Obey Me! one master to rule them all

the chihuahua's warning

Sitting at her desk Yuki could hear two demons gossiping somewhere nearby. "Did you hear the news? Apparently that human forged a pact with Mammon"

"seriously? I don't get it. Why forge a pact with an ordinary human?" feeling their eyes begin to burn into her, Yuki then grabbed her belongings and moved seats. Looking around the room she noticed Diavolo and placed herself down at the vacant seat near him.

"Huh. Whenever you make an important announcement, the demons here couldn't care less. But rumours... they really do spread like wildfire." seeing a demon talking to Diavolo so casually other than Lucifer, Yuki presumed that he had to be another of Diavolo's 'secret lovers'. "Just when I thought the uproar about the new exchange student from the human world had started to subside some, now they're all freaking out about this."

"Come now, don't say that, Barbatos. Actually. I'd say that all this gossip is a good thing. It means that everyone will be watching this human, which makes it hard for any demon to go after Yuki's soul when no one is looking"

"Yes. Since Mammon's not doing a very good job as a guardian." looking at Lucifer on Diavolo's right side agreeing with everything he just said, Yuki then placed her head in her arms, she could still feel every demon's eyes burning through her flesh right to her soul. "I told him he was to look after Yuki, but he's off somewhere shirking his responsibilities. Though I figured this would happen" Having Diavolo walk in front of Yuki's desk he then smiled

"I must say, I can't believe you managed to forge a pact with Mammon, Yuki. That's no small feat. And what's more, you did it in such a short time."

"Technically, I wouldn't have done it if not for Leviathan."

"I suppose it stands a proof that you chose well bringing this human here, Lord Diavolo"

Looking at the other demon by Diavolo's left side Yuki bluntly spoke "sorry, but who're you?"

"...Ah, yes, pardon me. I suppose we haven't met before, have we"

"Technically speaking,"

"My name is Barbatos. I apologize for not introducing myself sooner" extending his gloved hand towards Yuki, she looked at it but didn't shake. Withdrawing his hand, he then continued speaking "I have the honour of serving as steward to Lord Diavolo. Pleased to make your acquaintance"

"Barbatos here is a smart and talented individual, so much so that I wish I could trade a certain idiot brother of mine for him instead"

"well if you don't want Mammon, Lucifer, I'd be happy to take him."

"well, as for your brother, in the human world, it is sometimes said that a truly wise man does not flaunt his talents. he keeps them secret." Giving a confused look at Barbatos after he said that Yuki then looked to Lucifer.

"Yes, but then again, an incompetent fool doesn't actually have any talents to begin with."

"Well, I've heard it said that the most thick-headed child is always the cutest."

"...stop it, Diavolo. It's troublesome enough having him as my younger brother. But my child? Him? I don't even want to think about it."

Giving a small smile Yuki then saw a random person begin to speak to Lucifer. "Ah, but I notice that you didn't deny the part about him being cute, did you? If I might offer my own opinion, out of you seven brothers, you're without a doubt the most troublesome, Lucifer"

"Is that meant as a compliment, Simeon?" seeing a small elementary child emerge from behind Simeon but still hidden behind him speak, Yuki couldn't believe how whiney his voice was "Pff, of course not! Duh! That was a put-down! An insult! He's taunting you!" looking down at the child Lucifer smirked. "Ah. I see you've brought your chihuahua along with you."
