Chapter 13: a talk with Carmilla carmine
It was a another day in hell but the demons of hell were still talking about the human who is an exorcist they all wondered that if he is an angel in disguise but one sinners was interested that was Carmilla carmine she handles the weapon system in the pride ring of hell and she is one of the overlord of the pride ring.
Ever since the human appeared in hell Carmilla was honestly shocked at this anomaly but when she heard that he was an exorcist she started to get curious about this human he is his way too strong for a normal human and those black arms and that snake something doesn't feel right.
She told her daughters that if they ran into him that they should tell him that she wants to talk of course that could never happen but hell is unpredictable.
And today one of her daughters clara was being bothered by sinners who were drunk sinners don't mess with anyone relating to an overlord but drunk sinner are the ones who don't think any better.
Clara: get away from me.
Drunk sinner: aw come on babe we will give you a good time.
Clara was about to say something but a strike in the back of one of the drunken sinners they turned to see the human that became infamous in hell.
Max: honestly I there's one of other things I hate is people who disrespect woman.
Drunk sinner: do you see this fucking Clown get him
The grunts tried to get the jump on max but he easily deals with them some of them who are conscious ran away and the leader was no better Clara saw the human fought against those creatures and the knight but seeing how fast he is in person really makes an impression and when max looked at her she felt concern in his eyes.
Max: you okay those assholes didn't do anything bad did they?
Clara: n no I'm fine.
Max: you sure guys like them Can't keep there hands to themselves.
Clara: really I'm fine
Max: okay if you say so.
Max was about to walk away but Clara got out of her trance and called him out.
Clara: wait my mom wants to talk to you
Max stopped and turned in curious and a bit of caution.
Max: who is your mom?
Clara: Carmilla carmine she is an overlord.
Max did his research on Carmilla carmine apparently she runs the weapons system in the pride ring and she is actually one of the few overlord that have a heart though of course max couldn't have known
Max decided to humor this because he had nothing to do he is still on his days off thanks to verosika and blitzo hasn't call him about any jobs so what the hell
Max: okay if your mom wants to talk me lead me to her.
Clara was surprised that he actually accepted with no question well one buy still.
Clara: just like that?
Max: do you really take me for the kinda person that doesn't do his research?
Clara: I suppose so but the place is a little far away so it might take a while we might need a cap
Max: no need.
Max picked up Clara who was caught by surprise and jump towers the rooftops.
Max: just tell me where and we will be there in no time.
Clara was blushing like crazy she never had a boy carry her princess style but she shook her head and she started to give him directions and max started to parkour through buldings and Clara oddly enough felt really free and was honestly surprised on how a human is this skilled at traveling like this.
Carmilla was doing some paperwork and she was finishing her last one once she finishing she got a call from her daughter Odette
Carmilla: yes
Odette: mother I got a message from Clara and she found the human and she said he agreed to talk to you
Carmilla was surprised by this news but she composed herself.
Carmilla: thank you Odette tell your sister I said thank you.
Odette: mother actually clara just messaged me that she being bothered by drunken sinners and the human was around and helped her at least we know that he is not like the angel exorcist.
Carmilla: well I'm glad that clara is okay and that the human isn't a killer that kills indescribably anything else?
Odette: no that's all I still got some work to do bye mother.
With that Odette hung up leaving Carmilla that maybe this human isn't like those exorcists she honestly dispices them sure hell isn't supposed to be a good place but at least there are some here that are trying to do some good like lucifer's daughter but of course Carmilla wasn't sure about the rehabilitation project
But that aside she was now interested to learn more about the human boy of course.
Max and Clara walked through a hallway and Clara honestly didn't know what to say she bearly interacted with male and the only one she talked was zestial who was like a father figure to her but one that is basically her age it's pretty awkward.
Max: so your is your mother related to the famous singer Carmen?
Clara: huh?
Max: well her last name carmine kinda sounds like carmine and I've heard that she knows Spanish.
Clara: yeah but she was raised in America but she is Hispanic so she speaks more English then Spanish she just adds Spanish comments from time to time.
Max:cool so are you treated like a princess because your mom is an overlord?
Clara: not really I'm mostly left alone but sometimes things happen.
Max: I see.
Clara: so how do you do what you do?
Max: it's my little secret.
Clara: you don't trust me?
Max: we literally just met sister.
Clara: fair point but you know you are not like in the world of the living.
