*Shendar – Palace*
I woke up early in the morning and slowly got out of bed. I didn’t want to wake the girls up with my movements. I quickly got dressed in some black jeans and a purple t-shirt. I looked at the shirt and smiled. Dani really did tell them about my likes and stuff. She is one of the few people I ever told, that purple is my favorite color.
I walked out of the bedroom and saw Drexella and Violet sitting in the main room. They both jumped up at the sight of me and gave a quick bow. They spoke while looking at the floor, “Good morning your majesty.” I shook my head, “Don’t call me that. I am not your king yet, even when I am don’t call me that in private.” I understand that in public I must be addressed as such to uphold the respect that a king is supposed to have. I may not like it, but it has to be done.
If everyone is able to be so lax with the king or queen then it will lead to schemes and other negative notions. The two quickly spoke again, “Yes master.” I sighed, “Don’t call me that either.” They looked at each other and had complex expressions on their faces. I understood their what they were thinking. I sighed again, “First, stand up and look at me.” They did as I asked and I continued talking, “In public call me your majesty or master, either one works. In private I want you to call me Vitamor, Vita, V, or JD. If you don’t want to call me any of those then call me whatever you want, besides master or your majesty.”
They looked at each other and then back at me before they spoke, “As you wish Lord Vitamor.” I sighed at the title, but it was a step in the right direction. I smiled at them and then spoke again, “They girls are still sleeping so be quiet and let them sleep for a while. Violet can you tell me everything I need to know about the coronation today?”
Violet nodded her head, “Yes Lord. Today all of the nobles from the cities on the planet will be attending the coronation. Our allies and our nobles from other planets under our empire will be watching through Holo-Screens. Now I say they are nobles, but many of them are only Noblets in the universe. They are recognized as nobles for our empire, but higher existences only recognize them as the Noblets they are.”
I nodded my head at what she was saying. She handed me a list that materialized out of nowhere, “This is a list of the empires and nobles that will be attending the coronation either in person or through the Holo-Screens.” I grabbed the list and looked over it. I didn’t recognize any of the names, but one of them did cause me to freeze up. I sat there staring at the name “United Spacial Human Empire.” I looked over at Violet, “Is the United Spacial Human Empire actually a human empire?” It may seem like a stupid question, but if a sect back on earth was to call themselves the “Dark Demon Hand Sect” then would they really be a demon or even the hand of a demon just because of the name?
She nodded her head, “Yes Lord, it is the human empire.” I cursed in my mind; I didn’t think I would have to deal with other humans just yet. If the human gods find out about my powers then they will try and do something. I can only hope that Origin or Pangu can do something to prevent them from trying anything. I sighed and handed the list back to Violet. She received the list and said something, “If you are worried about the humans coming in person you can stop. They will only be viewing it through Holo-Screens. The Demon’s territory is directly between us and the humans. The humans have been cut off from us for a long time now.
When she said this I breathed a little bit easier. I should be able to display my power without them sensing anything easily then. I looked over at Violet again, “Is there anything I need to do before the coronation?” She shook her head, “No Lord. Drexella and I are taking care of anything that is needed on your end. The church and her majesty will be taking care of the rest.”
I nodded my head and smiled at her, “Then I am going to the training room for a little while.” Violet and Drexella did a small bow as I walked out of the room. I went to the training room and walked towards the middle. I stood there and started to circulate my Ki. I could feel my destructive Ki run throughout my body. After I had circulated my Ki for an hour my aura was starting to leak out of my body.
The air around my body started to crackle and there were small tears in space. Inside of those minute tears you could see a chaotic void. There was purple lightning everywhere and they were extremely powerful. If a God King was to be hit by one of these lightning bolts he would perish instantly. At this time I couldn’t notice any of these tears, because I was concentrating on my Ki circulation.
My Ki was getting thicker and thicker by the minute. My body was starting to hurt and the ground was being disintegrated by my aura. I had realized that my aura was probably the strongest weapon I could use right now. The [Wrath of the Asura] was stronger, but I couldn’t trigger it on my own. I had to be stimulated by an extreme emotion, such as anger.
There were cracks spreading from my body to the edges of the room and a visible black aura was starting to spread from my body. Another hour went by and then I stopped circulating my Ki and opened my eyes. The black aura was cut off and the excess power exploded inside the room further cracking the floor and putting cracks on the wall.
I looked at the completely trashed training room and whistled a little. All of a sudden the doors burst open and a squad of guards ran in led by Xellanr. They ran in with their weapons at the ready, some of them even aimed at me. Xellanr noticed that it was me and he stiffened slightly before bowing, “Your majesty!” The guards all froze before they quickly realized who they were aiming their weapons at. They all quickly followed Xellanr’s lead.
