The feed snaps on to once again reveal Desco, although she's nowhere near as upset as the last time.

"Hello! Desco here!"

She briefly clears her throat before launching into her - obviously rehearsed - spiel.

"Desco was thinking about what she could do to fix all the incredibly obvious problems with humanity's political model, and she eventually decided to start small! Progress starts at the bottom and works its way upwards, you know. Just like how a hero starts off grinding on slimes in the starting area!"

She nods to herself, obviously proud of her BRILLIANT AND TOTALLY RELEVANT METAPHOR.

"So today, Desco is going to deliver a public service announcement to allll of Hinoto-Ri!"

With that, she holds up a crayon drawing of what looks like...a penguin?

"This is a Prinny! They are from Desco's home of Hades! They are a very important part of the industrial complex there!"

She tosses the drawing over her shoulder, smiling broadly.

"Desco has recently figured out that there is a deplorable lack of knowledge about Prinnies, so she has decided to educate you on them! And lucky for you, Desco is a highly-paid teacher at Evil Academy, the greatest school in the Netherworld!"

A slight pause.

"Also, in case you can't figure it out, Desco is also indulging in needless self-promotion while delivering this message. If you are struck by how amazing Desco is, she is still accepting minion applications!"

A broad smile as she holds up another piece of paper, this time with her contact number directly scribbled in crayon on it.

"Prinnies are sinful human souls! In life, they were terrible people that were complete failures as human beings! When they died, they went directly to Hades, where they were encased in Prinny Hide and subjected to intense, borderline sadistic lessons in order to become fine Prinnies!"

She pauses briefly in order to allow the the viewers to digest this message. She holds up the sign with her contact number again while she's at it.

"Once the training is finished, the Prinnies are shipped out to Netherworlds all over the universe, where they do menial labor and other degrading, thankless chores in exchange for less than minimum wage! When they have saved up enough money, they can pay off their sins and Death will take them away to be reincarnated!"

Her demeanor suddenly becomes serious.

"And now, Desco reaches the public service portion. Recently, Prinnies have started appearing in Hinoto-Ri during the Thirteenth Hour, and they are taking this time to slack off and indulge in idle chatter and frequent cigarette breaks. This is no good at all! A Prinny that is slacking off in his free time will soon start to slack off when working, and if a Prinny doesn't work his sins will never be forgiven! Therefore, if you see a Prinny during the Thirteenth Hour, Desco implores you to BRUTALLY ASSAULT them, for the sake of their tarnished souls!"

...she is entirely serious about this.

"Please, please, keep the cycle of reincarnation going! Beat a Prinny today!"

Desco beams at this.

"Isn't it?! Desco is very proud of the part she plays in upholding this proud and noble system!"

Xellos chuckles. "Well, I suppose it's good take pride in your work, mo matter what kind of work it is."

"Oh, Desco doesn't actually work with the Prinnies. She just beats up anyone that messes with the system."

Entirely frank.

"Aha! A fine job, quite worthy to take pride in!"

Also entirely frank - probably a bit too much.

"Isn't it?!"

She looks very happy at this.

"Desco is very glad to finally meet someone that thinks like a normal person!"

It's at this point that Xellos opts to lock the conversation down.

"I suppose that depends on what's normal for you, but I believe I have an idea of what that may be," Xellos answers. "I do share your sense of relief, however."

Desco peers at you in a quizzical manner for a second or two before a look of understanding passes across her face.

"Oh! Are you from Hades too?"

There's another chuckle before Xellos shakes his head. "I am not, but I am from what I assume to be a reasonably similar station in my world."

Oh, so he's from a different Netherworld.

"Oh! What is the name of your Overlord? Maybe Desco has been there in the past!"

"'Overlord' isn't a term we use - we prefer the term 'Dark Lord'," Xellos answers. "As for who I serve..." He smirks a bit, then wags his finger at the camera. "That is a secret!"

"Ohhh, one of those 'shadowed in mystery' types, huh? A classic approach! Desco prefers to be more front and center, herself."

Nodding seriously.

"Of course, now that Desco thinks about it, she is pretty sure it is even odds that it's actually you!"

"Something like that - and I suppose that with a look like that, you don't have much choice, hmm?"

He does chuckle, amused at her comment. "I suppose you'll have to wait and see what happens, then!"
