starting from this chapter onward, i'll be adding statistics for the blade levels, which i'll try to be consistant with, some increases might be subtle or go unmentioned


Pride: LVL-0 EXP-00/20

Wrath: LVL-0 EXP-00/20

Gluttony: LVL-0 EXP-00/20

Greed: LVL-0 EXP-00/20

Envy: LVL-0 EXP-00/20

Lust: LVL-0 EXP-00/20

Sloth: LVL-0 EXP-00/20


"so remind me, why are we up here and doing this again?" Moxxie questioned, him, Millie and myself were on the roof of the office block that housed the I.M.P. office,

"I've worked out what most of the abilities the blade will grant me" I responded "and I need both the best shooter and best brawler of the team, and you two fit that bill"

"i still don't understand" Moxxie said, looking at his pistols, confused, as Millie twirled her battleaxe around effortlessly,

"OK" I started, taking a deep breath "from what I understand from the book, the abilities of Wrath improve my combat abilities, so, if that's the case, then I'll be able to defend myself from you two"

"and if we accidentally injure you?" Millie questioned, starting to sound concerned,

"that's where the abilities of Sloth come in" I responded "from what I gathered when reading the page, Sloth deals with healing ones self or others, though the current level restricts me to myself and to minor injuries"

"that's fair" Moxxie said "what about the others?"

"Pride allows me to create portals to the other rings, but there's a limit of how many portals a day, Lust, for some reason, will make me more desirable to anyone I focus it onto, Greed will grant me money, but a limited amount per week at the current level, Envy allows me to alter my appearance in some way, though I don't get how that relates to Envy, unless I'm missing something, and I have no idea for Gluttony, it's ability description is a bit too vague" I explained to them,

"and we're up here to see how far your Wrath and Sloth abilities can go?" Millie asked, I just shook my head,

"only Wrath, knowing Blitzø, he'd probably go all out with attacking me, and I don't want to hurt Loona, seeing that she's more of a weaponless attacker" I responded,

"OK then" Moxxie said, checking the clip of a pistol he had "so, we ready?"

"i am" Millie responded as she poised herself to attack me, I drew the Hellblade, holding it ready for them, not saying a word, wanting them to attack me without warning,

"go" Moxxie said, shooting at me as Millie charged, I felt the power of the blade influencing my body to move around the bullets, and to block and parry Millie's heavy strikes, the small skirmish lasted all of 2 minutes before Moxxie accidentally shot directly at me, I brought the blade down, cutting the bullet in two, causing the halves to impact either side of me, leaving the 2 in shock,

"whoa, that was quite the workout" Millie said, Moxxie running over to where the bullet halves had dug into the infrastructure, completely shocked,

"yeah" I said, looking at the blade "this thing is more powerful than expected"

"i guess that's why it was enchanted the way it was" Moxxie surmised, I nodded gently as I sheathed the blade.


"no calls or anything yet?" I questioned as I sat by Loona's desk, she glanced at me with a bored look,

"nope" she replied bluntly, I looked at her,

"do you do anything that is fun?" I questioned,

"i torment Moxxie" she responded, eliciting a "hey" from Moxxie, I chucked,

"yeah, but I meant outside of work"

"not really" she frowned a bit "my last time out…..wasn't the best in terms of…." I stared but didn't want to push her

"that's fair" I looked at the door leading into Blitzø's office as I heard his screaming ringtone "sounds like the boss has a personal call"

"WHAT THE FUCK!?" I heard him shout not 3 seconds later, I looked at Loona,

"Stolas?"

"Stolas" I nodded gently, wondering what perverted reason why they were calling Blitzø this time around,

"what's your money on this time?"

"probably adjusting the terms that allows Blitzø to keep the book for the business"

"i wouldn't be surprised" I sighed and leaned back into side of the desk, Loona the gave a groan of annoyance

"fuck, I kicked the cable out again, can you go under and fix it?" Loona asked,

"sure Loona" I replied, crawling under the desk, but I didn't find any cable that was unplugged, accidentally or not, I then looked back and blushed as saw Loona's paws close by my face,

"M&M, GET IN HERE! WE'RE GOING TO LOO LOO LAND!" I let out a cry of pain when Blitzø's announcement through that stupid megaphone of his caused me to hit my head on the underside of the desk, I crawled out clutching my head,

"Loo Loo Land?" Moxxie questioned, just before Millie crashed through the office door window,