I laughed, “Sorry for the disturbance. I guess from now on I should let you know when I am training.” I rubbed the back of my head and looked around the room. Xellanr nodded his head and spoke, “Sorry for disturbing your training your majesty.” They bowed and quickly left the room. I sighed at how formal Xellanr was acting; he was completely different than when we first met.
I looked at the mess I made again and then activated my [Mana Perception]. I saw that all of the mana rivers around the walls and floors were broken and not flowing properly. I grabbed a hold of one of the mana rivers next to the wall and wanted to try something. I carefully shaped the mana river back into its original form. It took me over three hours to completely reform the mana river. I placed it back next to the wall and I was shocked with a particular sight. The cracks, in the specific spot that the mana river was at, started to disappear. The area of the wall next to the reformed mana river was completely devoid of any blemishes. I stared at the spot, but I noticed a notification pop up.
Congratulations! You have invented the time magic [Rewind]!
Rewind – Allows the caster to rewind time up to thirty minutes.
Warning! – This magic has a cool down of an hour. Trying to use this spell before the cool down is up will result in magic backlash.
Congratulations! You have unlocked Time Magic!
Time Magic is at Level 1
I was shocked at the spell that I invented. I wondered why there wasn’t a time mage that had invented this spell before. I know that time mages are extremely rare existences; they are even more rare than space mages. I still would have figured that they would have made it thought. Maybe it has something to do with my [Mana Perception] and [Mana Manipulation]. I really couldn’t understand why I was the one to invent the spell, but I really didn’t care too much. When good things happen, why should we question them?
I checked the time and noticed that it was almost noon. I decided to just leave the cracks like they were. Most of them were made hours ago and I wasn’t able to fix them. It was a surprise that I was able to fix the crack in the first place. The spell says I can rewind time up to thirty minutes, but it took me hours to fix it in the first place. Maybe I can bypass the limitations of the spell if I manipulate the mana directly.
I put the thoughts to the back of my head and walked out of the training room. If I had the right earth magic I could have fixed the stone room in a flash, but sadly my knowledge of spells is still lacking. My stomach rumbled and I laughed. Even though I have an immortal body, I still get hungry I guess.
I walked towards the dining room and I noticed that the girls where all sitting at the table eating some food. I walked in the room and spoke, “Anyone want to share?” The girls looked at me and smiled before they all held up a fork with some meat on it. I laughed and didn’t want to be rude so I took the meat from all of their forks. I then sat down at the head of the table and a maid brought me my own plate.
We all ate together and chatted about some non-important matters. It was a very happy lunch to be honest. Zellfina suddenly brought up a serious topic, “So how are you going to respond to the challenges love?” I looked at her and answered seriously, “I will accept any and all challengers. They will feel my fists and feet connecting with their heads if they so choose.” She smiled at my answer and then when back to eating. Dani on the other hand spoke up, “I feel that if they should question your authority they should be locked up instead of beaten.” I sighed at Dani’s suggestion before speaking, “That is a good idea, but they run their respective cities and planets it is a little bit more difficult to lock them up.”

Dani’s looked dejectedly at her plate on the table. I smiled, “Don’t be sad Dani. In this universe the strong rule the weak. We either beat them up or lock them up. If we have the strength to do either then we are the strong. I have the strength to beat them, but locking them up and taking them from their posts would possibly be harmful to the kingdom as a whole.” Zellfina’s eyes shined and she nodded in agreement to my explanation. I realize how my actions affected Dragon’s Kitchen when I killed its noble after Zellfina explained it to me one night.
Sylvia spoke up next, “I feel that if anyone challenges your authority they should just be killed.” I glanced over at the werewolf sitting beside Camellia, “I will only result to killing if they threaten anything that is mine. Such as you girls or any one I consider a friend. Most worldly things can be acquired again, but you all cannot be replaced.” The girls all smiled at me and it was a lovely scene to look at. We continued to chat about things and eat our food.
After we were done Zellfina spoke up, “Are you ready hunny?” I nodded my head, “As ready as I am going to be.” She nodded her head and we all went back to the room. We changed into our formal outfits and it took everything in me not to pounce on all of them. The view of them all changing in the same room with me was enough for me to have to activate my [Blood Flow Manipulation]. If it wasn’t for the coronation I would have pounced on them though.
