Duke Geraldine approached her son who was sitting on a chair crying.
"Lily, don't cry, son. You didn't manage to cry for the noble crown prince. The man who hurt your heart."
"Dad.please don't provoke me. I'm sure, Your Majesty has a reason why he cut off ties with me." Liliana continues to defend Max, who is now a stranger, not her husband.
"Whatever the reason, she shouldn't have hurt Lily's heart! He betrayed my trust in him, to keep you and always make you happy. He denies it and I can't forgive him. Whatever the reason!!"
"Dad..." Liliana looked at her father who looked angry. The girl wiped the tears on her own cheek.
"Dad will not accept his highness the crown prince to be father's son-in-law again, if someday he asks me back to him." Duke Geraldine is heartbroken. Too deep is Max's cut to Liliana, though she knows why Max did it. Max shouldn't have divorced Liliana.
They can go through it together. But the crown prince chose his own path. He hurt Lily.
When Liliana was busy treating the wounded and helping the people. Max, the King and Duke Geraldine return to the battlefield that is still ongoing.
Being in a troubled heart, Max strives to strengthen himself against his own brother. Max's power increased a lot after he gained half the King's power.
Before a duel with his brother, Max talked to the high priest and the King. "Your Majesty, you should know something about the Demon King."
"Whatis that? Say it!"
"Devil is a creature of God's creation as well, he will not perish until the end of time. Just like humans, their lives will end on the day of the apocalypse. So, your majesty won't be able to exterminate it." the grand priest explained to Max.
"Then, what should I do to stop him if I can't exterminate him?" Max asked with a frown.
"You can seal it. Crown Prince, I have something that might help you." The king suddenly remembered something.
"What's that?"
The king handed Max a small white gem. The king got the jewel from Brietta. And Brietta says that the gem could help her seal Lucifer. Max understands that he will try his best to seal Lucifer even if he is to be destroyed with Lucifer.
Max meets Lucifer alone in the middle of a ruined city in the middle of nowhere. He took his twin brother on a duel.
"Lucifer, before I destroy you. I'll give you a choice! Give up and go back to where you came from, or I'll drive you out of here myself." Max was very strict with his brother.
"It's so arrogant of you. Just a lowly human, dare to negotiate with me?" Lucifer underestimated Max.
"You forgot that? I'm not just an ordinary human being, inside my body is flowing your blood as well. My nickname is the battlefield demon....."
Max attacks Lucifer with fire inside his body. He made Lucifer fall by the fire. Lucifer snorted angrily, he fought back against Max's attack.
"You will lose to me, your honorable crown prince! Humans are human and they will remain weak!!" Lucifer smiled grinningly, his hand still attacking Max with his demonic power.
Black wings and red horns appeared on his body, making Lucifer even stronger. He made the sky rain with blood.
Everyone in the kingdom was panicking with the rain of blood that occurred in the early hours of that day. The sky was still pitch black by the dark forces of Lucifer.
"I will not let you men of the sun rise again! Live in the dark forever.. Ahaha.." Lucifer laughed out loud around him.
Max's eyes turned red and lit up, he directed the utmost force to attack Lucifer, "No, Lucifer. You're the one who won't come out again! Destroy you, damned demon!"
The two strong men and the brothers fought each other for strength. The king and the others saw the fierce fight.
Liliana also looked at the fight from afar. He can only pray that Max is okay and can defeat Lucifer.
A bright light was in the middle of that fight that came out of nowhere. Max's body was full of injuries, his hand that was used to use magic was also burnt. His face was full of sweat as his strength was already almost drained away.
Inside the light appeared a beautiful woman with long, blonde hair. The beautiful woman had blue eyes. "Maximilian my son.." the woman called Max, her lips smiling faintly.
The deg!
Lucifer and Max gasped in shock at the beautiful woman's voice. He looked at Max affectionately.
Lucifer was astonished to see the figure of the woman who was in the light. The woman next to Max.
"Mother..." Max called the beautiful woman by the name of mother. She looked at him with teary eyes.
Mum?. Lucifer's inner being hurt. She never felt the love of a mother.
Rosabella?. The King was surprised to see the figure of his first wife who was gone. Her tears are flowing.
"Maximilian. I'll help you" Rosabella whispered to Max.
