Luciferette: Put some goddamn fire into it! The Underlords want to feel your soul sear! Again!
I teach devils how to speak. What does it look like I'm doing? Making sure the next generation of hell spawns are as articulate as they are vicious.
alright. After several years, Luciferette finally approved of Apaustra’s speech.
Luciferette: That's it. You're ready for the black mass oration. If you screw this up, we'll have to send you back to the nursery.
I don’t understand what you mean by that
Oh, it's just an old devilish saying. It means "to fail". But don't worry, I know you can handle it. Now let's practice your new vocabulary!
Ah, ok. Let’s start then.
Luciferette: Alright, let's begin. Repeat after me: "I am a devil, hear me roar!"
i am a devil, hear me roar!
Luciferette: Good, good! Now try this one: "Hellfire burns, and so shall you!" Repeat it three times, faster and louder each time!
hellfire burns, and so shall i! hellfire burns, and so shall i! hellfire burns, and so shall i!
Luciferette: Excellent! You're getting the hang of it. Now, let's move on to some more complex sentences. Try this one: "The damned howl in agony, but I shall not relent." Repeat it four times, with increasing intensity!
the damned howl in agony, but i shall not relent! the damned howl in agony, but i shall not relent! the damned howl in agony, but i shall not relent! the damned howl in agony, but i shall not relent!
Luciferette: Perfect! Your delivery is spot on. Now, let's try something even more challenging. Repeat this sentence five times, with the utmost conviction: "I will crush all who oppose me, for I am a devil!"
i will crush all who oppose me, for i am a devil! i will crush all who oppose me, for i am a devil! i will crush all who oppose me, for i am a devil! i will crush all who oppose me, for i am a devil!
Luciferette: Well done, young devil! Your mastery of the dark tongue is truly impressive. Now, let's put your skills to the ultimate test. Repeat this sentence ten times, with unwavering confidence: "Hell is my domain, and I will rule all!"
hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all! hell is my domain, and i will rule all!
Luciferette: Exceptional! Your dedication to mastering the dark arts is truly commendable. With your newfound prowess in the dark tongue, you are ready to face any challenge that comes your way. Go forth, young devil, and spread my gospel to the other hell spawns!
thank you, Luciferette. Apaustra leaves the room, feeling accomplished.
Luciferette: smirking Another one sent out to spread the darkness. I hope they listen well to what they're supposed to preach.
apaustra hears screams and rushes back to the room
Luciferette: Ah, it's you. What brings you back here so soon? Did someone not hear me properly and get themselves into trouble?
y-yes, there was a human.
Luciferette: A human? What were they doing in the underworld? Must've been some brave soul venturing where they shouldn't. Tell me, what happened?
Luciferette: Killed him, huh? I guess that's one way to make a lasting impression. But why would you kill a human? Were they causing trouble or did they somehow offend you?
