A Sheep Among Demons

Lesson Seven Chapter Fifty-Eight - Welcome to the Devildom History Tour (2)

After a while Mammon stop fumbling with his words and went quiet, Diavolo appeared finally with their usual smile on their face. "Well, it looks like everyone's here now."

"In that case, let's begin our tour of the Demon Lord's Castle," Lucifer also appeared next to Diavolo. It seemed like he didn't hear what Mammon said. I mean, he didn't look angry or anything.

"... Oh man, that was CLOSE! Good thing Lucifer didn't hear what I said." Mammon let out a relief sighed as he said this under his breath. He quickly straightens up when Lucifer looks over with a chilly smile on their face.

"Mammon, when the tour's over, I expect you to come to my room and explain everything about what you just mentioned in detail." Lucifer's smile disappeared and got replaced with a glare that caused Mammon to let out a squeak.

"What an idiot..." Satan mumbled this as he shook his head at Mammon's misfortune. I will probably try to help Mammon out by making Lucifer go easier on him. Hopefully Lucifer will listen to me...

"Now, now, I think it's nice to have at least one foolish character in the group you can tease. It lightens things up a little, don't you think?" A high pitched and unfamiliar voice spoke up.

"HEY! Who're you callin' foolish?!" Mammon immediately got mad even though he didn't seem to know who called him foolish. He is really quick to get mad at people who make fun of him, is what I am noticing.

"... Wait a second. Where did that voice come from?" Simeon seems to be the only one who questioned where this unfamiliar voice came from. Unlike Mammon, who just focuses on getting pissed at the unfamiliar voice.

"Whoopsie! I suppose I really should have introduced myself earlier! Hello there, I'm little D. No. 2! Ah, but call me Number Two if you would, mmkay?" A tiny demon who seemed to come from nowhere appeared with a smile on his face. It looked really familiar to me, but I was having a hard time remembering where I saw this demon before...

"Wh-What is THAT?! A tiny demon...?" Luke looks confused at the appearance of the tiny demon. But Beel's stomach let out a growl at the sight of them. "Looks yummy."

"Careful, Beel. He'll make you sick to your stomach." Solomon told Beel this with a frown on his face and I could hear the tiny demon let out an insulted gasp that Solomon just ignored.

"You all know about the Little D.'s, don't you? After all, they help Yuki with any task we assign. Apparently, Barbatos has some student council business to attend to at the moment, so I thought I'd ask Number Two here to be our tour guide. He may be small, but he's very helpful." Diavolo spoke highly of Number Two, but it surprised me that the tiny demons who helped me with my task can... talk... I should probably keep this to myself.

"Yes. He's MUCH more helpful than a certain OTHER 'number two' I know." Lucifer had a smile on his face as he looked directly at Mammon, who had a confused look on their face. "A certain other number two?... Who's that?"

"You know, every once in a while, I'm actually a little envious of you for being like this, Mammon..." Levi shook his head at the fact Mammon was completely obvious to the fact Lucifer was talking about them.

"Okie dokie, then I'll give a quick rundown of what we're going to be seeing on our tour. The history of the Demon Lord's Castle is the history of the Devildom itself! We're going to be viewing many historical artifacts and works of art housed here in the castle. And in the process, you'll learn all about the Devildom!" Number Two really got into his role as the tour guide and said to mention all the stuff we would see in the castle.

"Boring..." Mammon mumbled that under his breath, but I was actually curious about the history of Devildom, so I was listening rather seriously to everything Number Two was saying.
