The Devil's way of business

Chapter 33 : Counters

Karma and Isir yawn as they get up " You yawn like a cat " " I do ? " " Yeah here's a clip I saw " Karma watched the clip " I do " " That's what I thought " Isir put the image away " So what should we be doing for today ? " " There is nothing much I still have Metatron's promise for no harm to befall me " 

" So he won't get to you even if revelation falls right ? " " Yep " Karma smiled with confidence " But they might make you agree to release it " " not yet they would "

Karma gives Isir more portions of his soul " Here I can use it to protect you with it " " Are you sure about giving me more of your soul ? " " Please you have been helping me a lot this much is nothing "

Karma said as Isir felt Karma's soul enter theirs " Okay " Isir accepted it as Karma thinks " Do you think I can use this someway ? " " What do you mean " Karma lays on the bed and said " If I spread my soul which has the promise to all people with the mark of the best ... Wouldn't that make for a good tool ? "

" It would be a good shield but would that be okay ? " " Well Yeah " Isir looks at him and lays on him " Oof you're strangely light " " Because I'm free from all the chains the world can put on me " " He , you are free aren't you ? " " Well yes after all I do have an unrestricted way of life "

" You do , nobody knows who you are at all other than a little bit through me " " Don't worry nobody will know I already completely erased myself from the tree of life "

Karma chuckled and said " You make it sound like you are an alien " " Ahaha but aren't you more alien ? Being involved with some god beyond our world ? "

" Hah that's true " Isir looked at Karma as he smiled looking at Isir " I'm happy to have you " " oh really ? Then I'm also glad for someone like you in this world I wouldn't be alive if you weren't alive " Karma smiled " Me too "

Isir pulled themselves off Karma and lay on the bed spreading their limbs around " You know it always feels like the distance we used to have is all gone and it's just the two of us " " I feel the same way too before it's just me and now I have someone who shares the same feeling "

Mihr was surprised to listen to their morning talk ' So adorable I'll give them some privacy ' he said happy with what has always occurred ' It's so nice to watch Karma so happy '

He was also content watching Karma ' Seeing the light so close is so blinding sometimes , but if I had closed my eyes wouldn't I be left behind '

Mihr didn't want to return to watching Karma from afar .

...

" Hey Mihr is it okay for you to stay here for so long ? " " Of course , it is usually guardian angels who don't need to stay here but on some occasions we have to get close when our respective protectees need help and we do not affect our surroundings just as much , so nobody minds as long as we do not exert too much of a footprint "

" I see , well I hope you don't feel unwelcome " " AHH no I feel very welcomed here " " Alright then we'll always welcome you even if you leave and come back alright " Mihr nods as he excitedly eats breakfast " What's for breakfast ? "

Isir asked " Here's yours " Karma pushed Isir's breakfast close as they ate " I'm done eating " Mihr said leaving the two alone " So what are we doing now ? " Isir asked while Karma was thinking .

" That's hard to think of I don't think there is anything we can do other than work , It'll be fast and all considering some Counts will help with the creation of the apocalyptic shelter "

" Then I'll help with delivering the machine to Reed's research then " " That works I can't hide the transportation of that many goods like you " Karma checks his phone to see Sally accepting the offer " Huh looks like Ziz is paying for the expenses "
