Ragnarok

As Odin declared the start of Ragnarok, Alex's heart felt as if it was going to beat out of his chest from excitement at the current situation. Now not only was he facing the might of the entire Olympian pantheon, but every single other major faction that wasn't already under his control had gathered for one large blow out. What hot blooded Saiyan wouldn't be excited at such a thought?

Unfortunately, before Alex could get too excited, several magic circles appeared around him that flashed before revealing the members of his peerage(minus Yue), each and every single one geared up for battle. Alex's expression morphed into a mock pout as he stated,

"I suppose you're all here to ruin my fun, aren't you?" A few of the girls giggled at Alex's pouting, while Grayfia dead panned at him and said,

"Count on you to consider facing every single one of the most powerful beings in the world at once as 'fun'." Without any hesitation Alex responded,

"Of course, what else would you consider such a line up?" Grayfia then started to massage her temples at Alex's attitude, while Lala said in her typical carefree tone,

"This does look very 'fun' though! There's so many people out here to 'play' with us!" With yet another round of giggles coming from girls like Lala, Lucy, Mirajane, Kurumu, Shia, and Kuroka, no one appeared intimidated in the slightest at the daunting sight of the armies gathered around them, while even Typhon, King of the monsters, made his appearance as he finally finished climbing up mount Olympus.

Shaking her head yet again, Grayfia muttered to no one in particular,

"Our idea of 'fun' is getting too warped..." Ignoring yet the third round of giggles in response to her exasperation, Grayfia then looked at Alex and asked,

"So, is there at least a plan?" Alex smiled wryly at first in response to her question, as his original plan had been to just dive right in to the fight and do as he pleased. But, knowing that wouldn't fly with Grayfia, he instead said,

"How about... Shizuku, Lucy, Lala, Kurumu, and Yami work on crowd control, keep the masses busy so that they can't overwhelm anyone with numbers. Meanwhile Grayfia, Shia, Moka, Mirajane, Rias, Erza, and Kuroka will target the heavy hitters such as the legendary heroes and gods. Sun will stay back with me and work on support, and where is Yue?" As Alex ended by asking where his second 'Bishop' was, the rest of the girls looked around awkwardly while Rias said irritably,

"That worthless chibi said she had other things to do, but I couldn't tell you what exactly is more important than this!" Rias then continued to rant while the rest of the girls just shook their heads at her, though it wasn't as if they didn't understand how she felt.

Anything else that they wanted to say or do was cut off as Odin began to amass a massive amount of divine power, which he then channeled into his Lance, Gungnir, before throwing it directly at Alex. As the divine weapon flew through the air it split the skies while homing in with deadly precision towards its target. Normally the enchantments in Gungnir made it impossible for the divine weapon to miss its target, however all Alex did to defend himself was stick his finger out, catching and halting the divine weapon without any discernible effort on the tip of his finger.

With a smirk on his lips, Alex then proceeded to grab the body of the Lance before spinning it to face Odin this time. The old god's one eye widened in shock, before Alex then chucked it at him with even more force than he had.

Instead of merely splitting the skies, Alex's throw split the air above and the earth below, while simultaneously tearing a hole through to the Dimensional Gap as it raced with deadly accuracy towards the chief of the Norse gods. Odin couldn't even react in time with the speed in which Alex threw his own weapon at him, only being able to sit there in his saddle as his own weapon approached him almost instantaneously.

There was then a horrible crunching noise that churned the stomachs of everyone nearby where Odin was sitting, until they actually saw that he was fine after Alex's attack. Well, mostly fine.

Instead of being skewered like everyone thought, Alex had instead thrown Gungnir slightly to the side to avoid an actual fatal hit on the elderly God, instead ripping off and destroying Odin's helm while also inflicting a nasty cut down the side of his face. With the sound of Odin's helm being destroyed ringing out everywhere, the girls decided to take that as the signal to start fighting.

As one the girls surged forward while fanning out, Rias leading the charge against the gods as she transitioned to her Super Devil form and approached Shiva himself, while Shizuku created several shadow clones as she lead the charge against the heroes and warriors, with Jin at her side. Meanwhile Sun's beautiful voice soon began to fill the air as she layered her songs to have multiple effects, one to slowly wound any enemies that heard it, and a couple to buff the girls as they fought.

