READER'S POV

Lucifer and I got to the library and he said to me, "So, this is what it comes down to, then..."

"I-It would seem so..." I mumbled with a hint of blush on my cheeks since I was still reeling from the reveal of the true ending.

"If we hope to get everyone who disappeared back, we have to finish this ridiculous game. And to do that, you have to defeat me, since I'm the final boss. Either that, or we have to fall in love with each other," Lucifer told me. Meanwhile, my heart was skipping a few beats when I imagined that particular ending.

"Honestly, why does he always have to go and buy such strange games?"

"What did you expect from an Otaku?" I asked with a small frown. "But seriously though, what do we do first?"

"That's what I'm trying to figure out right now," Lucifer told me.

"Listen, (Y/n). I was thinking...what if we simply leave things as they are? That wouldn't be so bad, right? If we decided to give up now, then it would only mean that the others wouldn't return to us, right? I mean, do we really need those guys anyway?" Lucifer asked while I glared at him.

"YES WE DO! They're your brothers and my familiar!"

"...Right. Guess we don't have a choice. So, why don't we try starting with the fundamentals of love and then go from there," Lucifer suggested and I gave him a confused look.

"If you want to develop feelings for someone, you both need to start by getting to know each other. Isn't that right?"

"I guess so," I told him.

"So, I'll ask you some questions and you should answer honestly. Understood?" Lucifer asked and I nodded my head before we sat down on the chairs.

"So...what do you wanna know first?" I asked.

"How do you really feel about what's going on right now?" Lucifer asked.

"I feel like I don't have any other choices, so oh well," I shurgged.

"Yes, the feeling very mutual. All right, next question. Which one of us brothers are you intrested in?" That question made me blush.

"That's a bit...personal, isn't it?" I asked him before he gave me that look that says 'answer-the-damn-question.'

"Well, you wanted honesty so...you, Lucifer," I said with a hint of blush.

"Well then, that's very...convenient."

"Please don't tell Raven, otherwise I will never hear the end of his teasing," I told him.

"Very well. Now, this time you get to ask me a question. You may never get another chance to do this, you know. So make sure you choose your question carefully."

"This might be a bit random but, are you dating anyone?" I asked him.

"Not at the moment. As you can see, student council business keeps me very busy. I don't have the time. Why? curious to know, were you?"

"Maybe a little," I chuckled.

"Anything else you'd like to ask?"

"What do you think of humans?" I asked him.

"What do I think of humans? Oh no. I don't think that's what you want to ask me. What you really mean is, 'What do you think of me,' right?"

"Well, yeah," I told him.

"Good question...Well, you're an exchange student from the human world. When you first arrived, I thought that all I had to do was to make sure that you survived a year here without any incidents, being careful to ensure that you didn't get yourself eaten by some random demon somewhere."

"Oh believe me, I've had my fair share of demons chasing after me for their dinner," I mumbled.

"What did you say?" Lucifer asked.

"Nothing, carry on," I told him.

"It didn't turn out to be so easy, you did what you wanted, unafraid of the consequences and you constantly stick your nose into others' business...And in the end, you began to make pacts with my brothers one by one. Why did you do that, anyway?"

'Uh oh, I knew this was coming!' I thought to myself.

"You've said that you wanted me to recognise your worth, but what's your real purpose? What are you trying to achieve long term?" Lucifer asked with a frown before an image of Belphegor popped into my head.

"To be completely honest, you've been a real pain to deal with."

"Oh gee thanks..." I mumbled.

"But, you're also very special...more special than you are difficult. You're changing me...and my brothers too. (Y/n), the truth is that I..." Lucifer was about to finish his sentence but he stopped himself.

"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"

'I'm probably going to regret asking this. But, this might be the only time that can talk to him about Belphegor,' I thought to myself before I said to him.

"Lucifer, I want you to make amends with Belphegor."

"...Wh-What did you say...?" Lucifer asked with a surprised look.

"Wait, don't tell me...that you actually met with him? That you went to that room...and you MET Belphegor...?!"

Suddenly, Lucifer transformed into his demon form and that made jump up from my seat and I took a few steps back from him.

"You went up those stairs, didn't you?! You knew you weren't allowed to, but you did it anyway! You there and...and you met Belphegor?!"

