Sim Empire

"You're either very brave or very stupid to come here, Halfling." I say, resting my chin on my fist as I lounge in my throne, looking down at the Halfling girl who was brave enough to request a meeting with me, I don't exactly like the midgets after all. "Is there any reason I shouldn't just end you where you stand?" I ask, I'm not going too of course, I have no reason to kill her but I am a fantasy dark lord, I have a part to play. As I lounge on my throne, Serena stands to my right and Rose my left, and the Halfling standing at the bottom of the steps up to the platform my throne is on. Erebus is over to the side, waiting for her to even blink wrong as he glares at her, he's like a magic attack dog that can offer leadership advise when he isn't mauling my foes. Inferna and Hakon are next to him, this is mostly for Fay, just in case.

She wouldn't even reach my chest if I was standing next to her, she's cute though, most of the halflings I've seen so far have been hideous like their former leader, she has short ginger hair that doesn't quite reach her shoulders as she looks up at me with large brown eyes. I might have mistook her for a child if it wasn't for her obviously mature body, children don't have tits like that after all.

She's better dressed than most, her clothes look common enough but the fabric looks nicer than what most of her kind have, better than what the peasants have as well, it's not quite Noble quality, but it's somewhere in between. Why don't halflings wear shoes? Her feet are bare, I know halflings have thick soles but surely shoes wouldn't hurt?

"My Lord, I am Holly Underbelly, daughter of Melvin and the current leader of the Halflings... and I have come to surrender." she says as she kneels on one knee.

That thing had a daughter?

How?

Wait, no I don't want to know.

"Surrender? I wasn't aware that we were at war, your kind are a thorn in my side at best, and a small one at that, not an enemy." I say coldly, the Halflings are a non-existent problem with Inferna keeping them in check after all, I was leaning towards genocide as a permanent solution for them, why negotiate with a soon to be corpse?

"That's correct, My Lord... we can't challenge you, and if nothing changes then we face our extinction as a result. You have won, and I have come to surrender control of the halflings to you, if you'll have us we will serve you in whatever capacity you desire..." she says quickly making me pause.

Or I could just take over them instead I guess, I was just going to have them all killed to stop them from being an annoyance, but more forces are always good I suppose...

It almost worries me how easily I was contemplating Genocide as a solution for a minor annoyance, if anything it disturbs me that it doesn't disturb me. The Remorseless trait is powerful, but it also serves a purpose, I don't want to deal with having breakdowns over everything I've done.

I've done a lot of morally questionably things, and a lot more straight up evil things, getting rid of Remorseless would probably hinder more than it helps, as long as my actions benefit me I don't really care how 'evil' they are, but that will only last as long as I have Remorseless, I don't trust Gamer's Mind to keep me calm after all, it should work but it's been unreliable in the past.

Gamers without the full Gamers Mind are basically machines, only making 'logical' decisions without any emotion behind their actions.

They're incredibly boring, I learnt that with the Third gamer.

Getting that robot killed was one of my more satisfying moments.

He was pretty dull, he didn't even like sex...

And he had exactly zero pride, you should have seen him when I let him Observe me, he just turned and fled on the spot, ditched his party without a second thought...

Like he could escape from me once I started hunting.

He does sound boring, being only guided by Logic doesn't sound fun at all.

Back to what I was doing... looking down at the slightly trembling halfling I consider my options, the quickest is that I just kill her and take some forces with me to wipe her people out, removing the halflings from this world entirely.

Or I accept and take over the Halflings. I'd have to keep control of them, watch them carefully for betrayals and scheming, would they even by useful for me? They're subpar warriors, and they're all as dumb as the peasants of Spree. They might be more trouble than they are worth.

Still the Conqueror in me wants to take them over, and the Greedy part of me wants them as well, but I at least want them to be useful.

"And what use are your people to me? My weakest warriors can defeat your own, I have no need of more forces." I say coldly making her visibly flinch, honestly she's slightly impressing me, she clearly knew how likely her death is at my hands, and she came her anyway... she's no threat, not even level 20, but she came straight to the castle of someone who wants her and her kind dead anyway.

"We aren't fighters, My Lord... we never were, Halflings are farmers not warriors. My father forced our people to take to fighting so they could gather him more food, neglecting our farmlands in his short-sightedness... the villagers of Spree barely know how to grow crops, we Halflings have our own form of magic just for it, just give us a chance to prove our worth, My Lord, you have nothing to lose." she reasons, she isn't begging or pleading, instead she's reasoning with me, calmly despite her fear. I can respect that.

Plus her argument that the people of Spree are idiots is convincing.

"My Lord, while our current supplies are adequate, if you wish to expand you will need more food to feed your people,most of the fields around Heaven's Peak are blighted and will be incapable of feeding the people of Heaven's Peak once you conquer them... I would advise that you accept, and put the Halflings to work." Rose says drawing my attention, she's not wrong, and I hadn't considered the damage the plague would do to the food sources, I have little skill for logistics like that.

"Rose has a point, My Love. And the Halflings are pathetically weak, if they fail you, or plot against you then they can be easily exterminated..." Serena adds making me turn back to the slightly more calm Halfling.

"You realise that if you're people even start planning to betray me, I'll have your race wiped from the face of this world, and it won't be fast, their end will be slow and painful, yours will be worse." I say with a glare as she stares back, not looking away despite my threats.

"I do, My Lord." she agrees quickly, making my lips twitch slightly, she's fun and far more impressive than that pile of lard she was spawned by.

"Very well, the Halflings can join my growing Empire on two conditions. One, your people successfully prove your worth in farming by the next harvest, and Two, you become one of my Mistresses." I say, honestly I'm not that interested in her despite her... large tracks of land but having their leader as a mistress ties them to me, and in the long term I can get her pregnant and have my child rule the Halflings in the future.

