Arpious of the Planes



She was completely naked, clearly intending to seduce me some more, but for now, I wanted to solve a few things after taking a nice bath. First, there was my son, Hades, who kept bitching about. Second, I wanted to meet up with Homura and Treyni, who I've heard haven't taken my leave well. And then, third, I wanted to check up on my other two wives once again. I wanted to make sure they knew I was going to come back for them no matter what, especially since I have a new mission where I won't be able to visit them again for a while. 

"Honey, why don't we do it again? We both have some energy…." The devil slowly spread my legs, looking up at me seductively. But just before she could open her mouth, I pushed her back ever so slightly and hopped into the water with her. "Oh, come on…" She pouted, hugging my back as I moved to the edge of the hot springs, where I could narrowly see through the rushing water. 

"I wonder… now that I've been gone, there might be some peeps who may not respect me as much as the previous generations. That would be quite interesting as everybody has mostly been submissive to me for quite a long time…." 

"Baby~" The devil whispered into my ear, hugging me even more tiger than before so she could press her chest even further against my back. "I want to do it again~... you can't make me addicted to you and then just ignore me~. That's so mean~." 

Swiftly, I swiveled around and grabbed the woman's chin. She froze under my gaze while her breath began to rapidly increase in rate. She was ready for me again, but since I wasn't planning on doing such things, I gave her a short but sensual kiss to get her off of me just for a few minutes as I planned out tomorrow. 

…

The next day, I immediately met up with Hades, who looked more depressed than ever. Massive black eye bags hung so far down his face that he looked like he had died once again. He was already part undead, but because of those massive eyebags, he looked like a corpse who had straight up just become another corpse. It was sad to see. 

"God, you smell like alcohol," I nearly gagged as I helped the exhausted man to his office chair. He immediately sunk down into it and plopped his head back onto the headrest. I rolled him towards his desk and then swiveled around it so I could see him face to face. 

He was clearly awake, but no matter how much I tried to get his attention, he would just continue to blankly stare up at the ceiling. He now looked like a dead corpse who had just died once again and almost completed the look with his completely still pupils. It almost made me debate whether he had actually died or not. 

"HADES! LOOK AT ME!" I screamed while bending over the desk. And upon seeing his body not even twitch, I raised my hand and slapped him across his face. His skin immediately turned red upon contact, leaving him looking like a foolish man. But thankfully, I did get the confirmation that he was, in fact, still alive and not just a straight-up corpse. 

"Tch… Hades, look at me," A voice came from the doorway, causing me to snap my head backward. I met eye-to-eye with Aika, who slowly waltzed into the room, gazing past my face and then at the pitiful man who slumped in his chair. 

I couldn't even bare to look at him anymore as no matter what I tried to do, he wouldn't even respond. But I didn't have the heart to take it to the extreme… so I left it to Aika, who immediately caused him to blink for the first time. I closed the wooden door behind me, letting Aika work her magic whilst I waited just outside the room. 

Leaning against the wall, I heard both Hades and Aika begin to scream at each other. It started off with pure criticism, but eventually, it devolved into genuine insults. They were based on absolutely nothing, yet the other took complete offense to it. And I even began to get a bit worried, so I decided to step in and push through the wooden door. 

BAM 

It swung wide open, allowing me to storm towards the desk where Aika had Hades pressed against the desk, her fist cocked behind her, ready to unleash a punch that would either break the desk in two or break Hades' face in two. It was either one or the other, as Aika looked like she was filled to the brim with hatred. 

But, despite her being incredibly scary, I still stepped up and separated the two. I placed myself in between both of the idiots and made sure they kept their distance from each other. But even then, as they were far apart, their hatred took a demonic and deathly form that loomed over me, clashing even as I separated them. Their relationship was so horrible that they even began to subconsciously fight with each other, their own deathly magic working against their own family.

"Okay, that's enough!" I shouted, using [True Queen Overlords Dominating Presence] to separate not only their mental states but the thick clashing aura that had erupted over me. It was a skill I hadn't used in a long time since I could unleash a presence already strong enough to topple kingdoms, but it was pretty useful when dealing with things like this due to its conquering and almost controlling aura. 

On the other hand, the normal one I could control was made for pure dominance. It was made to conquer the weak, the exact opposite of these two beings. And since I was their family, using such a thing would have felt a bit rude since it would have almost been like treating them like subjects of my kingdom. While this was completely untrue, as one was the literal Kaiser and the other was a deathly god who conquered death and destruction. 

"I knew your relationship was horrible, but this is just fucking despicable. Aika, leave. Now," I commanded, but she was too focused on glaring at our son to even hear me. So, I spoke up once more, but this time unleashing all the power I could use on this one single woman. I was done with playing nice as I needed to fix this relationship from what seemed to be its very core. "LEAVE!" 

She was a bit taken aback by my anger but eventually stopped glaring at our son and turned away, clicking her tongue. Quickly, she exited the vicinity, even exiting the castle, and from what I could sense, storming out onto the streets, her deathly aura wreaking havoc on any passerby. 

"Yin, find a way to calm her down," I looked up at the corner of the room, meeting eye to eye with the assassin whose presence I just barely felt. If it wasn't for my own aura slightly shaking up everybody in the room, then I wouldn't have been able to even detect her in the first place. 

"Mistress, you need to calm down as well…" Yin muttered, her words unsure as she kept glancing up and down. She went from the floor to my eyes, the floor to my eyes, and rinse and repeat till I eventually replied. 

"Did you not fucking hear me," I sternly glared at Yin, who whimpered before disappearing from the room, leaving me with just my son, who leaned back against the desk behind him, slowly rubbing the red finger marks on his neck. "Goddammit… don't tell me she was choking you." 

Quickly, I rushed over to the man and turned his head to the side with ease. He barely resisted even as I touched the sore spot on his neck, which I quickly healed with beautiful white flames. They graced his pale skin with an angelic touch, also healing the massive eyebags that had destroyed his beautifully handsome face. 

"Mom, I feel like a failure. The thing you worked so hard for is about to fall apart because of me. The empress' are already planning an attack on this mountain, wanting to kill me. I'm sure your presence will slow their plans down, but it's invetable now because of me. I made them and their people suffer because of my horrible managing skills… I don't deserve to be a ruler. Please uncrown me. I can't bear this burden anymore." 

"I'm well aware of your stress, but I chose you for a reason. Out of all your siblings, even though you may have been a bit older than them at the time, you were the most promising. Imagine Luna or Freya running this place. Do realize how fast this place would have fallen if they were in charge? I crowned you as a ruler because you were the most promising, so don't be destroyed by one set back. Work around it in smart ways, and hey… I'm here for you now."
