Lucifer chucked and then held his hand out towards me. I took his hand and soon found myself being lead through the House's corridors until we reached the door to my room. "Get some rest Y/N, I'm guessing you're tired from everything that's happened today. I know that encountering my brothers is tiresome more than anyone but you'll have to manage." He said with a smile. I nodded and thanked Lucifer for helping me out, then he left closing the door gently behind him.

TIME SKIP (next day)

Y/N's POV:

I woke up not too long ago but one minute I was sat scrolling through devilgram on my DDD and the next I was sat in the middle of a large court like room with all of the familiar faces from yesterday plus two more. I saw that one of the strangers was sitting above the rest, I can only assume that means he holds more importance in the devildom. "Probably Diavolo." I thought.

A.N. Y/N knows Diavolo because Lucifer wouldn't shut up about him the entire time he was explaining everything in chapter 3 (one of his never ending rants which I spared you all from lol)

The demon in question then stood up and began to speak. "Hello Y/N, I am Diavolo, the future ruler of the Devildom." He gave me a warm smile. "Today I am here to inform you of your task, which you must complete today. I nodded in response.Lucifer cut in. "Allow me to explain." I then focused my attention to Lucifer.

"During your stay in the devildom you must complete tasks, as I mentioned yesterday. These tasks will probably be reasonably simple as you have no magic, so there is no need to worry."

"Tasks are one of the ways we maintain RAD and its campus. Lower level demons will work on maintaining the campus and any stronger demons help deal with any threats that pose on RAD. Tasks also help to develop our students physically and mentally for when they leave our institution."

"Today you will be doing your first task."

Lucifer turned to look at Diavlo passing the conversation back to him. "Today, Y/N, I am entrusting you with a job to deliver a very important letter. Not only that but I want you to do it on your own."

Once Diavlo finished his sentence in heared the demon bother concern, most of them were you murmuring to each other in low voices but it was obvious that they thought this was a bad idea. Mammon stood up abruptly. "Lucifer! What's he goin' on about?!?" He said loudly. "Sending Y/N out into the devildom on their own is like asking a Demon to eat her!" Lucifer also stood up. He stared Mammon directly in the eyes and spoke teo simple words. "Sit... Down..." Mammon face flashed with annoyance. He stood his ground for a while but eventually he submitted to Lucifer and sat back down.

I got one last look at Mammon, who shot me an apologetic look, before turning back. Diavlo held out his hand and a letter appeared. He handed it down to me and smiled again. "The address is on the envelope, good look!"

TIME SKIP (trying to find the place on the envelope)

I've been wondering around the same area for about an hour and I still couldn't find the building which the address belong to. The streets were difficult to navigate at there were tons on nooks and crannies which were difficult to spot, that was when I noticed an alleyway which was hidden by a wall painted the same colour as the building next to it. "That must be it!" I thought.

I started to walk down the narrow alleyway, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched. I pulled out my DDD checking my location but the signal had cut out. Something didn't feel right. I turned to look behind me... nothing. When I turned back a tall figure stood only a meter away from me, so close I could touch them.

I stumbled back a bit but managed to regain my balance. I tried to step back but I couldn't move at all, my body was frozen in place. I tried to focus my attention on my legs and prayed for them to work, I tried and tried again but nothing was working. I looked at the figure who stood in front of me. He was tall, thin and I couldn't see his face at all (it was covered with a white, fox-like mask). The figure wore a hooded cloak which reached from his head to his toes.

The figure then spoke, their voice was deep and coarse. "So... you're a human?.." the figure took a step closer. "You just reek of Demon scum though... why is that?" The figure came over and put a hand on my cheek. "As if I'd tell you!" I shouted. He seemed shocked at what I had said, "oh well..." he said. "Well I guess I have no use for a demon-loving human like you!" He held out his arm, a red orb appeared, floating above the palm of his hand. The orb then began to morph until it turned into a sharp, spear-like shape. "Goodbye human." He said.

The masked man lunged at me with the spear floating beside him, before I could even process what was happening, a black and white blur appeared in my vision and took the hit in my place. I closed my eyes for only a moment but when I opened I saw Mammon, stood me between me and the masked man and with blood dripping down his right shoulder. Despite this Mammon grabbed me by the waist (with his left arm) and began to run.
