My Innocent Devil

Chapter 6

Thanit's pov: 

2 weeks passed without any news from Amara. 

I was thinking of heading to heaven after my probation was over but I got a notice saying I'm to stay in the human world and protect Tae until further notice. 

So at least I knew they were working on solving this issue. 

But why is it taking so long? 

2 whole months would have passed up there. 

They still haven't found anything? 

Did something happen? 

I couldn't help but get worried. 

I sent a note to Tee but didn't get any reply even. 

But I had no choice but to stay here with Tae. 

I didn't want to go against orders and Tae would also be in danger if I left him alone here.

I sighed deeply and slumped onto the couch. 

The only thing I can do is protect Tae and wait for news from them. 

I looked to my side when I felt a tug on my sleeve. 

Tae was sitting beside me looking at me with a questioning gaze. 

I smiled and ruffled his hair. 

"It's nothing you need to worry about." 

He frowned and pouted. 

I couldn't help but chuckle at his adorable sulking expression. 

"It's really nothing. Don't worry about it." 

"Then why do you look so worried?" He asked. 

I sighed in resignation. "I haven't heard from anyone from heaven for a few days now. I sent a note to one of my friends but I haven't gotten any reply." 

He blinked. 

"I'm sure they're fine. They won't get hurt so easily. But I still can't help but get anxious not knowing what is happening." I added. 

He nodded in understanding and scooted closer hugging me. 

I smiled and wrapped my arms around him as he snuggled close to my chest. 

"I hope no one gets hurt because of me..." He muttered. 

"None of this is your fault. Don't say that. It's the fault of that devil and the one who wrongfully pulled your soul into hell." I said firmly. 

He didn't say anything and just tightened his arms around me. 

I patted his head gently while rubbing his back.

Over the course of the last 2 weeks, I've gotten to know a lot of things about him.

The most important thing is that, he's really really innocent.

Like way too innocent.

I don't know how he knows nothing about anything "impure" when he spent so much time in literal hell.

He doesn't even know what the word sex means!

He knows nothing about that world!

And he even feels bad for the souls who are dragged down into hell.

He apparently cried when he saw souls of rapists, murderers, abusers (I wonder who could have been there...), and other sinners being tortured!

Like just how soft of a heart do you need to have to feel bad for such people?!
