brow at this.

"Did that mean that if I took in more, I could get that same feeling once again?"

Lenny had this thought to himself.

He was about to ask Crusher for more. However, he noticed that he was sweating a lot.

Apparently, producing Darkline energy and mixing it with fire consumed a lot of energy from him.

However, Crusher still looked at Lenny in a weird manner.

Lenny sighed, "are you going to spill what's on your mind out?"

"Lenny! I can call you just Lenny right?"

"Yes!"

"What bloodline are you from?" Crusher asked not hidding his curiosity at all.

What Crusher meant about bloodline was not about Lenny's human bloodline.

It was about his demon side bloodline.

All Half Borns were as their names suggested.

They were half human, and half demon.

Basically, they had human mothers, but demon fathers.

Naturally, they inherited attributes from both parents.

However demon abilities only surfaced with the introduction of danger.

Crusher was asking to know, because he thought maybe Lenny had some kind of ability from his Demon father that let him negate Darkline energy or at least the mixture of Darkline energy and fire.

Lenny thought for a second. But even he could not tell what his demon father was.

Or rather who it was.

Then again, as far as he was concerned, every thing that had happened to him was as a result of his Satan system.

As far as he knew, all abilities he had was because of this system that he had been gifted.

In a way, he was almost about to blunt out Lucifer Morningstar's name.

After all, which son of a great man was not proud of his father?

In Lenny's opinion, Lucifer Morningstar was his father.

After a little small talk, crusher quenched the camp fire and everyone went to sleep.

...

As far as Lenny could tell, it was only but an hour since when they closed their eyes. But it was definitely more.

His body was just too tired from the constant stress.

He suddenly heard a most familiar alert from the system.

It was one that he contemplated whether he liked seeing or not.

After all, as much as it was undesirable, it acted as a warning and it also meant the opportunity to grow some more had arrived.

<Daily quest: survive the Chimera colony>

Instinctively, Lenny opened his eyes.

He was taken aback by who he saw and instinctively willed a piecer but stopped right at his neck.

It was Crusher.

"Not bad boy, but I'm not the enemy," he pointed just ahead.

Lenny could not believe what he was seeing. After all, it had never happened before.

Other insects apart from the cotton worm were not allowed into the safe zone.

However that was not what he was seeing.

At the moment, a group of Centipede Chimera ants were stealthily crawling into the safe zone.

"Shush!!!" CRUSHER warned, "it seems that the queen is desperate to get us. Come! Follow me!"

Lenny silently stood to his feet and followed after him.

Just to be on the safe side, Lenny and the remaining gladiators regardless of safe the safe zone was had slept in a strategic corners.

Lenny had learnt well from his last encounter that resulted into Bugger and Begger kidnapping him.

And now, it was paying off.

Following behind the tactical Crusher, Lenny and the remaining Gladiators silently snuck out an opening that they had prepared earlier in case of emergencies.

With the kind of life these men lived, one could never have enough back up plans to ensure survival.

Lenny followed crusher, crawling through a hole and they came out a different opening.

When they were out, the hole was closed behind them.

"We can't go on like this!" One of the gladiators spoke up, "now even the safe zones no longer serve their purpose. If we continue like this, we are bound to get killed and eaten."

All the others looked at one another and they nodded to each other.

Lenny could not believe it, but he had to admit that they had a point.

However, going back to the arena was not also an option these guys wanted to explore.

After all, punishment for escaping was not going to be cheap.

"We need to find a way out of here!" Another one suggested.

Crusher saw the look on their faces. He was the leader here.

He had to make the right choice.

"i know a way out of here. And I'm not talk just this cave. I mean out and under the sun."
