Nyx finally let me go after my emotions stabilized.
I had left the astral clocktower and entered the outer borders of Eden to where I had last sensed Kevin, I sensed other presences near him that were like him. Sensing the similar presences made me realize what Kevin had been doing in his free time when he was not by my side. I'm so glad he was doing something aside from waiting for me to wake up.
When I arrived to Kevin's location, I saw what Kevin had been doing which confirmed my suspicions. Kevin had used the integrated Michael and learned to create angels and raised them himself.
When I arrived, Kevin had immediately bowed before me. This caused the other angels to realize my identity and kneel aswell.
"Get up, there's no need for formalities."
"Master, did something happen just now?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well ever since you created me, you've always been so depressed and easily prone to anger but now you look just… glowing."
Jeez, was my bad mood that obvious this whole time.
I just ignored his question and continued with my inquiry, "I've come to ask you something."
Kevin got up, "Yes, what is it you want of me?"
" You said that you wanted to ask something of me, we'll go ahead."
"Oh… Master, what are the angels of origin?"
My eyes went wide with surprised, "The angels of origin… well they are the seven angels that has existed since the dawn of time, created by the original creator, Veldanava. Why do you ask?"
"When Gehrman had met up with Guy and Velzard, he had gotten some very valuable information. Apparently around the time of my evolution, Guy had been informed that a new angel of origin had been born into the world."
His words made me froze, 'I created an angel of origin? I am god.' I guess the power had gone to my head a little too much a little too fast but if you suddenly created a primordial being then I think a little arrogance is a little bit of my right.
" My lord, is there anything else you want from me?" As he said those words, I eyed him up and down. Currently he was wearing a denim jeans and a red button up shirt.
This is unfitting for him, fortunately I had created the clothes for him beforehand. I hoovered my hand over his face and a white light coalesced around him, when the light dissipated, Kevin was in an entirely new outfit. The outfit consisted of a long black coat over a white turtleneck, with black pants and boots, there were splashes of blue all over his outfit for aesthetic appeal.
"There we go. What do you think?"
Kevin was immediately astounded with the style of the outfit on him. Even the desire less angels serving him were enamoured by the cool new outfit.
I was contemplating my next move previously but now I realized that I have a chance to obtain a new surbordinate. It was obvious that with the birth of an 8th angel of origin would cause the world to forcibly cause balance and create an 8th primordial demon.
Time for invasion.
————————————————
On this current day, the Daemon realm was invaded by a strange force, a misty form had penetrated the dimensional barrier.
I had sent the grayfog into this place to investigate and see if my theory was right.
It took a while but I finally found it, found her that is and she was… hanging out with the other primordials… how in the hell did this happen, I thought they all hated each other.
Before anything else happened, the 5 primordials immediately reacted, they could feel something happening around them, 'Oh, it seems they've sensed me.'
I made the grey fog visible to their eyes, causing them to feel a sense of weirdness from the fog all around them, they knew that there was something off, but they hadn't expected the thing to have completely surrounded them.
Jaune and Violet were already in a bad mood and acted impulsively, trying to escape the fog but they simply ended up back in the meeting room they had tried to escape from.
They had realized fairly quickly that they were in a loop, a spacetime maze that would keep them in that room. Despite this, Violet and Jaune being the impulsive type, kept on trying yet could not pierce through the fog. The remaining three primordials were more curious than cautious.
Blanc giggled at the two primordials failed attempt at escape while Noir and Rose began examining the fog. Rose plunged her hand into the fog and found her hand had appeared in different places in space all at once, this in turn stirred up new excitement in Noir.
"Could you two please stop?" An echo resounded through the fog. Everyone turned their heads and, in place of a door, they found humanoid shadow in the fog.
Without hesitation, Violet tried to strike me with rend yet her attack was incapable of reaching me, "You really are incapable of remaining docile?"
"You dare attack me? Do you know who I am!?"
"Firstly, this was not an attack; Secondly, I do know you and frankly I don't care. You have to calm down Violet because you're not gonna be able to anything to me. I didn't come for you anyway."