We all walked to the throne room. When we got there all of the nobles from every city turned to look at us. We walked up to the throne and I saw that there was a big throne and three smaller ones. I stopped walking and then spoke to the priest, “Why are there not four smaller chairs?” He looked at me with a confused stare. He then spoke after a few seconds, “What do you mean? There are only three queens with you.”
I stared right back at him, “There is a forth queen here. She may not be my wife yet, but she is just as important to me as the other three.” The priest looked at the girls and I saw a glint of disgust flash through his eyes when he saw Sylvia. He then looked at me and spoke, “I only see three women here and a beast. There is no other woman for you to call one of your queens.”
My eye was starting to twitch and if it wasn’t for Zellfina’s grip I would have snapped at the priest. I glared at him, “She is no beast. She is my woman and she will be a future queen of the draconian empire.” The priest shook his head, “This will never happen. The church will not allow anyone to marry a beast. If she is not married to you she cannot be a queen.” I clenched my teeth and spoke, “Whose empire is this, the king’s or the church’s?” He looked at me and spoke calmly, “It is ruled by the king and queen, but the church is not governed by the empire. We will not marry the beast to you, and by your empire’s law you cannot make someone who isn’t married to you one of your queens.”
I looked at him and spoke through clenched teeth again, “Who gave you this authority that you claim to have?” He looked at me and flatly spoke, “Our Dragon God King did. He created the draconian race and he told our founding father that we are to lead the citizens of the empire.” I was starting to lose it, but before I could say anything a voice boomed across the sky, “I have told nobody any such thing!”
All of a sudden the doors to the throne room were blasted open and I saw Origin walk into the room. I smiled and the anger from earlier started to fade. I looked at him, “It’s about time you showed up.” He smiled at me, but he didn’t say anything. He walked up to the priest and spoke to him, “I have never once said those things to anyone from my race.” The priest look at Origin and spoke, “Who do you think you are to interrupt a conversation between the king and I? I am the Arch-Bishop of the church and I have been directly handed the founding fathers teachings. I should know what our Dragon God King said.”
Origin suddenly released a little bit of his aura and caused those in the room to gasp for breath. I surrounded myself and the girls in my aura and it directly destroyed the aura coming towards us. Origin glanced at me when his aura was destroyed by mine, but he quickly looked back at the arch-bishop. He glared at him before speaking, “I am your Dragon God King! I am Origin-D!”
When he yelled there was a dragons roar that followed his voice. Every person in the throne room started to shake and some even pissed themselves. The girls and I just stood there looking at Origin and the trembling arch-bishop. He looked at Origin and spoke, “You may be strong, but you have no proof that you are our Dragon God King.” His confident words were betrayed by his trembling appearance.
Origin smirked, “Come outside and I will show you who I really am.” After he said these words he walked out of the throne room and headed towards the courtyard. I looked at the arch-bishop and spoke, “I guess we are conducting the coronation outside.” I then led the girls out into the courtyard and the nobles followed. The arch-bishop followed after several minutes went by.
The trainees that where training stopped what they were doing at the sight of all the nobles. Origin stepped out into a training field and looked at the arch-bishop, “This should be proof enough for you.” All of a sudden he let out a dragons roar and his body started to grow. His body started to morph and after a few minutes there was a giant dragon crouched in front of us.
The dragon looked just like the ones from the fables and legends that England had back on Earth. Origin spread his wings wide and roared to the skies. A multicolored crown appeared floating above his head. Someone in the audience yelled out, “God King!” I looked at Zellfina and she explained, “When a person passes the Immortal Rank and hits the Demi-God, God, God Prince, and God King ranks they will have a certain identifier. A Demi-God’s identifier is that their skin turns the color of their respective magic or power element when they activate their powers…”
“…A God will have their eyes turn the color of their respective magic or power element when they activate their godly powers. A God Prince will have a crown the color of their respective element tilted slightly to the right of their head. A God Prince can activate this crown at any time they please; it is not controlled by their power. A God King will have a crown floating directly above their heads when they want to show it. Their crown will be the same color as their respective element. Now the identifiers of the ranks, when someone trains in two different styles at the same time, are unknown. There has never been a person with a God Rank in magic that also has it in Power. If there are they haven’t made themselves known.”
