Back in Mammon’s place, she was training Farrah in her line of work. As many people would know, Mammon works as a third party between two other parties when making a transaction. Her job is to ensure that when people are making transactions, neither side will go back on their words. In her line of work, she is sponsored to keep things fair even in the underworld. Not that she lacks money.
Mammon really didn’t need any sponsors. She was already good with business and already knows how to deal in business. She can even make the stocks fall and rise to her own wishes. So why the sponsors?
The sponsors were another way of getting dirt on another person. Some people requested informations on others and thus becomes a ‘sponsor’ in which they give up something in turn for a piece of information. Sometimes, the price for just one information comes at a very big cost and usually more than what the real cost of the desired information. That, in turn becomes more informations for those who wanted to know who is after them and even they become a ‘sponsor’ because they want informations. Mammon, manipulates that information to get more profit and sponsors. That is how her business grows. It was a two for one trade. How couldn’t it grow? The only risk is if she gets caught.
But in all her life, even when she did get caught, the secret did not get out. She took care of those leaks even before it could happen. Others took the initiative in plugging up those leaks. Even Belphegor also lent a hand in taking care of those leaks and that was why her business grew so big and safely. Mammon was like the head, sponsors were like the arms and legs. Belphegor was like the invisible wings. The rest were the other body parts.
Without Belphegor, she could not have made it so far in the underworld. It was also Belphegor who suggested for her to work as a third party person. This also helped monitor the situations in the underworld and control the flow of informations.
After a long day of training Farrah and working, she went to her room and sat down to rest. Inside her room, she pulls out a diary she’d written when she was young. All memories of her childhood to now was inside of that diary. She lightly skims through the pages using her fingers until she stopped on a particularly strange section. The section had hearts and childish doodles all over the section. Looking back at the section, she smiled and closes the diary and laid it back inside her drawer.
Her eyelids felt heavy and she closed it for a period of time. Stress got to Mammon and she quickly fell asleep.
Within her dreams, she relived the moments the days when Belphegor was running rampant.
She met Belphegor a long time ago when he was still young as many of you may’ve known. The most memorable was when he was at an underground betting arena where there were many types of bets Poker and fights were a common type of bets. Age did not matter. The only thing that’d matter was the minimum money bet was a single bill no matter what the value was. A place where it was more than just betting money. Some people even bet their lives.
She saw the young poor ragged boy wearing a mask standing on the lower levels emotionless. She saw how many times he’d betted and lost. She shook her head at his foolishness. He’d lost so many bets and yet he was still going through it. ‘How idiotic. He should learn when to give up’ she thought to herself. A man who does not know when it was time to call quits was worth nothing in her eyes.
Only many hours later did he won. Her eyes scans across the crowds to see who’d won and it turned out the boy had won. From the point he won, he’d never lost any bets afterward. But she saw no satisfaction on his face. It was the look of someone who’d lost hope in the world. There was no air of excitement or disappointment. It was completely dull around him. Only at the last bet did he blow all his money away. ‘Is he an idiot? He should’ve left while he had some money. *Snort* Really. Was I mistaken to take an interest in him?’
But this scene repeated many times whenever she saw him. He would lose a little and then gain back a lot. When he was bored, he would blow all his money
One day, she was strangely interested in him and came to the underground betting arena early. On that day, she saw that he flashed ten single one bills to enter. On the very first bet, he’d placed all ten bills. ‘What an idiot! He is going to blow his money again!’ She thought. But the outcome was different. He’d won and doubled his money. Same goes for his second, third, fourth and all the way to tenth bet by betting all in. Only from the tenth bet did he started to lose. From the eleventh, twelfth to twentieth bet, he’d lost a lot of money but they were all bills that had the value of ones. His money rose and fell like the stock market until they came back to the very same value as it did when he came and walked out. Ten ones. Her face twisted into a strange look. ‘Why did he do all this just to go back to having ten ones?’ She’d thought it was just bad luck.
