Chapter 24 - Chapter 23

"I'm Belphegor" I stated.

"Elyon" she replied just as curtly, munching on the Demon Frosties.

Chomp Chomp Nom Nom… "are you going to eat that?" she asked, I looked over to see the pinkish red frosting all over her mouth, her fingers likced clean, the plastic bag empty and the demon frosty nowhere to be seen with a desperate hunger in her eyes.

"Feel free to have my portion" She yoinked it like a bird yoinks a caterpillar and started munching on it as well. "So what are you really? Demon of Sloth Belphegor?"

"I had that title?I never knew how ironically fitting. Hmmmm….I'll tell you but only under a contract"

"A contract?"

"It's my prototype! A non-disclosure contract!"I brought out a long sheet of paper with magic tattoos littered all over it.

In Earth terms they were programs, to bring over Inkosyth's energy and to circulate it acting like a tripwire. The tripwire was the contract, and if the tripwire was activated then the consequences of breaking the contract would be enacted!

It looked more like a mad scientist's page long notebook, like he was stuck in a cave for 50 days and had this entire paper to fit all of his ideas onto.

"I need a drop of blood to affirm the contract. It just says that you won't be able to reveal the contents of what we talk about from now until sun-down. If you do you'll lose the ability to speak ever again, and the same applies to me!"

Her eyes looked sketched, like a "Seriously?"kind of face.

"I'll add 2 Demon Frosties if you sign it"

Her eyes lit up! "Deal!"

It was that easy!?

She sharpened one of her nails and slit her thumb, placed it on the contract, and I had to ask to borrow her fingernail that seemed to cut through my skin like a hot knife through butter.

Brrrzzttt

Orange Power flowed from the cracks of reality flowing into the contract. "Hahahahahah!"I

I tried to suppress my laughter. It's actually working!

I felt the orange stream of energy start rushing like a crashing river before it turned into a still waterfall of energy and finally it started to calm down.

The orange stream of energy stabilized until it turned into a lazy river, where the water became still but slowly moving. The orange energy of fine rivers formed a circular shape around the contract like it was a fancy circular watch, and then I felt the orange power flow into me, and then into Elyon.

Elyon's face was far too stunned to speak. surprise, confusion, fear, excitement it was all on her face. I felt the orange energy stay with me making me feel comfortable, like I smelled the warm aroma of Inkostyh's air..

The acute smell of Nostalgia.

The contract stopped absorbing power, and the orange thread dissolved into a clear thread, and then transparent, but I still smelled it.

"W-What was that!" Elyon rushed over to me and started to shake me. "I thought it was like a fake contract, can I take it back? What do you do to me!"

"I told you what was going to happen! It is a contract that will take away your ability to speak if you share information we share with each other from now until sundown with others outside of this contract" I was the one that looked shocked!

She actually straight up signed a contract thinking she can be like, "no you"

I reached into my personal dimension which was no larger than a few meters large, and grabbed 2 more Demon Frosties.

I took 3 out, 2 for her and 1 for me.

Tossed 2 to her, "As per the contract here are 2 demon frosties"

Elyon munched on one of them, before keeping another one inside her pocket.

"So what and who are you?" I asked as we stared at the setting sun, as the yellow turned to orange.

The winds smelled like demon frosties that day.
