Blitzo stared at the boy in confusion for a moment.

"I'm sorry, did I hear that right? Or are my non existent ears full of fucking cum? Two weeks off work? For fucking what!?" He questioned loudly in surprise.

"Look- I know I made a deal with you to work for you in return for my life, but what does that matter if I die before the deal is fulfilled? I wanna learn how to use the grimoire, but I need practice to do that, and that takes time, besides, I've already lost my sword so I don't have any weapons on me to protect myself with" (y/n) explained.

Blitzo then looked at the ground they stood on, thinking about what he said.

"Please....." The boy whispered, as a begging expression grew on his face.

For a moment, Blitzo was quiet.

He then sighed and looked up to the boy.

"Fine......" the imp answered.

(Y/n) immediately smiled and cheered, "Yes! Thank you, you won't regret this"

"Hold on......" Blitzo said.

The boy's smile faded away, as he was worried about what the imp was going to say next next.

"If you're gonna try and learn how to use the grimoire, do it in the office during the week days, after all, we're still gonna need it for work" Blitzo explained.

The boy hummed and replied, "But..... What if I make some mistake when trying to learn the book's magic and, I don't know, accidently destroy the building?"

"Then I'll kill you, so make sure you don't," Blitzo answered.

(Y/n) gulped, rethinking whether he wanted to do this.

"If you have to, you can learn it in the parking lot outside, just make sure you're at the building to send us to the over world and call us back when we need it, and don't attract too much attention" the imp added.

".....Okay" replied the boy.

"Alright, I think that's all I gotta say" Blitzo said.

The imp then walked up to the van's driver's door and opened it, before hopping into the vehicle and closing it behind him.

Turning the vehicle on, Blitzo peeked his head out the window.

"If you're gonna jack off, lock your door, you don't want Stolas catching you in the act, especially since he'd perform the second one....." Blitzo told the boy, looking disgusted about the thought.

"W-what?" (Y/n) replied in surprise.

The imp then drove off, as he shouted a last few words, "Good night (y/n)!"

And watching the imp leave, (y/n) sighed.

He then looked down at the grimoire in his hands and took out his phone.

Dialing Stolas' number, he spoke to him, "Hey, uh.....  I'd like to get picked up now....."

.....

In his bedroom, the boy sat on the edge of his bed.

He's already removed his foot wear, having it by his closed door.

And his empty scabbard as well, laying it on his bed to the side.

The rest of his clothes he left on, and as for the old clothes he wore earlier, he forgot it on the floor in the office's living room.

He could always get those back tomorrow.

Sitting down, he looked at the grimoire, and just stared at it's cover.

He's been wanting it for some time now, but now that he actually had it, he found it a bit difficult to explore.

'Should I really be doing this?' the boy wondered to himself.

Hesitant to open it, he put the book down by his side and looked up to the ceiling.

Then a few knocks were head at his door, startling him.

"C-come in!" He said.

The door was then opened slowly, and Stolas would peek his head through.

"Hello (y/n)" the owl demon greeted with smile.

Seeing the prince brightened (y/n).

He felt comforted by the demon in that moment, since he was the owner of the grimoire.

"Stolas!" (Y/n) called grinning.

"May I come in?" The owl demon asked.

"Yeah man..... Of course" the boy answered, and the prince would walk into his room.

"I just wanted to check in on you, see how you were doing" the owl demon stated.

The boy nodded and replied, "I'm fine, thanks"

Stolas then noticed his grimoire beside the boy.

"I see my grimoire is in your hands, hoo hoo~ have you opened it?" He asked tilting his head.

(Y/n) glanced at the book before looking back at Stolas.

"Oh uh, no actually, I'm..... A little scared to I guess....." The boy explained.

"Ah, don't feel quite ready to read through it just yet huh? Well that's alright, open it whenever you wish, and if you want, you could read it with me" Stolas commented with a smile.

"Well, I'll be on my way now, goodnight (y/n)" the owl demon added, before turning his back on the boy.

"Wait....." The boy called.

Stolas then stopped and turned his head around just like an owl, creeping the boy a bit.

"Yes?" He asked in wonder.

(Y/n) then stood quiet for a moment, hesitant to answer.

Gathering up the courage, he answered the owl demon, "I..... Lost the sword you gave me earlier today..... I'm sorry"

The boy then looked down in shame, feeling guilty for loosing what was a gift, and from a royal as well.

"Oh..... You did? Well, that's just fine, let's get it back shall we?" Stolas replied.

(Y/n) then looked up to the the prince and saw a warm smile upon his face.

"Huh?" The boy asked.

Stolas then chuckled.

"Watch this......" he said, before holding a hand up.

The boy looked around, confused as to what he was doing.

"Waaaait for it......" Stolas asked.

A windy noise was then heard from afar, getting closer and closer to the two.

'What is that?' (y/n) wondered, as he stared at his bedroom's entrance.

Just then, the very sword that Stolas gifted him, came flying into the room and fixing itself into Stolas' hand.

Seeing what the prince did, amazed the boy.

What he once lost, has now returned and was being held by Stolas in front of him.
