-The jobs of the first seven brothers represents their sin
"You're still watching over their world?" the prince of envy, Leviathan asked his younger brother, Asmodeus as he glanced at the illusion his brother made in a cauldron.
"Well yes, watching over the humans do the dirty work we want them to do is such a satisfying sight to see, don't you think brother?" Asmodeus asked as he dipped his long fingers in the cauldron to mix the dissolving illusion.
"Besides, I'm just looking out for any signs of her majesty Persephone among the humans."
Leviathan glanced at the cauldron with a dead expression.
Their conversation was interrupted when their brother, Lucifer, the prince of pride, stormed inside the chamber and looked like he was in a hurry.
"We need to find her," he declared as he held the two doors with all his might.
"...and I mean as.soon.as.possible." he emphasized, the flames of hell burning in his eyes.
----***----
-In the human world-
In a world where humans and powerful deities coexist, there lived a girl named Deianira Choi who is a high school senior, and resides in the peaceful neighborhood of Seoul.
Her alarm went off uncontrollably, making her jolt up from her sleep.
"Aishh this alarm..." she sleepily mumbled to herself as she struggled to reach for the alarm that fell on the floor.
"Ya! Dal-Rae ah!!" Deianira's mom yelled from downstairs, in an attempt to wake her sleeping daughter.
"Get your lazy *** out of that bed and you're going to be late for school!" No matter how sleepy she is, she knew she'd have to drag her body out of her bed and bathe with the usual ice cold water in the morning or else she will get hit by a flying slipper by the time she gets down.
She came down to see her mother ready to scold her first thing in the morning.
"Why did you wake up so late ah? Are you reading those nonsense webtoon again?" she questioned as she smacked Deianira's head with a wooden serving spoon.
"Ow!! No, mom. I just didn't sleep properly that's all." Deianira responded, running a hand over her smack smacked head.
"That's because you're always on that damn phone!" her mother snapped.
"Come on and sit while while I prepare your breakfast."
"What do you even learn from those stupid webtoons?" she mumbled to herself as she went back to the kitchen.
While waiting for her mom to come back, Deianira can't help but glimpse at the shrine she and her mother made for her father who left them and later passed away. If she's going to take a closer look, she's a creative child when she made the shrine. It was decorated with flowers all over it and was lit with two candles at the front.
Her train of thoughts were interrupted by her mother who placed her food in front of her.
"Eomma?"
"I miss dad," she stated, eyes never leaving the shrine that she made.
"I know sweetie. I know..." her mother whispered as she sat along with daughter and hugged her.
"Is he not going to return anymore, eomoni?" she asked, barely eating her cereal.
They remained in that state for a while, until it's time for Deianira to leave for school. She then met up
with her best friend Coleen Park and walked together.
"Dal-Rae ah," Coleen called out to Deianira as they walked along with other students.
"Yeah?" Deianira asked, as she looked up from her phone and removed an earpiece from her ear.
"What are your plans after graduating?"
Deianira heaved a sigh as she looked at her best friend. "To tell you honestly, I don't know yet; but I guess I'll keep my job so that I can go to college afterwards," Unlike other kids in high school, Deianira is the type of student who only wants to enjoy their remaining school days whilst balancing school works and other extracurricular activities.
"Oh yeah that's right, your mom's a single parent," Coleen replied.
"It's not like a miracle would suddenly happen then voila! My mom finds another worthy guy," Deianira muttered as she plugged her earphones back to her ears.
Their conversation was interrupted when Beom-Seok, one of their friends, approached them.
"Heyyy~ Sorry I'm late~ What'd I miss?" he asked the two girls as he joined them.
"Beom, you're always late," Coleen commented and wrapped her arms around her best friend's arm.
"Tch. Why do you always have to point that out.." he mumbled to himself.
"Heyy Deianira~~ you're looking reaally good and pretty today.." Beom-Seok confidently declred to Deianira, who then looked at him as if he's a character in a comedy series.
His words made the two girls giggle as Deianira freed herself from her best friend's arms and scooted close to Beom-Seok and flicked his forehead.
"Ow! Dal-Rae, what the hell??" he inquired as he backed away from her while running a hand on his forehead.
"Pfft.. you're never gonna get yourself a girlfriend with that attitude, Beom. We girls like guys who aren't full of themselves," Deianira stated and resumed walking. Beom-Seok sat on the floor, feeling embarrassed and hopeless as he watched his two friends enter the school campus.