It's not something I need to worry about for decades, but laying the groundwork down now just saves me some trouble down the line.

And I have a strange feeling I am going to need more food supplies sooner rather than later.

"I... As you wish, My Lord. We won't let you down, I swear it." she says quickly, surprise colouring her tone.

Halflings removed from Enemies

Halfling Village added to domains

"See that you don't. Rise, and stand next to Rose." I say gesturing to the red-head. "Gnarl, fetch the fairy... let's see what the leader of light wants with me, should be fun." I say with a chuckle, this isn't Dark Fay, this is Light Fay, Queen of all that is good and she's come crawling for a audience with me? This should be interesting.

Gnarl returns quickly leading the admittedly beautiful Fairy into the throne room, light blue hair is certainly unique in a non-anime world after all, and her pale skin is almost porcelain in nature.

"Overlord, I am-" she starts after a moment before I interrupt her.

"Queen Fay, Leader of the Elven Resistance, Champion of the Mother Goddess, Paragon of Light and lover of all that is good. I know who you are Fairy, what I don't know is what you and your people are doing in my side of the continent, you must be truly desperate to come here, why are you here?" I ask slowly making her raise an eyebrow, she's Elite 90, strong but not as strong as I expected for a leader of her people, if this turns hostile then she'll be killed.

Erebus could give her a fight even without me, and my other summons are a thought away.

I got the Champion of the Mother Goddess from her Observe Screen, I didn't actually know that, but if Momonga taught me anything it was the importance of bluffing your way through these things, it's important to seem like you know everything.

"...You are well informed, I wasn't aware you had spies on the over side of the mountain." she responds after a moment, I don't respond since I don't actually have any spies over there, and I can't send my undead since they have anti-magic abilities and I don't know how that will work with my undead. "I shall skip the introductions then, the group I have lead over the mountain is all that remains of the elven resistance, the rest are dead or enslaved, and we have been driven out as our last sanctuary was destroyed by a group known as the Brotherhood of the Fire Fist, I have come here to seek sanctuary for my people in your empire." she says making me frown.

The Brotherhood of the Fire Fist? That's... entirely too familiar, and now they're fighting for the Empire. It's going to be a pain for me to fight them when I get around to it.

But the Elven Resistance, one of my enemies... seeking sanctuary with me? That I didn't see coming. Also, she brought just under 300 people with her, that's barely anything.

"...You want me, the Overlord, essentially the Ruler of Dark, to shelter the forces of Light? To risk war with the Empire to defend people who should be my enemies?" I ask sarcastically as I stare her down, despite my bemusement she doesn't even flinch.

"Are you not planning on war with the Empire regardless? They will come for you either way." she points out.

"Of course I am, they're on my land. But I need to secure my rule of this side of the continent world first before I can start another war. I'm already dealing with the forces of 'Light' in the form of the Shining Justice and the remaining Heroes, why would I want more forces of Light moving in? We are natural enemies, and yet here you are, which brings me back to my earlier question, why are you here?" I ask with interest, why would the Leader of Light come here? I have just as much reason as the empire to want the Elven Resistance destroyed, even if we have different motives.

"The Shining Justice are no 'Forces of Light', neither are the so called Heroes, the Shining Justice are fanatical fools, and the Heroes are nothing more than depraved fools... but you have a point. I would not have come here in usual circumstances, but my Goddess sent me a vision, urging me to come here." Fay says making me frown, oh great... Gods.

Ugh.

"The Mother Goddess told you to come here? Is that supposed to matter to me? I care little for your goddess, her visions mean nothing to me. Does she even have any followers beyond your little group?" I ask making her wince slightly.

"Her followers... and power has waned due to the Heroes evil and the Empires crusade against magic, she used the last of her power to send me her, she can do nothing else now." Fay admits making me pause.

The Mother Goddess... is weak? As in, I don't have to worry about some divine punishment if I chose to destroy the Elven Resistance? From Fay's words, Gods lose power as they lose followers, and I can get rid of the Mother Goddess by destroying her worshippers...

But do I need to? Why send her champion here? Not as an assassination attempt, if it was she wouldn't send the last of her surviving Worshippers, almost completely women and children incapable of fighting. It's suicide, or at the best case scenario, mutually assured destruction even if Fay could kill me, my undead would slaughter the civilians with ease after all.

"Which means you're here alone, Fairy Queen. No army to fight for you, and no Goddess to protect you. I have little reason to help you, and every reason to kill you, something you should already know, and yet here you are." I say, as Erebus starts preparing for battle, something Fay clearly notices, despite this she barely reacts to the danger she is in.

"I would advise against that, My Lord. I can be of great use to you." she says calmly despite the looming Monarch in the background ready to attack at any moment.

"What could you possibly offer me that I couldn't get from someone who isn't practically my Natural Enemy?" I ask in amusement, Evil Presence ready to cast at any moment, Dark Fay will be far more useful as far as I can tell.

"Ruling Dark beings will come easily for you, and the more neutral beings like humans will submit as well when faced with your power, but beings of Light will fight you at every step, they would never submit to a Dark Lord, but they would a Grey Lord... I offer myself in exchange for the protection of my people, both as an advisor to help you control the beings of light and as your mistress, My Lord. Having a powerful Light figure serving you willingly would help you image massively with the lighter beings, without hurting your reputation with the Dark." she says with a deep bow, making me pause.

Grey Lord? That... is actually quite appealing. Ruling over both the forces of 'Light' and 'Dark'...

"Serena, Rose, Erebus, Gnarl... what do you think?" I ask after a moment, I have advisors for a reason.