"Loo Loo Land?!" she asked excitedly, I noticed Loona getting annoyed

"LOO LOO LAND!" Blitzø announced as Loona hit her breaking point,

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" I didn't say anything after this as I focused the Sloth healing to make sure that I had no cuts in my scalp, approaching the office door,

"you really need to tone down the megaphone usage" I said, pulling Millie out from the glass "otherwise you might find it deep under your tail, and I don't mean that I'll be doing it"

"ah, whatever, we will need you there as well" he said, dismissing my comment "anyway, Stolas has a job for us, he wants us as bodyguards while he and his daughter go to Loo Loo Land, a theme park in the Greed Ring" he clarified before I could ask,

"well at least I'll be getting a free level" I said, before muttering "i never knew that Stolas has a daughter"

"news to me too" Moxxie added

"we'll be leaving in an hour, make sure you're all ready by then" Blitzø said, dismissing us, watching as Millie was bouncing excitedly,

"whats with her?" I asked Moxxie

"i have no idea" he replied, I just shrugged and looked at Loona who looked a bit calmer, I glanced at the 2 imps before approaching her,

"what were you trying to do before" she glanced up at me silently as I muttered, not wanting anyone else to hear "you know, getting me under the desk"

"I've seen the way you've stared at my paws since you arrived" she muttered back "and I thought that I'd help with giving you some Lust points, you perv" I blinked at her playful insult and checked the sheath crystals, noticing that one of the outer crystals of both Lust and Wrath had a tiny bit of light in them,

"if the loudmouth hadn't gotten trigger-happy with that megaphone of his, there might be more here, but regardless, thanks"

"don't take it the wrong way Jet" I blinked "I'm not interested in you in…..that way, so don't get any ideas"

"that's fair Loona" I responded, turning away, using the Envy ability to alter my clothing to be a similar outfit to what Blitzø had in mind for the job, not even catching the tiny look of guilt on Loona's face.


I stared up at the lavish mansion as we pulled up, seeing the tall bird demon waiting there, almost twice as tall as Blitzø, wearing a white top with red decoration, including an apple decal on the chest, and red shorts, I frowned a bit, not having expecting him to be so casual, I then noticed the other bird demon standing by him looking fairly sour, they wore a magenta long sleeved top with star patterns over it, a black cardigan that had it's sleeves torn at the elbows, black leggings that made the heels that she was wearing merge with them, and a black beanie with a tiara decal on the front, I stepped out and opened the side door for them, Blitzø coming out to greet them,

"oh Blitzy, so glad that you're here" the taller one said effeminately, figuring that this was Stolas "and I'm so glad you brought your fellow imps to-" he then stared at me, his eyes widening "is that a human?"

"yeah, apparently, there was something in your book saying that he'll come here and get a mission from Lucifer, and it happened" Blitzø quickly recapped, Stolas nodded gently,

"yes, I do remember reading that prophecy in my grimore" he replied "but where are my manners" he stepped up to me "a pleasure to meet you" he said with the same effeminate tone "i am Stolas"

"nice to meet you sire" I said, being polite "I'm Jet" Stolas gave a small chuckle,

"I'm sure that there was a reason why my darling Blitzy didn't mention you" the other bird groaned as he said this "oh, where are my manners, this is my daughter, Octavia" he said proudly, something told me that this was for her, but also figured that she wasn't all too keen about today,

"well regardless, we're burning daylight, so lets get going" Blitzø announced, showing absolutely no filter, I got into the back so that when both Stolas and Octavia got out when we arrived, I'll be able cover their rear,

"after you my owlet" Stolas said, Octavia silently slipping in next to me, I looked at her, judging by Stolas' height, I figured that she would be around my age, her eyes travelled to the sword that I had, I kept it close so that no part would be able to touch her, not even just barely

"so, you're a human" I looked at Octavia as she said this, her soft voice surprised me somewhat,

"uh, yeah, guess-guess I am" I stammered her eyes narrowed a bit,

"and you're here because of some stupid prophecy that my dad has in one of his books?" she questioned, the tone slightly dripping with venom,

"i am" I replied, then I looked down at the sword "but I forge my own path regardless of what it says" I added as Blitzø started driving off, heading towards the elevators of hell, I could tell that Octavia was curious about me or the sword I had as she didn't stop looking at me, but neither of us said another word as we headed to the Greed ring.


