*Xenova POV*
“Skeleton King? Hades?” I was confused at why the Primordial God of the Greek version of the underworld would personally send someone to monitor the situation. Who was the sibling of Hades and why did they care for master? Thousands of questions where running through my head at the same time, but I couldn’t think of any answers. From what I know the only siblings Hades has is Zeus and Poseidon. Could it be that…
I was unable to finish that though when I was hit on the head by the end of the Skeleton King’s scythe. “Don’t be foolish child. The Primordial Gods change every so often, Hades and its siblings have changed a few times over billions of years. The current Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades aren’t related at all.”
I widened my eyes in shock, “You mean the name Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades are actually just titles or something?” He, I am assuming it is a he due to its name, nodded his head, “Yes, any Primordial God is just a God King that controls that title. That title means that they can control their respective element better than any other God King in existence.” I was honestly shocked at what was being said to me. I cleared my head and asked him a question, “So why isn’t this public knowledge?”
He laughed, “It is known by all of the God Kings in every Universe, but whether they want to spread the information out is up to them.” I raised an eyebrow, “So you mean that Lucifer would know about this information?” He nodded his head, “Exactly, why do you think he has been raising a slave race of Demons?” I was confused, “Why would we be involved in this?”
He shook his head, “Lucifer is a God King of Death and Fire just like Hades is, but Lucifer also has another enemy he must face.” I raised another eyebrow, “Who is that?” He laughed, “It is another God King from the same pantheon as Hades, Hephaestus, who is another God King of Fire.” I was confused, “Why doesn’t Hades have to face Hephaestus?” He hit me on the head again which stung a bit, “They are from the same pantheon, which usually makes God Kings allies.”
I understand now, “So because Lucifer isn’t from their pantheon he has to deal with them both?” He nodded his head, “Exactly, if the challenge was from someone in the same pantheon as them then they are not allowed to interfere, but when the challenge comes from out of the pantheon…” I nodded my head, “Hephaestus can help Hades and vice versa.” He nodded, “Exactly.”
Dani spoke up at this point, “So how does a God King affiliate themselves with a pantheon then?” The Skeleton King turned towards her, “Whenever a being becomes a God King they can chose to align themselves to a pantheon by pledging their allegiance to it or they can become an independent God King.”
Dani continued to ask questions, “So what exactly is a pantheon then?” He nodded his head, “Good question. Depending on who you talk to it is just a group of gods from the same religion and many other different things. The truth is that it is an alliance of God Kings and the Primordial Gods that lead the alliance. The need of those alliances is to help each other out and protect the Universes in a way.”
Sylvie spoke up, “Protect the Universes?” He nodded as he turned to her, “Yes, there is a law that was made by the multiple pantheons that prevents fighting between members. There are very few exceptions, but the main one is during the tournament held every year. Primordial Gods are not allowed to fight without the presence of the ultimate beings…”
Camellia stopped him, “Ultimate beings?” He turned to her, “Yes, there are two beings above the rest in the universes and only they are able to keep a Primordial God’s power in check while they fight.” I spoke up again, “Why are you telling us all this?” He laughed as he turned to me, “Because, you all will know it eventually and there is no point in waiting until then if I can tell you now.”
We will all know it eventually, why is that? Questions started running through my head again. Dani spoke up, “Is it because of Vitamor?” I looked up at the mention of master and saw that the Skeleton King nodded his head, “Yes child, it is. I can’t tell you too much, but I can tell you that he needs you all more than you would ever know. Once one of you are accepted into his heart whole heartedly you must stay there.”
Camellia spoke up, “We have to stay there?” He nodded his head, “Yes, it sounds like enslavement sort of, but he will never treat you as slaves. Hell, he probably cares about you guys more than himself.” Dani sighed, “He always has been an extremely caring and stubborn ass, at least to those he cares about.” The Skeleton King laughed, “That may be an understatement.” Dani raised an eyebrow, “What makes you say that?”
He shrugged his shoulders, “Just from what I have been told.” Dani squinted her eyes, “What have you been told?” Skeleton Key laughed, “It’s cute that you care about him so much, but it’s sad that he never noticed back on your home planet. You even made it so obvious to him so many times.” She widened her eyes, “Have you been watching me?” He laughed and shook his head, “Don’t flatter yourself child, my master’s sibling has kept an eye on Vitamor for years. They know more about him than you ever did.”
Dani shook her head, “So you know about that one time then?” He laughed, “If you mean the one time you pretty much told him to fuck you then yes.” The other two girls and I moved closer and stared at Dani. She laughed, “What are y’all looking at?” Sylvie spoke up, “We want to know what happened.” Dani laughed, “It’s nothing that interesting. I have loved him for years, which y’all already know, and he was too stubborn to see it. I didn’t think it could get worse so I decided to take the initiative and I told him that I wanted him to take my virginity.”
