Obey Me! one master to rule them all

a multi-day tour of the Demon Lord's Castle

“All right! It's finally time for our retreat! Three days and two nights!” Screamed Mammon at the top of his lungs as he waited at the house’s entrance “So, Yuki! Are you pumped for this or what?!”
Thinking about what she was told to do by Belphegor and Mammon’s rumours about the Demon Lord’s castle, she began to shiver and replied “.... Nope. Not in the least”
“Quit being such a stick in the mud! Where's your spirit, huh?! This is excitin’! You should be pumped!”
“Mammon, you’re being really loud.” complained Levi as he began to rub the sleep from his eyes.
“Aw, what’s wrong with you, Levi? Get that grumpy look off your face, killjoy! Ah, I know what’s goin’ on here. You stayed up real late last night playin’ games and readin’ manga and stuff, didn’t ya?” receiving the middle finger from Levi, Mammon just smiled “Yep, I knew it! One point for Mammon!”
“you’re like... too excited right now, Mammon, and it’s really annoying” yawned Levi.
“Mammon being annoying is nothing new, but yeah... this morning he’s ESPECIALLY annoying” added Satan as he made his entrance into the room.
“At first, you were complaining about how this retreat was going to be a drag.” sighed Levi as he tried to stay awake.
“ah shut up, both of you. Sure, I thought it was gonna be a drag, but now that it’s actually time to go, I'm excited! Anythin' wrong with that, huh?!”
Letting out a heavy sigh Satan shock his head “what are you, an elementary school kid about to head off on a field trip?”
Hearing a loud thud against the floor, everyone turned to see what could have fallen, seeing that it was Beel with his suitcase, Mammon was the first to speak, “Whoa, Beel, that bag of yours is waaay too big! Pff, I bet it’s stuffed with food, ain’t it?”
“Well, what about Asmodeus? I'd say he’s the one you should be criticizing when it comes to luggage” spoke Beel defensively.
“Gooood morning, everyone! My, you’re all early!” sang Asmodeus as he entered the room, but stopped in front of the mirror re-arranging his bangs. “Ugh, I just couldn’t decide how I wanted to do my hair this morning, you know? It took so much time...”
“...Asmodeus, WHY do you have so much luggage?” questioned Satan as he saw the mountain of suitcases that Beel had brought in.
“Yeah. It's only for two nights, ya know? You think you’re headin’ off on tour of the three worlds or somethin’?” added Mammon giving way to even more of Asmodeus’s suitcases.
“This is actually quite a bit less than what I wanted to bring. But then it occurred to me that I only have two hands, so I could only bring two suitcases with me.”
“Actually, larger doujinshi artists generally ship their stuff when they go to conventions” mentioned Levi as he watched Asmodeus sort out all his suitcases trying to settle on just two.
“Sorry Levi, but I'm not sure what you’re even talking about right now.” sighed Asmo as he opened and closed suitcase after suitcase in search of something.
“So what do you have in there? Food?” questioned Beel as he began to salivate thinking about eating something tasty at the demon lords castle.
“Ugh, no, of course not. I'm not you. Beel!” Asmodeus spoke with disgust lacing his words as he belittled Beel and his constant need to eat. Sighing Asmodeus then shrugged “I guess most of it is just clothes, make-up and random beauty products? I mean, everyone expects me to look my best at all times, now don’t they?”
“Man, even LEVI makes more sense than you, Asmo!” said Mammon.
“It looks like everyone’s here.” nodded Lucifer as he entered the room. “It won’t do to keep Diavolo waiting. We should head over to the demon Lord’s castle right now. I want to get there before the angels and Solomon do.” Watching Lucifer pick up his suitcase and usher his Brother’s out the door, Yuki bent down to pick hers up, only to have Mammon whisper in her ear “So, we’re goin’ to the demon Lord’s castle... I hope you’re ready, Yuki, ‘cause there in’t no guarantee you’ll come back from this alive, ya know?”
“I know you want Yuki to be interested in you, but you do realize it sounds as if you’re trying to scare someone, don’t you Mammon?” scoffed Satan as he purposely nudged past Mammon on the way out.
“What?! Whaddya mean?! Pff, why would I want Yuki to be interested in me, huh? There are a lotta rumours about that place, that’s a fact. From what I hear, there are ghosts wanderin’ the halls, y’know?”
“well, what I heard is that there’s an underground labyrinth beneath the castle.”
“so, ghosts and an underground labyrinth, huh...? I could totally believe both of those rumours. But at the same time-”
“Quit standing around and get going!” demanded Lucifer as he glared at Mammon.
“Right, right, I'm comin’...” quivered Mammon as he grabbed his suitcase and ran out of the door.