"She is mostly correct, My King. Light will not serve Dark, they would rebel and scheme eternally until you were forced to exterminate or break them, and broken slaves are not as useful as willing ones. Still, there are other Light figures who could take the same role she just happens to be the most prominent in this world." Erebus says easily.

"Having a Light worm around would be annoying, but at least she's nice to look at... and she can help manipulate the other stupid morons calling themselves 'light'." Gnarl chuckles, not taking his eyes off Fay's ass. Pervy little guy, he can look all he likes, as long as he isn't touching. I'm possessive, but I'm not that possessive, it's like owning a brilliant piece of art or a expensive sports car, I don't care if people stare in envy as long as they keep there grubby mitts to themselves.

"We have the food to feed the people she brought with her, for a few months at least, after that it'll be up to whether the Halflings can live up to their end of the bargain... we have little room for 300 elves however, and from the looks of them, they'll be little use for you." Rose explains, nice to have someone who takes care of the logistical side of things...

"She's not as essential as she thinks, you would rule the so-called 'Light' either way, but perhaps she can speed things up slightly... if nothing else she can at least serve as a bed warmer." Serena says coldly, she has a grudge against her own kind amusingly enough. Racist against her own race, turns out she has a real grudge against being used as a sacrifice for me.

Choose your path!

[Destruction]

Kill Fay and the Elves

Fay Dies, Ghost Fay becomes your Mistress

The Mother Goddess fades from this world

Light Races will be much harder to control

[Domination]

Use Evil Presence on Fay, and the Elves

Fay becomes Dark Fay, Dark Fay becomes your Mistress

The Mother Goddess is ?

Light Races will be harder to control

[Grey Lord]

Take Fay and the Elves into your Empire

Fay becomes your Mistress

The Mother Goddess is ?

Light Races will be more likely to join your Empire

So I get Fay either way? Grey Lord seems to be the way to go, easier control over Light, Fay joins, and all I have to do is take care of some elves...

The Mother Goddess is a worrisome one, I don't know if that's positive or negative after all. She should be thankful of course, but if I know one thing about Gods it's that they are all assholes. Literally every Mythology has the Gods being dicks, but that being said... I have True Longinus, I haven't used it yet since I can't help but think it'll draw attention to me, even without me being in DxD, so I've been holding off until I find a way to suppress my magical presence, but if it comes to a fight with a God I'll use it, and give them a taste of a God-Killing weapon. After that the only question is 'Can I eat the soul of a God?'.

Grey Lord it is...

Lovely, more Gold I need to spend.

Suck it up, Kuro. Spend money to make money, business 101.

"I can handle the buildings easily enough, it's no problem for me... very well Fay, I accept." I say with a sigh. "Give me a moment..." I say closing my eyes as I enter the domain mode.

First things first, the mountains? Really not working for me, using Summon Land I change the surrounding mountains to a Forest Biome, it only costs Mana so I don't mind making the forest both large and incredibly thick, to interfere with invading forces.

With a pause I destroy the Graveyard and Gravediggers, they're in the way. I should have made them in Spree, but it's too late now.

The terrain flattens considerably as I work my magic, the Mountains separating us from the Empire stay, it's a large mountain-range and my tower is on the opposite side of it to the Empire anyway, but the Mountain I am on lowers till it is more of a large hill than a mountain, less defensive but I have a plan already.

I have [Forest], [Hills], [Canyon], [Wetland], [River], [Wasteland] and [Necrovalley (Unique)] available at the moment, not the Grassland I would have preferred but out of the choices Forests are the best option, Canyons don't make good city bases, neither do wastelands...

The Forests I make are massive, stretching miles in every direction except towards the mountain-range, My Tower is tucked in between two mountains, and now the only non-mountainous path to it is a seemingly endless forest, either you scale a frozen mountain range, which is suicide if you don't have a powerful Fairy Mage helping protect you from the cold, or you go through a massive forest... which no army can do quickly.

I de-summon all my undead that were lurking in the mountain range temporarily, they're in the way. The Dragon stays, though I send it into the mountains closer to the Empires side, it can watch for any pursuers chasing after Fay.

Elven Tree-Houses hold 10 people in each... and I have roughly 300 Elves and Fairies to house. 30 Tree-Houses, each one 250 Gold... 7500 Gold. I could buy them the cheaper Houses but these ones increase happiness and loyalty in Elven forces, and I like loyal subjects.

Ergh...

I'm already getting a stream of gold from Jewel as she goes back to raiding, what she's raiding I have no fucking clue since she hasn't left the desert but it's making money, I let her keep one-third of the gold herself as a incentive, she'll work harder if there's something in it for her, her greed will demand it after all.

Fuck it, I can get more gold and even with my Greed railing against my choice I buy the houses, a fair distance from the Tower itself. It's basically Lothlórien 2.0, or perhaps 0.1 since it's far smaller.

[Elven Tree-House]

250 Gold Cost

Can house 10 population, increases happiness in Elven and Elf-Like residents.

Using Summon Land again I make a River, having it cut through the forest as I get a note that bridges and Fishermans Huts are now available. The large river goes in a large half-circle as it comes from the mountains and heads into the forest, returning to the mountains miles later, now any attackers will need to cross the massive river as well, the tree-houses are on the same side as the tower so my (developing) city is safe as well. Though it is on the very edge of the river, since if games taught me anything it is that you need a source of water to not die.

Summon Lands is powerful, the forest and river is already inhabited by wild animals, I can't control them of course but they're there, which means they're a source of food for the elves who can feed themselves.

Unless they're vegan elves? I've seen them exist in fiction... In which case they can eat weeds or something, I don't care that much about them.

Making a forest path to the Tower for convenience I sigh, it's not perfect since it's a easy path fro invaders, but it's a small dirt path so no army could travel along it easily. They'd have to be in single file, and I'd know they were coming from a long way away.