She stopped for a second and we were being quiet waiting on her to continue. Skeleton King was looking off in another direction. She sighed, “I was wrong though. His response to my advance was something I never expected from the opposite sex…”
*Flashback Dani POV*
I took a deep breath and then walked into JD’s room. He was playing video games like usual and he acknowledged my entrance without a glance, “Hey Dani.” I smiled and looked at the man I loved for a couple of minutes before answering, “Sup J.” He laughed, “Just taking my frustrations out on some whiney brats. Their voices hurt my ears, but their curses at the amount of times I kill them is like music.”
I shook my head and checked out the scoreboard that was up on the screen at the moment. At the end of the match JD had thirty-two kills and two deaths. I smiled, “You only died twice, nice.” He shook his head, “One of those deaths is from my own kill streak.” I raised an eyebrow, “How did your kill streak kill you?” He sighed, “I ran into the path of its bullets while it was shooting at someone else.”
I grabbed my gut and laughed. He frowned and then punched me in the side, “It’s not funny.” He grinned and hit him in the shoulder, “Who you kidding it’s hysterical.” He tried to get up and grab me. I stepped back a bit and he missed. I stuck my tongue out at him and then smacked him on the ass, “Too slow.” He growled and then lunged at me again. We tumbled around a bit and poked and pinched each other. We ended up on his bed with him pinning my arms to it.
He was straddling me and we were both breathing hard. The position was very erotic looking and the heavy breathing didn’t help any. I bit my lip, “JD can I ask you something?” He tilted his head, “What is it?” He didn’t move from his position, but I didn’t mind. It was very stimulating and it made my breathing a little more ragged. I was still biting my lip, “I want you to take me. Right here, right now.”
He widened his eyes and I could see a little lust in them, but it was quickly hidden behind a glaze of nothingness. He smiled, “Dani, you should keep yourself for someone you love.” He let go of my hands and sat on the edge of the bed. He sighed and then whispered something that I barely heard, “And someone who deserves that love.” He stood up and looked at me with a smile, “There is no need to hurry. Someone who you love enough will come along and then you can have your fun.”
I raised an eyebrow, “Are you telling me no?” He sighed, “I’m telling you to give yourself to someone you love. Sex is something that should be done between people that love each other. Also in my opinion if I am going to have sex with someone they are going to be my woman and no one elses.” I sighed, “What if she leaves you?” He smiled, “I just have to make sure I don’t give her reason to.” I furrowed my brows, “What if someone tries to take her from you.”
His eyes turned black quickly and I rubbed my eyes. When I was done his eyes were back to normal while he spoke, “Then I just have to get rid of that threat.” He said it so nonchalantly that it kind of scared me. I forgot about his eyes and thought that it must have been my imagination. I sighed, “Do you think that I don’t love you?” He smiled, “Do you?” I furrowed my brows, “I just told you to fuck me, what do you think?”
He shook his head, “I think that you probably just got dumped by another boyfriend and you want to relieve some frustrations. I was starting to get pissed; I cursed at him and then left his room, shutting the door behind me. When the door shut I stopped walking I stared at the floor in the hallway and I felt the tears run down my face. I cursed at myself and then cursed at him. Why can’t he see how I feel! I am making it so obvious that I love him, why can’t he see that!? I looked back at his door again before I went home for the night.

We were all listening to her story intently and after she finished Camellia spoke up, “Was he really that slow when it came to women?” She looked at Sylvie who just shrugged her shoulders. I thought that the master was a little perverted and very straight forward. Dani sighed, “Was it just me?” She looked a little dejected and I was about to say something, but the Skeleton King spoke up, “It has nothing to do with you, child. It has everything to do with him. His personality changed a little bit when he was transported to this universe.”
She looked at him, “His personality changed?” She looked a little worried, but the Skeleton King just laughed, “Don’t worry. The only thing that has really changed is his confidence. He is much more confident in the majority of the things he does.” Dani breathed a sigh of relief and then smiled. I shook my head, “Since there is nothing we can do about master right now, let’s get back to training.
*Vitamor’s POV*
I was staring at Queen Silthis, who was a good two to three feet taller than I was. Other than her spider like body she was a very beautiful woman. Her breasts were a little on the smaller side for my taste, but other than that she was beautiful. Her black hair came down and rested on her small mounds. Her eyes were as black as her hair, but they seemed like they could draw you in if you stared long enough. Her skin was a pale white compared to her black lower half. It probably had something to do with the lack of sunlight.
