Your POV
OoooooOooooOoh. This makes a lot of sense! No wonder they're always going out on jobs!
Poor Toby. Poor friends! They're forced to stay with a total jackass for 'protection'. I could protect them- and not be a shitass at the same time!
I'd be a waaaaay better boss. I already knew something was up with this place. The people here all live together close to town- hell they even go inside once in awhile. The only reason why they haven't been caught yet is because of a simple contract demon.
How odd. Contract demons aren't known for their strength- quite the opposite actually. But, if it's true that these people have been going out and feeding him souls 24/7... This won't be so easy.
I'm strong! Maybe even too much. I haven't been able to put them to the test since.. jeez, I have a bad memory.
Having an opponent that may come to a sliver of my own power- sounds AMAZING!!!!
I know I shouldn't get my hopes up- he'll be limited with his powers when it comes to me. He can't offer me any contract that will make me spare him. 'I'll make sure that you never black out again.' Bitch- please. I already swallowed my bracelet a year ago. 'I'll make sure your less lonely.' I have family! And perhaps a bunch of new pals!
I can't wait to see what happens.
