87. REUNION

Clemen grabbed his chin and looked at the White Demon’s face. He could not believe the word he heard from it.

"Can you repeat what you said earlier?" he ensures language.

Gaunt looked sarcastically at the priest in front of him. He no longer remembers it.

"You must not be deaf. What I said is clear. What are you waiting for, Priest? I'm all yours!" his language is still comfortable.

He opened both his hands as a sign that he was ready to face all its attacks. Clemen was shaken. He dug into the pocket of his pants and then took the box of menthos. He took some candy and then ate it.

"Until now, you are still proud. I don't know if you are really sincere or you just want to tease and trip?" he exclaimed.

Gaunt did not speak but smiled sparingly at the priest in front of him. This behavior shows a difference compared to others he has already faced. He seems to already know why his brother likes it. It was crazy too and that was what he wanted to be with. He blinked when in a flash, Father Clemen came right in front of him. It punched him in the face and in the stomach. He backed away and rubbed his stomach and cheeks. He looked at the Exorcist Priest in shock. Its strength is different, like an archdemon or more!

Clemen clenched his fist at Gaunt.

"You know, I did not stop rehearsing after our confrontation. I waited a long time for you to meet again so that I can get justice for my friends... And here it is!"

Clemen sign of a cross and then punched Gaunt again. He was not satisfied yet so he released a series of powerful blows all over his body. The icy water was crushed and Gaunt's body sank into it. Despite everything it did not resist. Clemen even rained down lightning on Gaunt. Grimm just kept watching. He folded his arms.

"Hmp, Weird Priest is still in control."

Clemen has stopped attacking. He waited for Gaunt to recover from his fall. Gradually, the latter rose to the pit he had fallen into. He knew Grimm's power was the reason why the river where they were was frozen. When he got up, suddenly someone grabbed his neck. He was no longer surprised to see Father Clemen's face. He strangled him tightly and then threw a powerful lightning bolt at his body.

"UUuuuurgh!..."

That lightning striking his body was strange. It hurts even more in Belphegor's fire... He knows the reason, that lightning is holy and he is a demon. The strong lightning had stopped his body and Clemen was still holding his neck. He looked at its face.

"What, are you going to kill me?" he asked.

Father Clemen looked sharply at him. It clenched its fists tightly.

"I really want to do that thing... But no! I will be just like you when I kill you. One more thing, I promised Grimm that I would forgive you when you asked me for that. I know you also went through something painful in. I'm a little related there. That's all, I'll beat you up!"

Clemen punched Gaunt hard in the chest. He aimed at its heart. At the same time, he punched the lightning bolt flowing down its chest. That was a dragon shape...

"Aaaaaargh!..."

Gaunt had a hard time with the pain he felt in his chest... It's just that, it just ignores the pain he once had. Clemen stopped the attack and then walked away from him. He was surprised and he slowly got up as he rubbed his chest. His clothes were also torn. His lip was bleeding because it was broken by a strong blow.

"Wait, I thought you were going to beat me? Is that it?" he wondered.

Clemen looked at him.

"If I continue to beat you, I might kill you when I can no longer hold back."

"In that case, what now?"

Clemen folded his arms and then smiled as he looked at the demon Gaunt. An idea he thought of as punishment.

"I will make you my slave. I will take you to church and you will serve me as a sacristan!" his announcement.

"HAAAA?!" Grimm and Gaunt reacted almost at the same time.

The siblings looked at each other. Gaunt couldn't stand it, he pointed at Father Clemen.

"Are you crazy, huh?! Me, will you make me a sacristan?!" he could not believe his language.

"Yes! And I will take you to the church itself! I will also teach you to pray, huh. That would be a great punishment, right?!"

Gaunt scratched his forehead.

"You asshole! Just beat me up until you get bored! Even if you kill me, exorcist... I don’t care! I don't want that punishment!"

But a sly smile appeared on Clemen's lips.

"That's what I want in return for justice for my friends. You don't have to please!"

Gaunt clenched his fists tightly. They are on fire...

"Ooops! You promised Grimm!" Clemen pointed to Grimm who was beside him.

Gaunt looked at his younger brother. He had already abandoned his only family... And what had happened to him was not good so he would never do that again.

"F-Fine!" his forced language.

His flames are gone.

"Buwisit!" he whispered.

Grimm laughed softly at the scene he saw. He walked closer to his Big Brother Gaunt. He smiled as he held out his right hand to it.

"Brother, welcome to our group!" he said.

Gaunt looked at Grimm's outstretched hand. A frugal smile appeared on his lips. He reached for his brother's hand.

"Huh, thank you!"

The siblings shook hands. Grimm sat down next to him. He looked at it.

"Sorry for all the things I’ve done to you, Grimm. Sorry... The amount I owe you."

