No Strings Attached

Preperation

Will: "You wouldn't even give me a chance?"

Carmila: "I have no reason to, the only reason I even let you in is because you mentioned a proposal."

Will: "Yeah, but that can be worked out later."

Carmila: "If you want to play games then this is over."

She turned around and started walking away.

Will: "Where are you going?"

Carmila: "Away, I implore that you leave."

Will: "You think I'll let you just walk away?"

Carmila: "I don't need your permission, I'm not one of your little toys."

William glared at her, strings already moving in to strike. Clicks were heard around the room.

Carmila: "You know what's the most important part of building a company in hell, William?"

Will: "What would that be?"

Carmila: "A proper security."

William tilted his head in confusion before looking around the room.

There was nothing. There were no tables, no paintings, not even potted plants. There was nothing in the room, nothing to give him reason to question his safety.

Was it a trick? Perhaps a Distraction? no. She was still standing there. He focused on the only thing that decorated the room. The cameras. In a short moment, he saw it, if he wasn't looking for it he would have missed it. Something in the camera lens moved in a rotating manner similar to that of a machine gun.

He chuckled. Carmila specialized in modification and anything to do with weapons, including traps. The most likely scenario is that the camera guns were packed with angelic bullets. the only thing that can permanently kill him. He lost this time.

Sure he could control Carmila's soul, but what good would that do if he was shot repeatedly with angelic bullets? He might be strong but even he cannot underestimate the nature of angelic steal.

He had no choice but to relent this time.

Will: "Fine, I'm going to compete with some collogues in a friendly game and I need some airsoft guns and the upper hand in equipment."

Carmila: "And why do you think I would have fake guns at my company?"

Will: "You sell most of hell's weapons, I'm sure it's nothing above you to modify some of your premade ones."

Carmila: "And what of the princess would she also require a weapon of her own?"

Charlie blushed and waved her hands in the air.

Charlie: "I would be fine with whatever."

Will: "She would also be taking some specialized equipment. She is my teammate after all."

Carmila: "Hm... I don't usually do these types of modifications but it can be done, however, what would I receive in doing so?"

Will: "I can agree to a contract that prohibits me from touching both you and your daughters for the rest of eternity. So long as they don't start a fight with me first. Don't want them to have any ideas now, do we? I'm not asking for much after all."

Carmila stayed silent for a moment. In her head, this seemed too good to be true, both she and her daughters would forever be free from the shadow of that demon, and all she would have to do was make some toys for him.

Carmila: "I accept, any specific weapon you would like."

William smiled.
