The Entirety Of Hell Knows That Satan Has A Lover - Chapter 1


"Hey, have you heard?"

Whispers spread throughout the corners of Hell.

In the depths of the ninth circle, a king-level demon taunted his companion, "In the recent holy war, a new archangel appeared and accused us demons of slandering them." 

His voice suddenly became uncannily similar, "I haven't heard of the Archangel Lucifer!"

"Hahaha!" His companion burst into laughter, "The shining morning star of Heaven back in the day..."

The conversation abruptly stopped.

As if touching on a taboo subject, even the audacious king-level demon couldn't help but fall silent.

Similar rumors spread in many places, but most were concentrated in the areas where high-level demons resided. For example, the ninth circle of Hell, the circle of Treachery, and the eighth circle of Hell, the circle of Fraud were filled with intense demonic energy and spatial oppression. Only powerful demons could live there for a long time. This included the king-level demons and the Fallen Angels who followed Satan in his descent.

The king's city in the ninth circle of Hell had a dark barrier that protected the Fallen Angels, allowing them to live there safely.

The Fallen Angels were once angels in Heaven.

Satan is also one of them.

Satan once had a beautiful name: Lucifer.

"Fei Er" (菲尔) was his title, symbolizing the morning star that heralds the dawn and illuminates the world.

If Hell is the filthiest place in the world and demons are the carriers of negative emotions, then Archangel Lucifer is the nemesis of demons and the embodiment of the seven virtues: humility, patience, chastity, temperance, tolerance, diligence, and generosity.

He was perfect and it was only natural.

However, all of this ended when Lucifer fell into Hell. Now, tens of thousands of years later, Heaven has erased all traces of Archangel Lucifer and modified the history books that record the events of Heaven.

Therefore, angels born in the last millennium do not even know of Lucifer's existence.

They only know that Satan's true name is Lucifer.

"I wonder what His Majesty thinks," the demons speculated about Satan's inner thoughts. Even though they mock the ignorance of the archangels with their words, most demons secretly derive a twisted sense of pleasure from it.

Their king belongs only to Hell.

Compared to the demons who delight in the misfortune of others, the Fallen Angels who prefer to stick together are in a bad mood. It's just a Holy War. They've been fighting for so many years, and the outcome is determined by each side's ability. But this time, the joy of victory cannot erase their anger!

The Fallen Angels are resentful, but they have no right to complain to Satan. The only ones who have the right to complain are the Seven Deadly Sins, who keep their mouths shut tighter than a clamshell and wish this topic had never been brought up. 

In the palace of the Lord of Hell, Satan leans on his throne and casually remarks, "The current archangels are really not as good as the previous generation's."

After a moment, he chuckles in the dumbfounded eyes of his subordinates.

"Next time, kill them all."

For tens of thousands of years, the conflict between Heaven and Hell has persisted, yet the upper echelons of both realms have suffered little to no casualties.

However, this is a mere technicality.

Newly born archangels don't have such good treatment. Several archangels who had been promoted to the rank were killed in the Holy War. It should be noted that the seraphim class ranks second, and without divine grace, they can never ascend to the rank of archangel. From the sixth day of creation until now, there have only been eight naturally born archangels, five of whom have fallen and are now part of the Seven Deadly Sins in Hell.

At the meeting, the other Seven Deadly Sins looked at Beelzebub with condemning eyes.

"Your Majesty, the outcome of the next Holy War will certainly satisfy you." Beelzebub, as the Prime Minister of Hell, made this promise without hesitation. He even said that if Lucifer commanded, he could tear up the Holy War agreement between Heaven and Hell!

"Hmm." Lucifer responded without denying it.

Then he ignored the excited Beelzebub and looked at his other subordinates sitting at the conference table. The Fallen Angels who caught Satan's gaze sat up straight with their ears pricked. "The celebration banquet will be held in seven days. Don't be late," he said.

Several Fallen Angels looked constipated.

Although they were supposed to follow local customs, victory celebrations with demons involved were always the worst.

Seeing the unnatural expressions on the Fallen Angels' faces, Leviathan, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, laughed. She looked like a little girl and her laughter was very innocent and cute. Even her two little tiger teeth were showing. "I will participate every time. Your Majesty, please rest assured!" she said. (1)

Lucifer stepped down from his throne and, with a light sentence, cut off her enthusiasm: "No drinking allowed, lest you get drunk and misbehave."

Leviathan burst into tears.

Doesn't that mean she has to drink juice or milk at the extravagant parties in Hell?! The demons will probably mock her for a thousand years!

At the celebration banquet seven days later, the usual disdainful attitude of the Fallen Angels towards demons suddenly changed. The party became a place for demons to let loose. The demons complained that after tens of thousands of years, there were still so many virgins among the Fallen Angels. It was a disgrace to Hell's digestive speed!

The demons were eager to "bully" the Fallen Angels.

Leviathan, the Chaos demon, for example.

How dare she drink juice at the party! Did she look down on the wine brewed in Hell?

The reason why the demons dared to tease the Fallen angels so arrogantly was that Lucifer rarely interfered with their actions during the party. As long as they didn't go too far, they could do whatever they wanted.

Samael forcefully pushed away a demon who wanted to touch his butt. With a bang, the drunk demon smashed into the wall and passed out. He said to Beelzebub, who liked to hold parties, "That's why I don't want to come to the party."

Beelzebub shrugged elegantly and said maliciously, "This isn't Heaven. You can play as much as you want here."

