Rimmon won't transport anything without your signature. I'd backdate the paper and give it to Belz to sign, but he won't sign much right now. Here's a signature, here's two initials and a stamp." Mephisto (Bottom Panel): "The middle one is an agreement to take a small amount from the vault. And this the last one..." A black-and-white page from the final part of the first chapter of “Mephisto: His Majesty the Black Eminence.” The scene focuses on the manipulation of documents and the final sealing of the deal between Mephisto and Otto. Upper panel: Side view of the desk. Mephisto's hand points to a specific document, while Otto leans over the papers, analyzing their content. The atmosphere is heavy and tense.

Mephisto (Bottom Left): "YOU SIGNED AND I DON'T HAVE TIME. DAMN PIG." Otto (Bottom Right): "CAN YOU GUARANTEE ME THAT INVITATION TO THE BANQUET?" The concluding page of Chapter 1. The pact is finalized, and a new threat is foreshadowed. Top Panel: A close-up of a hand sliding a signed document across a textured surface. The text on the paper is dense with signatures and an official seal at the bottom right. A voice-over bubble guarantees an invitation. Bottom Panel: A wide, symmetrical shot of a grand, dark hallway with massive pillars. Mephisto walks away from the viewer toward the foreground, his expression shadowed. In the far distance, a small figure sits behind a desk under a large, glowing lion head emblem mounted on the wall. A jagged speech bubble warns of future trouble. Full Dialogue Transcription: Mephisto (Top Panel): "I WILL VOUCH, WITH MY OWN HEAD, THAT YOU WILL GET IT." Mephisto (Bottom Panel): "THERE WILL BE PROBLEMS WITH HIM."
