Greedy Demon Lord gets a Shocking Bill
"London! London! We're gonna have some fun even though I hear this city doesn't get a lot of sun!" Leviathan singed a little song as she hugs Lucifer's arm.
"Did we really have to come here." Raiden sighed not being a fan of London.
It has been a few days since the battle against Asmodeus as everyone got some rest until Maria felt the presence of the next Demon Lord of hunt, the Sin of Greed Mammon being located in somewhere in London and took the flight for jolly old England.
"Now Raiden, I know London may seem like a boring place, but it does have its charm." Machina stated.
"I was hoping to find some clues in a crowded place like this, but I'm not feeling anything here." Lucifer disappointed as she looks around.
"Mammon probably like to be in a quiet place to count her money." Raiden shrugged.
"I wonder what kind of business she's doing to make people so greedy?" Garnet asked.
"Probably for her own interest of selling products with dark magic or something cheap." Yuurki guessed as she searches through her laptop to find any trance of magic activities here.
"Why not check if she's selling anything online? Even a Demon Lord like herself must be advertising some demonic shit for sell in this modern age." Garnet pointed out.
Everyone look at each other for a moment and back to Garnet, thinking that she may have actually thought of way to find Mammon and Yuurki search through the internet to find anything magic related, then found an add.
"A magic bottle that makes all your dreams come true." Machina read the app.
"Wow, that was pretty useful thinking, good job!" Leviathan said giving the dark-skinned woman a thumb up.
"What can I say? I even surprise myself." Garnet smirked.
"Okay, now let's find the location to her shop and deal with her as soon as possible." Lucifer ordered.
"Hold it, we have to be sure not to fall for any traps otherwise we may end up being her employees for all eternal." Raiden warned.
"As if I'll let that bitch make a slave out of me." Lucifer smirked.
"(Of course, you would say that consider you made Maria your slave.)" Raiden thought as he sweatdrops.
(Mammon's Shop)
Raiden and the gang are standing in front of they believe to be Mammon's base of operation consider they can sense demon powers in there.
"You sure it's open? It's so dark in there." Maria asked feeling a little scared.
"She probably closes up shop early today knowing we'll be coming for her." Garnet stated.
"Then let's not keep her waiting." Lucifer said as she turns the doorknob finding to be lock for a second until the door suddenly open and they walk inside.
"Uh, I was kinda expecting something more gruesome and messy from a Demon Lord." Machina commented as she sees the shop to be small and clean even.
"Hey, just because we demons act a little more differently than humans that doesn't mean we know about cleaning ourselves up." Leviathan lectured.
"Just keeps your eyes open, there's bond to traps here." Raiden said as he sniffs the place definitely picking up a very strong demon present here.
Machina looks down at the carpet seeing the strange symbol probably means for the Sin of Greed though finds it unique that brightens up the shop a little, then she notices something in the middle of the carpet which appears to be a gold coin.
"Oh dear, someone must've drop." Machina said as she leans down to pick it up.
Everyone quickly reacted to Machina spotting the coin on the carpet and try to stop her from touching the gold coin, but it was too late as the moment Machina touched the coin they are now trapped in a large cage.
"Are you fucking kidding me?! I thought you were smarter than that?!" Leviathan snapped.
"Listen to what others say to you next time, even a dog follows commands." Lucifer angered.
"Hey, back off, Lucifer. It's not Aunt Machina's fault that whenever she sees an item laying around, she tends to pick them up to either return it to the owner or give it away to someone else." Raiden explained.
"Yeah, kinda like that time found a bag of money and gave to some guys without even realizing they were bank robbers." Garnet recalled as she scratches the back of her head.
"Sounds like your kindness also cause you trouble." Leviathan deadpanned.
"Yeah, that happens sometime." Maria sighed.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to." Machina apologized.
"What a naughty dragon woman." Mammon chuckled as she walks in the room revealing herself to everyone.
"You think you can steal my hard-earned money, just because I wasn't looking?" Mammon asked sarcastically.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't really going to take it. Honest, the last thing I would ever do is stealing." Machina said honestly as she hands the coin to Mammon.
"I'm afraid simply returning to me won't do." Mammon said even though she already took the coin back and put it between her breasts.
"Sheesh, if you're gonna lecture us about money then I'll just kill myself now." Leviathan complained.
"My, aren't you the pissy one with such language." Mammon pointed out.
"Duh, I'm in a cage." Leviathan talked back.
"Listen, I'm sure you recall me beating all you Seven Sins' asses and conquering Hell. We already taken down the Lust Sin, now it's the Greed's turn for a beating." Raiden glared as he raises his lightning coated fist.
"Oh, that seems terribly unnecessary. Why don't we sit down to a spot of tea and talk instead?" Mammon offered.
