In a far off place where greed runs amuck, people bet their money hoping for the best of luck. The casino of boundless greed attracts many to fall into despair. The drug of promise and chances entices those who are foolish enough to stay. Many people have won and there are those who’ve lost. But among them, not one would expect the dark shadow that was about to befall on them.

A blue haired mask man came at the entrance and stood there looking around as if he was lost. The people who saw the blue haired masked devil only thought that he was fresh meat. Someone who’d just reach man hood not too long ago and wanted to test his mettle. But they were wrong. There a blue haired devil silently walks in and snatches away all lucks and hopes. The devil needs no real luck. For he can make his own by his will.

He entered in with twin silver cases in hand. He came up to the casino counter to verify his identity and sure enough, they allowed him. When they asked to verify the goods in his hands, he quietly opens his silver cases. In one silver case, a mountain of cash. In the other, a mystery to those who looked upon it. They all guessed it was money as well. Only the receptionists saw what was in the second silver case. They took a look inside and was flabbergasted. Within the laptop, a document was already opened. Written inside were just a few words. “Do you dare make a deal with the devil? Belphegor. Let us meet.”

The one of the receptionists was about to open the external hard drive but the blue haired man stopped them showing that it was for the person whom they worked for. The receptionists couldn’t help but to feel chills down to their very bones when they saw the word Belphegor. Thus they let him passed and into the casino.

They exchanged all five hundred thousand D and turned them casino multipurpose tenders. The man walked right into the slot machine section to pick a machine to use to pass the time. The air within that second turned cold. Everyone did not know why it was so cold, but the hair on their arms stood up and it looked as if the hair itself was scared and wanted to jump off. In the span of half an hour, the people who played the slot machine saw a frightening sight. Most of the slot machines ran out of money but the man was just casually hitting three sevens continuously as if it was nothing! Only ten slot machines were left with money inside. The people who saw this gulped with envy and greed. “How much money was he carrying? How much money has he won?”

The blue haired man soon became bored and left not only carrying a cart of coins, but multiple suit cases of cash in which he exchanged the already won money. Even the staffs soon had to get a bigger suitcase for the blue haired man to carry. They even had to help him carry some of the money. Only seven slot machines were left with coins and money inside.

There were those who wanted to take his money from him but had no courage to do it. They already saw the scene where one man came up to rob him with a gun while the blue haired masked man was still playing at the slot machines. But his arms and legs were mercilessly broken without much of an effort. His teeth were removed one by one and screams of all octaves rang aloud for everyone to hear.

A second man tried to snipe the blue haired masked man with a long rifle. But to many people’s surprises, the blue haired man did not even look at the sniper but instead took a gun from the first man and shot the second man’s arms permanently crippling him. The first man was lucky enough that his arms and legs can be healed. But if a body part was blasted off, there was no hopes of getting them back.

But the victims who came out to group murder him came out worse. It was not one person who came up to him to rob him, but ten. But all ten failed in a horrible manner. The blue haired man rampaged and silently beat them all down till they were all black and blue. He then forcibly smash each fingers they had to pieces. He then slowly made long slow cuts along their arms to show his cruelty. After having enough 'fun', the blue haired man repositioned himself, brushed off the dirt and walked away as if nothing had happened.

The entire time, the blue haired man did not take a life but only limbs. As the people who saw him fight, be brought their lives to a close by taking their limbs. Living as a cripple, how could his victims bear to go on in life? But the words he last said to his victims was, "Live life in a more decent manner helping people and do good deeds. Don't ever come back into the darkness. If you do, I'll make sure to do more than what I did today." These were words not to scare them to death, but to keep people away from this dark place. The blue haired man wanted not one person to die but to live even when they are at a disadvantage for not only their sake but for others and to help others while living.

The people saw that the blue haired man was not strong in terms of raw strength but cruelness. He was not faster but had the ability to read many moves ahead and thus had the advantage over them. He was not stronger than many of the ten, but he knew how to reduce their strengths greatly and made it look like he was fighting children.

For a man like him to take so many people on and coming out as nothing, how was he raised? Who’d raised such a monster? A person who exuded such an ice cold atmosphere should not and could not exist in this world! But the very proof existed in front of them. A real spawn from hell walked right in front of them.

