Death, Death & Death

In the research lab in Sparda, Dante and Solo are standing in front of a tree with red leafs and tear shaped large brown coloured fruits and another tree with silver grey leafs and round golf ball sized silver fruits

Solo looked at his tablet looking at the Data "this is a venison meat tree, and this is a stainless steel metal tree… no progress on crystal trees yet" He sighed concluding his report

"Dante looked towards the echo of Orochimaru. The echoes in general are more lifelike now that Dante broke through from Life law master to King; the problem is that this was not true godhood, so the echoes were not 'alive'… yet, but their skills are all there, and so is Orochimaru's research skills.

"Try getting crystal release users to help, also find a mage specialised in nature magic to help as well" Dante started walking towards another part of the research area in the castle

"I want a three year plan to be ready within a week" he spoke seriously "I want Inoki to be the main driving force of the world's economy, Solo" Dante stopped abruptly and turned to Solo "we are going to take over the Internet, Solomon" Dante said with uncharacteristic seriousness "I will be THE meme lord, and nothing is going to stop me" Dante said raising his fist like a villain

Solo, of course, heard this speech several times already "yes, yes my dank memes Lord" Solo did a flourish full bow "may this humble normi interest you with looking at the progress made by the PB department"

Dante straitened his back and raised his head like a snob "be honoured. This lord accepts your service" he said with an over the top 'young master' tone

Solo played along bowing his head like an ass-licking servant "of course, of course, right this way esteemed lord, hehehe" he said in a subservient annoying tone

Dante humphed and walked like a snob from one of those Wuxia novels "this one approves"

And so they continued the act for the rest of the day simply because they enjoyed the confused looks everyone had on their faces as they watched them. It made the tour less boring for the pair, and that was a plus

It has been a few years since the gathering where Azazel stepped down from being the leader of Grigori, and Khaos brigade lost all its power. Dante used this time to improve himself and his realm, Sparda. His girls are happy, he is happy and his people are happy, and extremely loyal to him.

In Sparda, the main currency is credits. A small monster's core from the first floor of the dungeon, can get you 20 credits, just enough for one meal. The cores are drained for energy and then returned to the dungeon to be repurposed and money is given to the dungeon diver based on the core's power.

The energy gathered by the core is used to power Sparda City Island and all other Islands. Where does the Dungeon gain its energy you ask?

Ambient energy

Sparda is designed to generate the energy that is available in the visited worlds like a mudaFuka. This saturates the world in energy ,that is simply wasted, so Dante decided to kill several birds with one Dungeon.

The dungeon generates the energy to power the world, using wasted energy and in the meantime, trains my people to give me stronger, healthier and more long living individuals.

All children are to join the academy above the dungeon at six; at ten they would choose chakra manipulation or DxD style Magic; at 15 they would level up and enter the dungeon for the first time and at 16 they would graduate to pursue whatever they want to.

It took years, but Dante finally made it so the world is self-sustained. Now he can have as much fun as he wants... if his ladies weren't so busy themselves 'Sigh, I need more lovelies' he thought as he hugged loli Ophis like a plushie.

Dante and Ophis were currently having a Disney movies marathon, eating snacks and overall relaxing, before the next great adventure [Hey Dante, we got a call from three goddesses this time] Solo mentally spoke to Dante

Dante raised an eyebrow at that 'I'll see it in the conference room'

---

Dante was now in the room looking at three ladies in the three screens in front of him, the goddesses were staring back at him with equal intrigue "well hello there" greeted the black haired punk style wearing goddess in a friendly manner "are you the Godling everyone is talking about?"

This caught Dante by surprise "and what do they say, when they talk about me?" He asked with a raised brow

"Only good things I promise" Said the scantily dressed goddess with the white hair and white skin "but that is not why we are here, we have a favour to ask of you"

The third goddess simply nodded. She looked pale with what seems to be markings that are seen in day of the dead celebrations and was wearing a dark purple cowl and tight dress.

"The goddesses of death, wish for something from me? This I have to hear" Dante said leaning forward

"It is not really surprising, as you are the first traveling God, in thousands of years" the white haired goddess explained "and what I want from you is simple. I want the death stick" she concluded

The punk goth looking goddess piped in "I want the stone"

And the final goddess spoke "I want the cloak"

Dante looked at the three goddesses, they are beautiful in their own way, and his mastery over the law of emotion he can feel theirs…

He turned to the first one, the one asking for the death stick. She is lady death, but she wasn't always that. She was once hope daughter of the local warlord noble who turned out to be Lucifer.

She was named devil spawn and cast after him into hell. She was tortured for long time, until finally he cast her out of his castle to fend for herself.

It took her a long time, and the help of her mentor Cremator, but she finally amassed an army and was finally able to kill her father. In his death he cursed her to forever be in hell, as long as an ally of his walks hell.

It took her hundreds of years but she did it, she was free. Free from hell, but not from her heritage, and so lady death, became the goddess lady death, the ruler of hell and the lonely queen, as she cannot go where other death gods exist, for it might disrupt the balance of the world.

Dante then looked to the second goddess. She is probably the most powerful of the trio, and the friendliest. She is one of seven siblings called the endless, and so, she is death of the endless.

She is the first and she will be the last, she is the closest a god can be to a God. She is bound by no rules and she cares only for her siblings. The problem is that unlike other gods, including her siblings, her purpose, her power does not bind her, and as such her drive does not elevate her sense of loneliness.

Her goldfish helps, but it's just not the same.

The third goddess is mistress Death. She is the representation and incarnation of death, in the marvel universe. Though she never interacted with the mortal realm, each of her images do. For every universe of the marvel verse, there is an image, an incarnation, of Death.

Her incarnations can interact with others, mortals, gods, beings of light and darkness and much more… but she cannot. It pains her to feel the emotions her images are feeling, but she cannot do so.

Dante looked at the three goddesses in contemplation 'fuck it, fortune favours the bold' he built up his courage and spoke "I will accept, but in return, for the items, you will live here in Sparda" he spoke in a clear tone, using words none can misunderstand

The three goddesses looked somewhat shocked. No gods want death so close to them, so why does he?

It was Lady death who spoke first "does your lust cloud your judgment?" she asked him as if talking to an idiot "or do you want to brag that you fucked death and lived to talk about it?" she spoke in a dangerous tone

Dante, to his credit, didn't panic 'thank you [gamer mind]' he simply raised his hand in a placating way and spoke calmly "calm yourself lady, all I asked was for you three top live in my realm. There will be no 'fucking' involved unless it's the right time with the right person" Dante facial expression then took a more serious form "you are one of the most physically attractive women I have seen, but not the most attractive, get over yourself" he finished

Lady death alongside the others gaped at his words. The Silence lasted for a moment before laughter broke. They all looked at the source, Death of the endless or Teleute as Ancient Greece named her was holding her sides as she laughed. Mistress death simply smiled, while looking at the blushing and pouting Lady death.

After a moment Teleute was able to get her barings back and spoke as she was whipping a tear from her eye "oh, this is priceless, I have a feeling it's going to be fun being around you, Godling"

Dante smiled "Call me Dante" he offered to which she nodded

He turned to M. Death who quickly responded with a nod. She would've been willing to actually pay him for the chance of interaction with others

Dante then turned to the no longer pouting but still blushing goddess. She fiddled for a second like a kid "I apologise for my actions. It seems I was among demons for too long and forgot not all are evil" she apologised while avoiding Dante's eyes

"Apology accepted" he nodded "and the offer?"

"I would like to accept it" she smiled apprehensively

"Deal" Dante smiled and stood up spreading his arms to his side "welcome to the family"
