Overcome (Belphegor x GN! Reader)

CH 6: Valac

Belphegor walked through the crowd with a furrowed brow as he looked for his brothers. You had been with at least one of them throughout the evening, so wherever his brothers were, you were sure to be there too.

Lucifer requested that Belphegor spend the evening with him and Diavolo, and Belphegor didn't really have any other option than to comply. Lucifer's reasoning was something about 'making amends and proving yourself'.

Diavolo began asking questions about how you were enjoying your stay, and Lucifer insisted that you be the one to answer them. Belphegor had no doubt that Lucifer's motivation was mainly just to hear you say how great of a job he was doing, but Belphegor kept his mouth shut.

Lucifer, of course, wasn't about to leave Diavolo's side, so Belphegor was the one sent to retrieve you. Finding you was proving to be more of a challenge than he thought though.

He knew that you started out the evening with Satan, but Satan dropped you off with Levi. Levi went home already, but when Belphegor called him, Levi said you left to find Asmodeus. Right now though, he couldn't find either of you.

As he walked, he caught sight of white hair. Mammon. Mammon had been pretty good on keeping tabs on you since you arrived in the Devildom, so he was sure to have some kind of lead.

"Mammon!" Belphegor called out and grabbed his brothers shoulder. "Huh? Oh, hey Belphie! Excuse me for just a sec," Mammon smiled to the demons he was talking to before turning to Belphegor and taking a sip of demonus. "What's up Belphie?"

"Have you seen the human lately? Or Asmodeus, for that matter?" Belphegor asked quietly. "Well, I haven't seen our human, but Asmo is with his own little group. I think they're closer to where Diavolo and Lucifer would be sittin'," Mammon explained thoughtfully.

"Well, wherever Asmo is, they should be too. That's all I needed though, so thank you," Belphegor nodded at Mammon thankfully before hurrying off to find Asmo.

This whole thing was turning into a wild goose chase, and he was going to end up nearly where he started. At least he didn't have to sit and listen to Lucifer suck up to Diavolo though. Although, he was probably going to get an ear full about taking so long to bring you back.

Just ahead, Belphegor saw Asmodeus surrounded by several men and women who seemed to be laughing at some joke that he just made. He was one step closer to finding you and getting back to Lucifer.

"And after that he asked where the spoons were, he still didn't know what I said and- oh! Belphie!" Asmodeus stopped mid-sentence as soon as he saw Belphegor standing along the edges of the crowd.

Asmo waved him over and the men and women stepped back a little, allowing Belphegor to shuffle his way up to Asmo. As he got closer, he realized you were nowhere in sight.

"Who are you looking for?" Asmodeus leaned in and asked quietly as Belphegor continued looking around. "I figured they'd be with you but nobody else has seen them and-" "Oh our little doll! I haven't seen them since the beginning of the evening unfortunately," Asmodeus interrupted thoughtfully.

The only person left he could check with was Beelzebub. Surely, hopefully you were with him.

"I'm gonna go check with Beel then. Thanks Asmo," Belphegor sighed as he began to get worried. Unlike the others, his twin would be easy to find. There was only one place Beelzebub was sure to be.

"Beel!" Belphegor called out as he hurried up to the buffet table. Sure enough, Beelzebub was standing at the end of the table with hands and mouth full of food. He quickly swallowed his food and smiled, "Hey Belphie! I thought you were supposed to be with Lucifer and Diavolo?"
