Location: RAD / Student Council Room
Lucifer: Sounds like you had a nice chat.
✧
He seems reliable.
Lucifer: ...You really think so?
I would've preferred you, Lucifer.
Lucifer: You look even more worried now, huh.
✧
Diavolo: Well, if you were suddenly brought to a strange place and then get told that an unfamiliar face will now take care of you, you'd certainly feel anxious.
However, Mammon isn't the only one to help you out.
Now then...we still need to introduce our new friend to your brothers, Lucifer. And it's probably better that you do that instead of me, wouldn't you say?
Lucifer: Yes... As much as I dread the idea of doing so, you're right.
Asmodeus: Oh, come now. Really? You should be honored that you get to introduce such a sweet and charming little brother like me!
Lucifer: This one here is Asmodeus. He's the fifth eldest.
He is the Avatar of Lust.
Asmodeus: Wh...I can't believe you just totally ignored what I said! And not only that, you referred to me as this one. How rude!
Satan: Hmph. At least he didn't ignore you altogether. How do you think I feel?
Lucifer: That one there is Satan, the fourth eldest of us. At first glance, he may seem like a responsible demon with a good head on his shoulders, but looks can be deceiving.
Satan: Aha, so I'm that one, am I? Nice to meet you, MC.
I am Satan, the Avatar of Wrath.
✧
The Avatar of Lust?
Asmodeus: That's right! It pretty much sums up what I'm about!
Including my power.
Let's give a little demonstration! MC, could you gaze into my eyes for a moment?
It's okay, I won't hurt you. Come on, don't be shy...
✦
Look into his eyes.
Yes, great! That's perfect!
Now, keep your eyes fixed on mine. Just like that...
...Wait a minute. There's something about you...hmm...[1]
Asmodeus:Hmm...regardless, my power doesn't seem to work this time for some reason. I wonder why.
I'll pass, thanks.
What, you mean you don't want to? Hmph, you're no fun at all.
...
...Hold on a second. That's weird. Lucifer, are you sure there is a soul inside this body?
Lucifer: Yes. Assuming Beel hasn't devoured it already, that is.
Beelzebub: Nope, I haven't eaten any souls...yet.
✦
Satan: I should probably warn you, MC: you'd best be wary of Asmodeus's gaze.
He can charm and manipulate people and use them to his own advantage.
If you're not careful, he'll charm you. And once you're under his spell, he'll eat you.
Asmodeus: Hey, don't go around saying things like that...
The Avatar of Wrath?
Lucifer: It basically sums up what he's about.
He may flash you a pretty smile like that, but you had better be careful because it is all an act.
Satan: If you continue saying such nonsense, you'll just scare MC.
Don't take him too seriously, MC.
Lucifer enjoys speaking ill of his brothers. He is the Avatar of Pride, after all.
✧
Lucifer: *sigh* Are you done?
Now, the one there with the very grumpy look on his face is Beelzebub. He's the sixth oldest.
Beelzebub: Lucifer, I'm hungry.
Lucifer: That's too bad. Now behave yourself.
Beelzebub: I'm Beelzebub, the Avatar of Gluttony.
Lucifer: So...
There are seven of us brothers in all, and I am the eldest.
Mammon, the second oldest of us, will be here soon.
My other brothers aren't here at the moment, but...well, we can get to them later. All in good time.
Diavolo: During your stay in the Devildom, the seven brothers will lend you their strength.
To keep you safe, you are to stay with them at the House of Lamentation.
✧
To keep me safe?
Lucifer: Most agree with Diavolo, but that doesn't mean that there aren't vulgar demons out there who wouldn't harm you.
If anything were to happen to you, it would be our responsibility.
And I won't betray Diavolo's expectations.
So, I will do everything in my power to make sure you survive your stay down here in the Devildom.
The House of Lamentation?
Lucifer: Yes, it's where I live with my brothers.
It is a rather spacious house, and it was originally a cursed house in the human world.
So, I assume it won't be a problem for you—a human—to live there.
✧
Although we will all be living together, you should still have the means to reach us at any given time.
All of our phone numbers are already in there. And your D.D.D. also has a messaging app.
Make sure to add all of us.
Diavolo: I'll go ahead and send you a message!
Satan: Isn't that nice, MC. Now you will be friends with the future king of the Devildom!
