88. REUNION
"It's really weird what's going on."
He looked at the siblings again.
"Brother, what is the way to trigger my demon form?" Grimm asked.
Amaze that Gaunt looked at his brother and then smiled.
"There is no easy way. It is a very difficult exercise that will get to the point where you will almost die."
Grimm laughed and shook slightly.
"I'm used to that."
"I know, that's why I told you."
A strange wind blew along with the force they felt. The siblings suddenly stood up.
"H-He's here! He found us!" Gaunt exclaimed.
"I know!"
The siblings prepared themselves. Gradually a black shadow appeared in the distance. It rises and they see the clump of boiling blood and form not just one form but two. The black-haired man with the braided braid appeared first. It looks new awake.
"Mammon!" exclaimed Grimm.
Mammon smiled at the siblings.
"Uy, Grimm is a young man. He's grown up. It seems like a while ago, you were just this big and I made you suffer..."
Mammon actually estimated Grimm's height when he last saw it. After that, Belphegor finally appeared. Its long, red hair swayed in the air. Even its garments are bright red in color. It looks very much like Grimm. All the features it got from the father. A frugal smile appeared on Belphegor's lips when he saw his two children. His attention was focused on Grimm whom he had not seen for a very long time.
It was now big and it looked more like him. There is no doubt that this is his son.
"How are you children? Won't you even greet me with a hug? Didn't you miss Papa?"
Belphegor even pretended to be ready to meet in a tight hug but his children did not move. He sees them ready for battle. He laughed softly.
"Don't be paranoid... I'm just here to say hello ah?"
He looked intently at the two. They remain silent as a sharp look is thrown at him. He saw on the side a young man wearing a priest's polo-shirt. It just sat quietly on the boulder while looking at them. It has what it holds a small box in hand.
"You! Are you the Exorcist Priest with Grimm?"
Clemen looked at the man with red hair. There is no doubt that this is Grimm's father. A frugal smile appeared on his lips.
"Yes! That's me!" he replied with a slight salute.
The man stared at him sharply. Obviously bent.
"How dare you three times a day!"
"God Bless you!" Clemen replied stubbornly.
"Aaaw!" Belphegor was annoyed.
He turned his attention back to his two children. These are his goals and he does not care about the Exorcist Priest.
"Best of all, come with me properly. Let's go back to hell and accept the punishment I prepared for you. After that, we will be reunited as a family. Isn't that fun?"
Annoyed, Gaunt clenched his right fist.
"Tsk! Family? You never mention that to us with that word because you never know that thing! Huh, we will never go back to hell!" Gaunt said firmly.
Belphegor was already expecting the word he had heard.
"Hell is your true home. You can't escape that place because you are demons and you belong there!"
After that, Belphegor immediately rushed to Gaunt. This is his priority because it is more difficult against Grimm. Gaunt resisted his attack but fired a fire from his arm up to his fist. Gaunt did the same. Their fires collided but Belphegor was much stronger. He intensified the fire in his arm and wrapped it around Gaunt's body.
"Aaargh!..."
Gaunt caught fire and at the same time, a powerful kick hit his side. He jumped. Belphegor was about to follow Gaunt but Grimm suddenly appeared in front of him. He defended his burning fist with his freezing fist. His fire died and he was shocked by what happened. Grimm took advantage of the opportunity...
"Were you surprised, my father?" his sarcastic language.
Subsequently a powerful blow to his left fist echoed in Belphegor's face. It also freezes. Belphegor jumped and fell violently into the frozen water. It shattered and he sank stealthily. Gaunt stood up and looked at his brother. He smiled, the time Grimm waited for this opportunity.
Grimm stared at his left fist. He can't seem to believe it. At last! He punched their father in the face! He thought that thing would never happen again but he did.
He turned his attention back to Belphegor as the debris splattered ice all around. Followed by the appearance of Belphegor with his right cheek slightly frozen. It caressed his cheek and set it on fire to melt the ice there. He then spat out blood in his mouth. Despite everything he was able to smile looking at Grimm.
"That was a warm surprise, Grimm... How dare you three times a day!"
Grimm is what Belphegor wants to rush. True, he was amazed at the ability it displayed. He made a whirlwind fire and then poured it on Grimm. But the latter acted quickly. He made a giant iceberg. He sped it off and a loud ice blizzard appeared. Belphegor's fire was extinguished but it started Grimm again. A strong blow to the face. The latter crossed his arms to ward off his father's powerful blow.
But it was accompanied by a force of great fire. He used the power to block it but Belphegor's fire was just so hot. It melted and still hit him. He backed away. Belphegor prepares to start attacking Grimm again but a white-fire whip wraps around his body. He saw Gaunt.
"Looks like you're both against me huh?" his comfortable language.
