Ch. 1- The Deal With The Devil

Thanks Kagamiin for proofreading! You're awesome <3

----------------------------------------

After falling asleep, the boy once again entered the dark abyss he was trapped in before. He looked around, trying to find out what happened. Unlike before, he was able to move, and somehow walk.

‘Was the light an illusion? What about the voice I heard? Could all of it have been….?’

Suddenly, the boy heard a voice from behind him slowly whisper into his ear.

Mysterious Voice: “Hahaha, no child. All you have experienced is real. Were you worried you lost your sanity even more than you already have?”

The boy turned around and saw nothing. The voice whispered into his ear again.

Mysterious Voice: “You missed me boy.”

The boy quickly turned around and faced a beautiful woman. Words couldn’t even begin to explain her beauty. She stood at a height of around 4’9 with white hair, red eyes, and most mysteriously, black wings and a pointed tail. A black tattoo covered a small portion of her face, and from what he could see it went to cover the area around her back. Sadly he couldn’t tell for sure as she was wearing a beautiful black dress, only going down far enough to expose the secrets that hid between her supple white legs.

Boy: “Who the hell are you?! What do you want from me?!

The boy suddenly felt a crazy amount of bloodlust leak from the woman. The pressure was so strong he instantly fell over.

Woman: “Boy, that’s no way to treat your elders. Do you want to die again?”

The woman stared at him, her blood red eyes glowing. She was annoyed, and the bloodlust she directed at the young boy was enough to give a grown man a heart attack. But what the boy did next surprised her.

Slowly, the boy was able to stand, and he stated something that was never told to the woman in all her years of existence.

Boy: “Fucking whore. You’re pissing me the fuck off. What the hell do you want you bitch?”

The woman looked at the boy with surprise on her face. After a few moments, the woman started to laugh.

Woman: “Mwahahahaha! Just what I expected from the man I’ve chosen, I can’t wait to see what you look like after you’ve grown, as your soul ended up even more corrupted than I thought. But that’s perfectly fine, because men are better that way.”

After licking her lips, she continued.

Woman: “I believe I have yet to introduce myself. People know me as the Lord of the Underworld, The Leader of Hell, Lucifer, Satan, my nicknames are endless. But my true name, human, is Angel.”

The boy stared at her for a few seconds. After that, he couldn’t control himself and exclaimed.

Boy: “Oh god, what the fuck? Hahaha the fucking devil is named Angel. Oh the irony in this.”

Angel, now pissed off more than ever before, let out all of her bloodlust onto the boy. But to her dismay, nothing happened, and the boy kept on laughing until he had problem breathing.

Angel: “Don’t mock the name of one of the Gods! You damn human, do you want to suffer from my wrath?!”

The boy stared at her for a few seconds. Was he supposed to take her seriously? The so-called “Devil” had her cheeks turn red from the embarrassment she just suffered. Rather than the devil, she seemed more like a child who had her favorite toy taken away from her.

The boy, not wasting wanting to waste any more time than necessary, decided to get to the point.

Boy: “So, what does the almighty Lord of Hell, Angel, want from someone as lowly as me to make her appear to my unworthy self?”

Angel, not expecting such a complement, ended up turning even redder than before. After taking a few moments to compose herself, she stated

Angel: “Human, I have chosen you as my champion! Feel worthy that one such as me shall bless you with the power to rule the world and kill the gods! Nobody will stand in your way, and you will be herald as the Champion of Death from this moment forth!”

The boy looked at her, and without hesitation said

Boy: ” No thanks. Can I go back now?”

‘...’

‘...’

The two beings just stared at each other. Angel was looking at the boy with confusion on her face. Why did he decline the offer? She could give him the power to rule the world. Anything he wanted, he could get by using the powers she could give him. And he refuses the offer without even thinking of it? What kind of human did he turn into during those long, cruel months of solitude he was stuck in while waiting for his birth? Did she end up breaking him even more than she thought?

During this time, the boy stared at the devil with a blank look on his face. Even though he just declined becoming the most powerful being on earth, his thoughts were allot…. well…. how should it be said…..

‘So, Ive been reincarnated. Didn’t expect that. So does this mean I get to drink breast milk? I wonder if I’ll get horny drinking it. It’ll be hard if my so-called “Mom” notices me getting a stiffy while feeding me. That’ll be an interesting story to hear when I’m all grown up'

Angel looked at the boy, wondering what he was thinking. She tried breaking into his mind to control him, but surprisingly she couldn’t even enter. What human has the potential to have thoughts so complex that even the devil herself couldn’t break through?

Angel finally decided to end the silence between them.

Angel: “Why do you not want the powers I can bestow upon you? What makes you want to decline such a great honor?”

Boy: “It’s simple really. I don’t know you so I can’t trust you. Obviously if you know of my past, you can understand why I think like this.”

After listening to his statement, she looked at the human. Without a doubt, he was the most interesting being she had seen in all of her years of existence. She couldn’t figure out why but… she wanted to watch this human, the way he grows, the choices he makes…. everything. She hadn’t felt like this since the hero who had slain the first demon lord. She watched him from afar for years without him noticing. By the time she was going to make her move on him, he ended up getting married to the healer in his party. She wasn’t going to let another chance slip away from her.

Angel: “How about this boy. We will sign a Devil Contract, that way there is no possible way for me to betray you. You can even write out the contract, and I shall sign it. Does this seem fair to you?”

The boy looked at her from head to toe, and decided.

Boy: “That works for me. Just give me something to write with and write on, and lets get this over with quickly.”

After Angel conjured up a quill and some parchment, the boy got down onto the black floor and started writing. Once he was finished, he handed it back and said

Boy: “Sign it fast, I’m annoyed as it is. If I have to stay here any longer, my brain will explode.”

Angel quickly signed the paper, not wanting to displease the boy. She spent months and almost all of her magical power making the perfect body while the boy was still in the womb of his parents, and she didn’t want all of her hard work to go to waste. It would take a few years to recover that much magical power, and she still believed she could control the boy later in the future when his trust grew in her. By then, he would be a simple puppet who would destroy the Gods for her.

As soon as she finished her signature a glowing light formed around her neck, and slowly faded away to reveal a black choker with a small heart on it.

Angel: “WHAT IS THIS?! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME YOU WORTHLESS HUMAN?!”

The boy went over to her, picked up the parchment, and while laughing said

Boy: “Take a good look. A REAL good look.”

Angel picked up the paper and had a look at what it stated, much to her dismay….

This contract states the the one known as Angel the Devil, will unconditionally help the person who was formerly known as Zio Tadn in any way possible. Angel will also serve as the pet of the person formerly known as Zio Tadn, and will obey his every command. no matter what it is.

Signed, Angel Xiovel
