Summary of Receipt
New Guy mentions that the ‘High Demon’ is actually just Esperanto backwards. He mentions two possibilities - that High Demon influenced Esperanto, or that the text isn’t actually High Demon and that Quality Control, an O’phidian Ouroborian’, is just really good at reading Esperanto backwards. Which wouldn’t make sense, since Esperanto was only made in 1887. He also says that his overalls would help him think better.

Wow! Simply, I must say this, WOW! Quality Control is very, very good at reading High Demon. He is also a very funny guy. I am very glad he was able to join our Cafe. However, I must say this, ok, I simply must say this, and this is what I will say about it, but I do not want to discredit Quality Control, but High Demon is simply a SCAM! Yes! It is a scam! Ok, perhaps that is a very strong word, but I do not know what else to call it! Now that I know the translation, I can see that the High Demon is just Esperanto backwards, more or less! I simply do not know what to make of this discovery!
Yes, ok, yes, there are some differences, but it is simply very close to being Esperanto backwards! I can only assume the errors were mine. So, I can see this being one of two things. Firstly, High Demon influenced Esperanto. It certainly wouldn't be the first language to be borrowed from Demons, and it wouldn't be the last. However, Esperanto is simply not a natural language. It is a constructed language created by L. L. Zamenhof. I suppose, yes, ok, I suppose he could have either learned it from High Demons or High Demons could have influenced him behind the scenes.
The other option, and this is I think more likely, it was not High Demon, to begin with. Yes, ok, yes, I know Quality Control says it's High Demon, but he is NOT a High Demon. He is an Ophidian Ouroborian. So then perhaps someone wrote it to look like High Demon and Quality Control is simply very good at reading backwards Esperanto. But then, who would write backwards Esperanto in a very old book!! Esperanto wasn't around until 1887! Hm… something is very strange about all of this. Perhaps if I were to get my very special overalls back, I could break this case, yes? I think, ok, I will say this, I think they would help me think.