Lucy meanwhile stayed behind alongside Sun and Alex as she opened her 'Archive', before she pulled out three golden keys.

"Open the gates of the Lion, Archer, and the Bull! Leo, Sagittarius, and Taurus!" After a flash of golden light three figures stood there as they prepared to go into battle, all of which looked marginally different than the first time Alex met them. With Lucy's connection to Alex's system any creature she had a contract with could gain experience as they fought, though of course they didn't have access to the job part of his system.

Now they, alongside the monsters that Lucy had tamed, could grow stronger along with her as Lucy traveled between the worlds. This became evident when Lucy then proceeded to pull out a custom made key that opened two portals besides her, through which a small army of powerful monsters appeared around her.

A commotion broke amongst the warriors on the other side as they got their first look at monsters from another world, some of which appeared to simply be monstrous versions of regular animals, while others truly appeared to be monsters. The most monstrous specimen out of all of them though was a great seven headed hydra, a beast that was Hajime's attempt to recreate the boss creature at the bottom of the Orcus Great Labyrinth.

With the girls and monsters charging forwards into battle in front of her, Lala trailed behind them with her usual bright and carefree self, making one think she was going to play or something instead of fighting some of the most powerful beings in that world. Unfortunately for her her lapse in attention was taken advantage of by none other than Typhon, who moved much faster than his giant frame should have as he proceeded to smack the Devilukian Princess with the tip of his serpentine tail, laughing as he did so.

"HAHA! RULE NUMBER ONE ON THE BATTLEFIELD, NEVER LET YOUR GUARD DOWN FOR EVEN THE SLIGHTEST SECOND!"

While most people would have at least some reservations about blindly attacking someone like Lala, Typhon assumed that, under her innocent and naive exterior, there had to be a reason that she managed to become a part of Alex's peerage. Contrary to his expectations though, when Lala picked herself out of the pile of rubble that had fallen down onto her from the building he had sent her flying into, she had tears in her eyes while her lower lip quivered like a child about to throw a tantrum.

"You're not supposed to be rude to girls, you big MEANIE!"

Shouting that word like it was the most horrible thing she could think of, Typhon and the other gods got the surprise of the millennium as Lala's voice tore across the sky like a shockwave, tearing apart any remaining clouds and the constant chain of storms that always raged around Typhon in seconds, while the king of monsters had to cover his ears due to the assault towards his eardrums.

While he was the one distracted this time, Lala then used the enhanced speed from promoting to 'Queen' to approach the king of monsters as he was still reeling from her shout, and proceeded to punch him as hard as she could in his face. Those who were watching felt their hearts turn to ice as they watched the king of monsters, one of the ten most powerful beings in the world, get sent flying from the punch of someone who, by all appearances and attitude, was no more than a little girl.

Not caring about what was going through the minds of those around her, Lala stuck her tongue out and made a face towards him before saying, "That'll teach you to pick on girls!" She then turned around and took off in search of her next opponent, not at all aware of the impression others now had of her, or that she was growing ever closer to her father in terms of power and strength.

...

While Lala was teaching the king of monsters how to treat girls, Shia was rushing through the air as she leapt from longship to longship looking for her own opponent, destroying each and every one in the process with the force of her leaps.

Instead of bothering with the millions of small fries that Odin had brought with him, all of the Nordic warriors that had managed to earn their way into Valhalla, Shia was instead looking for the strongest opponents she could find to fight. Though Typhon also qualified, she didn't want to fight someone that was essentially just a giant target for her fists and hammer.

Instead, her opponent found her when something impacted her from the side this time, moving faster than sound so her ears were unable to pick it up until it had already hit her and sent her flying with a burst of lightning. Righting herself almost instantly, Shia turned around to see a fairly large hammer returning to the hand of the man who threw it at her, a giant of a man with a long mane of blonde hair, riding in a chariot pulled by a pair of giant evil looking boars that looked at her hungrily.

