Meanwhile, Flonne was walking down the market streets with the prinnies until she saw something that caught her eye. As she got closer to it, she realized what it was.
"This is a statue of Laharl's mother!" she said as she gasped. It was solid gold. The statue was in the form of the queen standing, looking like she was praying. Then Flonne got an idea.
"I know. I'll give this to Laharl as a present. Then mabey he'll be a little nicer to me!" said Flonne cheeringly, until she saw the price. "10,000,000 Hl?! I'll never be able to afford something like this." Suddenly, she heard laughing near her.
"Heh heh heh, you like?" said the demon salesman as he came up to the counter. He was a wearing chains around his arms, made of pure gold, and had purple hair. "This is one of the rarest, most valuable pieces of treasure in the Netherworld. Not to mention, one of the last ones around."
"It's so beautiful. But what am I thinking? I'd never be able to buy something worth so much." Said Flonne disappointingly.
"Oh, but I like you, so I'm willing to make you a deal."
"A…deal?" Flonne said questionably. The salesman pointed to the top of a mountain.
"You see that mountain up there?" he asked the Flonne.
"Yes?"
"Up there, is a very rare, very valuable phoenix, one of the last few known in the world."
"No dood!" shouted the Prinnies who were with her. "That's death peak! No one's ever returned from it!" One of the prinnies spoke by himself.
"Wouldn't it be easier to just buy something else?" asked the prinny.
Flonne thought for a moment looking at the mountain before making up her mind.
"Ok, what do you want me to do?" asked Flonne.
"Nooo dood!" said all the prinnies as they gasped.
"It's simple. I need you to collect just one feather from the phoenix. The feathers are said to posses a power to either turn things into gold, or bring things back to life."
"Back to life?" said Flonne surprised.
"If you can just get one of those feathers, I'll give this to you for free!" The salesman said great fully.
"No way dood!" shouted a prinny. "That phoenix will tear her to shreds!"
"The phoenix is friendly to those with pure hearts. That's why most demons aren't to able obtain them."
"Most? Do you mean that someone did before?" asked Flonne.
"Yes. The last known demon able to obtain one was King Krichesvkoy. That was many years ago, and because of it, he was able to buy the castle the new overlord lives in today."
"Wow, I never knew. But wait, if you know it then that means..." said Flonne gasping.
"Heh heh, you catch on quick. Yes, he sold me the feather, on the condition that I make him a couple statues of his queen. Of course, the feather loses its power after either making 100 things gold, or bringing someone back to life. That's why I need another. I want to honor the king's kindness."
"Wow, that's so nice." Flonne said happily. "Ok, I'll be back as soon as I can with the feather. By the way, what's your name?" Flonne asked.
"Oh where are my manners. My name is Seta."
"Ok. I'll be back in a bit." Said Flonne as she was running to the mountain.
"Oh, please be careful." Said Seta as he started to grin a bit. "This is what I call a win win situation." He said to himself. "Either she gets torn to bits by the Phoenix, or she returns with the feather. Either way, I'm gonna get rich from this." He said as he grew an evil smile.
