"ASMO, ARE YOU SURE this is the right place?" Mammon asked his brother as he looks around. "This place is kinda fancy."

"Well, this is what lord Diavolo told us. We are in the right place." Asmodeus asnwered.

They were assigned by Diavolo of the Devildom to take — maybe to steal — a cursed grimore in the human world.

Mammon was wondering why Lord Diavolo didn't asked his loyal right-man Lucifer to do all this, but he didn't had the guts to ask him. Who knows what will happen to him if he asks him why were they given a task.

It's really hard to believe and he also assigned Asmodeus to come with him. The truth, Asmodeus didn't want to come with Mammon but he just can't reject the future king of Devildom.

And right now, they're in front of a gate.

"Alright, let's get going."

"Wait!" Asmodeus stopped Mammon "What are you doing? Are climbing this gate?"

"What do you think I'm doing?"

"You just can't climb this gate! What there are securities?" Asmodeus panic.

"I don't see anyone." Mammon continues as he reaches the other sides. Looks like Asmodeus can't stop this moron. "See? I don't hear any alarms either. The owner doesn't know what securities are!"

Asmodeus sighed in relief and climbed the gate.

As they both got inside the house, they went to look around the house.

"Wow..." the two gasped. The insides were amazing. If the outside of the house is beautiful, wait until you see the inside.

"The owner of this house is hella rich..." Asmodeus complimented and kept looking around until he saw one portrait in the corning. "And beautiful..."  he went near to take a closer look.

Before he could get any closer, he heard Mammon yelled his name. "Asmo! Come over here, look what i found!"

Asmodeus sighed and went where Mammon was. Hopes he doesn't find anything expensive and plans to sell it.

MAMMON'S EYES WERE SPARKLING. He didn't know there were a room full of treasures. He could sell this and earn a lot of money. Maybe he can be a millionare he sell all of this.

"Don't even try to sell anything in here, stupid. You already know why we were here in the first place." Asmodeus voice stopped him from doing his plans.

"Selling one of this won't hurt Lord Diavolo..." he told his brother, but the brother wasn't buying it. Mammon sighed, "Alright..."

They looked in the room. It was like a small museum inside a house. There were expensive items inside a glass container in each side of the wall. And in the middle of the room was the one they were looking for. The one the Lord Diavolo assigned them to take, the cursed grimore.

It was floating and it doesn't have any glass container protecting it, unlike the other items. It was odd.

"Okay, Mammon. You go get it." Asmo said to his brother, but didn't get any respond. "Mammon?"

He looked beside him and he wasn't there, but he heard someone mummbling. He looked where it came from and saw Mammon in front of the diamond earrings. Bet he is planning how much that item would cost.

"Mammon! Don't open that!"

"Relax." Mammon said to his brother as he carefully removed the glass. As he removed it, there were no alarms to be heard. "See?"

"And what in hell are planning to do with earring? Even if you put those on, you won't be as beautiful as me."

"What are you talking about? I was tetsting something! Making sure there are no alarms so we can take the grimore!" Mammon protest.

"Alright, alright. What ever you say, stupid. Now, get the grimore!" Asmodeus said as he points the grimore.

"Me? Why would i take it?"

"Because you are my older brother and all?" Asmodeus said as he rolls his eyes.

"What!? Doesn't mean I'm the older brother—" Mammon didn't get to finish he was going to say because Asmo deus cut him off.

"Stop whining! And get the grimore before Lord Diavolo gets mad!"

Mammon didn't had any choice. He walked closer to where the grimore was. The grimore didn't had any glass just like the other items inside the room, so it was easy to take.

Mammon swallowed his suliva before he touches the grimore. Nothing happened when his finger touched the book. He sighed in relief.

"Come on and take it."

Mammon held the book. The moment the book was out of its place, a loud alarm was finally heard.

"What is that! An alarm!? I thought this place was alarm-free!" Mammon complained as he hugged the book in his embrace.

"Whatever! Let's just get out of here." Asmodeus said as he ran outside the house and Mammon followed him.

The house was really built different. He stole a diamond earring — and it is in his hands — but there were no alarms but when he took the grimore, the whole house was on alarm like there's fire.

He looked at his hands making sure the earrings was there, but he stopped running when there is only one earring, the other one was missing.

"What are you doing!? Why did you stop!?" Asmodeus was calling out his brother.

"The pair of the earring! I left it inside!"

"Oh, don't tell me you're going back just for a stupid earring! Let's go before the owner comes back!"

Mammon didn't had a choice. He went back to the devildom with the cursed grimore in his hands, the one Lord Diavolo told them to take.

Why did he made them do this? Why not Lucifer? He can do this without any help.

As they arrived Devildom, Mammon sighed. Good thing he didn' t get to meet the owner of the house. He stole something in the human world and might get to jail.

Mammon once glanced at the grimore in his hands. It has a weird hole inside, like there is a missing puzzle piece in it. He opened it and saw a weird phrase saying . . .

❝  The sky is dark, dark as the world.
As I dance with everyone's soul . . . ❞