Only when this repeated for seven days straight did she not see this as a coincidence. It was as if he was just passing the time! ‘Is this boy out of his mind? There are so many people here, some may kidnap you or rob you and yet you chose to stay here! He is out of his mind!’
One day, she came up to the boy to confront him. He had a dull look in his eyes. It was strange because before, he looked pure and innocent. Now that look was gone. “Why are you losing so much money on purpose?”
The boy said nothing. He turns away from the girl and ignored her and walked away. Mammon ran right up to him to confront him again. “Why are you losing so much money on purpose? Do you know that the money you’ve won every day is only something most kids can only dream about?”
“Money has no value to me” He said looking innocent.
“What!?” She was shocked to hear this. “What’d you say?”
“Money has no value to me. If I win, it was because I chose to win. If I’d lost, it was because I lost interest in winning” He plainly states.
This got Mammon mad because she was taught money was important in life. “What the hell? Are you stupid?”
“…” Belphegor stopped talking after that. He didn’t answer her at all and walked out as if she didn’t mean a thing.
“!!!!!!!!” Mammon became angry because this was one of the first times in her life that she was ignored. Even by a kid no less! The audacity to give no respect to someone older or well-known was already the height of disrespect no matter what type of world it was. But how could she pick a fight with a little kid? But she couldn’t leave things as is. She left in anger after hearing the kid’s excuse.
When she came home, she asked her men to dig up dirt on him. But nothing came up. She was furious to find that they couldn’t even trail him.
Days later, the boy came back to the underground betting arena. ‘He came back to lose again. Whatever. Not like I care’ she snorts. But to her surprise, he didn’t lose once. When he left, he vanished like a ghost without a trace.
This time, he really caught her interest. So she got some of her men to follow him once more. But this time, nothing like before. They’d lost him along the way and some ran into misfortune which resulted in sprains and small injuries. He repeated this until he disappeared for a total of two weeks.
This is where the poker game came in. She didn’t know that the boy wearing the mask and the boy at the poker table was one in the same. Like how he bets before, he chose to lose a number of rounds before winning. After the poker games, he would often be threatened to stay and bet once more. But he refused and went away. Those who tried to rob him was deal mercilessly as he did when he was ten. ‘He was surely a demon’s spawn. At least he wasn’t as rude as the boy she’d met in the fight betting area.’ She thought.
Days later, a fight broke out. Throughout the underground betting arena, a lot of people were angry at how they’d lost so much money and wanted to take the money back by force. Police came and supposedly arrested those who were in the underground betting arena. Mammon was caught in the middle of the skirmish. The strangest thing was that the boy was not caught.
Mammon and many others were caught and was thrown into jail cells. Even when she was caught, her father did not save her and abandoned her. He denied that she was his daughter on all charges. She was beyond furious when she’d learned that she placed false hopes on someone she thought had a little decency in the world. It was her own fault for not realizing what type of person her father was. She was sure that her life ended there. In the middle of her sorrow, she heard screamings from inside the police stations.
It was then that the name Belphegor rang aloud. She saw the masked boy from the betting arena went and broke into multiple police stations in one night to commit crimes. Belphegor came and released thousands of criminals and innocent people back into the world and he took Mammon personally because he’d hope to use her against her father who was also a crime lord. One of the strongest and the original owner of the name Mammon. When he’d learned what he did was all for nil, Belphegor didn’t get angry. He instead, treated her a little nicer but still a hostage.
He brought Mammon to an old run down abandoned apartment after he broke her out and even made her food. But she did not appreciate the kindness. She knocked the food away dirtying all of his hard work. “There is no point in feeding me! There is no point in saving me! Leave me alone!” She screamed.
He picked up the foods, took off his mask and ate it himself right in front of her. Her stomach growled because jail food was not enough to satisfy her. The portions were too small and the food he made looked too good even if it was a little dirty. Now, she regretted not accepting the food.
