Love and Hate….

A thin line existed between the two. If one wasn't careful, it was very easy to cross this line…

Such was the case for Andriel's parents. Andriel's father believed what he saw and all his love eventually faded away leaving nothing but hate. After all, he had fought the entire clan to be with her and what did she do?

On the other hand, Andriel's mother felt betrayed….she left her world for him and followed him….she believed him and yet he didn't….She lost her respect and dignity….there was nothing left for her…

She was sure to be executed, but as if showing a last bit of sympathy Andriel's father asked her to be exiled.

The light in her mother's eyes was dead when she walked out of the Angel Clan. The last words that she left to her husband before leaving was...

"I didn't do anything wrong except for falling in love with you…"

The Succubus Clan came back for her. Even though the world didn't believe her, every one of her clan members did. Because they knew themselves well. Even though the world treated them as disgusting creatures and had a premade conception of them in their minds, they obviously understood themselves well.

Even though they were indeed creatures who lived on pleasure, it was not limited to that. Love, respect and honesty were some major characteristics of this race….

The Succubus hated Angels for what happened with Andriel's mother.

As for Andriel's mother, she refused to return. She felt that she didn't have any right to return after having left of her own accord.

A month passed and Andriel's mother realised that she had been poisoned.

The two-faced Angels even though allowed her to leave alive, had secretly poisoned her.

And judging by the rate at which the poison was spreading, it was sure to kill her and the unborn child.

The Queen of Succubus, Lilith who had always kept an eye on Andriel's mother knew everything. She had always treated her as her own child and couldn't just see her in that state.

The poison was a product of the Angel Clan and the cure was sure to be found among them.

With the relationship between the Succubus and the Angel Clan, there was no way that they were going to hand the antidote to her.

Lilith approached her man, the Human God, Arkansas and asked him to help her get the antidote through negotiations.

No one knew what had happened between Arakansas and the Angels. But that guy covered the Angel Clan in blood.

When the news spread, Andriel's father rushed back to his clan from the front line only to find it in a state of grief.

In a rage, he forcefully mobilised his Dimensional power to locate Arkansas and rushed towards him.

But when he arrived there, he found Andriel's mother as well. She was going through labor in Lilith's care.

Suddenly, it all made sense to him….

And his killing intent surged, he wanted everyone of them dead.

Not only was he stabbed in the back, but even his innocent clan members were slaughtered by them. He wasn't going to be merciful any longer.

A fight was inevitable.

A terrifying battle erupted between Arkansas and Andriel's father.

Andriel's father who was a lot younger than Arkansas and hadn't matured as a dimensional seed fell short on it and suffered a defeat in the hands of Human God.

On his last breath, he didn't have anything but resentment. Knowing that he couldn't do anything to Arkansas and his wife who was being protected by Lilith, he directed it all to the child who was about to be born and casted a curse using all his power as the dimensional seed.

Curse to suffer for eternity and all alone….

As his maniacal laughter rang around, his wife walked out with the little crying child in her arms still covered in blood.

It was a little Succubus.

It wasn't possible for a mixed breed to be born among spirit races. If the parents were from two different races, the child would either take after the father's race or the mother's race.

Andriel's mother had always hoped for the child to be an angel to prove herself, but alas it wasn't like that….

Her disappointment was immeasurable….

Whether it was due to the curse or her mother's hatred towards her father. The first person to have rejected Andriel was her own mother.

Andriel's mother handed the child to Arkansas and slowly walked towards her dying husband.

It was too easy for him to die like that, the look of contentment on his face in death was unacceptable to her.

With a crazed look in her eyes, she forcefully transferred her remaining life force to him along with all her memories and committed suicide.

Andriel's father having gone through his wife's life looked at the child in disbelief before taking his last breath.

….

The child was taken back to Succubus Clan and named Andriel.

At the age of 3, she started showing signs of her being cursed.

Normally, a Succubus could only cultivate, suck or transfer life force through sexual contact. Though, there was a forbidden practice which allowed Succubus to absorb life force and transfer it without any direct contact. But it had huge drawbacks. Firstly, you can't use this absorbed life force for yourself and secondly, you would have to sacrifice your own life force every time you used this forbidden art.

But it was not the case for this succubus….Andriel could basically use this forbidden art without any drawbacks.

