A Bet with Slutty Evil Being!-Chapter 24 24: The Book Contents!

?"No one can live peacefully if they cannot learn to laugh at themselves as well as others. I mean what I said, and it is very much true. And besides, I'm a Succubus, we have no shame."

Nyssa was angry. She could not stand herself and her ilk being insulted. Her people aren't even close to Greed, or Rage for that matter.

She held dominion with Pride and Lust, and she would defend her view on Sin. Nyssa raised her hands, ready to trade blows with Asmodea.

The Succubus may have more experience to take to the fight, but Nyssa was a white demon, only equal ground stood between the two.

"Begin!" Yelled Asmodea, "Come at me with everything!"

And so their fight commenced.

Alex stepped forward in between the two demons. "I'm going to take a look at this book." He said as he headed for a quiet room.

Upon arriving in his bedroom, Alex's unbound his Grimoire and placed it on a table. Taking a seat in a chair, Alex situated himself so he could read comfortably.

Alex looked at the cover of his Grimoire. The cover was some type of leather hide, he couldn't tell, and it was apparently dyed a dark turquoise.

Neither the front, back, nor sides of the leather book contained any wording that might divulge what could be inside its texts.

Being the only one in the room, Alex spoke to himself. "Better get started... This book is extremely intriguing. It should contain spells as Asmodea said, but she also mentioned she never looked inside. What the hell could be in here?!"

Taking a deep breath, Alex finally opened up the cover to the first page. Within the book, Alex saw characters of a language he had never seen.

Yet, he knew what they said. "Is it Latin? No way, a dead language can't be used by demons. Some sort of demon language? I can somehow... Understand it."

Alex slowly began to comprehend all the characters on the page.

They read as followed:

[To my next of kin. Yes, that's you, Alex. Yes, I know your name, yes it is magic, and yes... I am your power. Well, technically I am the voice of your power... Well, even more technically, I am a message from the original user of this Grimoire, so it's technically like a voice.

Though it's writing and not out loud words. Ah, let me formally introduce myself, I am the late Lord of Lust, want to know my name?

HAH, too bad, maybe I'll tell you if you're good. Let me begin by saying this, any of the wording in this Grimoire cannot be comprehended by anyone other than you or me.

Me, because I was the only one alive who knew the language. You, because you have my power. You should not read any of this book out loud to anyone (unless you are casting a spell), and preferably don't show it to anyone either.

God or the Devil knows what could happen if the Governor of Greed got his grubby hands on this Grimoire.

A peculiar thing about this Grimoire, is that once you read a spell, it is permanently burned into your memory, and you will somehow be able to remember it when you think about it.

Convenient, huh? This Grimoire contains many spells, all useful in their own way, so read them all. I did, and it took up a decent amount of my time to devour the texts, not literally of course.

Keep this Grimoire on you at all times, you never know when you need to internally combust a vicious Gluttonous Berserker, intimidating blighters.

Hint - Internally combust them, they don't like it when the gasses they collect in their stomachs blow up. If you wish to know the reason why I chose you to wield my power...

Two reasons, I scryed your future and found you wise enough, the second reason... Well, I thought you were kinda interesting.

I mean the way you handled Arazra, I mean whoa! Wait, I shouldn't reveal what you do in the future... Damn, I'm new at this. Well, I'm keeping you from your studying.

Should you ever need to advise from an old and dead, very much dead, Ruler of Sin, hate that title... Just refer to this exact page. It's the first page in case you hadn't noticed.

Right, see you sometime when you die, don't worry, it's not going to happen anytime soon. My name's Asmodeus by the way.

Do NOT tell that to anyone. It's not because of the name's resemblance to Asmodea, it's because I don't want to be revered as the original almighty ruler of Lust. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

I bloody HATE that.

Chao, sayonara.] ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖

'Weird,' Alex thought. Several times Alex had reached the end of the page, only to find it completely rewriting itself with new characters, continuing the message.

Alex's mind exploded with thoughts. 'A message from the previous Lord of Lust, Asmodeus? So I just open the book to the first page if I need some advice and he'll give it? Is he still alive? No, he said he was very much dead... Aw screw it, the only explanation I can give is 'magic'.'

Alex turned to the next page, lines scattered around the page, none in order. Each line held some sort of incantation; a title for each spell that gave a small description of the spell. He read aloud one of the titles to a spell located within the bottom left corner of the third page.

"Dominion: Ice." Alex then read the incantation aloud, hoping what the message said about the spells being burned into his memory was correct.

"Ice, give me your burning cold.

Let me use your piercing points.

Grant me your frozen might.

Give me frost, give me dominion over ice."

Twelve seconds passed for Alex to move, wondering if something happened. Then he heard a voice calmly speak into his mind, "Well... Do something, you have power over me, use it."
