4 Lord of the Flies

A few weeks later life was... certainty interesting now. Helltaker and the girls had taken GURPS being an eldritch entity called a Great One surprisingly well all things considered.

Judgement was mainly surprised to lean just how much he was holding back in his fight against her while Azazel was fascinated and would constantly ask GURPS about Great Ones and the world he came from, she even started a new subject to study them that would be next to her studies on demonology. 

Malina was indifferent and Modeus thought it was hot and would ask GURPS to... do stuff with his tendrils sometimes, he hasn't yet.

The house became much more hectic with these multiple demon women living under the same roof but GURPS used his power to BEND reality and give the house more space and room than before. 

One end of the house was for his bedroom plus his girlfriends while the other end had the bedrooms of Helltaker and his girlfriends.

Since there were two of them they handled taking care of their respective harem's easy enough but it wasn't always easy since these are demons we're talking about. 

GURPS at least had the power to handle himself better but Helltaker was still only human so he couldn't always keep up with his girls. He actually ended up making a pact with GURPS to give him the strength to handle them better. 

The deal they made was GURPS enhancing his body basically making him more of a super soldier and in return GURPS would get to ask Helltaker to do tasks for him occasionally like a part time minion almost. 

GURPS also used some insight to learn how to make the very delicious pancakes that Helltaker knows how to make, currently they both finished making some pancakes as they went to pass them out to the girls around the house, GURPS finds Modeus first as she's reading a novel. 

GURPS: "You're reading... a romantic comedy?" 

Modeus: "Never heard of this romance stuff before. it's the kinkiest thing I've ever seen... maybe I've been doing things wrong all this time?" 

GURPS: "...do you wanna go on a date later this week?" 

The lustful demon got way more red and flustered than GURPS had ever seen her before surprisingly. 

Modeus: "I've always known you were a prevented degenerate!"

GURPS: "We could even.... hold hands!" 

That got Modeus even more heated up and in a mood, GURPS couldn't resist teasing her like that once he found out that she found classic romantic stuff to be a big turn on for herself. 

Modeus: "...maybe this Friday?" 

GURPS nodded and gave her a pancake before moving on, he next came across Malina as she was browsing on her phone. 

Malina: "Do you know how hard it is to find new turn based strategies we could play? Almost everything mankind has produced is either a half-assed sequel or a shitty ripoff!"

GURPS: "True true... I'd like to play them anyways tbh"

Malina: "Same here, unfortunately... we will need a lot of alcohol" 

GURPS: "Alcohol doesn't do anything for me anymore..."

Malina: "Then I'll need it"

GURPS: "Don't worry, I'll check some alternate universes or timelines at some point for better games"

Malina: "You can do that? wait of course you can, I keep forgetting your some powerful Great One" 

GURPS gives her a pancake and then moves on to Azazel, he finds her standing by the wall with a 1000 yard stare on her face. 

Azazel: "How long have I been here?" 

GURPS: "About a few weeks"

Azazel: "It feels like forever. The things I've seen... the things I've done... I could write a spectacular paper on this but nobody would believe me, it's just too surreal" 

GURPS: "....oh"

He felt a bit bad for indirectly helping corrupt the pure angel who wasn't so pure anymore most likely, nonetheless Azazel seemed to perk up now. 

Azazel: "And my research has barley scratched the surface. Wanna join me in my studies today?"

GURPS: "Maybe tomorrow, right now just eat some pancakes, you've been studying too much me thinks"

After giving a Pancake to Azazel, Helltaker walks over to GURPS and taps him on the shoulder. 

GURPS: "Yeah? what's up?"

Helltaker: "Cerberus just informed me that they did... something, I don't know what but the police are outside the door now" 

They both sigh 

GURPS: "I'll handle it"

The Great One then walks over to Judgement who's on guard cause of the sirens from outside. 

Judgement: "TRESPASSERS SEEK TO INVADE OUR DOMAIN! SHOULD I DISPOSE OF THEM?" 

GURPS: "No need I'll take care of this, have a pancake"

Judgement: "Sure, have fun"

She eats her pancake as GURPS heads to the door to hear some loud knocking. 

Police 1: "POLICE! OPEN THE DOOR!"

He opens the door to see two police women

GURPS: "Pancakes and some chocolate milk i made?"

Police 1: "Oh thanks. we still have questions though" 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

GURPS spent an hour talking with the cops and convincing them that nothing was wrong here and to look elsewhere, after doing that he then finds Helltaker doing some odd movements on a rug. 

GURPS: "What are you doing?"

Helltaker: "I found these stone plates back in hell that talked about some magic thing you could do if you did certain movements on a pentagram. I've been trying to get it down out of curiosity" 

GURPS: "...So you found a random spell in Hell and decided to do it without knowing what it does?" 

Helltaker: "...yes..."

GURPS: "...step aside and hand me the tablets, let's at least let the immortal one try this"

Helltaker hands GURPS the tablets and after checking the instructions he proceeds to do the correct movements across the rug as he feels some magic respond and a purple portal opens up in the living room. 

A giant monstrous looking red bug monster is seen on the other side of the portal once GURPS and Helltaker peak in. 

?????: "What is this? did somebody open a portal at last?" 

The monster then see's GURPS 

?????: "Greetings little one. I am Beelzebub and you must be the chosen one, the King of Hell... that means I am nothing but your humble servant. Why not enter this gateway and take your rightful throne?" 

Lucifer then walks over to see what's happening. 