She leaned down and was face to face with me. I stared into her eyes and I fought against something that felt like it was entering my brain. I blinked back into the cage with Xylnick, “What the fuck was that?” She laughed, “Oh ho, someone who actually managed to fight off my compulsion.” I shook my head, “You tried to compel me?” She shrugged her shoulders, “So what if I did? What are you going to do about it.”
I was about to answer, but there was another voice in my head, “Oh ho, someone caused your shield to crack a little.” I stiffened up, because I knew what that voice belonged too. The queen saw me stiffen and she tilted her head, “I wasn’t trying to scare you or anything.” I was busy trying to find this invisible wall in my mind and wasn’t paying attention. When did someone, put up a shield to block it? I don’t remember any one messing with me.
I didn’t hear the queen, but I did hear its voice using my mouth, “You think that he would be scared of you, you insignificant little insect.” The queen stiffened up and then grinned, “Oh ho. So the little human has something else inside of him. No wonder he was able to avoid my compulsion.” My body laughed, “You call that a compulsion? This brats mind was already enough to lock me up even before that bitch put up a shield around me. Thanks to you that shield has weakened a little and I can finally communicate to him and the outside world.”
I cursed in my head, “Shut the fuck up and go back where you were.” I heard its laughter, “Brat you want to get rid of me just like that? I told you, if you just accept me I can give you everything you ever wanted.” I growled and I saw the Queen and her men take a step back. The growl sounded more animal than anything. I gritted my teeth, “I said go back!” I mustered some mana and sent it at the being.
It laughed, “Really? You’re going to send an attack my way? Foolish!” The mana wave I sent towards him was destroyed and the mana literally disappeared. The Queen stiffened up, “Why did the mana in the air just get thinner?” The voice spoke through me again, “Because I destroyed it that’s why!” The Queen and her guards scoffed at me, “Quick speaking bullshit creature. Mana cannot be created or destroyed. It is a law that has been in place since the beginning of time.
The being inside of me laughed again, “Fools! Nothing is forever and everything can be destroyed!” I yelled, “Shut the fuck up!” I finally found the shield and repaired it using some of my mana pool. Using almost all of my mana I was able to fill the crack in some and keep it from using my body to speak.
I collapsed on one knee and Xylnick supported me, “Are you okay sire?” I was breathing raggedly and my head hurt like hell, but I nodded towards him. The Queens men pointed their spears at us and the Queen spoke, “What the hell was that?” I tried speaking between breaths, “I don’t know what it is, but I know it isn’t something good.”
She looked me up and down before she spoke again, “Is it gone?” I sighed, “It isn’t gone, but the shield has been patched and it shouldn’t be able to see or speak with my body.” That doesn’t mean it can’t still talk to me. I paid some attention to the shield and I could hear it speaking, “This shield can’t hold me forever, I will find a way to control you and when I do I will take everything from you!”
I sighed, “I can’t let you control me and I definitely can’t let you harm those close to me. I will figure out a way to subdue you or destroy you. Either one works for me.” It laughed, “You can’t destroy me! I am Destruction! I destroy, I don’t get destroyed!” I laughed, “Someone is a little hypocritical now. Didn’t you say that everything could be destroyed? Doesn’t that mean you as well?” It actually didn’t respond to me and I snorted as I brought my attention back to the Queen.
She was in the middle of a rant, “…don’t zone out when someone is talking to you!” I sighed and rubbed the bridge of my nose, “Would you please stop yelling. I have had enough yelling for one day.” She snorted, “Now you decide to be with us.” I shrugged my shoulders, “Sorry.” She laughed, “For someone being held against their will you seem pretty calm.” I laughed, “It honestly reminds me of the time I met my wife.”
She raised an eyebrow, “You were a captive when you met your mate?” I shrugged my shoulders, “Pretty much. Her daughter was interrogating me whenever I saw her through a hologram.” The Queen nodded, “Oh ho, your wife must be pretty important if her daughter was interrogating you. Is she a member of your military?” I grinned, “Not really.” The Queen seemed interested for some reason and made the lamias lower their weapons.
She looked at me again, “If she isn’t a member of your military then why was she able to talk to you when you were getting interrogated?” I grinned, “Because she is an Empress.” The lamias and the queen stiffened a bit, “She is an Empress? That would make you…” I nodded, “An Emperor, correct.”