"Sorry, I can tell you prefer settling things in business even though you might cheat things to your way, I'm more of a man of action than talk." Raiden grabbed the bars and pulls them apart with little effort.
"Oh my, I made sure those bars were strong to withstand the strength of 50 men, but you're clearly stronger than that." Mammon commented.
"I hope you saved the receipt because you're gonna need a stronger cage if you're ever going to trap a Demon-Dragon." Raiden smirked.
"If you're so eager for fight, might I suggest we go somewhere with more open space." Mammon hold out her hand.
"I'm going too, I also want to settle things with you Sins and I ain't leaving things to a mortal boy." Lucifer walked up next to Raiden.
"W-Wait, are you two going to be okay?" Maria asked worry.
"Don't worry, we'll have this greedy bitch under our feet by the time we get back." Raiden promised with a gentle smile before he and Lucifer are teleported away with Mammon.
(Old Castle)
"Is this your house?" Raiden asked as he and Lucifer look around.
"Just a little piece of real estate I picked up. I've been looking for a lease it out, but none is interested." Mammon explained.
"Probably because no one can afford whatever price you're making." Raiden said.
"For the right price, this could be your new home. What do you say?" Mammon asked.
"You really think I came here to talk about leasing property?" Lucifer asked back.
"And I believe I made myself clean on beating you back at that shop." Raiden added.
"Well, can you really blame me for trying? I'm more about negotiation than bloodthirsty revenge." Mammon sighed that the talking is probably over now.
Raiden slams his fist to the ground sending an electric line toward Mammon and she dodge a quickly to avoid the electric line popping up like a spike, Lucifer jumps toward Mammon with her spear swinging for the head but the Demon Lord of Greed dodge it.
"Now Lucifer, you should realize that you're far too weak to beat me in this state though Raiden on the other hand may pose a little challenge." Mammon pointed out.
"Would you look at that, compliment from the Sin of Greed, that's something." Raiden chuckled.
"Shut up! I don't care if one is stronger than me, I will win this fight!" Lucifer declared.
Lucifer charge at Mammon as she jumps away and threw two bottles which Lucifer shattered one with her arm though it released an acid that melted part of her orange shirt and it stings her skin a bit, but the Demon Lord of Pride didn't care as she reel her arm back to throw her spear. Suddenly she felt her left leg not moving anymore, she looks down to see her foot is stuck in some sort of stick goo that was from the other bottle Mammon threw.
"Looks like you gotten yourself in a sticky situation." Mammon joked before throwing another bottle at Lucifer that released a mist around her.
"Try laughing at this!" Raiden shouted as he attacks behind her with an electric dropkick though Mammon was able to dodge that.
Lucifer quickly threw her spear before slowly losing consciousness to the mist, but Mammon saw that coming simply moving her head to the side letting the spear past by. However, just as Lucifer fell a shattering sound was made from behind causing Mammon to gasp as she turns around to find Lucifer's spear has broken through a stain glass.
"You fool! Do you know how much that stain glass cost?" Mammon asked in anger.
"Oh, are you feeling angry, Mammon?" Raiden asked with a smirk.
"Lightning Demon-Dragon Roar" Raiden fired his black-red lightning breath, but not at Mammon for he shot the blast at a random part of the castle destroying to bits.
"AAAAAAHHHH?! What do you think you're doing?" Mammon screamed.
"Just thought about a way to get you to take this fight more seriously. Maybe destroying this expensive castle should set the mood." Raiden said.
"Don't you dare!" Mammon charged at Raiden with a fist of anger.
Raiden jump toward Mammon to meet her fist against his, their fists collide creating a powerful shockwave with electric currents flying around a little and the two are pulled away from each other from the force.
"Oh no, I can't this damage continue to spread or else it'll cost me a fortune or two!" Mammon worried as she sees cracks and broken parts of the castle.
"I guess it's only natural that I would destroy a castle like the dragons in old fairy tales do, and then I'm going to take you as my bitch like with Asmodeus." Raiden mentioned.
"Foolish child, you really have no idea what I'm doing all this for." Mammon glared.
"Huh, you're saying there's more to money making business than just being a Demon Lord?" Raiden asked curious.
"Hmm, perhaps now you're willing to listen." Mammon grinned as she snaps her finger and they are suddenly teleported out of the castle along with Lucifer.
(Giant Nurse Room)
"Huh?" Raiden blinked a few times until he realizes that he was no longer in the old castle.
"Where am I?" Raiden asked as he looks around seeing dozes, no thousands of little baskets and some human women in here.
Raiden look at the little baby one woman is holding; he gasps upon seeing the baby has a more demonic appearance, yet the woman isn't faze by it at all.
"What… is that supposed to be a baby?" Raiden asked shock as he backs away but stop when his back touched Mammon's large breasts.
