Vox was trying so hard to come up with resins that he should keep the boy, However it was getting increasingly difficult.

The elders were coming up with really good arguments that were hard for him to retort. It had almost three weeks since he had woken up and Voxes plan came into his head. He was almost there though, he could tell. The old farts that made up the advisers were really stubborn, but he was almost there. He had the support of the younger generation on his side about his actual reason for not wanting to hurt the human but these people wouldn't even listo his lies.

"Lord Akuma, I just don't understand why your trying to be soft on this murder, he killed our people!"

'Yes, the rash people who were honestly better off without anyway.'

"Yes but if we just kill him or beat him up and let him go the. He won't understand the weight of his sin. If we keep him here as my slave i can ensure that he regrets his disison to kill them rather then leave and never think about it again." The men in the room looked heasatent but after a little more discussion they finally agreed.

Vox could very easily say that that was one of the most difficult things he has ever done. But it was worth it. He was going to get to help this human boy who has so much hate for demons that not all of them are bad. That they can be Freinds and not hate each other.

'We will have to sell this act completely though. The elders are already suspicious of me. He'll have to where some sort of restraint... definitely not anything metal, I don't want to rub his skin off so definitely something made of soft or smooth  leather. He seems to be rather paranoid so preferably something that keeps his hands available for use and to not restrain his ability to walk or run. So probably a caller... yes that seems to be the best idea for now'.

Ox was now by the boys room and deco to try and scare him by slamming the door open to make a loud noise

"The hell!? You know I'm jumpy so why do you keep doing stuff like that you stupid demon!" It stung just as bad as this first time the boy referred to his as 'demon'.

It made Vox really sad that he couldn't think about him past his race. He must have had a really bad experience with them.

His reaction was still rather funny so he smiled at the dark haired boy,  albeit it was a little strained but it still got the non threatening message across.

"You keep calling me demon! Do you not know my name or something?" He said it like a joke but he actually wanted desperately for him to just not know his name, no matter how unlikely.

"Of course I know your name, who doesn't know Vox Akuma the demon lord who gained his power not with a sword but with words?"  Vox couldn't stop his outward deflation. The boy really just hated him enough to refuse to use his name.

"Ah, so you chose to call me demon then..." he noticed that the human was looking at him very confused and probably trying to figure out why he had reacted as he did.

"Well never mind that!"

'Let's just change the subject now'

"you know my name, but I still don't know yours dispute you being here for almost three weeks now. Oh! Can I guess? Is it... you seem like the kind of person to have an I name... something like... Imasu? No...  Inojin? Hmm... no... AH! Izuna, final answer." That was a smaller change then he would have liked but it was the smoothest way to do so, pluse he was going to actually learn his name now.