Going all out I buy them a Temple, choosing Mother Goddess as the deity... I want her to be happy with me, and 800 Gold is nothing in the long run.

[Temple]

800 Gold Cost

Allows worshippers to pray to the God or Pantheon it is dedicated to, has different effects depending on the chosen god.

And a Hospital, in this setting it's really more of a Healers station, but I guess hospital works as well.

[Hospital (Fantasy)]

1500 Gold Cost

Allows the recruitment of Healers, will heal sick and injured population in the Domain

[Healers] – 500 Gold (max 10 per Hospital)

Will heal the sick and wounded, as well as help with childbirth and other healing tasks

Of course the Healers come separate... 5 will do, I want my first custom city to be good, but I also really don't like spending money... for now they can have a Elven Barracks and Elven Archery Range and that's it.

[Elven Barracks]

1000 Gold Cost

Allows the recruitment of Elven Swordsmen and Elven Spearmen

[Elven Swordsman] – 150 Gold (max 50 troops per Elven Barracks)

[Elven Spearman] – 250 Gold (max 50 troops per Elven Barracks)

[Elven Archery Range]

1000 Gold Cost

Allows the recruitment of Elven Archers and Elven Rangers

[Elven Archers] – 150 Gold (max 50 troops per Elven Archery Range)

[Elven Rangers] – 250 Gold (max 50 troops per Elven Archery Range)

...20 Archer, 10 Rangers, 20 Swordsmen and 10 Spearmen. 11K gold. That's enough spending for now, I hate it I really do, but I can't risk having my people be attacked and destroyed, it'd be a bad investment if I did. Once this place is set up, it'll earn gold for me and pay itself off... eventually. Think of the long-term Kuro.

Oddly enough my Conqueror side is pleased by the growing city, enough even to offset the hurt greed gnawing at my insides at my suddenly depleted gold stores, I still have over 20k... barely, enough to repair Castle Spree when I have someone to rule it in my name.

It's fine, it's fine. It doesn't bother me, it doesn't bother me... it bothers me, it bothers me a lot.

I'll get the gold back, it's all just fine. Once I take Goldo for everything he owns it'll all be just fine. Even the Hand of Midas is little use here, it sounds great until you consider it. It turns something into gold three times a day, but I need coins to buy this stuff, and I have nowhere to sell solid gold and no way of making it into Gold Coins, so it's essentially useless until I have a way of making coins.

Opening my eyes I stare at Fay, my annoyance showing.

"I have created accommodations for your people, lead them along the Forest path outside the tower and you will find it, get them settled in and then return back here." I say through gritted teeth.

"My Lord... there was no forest outside?" she asks hesitantly.

"Correct, there was not, and now there is. I have built houses for your people, now get them off my front lawn." I say coldly. "I used a considerable amount of resources to get your people set up... do not make me regret it." I say, barely listening to her thanks and promises as she is lead away.

Going back in domain mode I move my inventory and treasury except for a few thousand coins and some jewels down to the Underground Domain that I haven't been using, it has a treasury as well after all, and re-summon all my undead down there to defend it, I don't think the elves will try and rob me but if they do I won't make it easy.

The only way down is either through my Tower Gate, or by digging miles down beneath my tower, which I'd see, it's an extra layer of protection between my treasure and the rest of the world.

If this is what spending feels like I really don't want to know what being robbed would feel like, I can feel a burning rage building at the mere thought of someone taking what is rightfully mine, as both Conqueror and Greed despise the mere thought.

Making a Tower Gate right in the centre of the Halfling Village I place a couple of farms down, they can take care of the rest.

"Holly. I have made a portal in the middle of your village, along with some more farms, you will inform your people of our agreement and return tonight, you live here now." I say to her sending her away as well.

I have a deep need to kill something, some gratuitous violence should take my mind away from my depleted treasury.

Grinding time again, maybe experience and Gacha items will take away the anger. Telling Serena to tell Akeno to visit me with Ghost Milf tonight I just into a dungeon to blow off some steam.

1000 WIS Perk Added

[Divine Wisdom]

WIS Checks will always pass.

Party EXP gained doubled.

MP Regen is Doubled

Skill rewarded for 1000 WIS and INT

[Multi-Form]

Allows the user to split their body into multiple bodies (1 extra for every 1000 INT and WIS) and control them both simultaneously.

Extra bodies will only have 35% of the stats of the original.

If the 'True' form is killed the full power will head to the second form.

I didn't spend too long, I want to head to Heaven's Peak today after all. So I just got ten levels in both Overlord and Scribe... as it turns out, wanton slaughter of demons is good stress relief.

The WIS perk is great of course, but the true prize was the skill. As I stare at myself I nod in approval, both bodies nodding at the same time.

I experiment controlling them both at once, doing two different actions with each body, and I find it entirely too easy.

The Second Weaker body will remain in my Tower, handling smaller things while the True form heads out, now I essentially have another layer of defence, if my True Form is killed I return to the second, at full strength.

Essentially, to kill me truly you have to first kill all my forms, and then my Phylactery before I can reform. As my WIS and INT grow I'll gain more and more, and I can scatter them throughout the Multiverse, making it all but impossible to destroy me fully... still better to be cautious, everyone who has ever said 'I am invincible!' has ended up dead almost immediately.

I guide the second form as it leaves, it'll be stationed in the Throne Room for now, ready to react the moment anything happens.