Samael didn't hesitate to step on Beelzebub's foot and said, "I've at least been with Lilith and tasted the flavor of desire. And you, a virgin for tens of thousands of years...how dare you advise me?"

Beelzebub instantly crushed his wine glass.

Mind your own business!

As Satan's right-hand man, the Fallen Angels were engaged in a fierce battle. Amidst the revelry, a drunken demon broke through their defenses and approached Satan. Instead of sitting on his throne, Satan was standing and drinking at a nearby spot. The demon tried to get closer, but the Fallen Angels kept blocking him.

When Satan heard a loud burp, he looked over and saw a drunk, yet sharp-eyed demon, who was none other than the strongest king-level demon in Hell, Baal. As he represented the demons' attitude, just as Satan's subordinates represented the Fallen Angels' attitude, Satan gave him some face, "Baal, what brings you here?"

"Your Majesty, we have a gift for you."

Baal, who had just broken through the defenses, rubbed his hands and grinned innocently. When he said "we," he was referring to the group of king-level demons. The question was, what good thing could the demons possibly have? Satan was skeptical but calmly asked, "What gift?"

"...Your Majesty needs to see it for yourself." As if feeling guilty, Baal quickly took out a gift box from his storage space, stuffed it into Satan's hand, and then retreated. His actions angered some of the Fallen angels, who wanted to kill him for disrespecting Satan.

Satan was not angry and looked at the gift box in his hand, feeling a rare sense of interest.

So he opened it up in front of everyone.

Lucifer's fingers touched the smooth magic ball.

The next second, they stared in amazement as Satan's expression froze for the first time, his pupils shrinking as if he had seen something incredible.

Countless p*rn*gr*ph*c scenes that had occurred in Hell since the beginning of time flashed through Lucifer's mind, overwhelming him with their pollution. They vividly portrayed the demons' traditional lack of morals, limits, and shamelessness. This magic ball was more like a gift from the nine layers of Hell to Satan than a gift from a demon to Lucifer!

As we all know, even though Satan fell from Heaven, he remained chaste and had no lovers.

He was a virgin.

As the lord of Hell, he was somewhat unqualified in this regard.

Under the gaze of all the dark creatures at the banquet, Lucifer's ears turned red, and the chill that had gathered in his eyes dissipated. His perfect face radiated an unparalleled charm, making even the stars pale in comparison.

"Bang!"

The crystal magic ball fell to the ground and shattered into pieces!

The sudden sound startled the demons and Fallen Angels, making them jump. The only one who was confused was Leviathan. She bit her finger and asked in bewilderment, "Your Majesty, why is your face turning red?"

The demons and Fallen Angels collectively roared in their hearts: "Leviathan, you idiot! How could you say that out loud?"

Sure enough, Lucifer smiled and said, "What a nice gift."

The demons who knew the inside story couldn't help but shudder and step back.

Afterward, Lucifer wasn't interested in staying any longer and left promptly. If you looked closely, you would notice that the king of demons' steps were a bit unsteady. And unfortunately, everyone present had sharp eyes and saw it all.

Beelzebub muttered, "What did Baal do? Why is His Majesty blushing?"

Samael quickly regained his senses and looked disdainfully at Beelzebub, who was acting foolishly, Asmodeus, who was swallowing his saliva, Belial, who was rubbing his eyes in shock, and Leviathan, who still couldn't figure out what was going on. In order not to let his teammates lower his level, Samael walked over, picked up a piece of the shattered magic ball, and tried to investigate the cause. Unfortunately, the memory magic stored inside had already failed.

A hint of regret appeared on Samael's face. Okay, he also wanted to know what His Majesty had seen.

...

Because of this incident, Lucifer's peaceful life came to an end.

There were too many memories, and it was impossible for Lucifer to watch them all at once. Whenever he fell asleep, the remaining dirty parts would manifest in the most straightforward way, vivid and exciting. His worldview was forced to refresh, and Lucifer woke up covered in cold sweat, with a slightly sticky spot on his clothes.

The Fallen Angel attendants in the palace suddenly noticed that His Majesty seemed to be going to the bathhouse more often than usual?

Beelzebub learned about Lucifer's recent situation from the attendants and pondered for a moment before decisively going to find Samael. The two Seven Deadly Sins-level Fallen Angels beat Baal to death, forcing the tough-skinned Baal to finally cry out in pain and reveal the truth, "Isn't it just showing His Majesty something that normal demons should know!"

Beelzebub frowned, "What is it? Explain it to me clearly."

Samael had a bad feeling in his heart, and Baal's smirk confirmed it, "It's about the demons' sex lives."

Beelzebub: "..."

Samael: "..."

The next day, Beelzebub threw away his pride and ran to Lucifer's palace.

Under the guise of discussing official business, Beelzebub said with shining eyes, "Your Majesty, do you want to find a lover?" The clever and cunning Prime Minister of Hell had already discovered the problem with his boss and couldn't wait to offer himself as a pillow.

God knows how long he had been waiting for this day!

Lucifer looked up and said lazily and mercilessly, "Sure, you can choose a demon for me to sleep with in Hell."

Beelzebub was thunderstruck.

In less than half a day, the terrifying news spread throughout Hell: His Majesty, Satan, is going to open a harem!

TN:

I hope I can do this justice. It's honestly one of the best novels I've read and I thought it was such a shame that it's not translated yet. I'm not very confident because of all the biblical/demonological (?) references, but I'll absolutely try my best. If you see any translation errors, please feel free to correct me! As always, thanks for reading!