"I will not allow you to hurt my brother! You beast!"
Gaunt tightened his grip on Belphegor. He looked at his brother.
"Grimm, it's your turn!" he shouted.
"Yes!"
Grimm quickly ran to his father. He covered his fists with ice and then he punched powerful blows all over his body. Still not satisfied, he wrapped it in thick, hard ice. Belphegor seems to have become an inactive statue.
Mammon was just sitting next to the bridge and complacent watching. He was impress and he smiled.
"It's really fun when there's a family-affair!" he can’t stop himself from commenting.
Gaunt and Grimm stared intently at the ice-covered Belphegor. Gradually, Grimm's ice melted all over his body. They expect that to happen. They prepared again. A bright red flame gradually appeared all over on Belphegor's body. The fire is as colorful as blood. Its whole surroundings are smoky due to the melting of its ice. When it finally melt, they see Belphegor in his demon-form. Its reddish hair is reduced and its body size is increased. Its red demon wings are exposed.
"You really make me both angry! You scolders! How dare you three times a day!" angry language of Belphegor.
After that, Belphegor suddenly appeared in front of Grimm and Gaunt. They were punched hard in the body at the same time and they almost flew away at the same time. Gaunt first got up and changed his demon form as well. He confronted his father. He unleashed a powerful blow to the side.
"Urgh!" Belphegor growled.
But then, he grabbed Gaunt's arm tightly. The latter tries to pull his hand but Belphegor does not want to let it go.
"Do you think you can handle me because you already have a demon form? Don't forget who I really am!"
Belphegor gathered a large flame in his left hand and aimed it directly at Gaunt's face.
"Aaargh!..."
He let go of it and then kicked it hard in the back. It collapsed and sank. Belphegor then attacked Grimm but managed to put out his fire with the power of his ice. He was surprised to see what it looked like. It has wings made of ice that look like angels. It covered his arms and fists with ice and then punched him hard. He defended its attacks with his fists he covered with fire. Each encounter of their fists creates a thick mist due to the collision of their fire and ice. Even so, Belphegor strengthened the force he exerted.
"Great, Grimm! But you still lack of skills!"
Belphegor grabbed Grimm's fists and released a loud fire. Grimm's whole body was covered before that but before that the latter covered himself with thick ice. It just didn't work much because he was still consumed because the ice he made melted. Grimm shouted.
"Did you miss the feeling of being consumed by my fire, huh?" Belphegor teased.
Grimm looked at his father angrily and made a loud headbutt. Belphegor backed away and was released. A hot liquid flowed from its forehead. Belphegor wiped his forehead and looked at his hand. He saw a bright blood. He pointed sharply at Grimm.
"How dare you three times a day!..."
He wrapped himself in a large flame and then rushed to Grimm again. But even before he could get close to it, someone stopped him. Gaunt! He grabbed him by both arms and then covered him with a strong white flame to burn him.
"Uuuurgh!..."
Belphegor could not escape.
"Stab him, Grimm! This is a good opportunity!"
"Yes!"
Grimm made an ice sword. He aimed it at Belphegor's chest. He hurried here to push it into his father's heart. That's all, he was threw because of the strong fire force it released. Gaunt released it because it had burned, followed by a tight grip on his neck. Belphegor lifted Gaunt into the air.
"Do you think you can handle me? Look, your demon form is good... But you only did it physically. You don’t know how to use your true potential, Gaunt. Tsk, tsk, tsk! What a waste!"
Belphegor unleashed a powerful blow to Gaunt's chest. It writhed in pain and vomited blood. He sharpened his nails and lengthened them.
"Looks like you want to taste again the punishment I did to you because of Kristine. Here you go!"
Belphegor was about to bury the nails in Gaunt's chest but something very cold hit his hand. He looked there and saw the freezing of his hand up to his arm. He saw Grimm looking at him angrily. He set his hand on fire to melt the ice.
"Let go of my older brother!" Grimm's bold language.
A faint laugh escaped Belphegor.
"Force me to do that, Grimm!" he challenged.
"Is that so!"
Grimm started with Belphegor. He accumulated great power in his hand and formed a thick icy mist. He dropped it towards Belphegor as he started punching but he was shocked when he grabbed his neck. He could not escape. When the mist subsided, he saw Belphegor's smiling face. They both choked on the neck.
Clemen stood up and rushed to Belphegor but Mammon quickly stopped him.
"Ooops! You can't interfere, Exorcist! This is a Family affair!" warning by Mammon.
A frugal smile appeared on Clemen's lips. He does not care if one of the Prince of Hell is in front of him.
"Grimm is a family to me!" he answered quickly.
He saw that his student was at a disadvantage.
"You want a fight ah? All right, I'll give you a war!" Mammon said.