"You are one of the Dragon Emperor's 'Rooks', are you not?" He boomed down towards her, making Shia feel as if he was looking down at her despite the fact that his attack hadn't damaged her in the slightest.

Instead of answering him, Shia used her explosive strength to rocket herself next to the god, Thor, faster than he could blink as she reached back with her hand distorting space itself.

"I don't know who you are, but don't think you're the only one with a special hammer BITCH!" Thor didn't even have time to react as Shia pulled her own beloved hammer, Dorykun, out of thin air and slammed it into him and his chariot, sending him and the boars flying while his chariot was smashed to thousands of pieces from the force of Shia's hit.

Watching him fly away, Shia snorted as she remarked,

"If he was that easy to send flying then he couldn't have been anyone important, let's go find someone else to fight!" Not knowing or caring that the man she just sent flying away was also one of the ten strongest beings in the world, Shia swiftly began looking for her next opponent until her gaze settled on one parson in particular, who was rippling with enough muscle to rival even Alex with a lions pelt draped across his shoulders.

Sensing her gaze, the man looked up at her and rumbled in a deep voice,

"Are you just going to stare, or are you going to come down here and fight?" Sensing the man was powerful, Shia's heart began to pound in excitement at the thought of truly testing her strength against another muscle-head besides Alex.

Shia quickly put away her beloved hammer before launching herself to the ground in front of the hulking man like a rocket, where the two glared at each other with undisguised excitement at their impending battle.

"I am Heracles, son of Zeus. Will you honor me by giving me your name as well?" Shia smile widely and fearlessly as she responded,

"Shia of the Haulia tribe, wife and 'Rook' of the Dragon Emperor!" This time Heracles flashed a fearless smile as his excitement made itself evident on his face. For him and Shia both Alex was too stupidly strong, to the point that it was almost impossible to gauge their own strength when they fought him.

With both of them flashing fearless grins, Shia and Heracles then both threw a punch at the other at the exact same moment, their fists colliding in midair to create a shockwave so powerful that the ground below them caved in, while anyone around them was blown away.

...

"COME ON MEN! FOR ASGARD, AND VALHALLA!" One of the Norsemen shouted as he led his fellow warriors to battle against Alex and his wives, earning him a roar from his countrymen in reply as they charged forward, only to suddenly collapse as a group of identical women with their long black hair tied back in a ponytail appeared behind them.

As the men collapsed from the injuries the women inflicted, one of the women muttered to herself,

"Has it truly become that easy for me to cut down another person...?" Though she was only talking to herself, another one of the women replied,

"I know, it seems like it was only yesterday that we would get queasy just from the thought..."

"And now here we are facing down an army like no other like its nothing..."

The three women, all shadow clones of Shizuku Yeagashi, then sighed as they turned to look towards their original, who was currently in her Balance Breaker form as she tore through the battlefield and cut down any who opposed her with tendrils and swords of shadows.

Despite her seemingly ruthless actions though, all of the clones knew that the same concerns were floating through their original's mind. Though, if anyone else knew of the concerns going through her mind, they would only sigh in exasperation as Shizuku was one of the last people who needed to worry about becoming a cruel and malicious person.

She then got a glimpse of someone who truly did fit that bill though, as a certain figure approached her swiftly through the crowds of people around her, cutting down anyone who stood in his way regardless of if they were friend or foe. With his arms flailing about like whips with a pair of swords in each hand, the figure quickly approached Shizuku while cackling,

"HAHAHAHAHA! You seem like quite the warrior maiden little missy! COME! LET OUR STEEL MEET IN BATTLE AND KNOW THAT IVAR THE BONELESS WILL BE THE ONE TO COLLECT YOUR HEAD!" As if to punctuate his declaration, Ivar then proceeded to lick the blood of his fellow Norsemen off of his blades before pointing them at Shizuku, showing his intention to defeat her.

Though her face was hidden by the darkness of her Balance Breaker transformation, Shizuku narrowed her eyes in distaste at Ivar's behavior. The next thing the Nordic warrior knew, he was on his back as a cold and familiar chill crept through his body.

