•_________Devil's POV_________•
It's been only six hours since I left the casino to talk with Satan and Beelzebub. Plus did a walk around the island just to pass the time, I know I can trust on my crew. Dice specifically. I don't trust nobody else to say the truth.
I walk towards the casino, looking a bit at the structure, my image upon it and taking the details at heart, making my ego and pride burn wider in my soulless body. After some seconds of self-appreciation I make my way inside the big door frame.
My smile slowly fades away as I see the total Garbage inside the casino. A complete disaster :the costumers are unhappy and cheating, the crew aren't doing their jobs and the imps are running around like crazy.
My steps grow louder and the screaming becomes quiet, making my steps echo inside the main floor. I glance at everyone, my face clearing a sign of disappointment.
I clear my voice as I as call out the name to search an explanation. -Dice! I require your presence, NOW. -Silence in the room.
I wait, crossing my arms as I wait for my Right Hand Man and manager. Still observing around the sinners, the mortals and the crew.
One minute.
Five minutes.
For hell'shake he never took so long. Perhaps he didn't hear my call? - DICE, HERE. NOW - I said stronger and louder, making the table of the reception shakin' near me. He must have heard me this time.
Two little brown imps come in my way, frantically. Their slim body making them fast little creatures. They start to talk too hastily for my ears, at the same time, in the demon language, which only i understand in this room, other than the demons patrons.
-One at the time, i cannot understand you- I said clearly annoyed already. I kneel to hear them better. I listen closely as the matter starts to get serious. At the last phrase, my eyes widened. My face forms slowly a frown and i snap my trident to reality as i roar in the room.
- CREW SEARCH KING DICE IMMEDIATELY. AND FOR ALL OF YOU, THE CASINO IS CLOSED- I pointed the door with my trident.The costumers left eagerly, not thinking twice by my command. The crew paralysed for a second and prepared in group to form a plan. I signalised at the two imps to call the others and to search Dice as fast as they could.
King Dice might be a mere mortal, but no manager is as exceptional as him. Belphegor is going to pay for this shitty performance.
Deal breaker.
•_______One week Later_______•
I am sitting upon my red velvet chair. My hands covering my face as i sigh in frustration. I press my temples softly, a groan following the movement with my fingers.
Why can't i find him already?
I make my cigar appear in my mouth, i lit my finger on fire to lit it up. The smell of toxic tobacco filling my nostrils as i let it get over my throat and head. I softly lean my body onto the frame of the chair, closing subtly my eyes.After some minutes of reflection i take the cigar out of my mouth, i lean onto the large desk and cross my fingers with the palm of my hands on the desk. I inhaled deeply and exhaled lowly. I then opened my eyes half lidded, my yellow n' red eyes matching the room that surrounds me.
-If no one can find him, I guess I gotta do it myself- I talked out loud.