He emitted an air of zero hesitations and no emotions. The shadow beneath his feet formed small devil like wings. But what was really shocking was the slot machines. A total of one hundred slot machines and of those hundreds, two were left with one coin, three had six coins inside, and the rests were zeroes. The first slot machine was left with one coin, the second to fourteenth slot machine had none, and the fifteenth to seventeenth had six coins inside. At first, they thought it was all a coincidence. But when they inspected the rest of the slot machines, the eighteenth to thirtieth had all zeroes and the thirty first only had one left. This repeated three times in successions with the remainders being left alone.

“Belphegor” the word rang across the casino as if it was a curse. Everyone who heard it froze.

They all kept their eyes on the blue haired masked man walking around leisurely as if it was a sunny day. But the bloody background contrasted his mood and was almost the scene of a devil himself smiling.

The blue haired masked man then saw gambling tables of roulettes and cards. Those who met his eyes, had cold sweat running profusely down their faces. But they couldn’t do a thing to chase him away. Instead, they continued like normal and hoped that he does not take all the money away.

But the blue haired masked man did. Within one to two bets, most of the tables soon emptied out of their money supply and into his pockets. The blue haired man soon left in a good mood and continued onto the next few tables until only three tables were left with money. In the span of an hour, he cleared two hundred and seventeen tables of their cash and the same pattern repeated on the tables as it did with the slot machine.

“BOSS!!! You’ve got to help us! A blue haired man is about to eat us dry!!!” A staff came in crying. But he then saw the boss crying tears of blood as well. It was understandable. The blue haired man created miracles as if it was nothing. In the eyes of others, they would see this as a bad joke! But to those who are dealt with such a hand by the devil, they could only sit and cry.

“Just let him be… If we mess with him, not only this casino will be gone, but all of our chain casinos, supporters, sponsors and even customers will be ruined.” The boss cried. His painstaking efforts were being taken as if it was candy but there was not a thing he could do. It was because he already knew Belphegor a long time ago. Six years ago, they saw a kid entering the dark world earning money and creating the devil’s luck without much efforts. When they tried to crush Belphegor to end this devious monstrosity, a great catastrophe ensued.

They found that Belphegor was no older than twelve at the time and thought he was easy to handle but still went all out to crush him and his family. But just as quick as they came. Belphegor was captured easily. At first, Belphegor did not show any signs of retaliation. He did not mind being tortured, beaten or humiliated. Strangely, drugs had no effects on him and would be consumed by his cells as nutrients. But when they touched his family, Belphegor went mad. Not only did the aggressor suffered, those related to them suffered no matter how small it was. Be it family, friend, acquaintances, or someone you’d just met by looking at them in the eye. There was no true justice when Belphegor went on a rampage.

Not one person forgotten what’d transpired a long time ago when he did rampage. When it came time for Belphegor to punish someone, people claimed that could feel a silent darkness slowly strangling the life out of them. Within a night, a person's life was ruined with secrets exposed and all. Within a few days, entire stocks fell and a business was ruined. Within a week, an entire network fell. He did not take lives. “But they all lived their lives as if they were dead” some people stated when they saw Belphegor’s victims. There were people who were afraid of the very name. Those who tried to imitate him had their life shattered as well. Thus there were not many who dared to falsify their identity.

Alone, Belphegor was called the one man army and was given the name Lucifer for being able to destroy an entire family’s future by himself showing little to no signs of a bright future. When he commanded people, the underworld called him the fallen seraphim and commander of hell, Beelzebub. Only when he was neutral as he is now did they call him Belphegor. Belphegor disappeared all of a sudden in just a few months but left the underworld slightly crippled but still repairable. Not a single news of him made many people happy and thus the underworld slowly rebuilt their network. No one was willing to go after Belphegor.

They had no choice but to leave him alone. The boss also knew Belphegor well. He was not the type of person to suck a business dry when he is in a good mood. At best, he would take just fifty percent of a business’ money and walk away without coming back.

