Chapter 577: The Seven
"Damien disappeared?" Leviathan also repeated what Theodore had asked because he thought that it was someone they all knew. He had a habit of mixing up names so he asked as if he also knew someone by the name of Damien.
Satan rested his cheek on his fist and asked nonchalantly, "Am I the only one who doesn\'t know who this Damien is?"
Lucifer cleared his throat and looked towards the closed doors of the meeting room they were in. With a flick of his fingers, he set up a barrier so that their discussion wouldn\'t leak out of the room.
He especially didn\'t want Lilith to hear the discussion that happened inside because he could guess what kind of turn the meeting was going to take.
After putting up the auditory barrier, Lucifer replied while maintaining his intimidating aura and in his commanding voice, "Damien is the son of Lilith."
"Pffffffffffff..." Leviathan, who was in his man-like form, spurted water all over the table and exclaimed in a scruffy voice, "You two had a child again?"
And just like what Lucifer had expected, he got the surprised expressions from the Princes who didn\'t already know about Damien. They all thought along the same line as Leviathan because of the history he had with Lilith.
"Levi!" Beelzebub was the first one to growl at that contemptuous claim of Leviathan.
Prince Belphegor got startled by that sudden loud voice from Beelzebub. He was already dozing off even when he was sitting right in front of Lucifer. After getting startled, he opened his eyes wide and tried to stay awake. But he dozed off immediately.
"Tsk!" Leviathan clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes at Beelzebub who was sitting on the right side of the King.
And he sneered at Beelzebub, "Your habit of acting all high and mighty in front of our King hasn\'t died yet, Zebulbee."
Beelzebub glared at Leviathan and shouted again, "I am not acting high and mighty! You are the one who is acting rude in front of His Majesty."
Leviathan shrugged his shoulders and casually said in a monotone, "I was just asking to know if a congratulation was in order. I would be happy to celebrate the birth of our King\'s son. In fact, everyone in the Hell realm would love to celebrate the birth of His Majesty\'s son."
Belphegor\'s drowsy eyes widened all of a sudden. He wiped the drool from the corner of his lips and asked in a sleepy voice, "His Majesty gave birth to a son? When did that happen?"
Theodore and Beelzebub face-palmed themselves while Satan, Belphegor, and Leviathan were murmuring about how they don\'t get any information about the pandemonium and their King lately. And Mammon was quietly observing the chaos in the room.
Lucifer, on the other hand, was on the verge of spreading out his wings and literally letting the hellfire loose in the room.
His eyes glowed bloodred with fury and he screamed with his absolute authoritative power, "Silence!"
All of the Princes\' mouths got sealed up when Lucifer shouted the word.
And all the Princes were now suddenly wary of their King. Their bodies turned stiff and some of them even stopped drawing in their breath.
They knew that right now if they moved a finger then Lucifer would cut off their finger. So they stayed in their respective seats as if they were statues while avoiding looking directly into Lucifer\'s eyes.
Lucifer took a deep breath in. And finally, he calmly yet coldly answered the raised questions, "I have not fathered any child nor do I have any intention to do so in the near future. Damien is Lilith\'s son and her son only."
Lucifer turned his icy glare towards Mammon and added, "Our dear Prince here became a little greedy like he always is and kidnapped her son."
All the Princes turned their surprised and angry glares at Mammon. They were inwardly blaming Mammon for having been called to this emergency meeting.
Belphegor was the angriest towards Mammon.
He forgot that Lucifer was still angry and within split seconds, he transformed into his demonic form. A pair of spiral horns that resembled the horns of a ram and a tail that resembled to that of a cow got manifested.
Mammon was sitting on his right. And Belphegor immediately swatted Mammon with his tail with all his might while screaming in his mind, "You greedy muscles! My sleep got disturbed by your greediness!"
And not just once, Belphegor kept on swatting Mammon all over his huge body until Satan, who was sitting on his left, smacked him on his head and pointed his brows towards Lucifer.
When Belphegor turned his gaze and his attention back at Lucifer, he found the King narrowing his bloodthirsty eyes at him.

But before he got scolded by the King, Belphegor pointed at the swarm of flies hovering behind Beelzebub and gestured that he was just swatting the flies that were all over Mammon\'s body.
Lucifer closed his eyes and tried not to lose his calm. And he thought to himself, "Ah! I had already forgotten why I stopped calling the meeting of The Seven. Now I remember why…"
He took a deep breath in for the umpteenth time. If it was not for Lilith then he would never have summoned all of the Princes in one place, not even in his dream.
After taking a minute or so to calm down, Lucifer finally started to speak again. He gave all the details of the events that led to the disappearance of Damien all while glaring at Mammon.
Mammon was lowering his head in shame. He didn\'t even dare to breathe audibly. He just wished that the meeting would be over soon so that he could escape from all the penetrating gazes of the fellow princes.
And after giving out the details, Lucifer opened the seals in the Princes\' mouths and ordered, "Now that all of you know what happened, spread out and search the boy. Bring the boy back here. Alive."
"As you wish, Your Majesty." Mammon was the first one to bow to the King and disappear from the room.
Beelzebub was the second. He bowed to Lucifer and said, "I will mobilize the army as well as my familiars to search in and around the Pandemonium."
Lucifer gave a nod and Beelzebub also disappeared from there to look for Damien in the capital city of Hell – the Pandemonium.
Theodore also got up from his chair and said, "Damien hasn\'t teleported inside our Palace. But if he is anywhere on Earth then I will bring him back as soon as I find him."
However, just as he was about to teleport, Prince Leviathan manifested his serpentine tail and wrapped it around Theodore.
As his name suggested, Prince Leviathan\'s demonic form was that of a Leviathan. And he could also alter parts of his body to resemble his true form without having to transform into a full-fledged sea serpent.
Theodore gave a side glare to that Prince and sighed. And he asked in a cold and piercing voice, "What do you want, Levi?"
