High King

Come and read the tale of Desmond Murphy, as he recounts the story of how he went from a 25 year old office worker nobody, to the High King of Hell. Follow along as he is thrust against his will from his boring day to day office life into one of gods, magic and mystery. Stuck in a plot between Heaven and Hell, Desmond is forced to forge new relationships with demons and other unlikely mythological creatures while he struggles to understand the rules of this new world revealed to him. Will he survive Heaven’s angels that pursue his bloody end? *********** This is my first original work, please read and review if you like. Feedback is greatly appreciated! I still work a full time job, but do my best to update at least every M/F *********** Update 7/17/2022 This work is on a hiatus for a few months. My wife had twins recently, and I overestimated my available time to write. (So exhausted all the time!) so I will resume once my newly grown family gets into a new groove and the twins are old enough for me to get SOME amount of sleep again. (Hoping for early September!) Thank you to everyone supporting this novel and please note that I WILL be returning. That is a promise!

Azazel Part 3

"Ask away." Azazel's tone had become bored and lazy once more, but twice now he had piqued my curiosity of topics I'd thought to ask Lucifer before. If I missed my chance now, who knew when I would have another. 

Letting the void return to nothing, I let my hands lay idle upon my lap as I considered where to start. 

"Earlier you mentioned my 'Aura'. I've heard everyone in this room mention 'aura' at one time or another, but I'm afraid I've never had a chance to ask what it meant." The room became dreadfully silent save for the heavy breathing of Lilith sleeping beside me as my inquiry seemed to catch everyone off guard.

Theseus laughed aloud, slapping his palm to his forehead as Lucifer groaned loudly. Azazel merely raised an eyebrow curiously and I began to wonder if perhaps I had asked a stupid question.

"My Lord, have you truly been so lax in this young Wizards education?" He asked with feigned interest.
