Lucien

The Tied Ownership Pact

(Demon – Lucien)

The pact that binds Lucien to the devil is not a simple exchange; it is a bond of absolute dominion sealed by human will and enforced by infernal law. It is not based on blood or physical sacrifice, but on a more dangerous clause: the surrender of will.

Upon being summoned, the demon became anchored to the human world under an unbreakable condition: to exist only through Lucien.

Lucien didn't ask for immediate power or material possessions. He demanded total obedience, and in return offered permanence in the human world. The demon cannot disobey direct orders, nor act without explicit permission. Even silence requires authorization.

The agreement states that: • The demon is bound to Lucien's presence. • Their energy, actions, and words are regulated by the human's will. • Any attempt at rebellion will result in automatic restriction of the link. • Lucien can reinforce control simply by verbally reaffirming the pact.

Unlike other infernal contracts, this pact is one-way. The demon receives no benefit whatsoever, except to continue existing. He cannot break the agreement, not even if Lucien dies… because the pact ensures that his soul will remain suspended, incomplete.

The cruelest part of the contract is its final clause:

"As long as the summoner recognizes the summoned as his own, the bond will not weaken."

And Lucien never stopped doing it.

He controls every aspect of the demon's existence. He decides where the demon can be, when it can speak, and whose thoughts are worth listening to. Sometimes he remains silent on purpose, knowing that waiting is a more effective form of punishment than any words. The demon quickly learns that uncertainty is part of Elian's domain.

Lucien's cruelty stems not from hatred, but from the cold pleasure of total control. He reminds the demon of his nature with gentle, almost kind words that carry more weight than a direct threat. He doesn't need to shout; he knows the bond of their pact is enough to break any resistance.

For Lucien, the demon is not a being, but a living possession. A constant proof of his superiority and that, for once, the world can deny him nothing. If the demon shows doubt, emotions, or free will, Lucien corrects them with ever-stricter restrictions, with increasingly narrow limits.

The most terrifying thing isn't what Lucien does, but how convinced he is that he's right. In his mind, cruelty is order. Control is justice. And slavery… simply the price of having been summoned.

He has a slender build and average height, enough to blend in with others. His posture is usually slightly hunched, not from physical weakness, but from the constant weight of his thoughts. His movements are silent, almost cautious, as if he were always afraid of breaking something invisible.

His face is pale, marked by soft dark circles that betray sleepless nights. His eyes are dark and deep, with an analytical gaze that rarely relaxes; they seem to observe more than they express. His hair is dark, straight, and somewhat disheveled, falling over his forehead without him bothering to fix it.

He dresses simply: dark, comfortable clothes, without unnecessary adornments. He prefers to go unnoticed rather than attract attention. His hands are slender, with long fingers, occasionally stained with ink or dust, a sign of his constant contact with books, symbols, and ancient writings.

Elian is a young man with a weary gaze, as if he's lived more nights than his fair share. He's not imposing or intimidating; his presence goes unnoticed, and that's precisely what makes him dangerous. He tends to remain silent, not because he has nothing to say, but because he thinks too much before speaking.