I got six new gacha items as well, some interesting stuff to be honest

Summon Unlock Card – Tytannial, Princess of Camellias (8 Star) Unique

Adds [Tytannial, Princess of Camellias] to Grow Plant

Missing Pre-Requisite Skill

Summon Unlock Card – Ghostrick Alucard (3 Star) Unique

Adds [Ghostrick Alucard] to Summon Spirit

Summon Unlock Card – Performapal Trump Witch (1 Star) Unique

Adds [Performapal Trump Witch] to Summon Follower (Mage)

Two I can use, and one I'll no doubt need Druid for, Tytannial is a woman growing out of a flower, she has nature magic. Performapal Trump Witch is another buffer, and Alucard is a vampire ghost thing.

Summon Unlock Card – Illyasviel von Einzbern (5* Caster)

Adds [Illyasviel von Einzbern (5* Caster)] to Summon Servant

Loli Magical Girl Get. Useful to have, but I have other Fate ones to summon that I care more about.

Item: Libra Eclipse Key (Fairy Tail)

Would be great... if I had the skills to use it. It's practically a pretty trinket to me without the magic to actually use it.

Companion Gem: Celestine Lucross (Kuroinu)

Now this, this is... odd. Very odd.

Kuroinu is a hentai, and Celestine, Celestine is a Goddess, or at least a reincarnation of one, who gets beaten and defiled by mortals. In the source material she just gets beaten without putting up any fight and then raped until she breaks, but if she's divine then I really don't think summoning her is the smartest idea...

Of course as I think that the gem decides that I don't get a choice in the matter as I shatters into light making me frown in annoyance and slight panic.

My first thought is that Hentai worlds are even dumber than Ecchi worlds, her breasts are on par with Yasakas, and she's wearing even less... the white clothe exposes so much of her cleavage and privates it might as well not be there, the only thing stopping me from having a clear view of her pussy is a thin black piece of cloth hanging down, as she rises it ways revealing her pristine pussy for a moment before it settle back in place.

Her blonde hair almost touches the floor even when she rises to her full height, I can see her long elven ears poking out of the side of her hair as her deep green eyes locked onto me.

My second thought is how the fuck did she ever lose?! Champion Level 85, stronger than Raynare, almost Satan level strong. Hentai logic is bullshit, she should have stomped the assholes who attacked all the Kuroinu girls in seconds. Plus her Race is Divine High Elf, which must have better stats than most, it has the word Divine in it.

Which brings me to my next point... There's a goddess, who may or may not have been raped recently, in my bedroom and Me? I'm laid on my bed, naked. With an erection.

Look, I wasn't expecting this to happen, I was going to call for Serena in a moment, this is all quite unexpected. Also if she didn't want people to get hard over her, maybe try actually wearing clothes, this is not even remotely my fault.

As I get ready to jump into a ID and hide I pause as she bows deeply, her barely restrained breasts bouncing as she does, one of them outright escaping the... insufficient prison as she rises not covering the exposed breast as it hangs proudly, my eyes drawn to it as my dick jumps in excitement.

"My King... I have come to beg for your assistance." she says immediately making me pause.

...What?

I don't get it.

"...Why would a goddess need my assistance?" I ask after a moment, I consider getting up and dressed, but she's not mentioning it so I won't either.

"Because my world is doomed at the hands of a group of depraved men, a fact you already know, do you not?" she asks making me frown, she has a point. She loses despite her strength. "I have seen the future of my world and my own fate, I cannot save my people or myself despite my power..." she said sadly making me frown, but how? I can't imagine her losing or their being someone stronger than her in her world, it's not like the Hentai gave many details on how she lost... or it did and I just wasn't paying attention.

"So you've come to me to save it for you?" I say sitting on the edge of my bed.

"No, I've come to ask you to conquer it yourself." she says quickly making me freeze quickly. "You are a conqueror are you not? My world will be safer beneath you, I have failed but you will not, even if Vult is slain this has proven that my world needs a true defender, and that isn't me or the Princess Knights, not any more." she explains... I can see the logic, I wouldn't let a world I ruled fall to depravity like that, it's just inefficient. But if they can beat her, then what chance do I have?

"You need not worry, your deity has told me that you will not be going there for a long time... you will be far stronger than me when it is time." she says kindly, I panic thinking she is reading my mind, but I guess the worry was shown on my face. "You have nothing to lose My King, and much to gain." she says calmly approaching me as she places an incredibly soft hand on my cheek.

"Why do you call me that?" I ask after a moment, only Erebus calls me 'My King'.

"Because that's what you are. You will rule my world, and me along with it, the Seven Princess Knights and the Dark Elf Queen and her servant will be yours." she promises as I sigh slightly.

"And all I have to do is conquer a world for it? I'll do it, naturally." I say, realistically what choice do I have, if Kuroinu is one of the future worlds I'll end up there eventually either way, might as well get something out of it.

The moment I say so her face breaks into a beaming smile as she leans down and kisses me deeply, her tongue sneaking into my mouth.

Quest Added

[Downfall of Castle and Cuntry]

Objective: Conquer the world of Kuroinu and slay Vult and his men

Reward: ?, ?

"Thank you, My King. You will not regret this decision, I swear it." she says happily.

"I'm sure I won't..." I say rising from the bed. "I have work to do, give me a moment to get dressed and I will show to your new room..." I say re-equipping my clothes, I'll res Shuri now, and then I'm finding someone to fuck, Celestine is unnaturally good looking, and basically naked, I'm really fucking horny.

"You do not need me to... assist you?" she asks hesitantly as I pause, I want her too, but I feel like it would be a bad choice at the moment, she asked me to help because she believes me better than Vult, time to prove her faith wasn't misplaced.

"No, lets at least get to know one another first, besides I have a Harem for that." I say as I stretch slightly.

+11 Affection with Celestine Lucross [36/100] for not being demanding.

One third of the way already? And her obedience is at 70 already...

