Hazbin Hotel: Story of Cain

After that 'nice' conversation with what I knew, which wasn't that much in my opinion but for Alastor it was clearly plenty.

I admitted I have no clue how to break his chains, and even admitted that I'm so familiar because I once had those chains over 10,000 years ago, but 'she' was the one who freed me of her own choice as in her mind I had completed my end of the deal by shaping hell how she wanted, along with what I believed to have been a hidden agreement in my contract with needing to kill a total of 10,000 angels as soon after I achieved that my chains had broken.

But since Alastor doesn't have that power I highly doubt that's in his contract at all, so all he has to do is know every detail of the contract and the only way to do that is enter the Abyss and meet her personally.

Though I made it very clear is that you don't go to her, she will bring you too her when she so desires, so now it was just a waiting game for him, and in the meantime he can just focus on the hotel and deal with all the problems that come their way.

Soon enough we joined the rest as they saw we were both in a good mood, though everyone knew that a deal was made as everything shook when it happened after all.

"Uncle Cain…. Is everything alright?" Charlie said a bit concerned as she looked between both me and Alastor.

We just looked between eachother before I turned back to her, "Oh Charlie there's nothing to worry about, yes I made a simple deal with Alastor but it's nothing you need to worry your little head over." I say patting her shoulder to calm her down.

*Knock Knock Knock*

"Hmm? We're you expecting more visitors?" I mutter as Vaggie goes and opens the door.

"Oh! Um, hi?" *Thwack!* "Ahh! My face!" I heard a familiar sounding snake which promptly just got punched in the face by Vaggie before falling to the ground.

[Abba: Money Money Money](Plays)

"Hmm? Why is he calling? Charlie I got to take this, have fun dealing with what's his face." I say with a wave before I head on upstairs to take the call.

"Mammon! Haven't heard from you in a bit, how are things?" I ask although a grimace as I could hear him scarfing down food in the background.

"Haha! Ahh it's good to hear from you Business Partner, and nothing much really, just raking in all the money I can get, God I can't get enough of the stuff, you know how sexy money is to me I-"

"Would fuck it if you could, if money was a woman you'd marry her, and that you even want to have a sex doll made out of money, I know, you love to brag how much you love money." I say with an eyeroll but that just gets him to laugh.

"Ha! You know me too well man! Anyway I called as I was wondering if your interested in showing up to my annual clown pageant in a few months?" He said expectly as I hadn't gone to any of the ones prior before.

"Mammon…. You know I can read you like a book right? You just want me their to hype it even higher because of my fame here down in all the rings of hell just so you make more money." I say but I can hear him still eating on the other end.

"Yeah? And?" He says with his mouth still full of junk food.

"You think I'm going to show up for publicity? Sorry but your going to have to pay the right price for me to show up in the first place." I say looking at my nails as I take a seat in the private study that me and Alastor were just in.

He goes quiet for a bit, probably grimacing at the thought of having to give up his precious money to me, but then again he has probably made him more money than he could have had I never appeared in his life, it's also why he was ever willing to make an official contract with 30% of his total revenue going towards me for all the ideas I have given him over these several millions of years that we have known each other.

I hear him take a deep breath before sighing, "How much?"

"Oh not that much, only half of what you make from that entire thing is all."

"Half?! Are you fucking kidding me?! No fucking way, nuh uh, not gonna happen!" He said as his voice went into its more demonic mode of voice.

"Oh? But with my presence there, everyone from all the rings will definitely want to come, well at least those who can afford it, after all I am a celebrity down here." I say which I hear him growl on the other end.

"…. 15%"

"40"

"Fuck! 25% and not a penny more!"

"Make it 30, and I'll sign some limited addition merch you'd sell at this thing, and you can mark up the price sky high and you know they'll just eat that shit up." I say with a grin as I know what makes him tick.

"…. Deal."

"Fantastic! I knew you'd understand, besides when this all happens that little lightness in your wallet will be barely noticeable in the first place with how much you'll really take in, besides, after I get off vacation I'll give you new ideas to help make you and me even more money." I say with a sly grin as I know hearing he'll be making more money soon enough is an easy way to make him happy once again.

Hearing this makes him chuckle, "Heh, you really know how to bring a smile to my face, but besides that I also heard you took Tahm up to the Pride Ring." He says, after all word spread fast when one of the heads of the Great Loan Shark Families was suddenly taken away from their home turf and into another ring.

"Oh you don't need to worry about him, I just need his help with things after all, besides I own him and if he doesn't want to lose everything he has built up then it's best he does what he's told, and besides his men aren't idiots and won't fuck up your operation in making you and me more money, besides he won't stay up here all the time so you don't have to worry about a thing." Which I hear him sigh in relief on the other end.

"Hooo, had me wordied for a moment, but if you say so then I'll take your word for it, but that's really all I called about so I'll talk to you later Pal."

"Alright, talk to ya later." I say before closing the phone and thinking some things over.

"Heh…. How about I scare those fuckers for trying to pull some shit here at the hotel when I told them not to…." As I could already see that snake guy being manipulated by Vox and his pals to make him come here, for what I'm not sure but I can feel it falling flat on its face before it gets anywhere.

So getting up i dust myself off, time to take a walk through Pentagram City.
