[Another chapter...please friends leave me comments and power stones, I'm currently in my university's bathroom uploading this chapter with the excuse of calling a relative using a borrowed phone...so please comment and give me power stones!!]
"W-what is that?!" The king screamed completely paralyzed with fear as he saw the enormous asteroid slowly descending on the capital.
This was my trump card, a skill that Madara Uchiha himself had used to.
The Tengai Shinsei!
"W-what?!! What are you planning to do Rudeus Greyrat?!!, are you planning to kill us all?!" The king shouted at the top of his lungs, completely pale as he looked at the huge meteorite heading towards us.
Gravel beside him had fallen on his butt to the ground, his breathing had stopped and he had literally peed on himself as the shadow of the mega meteorite covered the entire city.
Eris, Ghislaine, Syphie and Eris however remained impassive.
They knew that he wouldn't throw a meteorite at them and they could only use the ring's teleportation ability to escape.
But that was not the case for Luke and Derrick who looked at the sky completely paralyzed with fear and wonder.
'I never thought magic could reach this point...' Derrick thought as he tried to calm himself.
Beside him, Luke watched as all his hopes were shattered.
Before I thought Rudeus was just a pretty strong person.
But now he knew that Rudeus had no equal in this world, hoping to try to defame him and take all the credit now seemed like a suicide mission.
So he just fell to the ground on his knees without knowing what to do.
Elmore, at her side, just watched this with absolute admiration for me and also feeling how her pussy was getting wet and contracting with her excitement.
"b-bastard!...If you drop that you'll die too!" Darius shouted in desperation to make me change my mind but I just laughed mockingly.
"Darius, do you really think I would be so stupid as to die by my own technique?!" I yelled at him looking into his eyes and he shuddered deeply.
"No, it's you who will die if you don't make a decision quickly!" I shouted, and so the meteorite began to fall rapidly toward the city.
The ground began to shake and the pressure in the air increased when it entered the atmosphere generating an enormous noise that sounded like death itself.
The king looked at all this and then looked at me.
His instincts told him not to give up the crown, but his sense of survival was too strong, and he knew that fighting Rudeus would only bring more death.
"A-and what is it you want?!" The king barely managed to stutter as he stared at me.
"What didn't I tell you? Let Ariel be the Queen and give me the king's crown," I said unimportantly.
The meteorite was already only a kilometer away from us.
Hundreds of buildings collapsed from the sheer pressure of the air.
Windows were shattered and people were running in terror, looking for any chance of survival.
The king gritted his teeth firmly as he looked at the enormous meteorite and then looked down at the ground in resignation.
"All right! The crown is yours!" Immediately as the king's words left his mouth, the meteorite stopped just a hundred meters away from the earth.
The tremors stopped and the noise stopped.
*kroooom!!*
And with a deafening explosion the meteorite exploded, turning into simple dust particles that the wind carried away.
Nothing of the previous meteorite remained, as if it had vanished in less than a second.
Everyone around me was in shock.
My women looked at me with lust in their eyes, Luke and Derrick looked at me as if I were a god come down to earth and the king's group looked at me completely stupefied.
Reida, who followed me on her knees on the floor, just laughed softly as her heart raced rapidly.
'Why would someone as powerful as him be interested in dominating a country? And why didn't he just take it by force?...' she wondered in her mind, unable to make sense of my actions.
Perugius and his entourage had watched all this with solemn expressions, but even that could not prevent the huge drops of sweat that ran from Perugius's forehead.
'What kind of magic was that?...earth magic?...but I've never seen a spell like this!!...Could it be God-rank magic? It's the only coherent explanation... but that precision... that control, I've never seen anything like that! ' Perugius murmured in his mind.
He was also grateful to himself for accepting the offer to be Rudeus's ally when the opportunity presented itself.
He didn't even dare to imagine that he had gone from having Rudeus as an enemy.
'Compared to him, Laplace is child's play!' were his thoughts.
For my part, I looked at the group of the royal family who looked at me completely terrified.
I knew they deserved to die and that's what I planned to do.
"Okay, now let's get to the next thing," I said in a serious tone and the king shuddered again.
"with the next thing?!...b-but what do you want now?!, I already gave you my kingdom and everything I had!, what more do you want?!" The king screamed completely terrified of me and I just smiled.
I looked at Ariel behind me and she nodded with a smile.
We both agreed on this and it's something I should have done a long time ago.
"It's simple, I'll just kill all the noble scum of this country and build a dictatorship disguised as a democratic republic," I said with an innocent smile and the king's eyes widened.
"And the first to receive that honor...will be you, Darius!" I said with a smile, pointing a finger at him.
Reida next to me froze but didn't dare say anything.
"W-what?!, kill me?!, nooo!, wait!, wait!, we can cooperate!, I have money!, influence!, I'll get you whatever you want I swear!!, but plea!!-"
Before I could continue listening to the fat pig's pleas, a stone bullet formed on my finger and shot towards him, completely shattering his skull in the process.
So his fat body collapsed on the floor with a thud staining the whole place with blood.
The king and Gravel stood completely paralyzed at this, staring at Darius's corpse before looking back at me with expressions of absolute terror.
"L-Lord Rudeus...please...I swear to you tha-"
This time Gravel's head was severed from his body a millisecond before he finished speaking.
Ariel behind me remained impassive
Seeing his own brother die did nothing for her, only relief as if she had gotten rid of a burden.
The king watched his son's head roll lifelessly to his feet, his face paled completely as he stared at me and closed his eyes waiting for death.