I listened to every word that she was saying and stored every single bit of it in my mind. After he heard her explanation Origin quickly send a telepathic message, “There has been people train in both up until the Demi-God rank. Sadly the two powers were unable to exist in harmony and ended up destroying each other. This either kills the person training them or it cripples them and makes them unable to train ever again. You are a special case though Vitamor. Your element is destruction and it will be able to cancel out the destructive power of the two powers. A destructive force can be stopped by a more destructive one…”
“…When you are able to achieve Demi-God rank in both magic and Power at the same time you will have a different identifier than anyone else in the multiverse. Even I don’t know what your identifier will be at that point. If you hit Demi-God rank in either magic or power before the other your identifiers will be the same as everyone else, but when the other hits the Demi-God rank it will change. It could be as simple as having two normal identifiers at the same time. How it changes is unknown, but it will change.”
I looked at Origin and nodded my head towards him. He looked back at the Arch-Bishop and spoke, “Are you satisfied now?” The Arch-Bishop was trembling and after Origin spoke to him he directly fell down to his knees. He yelled, “Lord Origin-D! Your faithful servant seeks forgiveness.” Origin snorted and a flame came out his nose, “It is not me you should be apologizing to, but the werewolf woman and Vitamor.”
The Arch-Bishop quickly turned towards us and bowed again, “My apologies your majesty.” I glared at him, “What about Sylvia?” He glance at Sylvia and then back at Origin. Origin glared at him and blew some more flames from his nose. The Arch-Bishop quickly spoke again, “My apologies Lady Sylvia!” I could see Sylvia cover her mouth with her hand and she quickly started to tear up.
I pulled her into my arms and rubbed her head, “I told you the day would one day arrive.” She looked at me and then buried her head in my chest. I could hear her crying and I could see her shoulders shaking. I stood there and held her in front of everyone. Origin had turned back into his draconian form and was just standing there whistling to the sky. After a few minutes Sylvia separated from me and then gave me a kiss before rejoining the other girls.
Origin looked at the Arch-Bishop, “From now on the church is to love all the races equally. No more discrimination, all the creations of Nuwa were created from her love. You could learn from this.” After he said that to him he looked at me, “If the church acts up again in the future I want you to take care of it how you see fit.” I looked back at him and thought, “Anyway I see fit?” He nodded his head and then disappeared from where he was standing.
After everything Origin left everything started to calm down and we when ahead with the coronation ceremony outside. The arch-bishop looked at the crowed of nobles and Holo-Screens, “Is there anyone here that challenges Lord Vitamor’s right to rule the empire?” At this time there were a few people that raised their hands. The arch-bishop turned to me, “Do you accept their challenges?” I laughed and then jumped into a training field, “If anybody has a problem with me then step into the field. You can come one at a time or all at once. It makes no difference to me either way.”
A few of the nobles were stunned and there were a few mumbles like “He is acting very arrogant right now” and “Fool doesn’t know his own limits.” I just stood there in the field and looked at the crowd. After a few seconds a couple of nobles walked out of the group. They stepped into the middle of the field and started to cast their magic. There was a couple who got into fighting stances.
I sneered at all of them before I released my aura. There was a blast of destructive power that spread out from me. Cracks started to form on the ground and the air was tearing apart. All of the nobles who stepped out into the field were scared shitless. There was even one who yelled, “Immortal!” I was standing in the middle of the destructive power with my arms crossed, “What? No one wants to come and fight me now?”
The majority of the nobles in the field put their magic away and got out of their fighting stances. They then walked off the field and rejoined the crowd. I sighed, “What a bunch of pussies. I was looking forward to a fight.” All of a sudden there was another booming voice across the sky, “If you want a fight, then I will give you one.”
All of a sudden a female stepped through a rip in space and walked into the field. Her skin was a dark red color and she was only wearing black lingerie. She had two dark red wings that spread out from her back and a long skinny tail with a spade on the end. She had two small horns on top of her head and her black hair fell down to her ass. Speaking of her ass, it was plentiful and so was her bosom.
She stared at and I noticed that her pupils were dark red as well. She stood there swinging her tail back and forth behind her. She was emanating a devilish aura around her. After the rip in space disappeared I heard Zellfina holler, “Demon!” I stared at the woman in shock and she just laughed, “Yes I am a demon. I have been sent by our Lord Lucifer to check out the new Immortal Draconian King and try to sway him to our side.” I glared at her, “And what if I don’t join your side?”
She smiled, “Then I have been told to kill you.” I released my aura and stared at her, “Do you have the power to do that?” She smiled at me and then she was covered in flames. I stared at her closely and I could see that her eyes where completely purple. I gasped, “God!?” The crowd gasped and there were even a few that fainted on the spot. The demon laughed, “That’s right. If I wanted to kill you there is nothing you could do about it.” I clenched my fist and stared at her. I cursed in my mind, why does this have to happen now? I just got married yesterday for fuck’s sake!