Blanc was intrigued, "And who did you come for?"
"I came for her." I said while pointing at the pink haired devil.
This surprised everyone and put somewhat of a bitter taste in Jaune and Violet, she had just been born and yet she was already receiving more power and attention than they were, although they didn't show it because they weren't even aware of their own feelings.
The pink one pointed to her in surprise which my shadow nodded.
"It's clear by your face that you are surprised. Let me in on this, everyone would want a powerful demon as a surbordinate but the reason I want you is simple. In a sense, I was the one who created you."
…
I had expected to send a shock through their system but I wasn't expecting it to be this bad.
"I guess I should explain myself. Noir would you mind explaining the angels of origin for me."
Noir was caught off guard by this but decided to comply anyway, Noir explained the origin of the seven angels and the cause and effect afterwards that created the seven primordial demons, "…That's the whole story, but what does that have to do with You creating Rose."
I understood Noir's confusion and explained the story, "A few days ago, I had created an angel that became so powerful that the world couldn't comprehend it's strength and to make sense of his existence, it registered them as an angel of origin."
Blanc immediately knew what I was about to say and finished for me, "…So to balance out the world, it created Rose."
The primordials that has existed since the dawn of creation were in shock at the figure before them.
"Ok, but I have a couple conditions." Rose was fine with being my surbordinates but she clearly was on the fence about some things.
" Fine, make your demands."
" First, I want to have free reign over my movements, I don't want you simply dictating my every movement. Secondly you have to beat me at combat first, in want to test your strength myself." As she was explaining, she spoke the last part with a servant smile.
"…Wait, that's it. I can work with that."
I shrouded us in fog leaving the room and demons in disarray.
Jaune and Violet were too surprised by this sudden turn of events. Noir smiled intrigued but Blanc, she felt ecstatic and regretful that she didn't ask serve me aswell.
————————————————
Before her eyes, Me and Rose had arrived onto an empty platform in space. I had revealed myself from the fog and Rose had a material body.
"Ready…"
"It's Rose and I'm ready." Rose didn't wait for a countdown, she lunged at me and tried to rend me in twain.
I had already analysed her abilities. For a new born, she is quite incredible, she already has two unique skill.
The first was Ravager, this was essentially a combination of Beserker and Starved, allowing her to multiply her physical abilities and devour her opponents and absorb their skills, she can also give and take skills to surbordinates via Food chain.
The second is Guide which is an optimizing ability aswell as a great spatial ability. The sub skills are Thought acceleration, Analytical appraisal, All of creation, Chant annulment and spatial manipulation.
As I was mentally mapping her abilities, Rose was getting frustrated, she was clearly getting outplayed by someone who wasn't even focusing on her.
She realized I had come too and the moment that happened, she felt a fist indent itself into her gut, no she felt several thousand fist indent itself into her all at once.
'Well that was anticlimactic.' I had generally thought that she would be more of a challenge but I didn't even use any skills.
Rose was on the ground. She was not very happy, she would've been happy with the fight being even but being treated like a toy made her feel a little bitter. Rose was mainly upset that since she could barely make him notice her then he would just send her to the Daemon realm.
"Rose. Are you ok."
His sudden worry for her was surprising. Upon birth, she had gotten an instinctual understanding of the world and the view on demons. For a human to treat a demon with such care was surprising.
"You-you're not gonna get rid of me?"
"Why would I?"
"Cause I'm weak."
"Maybe, but don't sweat the small stuff. Weakness isn't a problem. Refusing to get stronger is. Do you truly want to work for me."
Like a child, Rose shock her head vigorously.
"Then make sure to never stop improving yourself."
"I- I promise that I shall serve you for eternity."
"Then your name shall be Yuura."
At that, about 10% of my magicules left my body and entered hers.
I had left her to her own devices after that, but the moment I did, I felt a shiver crawl up my spine.
Yuura upon getting a name had gained the strong desire to make her master hers causing her to gain something new.
[Acquisition of the unique skill: Conquerer… successful]
