“So, is this oh so rude butler your friend?” Allois questioned. Zeloras chuckled “he is indeed a friend. But he is not the friend i wanted you to meet.” He replied, allois looked at him with genuine confusion. “You’ll see m’lord” he whispered as they stopped in front of a door, the butler raised a finger to his lips before opening the door and gesturing them inwards. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAH7WfNGz2X9
Allois walked in first zeloras following behind as allois spotted a man sitting in a chair by a window reading a book, he looked up his eyes glowing a bright red “ah- zeloras, its nice to see you again..” he said setting down the book, allois watched intently and cautiously. Zeloras walked over and glanced at allois who soon joined after. “My my, you’ve got yourself quite the catch...” the man said as he looked allois up and down. Allois frowned in disgust, zeloras chuckled “this is m’lord Earl Allois Laymen” zeloras introduced him. Allois bowed slightly and the man looked down at him with a sinister sneer “hello, earl. I’m lord Lucifer IV it is quite a pleasure to meeting you even over these quite dire circumstances...” he said formally. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAu0VTkFbdtv
Allois nodded “same to you as well” he replied, zeloras watched him and Lucifer gestured to the seat “sit please m’lord” Lucifer spoke. Allois hesitated but did as he was told and zeloras stood behind him as if he were a protective guard dog. 166Please respect copyright.PENANA0mco65HkHv
Lucifer looked at allois before snapping his fingers a chess board appearing on the table between “how about a game of chess over our conversation?” He suggested, allois’s eyes lit up and lucifer smirked “you can start. Now...about the massacre in London...do you know who started it?” He asked. Allois frowned “apparently a bunch of angels, i dont know exactly why though...” allois replied moving a pawn forward. Lucifer nodded “i see...do you think its possible that the angels are starting a blood bath such as this due to gods rath against a human?” Lucifer questioned, allois looked at him as lucifer made his move. “What do you mean?” He pondered. Lucifer looked at him and then at zeloras who was watching intently “there hasn’t been a contract between a demon and human for centuries...its possible that god is angered by a newly formed contract after the long period of peace we had..” he said. Allois stiffened, zeloras’s eyes narrowed. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAyfVe0oyTfS
“Tell me m’lord” Lucifer started leaning forward slightly “did you and dear zeloras here form a contract?” He interrogated. Allois stared at him in horror as zeloras frowned “are you implying that all of this is our fault?” Allois snapped. Lucifer chuckled “no of course not its just a simple questi-“”yes. We formed a contract. But that does not mean it is our fault.” Zeloras cut in, lucifer looked up at him and smirked “i agree, i just wanted a straight answer, thank you zeloras” he said.
Allois sighed as he and Lucifer walked down the hall to allois’s room. Allois frowned “sir. What was zeloras like when he was younger?” Allois questioned. Lucifer looked down at him as they walked alone “zeloras?” He replied. Allois frowned “well- i just assumed sense you guys are friends you’ve must’ve known him for a while?” Allois said unsure himself. Lucifer smiled “yes. I have known him for a while...I’ve known him sense he was 6. When zeloras was younger he lost his family due to a fire...zeloras is a pure blood demon so he was born that way..demons aren’t really known for being optimistic or free spirited unlike zeloras. Zeloras was different...he had no doubts or grudges or anything related to hatred. He was always a fun loving person...that started to change around the time he turned 12...when he was then taken in by the devil himself for training to be a proper warrior and servant to the devil himself...after that all of his optimism and free spirit vanished and was replaced with an ego and power he himself cannot control...but underneath all that, zeloras is a good person. Say- why are you so interested in your butler?” Lucifer explained and looked at allois.166Please respect copyright.PENANAsif4gWTB2Q
Allois chuckled lightly “I’m just curious...i mean he can be quite unruly at times i just wanted to know if he’s always been like that’s but it seems that is not true..” allois replied his mind racing at 2,000,000,000 mph. He didn’t know exactly what to say...it had to be a coincidence that his friend went missing at 12 and zeloras went to training at 12...it had to be. 166Please respect copyright.PENANA6bfvo34Cbz
Lucifer watched him closely before meeting zeloras at allois’s room “well m’lord i will see you tomorrow for breakfast” Lucifer spoke as allois avoided eye contact with zeloras and looked at lucifer “same to you” he replied as zeloras opened the door watching allois’s body language. As zeloras shut the door he looked towards allois who was looking out a window “young master...is something on your mind?” He asked walking over to him. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAceuUSRLvsX
Allois glanced at him still avoiding his eyes in fear he might find the truth deep within them “i- yes...something is troubling me..” he said, zeloras frowned “is there anyway i can help?” 166Please respect copyright.PENANAdPX32CRLgS
Allois sighed “yeah- actually...” he paused looking at zeloras “you-.your my friend from when I was younger aren’t you...?” He said, zeloras stared at him shocked and then frowned “so you figured it out...” he smiled sadly, allois looked away from him and looked out the window. “That explains why you knew what the book ‘the spiders web’ is...only laymen members own that book.” Allois said, zeloras watched him with a frown “Allois-“”master.” Allois corrected looking at him. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAcJlnDnl7bF
Zeloras frowned “I never meant to leave...” he said, allois frowned biting his lip “you know....that day you did that to me- I never reacted to your ‘pheromones’ it was simply because I was turned on by you...” he stated. Zeloras glanced at him “meaning...?” He urged Allois to continue. “Meaning...that day you made the contract with me. You tainted my body” Allois finished kicking zeloras in the shin, zeloras chuckled “sorry?” He said. Allois frowned flicking off the light and laying down “goodnight zeloras.” He said, zeloras smiled. 166Please respect copyright.PENANAkjBHDKw1QJ
