The Great Demon Lord And His Knights
The Sudden Meeting
Marduk
Boss, isn't it time for your lunch? You can do the human work later I suposse.
Damien
Thank you very much, Marduk. I didn't look at the time. After the lunch I was supossed to have a meeting but I guess we have something else to do, right?
Marduk
No problem sir, I'll just leave lunch bag at your door and a coffee would be fine right?
Damien
Thanks, but tea would be fine. You can come in my office. I'll be waiting for others as well.
Marduk
Alright sir. So it's time for THAT meeting huh...
Raven
Oh it's time, sure! I'll come early.
Philipp
Damn, I was thinking to go out tonight.
Amon
Well, well, well.... Finally.
Bilé
I'll come 15 minutes later, I am not in the city right now. Wait for me everyone, alright?
Marduk
Bilé, this is a third time you know?
Loki
We'll wait... At least I won't be the last one to come into the office this time.
Damien
We'll wait for everyone. It's 3PM right now, I'll have lunch in 30 minutes and thr meeting will our meeting held around 5pm. I was supposed to have a meeting with the humans about the company but, it's time for our meet up.
Bilé
Then, I won't be late this time. Suck to be you Loki....
Loki
Shut up dude, it was all your fault last time. I waited for you the whole time, so that we can go together but you forgot about me....
Bilé
Well, you should have called me, not wait for one hour alone...
Loki
So, now it's my fault, huh?
Philipp
At least I came back to get you, Loki! We didn't start without you.
Loki
You were laughing the whole time at me...
Philipp
Of course, it was funny.
Amon
You guys should just go and start killing each other.
Loki
We'll not be going there right? Hopefully?
Marduk
That's what you said, Loki.
Amon
Alright mate I got your message, I'll be killed first huh.
Damien
Yeah, by me. Now get ready for the meeting. You're taking the longest to get ready...
Bilé
Hahaha, Amon, I'll cry for you. It was nice meeting you.
Amon
I am sorry sir, I am on it. Shut up you two.
Philipp
So young to die... Woah...
Bilé
Wasn't Marduk the old man?
Marduk
You all don't need to take my name into your little mouths.
Philipp
You just made him angry, Bilé... Congratulations.
Bilé
I was stating the fact. What did I do wrong now?
Marduk
I am not angry, but you all act like little children who just befriended each other for the first time.
Damien
That's actually true.
Marduk
See, even the boss agrees.
Bilé
That just show how much we respect each other, care for each other...
Raven
At least we aren't stabbing each other in the back, like others we know.
Philipp
Of course, we are brothers by heart!
Loki
I'll stab you first, P.
Loki
It's 3:30 PM. Boss is eating right now, right?
Raven
I guess he is. That's what he told us.
Marduk
Of course I gave him the lunch and I'll be first in the office.
Damien
Indeed, I am eating right now. I'll be sure to tell the humans to go home early and then I'll wait for you guys.
Amon
I am coming in 5 minutes.
Bilé
I'll come when you told me boss.
Philipp
I'll come in 30 minutes.
Loki
Shut up dude, don't lie. You're with me right now.
Philipp
We'll come together...
Bilé
You two, go drink milk...
Raven
Hahaha, that's the human drink.
Bilé
It is and they act like one doesn't know how to come to the office without the other one.
Damien
They need to prepare mentally huh?
Raven
Hahahahaha, damn that's a lot of damage.
Bilé
You cannot escape anywhere. Hahaha.
Philipp
Not like I'd leave him, he'll be like a lost puppy.
Damien
Sure, not like you didn't do that already.
Amon
Well, P left him for five times already.
Philipp
Oh, come on. That was just for fun. He's now hitting my arm.
Loki
I'd hit you somewhere else but I ain't you.
Raven
Are you ready for the meeting Bilé?
Bilé
Of course I am. I was really fast this time. I am not like Amon.
Amon
I am ready for the meeting.
Raven
Damn, my brother Amon ate something bad... Are you okay?
Damien
Alright, Philipp and Loki are in the office.
Bilé
So they actually came when they told us, how cool.
Amon
The hell is happening today? You all ate some poison or something?
Raven
No, they just came earlier.
Bilé
You're just suspicious.
Marduk
Just do your stuff everyone and come to the meeting.
Damien
Yeah, I'll be waiting but not for that long.
Raven
Alright I'll be coming in 30 minutes...
Philipp
Just be quick and be careful.
Loki
Shut up! Like you care.
Philipp
Woah there I'll poke your eyes.
Loki
I woke up today and chose violence.
Raven
That's the most human thing to say today, you suck.
Philipp
Truth be told, we all befriended lots of humans, so he got some weird words from them.
Damien
That's true but at least try not to get the words into your head.
Raven
He's speechless now.
Bilé
Damn, look how they massacred my child......
Loki
Shut up with your movie quotes...
Philipp
Ha! Now he's got all red.
Loki
I'll hit you with this pencil.
Bilé
We are coming up sir.
Damien
We are waiting as I said.
Amon
Wait up you two, I am right behind you...
Raven
Hey, run toward the elevator!
Bilé
I am holding the elevators, hurry up.
Raven
Don't use your powers you little.
Amon
Woah, not like I would use them the boss would kill me then slice me up.
Bilé
I just got chills all over my body.
Loki
Same, and I am I the same room as the boss.
Bilé
Woah, look at them chilling, and drinking vine.
Amon
They drank two vine bottles.
Marduk
Not like we'll get drunk anyway. There's a bottles for you three aswell.
Bilé
Oh, that's cool then.
Damien
Let's start the meeting then, my knights.
