Episode 10D
"I liked the demons' simple and straightforward hearts, and settled down here. But merciful God did not allow us to exist, even on this outpost of a planet. Meters fell from the Heavens and we retreated to our own realm, beneath the surface." He sighed here, still upset about that annihilation. "We were not dead. We remained as pure will. Eventually, when humans appeared on Earth, we substantialized ourselves by merging with the humans and began to regain existence on Earth. The very first of which is the beautiful woman prostrated on the ground next to you. She was intentionally left more human than demon; for my own desires. You see, I was lonely, although I hadn't the word for it then. Humans always despised me. But then, I met YN and I had to have her. So I sent my favorite demon, Persephone, to merge with her."
You sat up quickly and gave him the most hurt look you ever had.
"You told me it was an act of defiance against you." You stood up and walked towards the glowing being. "You said, no, you promised me that you had nothing to do with it. You stole me from my family. From my life. Intentionally." You were in his face now as much as you could be as he looked down at you concerned. He had boasted too much and now he was in even hotter water. "I consoled myself with the very fact that I could at least trust you. And you allowed me to believe that. For thousands of years, Satan, I believed you were apologetic; that you didn't mean for me to turn into this monster."
You looked back at Akira, who was looking at Satan still unable to look at you.
"I'm not going to indulge your fantasy anymore. I will wait until Akira is ready to leave with me. I shall not be your wife for a moment more of my immortal time." With hurt wreaking havoc on your face, you walked back to the edge of the quarry, using all the hope that you had left in your heart to believe that Akira would hear Satan out and rescue you.
Satan remained quiet for a long time after that, trying to absorb what you had said. But he didn't really have to capability to understand the feeling of betrayal that you and Akira both felt now. So eventually, he just continued talking.
"The... The legends... of werewolves, vampires and ogres are all forms of demons merged with humans. Further back in antiquity were people who learned of us from our many strange remains. For a very long time, Persephone and I locked ourselves away within the demon's realm. We were in love. We had two children,Macaria and Melinoe. Delightful really. We, of course, did not allow them to come up with us when my plan began. The memory of Satan was locked away in my mind when I came back into existence on Earth. However, I instinctively eliminated those who tried to kill me." Satan paused for a flashback of when he had first met Akira. He remember that he had just told him not to be scared, and that it would be okay. "Even when Jenny came to get Persephone and I, I didn't recover any memory of being Satan, but subconsciously, I was putting a plan to revive demons into action."
