Obey me! X Reader - One Master To Rule Them All!

Chapter 37

READER'S POV

We got back home the day after the retreat was over. It was a shame really, I wanted to explore that place a little bit longer and learn more about what Clayton told me and the real reason why he thinks I'm special. But, I decided to leave it for now since we're back in the house of Lamentation.

"Ahhhh! Yep, there's really no place like home! This...! This is my kinda place! This chair! This plate! The way the food tastes!" Mammon spoke with a smile. "I mean doncha agree? there's really no place like the House of Lamentation, huh (Y/n)?"

"Well, the Demon Lord's Castle was pretty nice too."

"Wha?! Are you bein' serious right now? Man, you're a total weirdo," Mammon mumbled that last part.

"*Sigh*...I've walked through this hall a million times but after bein' away all this time, I realise I really missed this place...!"

"Don't be so dramatic. We were only away on our retreat for three days," Satan told him.

"Only...? Satan, did you really just sau we were ONLY away for three days? I'll have you know tht have 36 Ruri-chan figurines and they're more important to me than life itself! But they wouldn't all fit in my luggage, so I had to leave half of them here! Eighteen of my figurines, ABANDONED! Left all alone in the House of Lamentation..." Levi spoke as if it was the end of the world for him.

"Do you know what it was like being away from Ruri-chan? Imagine if someone ripped off your arms and legs, chopped them into tiny pieces, then put the tiny pieces into a wooden pestle and ground them into a fine paste, then kneaded the paste, shaped it into patties and grilled them up! THAT'S how it felt! And yet here you are telling me it was only three days! I'd APPRECIATE it if you wouldn't be so dismissive!" Levi shouted in anger.

"Ahahaha! Look how serious Levi is! He's honestly mad right now!" Asmo laughed at Levi.

"There aren't words to describe how much I can't stand you guys..." Satan grumbled.

"Patties...Now I want a cheeseburger..." Beel mumbled.

"Cheeseburger, huh..."

"...Enough. Stop it. Don't even speak of human world food," Satan spoke with a frown and I don't blame him.

"Oh, are you remembering lunch on the last day of the retreat? Ahaha! Sounds like the human world food you guys had was pretty horrible, huh?" Asmo asked.

"Dunno if disguhsting is the right word. More like toxic..."

"Hey! my cooking wasn't that bad, it was Solomon's! His food could kill a rat, never-mind a demon," I told them.

Beel went silent when I mentioned this before Satan spoke up. "Yeah. I mean, just the thought of it makes Beel freeze. BEEL of all demons...that's how bad it was."

"Poor guy, I don't think his stomach is gonna be same after eating Solomon's poisoned food," I told them while rubbing Beel's back in comfort.

"Please don't remind me..." Beel mumbled.

"Well, even so, I'd have to say it was a fruitful trp. For ME , at least..."

"Ugh, here we go again. Time to listen to Asmo go on and on about himself and all the wonderful things that happened to him again. So annoying..." Levi grumbled before taking out his phone.

"But think about it though! This is me we're talking about... ME! Making a pact! With a human! Who isn't Solomono! I mean, can you believe it...?! *sigh*...It's been sooo long since I've felt this way... You know, that amazing feeling you get when you really connect with someone," Asmo spoke with a smile.