"Lucifer, I can explain everything!" I tried telling him but he wasn't listening.

"Do you REALLY find it amusing to poke your nose into our business at every opportunity? Do you really enjoy stirring up trouble that much? YOU..a mere HUMAN?! YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT...!" Lucifer yelled as he greated a purple sphere in his hand.

"(Y/n) look out!" I heard a familiar voice shout before I was tackled onto the ground and someone had sheilded me from Lucifer's attack.

I opened my eyes to find Raven in his human form and he's on top of me to protect me from the blast.

"Are you all right?" Raven asked.

"I'm fine but, Lucifer is angry! I had no choice but to tell him the truth about..."

"So he knows?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry Raven..."

"Don't apologise. I got mixed up in this mess as well," Raven smiled before he glared at Lucifer.

"You tried to kill her! What the hell Lucifer!"

"Get out of the way, mutt! I'm going to tear that human limb from limb!" Lucifer shouted.

"Over my dead body!" Raven shouted before he growled angrily and then he turned into a black werewolf with blue flames surrounding him.

My eyes widen before he charged at Lucifer and they fought. I pressed my back against the wall as I watched Raven fight Lucifer. He growled and snapped at Lucifer while clawing at him. At one point he had him pinned down and he bit into his shoulder shook his head back forth.

"Get off me!!" Lucifer shouted before he sent Raven flying.

Raven crash landed onto the ground and then he got back up and charged at Lucifer again.

"Hey, whoa, hey! wait a minute!" Mammon shouted after he and the other burst into the room.

"Wow. Is it me, or does the situation look genuinely serious?" Asmo asked.

"Is like, an acutal battle going on here? It totally is, isn't it?!" Levi shouted.

"Guys now is not the time for asking stupid questions!" I shouted before I heard Raven whimper.

I watched as he slid across the floor and then he crashed into the wall beside me.

"Raven!" I shouted with a panicked expression before he slowly turned back into his normal dog form.

"Raven! are you okay?! say something!?"

"...Ugh...damn he's strong..." He spoke weakly as he tried to get back up but, he was too weak.

"Don't try to move, buddy."

"All of you, out of the way...! I'm going to tear that human limb from limb..!" Lucifer shouted angrily while I held Raven close to me and he growled and glare at him.

"Whoa! We're not about to step out of the way and let you do somethin' like that!" Mammon shouted.

Beel came over to me and asked Lucifer, "That stuff about Belphie... What's going on...? Are you saying that Belphie isn't up in the human world? That he's actually upstairs...in the attic?! That you locked him in there?! ANSWER ME, Lucifer! NOW!"

I have never seen Beel look so angry like this until now. But, can't say I don't blame him.

"What? wait...WHAT?! ...It is just me, or does Beel look like he's about to blow up, too?"

"B-B-B-B-Beel! How would you like one of my prized Samurai Kitty Super Sweet Manju Buns, huh?! They taste puuurrrfect, you know?!" Levi tried to offer food but, it doesn't look like it's gonna work this time.

"Levi! We're WAY past the point of wher you could distract him with food!" Mammon shouted.

"LUCIFER...!" Beel yelled angrily as he transformed into his demon form.

"Out of my way...!" Lucifer shouted before struck Beel.

"Beel...!" Levi and I shouted.

"Wh...Lucifer?! What do you think you're doing?! How could you hurt Beel...?!" Asmo shouted.

"QUIET!" Lucifer shouted which silenced Asmo.

"All of you, get out of here right this-" Lucifer's sentecne was cut off when the doors to the library opened.

We turned to look who came into the room and we were all shocked to see who it was.

"Y-You...!" Mammon shouted.

"How can this be...?" Satan asked.

"...g...aah...!" Beel grunted in pain.

"Well, hello there, brothers...I can't tell you how much I missed you..."  Belphegor smiled.

"BELPHEGOR...!" Lucifer shouted.

We were all shocked to see Belphegor out of the locked room and him coming here but, Lucifer is still angry.

"...Wh-What's goin' on...?" Mammon asked.

"Hold on, isn't Belphie supposed to be up in the human world on the exchange program?" Asmo asked.

"Lucifer, what's going on here?" Satan asked.