Lucifer: "Hey, is this a one-way banishment portal?" 

Beelzebub: "....F***"

Lucifer: "Beel! And here I hoped I'd never see your face again"

Beelzebub: "Feelings mutual my dear Lucy"

Helltaker: "Old friend of yours?" 

"Lucy" eats a pancake after scoffing at "Beel" a bit. 

Lucifer: "Don't believe a single word from Beelzebub the exiled. Most dangerous kind of demon forever sealed inside the abyss" 

GURPS: "That dangerous huh?"

Lucifer: "Ask Justice, she was the High Prosecutor back then"

Justice walks over after overhearing 

Justice: "It was awesome! wish you'd have seen that epic battle!"

Lucifer: "If you step into that portal, your soul will get imprisoned too, only madness awaits for you there... though for GURPS I guess you'd be fine considering your nature but I still wouldn't recommend it"

Beelzebub: "I've been here for quite some time and found no madness yet... Quite disappointing really. A bit of mad would be refreshing, all you can find here is darkness and loneliness" 

Lucifer: "Just ignore this pest, I'll close the portal after dinner" 

Beelzebub: "I'll get out one day"

Lucifer: "We'll be ready"

Justice and Lucifer leave while GURPS stares back at the portal... he felt kind of sorry for Beelzebub in all honesty. 

Something to note about Great Ones is that they are naturally very sympathetic beings in nature, the issue comes in how they decide to help someone they may have sympathy for, because what they consider helpful may be harmful to the human in question. 

Hearing Beelzebub talk about how dark and lonely her prison is... he found his natural Great One instincts plus his human morality he had from before making him compassionate and urging him to do something to help her in some way. 

GURPS: "Hey Helltaker? can you hold down the fort for about let's say... 30 minutes?"

Helltaker: "Um sure? Are you going somewhere?"

GURPS: "For a bit yes, don't worry I'll be back soon enough" 

After checking something with his insight and thinking of some ideas, GURPS jumps straight into the portal as it closes behind him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He finds himself in a dark void that honestly didn't bother him too much... it felt surprisingly warm for him, he assumes it's cause he's an eldritch entity reborn with void that he feels fine here.

He hears the sound of buzzing and then see's Beelzebub appear and move over to see what's going on. 

Beelzebub: "What is it now-wait what? you? how did you... I simply can't believe you just did that"

GURPS: "Believe it!"

Beelzebub: "Did you really buy that King of Hell crap? No that can't be it... so why?"

GURPS: "Short answer, I felt sorry and had a Proposition for you... also saw something nice with my insight as a bonus but yeah"

Beelzebub: "Proposition? what could you-"

GURPS then proceeds to transform into his more Great One looking form, while not his true form it was a form of his Eldritch Great One self that could actually be seen better. He became a black Great One with long arms and legs and tendrils all along his back and head. 

(Looks like the creature in the cover of the story) 

Beelzebub because of being in this void for so long and also cause she was a powerful demon seemed to have gotten a taint of the void of sorts. Because of this she could handle seeing this form of his better than most would even among other demons. 

Beel is surprised at the form and can feel the sheer unimaginable endless power emanating from GURPS, she is very much speechless and after a few more seconds GURPS turns back into his human form once again. 

GURPS: "As you can see and feel, I am far from human. I think you'll find my deal worth listening too" 

Beelzebub: "...well before we talk I think a proper introduction should be made. I am known by many names-ah were are my manners, I have a guest, I should make myself more presentable" 

She then transforms as her body changes from the fly monster into a more human looking form of a demon similar to the other girls, she has a fancy red suit on as well. 

Beelzebub: "Here. I think you will find this form a little more comfortable to converse with" 

GURPS: "Very much so, thanks"

Beelzebub: "Now where was I... ah yes! Known as the mistress of flies and the queen crimson just to name a few! Pleased to make your acquaintance"

GURPS: "I am GURPS, the Neo Great One, the endless night, an eldritch entity, Outer God or whatever you want to call me"

Beelzebub: "Welcome to the abyss, make yourself at home for now. Here's an idea! I'll show you around my castle as we walk and talk, I think you'll love what I did with the place"

GURPS: "You managed to make a castle in this place?"

She seems to get a bit nervous and insecure looking as she takes out a white cloth and wipes some sweat off her face in a quick fashion before speaking in a nervous but cute tone. 

Beelzebub: "Why yes, I've built it myself. You'd be surprised what kind of stuff can be made from the very fabric of darkness once you get better and using it... abyssal exile makes you seek the weirdest hobbies."

GURPS: "Kinda impressed not gonna lie"

She seems to calm down as GURPS takes something out of his shadow... or at least where his shadow would have been since it's a pure black abyss. 

Beelzebub: "You brought something with you? If I'd known you'd do that I would have asked for some sweets, demons love sugar" 

GURPS: "Chocolate Pancakes, enjoy"

He hands her the plate as she seems surprised and hungry

Beelzebub: "...this is the best day of my life"

*GLORIOUS SUCCESS* 

She walks him back to her castle as she happily munches on the pancakes. 

GURPS: "So let's talk business" 

Beelzebub: "What kind?"

GURPS: "Well there would be some rules to follow but... how would you like to be free from the void?" 

Beelzebub: "...I'm listening"

Our Neo Great One smirks before pulling out some paper and pen 

GURPS: "I know demons have a thing for these so... how about a contract? We'll discuss the details before signing"