“Tell me woman. What’s your name” Belphegor asked coldly.
“Why should I tell a snot nose brat like you anything!?” She snorts angrily.
“Because, if you do, I’ll give you something you’d want” He said plainly.
“*Pfft* Yeah. Right. If you can get revenge for me, then I’ll accept” she said sarcastically.
“… I may not be as strong as others but I do have my ways.” Belphegor hinted that he could get her revenge.
Mammon’s eyes shifted away in disbelief and decided not to pay attention to him anymore.
“Do you really want to die that badly?” Belphegor cocked his head.
She didn’t answer.
“Are you going to die before you get your revenge?” He ask once more. But she said nothing to ignore him. “Anyhow, don’t even think of escaping. There are many people running around and they would definitely like a woman like you to be their meal”
The words made a cold chill run up her spine. She turns angrily at him and glared. But what she saw was the innocent kid she’d seen at the poker table. Not the cold masked boy. Her eyes widen at the contrasting sight. Slowly, she saw that he got up, puts his mask back on and left. An entire day passed and she saw that there were many police cars running around and all she could do was to stay until nightfall.
Night fall came and the boy came back with more provisions. He tossed the provisions towards Mammon. Inside, she saw that other than food, he gave her a fresh set of clothing, a bag with three blankets inside and even some daily necessities. The boy carried a notebook. He ripped out a page and wrote on it. Once he was done writing on it, he threw it over for her to read. When she didn’t read, he would do it multiple time until he got bored and started to doodle on the book. Only when she felt like she was bored that she picked up a piece of paper and read what was inside.
On one paper, it reads, “Inside, you’ll find your daily necessities. It can last you three days. Within these three days, I can help you get your revenge. I’ve everything prepared. The real question is, ‘do you wish to go through with it?’ reply back in any way, shape or form”
Mammon thought it was a joke. Someone so young to get revenge? That was laughable. Mammon took the paper, balled it up, and threw it right back in his face. That got his attention.
The boy calmly asked, “What is your answer?”
She kept on throwing paper balls at his head in anger as her answer.
Things got repetitive. Belphegor kept on asking the same question and she kept throwing the ball at his head. Even Belphegor had his limits and used his book to smack away the paper balls.
She finally stopped when she ran out of paper balls. The air was still and not one side spoke a word. Other than eating and doing bathroom business, neither of the two side came in contact. An entire day passed like this.
The next day came and went. Belphegor wrote, “You got two days to decide. Hurry up woman” and she kept tossing the paper balls in anger. This was how it was for the second day.
On the third day, Belphegor wrote, “This is your last chance. You either take it or leave with no way of getting revenge. I’ll be back to hear your answer” and left the abandoned apartment. She didn’t read the paper until night came. Thinking that he was being absurd, she got the provisions was about to leave until she heard footsteps going up the apartment building heading in her direction. At first, she thought it was the boy. But she was wrong. Up the stairs were a bunch of homeless hungry people looking for a place to stay for the night. One of the homeless men eyes locked with her eyes and lust began to spark. A horde of homeless people came in and saw fresh meat. They were excited to see such a refine girl in an abandoned apartment.
She could hear one evilly whisper to another person, “Hey. Think we can sell her for some money?”
She ran to lock the doors thinking it was safe. Again. Wrong. Seeing that the door was old and cracked, it was about to break down at any moment. She ran to find other places to hide but none had working locks. They broke through the door was about to bum-rush her.
Mammon took the initiative and ran right to the windows. “Stop! I’ll jump!” She threatens. But it didn’t work. They came with the force of a thousand bulls. All eight of them.
Mammon got up the window hoping to climb down from the second floor. The ledges of the windows were connected to each other so it was easy to get outside of the window. The harder part was to get down. One of the homeless reached for her legs and almost caught it but lacked energy to reach all the way. They only grabbed her bag and created a little tear in the bag.