"Thank you, My King. Despite my would-be fate I am still... virginal , I came to this place before my assault, you will be my first... and my only." she admits as I get up giving her a smile as she recovers her still exposed breast... wait did she do that on purpose to lure me in?

Sending my second form on a assignment I show Celestine to a new room, the Tower has rearranged itself again, adding a floor just for Harem members, I imagine some of them are going to be confused that their bedroom changed locations while they were still inside it.

While I do so, my second form takes a trip back to DxD, I found out where Shuri's ashes are from Akeno, and my second body is off to dig them up, I need at least a bit of the body to bring her back, and some ashes will suffice.

To be honest I could bring her back with a single bone or a severed finger, as long as I have something of the corpse.

Leaving Celestine to settle in I head into Akeno's room, getting her attention as she quickly rises from the bed, hope in her eyes. I do find it mildly funny that the Game sorted the bedrooms by original World, all the DxD girls are in one wing, the Overlord girls in another.

"Is it time?!" she says quickly as Shuri floats around the room.

"Almost, I've sent myself back to your world to grab Shuris Ashe's, once I return I can bring her back. Come on, we'll do it in my room." I say leaving, hearing her rush to follow me.

I can here her muttering in confusion as she looks around the different hallway from the one she was in moments ago, this place changes more than Hogwarts, all they get is some moving staircases, my tower rearranges itself.

It doesn't take long for me to return, I summoned Number 26: Octobypass the Dimensional Pathway to work as a method of transport, so once I got to DxD I just immediately teleported to the graveyard, and it night anyway so I didn't have too much trouble looting the grave.

- Baraqiel -

Arriving at the graveyard he clenched his fist tightly, he was too late... again.

The ward he left told him the grave was being disturbed but he was in the middle of a meeting over Vali's death... and he knew better than to test Azazel by leaving midway, he was in mourning over his adopted sons death, even if he was hopeful that the Necromancer could resurrect him.

By the time he got there the grave was open, and the urn missing from it, whoever did this didn't waste time, they had vanished with only a slight trace of teleportation magic.

He couldn't keep her alive, and he couldn't even keep her grave undisturbed.

Was it any wonder his daughter couldn't stand him?

- Kuro -

Watching Akeno's face as my second form showed up holding the urn was fun, switching which form I'm using as my main one the 'True Form' leaves, he's heading to Heavens Peak to start working there, while the 'Weaker Form' remains behind.

William has lived long enough after all...

"What was that? Why are you in two places?" Akeno asks looking from the door I left through to me repeatedly.

"Multi-Form. I'm too busy to only have one body, sometimes you need to be in two places at once." I say with a shrug as I casually open the urn, pouring the ashes on the floor before I toss the urn off to the side.

"Let's get this over with, 'True Resurrection'." I say feeling one of my souls in the tower get destroyed to power the spell, Ehh I have 99 more and I can fill it back up easily enough.

It's even pretty cool to watch the Ashes reform into a body, a completely naked body at that as her soul is dragged back into it, causing her to open her eyes widely as she takes a deep breath, the first in along long long time.

I immediately find a problem with my plan of getting laid, Akeno bursts into tears as she leaps at her mother, and that just isn't sexy crying, there's runny noses and puffed up eyes.

"I'll leave you two to this, I hate dealing with crying people." I say leaving the room quickly, my Remorseless Trait makes me ill-suited for dealing with emotional people, I can understand why there're feeling emotional on a logical level but I can't really emphasise properly.

...Of course.

It's more useful than just getting her holy lightning since I have the Fallen Race anyway.

Sending a spirit looking around I frown, everyone is busy. Every girl who I could fuck, is doing something.

Fay and Holly aren't back yet, Rose, Mata and Serena are teaching the Maids, Sona is having a meeting with her peerage and Serafall's there, looks like Sera is teaching Sona how to use their family magic. Rias is training with Kiba and Gasper. Yasaka is with Kunou, Himawari is training with Shisui and Cu. Celestine and Kushina aren't mine, not yet. Inferna is in the Arena with Hakon getting me more money, and that's too important to pull her away from.

I like sex, but I like money as well.

Clarrisa and the Amazoness Princess are a choice but I'm not in the mood to deal with unwilling girls at the moment.

Raynare's a possibility of course, and I doubt my tower will get attacked in the next few hours after all. And the Gravekeeper's Shaman is as well, or I could summon a new one.

As I head downstairs I get interrupted as a voice calls out to me.

"K-Kuro? I was wondering if I could speak to you in private?" Kushina asks hesitantly as I glance at her in confusion.

"Sure, I'd offer my room but it's... occupied at the moment." I say quickly as she takes me by the hand leading me to her room, it looks like it would fit in Konoha easily with the more oriental appearance when compared to the rest of the tower. There's a framed picture of her and Minato on the night-stand, along with a picture of Naruto around Academy age, and one of the Hokage Monument.

She gets me to sit down on a chair and paces a bit before she stops in front of me. Looking her over I frown slightly, something seems... off. Her outfit is wrong for a start, instead of her usual long dress she's wearing a new one, that stops just above her knees. leaving her long legs exposed, it's sleeveless as well and it has a bit of cleavage, there's nothing lewd about it... it covers everything and isn't overly slutty but she usually wears much more so it gets my attention.

"I owe you... a lot. My granddaughter would be dead if it wasn't for you, I would be dead... and I want to start making it up to you, I know you said I just had to keep my skills up just in case any Bijuu-like things showed up but I owe you more than that..." she says approaching me slowly, clear hesitance in her movements.

She doesn't look me in the face as she reaches back, undoing her dress as she lets it drop, revealing a lacy set of deep green underwear. Even with her looking away I can see both her shame and guilt as she lowers herself to her knees.