----
As the day went on, Deianira sat in class with the conversation she had with Coleen playing in her head like a broken vinyl record. What does she want to do after graduation? Is she truly satisfied with her current life with her mom? Will her dad return home? Her train of thoughts were interrupted when a paper plane landed right on her desk. Wondering who might be sending her love letters during class hours, she opened the neatly folded paper to see a note written in there, 'watch my practice match?' The note is clearly telling her that not all guys write in such a messy manner.
She looked outside the window to see Beom-Seok dressed in his Volleyball varsity uniform, with that usual idiotic smile on his face that pisses her off every time she would see him. She didn't mind if she was still in the middle of discussion, not when her classmates weren't almost listening.
As the school bell rang, students walked out of their rooms in groups, while Deianira staggered out of their classroom like a zombie.
"Hey, you good? Why are you walking like a zombie?" Coleen asked her that made her snap back to reality.
"Teacher's lesson is boooringg," she groaned as they made their way towards the gymnasium where Beom-Seok's practice match against other schools are going to happen.
"Yeah, I can tell. I mean, I guess it's understandable since midterms are almost near," Coleen replied.
By the time they arrived at the gymnasium, it was already jam-packed and the teams were already warming up; and like the usual, the front row seats were occupied by Beom-Seok's fangirls from different year levels just to see the senior ace play up close. The two girls unbotheredly chose two seats near them so that they can support their friend as well because why not?
5 minutes hasn't even passed when a girl from a juniior year got up from her seat and approached them.
"Hey! What are you two doing here?? Can't you see that this area are reserved for Beom-Seok oppa's fanclub members?" she asked in a bossy tone, much to Deianira and Coleen's surprise.
"Umm... we're sitting? And so what if this area is 'reserved' to you guys? It's not like you own this place or somethin'," Coleen calmly answered as she looked at the girl.
"Coleen-ah... she's a junior." Deianira whispered.
"If you two are not his fan girls, get out of here and go sit somwhere else!" the girl snapped and stared at them from head to toe, as if judging their appearance.
"Oh yeah we'll sit omewhere else all right!" Coleen answered back, wriggling from her best friend's grasp.
"Ya, Coleen-ah! Stop it! We can just sit somewhere else, you know." Deianira said when she managed to pull her friend away from the scene.
"We're seniors. We can't afford to get expelled at this time now, can we?"
"Yeah, I kmow. But that junior is just crappy. She walks around as if she's in our level. Tsk." Coleen muttered as she slumped in her seat.
----
The Volleyball practice match lasted for half a day, and now it's time for them to go home.
"Beom-Seok oppa!! You were so cool and handsome earlier~!"
"See you tomorrow oppa!!"
Oh great. The annoying voices of the fangirls made Deianira and Coleen glance to the direction of their friend being mobbed by his obsessive fangirls.
"Thank you all for your support! See you tomorrow!" she cringed at their friend's self-centeredness. Crap, she could even see sparkles and flower petals all around him. But hey, at least they can finally go home.
"Oppa, do you want to walk with us? It's dangerous to walk alone." one girl, the same girl who rudely pushed Deianira and Coleen away earlier at the game for sitting at the area reserved for their fanclub, asked.
Park Beom-Seok's smile is enough to make any girl faint, but for Deianira and Coleen, to always see him attract a lot of attention the same way as a person with authority would have, is not a surprising thing to see anymore.
"I'd love to, but as you must know, my friends are waiting for me." he says as he waved to his two friends watching from a distance.
With a wave goodbye, his fangirls watched in disappointment and seething envy as he jogged towards the girls who waited for him.
"Do you ever get tired of all the attention you receive? It's almost the same as a person with authority would have." Deianira inquired as she helped Beom-Seok carry his things.
"Hm? Well not really, honestly I don't even know how did I become a superstar student overnight. But yeah don't worry, I can manage studies and my sport." he answered as he puts his arms over his head.
"I wonder how.."
"Huh?" Coleen and Beom-Seok asked in unison, making Deianira shook her head and dismiss the matter.
"Nothing! I..I'm going now, guys! See you tomorrow!!" she exclaimed as she ran off to the direction of her house, leaving the two in confusion.
----------
The events that happened today replayed in Deianira's mind later that night as she prepared for bed. She can't help but wonder what is going to happen in the future.
'What is it like to have authority on a group of people? It must feel nice to experience what Beom-Seok have. Oh well, tomorrow is going to be a new day.' Deianira thought to herself before drifting off to sleep.