“H-hey look! Food!!!! The woman got food!!!” One of the homeless men caught the sight of food and his energy sky rocketed. So were all the other homeless and hungry people. Only the purely horny got their energy by looking at her ass so it didn’t matter if there was food or not.
Mammon moved a little faster to get away from those hungry hands. The hobos didn’t want to let their prey go. One by one, they climbed out as well.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
They eventually caught and dragged her back into the abandoned apartment and slammed her into the ground. She was being man handled for all it was worth. They didn’t even stop to take off her clothes and all.
A man whipped out his flaccid dong and stuck it in her mouth. He moves in a piston motion in and out of her warm mouth.
One really had to feel sorry for Mammon. The thing didn’t even smelled like it was washed for weeks. ‘!!!! Ah!!!!!’ She inwardly screams. She was about to bite it off until another man threatens her to rob her of her virginity and kill her afterwards if she did.
She couldn’t do anything. She didn’t want to die. She still had so many things left to do. She still wanted to get vengeance on her father who disowned her. But here she is, getting violated through the mouth.
“mmmmmhhhhh!!!!!!” She muffly screams for help. But everything looked done for her. She was about to be some toy for some unwashed, old hobo’s wang!
“Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Three voices resounded from the back. Everyone turned around to see what the commotion was but all they saw was three dead people and a dark shadow flickering before them.
*slish*slish*slish* A blade dances through the air killing three more and only two were left.
The remaining two hobos immediately stood up and used Mammon as hostage. “Get back! Or else we will kill the girl!” The man who still had his shaft hanging out screamed. The second hobo refocused his eyes to see that the figure was not even a tall one. But it dressed in all black and couched down on all fours almost like a beast in the shadows but with blades in both hands.
The shadow then stood up and glared at them with a pair of bloodlust eyes.
“Back off or we will kill the girl!” The second hobo demanded the shadow to go away.
The shadow snorted. “*Humph!*Kill her then!”
“WHAT!?” Their eyes widen. He didn’t even care if they had a hostage!
“That girl has no relations to me what so ever. But I’ll tell you now. If you kill her, I’ll make your deaths worse. She is my prey. If you let her go before the count of ten, I’ll let both of you two go. I’ll give you to the count of twenty and then I’ll kill all three of you.” The shadow spoke coldly.
The two hobos became frantic. They didn’t expect for her to be more of dead weight.
“One” The shadow raised one of the hand.
“*Glup* What do we do?” the half-naked one whispers.
“Two” The shadow flips the blade around.
“Should we let her go? I don’t want to die” The second hobo whispers back.
“Ten” The shadow threw the blade and immediately killed the second hobo. “I forgot to tell you, I don’t know how to count.”
“Wh-wh-wha-wait!!!” The half-naked hobo screamed.
“Eleven” the shadow raised the other hand. “I don’t have to wait. I can kill you or the girl next. It doesn’t matter. Just that if you kill the girl now, I can deal with you faster and torture you a little longer. If you let her go, I’ll give you a chance to survive.”
The half-naked hobo instantly let go of the girl and ran forward with his junk hanging out.
*slish!*
‘Slish?’ The half-naked hobo couldn’t believe it. The shadow already appeared in front of him cutting of his male genitalia.
“Nineteen.” The shadow growled.
The hobo didn’t even need another warning. He kept running and running using every ounce of strength to survive.
*Woosh*Thup*Thud!*
“Twenty” the shadow mercilessly killed the half-naked hobo. No signs of hesitations was shown when he killed people either. The air was filled with a bone-chilling aura. But that didn’t end there. The shadow took the fallen piece of junk and shoved it down the half-naked hobo’s throat. “I heard the brain is still active even after death. Let’s see if that is true.”
Mammon, seeing the cruelty before her, lost all strength. Never in her life would she see something so vile in her life. Never would she believe something so twisted could exist before her. Sure she commanded people to torture others before, but she never saw a torture and killing so pure. It so up close and personal as well.
