The Devil's way of business

Chapter 37 : Time

" Mihr you okay ? " Mihr was on the floor with tears " Karma you have such a good son I don't know how you did it but you are amazing he's so much like you except even more innocent " Karma felt insulted .

" Yeah I did have to make sure his soul grows up well " Karma looks at Moirai to see a picture frame with Karma and Moirai and some kind of ever-changing form of Isir " He's really sweet " " I know "

" Uhm Mihr I'm sure it will feel lonely for you so how about you take a break by going to heaven I'm sure you have friends up there right ? " Mihr thinks of it " Okay I'll go " " Oh wait first " Karma takes the ring and Ark of covenant .

" W-what ? " Mihr was surprised when he carried the ark of Covenant " It lost it's powers apparently likely due to the erosion of time or maybe there's just silence in heaven you know " Mihr felt so much honor he could die or as he would describe it because he can't die the same way a human can .

" This is so great " " Just tell the angels above I plan to return them " Mihr nodded as he saw more streams of light towards Karma " Wow there's so much gratitude now " Karma smiled as Mihr left sensing the hate from Lilith .

' Well I'm sure I can use this one way or another ' he smiles as he looks at his hungry little kid and calls Isir " Hello Isir do you want to come home and have dinner ? " " Sure what about Moirai though ? "

" I know what I can feed the little guy I have a lot of research notes that haven't been published yet I can retrieve the data and give it to him it should help stabilize his knowledge that he ate from Jane "

" Okay are you going to give it now ? " " Nope I plan to get it now though see you at dinner " Karma wonders about his plans and looks at Moirai ' Better safe than sorry '

He took the afternoon to do that work and the next day slowly became very uneventful only with the parents playing with Moirai as Karma finally hears what he wanted to hear .

" Morning Ziz how's that place you bought from me I'm sure I gave it to you " " Come here please " He could hear the despair in his tone as he went to it seeing the sky beast in a human form " Please explain why this is happening "

Karma sighed looking at the man trembling from watching Sally in pain " You think this is all my plan huh I'm quite glad that the insurance I offered you hasn't slipped your mind " " Can you do it or not ? " Karma smiled .

" It'll be more expensive and there's some changes " Ziz recalls the clause for it " How much and will it save her from that ? " " The sin of blasphemy is tearing her soul too much of either of the two acts will cause the soul to self destruct merits dragging you up and sins weighing you it's like the strings of a hot air balloon "

Karma sparks dark flames as blood writes the new deal " You want to take everything from her ? " " Yeah of course and from you too so give me all your merits and sins then memories and power "

Ziz recalled how that was the payment of the previous deal and the other deal where Karma promised to conquer the domain he watches so that he could be together with Sally .

His hands trembled with much hesitation " How about I throw in an invitation for you " Ziz was surprised as Karma pushed him closer to agreement .

" You won't want to stay near heaven so how about sticking to the Pagans I'll put a good word to ensure you can live a good life with Sally away from heaven they are already kicking out humans so it would be good right ? "

Ziz's hesitation was slowly falling off as Karma reached out " So that adds a total of your power , soul as the sky beast and your sins and merits as well as your payment for freeing Sally from sins and merits do you agree ? "
