"Love slave? How is it different from you? Sofia, I know you haven't forgotten that we can feel each other's feelings. Your Lucien, that ex-boyfriend that killed you, the only reason why you revived is because you want to get rid of all the women who be by his side. You don't want any other woman to have it besides you, do you?" Jonathan smiled sinisterly. Sofia forgets that Jonathan knows all about her and the reason why she is still here over 10 years.

Since he was resurrected one year after his death, he who already had the chance to meet Lucien again chose to avoid him because of the one thing he kept secret, none other than his great love.

She continues to buy time because she is not ready to be reunited with the man she loves and the reason why she was able to come back to life after she died so many years ago. He could never find the right answer if one day he met Lucien and Lucien asked him.

This made him restless all the time while holding back a longing too great for him to endure. Lucifer resurrected him because his love was too great for Lucien, a love that destroyed him and he had to kill the man he loved.

Seeing Sofia fall silent, Jonathan knew that he had managed to turn things around. The fox girl who is known to be good at reading minds and influencing someone, is now falling into a vortex of anxiety that she has buried herself.

Jonathan could know all that because they had been close for several years, just like Lucien, it was Sofia who recruited Jonathan to join Supernova Revenge. Thus during the early years of his existence here, it was Sofia who helped him adapt and control his powers.

"You know why our relationship is strained now?" she asked. He had wanted to tell Jonathan about this for a long time. But this is the right time.

"What else if it weren't for your habit of flirting with guys and recruiting useless demons into this group."

"Yes, that's why I prefer not to care about you anymore, Jonathan! You are Baldwin, the name Jonathan is a gift from me to you and at that time you happily used it and chose to continue using that name until you forgot your real name."

"Tch, why did I use that ugly name! Sounds really unsuitable for a devil like me, doesn't it?"

"Suitable or not, it all depends on your character. You are too proud and arrogant, you are enjoying your new role as a devil too much and just like Jayden I mean Commander Lucas Ezekiel Andersen, you are just two pathetic men who thought you were immortal. Listen to me, Baldwin. We're not here to brag, but to do the one job that's why Lucifer resurrected us, and that's revenge. Just do what you're after and stop thinking you're too special to be in this world in such a short time."

Hearing Sofia's words, Jonathan smiled again. He doesn't understand why Sofia, who has been resurrected for more than 10 years, still retains her human nature. He should be the most cruel, cunning and evil than others. However, he is the most emotionally stable. This is a confusing puzzle for Jonathan, especially in the past year, Sofia seems very far from the real devil.

"I see now, there's something wrong with you and I'm sure it has something to do with Lucien." He said as he walked away leaving Sofia standing frozen in place.

He knew that even though it seemed that Jonathan had given up trying to corner him, Jonathan was attacking him mentally. Jonathan was right, there was something wrong with him and even though he knew the answer, he chose to deny it.

"No, I'll definitely be fine. Yes, everything will be fine."

"You want to talk to me?" Said Claude who had just stepped out of his room with two women who immediately rushed away after getting what they wanted.

Jonathan glanced at the two women, he didn't understand why humans who had died like them still needed women to have fun.

"I don't want to mince words, Claude. I want to explain to me about why you asked Lucien to join the group of executors?"

Claude chuckled as he puffed on his cigar. He walked over to the sofa and sat down casually. Jonathan who always looked irritated and jealous like this amused him.

"Sit down, Jonathan!" he said. Jonathan sat down reluctantly. He really expected a quick answer from Claude at this time.

"Just like you, I'm not a man who likes to mince words, Jonathan. If I'm thinking or planning something, I'd rather say it frankly than hide it. When Lucien joined Supernova Revenge and I found out how special his power was, I didn't want to buy time by continuing to let him play at the gambling tables. Yes, I want him to stay because after all gambling and casinos have something to do with the reason he was resurrected. He can never leave that world because Victor Schneider is there. The person who become the target of his revenge. But I gave him another task that he must carry out, like it or not because he is already part of Supernova Revenge. Become the executor and kill all the targets and also our enemies. That is not an easy task and can be done by anyone , I want you to understand that, Jonathan."

Jonathan was silent, though his heart still felt immense anger. He wanted to put an end to this nonsense because his hands itched so much to kill someone.

"Why don't you ask me to be part of the executors' group? Are you doubting my abilities?"

"No, I don't doubt your abilities at all. People who died with huge grudges like you, Jayden and Lucien would have enormous power too far above the sake of other demons. The group of executors that contains half-demon humans who can eliminate side of humanity when killing other people heinously.

"That's why two years is too soon for you to give him such a formidable task! Just because he has Constantine's crest and power doesn't mean he's capable! Shouldn't you test him before deciding?"

"Hahaha...Jonathan, I mean Baldwin. A devil like Lucien doesn't need to be tested. He will do it himself. You know why? It's different for us who need years to become fully devils, but not for Lucien. In a very short time quickly, the human traits within him will disappear, vanished into nothing and the demonic traits will dominate him.

Do you know how cruel the devil really is? Unlike you, he will drag many people into the great disaster and into hell. His revenge mission, only a small problem that he can solve quickly. But more than that, there's far greater things we can gain by harnessing its power."

"What's that?"

"Conquer this world and keep it in our hands."

Claude smiled like a greedy demon who had big ambitions to rule the world. Jonathan was stunned, he knew what Claude said was true. The long history of Constantine having only come once hundreds of years ago is not an uncommon thing. They didn't know how long Lucien could survive being a half-demon who still had human traits like that. Demons are far worse than demons or monsters who are rampaging, because demons are creatures that bring humans to the brink of destruction.

I understand, but I want you to recruit me as part of the executors group as well. If he can get the dual position of jockey and executor then I deserve it too.

"For now I just want you to stay in your current position, Jonathan! Not because I doubt your abilities, but because of your position as the leader of a team of five who must continuously monitor the tasks of your team members. You can't go back and forth doing many tasks , because that would just make things a mess. But if you insist, then feel free to join the executors group and relinquish your post as captain of team five. How? Are you ready to do it?"

"Relinquishing my post?"

"Yeah, you have no idea how difficult the executors' task is. It would be wrong to think that the only creatures they kill are humans. Demons like us also have enemies, Jonathan. Enemies who are very strong and want to destroy Supernova Revenge."