The boss sighed and prayed that he would go away soon. But the receptionists down below came up and told the boss of the message that Belphegor had on his laptop. The boss’ eyes shined with hope and instantly barked to bring Belphegor up.

Belphegor/Jin, hearing this smiled coldly and walked right up to meet the boss. The boss who saw Belphegor warmly greets him with a smile. In front of him was a man who’d once ruined an entire underground network! How could he not be warm when greeting Belphegor? “Leave us” the boss commaned his subordinates to leave him and Belphegor alone.

Belphegor did not take off the mask but instead bowed to greet him. This gave the boss a strange feeling. Almost as if the Belphegor in front of him was not the same as the one six years ago. But that idea was quickly erased when Belphegor slammed the second silver suitcase down.

In a low and cold voice, Belphegor commanded him to, “Bring me information. All of them.”

No normal person would listen to someone so commanding. But the person in front of him was different. He attached the external hard drive to the laptop and inside were videos. A long chain of black mail videos. Proof of corruptions among politicians, business people, and those of the underworld. Revealing even a small video could cause a catastrophe and would engulf entire business to be ruined. But there were more inside. Dark secrets, documents, and all inside of that external hard drive.

Belphegor opened one of the video and inside was the scene of a dying family. All five contracted a deadly disease and not many can cure it. The boss’ eyes turned red and streamed down tears of despair. It was his entire family that was being played. His family had a hereditary disease in their genes and about half of them died from the disease. A disease that could paralyze a person, decay their mental state, and slowly cease all functions in the body at any given time. I could also be a slow process as well till they reach their limits. But what was worse was that it can be passed on through sexual intercourse. The boss did not know until he heard it from his grandfather who had the same disease. But the most important scene that was being played was his wife, sons and daughters in the hospital slowly dying from this disease.

“I’ll help you cure them if you give me information on these people” Belphegor’s voice rang like bell. It lit a flame of hope in the casino boss’ eyes. “I can help you as well and to ensure that your family and those future generations will never have this disease ever again. But I need your help. Will you do it?”

When he heard this, he instantly got on his knees and repeatedly bowed his head to the floor making loud sounds. He repeatedly agreed and begged Belphegor with all his might and saying, “I’ll do it! I’ll do it!” He even said that he would do whatever it takes to cure this hereditary disease. Knowing what type of person Belphegor is, he did not hesitate or questioned the validity of his promise. It was because Belphegor already created miracles many times before in front of him. If this miracle could befall on him and his family, he would do anything to make it happen.

“Good. I’ll come back within three days. On the first day, your wife will be cured. On the second day, your sons and daughters will be cured. On the third day, I’ll come to collect the information and will do my best to cure you. Know that since you were the source, the efforts in curing you will take much more effort and the chances are lower. Only your wife and children have a guaranteed chance of being cured. Your chance is at best fifty-fifty” Belphegor said.

Hearing these words were enough to capture the boss’ heart. He did not care for himself but he did care about his family. If there was even a sliver of hope, he would take it. Now hearing that it is guaranteed for his wife and children, he was even more determined to fulfill his promise.

“I’ll also need this money in order to cure them. I hope you won’t have any grudges in me using this money to cure you and your family.” Belphegor smiled under the mask.

“None. None at all. If you really can make miracles, I won’t mind making a deal with the devil himself” the boss bawled. This made Jin feel bad because it was almost him taking advantage of him. But it wasn’t like he had a choice. Belphegor then lifts the boss back into his seat.

Jin/Belphegor, packs away his things with the laptop, hard drive, and all, took the suitcases with him and the money away into the darkness leaving the casino in a silent and cold manner.

The casino boss, inside the room had a resolute light in his eyes. His voice boomed, "Close down the entire casino! And do whatever it took to find information per Belphegor’s request!" Hearing this, The staffs couldn’t help but to feel shocked. “Who is this blue haired man named Belphegor who could get their boss to be so worked up?” some of the staffs asked each other. But some knew that the blue haired masked man was someone big. Just that they didn’t know how big.

Only few came to the conclusion that the blue haired man and the youth six years ago was one in the same. Some muttered the name of Belphegor softly like an omen. The omen of the return of Belphegor. But this time, they felt like he would turn the underworld upside down permanently.
