BXBX NOVEL Chapter 22 22: What's In The Book?
\'She said she was getting something for him, she also mentioned an Azadon. What could this object be? And who the heck is Azadon?\' Alex wondered, and he decided to ask Asmodea after her class.
When he entered the classroom, he noticed Asmodea was talking to a student, apparently explaining something about the Cuban Revolution.
\'Still, play the part of a history teacher eh?\' Thought Alex, who took his normal seat.
The normal class time passed like any other class, Alex stayed awake again, his head swimming with thoughts about Asmodea, Nyssa, Lauryn, and that girl from before school.
Finally, school let out for the day, and when all the students left the class, Alex approached Asmodea.
Before he could ask any questions, Asmodea kissed Alex, plunging her tongue into his mouth.
Alex returned his tongue in kind, since he was unable to pull away from her steel hug.
When they finally finished, Asmodea walked back to her desk, sitting in the teacher\'s chair asking in her regular seductive tone, "Now what happened while I was gone, my trip proved successful, and I assume something good has happened to you as well."
Alex replied in kind, "Yea... You didn\'t happen to know anything about an arranged marriage do you?"
"Oh yes, about that, I did not actually forget, I just did not expect your fiancee would show up this early... She takes after her mother apparently. Yes, your predecessor had arranged a marriage with the daughter of the Princess of Pride in order to secure your legitimacy to the throne. I should mention, half-breed demons take after their mother more than their father."
"Uh huh, well she showed up and it was completely out of the blue. Her name is Nyssa, and she was very adamant about becoming my wife. Well, I can\'t do anything about it now. Also, a girl at my school, her name is Lauryn, she asked me if she could accompany us. She said she was a witch, and that she wanted to \'bask in the power of demons.\'"
Asmodea raised an eyebrow, "She certainly is subtle, I have no problem with that, witches are known for the unique form of magic. If she is skilled, she would certainly be an asset when we travel to the Land of Lust. I see your stamina has increased, even though it has only been a couple of days, you have changed."
Alex didn\'t want to talk about himself anymore, he was more interested in what this trip was Asmodea was on, "So what\'d you do on this trip of yours?"
"Ah yes, I remember mentioning two things before I left, one I proved successful on, the other, I left in someone else\'s hands. Here is the most important object you will ever lay your hands on." Asmodea reached her hands under the desk and pulled up a lock box and a key.
"This box has a spell on it, only a true Lord of Lust can open it, anyone, who is not will... Burn." Asmodea said mercilessly, then with an unwelcome vigor she said, "So please, go ahead and open it."
Alex recoiled his head away from the lockbox after hearing the word, \'burn.\'
He wasn\'t sure if he liked the sound of that, no, he knew he didn\'t like the sound of it. Asmodea put the key in his hands and enclosed his fingers around it, nodding slowly.
"Do not worry, I know that you are the Lord of Lust, there is no possible way that you are not. Trust me and open the box." She said.
Still unsure, Alex held the key by its edge near the lock of the box. "Here goes nothing." He said gripping the key hard while closing his eyes. Alex then pushed the key into the lock and twisted.
He felt tingly, thinking he was about to burst into flames, he took his grip away from the key.
However, the box opened. Peering inside, Alex saw a leather-bound book, it was large, and he felt awed.
Asmodea shivered, she never like the book, it felt, weird, but she knew it was necessary for Alex to utilize his power in the best way possible.
The previous Lord of Lust had possessed this book for as long as she could remember.
"What\'s in the book, Asmodea?" Alex asked.
"I have never peered inside it myself, but your predecessor said it contained every spell he had cast, and many more. He said it was a font for his power and could channel an unlimited amount of his strength into it. He said it was the most powerful demonic object in the world, and only one with his power could wield it. And he called it the... Grimoire."
"And so it is now yours. I have no idea how it works, so here is your homework for this class." Asmodea smiled, despite feeling prickly near the... Grimoire, "So I want you to read out of it until you feel ready enough to take even an angel in combat."
Angel... That reminded Alex of something. He told Asmodea about the girl of this morning, "This morning, I saw someone strange, and she spoke weirdly. Then when I spoke to Lauryn, she said she could sense three demons, that\'d be us, and an angel within the city. I think that girl from this morning might be an angel."
Asmodea frowned, "Then you better get started on your homework. I may be able to fight off a single angel, so should this Nyssa and Lauryn. But if many angels come, I do not know what might happen. I believe nothing serious will happen since the agreement is still in effect, but one should always expect the unexpected."