Max: yeah I've been there the humans there are idiots.
Clara: yeah
They stopped at a door that had the vibes of a king or queen in this case.
Clara: mother is in there don't let her character give you the wrong impression she is nice just don't get on her bad side.
Max: like I said respect woman and thet respect me back I won't say anything actually I'm one of the few that treat female with gender equally so I think I'm save from pissing off an overlord.
Clara: if you say so actually before I go can I get your phone number?
Max: are you trying to hit on me?
Clara blushed at this.
Clara: no I'm not I just want to you know talk to because you-
Clara saw how max had a devilish smile on his face and she realized that he teased her.
Clara: give Me your phone you ass
Max chuckled and gave Clara his hellphone and Clara put her phone number in it and she walked away from him but one she was still blushing.
Clara: he is pretty funny thank God he is one of the few nice people I've meet.
Max opened the doors and he saw a woman in black and white with red eyes and in sharp ballerina shoes max has seen unique weapons from blades to blunt weapons and guns but she never seen ballerina shoes that sharp and how she seems to be standing in them no problems showed how much mastery she's got.
Carmilla: well I got to say it feels kinda alien to see a human in person.
Max: is there a problem ma'am?
Carmilla: no just that it's been a while since I saw a human face and not a demon do you want anything to drink?
Max: have any non alcoholics?
Carmilla: of course.
Carmilla went to her fridge and got out some drinks and gave one to max who thanked her.
Carmilla sat down on her chair with a cup of tea in her hands and looked at max up and down she cam tell that this boy strong physically and he was well trained in armed and unarmed combat if Carmilla didn't watch the fights she wouldn't have thought much of this boy but she saw him fight those creatures and the knight who came after him and he took attacks that a normal human wouldn't have survive.
Carmilla: if you don't mind me asking what is your name?
Max: max McKnight.
Carmilla: that's an interesting name now max I wanted to talk to you about what that knight called you.
Max: exorcist? Yeah that's what I'm.
Carmilla: so you're an angel?
Max just scoffed at that.
Max: don't compare me to those bastard they kill demons because they find it fun and I have no regrets about killing the first angel I saw when I got here
Carmilla was about to take another sip of her tea but when she heard that the cup slipped in her finger tips and it was about to hit the ground but max used his black arms to make one small tendrils that caught the cup and put it in a small table near them.
Carmilla: you you killed an angel?
Max: yeah?
Camilla: this might be bad if the exorcist found out that one of them were killed there is gonna be consequences.
Max: actually that's not gonna happen.
Camilla: why is that?
Max: because heaven is more concerned on why is a human in hell and how is he so powerful?
Carmilla though about Max's words and he had a point an exorcist is dead yes but max here and those creatures made a massive impact in the system of heaven and hell so yeah him being hell gets more attention then a dead exorcist.
Carmilla: I guess your right but that means that heaven is going after you.. you know that right?
Max: well even if they tried I'm tough to kill and someone already warned me and you might be surprised that she is actually an angel.
Carmilla was once again shocked an angel was helping him?
Carmilla: why would they help you they could be tricking you.
Max: nope she is a good person and she told me that heaven itself isn't aware of the extermination and one of the high councilors that leads the extermination is keeping it a secret.
Carmilla: I see but how did you kill that exorcist.
Max: with this.
Max extended his hand and black matter wrapped his around his arm creating a black arm with clawed fingers.
Carmilla: what is that?
Max: these are my black arms I can shape shift it into anything I want via sword claws pretty much anything i want.
Carmilla: I see but how did you kill the angel?
Max: I can absorb energy whether it being vitality or energy base attacks I can absorb it.
Carmilla: so you absorbed the life out of that angel?
Max: pretty much.
Max got a notification on his hellphone and it was from blitzo saying that they have to do bodyguard duty for a bird what ever he means.
Max: hey you don't mind If I go? I kinda have work to do.
Carmilla: sure go ahead it was nice to meet you max.
Max: you too
With that max left the room and it was just Carmilla and she made got up and made a call to her daughter Clara.
Clara: yes mother
Carmilla: Clara that boy he isn't like those exorcists it might be a good idea to have him as an ally what do you think?
Clara: well he isn't a loud mouth like the vees but I think if we do something bad to him like betray his trust he will not taking it well.
Carmilla: if those are the terms I will accept call him when ever you feel like talking to him don't hurry it.
Clara: alright mother see you.
Carmilla: see you too.
