Mammon greeted our sight with what seemed to be his current form.

I remember that Mammon in the pictures Plutus showed to us didn't looked like this… Mammon resembled a tall giant with no apparent gender, although he preferred to be called a male.

He didn't showed a face as he covered himself with the skull of a goat. And his body was covered in cloths, gold, and all sorts of riches around him. He was silent and usually calm. But since he changed, he became different.

Even his form shaped itself differently… Plutus said that Mammon could take the form that he "saw himself as" like any other Prince of Hell. This was because they were not demons or shapeshifters, but Archangels of the original ones. So they held incredible powers.

When they turned from Archangel to Archdemons, their bodies and appearances were "tainted" as they felt themselves stained from their holy figures and origins too, so they ended looking differently than before as if it were a natural mutation or evolution of their very selves.

So naturally as his the shape or form of how he seems himself as changed, he would also change… and he indeed changed, he was now very different from the pictures or paintings he had of himself.

"How are you doing, Kireina-chan~? I've been waiting for you this entire time! You're the one that did this to my mind, but to be honest, your memories really made me realize that this world was way too boring for me." He said.

Mammon had changed due to something I had not expected. I had thought that the parasites I left on his soul would had been suppressed and destroyed by him on its due time but… they weren't, but they didn't took over him completely either.

He appears to have devoured them back.

Indeed, instead of me devouring him from the inside, he devoured them while they devoured him, and both devoured each other, fusing instead of taking over one another, forming… what was now the "new" Mammon.

He was now an adorable girlish boy. His skin was still charcoal black like his original skin was, and his eyes glowed with bright crimson-red light but were big and cute. He had a slender body, but his hips and thighs were strangely plump for a boy, making him look oddly sexy. He had long red nails, and even longer black hair, reaching his feet.

There were two golden goat horns growing from each side of his head, and currently, he was wearing an adorable black and red dress, crossdressing.

"My lord had never done such things before, but he even began to cross-dress, to act girly, and even to flirt with everyone in some strange and bizarre ways…"

I recalled Plutus words from back then… as of now Mammon looked like a girl to me, but he was once identified as a male, right? Well, archangels and archdemons don't have gender, they change it around as they like, or have none. So this doesn't matter at the end, he can become a girl, a boy, or none.

"Y-You're really Mammon?" I asked.

"Yeah! I am! I have changed… I have become someone completely different, honestly, I don't know if I am really the one, I used to be before, and its all because of your fault." Sighed Mammon while waving his head and raising his shoulders as if shrugging.

"You're… you fused with…?" I asked.

"Bingo! I did! I ended like this because I used everything I possibly could to destroy these bits of you mixing with me, but at the end, it was impossible, your power, specifically your Trait, was already in effect in these parasites, and they were pathetically lucky because they always resisted my power and ended absorbing it and growing stronger…! At the end I devoured them, and they ended devouring me in a constant cycle, until one day I woke up feeling different… and I had a bunch of your memories with me now… So I got to know ALL about you, Kireina! Everything! Well, everything up until the point of the parasite's creation… And let me tell you, you're one cheeky little bitch." Said Mammon.

"Huh… You're really very different compared to how I thought you were, Mammon. Well, I have to admit it, you look pretty cute." I said.

"Ah…"

"Huh? Did I threw you off?" I laughed.

"R-Really?! Am I cute?" he asked while blushing adorably, he looked at me as if he were being fascinated by my praises.

Don't tell me he likes being praised because he's cute now?

Wait, maybe this way I can calm his anger.

"Yeah, indeed, you're in fact incredibly cute, Mammon. You're the cutest boy I've ever seen in all of hell!" I said.

"Ooohh?! R-Really~? Oh my! Oh my! See, Plutus? I am really the cutest! Ahh~ I am so happy that someone finally recognizes my adorableness!" he said.

"Y-Yeah…" I muttered.

"But! This doesn't change the fact you did something pretty terrible to me! I should really just kill you now that I got the opportunity!" he said, his entire aura emanated such a powerful pressure that everything around us simply stopped.

He slowly walked towards me with a malicious smile, his crimson-red eyes shone brightly, as if he wanted to slaughter me right in the spot.

His nails grew into long red claws, pointing them at me maliciously…

"Kireina… You're really a cheeky woman to think you can get away by doing this to me, you know? But to be honest, I am also quite perplexed by how shameless you can get." He said, pointing the claws at me.

"Mammon… Let's make a deal." I said.

"Oohoh~? That's my line, dear Kireina-chan~! Let's indeed make a deal you and me, we'll wreck Hell, and then probably invade Genesis too, why not? You want that, right? I want it too now that I absorbed your memories." Said Mammon.

"Now you're talking business." I said with a smile.

"Fufu~" he giggled.

It seems that things were going to get even more interesting.