"...done....already...?" He uttered in a last attempt to provoke Shizuku further, unaware that she had already moved on to her next several opponents as she and her clones slowly and methodically made their way through the entire army.

Meanwhile Grayfia was using a fairly.....flashier way to deal with the armies from the south, along with their respective gods. Instead of defeating her opponents one at a time like Shizuku was, Grayfia was instead using her magic on one hand to defeat hundreds of the Egyptian Medjay at once, while her other was being used to combat the Egyptian gods that had accompanied Horus.

Though this would usually be difficult even for one of Alex's girls to manage, Grayfia wasn't even breaking a sweat since she had transitioned to her Super Devil form, allowing her to fight with unparalleled magical strength while also seizing control of any magical attacks her opponents directed towards her. Using her skillful control over magic power, Grayfia then began to make all of the excess magic and demonic powers around her swirl like a massive demonic typhoon, which buffeted and attacked anyone foolish enough to get too close to her.

The energies surrounding Grayfia paled in comparison to what Rias was doing though, as she too had transformed into her Super Devil form, and was battling Shiva directly above them. Not only was the scale of their battle enough to strike fear into the hearts of the warriors, heroes, and even some of the gods blow them, but the swirling vortex of both divine and demonic Destruction that surrounded the duo promised a swift and horrible end for any foolish enough to venture too close.

...

While some girls like Shizuku or Shia were working methodically through their opponents, and Grayfia and Mirajane were using large amounts of magic power to fight, Yami quickly established herself as yet another terror on the battlefield with her Transform. No matter how many opponents tried to surround or overwhelm her, Yami's hair would turn into a variety of weapons that easily held them at bay while other strands of her hair would finish them off, leaving an ever growing pile of bodies around her.

Though she was quickly becoming a terror amongst the lower ranking warriors, many of the stronger warriors and gods quickly reached the conclusion that Yami wouldn't be able to fight them as easily. While normally they'd be correct since she wasn't using her Darkness transformation(due to it's rather 'lewd' side effects), none of them could confirm if that was the case or not due to a certain silver haired vampiress keeping them all at bay.

With Yami dealing with the small fries below her, Moka had activated her own Shinzo transformation and was currently taking on any one else that tried to approach her. With a bloodthirsty grin on her face, Moka was surrounded by a growing vortex of blood from both herself and her enemies as each drop cut anyone around her like a blade, while anyone who managed to get close enough to her only ended up getting their faces smashed in by one of her feet.

Moka wasn't the only one that taking on the gods though, as Erza used her favorite armor, which amplified her telekinetic control over weapons, to carve her way through the battlefield without opposition as she turned the weapons of her opponents against them. Her charge went seemingly unimpeded until a certain individual approached her purposely, hatred in his gaze as his mere presence made all of the weapons around him tremble.

Sensing the man's approach, Erza halted her advance as she turned to face him, and all of her instincts began screaming at her about how dangerous this man was. "Who are you?" She demanded as even the numerous warriors around them began to clear an area, confirming that her next opponent was no ordinary person.

Glaring at her with an unmatched hatred, the God stated,

"I am the God of war, Ares. Your 'King' broke the heart of the person I love most, so it is only fitting that I do the same to him by presenting him with your corpse!" Finished with what he had to say, Ares suddenly shot towards Erza at such speeds that even she had a hard time managing to block his attack.

CLANG!

The sound of metal on metal rang out like a bell over the din of battle around them, drawing all surrounding attention to them as one of the greatest mages from Earthland prepared to fight the literal God of war. Though, Erza knew she would need to utilize ever weapon in her arsenal if she wanted to secure victory.

...

While his wives battled around him all of the enemies around him, Alex sat back on another throne he created as he watched, obviously bummed out that he wasn't fighting himself. As the battle really got under way though, Alex was surprised as he suddenly received a notification through his system.

[NOTICE! Aphrodite's curse has been inflicted!]

Curious, Alex looked into what the curse he apparently received entailed, and was surprised even more when he saw the description.

[Aphrodite's curse: turns any and all forms of affection and positive opinions towards the inflicted into disgust and hatred.]

