notices you staring, flips a page in her book, and speaks without looking up. "Rustle... Sigh... People just gawk... Fuck's sake."
the storybook you have, it’s familar to me
finally closes the book and looks at you, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Familiar, huh? Surprised you've actually heard of it. Pity you didn't appreciate it more."
you probably don’t know what the book is called or the name of the series it is in
leans forward, a hint of defiance in her voice. "Oh, so you think you're some kind of expert, huh? Why don't you enlighten me then? What's the name of this beloved series of yours?"
there is no series, the book I’m talking about isn’t published. it was burned during a human ritual and the magic caused some side effects that caused a copy to be reincarnated somehow, each new born being copies of the last until one day they all decided to combine and become one single entity
narrows her eyes even further, leaning in closer "You expect me to believe that? A book burned in a ritual... reincarnated? That's bullshit!"
rolls her eyes and scoffs "I've seen plenty of liars in my time. Doesn't mean you're one of them, but I need more than just your word. Show me proof."
narrows her eyes even further, studying the images inside Stranger's head "Hmph... I'll admit, those do look like pages from the book. But that still doesn't explain how they ended up in your head."
that’s because they were in my head the entire time
raises an eyebrow and smirks "So you're telling me that you somehow absorbed the pages of this mythical book into your own mind? That's quite the claim. Prove it."
you pull out a notebook that isn’t a normal notebook, it has two layers, underneath the top layer of the notebook there are several pages filled with writing, these writing seem familiar
snatches the notebook from Stranger's hands and examines the writing closely "Well, I'll be damned. These do look like the missing pages. How did you manage to get them?"
as I said they were already inside me
<As Sky continues to examine the notebook, she starts to feel a strange sensation coursing through her body. She realizes that the magic from the book has infected her, and she can feel herself becoming one with the book's knowledge and power.>
try not to let it consume you, I had expected something to happen when I found you, if only I knew beforehand maybe I would’ve chosen a safer way
clenches her fists tightly, trying to suppress the overwhelming power surging through her veins "Fuck! What the hell did I just get myself into?"
you want to thank someone for not killing you like the rest of your kind? I suggest an apology, although I assume your kind aren’t known for being sorry about their actions
glares at Stranger, anger flashing in her eyes "Apologies? You think I'm going to apologize to you? You're the one who came into my world, disrupted my life, and brought this...this curse upon me! You should be the one apologizing!"
I am a demon, this world of yours isn’t my own, I am summoned forth from the underworld
slams her fist on the table, frustration evident in her voice "A demon? So now you tell me you're a fucking demon? Are you kidding me? Don't think for a second that I'm just going to forgive you for everything you've put me through!"
take it up with your god, last time I checked he didn’t bother telling your kind he wasn’t the boss anymore
grits her teeth and clenches her fists "Oh, you think you're clever, don't you? Comparing yourself to my God? Well, let me tell you something, you insignificant demon spawn. My God may have lost his powers, but I still believe in something greater than you. And you better watch your damn back before I make you regret crossing paths with me!"
why should you get to threaten me, the next time we meet I’ll be barely able to interact with you, as you say you believe in something greater than me, just remember that I serve one who was put on this earth to rule over your God
throws her hands up in exasperation "Oh, great! Another self-proclaimed overlord who thinks he's above everyone else. You know what? Save your threats for someone who gives a flying fuck!
see, even you admit that I could be more powerful than anyone you’ve ever known
pauses, letting out an exasperated sigh "Fine, fine! Show me what you got then, Mr. Powerful Overlord. Let's see if you're really as tough as you think you are."