"Please, don't say anything..." she says undoing her bra as she drops it making her breasts bounce slightly, the nipples starting to, harden beneath my gaze. Her hands come to my belt shakily as she undoes it clumsily, pulling my trousers down, my boxers joining them. "This is just a thank you, nothing more..." she says quietly, more to herself than to me as she takes it into her hand, stroking it gently.

Casting Heighten Libido and Sensitivity I smirk as her strokes become just a bit more rapid, she keeps her gaze away from my shaft as she does it, looking away at one of the walls as she moves her and up and down, her breasts bouncing from the movement.

Casting Erotic Dreams again just so I don't forget later, I dismiss the notification that Erotic Dreams has become Eternal Erotic Dreams, no longer wearing off after a single night unless I want it to.

Despite her growing arousal she is practically radiating guilt as she jerks me off, I can't help but shake the feeling that this wasn't her idea...

Himawari works fast.

- Himawari -

Excusing herself from the others she used her invisibility Jutsu heading up to her grandmothers room, using her phasing Jutsu to move through the closed door without alerting the inhabitants. Her observation Jutsu had alerted her of what was happening.

Even her sensei couldn't detect her, at least not this younger version. But then, they were three Jutsus taught to her by her Sensei so that wasn't surprising, who could fool him, but himself?

She was her beloved masters pet assassin, and no one in Konoha even knew she was a stealth specialist, they all thought she was a Taijutsu specialist, which means when people in locked rooms were found dead she wouldn't ever be suspected.

A trick she'd learnt from Kuro in the first place, have one specialisation that everyone knows, while your true talents are something entirely different.

Konoha never did solve the Phantom Serial Killer case, for a village of Ninjas they were kind of stupid at times, it was a shame that Shikamaru was too clever, she wouldn't have had to kill him if he was dumber.

At least Kuro was around to comfort the poor grieving Temari. Another thing she'd learnt from him... Grief made people stupid, and easily manipulatable.

When Kuro 'caught the killer', he was celebrated as a hero and had the gratitude of countless people, Temari was so thankful to have her husbands killer face justice that she was practically putty in his hands.

Much like Kushina was in hers... kneeling next to her grandmother she watched in amusement as neither noticed her, she couldn't beat even the younger Kuro, but it was fun to finally sneak up on him. She'd never managed before, he was too good at sensing people and always turned the tables on her.

One minute she'd be trying to sneak up on him, the next she'd be face down, ass up with him railing her right there in the open as they both hid under his Jutsu. And if she ever did catch him, it was always a clone. Every. Single. Time.

Watching her grandmother jerk off Kuro she frowned, that technique was down-right amateurish, it was almost embarrassing to watch. She did better on her second hand-job, Kuro taught her well after all... clearly her grandfather was either dumb or soft to let Kushina stay so untalented.

Even Sakura was better than this, and Sakura was a dead fish in bed. Thank Kami that Sarada didn't take after either of her parents.

If it wasn't for the fact that it'd ruin the manipulation on Kushina she'd drop her Jutsu and do it herself, she'd missed that big dick after all, toys just didn't do it after experiencing Kuro, and she'd never let another man touch her.

The last man to ask her out mysteriously died after he fell down the stairs, twice. She was taken, if they couldn't tell that then she was doing the village a favour by getting them out of the gene pool.

She started counting, she wanted to keep track of how long it took Kushina to make Kuro cum, by the time she got to ten minutes she had a deep scowl on her face. When Kuro finally came at a pathetic nineteen minutes she scowled at Kushina trying to dodge the cum as it splattered across her fat tits and dumb face.

Her grandmother was many things, impressive wasn't one of them.

Still... she had a Jutsu for this.

Moving away she hid herself in the corner, using a stolen version of the Yamanaka Clans Jutsu to send her mind forwards into Kushina, another Kuro special... he was good at recreating and improving Clan Jutsus.

She wasn't in the drivers seat, that would be too obvious. But she was in her grandmothers subconscious, whispering into her mind. When used right, she could drive happy civilians to murder and make loyal Shinobi to commit treason, and they always thought it was their own ideas.

Kuro wasn't massively fond of mind-control on his girls, it was something he used but not very often, but what he didn't know wouldn't hurt him.

He'd been the one who taught her that it was fine to lie as long as you didn't get caught, she had his best interests in mind after all, she was just speeding things up.

Making Kushina look at the still hard shaft she put in the thought that Kushina hadn't done enough, her village was counting on her to get Kuro's help after all, he had a harem already, a hand-job was nothing to him...

Listening to Kushina's inner thoughts she rolled her metaphorical eyes as she heard her panicking over her 'affair' and 'betrayal', moving again she reminded Kushina that Minato would understand, she was doing this for their son and village after all, it would be a bigger betrayal to not do this, to risk it all due to her prudishness.

Smirking as she felt her head move forwards, she felt what Kushina felt, she was in Kushina's body after all, so when Kushina opened her mouth reluctantly she did the same in Kushina's mind, tasting the delicious shaft as it entered her mouth.

You want this, you enjoy this, use whatever excuse you want, but you wanted to do this from the moment you saw him...

At this point corrupting married woman was basically second nature for her, and as Kushina's became more and more enthusiastic in her blowjob she grinned, another one bites the dust.

She wasn't sure if Kuro had his addictive seed spell yet, but she'd make sure Kushina craved it either way, one more Uzumaki Slut to serve beneath him.

Life was good.

- Kuro (True Form) -

Heading past the camp I smirk, once again undead enemies are pointless, the more undead that attack the larger my horde grows in strength.

Plus 85 Minions, anything in my path that I can't control will get swarmed by the horde, 45 Browns, 20 Reds and Greens, I have the power to deal with just about anything in my way.