"That's right, that is one of my children." Mammon whispered in Raiden's ear.
"Wait, one… so all these are you kids?" Raiden asked shock.
"Yes, trying to care for 500,000 children is very troublesome for a businesswoman like myself." Mammon bragged.
"500,000?! JUST HOW MANY MEN DID YOU GO THROUGH?!" Raiden shouted and some of the babies started crying.
"Shush!" Most of the women shushed Raiden to keep his voice calm.
"Oh, huh, sorry…" Raiden apologized.
"I actually had one husband in my life, but centuries ago he left me with all these children I have raise all on my own and an unimaginable debt." Mammon mentioned.
"Seriously? The guy just abandoned you like that without a second thought, that's fucking mess up even for demons." Raiden angered, looking at the demon babies knowing what it feels like to be abandoned by his own dad.
"Doing this requires a tremendous amount of resources." Mammon said.
"And these women here, I take it you lured them here and have be your babysitter slaves for your business, didn't you?" Raiden guessed.
"Indeed, I made them sign the soul contact, so the children are happy, the mothers are happy, and I'm happy. What else does it matter?" Mammon said.
Raiden didn't like the way she's saying, it's almost as if she wanted to place her problems on someone else and let them deal with it while she does whatever she wants without even knowing what's happening to her own kids. This started to piss off Raiden more as he clenches his fist, then he heard one of the demon babies giggles making turn his attention to one demon baby as it tries to reach its little black hand to him.
"Aw, it looks like one is starting to like you. Perhaps you could help take care of them along with the other women we left back at my shop." Mammon suggested.
"What did you just say?" Raiden asked with his eyes cover in shadow.
"I think you're just being a coward, an idiotic coward who is too blinded to see the precious things she already has." Raiden said.
"Umm, what are you talking about?" Mammon asked.
"You said that everyone here who signed up for this bullshit babysitting job are happy, but it's more like these women are just running away from their problems and didn't want to face reality anymore." Raiden pointed out.
"So what, that doesn't mean anything to me!" Mammon stated.
"Really? Because I think all your kids want their mom, their real mom to be in their life like all mothers should. I never knew my real mom and my dad tried to kill me when I was a baby, but I have three women who raised me like I was their own flesh and blood, they're more mother to me and any blood related. As my girlfriend Maria would say, love will always find a way." Raiden declared and soon all the demon babies started crying almost like they're responding to Raiden's strong words.
"What…?" Mammon confused of this reaction and suddenly Raiden grabs her by the arm.
"Let's go." Raiden said before he engulfed himself and Mammon in lightning then they disappeared from the room.
(With Maria and Others)
"I wonder if Leviathan found Lucifer yet?" Maria asked, but before anyone can answer that question Raiden and Mammon appear before them.
"Raiden! You're alright!" Maria smiled.
"You teleported us back to the shop?" Mammon shocked.
"I'm only going to say this once, you're going to release those women from the contacts. I know life is bullshit and all, but I also know that there's always a better way to handle things." Raiden demanded.
"You dare make such demands of me? Such arrogant pride!" Mammon mocked.
"Pride, huh? Looks like you're starting to rub off on me, Lucifer." Raiden smirked.
Suddenly the wall of Mammon's shop burst from the major entrance of Lucifer in her demon warrior outfit.
"Yeah, it's actually kinda cute." Lucifer said.
"So, where the hell have you been all this time?" Raiden asked.
"She trapped me in a torturing room to make me pay for property damage, but I broke free and here to settle the score." Lucifer explained.
"More unfound pride. No matter, I'll make you bleed every last penny!" Mammon declared as she throws her potions at Lucifer.
Lucifer stops them in midair trapping them in red bubbles and toss them away all over the shop which the potions unleash fire and explosion destroying the shop much to Mammon horror, the Sin of Greed try to end Lucifer, but she grabs her by the neck and strike in the stomach with a strong knee-kick before throwing the greedy demon woman out of the shop crashing into another building across the street.
Mammon, the Demon Lord Sin of Greed, has been defeated and Lucifer stands victories with one high shoe on her breast.
"Well, that's take care of things." Raiden said.
"Hey Raiden, what's that on your leg?" Maria asked pointing at something attach to his leg.
Raiden looks down becoming shock to see it's one of Mammon's demon babies.
"Aw, it likes you." Machina commented.
"Hey girls, how good are you with kids?" Raiden asked nervous.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
The Demon Lord of Greed has been defeated making it two Demon Lords down and five more to go, and it looks like Raiden has suddenly found himself being a father of 500,000 demon kids and I think Mammon wouldn't mind that as long as she does her share of taking care of them too.
Next chapter will be Raiden and Mammon having their private time, all expensive paid.