We soon arrived at Loo Loo Land, me taking the time to read up on the new ability that I was granted via entering the ring, I watched Stolas step out of the van, looking excited, Octavia slowly getting out, looking as if she wanted to stay, but couldn't, following her out, I saw Stolas wearing an apple hat on his head, and I understood completely why Octavia was hesitant, I kept close to her as we followed Stolas and Blitzø,

"Now, remember: this is work and work only" Blitzø told Stolas as we entered the park "Me and my crew are not here to satisfy your perverted bird needs, alright?" Octavia looked fairly uncomfortable being here, and everything that was going on between Blitzø and Stolas was probably not helping

"Hey... Dad... Do we have to-?" she tried to ask before Blitzø gently cut her off,

"Okay, yeah. Hold on right there, sweetie" he said before turning back to Stolas "If you try fuckin' my little ass in that park, I swear to-"

"You are so cute when you are serious!" Stolas interrupted, being all flirty, running a finger down Blitzø's face,

"I'm literally gonna be sick" Octavia said, watching the display in disgust,

"and I'm right there with you" I added,

"Oh, crumbs! I knew today would be a lot! What do you need?" Moxxie asked, reaching into his fanny-pack "antacids? Ibuprofen?" he questioned, pulling out the pill bottles, before revealing 8 glowing green syringes that seemed way too big for the pack "morphine?"

"that was figurative, old man" Octavia retorted as she walked off

"and I don't think you needed to go that far" I added before following her "at least he was looking out for your needs, unlike them" I noted, nodding towards Stolas and Blitzø

"don't remind me" she said "and why do you care anyway?" before I could answer, I looked back as Moxxie let out a quick scream, we all looked back and saw that he was startled by an apple themed mascot,

"I'm Loo Loo! Welcome to Loo Loo Land! If y'all get hurt here, just try and sue us!" they said in a southern accent, I frowned,

"what sort of place has that for a slogan?" I questioned to myself

"Look! Via! It's Loo Loo!" Stolas said excitedly

"I have a question" Octavia stated to the mascot

"Well, ask away, little girlie!" they replied, letting off a goofy chuckle

"Is it true this park is just a really shameless spin-off of Lucifer's far more popular Lu Lu World?" she asked, looking a bit smug, that's when I noticed the posters saying that this place seemed to be the case, along with answering my question,

"no?" the mascot replied after a moment, dropping the accent,

"This place reeks of insecure corporate shame" Octavia stated, her mood seeming to sour a whole lot more at the answer, Stolas nervously chuckled, wanting to distract Octavia from this,

"Why don't we go check out the rides?" he suggested, Octavia's head turning to keep staring at the mascot as I followed them head to some souvenir stands, I stared at the phenomenal prices, one window advertising novelty cups at nearly 30 souls each,

"and I thought the theme parks back on earth were expensive" I said to myself as I kept looking around, almost failing to see Blitzø getting a novelty cup and drinking hat "why are you buying those?" I questioned,

"better to get into the spirit of things to make them comfortable" he replied, nodding towards the 2 owl demons,

"OK, that's fair" I responded as we both approached Moxxie and Millie, Moxxie having been talking about the price, but Millie giving the response of it being Loo Loo Land to try and justify it,

"listen to your hoe Mox" Blitzø said before removing his shades "How 'bout I take the first watch while you two have a little fun?" he suggested, Millie squealing and lifting up Moxxie

"We gotta do my favourite ride" she said excitedly as she carried Moxxie towards a roller-coaster named "The Lawsuit", I just watched

"something tells me that Moxxie won't survive long" Blitzø chuckled,

"yeah, maybe" he then looked up at me "now why don't you go have some fun yourself?"

"I'll pass, and besides" we looked back at Stolas and Octavia, the latter already looking downright bored as Stolas attempted to tempt her into getting a souvenir t-shirt "i feel like Octavia needs someone closer to her age to talk to"

"eh, whatever gets your dick wet" Blitzø responded as he got his rifle out and ready, I just shook my head at his comment.