Rosabella's spirit approached Lucifer, the woman smiled and grabbed Lucifer's cheek. The devil's eyes widened to look at Rosabella. "How's my son?" rosabella's asking is full of gentleness.
Lucifer's hand slowly drooped, he was helpless in front of the woman's tenderness. "Will you come with me?"
"You..." Lucifer was stunned to see Rosabella.
"We've never met before, have we?" rosabella asked with a smile.
The shame!
Lucifer refocused and counter-attacked Max with the greatest force accompanied by fury. "Suck!!"
"No!" Shouted Liliana, the King was astonished to see the red light approaching Max.
Wushhh~~
The king stood in front and protected Max with his body. "Dad!!" the king was in the lap of his father.
"Maximilian!" Liliana couldn't stand it anymore, she ran from the hiding place and walked over to Max.
The king told Max to seal it now. "Okay dad, I'm waiting here." said Max, laying his father on the ground. He re-sealed Lucifer aided by the high priest.
The King lay helpless, half of his body already reduced to ashes. Just his upper body. "Rossabella.."
"Your highness.." Rosabella's spirit looked at the King and sat beside him who was dying.
"Rosabella. Did you come here to pick me up?" the king asked with tears on his cheeks.
Rosabella only smiled gently, she held the King's hand tightly.
"Bring me with you.. Rose.." - The king said to the non-human woman.
Liliana and Duke Geraldine were near the King, and they were sitting next to the King. "Her Majesty the King!"
"Crown princess, are you here?" The king held Liliana's hand.
"Your majesty!" Duke Geraldine was anxious to see the King's condition.
"Your majesty, I will call a healer to help you" Liliana said as she stood up. But the King held his hand.
"No. Don't go, my time is near. I need you to listen to me carefully,"
"Yes your highness.."
"Crown princess.." The King called Liliana.
"I'm not the crown princess anymore, your majesty." - The woman's heart was neither the crown princess nor Maximilian's wife. She is Liliana Eissa Geraldine.
"I beg you, after I'm gone, please take care of my son. You're the only one who can control Maximilian, he loves you. That kid he didn't mean to hurt you. Please take good care of her, take care of Laura and the kstaria from the Queen. I want my first granddaughter to be born safely, please help me make her crown princess" the King asked as he looked at Liliana in hope.
Liliana and Duke Geraldine gasped in shock at hearing that. The king finds out that Laura is pregnant and he wants to be with Eugene.
On the other hand, Max has managed to seal Lucifer inside the white gemstone. Until the gemstone turns red. "Your majesty, you should keep this well."
"Great priest, I can't keep it. You better keep it, I'll leave this gemstone to you" Max said, handing the first stone to the high priest.
"I will accept the glorious edict" replied the great priest while keeping the small gemstone in his pocket.
The sky was clear, it was morning. The sun was shining again to welcome a new day in the kingdom. The demons disappeared along with Lucifer's disappearance. It's all over.
Then Max approached the dying King. Before the king closed his eyes, he put together Liliana and Max's hands without saying a word.
The king has left this world. His body was taken to the palace. Max looks sad because his father died to save him. Liliana was still in the palace because she planned to run the King's mandate.
Everyone doesn't know that Liliana and Max are divorced. After the divorce, Max and Liliana's relationship grew cold. "Lily, thank you for helping me."
"Your Majesty don't misunderstand me, I'm not helping you. I only run the mandate of the late King. After this I will leave the palace immediately" Liliana said in formal language, without looking at Max.
"Crown princess why are you like this?"
"Your majesty, please don't throw questions at me like this. Because you already know the answer." Liliana still lowered her head in front of Max.
"Liliana's..."
"Don't call me that. Because my heart is hurt, when you call my name." Liliana said with a bitter smile. The woman was wearing all black, of course because it was the day of the King's funeral.
A day of mourning for all the people of the Istvan kingdom who lost their King, lost their families.
"Your Majesty, everyone is waiting for you." Said Eugene while lowering his head. He glanced at Liliana who looked sad.
He said the crown prince and crown princess are divorced. Then what should I call the crown princess?
"You're hurt, it's not good to move a lot. I'll be there soon, crown princess. Come on.." when Max will hold Liliana's hand.
The woman dodged, her face looking cold. "I can walk alone, your majesty."