The shadow slowly moves towards Mammon. Before her, Mammon thought she’d seen the devil himself.
“Have you decided yet?” The shadow coldly asks.
“Huh?” She was confused. Decide what?
Only when he got close enough for the moon’s beam to shine down on the shadow did she realize what he meant. It was the same boy who offered revenge against her father.
“*Sigh* Woman. If you accept, we can still make it in time for your revenge. If not, we would have to wait for another week. Hurry up and decide. I don’t have an entire life time you know!” The boy demanded an answer from Mammon.
“I…” She was nervous because it was not a boy in front of her. No. Not anymore. It was a devil. She was making a deal with a living demon from hell. But the deal was like a double edge sword. Once in it, she couldn’t get out of it.
“Hm?” the boy raised an eyebrow.
“I accept!” She hurriedly answered.
“Good. I’ll need payment by the end of this revenge” He gave a slight nod.
Mammon, hearing the word payment naturally freaked out because she had nothing. “Pay!? Pay with what? I don’t have anything!”
The shadow shrugged as if it didn’t mean a thing. “I’ll take up front fees then”
“B-but… I don’t have anything on me….” She was about to cry. Ever since the half-naked hobo stuck his rod inside her throat and used it like a toy, she couldn’t think straight. Her mind degraded when she saw his cruelty and remembered that she continuously ticked him off with the paper balls.
“You still have your body right?” he suggested.
“!!! You can’t be serious!” She protested.
“I AM SERIOUS! I AM NOT A CHARITY WORKER! I DO THINGS BECAUSE THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT THAT YOU HAVE! WHAT I WANT IS YOUR BODY! IF YOU AREN’T THAT COMMITED TO GETTING YOUR REVENGE THEN I’LL LEAVE THINGS HERE AS IS!” his voice boomed scaring Mammon half way to death.
Her heart sank when she heard that he wanted her body. But she’d never done it with another man! This was her first time. But she understood his words clearly. Economy is what makes the market go around. People need things from others and thus trade was an important asset in everyday lives.
Mammon bit her lips and caved in. “I’ll give it to you…”
“Sorry. Didn’t hear that.” Belphegor didn’t let her off that easily.
“I’ll give you my body!” She screams out loud.
The boy smiled wickedly and walked up to her.
Mammon didn’t even resist. She laid back and spreads her legs to him. Tears formed on the corner of her eyes and muffled cries leaked out. ‘I’m giving up my body to someone younger than me*Sob*Sob*’
The boy got on all fours and went down on her. She could feel his body temperature emanating from all of his muscles. She turned her head away from the boy’s face. But that didn’t work. He pulls her to face him once more.
“You passed.” He told her.
Once she heard this, her face changed into an expression of surprise.
“I was only checking your resolve. There are times when situations like these can come and when it comes to getting revenge as deep as yours, I wanted to make sure that you are just as resolved and strong as your vengeance” the boy coolly said.
“B-but then…” her face was in horror. He was only testing her the entire time!
“I won’t take your first time lady. I’m evil but I still have my prides you know. But I will take something from you if you don’t mind” The boy smirked.
The devil has pride? She couldn’t believe her ears when she heard this. What he showed was zero pride in promise. But now he talks about pride. It was almost a joke!
“Eh?” Her eyes widen when she saw that he stole a kiss from her lips. He even took it a step further. This was where he practiced his french kissing.
Mammon kissed many men in the past. All from rough to soft and of every variety including french kissing. She could tell that he was a novice at kissing. But it didn’t feel like a novice’s kiss. It felt too good to be some novice kiss. But yet it still had those flaws for first time kissers!
When he broke away, he told her, “While we are working, you are mine. You are my toy to be used and abused. If I break you, you will break. If I bend you, you will listen and bend. There are no two ways about it. Only until after this deal is over will you regain your freedom. But until then, you are mine and no one else’s. Got that!?”
