A boy sat on a bench watching his younger brother play in the jungle gym. He doesn't remember… The boy's 18th birthday was just yesterday, and it was surprising to say the least.

He sat there watching his younger brother play. No care in the world, just being a typical 11 year old boy. The kid ran up the slide, despite not being supposed to, and just general kid things. At this, the young man sat there with his head in his hands.

It had hit him like a freight train. He was the reincarnation of Cain.

What a joke. Forever forced to relive his life, always with a younger sibling, one who was apparently spared the memories of being Abel. Maybe it's for the best… It had been hundreds of life spans now, he had lived with guilt over what had happened to his younger brother. No, not happened. What I did…

The man didn't know what to do. In all his lives, he just got by, moved out left the family behind. Of course the younger brother would call, or visit. It hurt him to see his younger sibling, in every life time.

This is all your fault… if you're omnipotent, then you knew this would happen, you let this happen. It's your fault too…

He was busy paying attention to the young boy that he didn't notice when a young girl offered him a leaflet.

"Make your wishes come true!" She smiled cheerily and left.

As he saw the pastel leaflet, he could identify one of the oldest summoning rituals.

"Tomo! Come on, we're going home!"

The little boy jumped up from the sandbox he was currently playing and ran after his brother. When the brother tried to grab his elder brother's hand, the older brother refused.

"Grow up." He heard his brother mutter.

"We're home." The little boy ran to his parents in the living room, while the older brother walked up the stairs of his two story house.

There he sat at his desk and pulled out the leaflet. He grabbed some paper, and drew out the summoning spell. With some concentration, he focused magic into the paper, and it glowed.

"Interesting." The young teen smiled wickedly and chuckled lightly. "It seems that despite being in a new body, not only do I have all my memories, but I have my skills as well."

He wasn't as athletic anymore, but after the third life, he had stopped working on that. He focused only on knowledge from that point on, for with knowledge, came power, and that's what he needed if he was going to take over this world, and achieve his revenge over God, but not just any God, the one above all, YHVW.

That night he mediated in his room till the family he was staying with fell asleep. Once he could feel their aura's had diminished, he opened his eyes and got to work. He walked over to his desk and inspected the leaflet once more. It looked like a flyer for some maid café where they would "make your wishes come true" but the power radiating from it, meant that they were using these to have people summon them. However, who was "them" ? In all his lives, he had never seen anything like this. It seemed the supernatural were being far bolder than he remembered. He needed more information, and that's what he was going to get. Making the proper preparations, he proceeded to grab the paper and call out, in a small but forceful voice, "Come to me."

It was not even a second before a red magical circle formed on the ground and a demon came out, she was beautiful, a young pale girl with a frilly pink dress and blonde hair. She appeared young, and despite being gorgeous, he didn't let his guard down.

She looked around the room. "How quaint, this room is far too barren for my taste."

It was true that this room was empty, no pictures on the wall, or memorabilia of sports or hobbies were anywhere to be seen.

"It's a good thing this isn't your room then."

His quick tongue bothered her briefly, but she restrained herself, "And for what reason have you called me here young man?"

He smiled, "To have my dreams come true?"

"Oh? You're far too early to be sleeping with a devil such as myself."

"And who are you? If I may ask."

"You may ask, but it's only proper you introduce yourself first."

A small hum exited from his mouth. "Very well, my family given name is Ito Kentaro. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, and I hope we can continue our business."

"My devil name is Gagyson, bishop to Ose Hallel of the Hallel Clan, and now King of my own peerage."

She held her head high as she finished. Prideful. Hmph, All the better for me. The only thing I see before me is another pawn. "Very well then, I'm assuming these flyers are used to summon devils to the homes of people."

The devil nodded. "Correct, is this by chance your first time?"

He almost groaned at her innuendo. "Yes, I consider myself a scholar. My passion is knowledge, and when I saw this flyer, it reminded me of a summoning ritual, but it was a flyer for a maid café. I wondered what would happen if I called out to someone through it."

Gagyson stared at the human in front of her. "You summoned me, on your first try? You're not even afraid of me? I've told you I'm a devil right?"

He wondered what to do. "Well to be fair, I tend to take the more logical and calm route. If you wanted to kill me, you would have done so. The flyers are meant as a form of communication, so I'm assuming you're trying to spread your territory or gain followers. Basically there's something you need from humans, and you don't need to get your hands dirty to get."

The devil smiled, "Well yes, when you put it that way, I guess you're a bit above average for a human."

"Well then, let's get to it."

"The form of payment is your life. Are you willing to risk that?"

The young man bit his tongue for a second, "What do you mean by life?"

"Depending on your request, I take some of your life. If you wanted a stronger physique, I could shave a decade off of your life, and you would get a complete makeover. If you want money, it could be more; however, there are also smaller things like needing items, I can get you a new release game for only a day of your life." She smiled at him.

The boy almost laughed. This form of payment… It was almost too much.

"That is indeed a steep price; however, for knowledge, I'm willing to pay that price."

"Hmmm. I expected you to cower, but it's your life anyway."

And so their contract began.

"Venelana, with Sirzechs gone, I've been thinking we could have another child."

His wife smiled, "You just want to have sex." She accused.

"No!" After the blush in his face dispersed, "Maybe a little."

"Well I don't mind. I guess we can start tonight?" She laughed as her husband began kissing her then and there.

"…And so an ordeal will be placed on human kind by YHVW…"

"What…"

A man grew with despair.

"For all these crimes you are cast from this realm brother. I hope you learn your lesson."

"You won't get away with this brother. I will come back, and far more powerful than before. You've missed your chance to strike me down, and for that you will pay dearly!"

"Goodbye brother."

"Noooooooooo!"

"Yes master, I will do as you say."

"Remember, only test him. I want to know the strength of this human."

"Things have not gone in our favor brother! We have no hope left, we must do this."

"Think of His children brother! They will suffer because of this."

"They think nothing of Him. This is our last stand. We will end this, and if we can't, we will end everything."

"Brother… please. At least let me help them with guidance."

"…. As you wish. But know that we will be going in full force, there are no second chances."

"Are you sure this information is correct?" One voice asked.

"Yes."

"The entire clan was murdered?" A female asked.

"Correct."

"And the killers have left? Who could even do this?"

"I'm not sure

"What does the area look like?"

"Everything has been charred. There is nothing left."

"Something is amiss. We must be vigilant."

"Do you think this could be from the Khaos Brigade?"

"Who knows, but we can't take any chances. Everyone must get ready."

"So God is dead?"

"Yes. Funny no? Millions of devout religious people are praying to no one every night."

"…Ha… hahahahaha..."

"Well it wasn't that funny." The young man turned to her and closed in on her. "What are you doing human?" He slammed his open palm into her forehead faster than she could react. A strange incantation came from his mouth. "Wha-?"

"Kneel." She did so.

"Now answer me again, is God dead?"

"Yes."

Her lidded eyes staring blankly.

The young man let out a sigh, "Well then, looks like I made a mistake." Staring at the demon in front of him he simply said one word:

"Megido."

The stage was set. Peaceful days died. Let's survive.