She looked at her men and then they all started laughing. After a few minutes of laughing she spoke, “That’s a good story, but there is one problem.” The cage turned off and she used one of her legs and stuck it against my throat, “There is no way someone as weak as you would be an Emperor, especially with that evil being inside of you. Maybe I should kill you and go visit this so called Empress…” I grinned and shrugged my shoulders, “Believe what you want…” I gripped her leg and released some of my Destructive Aura, “...but don’t you ever threaten my woman.”
My Destructive Aura was stronger than my regular Aura and could make even a God Rank feel fear from just the sight of it. The Queen may not fear it, but it could at least deter her, or that is my hope at least. I squeezed on her leg and sent some of the Aura to my hand. I could hear some cracking and I could see little cracks spread along her leg. She gasped and tried to pull her leg back. I let go and stood there smiling at her.
She stepped back a bit, “You’re just an Immortal Power Rank. How could your grip be so strong?” I grinned, “I may be an Immortal Power Rank, but you seem to use magic, which means your body shouldn’t be that strong.” She gritted her teeth, “I am a God Princess Magic Rank! My body should be at least at the Demi-God Level due to magical reinforcement.” I sighed, “Honestly a real Demi-God Level body wouldn’t last long under my Destructive Aura let alone a pseudo Demi-God Level body.”
She tilted her head, “Destructive Aura? What is that? I have heard of an Aura or Elemental Aura, because I have one, but never have I heard of a Destructive Aura.” I grinned, “Allow me to show you a Destructive Aura then.” I really hate using this aura, because it doesn’t differentiate friend from foe and it feels really cheaty and it’s really the power of that thing, but fuck it.
I raised my arms to the side and released my Destructive Aura. Xylnick was as close to the wall as he could get, because he heard about my Aura from Zellfina before we left. A black cloud spread from my body with little purple lightning zipping about. Cracks in space were appearing where this lightning struck, before it quickly mended itself. I could see that the lamias were shaking and the Queen couldn’t stop staring at me for some reason.
My Aura reached one of the Demi-God guards and when it touched their body they stiffened and then fell to the ground. Their eyes were lifeless and everywhere on his body that the cloud was touching started to disintegrate. The building itself was reinforced with her magic so it was able to last longer than the lamia. Once my Aura started to destroy the walls and floor I recalled it.
The cloud rolled back into my body and the lightning bolts dissipated into thin air. I put my arms down and stared at the Queen, “Is that enough of a demonstration?” She stood there staring for a few minutes before she shook her head. She then looked at me before walking over towards me. What really creeped me out was that it honestly looked like she was trying to walk seductively.
She leaned down and put her finger under my chin, “Your eyes looked like one of ours for a minute there. I found it really attractive. Would you like to be my king?” Seriously? What the fuck is this shit!? I feel like I am in a story where the author is really trying to set me up with every fucking girl that is fucking hot. If that is what the author wants to do then whatever, might as well enjoy the story. Although if it wasn’t for the fact that she had a spider bottom I may have to have a little fun at least.
I quickly shook my head and smiled at her, “Sorry, but I can’t really afford to bring anyone else into my circle right now.” She clicked her tongue before looking my body up and down, “If it’s because of my lower half, my species is perfectly able to mate with yours.” I started to seriously get some ideas in my head of how that would be possible, but I tried to think straight.
I smiled at her, “It has nothing to do with that. I honestly need to see how my wives feel about it before I make any rash decisions.” She clicked her tongue again, “Wives?” I nodded, “I have four of them.” She snorted, “Pretty fickle when it comes to love aren’t you.” I shrugged my shoulders, “Not really. I love my woman equally and I would do anything for any of them, but I will not do anything that makes them unhappy on purpose. Bringing in another woman without discussing it with them may make them unhappy.”
She smiled, “We should go and talk to them then.” I sighed, “Why are you being so adamant about this?” She grinned, “Why are you being so adamant about rejecting me?” I snorted, “I gave you one of my reasons.” She smiled, “Well I have my reasons as well.” I furrowed my brows, “What reason is that?” She laughed, “You tell me your other reason first.”
I sighed and pointed at her chest, “You’re too small for my liking.” She laughed, “Is that it?” She snapped her finger and her breasts started to grow right in front of my eyes. They went from a C-Cup to an F- Cup in an instant. She looked at them and then smiled at me, “Magic is such a wonderful thing. Is that the only other reason?” I felt my eye twitch, “You never told me your reason.”
She smiled, “Well it isn’t really a reason, but more of a need. I need you to accept me and be my mate.” I raised an eyebrow, “Why do you need me to be your mate?” She showed a really big smile, “I need to have babies soon and you are the only person I have found attractive.” If I was drinking I would have spit it out. I stuttered, “B.b.babies!?” She just stood there smiling at me.