Lucifer turned back into his normal form and he didn't say anything.

"I bet this comes as a real surprise, huh? Admit it, you didn't expect this, did you? To think that I'd actually show up here after you thought you'd gotten rid of me...locking me in the attic and lying to your brothers about where I'd gone," Belphie frowned.

"The attic...? Locked up...?" Beel asked after turning back into his normal form.

"Forget it, Beel. It's okay. I managed to get out, as you can see. Ahh...I've got to say, this really is nice. So nice. I love this feeling. This freedom," Belphegor smiled before he turned his attention to me.

"And I have you to thank for it, (Y/n). This is all thanks to you."

"Wait, what? Thanks to (Y/n)?" Mammon asked before Lucifer glared at me.

"So that's what you've been up to. That was your true goal all along, wasn't it (Y/n)...!?" Lucifer shouted angrily.

"What do you mean by that?" Asmo asked.

"You mean to say that (Y/n) and Belphie have met before? And reason for wanting to make pacts with us has something to do with what's happening now?" Satan asked with a frown.

"Wh..?!" Mammon looked shocked when he learnt this.

"Y-You've got to be joking. How could (Y/n) have been in any sort of position to make this happen?" Asmo asked.

"Who cares, honestly? None of that matters now," Beel told us before he grinned at Belphegor.

"Belphie...! I missed you so much!" Beel shouted before he flung his arms around Belphegor.

"Heheh, you're the only one, Beel. The only one who's happy to see me again, the only who came up and hugged me. Pay attention, guys.. You could learn a thing or two," Belphegor smirked.

"Well, we might have done the same thing, but considering the circumstances..." Satan trailed off before I picked up Raven and stood up from the ground.

"Ow! ow! ow! ow! careful! I'm still sore in the ribs!" Raven shouted.

"Sorry Raven," I said to him.

"(Y/n), I don't really get what's going on here, but...did you help Belphie? Is that it? You saved him?" Beel asked me.

My eyes widen a little before I smiled.

"You're welcome, Beel."

"Thank goodness you were there for him, (Y/n)," Beel smiled back.

"It wasn't just me, Raven helped too," I said as I looked at Raven.

"Well...only a little..." He spoke before Beel patted his head.

"No. If only (Y/n) hasn't been there for him!" Lucifer shouted before turn our attention to him.

"Do you seriously think that I'm going to let Belphie go free now?"

"What are you talking about Lucifer?" I asked him.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Beel asked with a frown.

"Lucifer, are you admitting to all of this? That you locked up Belphie and held him prisoner? And everything you told us about sending him to the human world as an exchange student was a lie?"

"...It's starting to feel like a bigger fight is about to break out. This time, no familiar of (Y/n)'s is going to butt in," Asmo pointed out before looking at Raven.

"An even bigger fight? Ya think that's possible?!" Mammon shouted.

"Lucifer, I'm not going back there," Belphie frowned.

"That's for me to decide."

"Oh no...no, it's not! You don't get to make that decision!" Beel shouted as he stood in front of Belphie.

"Are you saying you'll turn on me, Beel? Defy me?" Lucifer asked with a frown.

"Turn on you? Why would I listen to you, when you're the one who betrayed us!" Beel shouted angrily.

"I'm leaving. (Y/n), Belphie, let's go," Beel spoke as he turned his back towards Lucifer.

"...Go? Go where?" Belphie asked as I followed after them.

"Anywhere but here, right now Raven needs to heal," I told him as I glanced down at Raven.

"Do you want me to carry him?" Beel asked.

"If you don't mind. But becareful, he's still sore," I warned Beel before he took Raven from my arms and carried him out of the room with us following him.

"H-Hey, wait a minute! (Y/n)...!" Mammon shouted as we left.

3RD PERSON POV

After the door slammed shut behind the trio, they brothers were shocked after they left.

"..Wh...ugh. *Sigh* He left, and he took them with him," Asmo spoke.

"Yeah. I can't believe that Beel of all demons would actually turn on Lucifer..." Satan spoke with a small frown.

"Yo, what're ya gonna about this?! I mean, he just made off with Belphie AND (Y/n)!" Mammon shouted as he looked at Lucifer who has remained silent this whole time.