Alex's jaw dropped when he read that, only to see both Sun and Lucy suddenly look back at him with disgust and hatred in their eyes just like the curse's description said.

"That won't do at all!" Alex said as he used his powers to dispel the curse from himself immediately, making both Lucy and Sun suddenly blink in confusion. Before either could ask what had happened though, Kuroka's voice roared in all of their heads,

'WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?' With Kuroka conveying all of their confusion with her swearing and lack of verbal tick, everyone made their outrage evident when Alex explained,

'Aphrodite apparently didn't take my rejection well, and tried to inflict a curse on me turning any positive feelings towards me negative. Don't worry though, I already dispelled it.' Rather than the relief that he expected from them, instead all Alex felt from peerage members was anger at having someone, albeit momentarily, mess with their emotions.

'I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL HER!' Kuroka roared once again in their minds as she immediately turned her attention to where the goddess of love was on the battlefield, however someone else said,

'No. I'll deal with her.' Though her words were deathly calm, most of the girls shuddered at the underlying fury contained in Kurumu's mental voice.

Succubi were creatures of love, all of Kurumu's power literally came from her love towards Alex, and as such she was the one who was the most furious at the thought of some 'lowly' goddess trampling on the very foundations of her existence.

The next moment they all witnessed just how serious Kurumu was when she honed in on exactly where Aphrodite was in the mess of fighters, and a massive swirling pink vortex formed around her. Unlike the vortexes of power that had been formed by Grayfia, Moka, and Rias though, Kurumu's didn't actually hurt anybody. Instead, anyone unfortunate enough to be caught in the vortex felt an uncontrollable heat enter their bodies, which then prompted them to quickly shed any layers on their bodies before they grabbed the nearest person(man or woman) to act on the desire now filling them.

Not caring about the massive orgy developing around her, the blue haired Succubus focused her attention on the goddess of love that had now made her way to the battlefield, intending to get revenge on Alex for rejecting her.

"Out of my way bitch!" Aphrodite snarled when she saw Kurumu approaching her, to which Kurumu sneered back as her perfectly trimmed and maintained nails began to extend,

"I don't think so." As she approached Kurumu's tail flicked back and forth in agitation, while her ears elongated into points and her pupils changed into a heart shape.

"If you think you can mess with MY love as you wish, then YOU have another thing coming you little pest of a 'goddess'!"

***

Odin's expression darkened as he watched the battle progress, with things painfully evident that Alex's side was winning. Even if they were vastly outnumbered, each of Alex's girls was tearing their way through their forces with ease while their master simply sat back and watched.

With the powers imbued in his 'bad' eye, Odin could 'see' just how well Alex's girls complimented each other with their fighting styles. While not as 'powerful' as the others, the girls such Lala, Shizuku, Yami, Lucy, and Sun were all scary in their own rights.

Through his eye, Odin could see the tendrils of power connecting Lucy to her summons and tamed monsters, suggesting to him that there was more to her summons than the usual contracts summoners had in this world. Shizuku on the other hand was like most 'Knights' from the underworld, lacking in terms of explosive and flashy power, yet was scarily proficient and deadly with what she had to work with, while her 'fake' Longinus only added to her deadly arsenal.

Lala on the other hand had quite a bit of power, but her innocent nature made it obvious that she wouldn't use it like Shia or Moka. Instead the terrifying thing about her was the numerous machines that she constantly used during the battle, each of which were so unpredictable(and ridiculous) that her opponents would never know what to expect from her.

Then there was Yami, who appeared to be capable because of her ability to fight so many opponents at once along with her apparent versatility in the way that she could seemingly Transform her body into any perceivable weapon, but Odin knew better thanks to his eye. Within her body Yami was hiding a tremendous amount of power that, terrifyingly enough, seemed to rival even Shiva's, meaning that Yami had the potential to dish out attacks on a planetary scale like the God of destruction. Why she wasn't using it Odin couldn't say, wether because she couldn't control it or because there was some kind of unspeakable side effect, but there was no doubt the power was there.

Most terrifying of all though, was perhaps Sun.