After a little while, we wandered through the park, Blitzø acting more like a stealthy sniper, minus the stealth part, while I kept close to Octavia and Stolas, Stolas kept stopping at various stalls to try and entice Octavia into enjoying herself, none of which worked, at one stop, I noticed some toffee apples, or whatever the hell equivalent of them was

"hey Octavia?" she turned to face me as I looked at them "care for one" she stared for a moment

"I'm fine" she replied curtly, I nodded gently as we continued on, stopping again, but for another reason entirely,

"You know, it's quite thrilling to see you on the job, Blitzy" Stolas said almost seductively as he stroked Blitzø's horn,

"Save it, bitch, I'm working" he responded, I just rolled my eyes at this, wondering what Stolas saw in him,

"You both need to get a room" Octavia said flatly,

"Hey, I am not a day-hooker" Blitzø said, an imp woman pausing to give him a disgusted look before walking off "What? I just said I'm not one, prude!" he declared, flipping the woman off,

"but you sure are being treated as one" I said, Blitzø was about to retort to that,

"Oh! Look, Via!" Stolas exclaimed in excitement, pointing towards a circus tent "You used to cry such tears of joy at this show"

"oh no" she said, looking almost terrified, telling me that the "tears of joy" weren't exactly that, Blitzø walked up and stared at the tent, leaning on his rifle right next to Octavia,

"I hate that fucking clown" they both stated in unison, I was about to ask them what that was about before noticing what was going on behind them,

"oh Blitzy~" Stolas called, not sounding the least bit concerned "i need my bodyguard please" he added as a bag was placed over his head, Blitzø taking aim at an imp that had leapt up and was about to stab Stolas, shooting them through the chest, causing the other imps to flee, Blitzø walked over to grab Stolas off the ground

"now I see why he asked for Blitzø to be his body guard today" I said looking at Octavia "both reasons" I quickly added as she opened her mouth to say something in response, leading the 3 of them into the tent, taking a seat near the front, Blitzø depositing Stolas by Octavia as she unceremoniously pulled the bag off of his head, Blitzø heading to the higher area of the bleachers, I looked to the stage as I heard an artificial, glitching voice,

"Hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyyy, Implings! It's me, the Robotic Fizzarolli!" I stared at the imp clown robot stepping out onto the stage "Shipped from Big Ozzie's factory to bring you a wonderful show celebrating Loo Loo Land, spelled with Os, to avoid lawsuits! H-H-H-H-H-Hit it!"

"big Ozzie?" I questioned to myself, not paying attention to the song being performed "not Asmodeus, right, if that's so, then they have a sex robot as a children's entertainer"

I silently watched the show, not really listening to the song, but it soon ended, me and Blitzø having fended off a few imp bandits from Stolas, for some reason they were going after him and not Octavia, regardless of this fact, the last straw for her was hearing him flirting with Blitzø, that, coupled with a few other things I've picked up on, caused her to snap and run off, I pursued her closely with Stolas a fair distance behind me, I chased her into a fun-house and she approached and sat in one of the apple-themed carts within, I approached and sat on the edge silently,

"why did you follow me?" she questioned between sobs, I stared at her for a moment

"because I feel that you shouldn't be alone in all of this" I gently replied,

"bullshit, I'm sure you don't know what it's like, having a dad who hates my mother as much as he does, and turns a blind eye to me" I frowned gently and looked away,

"no, I don't know what that's like, in fact, I don't know what it's like to have a dad" she slightly glanced at me as I said this "i envy you and your dad, envy the fact that you have a bond that I never experienced, not even from a surrogate" I sighed deeply "for 19 years, I missed out on that, and witnessed everything that I missed out on" she buried her face back into her arms when I said this, I then noticed Stolas approaching, I got up and walked past him "i'll give you two some space"

I stood by the passage that led out of the room, back to the entrance as I listened to them reconnect their bond and deciding to leave, carrying Octavia in his arms, I allowed Stolas to pass so that he could lead us out, but before we could leave the fun-house, a final imp bandit dropped down, I was prepared to draw my blade when Stolas turned his head towards them, his eyes glowing red and the imp turning to stone, I gawked at this, almost questioning why he needed security is he had that power, but I decided against that, following them out, seeing the whole of the park in flames, Blitzø, Moxxie and Millie battling against the Fizzarolli animatronic, I just shook my head and followed both Stolas and Octavia out, just before an explosion caused the 3 imps to get catapulted out, landing in front of the 3 of us,

"i'll get these 3 back to the office before taking you both there, if you desire" I offered Stolas, he just chuckled,

"no need, but thanks for the offer, and thanks for being there for Via" he replied, she just gave me a small smile that I almost missed, Stolas creating a large enough portal for the van to get through, right in front of the office, I quickly got the 3 of them in and drove through, parking out front, looking back at Stolas and Octavia as the portal closed behind me, I quickly carried them back up to the office to rest up for the rest of the day.