She was a monster who could just suck life force out of things at a thought. The only problem was, she didn't have any control over it…

At 3, her first outbreak occurred killing 3 maids and her pet.

Lilith realised it and began to take precautions.

But at 7, a simple house arrest wasn't enough for her. Her powers spread across the neighbourhood, the casualties were high.

People started to get scared of the little girl asking for her exile as she was a threat to the clan.

Afraid of another big disaster, Lilith shifted Andriel to a nearby forest land. But two years later, the forest withered. The animals died and the lakes dried….

Andriel entered her teenage years with eyes full of tears. She only had contact with Lilith and even Lilith had started to find it hard to stay around her lately. No matter how much she complained, she wasn't allowed to play with other kids and spend all her time alone.

Not to mention, she was really scared of the things around her. She couldn't understand why people around her disappeared, why her pet suddenly dropped to the ground and never stood up. Why the forest withered and animals disappeared….

The only thing accompanying the lonely and scared Andriel were her books as they didn't die….

Andriel was very fascinated with the outside world as she had seen it in the books and also dreamed of a prince taking her out of this place...but alas that was not the reality.

At 15, she was a full blown threat to the clan. Her outbreaks were disastrous and had affected the Clan's resources bringing a crisis to the clan. The farms couldn't produce food, forests were withering, the water sources were drying….she couldn't be allowed to stay anymore…

Even if Lilith wanted to protect her, she couldn't. But she was still hesitant on what to do….

But before she could do anything...Andriel disappeared.

An elder decided to get her away from the clan after seeing that the Queen couldn't get to a decision.

Andriel was fooled thinking that person was sent by Lilith and happily tagged along with him to explore the outside world.

It was exciting at first, but along half the way, the carriage suddenly stopped and the people dropped dead.

Scared once again, the girl ran away only to meet a bunch of thugs.

Life wasn't easy, some people tried to take advantage of her and later died from her outbreak. Some people were nice to her but they too followed the same path as the previous ones.

Before long, the little girl had grown up becoming a criminal with several mass murdering incidents on her head.

During this time, Lilith managed to find her but she could no longer do anything about her. Her outbreaks could no longer be something she could manage and was ultimately helpless.

Andriel also discovered her parent's story from Lilith and it kind of broke her.

She finally realised that she hadn't done anything wrong to deserve this…..

It was just….....fate playing with her....making her suffer for no reason.....

Andriel herself wasn't sure what she felt….but she moved towards the Angel Clan wanting to know about what had happened….

By this time, she was already a threat to all the major clans having killed more than a dozen of them.

Angels especially were afraid of her because of their history with her and paired up with other clans to deal with her.

They managed to capture her after a lot of sacrifices and locked her away near the border of the Nether Realm to act as a barrier and kill away all the creatures with her outbreaks.

Andriel didn't know how much time she spent locked up there without any food and water and yet she was still alive. She just couldn't die no matter what you did and on the other hand, her powers continue to rise with time...

Time passed....but, Andriel could never get used to one thing.

The Loneliness...

She had finally reached a point where death was a salvation for her and broke out of the place looking for death.

It was a disaster.

The Spirit Realm was in chaos, the clans who had taken part in the expedition to capture Andriel were the first to be slaughtered.

She was a public enemy and it was inevitable....

But death was a luxury which she couldn't afford...

Andriel knew that there was only one person who had an answer for everything in this world and could help her. Hence, she went on a journey to find him.

The Dragon of Truth...

He told her that this world didn't have any salvation for her. There was no one for her made in this world.

Andriel asked him about her parents wanting to know which one of them were right. Was she cursed because of her cheating mother or because of her untrusting father or was there something else….

But the old geezer didn't answer her leading to her enmity with the dragons.

It was as if she had made the entire world into her enemy.

Asura King, Heaven was sealed in the human realm and The Cursed Princess took his position of the Villain.

It was impossible to deal with someone who was practically an immortal. Even if they could capture her, no one knew when she would come out to raise havoc again. Killing her wasn't an option as the Dimensional Curse just wouldn't let her die and kill those around her….

The Leaders of the 12 Spirit Races continued to suppress her but could never kill her and her powers only climbed up all this while making everyone fear the future.

It was at this moment that a single human stepped up to solve the problem.

He was the Human God, Hephaestus.
