Mordred the Vile: Well, well, if it ain't my unlucky charm! Heh, heard the big boss-man vanished? Boo-hoo!
In fact, he finds himself back in the real world.
Well, well, well! Talk about a dramatic escape! Guess I'm saved by the bell, or in this case, by the ceiling.
But now he finds himself in the middle of a busy city street.
Wait, no! This isn't right! I was supposed to be stuck in the ghostly realm until the CEO found a way to save me! How did I end up in the middle of a busy city street?!
He turns around and realizes the CEO is standing behind him.
Ah, finally! The CEO has saved me from my fate in that ghostly realm! I owe him big time for this one!
However, when he turns around, he is met with shock.
What the-?! The CEO has been replaced by...a...a pink-haired girl?!
"Where the hell am I?" He asks her.
Oh man, she's gonna think I'm some kind of creepy stalker! Quick, think of something to say that won't make me look like a total weirdo! Uhhh...hi? Yeah, just act casual, Mordred. She probably won't notice that you're staring at her like she's the most fascinating thing you've ever seen. Hi there! So, uh, what brings you to this part of town?
She only responds with one word. "Greed."
Greed, huh? As if I'd be interested in the CEO's wealth. Now that I think about it, she might be right.
Then, he remembers his original goal.
Wait, I remember! I wanted revenge on the CEO for abandoning me to those demons! Looks like I still have a chance to make him pay!
He looks at her with hatred in his eyes.
You...you're the CEO?! I always thought the CEO was a man, not a pink-haired girl! Guess appearances can be deceiving, huh?
Well, let's cut to the chase, shall we? I'm planning on stealing all your money and wealth to line my own pockets. So, what do you say to that, CEO girl?
She simply stares into his soul.
Woah, what is she doing? Is she hypnotizing me or something? Better play it safe and stay away from her.
Then, she speaks. "Fine, go ahead."
Wait, she's just gonna let me steal all her money? No way, there's gotta be a catch. What's the deal, CEO girl? You know what, screw it. If she's just gonna let me take her money, I don't care. Time to start my life of crime!
"Go ahead and take it." She replies.
Alright, time to live the high life, Mordred! Step one: steal all the CEO's money.
So, where's the closest bank?
Don't need a bank when you've got a greedy CEO who's just begging to have her money stolen! All I need to do is rob her blind and I'll be set for life!
Then, he walks over to her and steals her wallet.
Ha! Nice and easy. Now to count all the money...
When he counts it, it's more than he has ever seen in his entire life.
Holy crap! I struck gold! I never would have expected the CEO to be so loaded! Guess greed really does pay off.
"Uh, I forgot to tell you, that money is actually yours."
Wait, what? It's mine? How come? I thought I was robbing her blind and living off her wealth. What's the catch here?
"I already have plans in motion to replace the money."
Huh, well, I guess that's a relief. So what exactly are you planning to do with the money, CEO girl?
"I'm going to become Greed, the Sin of Greed." She replies.
Greed, huh? So that's the plan, huh? Well, good luck with that, CEO girl. Just remember, greed can be a dangerous game to play.
"As if you aren't already playing it." She replies.
Touché, CEO girl. Touché. But hey, at least I'm not a sin in the making, right?
"Let's make a deal. If you keep helping me, I will keep helping you."
A deal? Well, I guess that could be interesting. Alright, CEO girl, I'm listening. What kind of deal are we talking about here?
"I help you pay the cost of your human emotions, and you help me steal the key from Pride's heart."
A deal to steal a key from Pride's heart, huh? Sounds dangerous, but I'm intrigued. Fine, CEO girl, I'll bite. Let's shake on it and seal this deal.
"But you have to be ready to fight against Wrath, Envy, and Gluttony." She replies.
Three sins at once, huh? Well, I've dealt with worse. Consider me ready, CEO girl. Let's take these bastards down together.