She had a strange smile on her face. The smile of submission to another person. The joy of being his property. Never have ever felt so good submitting to another person as she did right now. She nodded and did not say another word.
“Alright then. Now I gotta wash my mouth. HARGGGGGGGGHH” The boy ran straight to the bathroom. He went in and barfed in the sink when he remembered that she had another man’s unwashed dirty flaccid dong in her mouth.
When she remembered, she too went to the bathroom to throw up but in the bath tub. When the two were done, they had a smirk on each other faces. It was hilarious because he unconditionally kissed her even when her mouth was violated.
“My name is Belphegor. What’s your name?” He asked her.
“Huh!? You’re Belphegor?” she was shocked to find out who the boy was.
“What’s wrong with the name Belphegor?” He frowned.
“Nothing. Just that I thought Belphegor was much older…” She’d heard from the rumors was more of a titan. “I also heard he got a big… you know… down there.”
Belphegor shifted his face away. “… I don’t know who is impersonating me. But I’ll get them myself. Aside from that, tell me your name”
Mammon looked dejected when Belphegor mentioned the word name. “I…don’t have a name anymore…”
“Just because you were disowned by your father? Then I’ll give you a name” Belphegor didn’t even see the problem. He ignored the big family issue and went on with business.
“!!! How could you be so insensitive to a girl’s feeling” Mammon was shocked to see such an ignorant person.
“I’ll just call you Emmelline.” He ignored her.
“!!! What kind of name is that!? What does it even mean!?” She never heard of this name before which is why she was worried for his naming sense.
“… It means wonderful woman… woman.” He said plainly.
“You’re making that up!” she didn’t even know if it was true.
“*Sigh*… Don’t care. I’ll just call you Lin.” He didn’t care anymore. He just wanted the name short, simple, and easy on both his mouth and ears. “By the way, I don’t know what your father named you, but the name Lin means beautiful jade.” Belphegor waved off and disappeared into the night.
It was from that moment did he made his name known. He always wore that Belphegor mask whenever he was in the underworld and never showed his face from that moment forward. Not the best way, but it still worked out in the end.
Only later did she found out that most of the police were fakes. They were part of an underground organization by both the government and a bunch of crime lords. Their goal was actually to fake a grand capture of those who were involved in illegal betting. This would give great publicity for the police and slowly let the world trust the police again. It would also stir things up for criminals to be more active.
She’d also found out that her father set her up to be caught to increase publicity. She did get her revenge in the end but it was mostly Belphegor getting revenge for her. He said that, “A girl’s hands should sometimes be kept clean from some certain dirt. Things like this are left for people like me.” Mostly it was because he didn’t want her to kill her own family member. Secondly, he wanted her hands to be free of whatever her father had on her.
Mammon reopens her eyes to see that it was night time and was also time to close up. Her eyes shifts to the window seeing a crescent moon hanging up in the sky. She softly smiles when she remembered when she unconsciously submitted to him.
At that time, she held no real love interest in men. But Belphegor caught her attention in the most interesting way possible and it didn’t seem that bad now. She was a lot older than him. By six years to be exact. So when he was twelve back then, she was already entered woman hood.
When Belphegor left, she went through multiple relationships and found that none of them was good. She even gave up her first time to a man she thought she love. But he didn’t satisfy her the way Belphegor did. All the man did was forcibly knocked her up, kiss for a while, and then left when he felt satisfied. He even went as far to go for another woman. His ending was sad though once she found out.
Thinking back, she might’ve felt some love from Belphegor. Though he was young, a mostly silent attitude and an overbearing personality when he was around her doing business, she felt like he meant so much more than all of her past lovers.
“Miss Mammon?” Farrah called out.
“… *sigh*… What is it?” Mammon closed her eyes and sighed.
“Master Belphegor is here” Farrah points to the man next to her.
He was standing tall while smiling sweetly. "Hey there Lin. How's it going?