Marduk bowed to the Lord and so did the others.
They joked a little, then drank the vine that was brought by the boss Damien, but they didn't know that the vine was from him. Damien smiled happily to be finally with his knights and his brothers after a long time.
The Devil's Hour: The Promised Meeting
The long awaited meeting has finally begun. Everyone sat down and they started discussing some things, even though they were acting like children most of them, actually, all of them are really old. Don't let their sweet talk bewitch you, they might act sweet from the outside but they are actually demons just trying to do some good things.
Damien clears his throat so that he can start talking to others.
Damien
Thank you all for coming today. I know that we had a similar meeting last month, but, from what I have seen, some office workers do their meetings twice a week or more if needed. Today we will be talking about the promotion of some office workers if it's needed or not. I feel like we need to get to work and try to do something new. Do you guys have anything to add before I continue talking?
Damien was looking at them, waiting for each one of them to answer his question.
Damien
I do hope that you prepared some questions, or perhaps you have some suggestions of how we can do things in the future.
Marduk
I feel like we did a good job over the years, even the youngsters were able to do an excellent job considering they were whispering to me in the ear each day, how boring it is.
Philipp
We never said such a thing.
Raven
Did you think you could escape from this? You all know that Marduk cannot lie.
Bilé
I also said the same thing, I agree that I thought that it would be hard, but it wasn't that hard.
Marduk
I never said that you did something bad.
Philipp
We know, no worries.
Raven
Guys, I feel like we definitely could go out, and do some promotions, such as adding new products. What do you think?
Damien
That's definitely something we could do. The thing that I'm questioning is about the "going out thing"...
Damien
What do you mean by that? Could you further elaborate?
Raven
I and Amon, saw some people outside promoting their new products while playing with the children or perhaps talking about it to others.
Amon
It was an interesting sight.
Raven
If anyone has a product in mind?...
Marduk
I cannot say that's a new thing, but people have been successful with that.
Bilé
Since most of us look like we could eat up someone, we could leave it to the ones that look least threatening.
Loki
I see what you did there. Someone like me, I guess?
Philipp
He definitely looked at me too.
Bilé
What can I say? Not like we look peaceful?
Raven
You two and maybe the boss, uh, look nice and comfortable to be around?
Marduk
I definitely agree with that statement.
Marduk
But I think that boss will be busy?
Damien
I might be, but we all will be around. I think that I'll be able to join the two.
Amon
I never expected the boss to agree to this.
Amon
No, I'm just saying —
Loki
Don't say anything, this is not a playground. Even I am not joking around.
Philipp
Look who is a big booyy!
Damien
Anyway, since we agreed to do something for the next week or perhaps month we could conclude this meeting with the new product.
Damien
Since our company does and makes everything, from electronics to food, and idols and everything we could think of, maybe this time it could be something drinkable? As a supplement?
Loki
That's definitely popular among the people.
Marduk
It is, from what I've seen from the TV people really love something that makes them energetic and that gives them immunity.
Raven
Oh, the boss is thinking of vitamins, minerals and other things?
Damien
That's right. Something healthy and easy to make.
Damien
Something that they could drink in the morning and the night when they go to sleep.
Loki
What should we call it?
Philipp
Truth be told, I really like the one Amon said.
Marduk
It sounds futuristic, I also like it.
Raven
Do you like the name?
Damien
I like the name, and therefore it will be called like that. Since it will be used in the morning and afternoon it should be two different products in the same bag.
Damien
How about a small package, since the good energy food should be usually taken in the morning it should have all the needed ingredients for the energy; to make you energetic.
Damien
As for the night it can be the rest of the vitamin, minerals and whatever else people can take in the night.
Amon
We could talk with the pharmacist and the pharmacy that signed a deal with us?
Marduk
I will talk with them in the morning.
Raven
It would be a good idea.
Philipp
I feel like they would help a lot.
Loki
Yes! We will need that sign "Designed in the pharmacy" or something like that.
Philipp
The things you find in healthy food.
Philipp
I mean on the bags...
Damien
I was thinking that we were going to stay over an hour, but it wasn't even thirty minutes. But we had a lovely meeting, didn't we?
Amon
I totally thought that we were going to stay for over 3 hours, I don't know why...
Bilé
Same, I prepared all of my brain cells.
Loki
Not going to lie, I expected us to stay until the next morning.
Raven
I think we were overthinking —
Raven
Maybe we expected something else.
Philipp
We already knew how it would go since we were talking about what we should do next.
Marduk
We always do good in the meeting. I will never know why you guys act like it's your first time ever doing these things?
Marduk
I can say that this meeting was successful.
Raven
Congratulations everyone!
Damien
And of course, I must say, if we don't make the product in a month we have a year so keep it easygoing.
Marduk
Yes as the boss said, keep it easy and everything will be fine.
Damien
We will probably have a meeting when we start making the product, so keep an eye and ear out for my call. If you ever need me for something I'll be in my office as always.
Marduk
Alright, I think everyone heard this loud and clear.
Damien once again thanked them all for coming and said that the meeting was over.
Loki and Philipp were the first ones to get up and said their goodbyes to everyone else.
Raven, Amon and Bilé got up after 10 minutes of chatting, after the first group of people left. They said their goodbyes to the boss and Marduk.
Marduk and Damien are usually the only two who stay behind and chat. This time they did the same, they cleaned the office up, and closed the office.
They thanked the security guard and said that he could close the door in 5 minutes after they leave.
Their meeting was short but very successful. They managed to do many things in a little time. Maybe the next day will be even more successful and even more meaningful?