As I move further along I find one of my targets.

"Hmmm, a succubus! Poor misunderstood young ladies, they just want a little bit of love... a little bit of death... just like the rest of us! " Gnarl says making me smirk.

She dives at us, mind-controlling a single minion, but when they're is 84 more it really doesn't help as she's pounced on by a horde of bloodthirsty browns as they claw and gnaw at her, she tries to fly off, realising her mistake, but they weigh her down as the greens pounce on her pulling her back down to earth.

Turning in desperation, her former pride vanished she attempts to take control of me, getting nothing more than a bored look as a result.

"WAIT!" she shouts as I go to incinerate her making me pause, pulling the minions back slightly, still ready to finish her at any moment.

"And why would I do that?" I ask in amusement.

"Because I don't want to die?" she replied with a confused frown.

"...but I want to kill you?" I reply with a equally confused look.

"Can you just... not? Please?" she asks with puppy-dog eyes.

"...but I want to? You started it." I say with a frown. I don't think this demon is particularly smart.

"Sorry! I was just hungry, and you have lots of magic, so I thought I could take some? It's not like you need it all." she says with a shrug.

"Why would I let you have my magic? I'm kinda using it. Why did you attack my minions?"

"Well it would come back, and I just wanted to get them out of the way, they're kinda ugly and they're kinda turning me off so I thought it'd be better to kill them so we could have fun?" she says looking at me as if I'm the one being stupid.

"...Wouldn't 'having fun' with a succubus kill me?"

"No silly, that's only if the persons weak and magic-less, we feed on magic, and if there isn't any magic we feed on life-force, you have a lot of magic, way more than I could ever eat, you'd be fine!" she ensures...

Can I really call myself a man if I don't fuck a Succubus?

Using my new scribe skill I make a contract, as she watches in confusion.

The terms are simple, she obeys me and doesn't betray me, and in exchange I spare her. It's an unfair contract in my favour and it's a long one, filled with legal text I can barely understand myself, but the skill gives me the important parts.

If she breaks the contract, she is destroyed. That's the penalty for breaking it, I can make contracts with lesser penalties, but why bother? She's either accepting, or dying. She is an enemy after all.

"Sign this and I'll forgive you." I say passing her a quill the skill made.

To my great lack of surprise she immediately writes her name where I pointed to without even reading the document, making the contract flash golden.

"What was that?" she asks in confusion.

"You just signed a magical contract to serve me and not betray me in exchange for your life." I say making her jaw drop as she stares at me in shock.

"You... Sneaky Demon! You can't trick a demon into a demons contract!" she says with a pout.

"...you could have read it first." I point out.

"...That would have been boring, very well! As a sign of respect for your cunning I will serve you! As long as you feed me!" she says... she doesn't have a choice? That's the whole point of the contract. "I am Maelys, Master... who are you again?" she asks as I sigh.

"Kuro, Overlord and Ruler of this land." I say taking a deep breath.

"Ruler? Cool. You should go see the Succubus Queen, she likes Rulers." Maelys says happily.

"...I'll get right on that."

"Nice... Sooooo, wanna fuck? The gremlin things can watch if you really want..."

"Please stop talking."

- Bonus Scene – Rose -

Finishing her lesson with a smile she hummed to herself, Kuro had actually asked her for advise, admittedly he also asked Serena, Gnarl and the big intimidating one, but he'd still asked her.

And even better he listened, and seemed to appreciate her advise. She'd found her niche as the logistics girl, none of the others could handle numbers like she could, and she hadn't even revealed her spy network yet...

She needed to expand that anyway, both to the Halflings and the Elves. Mata would be a great help with that... she'd finally realised that Mata was absolutely a spy, and a very good one at that, clearly she'd been spied on before, she didn't mind it was logical for Kuro to keep an eye on her after her fathers death. The fact that Mata wasn't hiding what she was any more meant she wasn't being suspected any more, and Mata was helping her now.

Which meant Kuro almost certainly knew that she was building him a Spy Network and was helping her in the background, he was an impressive leader.

Soon she'd have spies in Spree, Heaven's Peak, the Halfling Village, the Elven Village and the Raider Camp, all reporting to her. And then, she'd move on to infiltrating the Empire itself, they wouldn't be able to sneeze in Kuro's direction without her hearing about it.

Beat that Velvet, you dumb gold-digging slut.

- Daily life in the Multiverse – Sparring Session -

This was some bullshit.

Striking his opponent in the heart with his spear again he watched as the man just looked down at his pierced chest with a bored look.

"...If it didn't work the last four times, why did you think it would this time?" Shisui said with a sigh before Cu was knocked back suddenly, this guy was far too fast...

He was glad he'd never had to face this guy in a real war, he'd definitely be an Assassin. He was stupidly fast, Cu could barely track the man as he seemingly teleported around, and he could read Cu's every move.

Of course he usually read the move, and then decided to let it hit him so he could land a hit of his own... and Cu couldn't just infinitely heal from any wound, the countless cuts were starting to add up.

And that was without the fireballs the quick little bastard kept hitting him with.

"I'd advise giving up, even if you fully destroy my body I'll just keep coming back, being undead has its advantages." Shisui said calmly as Cu got back up.

Spinning his spear around he got in position again, a grin on his face.

He was a warrior, like something like an immortal fighter would be enough to scare him off, it just meant he could fight to his hearts content!

"Your heart... is Mine! Gáe Bolg!" he shouted, using his Noble Phantasm as he rushed forwards, his spear finding its mark as he stabbed Shisui through the heart again.

"...You aren't my type. Can we please stop this now?" Shisui said with a sigh as he looked down at his pierced heart with a sigh.

And that makes five destroyed hearts... it couldn't kill him, but it still fucking hurt!
