Vladivostok, which is a port city, is very small compared to Moscow.
The city is synonymous with the fishing industry, as well as the entry and exit of many goods from various countries. Russia's export and import activities, the majority of which occur through the city.
The population is approximately five hundred thousand people, and they have a nature that is not so friendly to foreigners.
After getting out of the station, take a taxi,
and of course with communication constraints, Erina and the others headed straight to the local police station.
Upon arrival there he immediately reported and gave a photo of the woman who allegedly was his mother.
The police officers who saw the photo claimed to have never seen it. Then it was decided to do a search with a computer.
After a few minutes, the result appeared, which was evidently, indeed the person registered his data as a resident living in the region.
Erina, Asmodeus, Succubus, and Behemoth decide to find their place by taxi again.
The difficulty of communication is the cause of the length of time they are on the trip. Turn around in the same place, because the taxi driver did not seem to know the area around it.
At five in the afternoon, after walking for almost five hours, they arrived at a residential complex, which according to the data was the area where the mother lived.
An old house whose house looks old. Street lights are dim, the streets are damaged and full of dry leaves, and long weeds around it. The atmosphere is like not an inhabited residential area.
They headed to a security post next to the gate, the post was rotten like it was about to collapse. Inside was a security guard in his sixties.
When trying to ask permission to enter the , they were immediately expelled by the security guard. He said people here don't like strangers coming into their place, apparently the neighborhood is very closed.
But after a fairly tough discussion with the old guard, they were finally allowed to enter.
At the intersection where the street lights are already a bit dim, on the right they look a house that is quite simple, approximately sixty square meters, size, visible red brick that is not painted as the walls, weathered wooden doors, and grass that has been very long in the yard, the atmosphere looks like it has not been inhabited for decades.
Erina entered her patio area, stepped on the wooden floor which then creaked. There was a long wooden chair but it was filled with piles of dried leaves, as well as a rodent's nest inside.
He began to knock on the weathered door, which seemed to be white at first, but because it was dull and dusty now it was not clear the color.
For almost twenty minutes he kept knocking on the door, but no answer.
Everyone is also nervous.
Then from the outside, there was the sound of rusty objects spinning like an approaching wheel. Apparently a skinny old man in a wheelchair approached them.
In a weak voice the man asked,
"Are you looking for Mrs. Lily?"
the old man spoke English
"Yes yes sir, do you know where she is?"
Erina was so excited, she immediately approached the man.
"She's not here for a long time, like. ten years"
Erina flinched with that answer, She did not think that what Lucifer said was true, and she fell down.
Asmodeus approached her and hugged her.
The old man wondered why they were looking for Lily, then Asmodeus explained his situation to the old man who introduced himself as Igor.
"I know how**er for a long time, maybe I can tell You a story about her, in my house**"
The four of them agreed to join Igor's invitation to come to his house and listen to his story, because he seemed like a friendly person.
In Igor's house, more or less the shape of the house is the same as Lily's house, but rather more maintained. The lights are dim, and the stuff is quite messy, as apparently Igor lives alone after the death of his wife five years ago.
Igor prepares instant food typical of the local area that contains fish. But when Erina was about to eat it, she recalled Damien's words that reminded her of her allergy to seafood. Erina immediately offered her food to the Behemoth, which of course was gladly accepted.
Then Igor started to tell stories. How Lily was born there, she is the most beautiful woman in the residential area. He occupied the house that was once the home of his late grandfather who was Russian.
But Lily was born into a mixed family because her mother married a man from southeast Asia, and lived in a country she had not heard of for several years.
Igor and Lily are good neighbors, they often exchange food, and visit each other's house when there is an event, until when Lily moved to Indonesia, when she was twenty-four years old, either for work or whatever.
A year later, the twenty-five-year-old Lily moved back into the house, and since then her appearance has changed, always lethargic, her eyes blank and growing thinner.
Igor hears news that Lily is suffering from a rare disease, and for decades he and his wife help Lily to recover, until finally Lily's mother dies of an accident, lily has since been taken by someone claiming to be her brother, to a remote village she doesn't know her name.
And from the latest news he heard, Lily has died after being in a coma for five years. He advised Erina to end her search.
Erina cried hearing the story.
"She is a nice person, I hope s**he's in a good place now**" Igor said with a concerned face.
"Thank you Igor, I wish you had a
good fortune", reply Erina.
Igor then took the rest of the food of his guests at the table, then asked for a moment.
Igor pointed his wheelchair behind the dining room to throw away the leftovers, then headed to a dark room that did not see what it contained.
I don't know why, but Asmodeus felt that there was something suspicious about Igor.
He leaves Erina with Succubus and follows Igor to leave with a tiptoe.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Behemoth asked who was suspicious looking at Asmodeus' attitude.
"Don't be noisy, I suspect something" Asmodeus said in a whisper.
The three of them looked and felt confused.
Asmodeus walked on tiptoes so as not to make a sound. But it turns out that the path that Asmodeus is dark and long.
He headed to the damp, smelly basement. He did not expect that in such a small house there was such a large basement.
The staircase leading to the basement was apparently impassable by a wheelchair, Asmodeus was curious how Igor had passed it.
At the end of the road, he saw a large wooden door like in the old film, the door was not tightly closed, and from the inside there was a very pungent stench, asmodeus' nose until it hurts.
"Crazy arggh, what's this smell, it's like
a carcass that has been a long time" he said in a soft voice, peering at what was behind the door.
There was a burning fireplace, and in front of him was Igor, who was like he was talking facing the fireplace.
"I've managed to frame him, I don't think he's going to continue because he looks desperate. Ah, wha? of course I can't betray you"
Asmodeus heard the familiar language and voice coming out of Igor's mouth, very different from Igor's voice.
Igor stood up from his wheelchair and stretched, Asmodeus gasped at him.
Igor's form changes slowly, and it turns out it's Belphegor in disguise.
Without thinking Asmodeus entered the room and immediately confronted Belphegor, He also saw the shadow of Lucifer's face in the fireplace.
"Belphegor to*p*r*t! how dare you bother us!"
"Well, we have an expected guest"
"What are the real Igor?"
Asmodeus is furious with Belphegor who is known to be happy to disguise himself as a dead man.
"It's right there, I'm fine" Belphegor pointed towards the corner of the room.
Igor's real decayed body was seen, lying in a haystack.
"Si*l*n you!",
...Asmodeus attacked Belphegor with a punch, but Belphegor had already moved to a place attached to the sky - the sky....
"Hey where is there a demon who gets angry from being bullied? looks like you're really comfortable being a lowly creature like a human being"
"Please, I just want to finish this journey according to the agreement, it's up to you what you want",
Asmodeus tried to plead with Belphegor.
"What else are you looking for? whatever you're looking for is dead, even Lucifer could have taken the woman and exterminated her. Because the full moon is coming, just a few more days"
"I know you're lying"
"Yes, I'm lying, ahahahahaha. Enjoy your wasted time"
Belphegor just disappeared.
The fireplace was extinguished and the room darkened instantly.
Asmodeus looked up at the haystack, then decided to take Igor's body and burn it.
