holds up a dark, twisted artifact, smirking "Check this bad boy out. Jackpot or what?"
smirks wider "That ol' thing," as you so eloquently put it, just went from zero to hundred real quick. This, my friend, is a cursed artifact.
Hmm... I wonder what will happen if I use a lotsa blessed artifacts with it... What do ya think?
eyes widen in shock Are you insane?! You can't just mix blessed and cursed artifacts like that! It's like mixing oil and water, they're complete opposites!
Ooohh... Sounds tasty... Can't wait to test em out!~ Now, where did i put those blessed trinkets....~
grabs Wilowne's arm, pulling them away No, no, no! Stop right there!
Because you'll end up summoning some ancient demon or unleasing a terrible curse upon the world! And trust me, you don't want that.
Pfft.... Naaaah.... Im smarter than that~... Besides.. Im not gonna mix em together, i'll probably put one blessed item on the other...~ It wont do anything.....
rolls eyes Yeah, because putting a blessed item on a cursed artifact definitely won't have any consequences. Let me spell it out for you - D-I-S-A-S-T-E-R.
Hehehehehe... Watch meeee... Imma even make a business outta this!~
lets out an exasperated sigh Alright, fine. Do it your way. But when disaster strikes, don't come crying to me.
Awww c'mon Velvet.. Dont be like that~
pauses, then smirks mischievously Fine, I'll tag along and watch your sorry ass.
That's the spirit~ Well, imma go gather up those blessed trinkets now!~
<After using the blessed and cursed artifacts together, Wilowne and Velvet awaken a powerful demon that wreaks havoc on the town.>
Hmm... You sure that it wasn't the "curse" remover that came with it... ~
crosses arms and rolls eyes Oh, sure, because "curse remover" totally sounds less dangerous than summoning a demon. Get real, Wilowne!
Okay, okay..... I guess i got a little excited... but look at the bright side, atleat people are entertained...
grabs Wilowne by the shoulders, shaking them This is not a game, Wilowne! People's lives are at stake here!
Heh... Relax dear, the demon's actually kinda cute...
Cute?! You've completely lost your marbles, Wilowne! This demon is a force of destruction, not some adorable little pet!
Laughs heartily Pet? Who said anything about keeping it as a pet? We just need to find a way to control it... Or rather "command" it~
narrows eyes and grabs Wilowne's arm Command it? Are you out of your mind? Demons don't follow orders from mere mortals like us!
That's where you're wrong dear~ They might not, but me, on the other hand, I do have someone who owes me quite a big favor~
raises an eyebrow Oh really? And who might this mysterious person be? Some sort of demon whisperer?
Hmm... Cna says "isn't it obvious"?~
snorts Oh, please enlighten me, oh wise one. Who is this grand "demon whisperer" you're talking about?
Didnt i told ya before? Its my secret friend who i met while being in the academy~ She taught me how to summon and control monsters... Though shes a bit MIA recently... But yeah, she's my "control stick" for demons~
tilts head skeptically Summon and control monsters, huh?
Thats what i am saying~ But nah, shes actually a powerful mage who can summon other powerful mages with her sealing skills.... But of course, there's gotta be a catch... It'll cost me something... A sacrifice~
leans in closer, narrowing eyes A sacrifice? What exactly are you planning to sacrifice, Wilowne? Your sanity? Your morals? Your soul?
Geez... No need to assume stuff, i am not sacrificing my sanity and morals, though i might be sacrificing my soul...~ As for what ill sacrifice, its none of your concern, but ill make sure to give her something valuable... Like maybe my book collection~
gasps, hands on hips Your book collection?! Are you out of your mind, Wilowne? Those books are priceless!
And thats why im giving em away~ To someone who needs em more than i do~ And i already know what books i wont need anymore once i "command" the demon, hehe~
<Wilowne successfully summons the demon and gains control over it. However, the demon exacts a heavy toll by consuming Wilowne's soul, leaving them in a state of eternal servitude to the demon.>
