"I am intrigued by these two souls from the planet Earth, nestled within the Milky Way Galaxy," I declared to the soul collector, my voice resonating with a blend of nobility and darkness.
The collector's words carried a weight that echoed through the darkness. "These souls you seek are not ordinary," they intoned, their voice a somber reminder of the gravity of my request. "The male soul, imbued with purity to the extent of 75%, and the female, even more pristine at 88%, were beacons of light in their mortal existence. Their selfless and noble deeds have left an indelible mark upon the tapestry of humanity."
"The price for such souls, steeped in purity, is not easily met," the collector continued, their gaze piercing through the shadows. "Their worth transcends mere currency, for they are the essence of goodness incarnate. To claim them, one must seek the blessing of the Creator, the architect of galaxies, and the arbiter of destinies."
"And as for your intentions," the collector pressed, their scrutiny unyielding, "I must know the purpose to which you would put these souls. Will they be ensnared in the darkness of your domain, or shall they find solace in a realm more befitting their virtuous nature?"
With unwavering conviction, I addressed the soul collector, my demeanor resolute and honest. "If need be, I shall swear upon my true name to the God Creator, offering assurance that my intentions harbor no ill will towards these souls," I declared, meeting the collector's gaze with a steady resolve. "The emptiness of my domain has grown tiresome, devoid of the vibrant essence that these souls could provide. My desire is for companionship, to share in the wonders of my latest endeavors, and perhaps witness their joy in the unfolding of my creations."
"But heed my words," I cautioned, my gaze meeting the Collector with unwavering determination. "When I speak my true name, let it be known that only the Creator shall bear witness to my vow. For the power held within such a name is not to be trifled with, and its utterance must be safeguarded against the ears of the unworthy."
As I completed my solemn vow to the God Creator, invoking my true name with reverence and caution, the weight of my words resonated through the cosmic realms. With the transaction settled and the souls now under my custodianship, I hastened back to my realm, anticipation coursing through my ancient veins. Through the arcane scrying device known as the blood portal, I glimpsed a scene unfolding in the mortal realm. The boy, whose soul I now possessed, had forged a pact with evolving itself, ascending to a promising class with power and potential. A wicked smile curved upon my lips, a semblance of delight flickering in my eyes.
As I glanced over the status page, a flicker of amusement crossed my features as I observed the souls in my domain stealing nervous glances in my direction. Their fear was palpable, a constant reminder of the power I wielded over them, yet also a testament to the respect they held for my authority. The souls, though still wary of my dark aura, found solace in each other's company, and as they studied the status page
With a calculated nonchalance, I allowed the souls to converse amongst themselves, their murmurs and whispers echoing faintly in the shadows. Their curiosity mingled with trepidation, a delicate balance that mirrored the dance of light and darkness within my realm.

Meanwhile, I observed their interactions with a detached interest, knowing well the power I wielded over their fates. The boy, whose destiny now intertwined with mine, remained ignorant of the true extent of my influence. Though I harbored no kindness in my heart, I upheld a code of honor that governed my actions.
As I contemplated the pact forged with the boy, a wicked grin played upon my lips, a sinister amusement simmering within the depths of my being. The prospect of returning something lost to him, contingent upon his strength and survival, added a delightful twist to our arrangement. After all, what is power without the allure of temptation, and what is survival without the tantalizing promise of reward?
Yet, as I toyed with the idea of testing the boy's resolve, a darker impulse stirred within me. The notion of pranking him, of leading him down a twisted path of deception and despair, sparked a malevolent gleam in my eyes. To manipulate his perception, to sow the seeds of doubt and corruption within his soul, was a temptation too delicious to resist.
And so, I crafted a scheme, weaving whispers of temptation into the boy's subconscious, planting seeds of deception that would take root and flourish in the fertile soil of his mind. The notion of killing innocent children, tainted by his own misguided beliefs, would serve as a test of his moral fortitude, a crucible through which his true nature would be revealed. And though my actions may seem cruel to some, they serve a greater purpose in the grand tapestry of existence, where darkness and light converge in an eternal dance of power and temptation.
