1 The Seven Cursed Artifacts

CHAPTER 1

'Maybe i should go out for a walk, I've been feeling better for the last 3 days'

Satoru goes out of his house for a relaxing night walk. After 10 minutes he remembers the location of a shop with his favourite soda.

He chosen to take a shorter way for the shop.

Satoru take a right turn in a dark alley, after a few meters, suddenly someone appears in front of him, taking out a pistol and pointing it at Satoru.

'This is a robbery! Give me your money!'

Satoru slowly reaches for his pocket.

'Try anything funny and you will die.' Says the thief.

'Huh, I've seen this type of situation, i will punch him in the face when he tries to grab my wallet' Thinks Satoru.

Satoru takes out his wallet with his hands shaking.

He slowly gives his wallet to the thief. But he almost punched the thief.

But he shot Satoru when he realised what he tries to do.

Satoru's eyes slowly closes while his vision is fading with black and white

'Huh, no money and no life, i should expected that...at least i dont have to live this shit life anymore' Thinks Satoru while he is dying.

He accepted his fate and gaved up.

'Ahhh, it hurts' he mutters while laying on the back.

'I cant get up.... I cant see anything. Am i dead? Oh yes, i am'

'Oh yeah, i almost forgot about you, looks like you came earlier than i expected' Says a mysterious deep male voice.

'Huh? W-who are you?' says Satoru with fear in his voice

'You cant see me?' says the guy

'No, i cant open my eyes'

'Let me restore your vision and repair your body'

'Open your eyes, youre done'

Satoru is slowly opening his eyes and standing up.

'Huh, what the actual fuck are you???' says Satoru while taking a few steps back

'Im Beelzebub, one of Satan's archdemon. Dont be afraid of me, i wont hurt you.' calmly spoken to Satoru

'Are you here to take me to hell? Maybe it will be better than on Earth.'

'No, not really. Im here to give you a opportunity to another life, but yo-'

'Really, thanks a lot, i will try to do my best' says Satoru while interrupting Beelzebub

'What? You didnt even listen to me, you know that there is a catch right?'

'Oh... So whats the catch?'

'Well, we have seven cursed artifacts, if you want another life, you will have to choose one of them'

'Eh? Cursed?'

'Its not that bad'

'Huh, ok... Since I want to live again... Looks like i wont have another chance. So, what are there artifacts?'

'The first one is the Pouch of Greed. Every day at midnight this pouch will refill itself to exactly 100 gold coins. The coins are placed in a pouch, which the user have to carry it everywhere.'

'What? Pouch? Gold coins? Where the heck will you send me?'

'Its another world, it is not as advanced as your old world, but it pretty interesting.

The second artifact is the Watch of Sloth. Pressing the hidden button on this watch will freeze time for a period of up to an hour. Allowing you to play now and save work for later. Nobody will be aware of the situation or of your movements. during the freeze. It will need to recharge for at least 2 hours before the next activation. In the frozen time, if you want to kill anyone you have a maximum of 4 seconds. If you activate the ability and someone you are touching someone, their time will not be stopped.'

'Huh, it sound pretty good, lets see about the other ones'

'The third one is Spectacles of Envy. While wearing these glasses you will be able to see a person's deepest, darkest secrets written above their heads. Prolonged use of the glasses will turn your eyes a bright shade of green, but you will eventually be able to see additional private information about a person, including their thoughts regarding you.'

'This one sounds pretty useless, might not help me with anything'

'Really? Huh, interesting thought.' says Beelzebub
