"Hey, Raz. You're never gonna believe this. Some idiot just went and messed with Beelzebub! Ha! How hilarious is that?" Asmodeus said.
"Yeah...funny." Raz said plainly. "Was he really seeing children as food?"
"Yeah. He's always been like that. Beelzebub is a demon of gluttony after all. He gains power from any living thing he eats. He's not the weakest but he's definitely not the strongest. Still...to cross him when something involves a meal...it pisses him off. He's likely already started hunting...or maybe trying to get into a summoning from a cult. As if, right?" Asmodeus said.
"No one should try doing that." Raz said grasping his demonic arm.
Raz Luci, he was born the son to parents participating in a cult what was trying to call upon a god. A part of his life he regretted doing.
"Now my fellow members, today is to be a spectacular day today. We will now, with the sacred summoning circle, summon god before us!" the leader said. "But first...we must sate him with...a sacrifice!"
Raz had been selected since it is said god loves all children and his parents, they thought their son bringing about god was worth it to give up their child.
"Now...begin!" the leader said as cuts were put into Raz's arms as the cult began to chant as the circle lit up. "Now...since we have begun, our lord will soon be….gah!" the leader said gasping for air before falling over dead as the rest of the cult was following.
"Mom! Dad!" Raz shouted trying to reach out for them only for fire to rise around the circle, destroying his arm.
Once the ceremony was over, Raz sat there crying as he gazed upon the figure that appeared.
"Well...this is a surprise. How many centuries has it been since anyone can summon a demon lord?" Asmodeus said looking around. "Still, not a single one survived." he sighed before turning to see Raz in the circle. "Whoa! A kid?" he said. "Hey there." he said as Raz backed away. "Whoa whoa! Careful there. I won't bite. Name?"
"Raz." Raz muttered.
"Raz huh? You lost that arm during the summoning huh?" Asmodeus asked. "Well...you managed to survive so...I think I'll give you a prize." he smiled as he vanished before reappearing with something wrapped in cloth. "This thing is known as Solomon's Arm. It gives the user the power to summon demons and use the Demon Style of Color Fighting." Asmodeus said. "Let's see if this is a fit." he said unwrapping it as the arm attached itself to Raz's stump as it quickly integrated. "Wow...you're an even better fit than I thought."
"Why?" Raz asked.
"Why?" Asmodeus asked.
"Why are you helping me? You aren't the god, you're a demon lord right? So why help me, a human?" Raz asked.
"Hmm. Honestly, there's something about you that I like. And honestly, I don't have a problem with humans. And you're all alone so you need a friend by your side." Asmodeus said.
"But what if...I decided to become an exorcist to prevent things like this?" Raz asked.
"Then I would help ya do it." Asmodeus said.
"What if...I wanted to kill you out of revenge?" Raz said.
"Then you better do it now before I decide to leave." Asmodeus said.
"Hmm. Nah...think I'll pass." Raz said leaving Asmodeus shocked before he started laughing with Raz joining in.
Back in the present…
"So what will the other demon lords do?" Raz asked.
"The child eating, nothing. We've made a pledge never to bother into the affairs of other demon lords. However, he's ticked off a few of them by just taking down David's name from the wanted list. He'll likely be suspended from his position for awhile." Asmodeus said.
"Well what if someone decides to wage a war against him?" Raz asked.
"Oh...that wouldn't be a good idea. We've signed an agreement stating that we demon lords would never attempt to conquer the universes. If any other universe attacks a demon lord...then that universe will be plagued by the Demon's Armageddon." Asmodeus said.
"What if its just one person?" Raz asked.
"One person? Hmm. Then I guess they would just focus it all on that person until they die. Killing a demon lord, much less waging war on one is a very serious crime even if what the Demon Lord is doing is wrong." Asmodeus said. "All of these broken rules always lead to the same result...Death."
