“But anywho, let’s go get you to sign my contract.” says Agai, the anger god.

While walking through this giant palace, I spot a guy walking around with a clipboard in his hands. “Hey Agai, who is that handsome guy?” I ask while pointing to him. All Agai does is roll his eyes and keep walking. The guy must have seen me point because he looks up from his clipboard, and walks over to me. “Me? I’m just Daniel, the handsome devil”. Crap, he heard me, didn’t he? Wait, did he just say devil? I thought only gods can come here. I realize he is still looking at me and I look away, flustered. “Devil?” I ask. “Yeah. I’m a devil. Someone has to keep track of the stuff going on. We wouldn’t be at peace like this if it weren't for me.” Daniel replies. “And according to a very pretty girl, I’m a devil that is handsome.” I feel like all my blood left my body and now resides in my face.
“Hah hah! Did I make the girl blush?”
“Y-yeah..” I replied
“Well you better catch up to Agai or he will leave you behind.”
What? Ahh! He didn’t even wait for me! “Th-Thank you!” I yell as I run off to Agai.
Now that I have caught up, Agai asks “So, did you find out who the ‘handsome guy’ was?” Does he not know there is a spy in the midst? Is that why he let me talk to him? I swear I think that Daniel is cute, but he's a devil. All devils are bad, right? “Yeah, his name is Daniel and that’s all I got out of the guy. He didn’t have to say it, but I’m sure he is a player.” Agai actually laughed at this. This big oaf can laugh? I don’t need to know him for long to know that he doesn’t laugh on a daily basis. “Daniel sure is popular with the ladies!” Agai says. After a few moments of silent walking, we come to a room that has a door sign reading “Agai”. Must be his room is the god palace. “Come on and close the door! You have a contract to sign.” I take a second to bask in the mystifying features of this room. The crystal chandelier, the window back wall that connects to a balcony. Oh, the balcony! I shut the room door and went to walk to the balcony when Agai grabs my wrist and stops me. “Sign. Now.” He points to a piece of paper and hands me a pen. “Ughh fine” I don’t even read the contract and sign it. As I’m signing the places I need to, my name glows and turns a gold-like color. I should trust the gods since they are “all-powerful deities”. “Done! Now can I go? Like, go see my mother?” Agai starts laughing. “Did you not read the thing? You cannot leave Gemoor, and your life is now mine.” Oh wow. I put way too much trust into this guy. I should probably get on his good side for now. “Haha of course I read it, silly! I just wanted to know if I could tell my mother I will be gone for a while so she doesn’t make any trouble in the future.” I really hope he buys it. He is standing there, pondering it, and finally says “You get thirty minutes, no more, no less, and I will be listening in on the whole conversation.” That’s actually better than I thought. It's obvious he doesn't trust me, but I will earn his trust, and when I do, he will regret everything he has ever done to me and my family.
