THE NEXT DAY

The human eventually awoke from their slumber. Rubbing their droopy eyes, they sat up in their bed before looking around.

With a small groan, M/C hopped out of bed, got changed, then went downstairs to get breakfast. The demon's were surely waiting.

A few moments later, M/C hesitantly entered the hall. It was silent - which was strange. Usually, the brothers would be bickering about something silly.

"Good morning, M/C." Lucifer announced with a small smile. "How are you?"

The aforementioned human took a seat at the other end of the table. They forced their lips up to form a smile. "Morning, everyone. I'm okay, thank you, Lucifer."

The eldest nodded. Everyone in the hall ate in silence for a few minutes. That was until Satan stood up and made his way over to M/C.

M/C hummed and looked up. "What is it, Satan?"

The human noticed how all of the demon's eyes were now on them. They weren't sure whether to feel scared or intimidated. Or both.

"M/C, I have something to show you." Satan grinned as he reached into his pocket. "Me and my brothers got it as a gift for you the other day, but weren't quite sure when to give it to you."

The human, now intruged, looked down to see Satan holding out a ring in the palm of his hand. M/C gasped. It was beautiful.

"A ring? Why?"

"Because," Lucifer replied, "We wanted to show how much we all cherish you."

M/C was at loss for words. The words they wanted to say immediately died on their tounge. They looked up into Satan's bright, green eyes and saw something within them flicker. Though they couldn't be sure.

"Here. Put it on." Satan whispered as he gently held
M/C's hand in his own.

Beelzebub gasped, "Satan, no!"

Too late.

The demon smirked an evil grin before slipping the magical ring onto the human's ring finger. The demon's watched with a mixture of emotions as M/C widened their eyes before eliciting a yelp of pain.

The brothers watched with uncertainty as minutes faded, the human crying as the pain became unbearable. Just before they thought it could get any worse, their body slumped lifelessly onto the table.

"Was that supposed to happen?" Leviathan gasped and looked over.

Satan shook his head with a gulp. "Um... I don't believe so - "

Asmodeus was quick to cut him off with a shrill screech that had all the demon's wincing. "Satan! You killed them!"

Satan frowned. "I did not."

"Let me check. You never know." The third eldest stood up and walked towards M/C. He checked their pulse and sighed in relief.
