Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

"My mistress," Abbadon said, "I can sense a strong presence getting closer to us, would you like me to interfere?"

"Uhm," Raven simply nodded before going back into her serious, almost frightening, expression.

Leaving his mistress to her thoughts, Abbadon disappeared from the room they were in and intercepted the ghostly clown, just outside of the city.

"Ahh!!" The clown screamed, startled. "You scared me, man, why would you do that?" The clown started panting while wiping the imaginary sweat away from his mask's forehead.

"Anyway, Boss seems to have some interest in you and that girl that was with you, I suspect he's planning a special punishment for you, hehe!

"Anyhow, would you please be so kind and hand over the girl too? I'll take you to Boss and he can see his business with you two, and then I get my promotion!" He started clapping happily.

Waiting for some time, he realised that the person in front of him wasn't planning on providing answers to his questions. "What is it buddy? Did you scare yourself too when I appeared in front of you too all of a sudden? Will you wake up from it? Buddy? Hayo there?"

"You must be joking…" Abbadon's voice was low and cold. "My mistress is having the worst times, and instead of being with her supporting her like a loyal servant, I'm here to hear your jokes? You must be kidding me…"

Noticing Abbadon's dark expression, but no aura around him, the clown smiled sadistically. "You know, Boss said he wanted you too, but he didn't specify whether he wanted you dead or alive… I might as well get creative!"

With a sadistic smile, the clown pushed his hands against each other as a red sinister aura erupted all around him. 

"Lowly nameless demon," the clown said. "I, Roku, the loyal servant of Silver; the master who has named me, shall make you regret your life choices! 

"Out of everything that you could have done in your miserable life, you chose to oppose my master who was generous enough to give you some sort of hope by escaping… pathetic!" His voice was rising with each passing second, and so was his confidence. 

"Now, let me teach you to respect the powers and ranks we demons so highly hold!" He said as countless demonic ghosts danced around him, their howls were akin to haunted spirits that were hungry enough to eat anything in their way. 

"Oh, if it makes the situation any better, you should know that I hold the legendary rank of a Demon Lord... so don't feel bad when you feel your soul being shattered into nothingness, ok?"

Although he had expected something, even a single reaction, from the person in front of him, he didn't find it weird that he was unable to move a muscle or even speak in his presence.

As Roku was about to unleash the power of his ghosts, a maniacally dark and sadistic, yet amused, laugh thundered from the man in front of him.

"Kfufufufufu!" Abbadon laughed while passing his hand through his dark hair, pushing the two golden strands aside. "You surely jest. But that's alright, you did make me feel just a tiny bit better about my uselessness to my mistress… at least I know that someone is as useless as you are to their master-"

Without waiting for him to comprehend what he had just said, Abbadon flickered in the air and appeared next to Roku.

Taking a second to look around, Roku realized that his ghosts were nowhere to be found. Panic started rising in his heart as Abbadon's gloved hand touched his shoulder. 

He felt like a helpless insect that was caught by a spider's web. But what made it more terrifying was that, in his case, the spider has its mouth already open and ready to consume him whole.

"Ah, for your information," Abbadon muttered. "My name is Abbadon. I am my lady's executioner. Oh, and by the way, I am also a daemon… feel honoured to have died by my hands-"

Before being able to hear the last word, Roku's soul was banished into the bottomless void.

"Pathetic," Abbadon snarled in anger and disappointment. Clenching his fists, a thought crossed his mind, 'maybe if I can get some information from Silver about that girl… maybe… my mistress will get back to her normal cheerful smile? I'd surely be useful then!' The thought alone was enough to make him feel happy.

"My kind mistress," Maeve said while kneeling in front of Raven. "I am here with the three Sins as you've requested."

"Good," Raven said while looking at the three demon lords who looked terrified by looking at her expression, but she didn't mind. "I realize that I haven't given you two weeks as originally planned, but we have to move on. Do you think the three are ready?"

Looking at Orange, Green, and Cyan, Maeve raised her eyebrows. They each nodded in response. "Yes, my kind mistress," Maeve then confirmed.

"Good," Raven said as she approached Orange first. Touching his head, she was about to name him, before being suddenly stopped by a tug on her mind.

'Wait,' Tu said. 'Let me activate my blessing, it should help you with the mana cost since your own mana is terribly low in comparison.'

'Me too!' Gaia said.

Nodding silently, Raven watched as a system notification flashed in her mind.

[The Blessings: Sacred Contract of the Crimson Monarch and Passion of the Mother Spirit has been activated.]

Feeling her power increase, Raven started the naming rituals. 'Although I don't have access to my skill Apprentice of the Primordial Light, this should be enough for now, they can evolve further in the future.'

One by one, the demon lords were named by Raven, whom they have sworn to be loyal to.

"Aamon," Raven said to the orange haired demon, previously called Orange. "You shall be my daemon of strength and might, you now are my Indestructible Shield.

"Levi," Raven said to the demon girl with the green hair, previously called Green. "You shall be my daemon of trickery and stealth, you now are my Ghostly Assassin.

"And, Bel," Raven said to the Cyan haired demon, previously called Cyan. "You shall be my daemon of chaos and control, you now are my Dark Necromancer.

"My daemons… Rise!"