 Taking a deep breath, Yuki then held tightly on to the straps of her suitcase as she braced herself for the demon lord’s castle. Seeing Lucifer lock the house and walk over to a fancy limo, he opened the back door “Get in” stepping into the limo, Yuki saw that the other demons had already made themselves at home. Levi was by the window with his headphones on, Satan was reading a random book, Mammon was searching for loose change, Beel was stuffing his face with the snacks that most likely were provided and Asmodeus was doing what he did best looking at himself in a mirror. Sitting down on one of the chairs and leaning her head against the window, she noticed Lucifer’s reflection, he was giving stern looks towards his brothers whilst tapping his leg in annoyance.
The journey wasn’t that long and once they arrived at the Demon lord’s castle, Lucifer knocked on the front door. It opened wide revealing Diavolo with his arms wide open and a big smile “Well, good morning. I must say, I couldn’t wait for you to arrive!”
“Welcome to the Demon Lord’s castle. It's a pleasure to have you here.” bowed Barbatos as he greeted his guests.
“Good morning, Diavolo. And you too, Barbatos” said Lucifer in a professional manor. “Well, it seems that neither Solomon nor the angels have arrived yet, have they?” Lucifer let out a slight smile as his plan was flawless in every way imaginable.
“Man, now that’s just shameless. Listen to you pretendin’ like you didn’t hurry over here, all frantic to make it to Lord Diavolo before Solomon and the angel could” commented Mammon oblivious to Lucifers feelings.
“Hm? Did you say something Mammon?” Malice laced Lucifer’s words as he began to crush Mammon’s foot under his own.
“D’AAAAAH OW OW OW! My foot! You're steppin’ on MY FOOT, Lucifer! …. Lucifer sir!” screamed Mammon as he felt his big brother increase the pressure.
“Well, Lucifer, Mammon, I see that you two are getting along swimmingly as usual.” chirped Diavolo as he smiled at the group.
“At least Mammon is predictable. No matter what, you can always count on him to act stupid...” commented Asmodeus to Satan.
“Yeah. It's embarrassing to think that Solomon and the angels are about to get a front row seat to all of Mammon’s idiocy.” replied Satan.
“WHAT?” yelled Mammon.
”Ah, speaking of our other guests, they’ve just arrived.” commented Barbatos as he gestured towards the doors, revealing Simeon, Luke and Solomon.
“Hello, and good morning! We've already got quite the crowd here, don’t we?” smiled Simeon as he made his way towards the group.
“You demons sure know how to get an early start. I see you managed to get here before us.” grinned Solomon as he glanced towards Lucifer knowing his intentions.
“...Yuki!” shouted Luke as he spotted her in the crowd, he began running as fast as he could and pulled her into a tight embrace.
“What the...! HEY! What’s the big idea runnin’ up and huggin’ Yuki like that?!” moaned Mammon as he tried to separate Luke from Yuki.
“Ugh, THIS is why I can’t stand normies...” grumbled Levi as witnessed what happened.
“Yuki, I'm SO happy you’re all right...! So, SO HAPPY! There aren’t even words...!” he began to rub his face into her stomach as he increased the intensity of his hug despite Mammon trying to tear him away.
“What’s all this about?” questioned Satan as he looked at the scene.
“I’m guessing he must feel responsible for what happed... you know, for how Lucifer nearly attacked Yuki.” Asmodeus told Satan.
“I’m so, so sorry, Yuki. You could’ve been hurt- or worse- and it was all my fault... I know I called and apologized for this already, but it’s such a relief to see you safe and sound. I've been beside myself with worry...”
Rubbing Luke’s head, Yuki sighed “Don’t worry about it, it’s all right.”
Looking up at her, Luke smiled “Are you actually an angel? Is that it? An angel disguised as a human?”
Looking away from Luke, she saw Diavolo trying to get everyone’s attention “All right, then. Now that we’re all here, perhaps we should go ahead and explain how this retreat is going to work.” he then cleared the way for Barbatos to start his announcement “Certainly, My lord.” clearing his throat Barbatos then spoke “The aim of this retreat is for demons, angels, and humans to intermingle so that each may gain a better understanding of the other.”
“Well, as we’re stayin’ the night, I say the best way to intermingle is by havin’ a pillow fight!” Mammon spoke out as he began to playfully nudge Yuki in the arm. Continuing on with his speech Barbatos acted like Mammon never spoke out. “Now then, i’ll begin by explaining what we have planned for each day of the retreat.”
 “Wha... so you’re just gonna ignore me?!” whined Mammon to much of Levi’s entertainment.
“After you’ve taken your belongings up to your rooms, we’ll begin with a tour of the Demon Lord’s castle, where you’ll have a chance to learn about Devildom history. We’ll be serving Devildom cuisine for dinner tonight, and I've taken the liberty of volunteering to prepare tonight’s meal myself.”
“Mmm, Barbatos’s authentic Devildom cuisine” drooled Beel as he wished time would have spead up in that moment.
“Um, Beel... you know you’re drooling” sighed Levi as he had to move away from the river of drool that cascaded down from Beelzebub’s mouth, forming a pool beneath him. Pulling out a cloth Barbatos used his demon magic to make it soak up the pool of saliva whilst he continued to mention the planned activities “Tomorrow we’ll be having a scavenger hunt.”
