<h4>490 More than an eye- Part 4</h4>


    "Not yet," replied dimir. "The same people whom you had manipted in the past have now been manipted against you. Let''s see," and the Devil looked at the crowd, "Your rightful King Calhoun Hawthrone would be pleased to leave justice in your hands. I leave them at your mercy!"


    "W-what?" Laurence asked, shocked, "Y-you said you would lower my punishment!"


    dimir offered the vampire a smile, "When you were born, your mother must have dropped you. Enjoy your time with them," and he started to leave from the ce while leaving the two sinners with the crowd, who had turned wild in anger. Shouting and cursing the two of them before they picked up weapons and stones to beat them up. As dimir walked away, he could hear the mother and the son screaming and shouting for help, before it turned to painful cries. Their sins were so deep that they would return to Hell if they died in here, and he would keep another session until he was satisfied.


    Before dimir could leave the ce, he caught sight of someone who seemed very fond of him. Not disappearing or detouring, the Devil continued to walk towards the blonde man with blue eyes.


    "What do you think you are doing?" asked the angel.


    "I didn''t know we were meeting here, Michael," stated dimir, the maddening smile returned on his lips.


    Michael had a displeased look on his face, "This is not Hell that you involve yourself in things that don''t concern you by using people."


    "And how do you know it isn''t of my concern?" dimir raised a single eyebrow. "And it is quite riching from the person who kept a rtionship with a demoness of this world before breaking it off."


    Michael''s eyes narrowed, "I did it not because I wanted to initiate a rtionship with the woman. It was because I had to make sure that I got to the dark angel first."


    dimir rolled his eyes, "Of course, what is a few heartbreaks, isn''t it? What are you doing here? I don''t like being followed, and it makes me ufortable."


    The angel red holes into dimir''s back as the Devil had walked forward and then turned around. Themotion continued in the central market ce where dimir had left Laurence and Morganna.


    Seeing dimir ready to disappear from here, Michael said, "Wait! I havee here with a proposal, and you might find it to your liking."


    "And what is that?"


    "The offer is straightforward, but you need to agree to it. You don''t understand the severity of what the dark angel is capable of-"


    "Yet you left her by herself until now. Is it because she received her wings back again, and you have confirmed things won''t go ording to what you all thought?" questioned dimir.


    "Right now the dark angel is only sending people to Heaven and Hell, but the time is not too far when Madeline will kill your very own grandson. And she will send him to a ce where nothing exists. He willpletely disappear. Is that what you want?" asked Michael. "You should know that we angels do only things that will keep bnce with the living and the immortal world."


    dimir stared at Michael, "Speak directly instead of going in circles."


    Michael''s eyes moved around the ce to make sure no one was eavesdropping on their conversation, and he said, "Madeline''s power will only increase as time goes. She is already near to surpassing her father''s abilities. And given Paschar''s wings and abilities have been reduced in the name of punishment, but it is still a lot in this world. I overheard about what that man said," he jerked his head towards the duo whom dimir had brought from Hell, who now was being attacked by the people.


    "So you were following me. We need to find you a new hobby," dimirmented, amused.


    The angel didn''t heed to the Devil''s distraction. Michael said, "What happened to your daughter was something that should not have happened. I can give you my word that she is safe in Heaven, but there are still traces of disturbance in her mind thates from thisnd as if she is not in peace with herself." This caught dimir''s attention. "I will give your daughter back to you. In a much better condition before she entered Heaven with all her memories intact about you and your grandson. In return, you will hand over the dark angel."


    A cunning smile appeared on dimir''s face as he stared at Michael.


    "What you mean to say is me getting on my grandson''s bad side and give the girl to you. You and the others already know with me around, it''s impossible to get to her, don''t you?" smirked the Devil.


    "I heard Calhoun loved his mother dearly, and I am sure he would be more than happy to have her back too," stated Michael. "Constance was your blood, your daughter. Madeline is Paschar''s daughter, and he might not have been able to be the right father, but it is only right to have her back where she truly belongs. She is not your blood, Lucifer."


    "Your offer is very tempting, but I will need time to think about it. Until then," and within a second, dimir disappeared, and Michael looked around the ce, realizing the Devil had already left.


    dimir appeared in front of a mansion that was far away from the vige he had visited. The mansion was an old one that looked broken and there were no fresh nts or flowers surrounding it as they had all dried up. He made his way through the gates, appearing in front of the door, and knocked on it.


    The door was half-opened by a maid, and she asked, "May I help you?" The maid had an apprehensive look on her face.


    dimir put his best smile on his face, and he bowed his head, "I am dimir Lazarus and am here to meet Rosamund Wilmot."


    The maid looked behind him to see no carriage or any other officials from the Hawthrone''s pce. "She''s-"


    "I know she''s here," the smile on dimir''s lips was eerie, making the maid nervous.


    Since her mistress had been banished from entering the castle or meeting anyone rted to the castle. They had no visitors. The King had taken away everything that belonged to the Wilmot''s, leaving them in poverty. But Mrs. Wilmot had kept her treasures somewhere in a secret ce and had brought this mansion in someone else''s name while living in the mansion without anyone''s knowledge.


    The maid opened the door, and dimir stepped in. "Please sit in the drawing room while I let Lady Rosamund know about your visit."
