...Are people really throwing fits over what happened? Sure, yeah, dying sucks, but expecting people to not take up the offer of 'kill people, win fabulous prizes!' is pretty ridiculous.

That little incident is something we in the Netherworld would call a 'slow Tuesday'.

I don't think I'll ever understand humans.

I guess that's a real demon for you. So wise, Etna-san.

[sexy_beams]

Yeah. Wise.

[ ... ... ... ]

Hey. How're you holding up, kid?

[im_the_cute_one]

I'm fine, I guess. It was still pretty scary. I got some clothes from home, though, so at least I'm cute again.

[sexy_beams]

You've got your priorities straight. Being cute can come in handy.

[sexy_beams]

It'd suck more if you didn't have extra lives, right?

[sexy_beams]

See? Works out either way.

[aliensinyour]

It was no different than how things were at home. Although, how can you expect people to not get pissed over what happened?

[sexy_beams]

Where I come from, no one gets pissed--they just get even.

[aliensinyour]

Sounds like a dog-eat-dog world.

[sexy_beams]

Yeah, that's about right. In some cases, literally.

[abravelikehero]

There were no real prizes anyway, so giving in to it is just being stupid.

Anyway, not even demons are that cruel.

[sexy_beams]

No. They are. They definitely are.

[abravelikehero]

They aren't, I know it! Sure you all make lots of big claims, but... but deep down inside you're not that different. There are still things you don't do just for no reason, there are still standards you guys stick to. And... and pointless murder for the sake of it isn't one of those things. You might beat up the new kid, or randomly attack people, or even steal lunch money but I know this last event isn't the sort of thing even demons would subscribe to.

And like I said there was nothing real to gain anyway.

[sexy_beams]

It takes a pretty thick skull to argue with a Demon Lord about what demons do and don't do. Fourteen hundred years gives me a bit of headway on you.

[godisachild]

....Netherworld?

....You know Laharl?

[sexy_beams]

Haaa. Prince? I've known him since he was in diapers.

[godisachild]

So he really was a Prince, huh? I just thought he was full of himself but had the power to back up whatever he wanted.

[sexy_beams]

A prince? Nah, the snot-nosed brat's the king. The Overlord.