“...Eh? A what now?” spoke Mammon in a confused tone. To which Satan sighed and explained “A scavenger hunt. It's a game you play in groups. You use pictures and hints to help you hunt down hidden items.”
“Each day, we plan to have a representative from one of the three worlds prepare a meal for us. So, tomorrow Luke will be making food from the Celestial realm. I'm sure it will be quite a treat.” smiled Barbatos at Luke.
“Food from the celestial realm, huh...” holding his stomach Beel began to think back to the last time he had food from the celestial realm.
“Was that your stomach growling just now, Beel? Because for a moment I thought I heard thunder” sighed Asmodeus.
“remember Luke, you’re making DINNER. Which means more than just sweets, understand?” reminded Simeon, knowing that Luke has a massive sweet tooth for anything sweet.
“Aw...o-okaaay...” whined Luke as he clung onto Simeon’s arm.
“incidentally, there will also be a dance following dinner tomorrow. Then on day three- the final day- we'll get to enjoy food from the human world for lunch, which Yuki will be preparing for us.” gesturing to Yuki, Barbatos then smiled. Looking shocked she just shook her head and mouthed the words ‘no’ looking at the group she then found the words to say. “Wait, no one told ME about this!”
“I did send notice regarding our plans.”
Looking at Mammon, Lucifer then cleared his throat “Mammon, I believe I told you to let Yuki know about this?”
“H-huh? W-wait a minute, didn’t I, um, mention that? ...no? well, THAT’S weird... ahahaha...” beginning to rub the back of his neck and looking at the ground Mammon began to sneak away from Lucifer towards the far side of the room.
“Well then, why don’t we move on to the room assignments?” pulling out a piece of paper Barbatos then read out the names of the people who was going to share a room. “Lord Diavolo will be sharing a room with Lucifer.”
Looking at Diavolo, Lucifer tried to object “You have your own bedroom here. Why share a room with me?”
To which Diavolo simply responded “Why do you think? Because this is a retreat, of course!”
Talking under her breath Yuki then sighed “Well he might ‘ruin’ his own bed sheets with you all night otherwise”
“You certainly seem to be looking forward to this” sighed Lucifer
“You bet he is” whispered Yuki seductively enough to get a slight chuckle from Satan, Asmo and Mammon.
Looking down the list Barbatos continued “Luke, Beelzebub, Leviathan, you will be sharing a room.”
“Ooh, what’s this? Looks yummy...” drooled Beel as he picked up an item off the floor.
“Hey! That’s a FIGURINE! It's Ruri-chan's pet Peetie the pancake! It's NOT edible!” screamed Levi as he grabbed the figure away from Beel.
“I have a really, really bad feeling about this...” sighed Luke as he clung desperately onto Simeon.
Looking back down at the paper Barbatos continued “Simeon, Asmodeus, Yuki, you’ll be sharing a room”
“Wh...?!” Gasped Mammon as he heard Yuki’s name being spoken without his included,
“And Solomon, Mammon, Satan, you’ll be sharing a room as well, and that covers everyone.” putting the paper away Barbatos then heard the moans and groans of those who object the most about their accommodation.
“...Yo, Asmodeus. Switch rooms with me!”
“...What? why?”
“Because, um... y’know... Solomon looks like he snores, and... and Satan’s feet probably stink...”
“Well, that’s an awfully rude thing to accuse me of. And it’s not true” sulked Solomon.
“My feet don’t smell. Mammon, the truth is that you want to be in the same room as Yuki, don’t you?” Satan bluntly stated.
“Wh?! You idi...! N-No I don’t! Why would I want to share a room with Yuki?! I mean... a human?! And when you sleep in the same room as a human, their smell ends up rubbin’ off on ya. So, you should be grateful I'm even willin’ to trade with ya! You should be HONORED actually!”
“Look at how hard he’s trying to deny it. LooooL” laughed Leviathan at Mammon’s attempt to cover his feelings for Yuki.
“Ah... I see. So that’s why you want to switch rooms, is it?” putting on a devilish grin Asmodeus then wrapped an arm around Yuki’s shoulder and pulled her close “Well, in that case, the answer is no. Too bad!”
“WHY NOT?!”
Pushing Yuki to the side Asmo then walked up to Mammon and placed his index finger on Mammon’s chest and grinned “Maybe because I enjoy seeing that bitter, frustrated look on your face?”
“GR...!”
Bursting into tears Asmodeus then covered his mouth to stifle his laughter “Ahaha! Yep, that’s the one! I really DO love that look!”
“How long do you all plan on goofing around? Let’s go. Time to take your belongings up to your rooms.” Lucifer chimed in pulling Mammon away by his ear.
“Owwww! Hey! Lucifer, stop! Quit pullin’ me along by the ear! Ugh, COME ON! What'd I do to deserve this, huh?”