Grimm smiled at his older brother.

"I have forgiven you for a long time. I know that the anger you showed me before was not for me. One more thing, I am also a little guilty of you... I became weak so I betrayed you and-"

"That's enough, Grimm. Don't talk about it. We both know that Belphegor is to blame for all this..."

Gaunt clenched his fists tightly. Their father was able to deceive him for a long time...

Meanwhile... Victor had just finished eating dinner at Michael and Raguel's house. He was really not allowed to refuse them.

"I hope you keep my secret." Michael reminded.

"Yes, I will keep it."

"Go home. And be careful, Assassin Demon."

Victor smiled awkwardly and scratched his neck.

"All right, I'm leaving and thank you for a delicious dinner."

"Okay, come back ah?" Raguel stubbornly chased.

Michael laughed at what it said. Victor turned around and walked away. He took a deep breath and rubbed his chest as he got away from home. He whistles as he walks when he sees a demon bat. If he is not mistaken it is Belphegor's disciple. Out of curiosity, he followed that. Soon, he saw another demon bat... They seemed to be talking until they were enveloped in red flames and disappeared into space.

"What could that be?" he just said.

He sighed and shook. Doesn't he know why he even focused on those useless creatures ... He held on his chin and then suddenly remembered something.

'Just wait! They are Belphegor's spies! "

He clenched his fists and tighten his jaws.

"I have to go to Grimm and tell him about it. He should be careful because his father is already acting!"

He immediately left and went to Grimm's house. His older brother Andrey was the one he found in the bakery.

"I'm sorry, Victor but my brother is not here, he leave." he said.

"Where did he go?"

Andrey shrugged.

"I don't know. That Weird Priest picked him up here again, I mean! Father Clemen. They walked again. Try to ask the church, maybe someone knows where they went." he advised his brother's friend.

"Thank you, Brother! All right, I'm leaving!"

"All right! When you see Grimm, send him home too. He's the one assigned to make pandesal for tomorrow!"

"Okay, get there!"

Victor left.

"Oh no! Where did they go?" he retorted.

Meanwhile... Belphegor blinked when his spy demon bat appeared in front of him. He ordered it to find Gaunt. He was depressed. The duration without the update reaches him.

"Hopefully, you'll have something nice to update me on. Because if you don't, you already know what will happen to you, you animal!"

"Ek! Ek!"

He heard laughter in the distance and he saw Mammon — also one of the Seven Prince of Hell. The sin of greed. As before, he looks like that he just wake up and got up from bed. He was wearing a grey sweater that was a bit loose at the neckline and black jogging pants with green lines on the sides. His black hair is braided but messy and he is no longer wearing shoes. He is barefooted. This is what he turned his attention to first.

"What are you doing here?"

Mammon walked closer to where he was. When it finally got close to him it stood next to him.

"Hmm... Nothing. I just want to update about your reprimanding children. How are those bastards?" teasing language of Mammon.

He threw a sharp slap at it.

"How dare you three times a day!" he said.

"Thank you..."

He turned again to the demon-bat in front of him. He signaled for it to speak. And at his signal it did provide information. After he heard all the updates it gave, he smiled. He played with the strand of his hair that was on the side of his face.

"In that case, my two rebellious children have sided with each other... How dare them three times a day!"

He clenched his right fist tightly. With so much pressure, his palm bled. Blood flowed and dripped on the floor.

"So, what now?" Mammon asked.

But Belphegor did not answer. He remained silent while thinking deeply. Mammon sighed and shrugged.

"Nice talking to the air!" he just said.

Belphegor took a few deep breaths until he finally made a decision... He did not know how angry he was now with what he found out. He clapped his fingers and a rotating white-fire appeared next to him as the young Kristoff appeared.

"Get ready, Kristoff. We're going to your father. You'll meet in person. And your uncle Grimm, you'll meet him too. A happy reunion will surely take place today..."

A meaningful smile appeared on his lips. Mammon laughed softly while looking at Belphegor.

"I want to go there. Don't worry, because I will not interfere in your little family-affair. I just want to watch a fun scene." Mammon said excitedly.

Belphegor looked at Mammon.

"All right, come along. I'll make sure that we will have a fun reunion." He retorted.

Mammon clapped softly.

"I expect that..."

Meanwhile... Grimm and Gaunt remain seated in the frozen waters of the river. They talk about a lot of things. Past events. Father Clemen sat on the side and looked intently at the siblings. He took the box of menthos from the pocket of his pants and then played with the box in his hands.

"It's really hard to forgive." he said.

He looked up at the sky. What is the plan for him? Why is a Priest Exorcist like him, along with allies demon brothers the son of one of the Seven Prince of Hell?
