Monster Among Us

                                    

                                          
Beelzebub massages their left shoulder and moves to stretch their left arm. It's only been a week at least, but they're bothered by the discomfort when moving the body as their own. The consciousness couldn't resist when Tirpitz isn't aware of the infection itself being sentient and actually parasitizing to her. Still, Beelzebub feels somewhat sluggish and restless. The only explanation is the wisdom cube acting against an unknown entity latching into it.
"This body is uncomfortable. Her consciousness is persisting. Did I make a mistake when I reactivated the wisdom cube?"
The symptom isn't physical since the discomfort is more on a mental level. Tirpitz's personality has been suppressed for the time being, but Beelzebub experiences mild soreness in the body and tension headache.
"Eating away her ego will solve the problem, but I won't be able to move freely in Iron Blood. It won't be long before I can make this body mine, but I need to marinate my prey first"a
Beelzebub stares at the mirror and licks her upper lips when they recall Bismarck fiercely standing before them even when she's already coughing blood.

"Abaddon, what's the matter?" Beelzebub frowns
[*******]
"You two are there? Mammon says they want to come, but business is booming?"
[*******]
"As you can see, my body is resisting me. I didn't think the personalities of kansens are engraved this strongly in their wisdom cube"
[*******]
"Belphegor acted and actually helped Asmodeus make a meal? What new dish are you feeding everyone this time?"
[*******]
"A surprise, huh. Well, I don't mind if I have to guess my meal. It brings out the flavor the best that way"
Beelzebub removes the cap and combs the silky snow-white hair to the back to experiment on their current appearance. Due to their nature as excessive consumption, Beelzebub only cares about tasting and swallowing normal food and absorbing wisdom cubes. Appearance and image have always been Asmodeus and Lucifer's specialty.
"I can barely connect to the others with how weak I currently am. Lucifer plays around the Arbiters seeing them as humanity's feisty toys- ah, this is probably what Abaddon feels"
Each one of them have their personalities of their own primarily shaped by the sins they embody, but they're also capable of expressing different emotions. What they clearly lack is the positive trait of humans, making them the natural predators of the world.

"You're right. Right now, the Sirens should know I'm in a weakened state and I'm a target. However, Bismarck isn't going to lose her younger sister again. I can't expose myself by fighting as myself"
[********]
"One issue is those templars. Their instincts are sharp and if I'm not careful, they'll sense something is amiss with me. One stab is all they need to find out I stole this body"
Beelzebub touches their left cheek and that side of the face partially mutates to resemble their original body. Three bright red eyes on one side, black steel plating, and half row of exposed jagged teeth.
[********]
"I get it. I'll try to hold back a bit..."
[...]
"Belphegor can nullify and shut down everything, even bodily functions. Asmodeus must have infused their next dish with that power"
A single swipe to the left side of the face and Beelzebub's face returns to normal. No one would think a Leviathan turned themselves into a parasite to freely mingle with kansens.