"Nah, don't be like that! I need you alive!" I said as I appeared at his side in an instant, hugging him by the shoulder and patting him on the chest.
At this the king could only turn pale and avoid looking at me.
...
The rest of the process was pretty easy.
After using my trump card, the king gave me the royal crown in good faith, arguing "how good I would be to be king in the future and such things"
What happened next could simply be summed up as the former king attempting to escape but was stopped by Perugius and Ghislaine.
Ariel, by my side, was immediately taken to the king's chambers, and a public announcement was made of his coronation, scheduled for a month from now.
Furthermore, all the nobles were requested to attend the king's chamber in the Silver Palace for a meeting.
Yes, there was going to be a power purge, but it's not as if it had been done before; besides, war crimes don't exist in this world.
The meeting was the day after Ariel broke into the palace.
The panic among the people was still very present after the enormous rock that almost fell on the city, but again, an announcement was made regarding this matter, dismissing it as a simple "demonstration of power by the Dragon God."
Yes, I revealed my identity publicly, and with Perugius's help, this was made more credible. That same afternoon, a total of fifty noble chiefs appeared in the meeting rooms.
Everyone had visibly tense expressions, and it was to be expected.
The king was seated on his throne. This would be his final royal decree, and with me at his side, this process would be much easier.
On the other side of the king was Ariel, and behind us were Perugius, Reida, and Ariel's entourage.
I was sure this was a scene I had never seen before, judging by the reactions of the various nobles.
I signaled to the king to begin the announcements.
So, with the rest of them pale and literally a gun pointed at their heads, he spoke.
"...I-I have gathered you here to discuss the matter of my daughter Ariel's succession to the throne..." the king murmured, his breathing becoming ragged as he clenched his fists tightly.
"Your Majesty?" one of the nobles murmured, completely confused, but the king raised a hand to silence him.
"I have gathered you here to announce that, starting tomorrow, my daughter Ariel Anemoy Asura will be the new queen of Asura, and Lord Rudeus Boreas Greyrath will be her husband and rightful king. Anyone who objects can speak now," the king said, and each and every one of the nobles' eyes widened.
"W-what? Lord Rudeus? Didn't he just recently marry Lady Eris, Lord Philip's daughter?!" Philemon was the first to react, staring at me angrily, but he immediately looked at the king and Perugius behind him and remained silent.
"Yes, but my daughter Ariel will be your second wife," the king replied.
"What? Your second wife?!"
"Impossible! Lady Ariel would never accept that!"
"Shouldn't Lady Eris be the concubine then?!"
Shock and murmurs increased among the nobles immediately. None of them knew what was happening, or well, they did, but they knew how to read the room well enough not to say it out loud.
"This is unheard of! Where is Gravel? Where is Darius?!" Philemon shouted at the top of his lungs, his eyes red with anger, his glare directed not only at me but also at the king.
"Prince Gravel and Minister Darius are currently indisposed... Now tell me, do you agree with this or oppose it? Feel free to express your opinions," the king said.
"I am! This is unheard of! We cannot allow this! Lord Perugius, do you-" Again, before Philemon could finish his tantrum, his head was severed from his body, falling to the ground with a thud before the astonished gazes of all the nobles.
But this time it wasn't from me, but from the rejuvenated Reida herself.
Since yesterday, she's been euphoric about her regained youth, so much so that she's even forgotten the fact that I killed her guilty pleasure known as Darius.
"Haaaa!!..."
"Help! Help!"
"Get me out of here!"
The nobles were quick to scream like dogs, but I remained patient. After about ten minutes, seeing that no one could get out, they stood still, trembling with fear.
"You're not making this easy! Now that the message is clear! Tell me who opposes this decision!" the king roared, venting all his anger and frustration on the nobles.
Obviously, none of the nobles are stupid, and they all remained silent, their eyes glued to Philemon's now lifeless body.
I glanced at Luke, who had averted his eyes from this event. He had asked for his father to be pardoned, but I denied it. It's not like he could do anything about it, after all.
"Well... since no one objects, this meeting is adjourned." With the king's words, all the nobles, without exception, ran out of the palace, presumably to flee the city. But fortunately, I had blocked all the exits, so if anyone tried to escape, their head would be severed from their body before they could even react or blink.
Besides, the nobles of Darius's faction couldn't be spared either; they would be next.
And so it was, that same night and with the help of the king a total of fifty nobles mysteriously disappeared without leaving any trace.
The bodies of Gravel and Darius were burned and their ashes thrown into the garbage.
The situation was resolved and the news of Ariel's coronation and mine soon spread, as did the fact that I was the Dragon God.
"...so you did it, huh?..." Philip muttered resignedly after he found out everything I had done.
"Yes, I'm sorry, father-in-law, but I had bigger ambitions. I hope you can understand," I said, shrugging my shoulders.
"...I see...b-but what will happen with the Boreas faction?, "Y-you won't abandon her, right?..." He muttered with growing anxiety but I just sighed in exasperation.
"You can become the leader if you want, after all I will be the king, besides...the factions of the Notos, Eurus and Sephirus were left without leaders" I said with a mocking smile.
Philip shuddered at this and could only clench his fists in anger.
"Haha! Rudeus my boy! I knew you had better ideas than my idiot son! Look at you! The new King of Asura hahaha!" Saurus said suddenly giving me a strong slap on the back while on his face there was a big smile
Something he had apparently never dedicated to Philip.
So the expression on my father-in-law's face was one of complete bitterness as he stared at me.
'I wish Rudeus had been my son instead of this loser!' Saurus thought in his mind as he looked at me with pride visible on his face.
