What a delight, what an immense joy, what an exhilarating uncertainty. It is the only thing I can feel, with the mission we have been given, how will I manage to complete the task I have been given?
-Perhaps by seducing some mortals, leading them down the path of pleasure. Perhaps, but don't you think that leading them down the path of depravity would be more interesting?
I don't know, ah! The world is full of wonders and opportunities to explore-.
I pity the creator, for not being able to savor all these emotions that arise.
But that's what I'm here for, willing to start this adventure, on his behalf, so that he can experience all these things through me, that another being could be kinder and more considerate than me.
I have to start getting going so that I can enjoy all, those experiences, that will occur as I complete my task.
But before I begin I have to question the creator, what are these creatures that are endlessly stirring?
I approached him, interested in more information about these creatures. The Creator turned his attention to me, aware that I was in search of answers.
What are these creatures that are restlessly stirring? - I asked, pointing to the little ones around me.
They are manifestations of other aspects of my design, little creatures with little or no consciousness, acting on instinct. They possess powers, but only a tiny fraction compared to yours. They represent secondary aspects, - answered the Creator in a calm voice.
I reflected on the Creator's words, trying to understand the meaning of what he had said. My mind cannot help but begin to wonder about the possible uses these little beings could have if they were under my control.
How can I use them in my mission? - I asked, feeling more and more excited about the possibility of manipulating these beings.
That's up to you, - said the Creator. Each of them represents a facet of existence, and their power is unique. If you use them wisely, you can achieve whatever goal you set out to achieve.
I nod at his words, I know I must act with caution when dealing with these beings. I don't want to waste any opportunity to gain an advantage.
Then, will you allow me to take them as my assistant? - I asked eagerly.
The Creator nodded, allowing me to choose one of them as my ally.
With that in mind, I approached the little beings and chose the one that seemed to be the brightest and most valuable of them all. I watched him curiously and spoke to him gently while trying to gain his trust and persuade him to join me.
-Hello, little one, what's your name? - I asked in my most seductive voice
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
-Gold King - answered the little creature with a metallic voice.
-And what are you doing here? - I ask him softly.
-Abundance, material king - said the creature without much enthusiasm.
It fascinates me how these barely self-aware beings can follow the creator's orders.
It approached me a little closer, observed him with curiosity, and spoke to him with gentleness.
Would you like to follow me to complete the creator's mission? - I propose.
MISSION, I complete MISSION - replied the little creature with more energy in his voice.
Yes, and if you follow me I can help you to complete it while you help me in mine - I say while a mischievous smile escapes me.
You? Who? - he asks me confused.
-I am the Devil - I answer with a deeper and more authoritative voice.
The little creature looked confused for a moment, but it doesn't matter. I just need him to follow me.
Imagine what things you could accomplish if you help me to confuse the mortals, to make them surrender their energy to me on their initiative - I continued in a seductive voice.
The little creature looked thoughtful. It knew it had to be patient and let the being process the information, with its small reasoning capacity. Finally, the little being nodded its head.
I'll follow you - said the little one with determination.
I can finally let out a triumphant smile. I have achieved my goal. With this ally, I can accomplish my mission more easily and effectively.
-Excellent decision - together we will do great things.
The little creature seemed excited at the idea of working with me.
I walk away from him, and the gold king follows me without complaint, attracted by me and my presence. I feel powerful and satisfied.
I am no stranger to manipulation. I know how to persuade less conscious creatures to do my will. After all, that was one of the gifts the creator has bestowed upon me.
As I continued walking to my destination, I could observe other transformed beings recruiting beings to join their missions. But I don't think they will be as successful as I was after all I am the most cunning, the most intelligent, and the most seductive of all.
The creator watches us with interest, without intervening or judging. He doesn't seem to care what we do as long as we accomplish our mission.
It is perfect. So it means we have no limitations on what we can do.
As I contemplate my newfound free will I head into the mortal dimension.
There is a thin but tough membrane there that separates two worlds, a veil that separates reality from illusion, I touch it with my hand it feels soft but tough.
I smile to myself. A barrier that whispers temptations to me, that invites me to cross it and unleash my power.
I step away from the barrier and watch it closely, as I think about the possibilities before me.
But without access, I need a means that will give me an entrance to its dimension. I can't wait to get started.
However, I can't let impatience get the better of me. When the occasion arrives, I need to create a variety of subtle plans, so many that I leave him no choice but to give me what he needs in exchange for what I possess.
As I marvel at the greatness of my mind and all those ideas I have come up with, the opportunity appears. A call from the other side. A human spirit has tapped the tarot in search of guidance to complete his passion.
A triumphant smile escapes me.
What a lovely spirit. He is perfect. I just need to set the plan in motion and in no time I'll have him dancing in the palm of my hand.
But no regrets, little one. You're just a small stepping stone to my goal.
I am clear about my goal: to be the most powerful, the most feared, the most adored. To be the Devil.