When he looked at the petite siren Odin could actually see the monstrous amount of Youkai energy that was swirling around her, which had only grown larger after Alex helped her learn to speak and move on from suppressing her voice. More than that though, he could see the sound waves of her voice and what effect they had on the battlefield. Not only was Sun assisting her allies by buffing them with her 'songs', but he could even tell that she was slowly, but surely, damaging each and every one of those who were standing against them, all on a level that the recipients themselves couldn't even notice. As a result, even some of the most powerful beings present were being defeated with less effort than anyone would've thought possible, as all of the gradual damage they had acquired was inflicted upon them as soon as they took a single attack.

With Sun's song bringing down the potential of every single one of their allies, Odin didn't hesitate to point his finger at her and say to the chief Valkyrie at his side,

"Brynhildr, that siren needs to be taken out as soon as possible! If she continues singing then none of us will be able to put up any kind of fight!" The aforementioned Valkyrie slammed her gauntleted fist into her breast as she saluted her chief God, and shouted,

"At once my liege!" The light blue haired valkyrie then turned towards the several hundred similarly armored companions that had followed her to this battlefield, and declared with a raised fist,

"FOR ODIN, AND ASGARD!" Nearly a thousand Valkyries shouted back at her as they prepared to enter the fray, and charged after Brynhildr as she made a beeline straight for Alex.

"Chief, isn't it suicide to attack the Dragon Emperor?" One of Brunhildr's most capable Valkyries, Helmwige, asked as they sped up towards her, to which the chief Valkyrie only slowly nodded as she explained,

"That's why he isn't our current opponent, the siren is. If we directly charge her though, then they'll be able to properly prepare for us." Helmwige nodded slowly in understanding after hearing her chief's reasoning why they were charging Alex directly, but she still couldn't help but to worry due to how close to Alex they were going to be.

Before they could even get close though, Brynhildr felt a familiar presence approach as the sky was suddenly filled with hundreds of magic circles.

"HALT!" Brynhildr called out to all of the Valkyries around her, before they all looked up to see none other than one of their former comrades, Rosswiese, floating above them in a nearly identical, yet distinctly different, set of silver armor.

While normally the sight of her former subordinate wouldn't worry her like this, Brynhildr felt her skin crawl as she sensed the power coming from Rosswiese while she easily maintained hundreds of magic circles, no doubt her own creations since none of the Valkyries were able to properly read them.

"Surrender, or our hands will be forced."

Seeing her confidence and power as she spoke down to them, Brynhildr couldn't help but wonder what happened to that shy and anxious girl she once knew. Rosswiese had always been talented and powerful, as evidenced by how she had been chosen to act as Odin's assistant and body guard, but the biggest problem with her was her lack of confidence and attitude. Now however it was like she was a completely different person as Rosswiese stared down at them, waiting for their answer.

Instead of being cowed though, Brynhildr stared back at her former subordinate and declared,

"You know we can't do that Rose, the All-father's orders are absolute!" Nodding as she expected nothing less, Rosswiese then surprised them as she said,

"I know.... VALKYRIES!"

Thinking she was talking to them, Brynhildr and the rest readied themselves for an attack from their former comrade, but they never expected what came next.

Instead of being some form of attack like they expected, every Valkyrie present was shocked when the magic circles Rosswiese had created shined before fading to reveal an entire army. Several hundred women adorned in matching silver armor, half of which appeared identical with their silver eyes and light blue hair, while the other half were all different yet still beautiful women.

While they were still struck silent, Rosswiese then shouted,

"VALKYRIES, WHO DO YOU SERVE!?"

The sky roared with metallic clangs as each and every one saluted just as Brynhildr had earlier, and each one roared back,

"""WE SERVE THE DRAGON EMPEROR!!!"""

Nodding slowly in silent pride in them, Rosswiese then declared,

"GO THEN! SHOW THEM THE POWER OF THE EMPEROR'S VALKYRIES! SHOW THEM THE MIGHT OF ASORA!"

Immediately following her declaration, the sky was filled with light as each and every one of her Valkyries prepared to attack, the former apostles of Ehito either drawing their twin swords or preparing some form of powerful magic, while the Pandora all summoned their specialty volt weapons.
