Chapter 67 - Fiendgod Empress

Outside in the streets, right before one of the various local restaurants of Kuoh Town, a beautiful girl in blueish-white dress was currently talking with Issei. The two had only recently met and the formalities and greetings were done with. Issei said "Well, It's getting late, so lets eat first."

He had chosen to meet with Asia right outside this restaurant, because he knew that it would be pretty late once he left the Occult Research Club. He escorted Asia into the restaurant and the two had a very nice japanese-style dinner. It was only at this time when he was talking casually with Asia that he remembered something important.

Wasn't this where I came from? Earth? Issei remembered that once he was reincarnated — back in his home universe — he had to learn how to speak Japanese and that the system helped him out when he only knew English. In this universe, there was an earth with many English speaking countries. Was this his previous home? Which English-speaking country was he from? Or maybe English was a common language across the multiverse; Japanese was already confirmed as it was the first language he encountered in both universes.

Issei was brought back to reality when Asia said "So… Lord Issei… Where am I going to stay?"

"Lord?"

"It's only natural to call a god by the title lord!"

"Could you not? Actually, since you already know I was once an immortal, I should let you in on some information about my past."

"A god's trials and tribulations?" Star-like eyes of worship appeared on Asia's face as she thought that her new god would tell her about divine secrets.

"Anyways… I would feel a lot better if you called me Chojusen as that is my birth name. I originally was not a part of this universe. I only came here to get stronger as my home universe was restricting my growth."

"Chojusen? And you've travelled across your entire home universe?!"

"Right. Before I came here I could wipe out small planets and travel the cosmos. But once I made my ascension, I temporarily lost all my powers. Right now I'm on the road to recovery."

All this talk about ascension and cosmic events was too much for Asia to take in so suddenly. She said "So should I call you Lord Chojusen?"

"Just Chojusen..."

Chojusen continued "As for where you'll stay. I'll have to ask my parents if you can stay at my house. I'm pretty sure we have an extra room unused. If they decline, you can just spend the night in my personal dimension until I get my own house."

"P-personal d-d-dimen-sion?"

"It's just some magic… I'll teach you later as well."

...

After the late dinner, Chojusen walked Asia home to the surprise and disbelief of his parents. It was then Chojusen's turn to be surprised, when he saw how easily his parents were to convince. Apparently, bringing a foreign beauty home to live as a family was normal in his parents' eyes.

Since Asia left the church so suddenly, she currently had nothing other than her nun outfit and the dress that Chojusen created for her. Chojusen figured this bit of information out himself, so he made a couple more sets of clothes and dresses for Asia before returning to his room.

In his room, Chojusen entered his personal dimension and called the system to start the process. After praying for his 10,000 points to live on happily inside the metaphysical stomach of the system, eight pawn chess pieces were pulled out of Chojusen's soul. Along with losing the eight pawns, Chojusen lost his Promotion Passive Skill.

Chojusen stopped with his silly behavior and seriously examined the chess pieces in his hands. He was all too familiar with reincarnation and recreation skills so he more or less understood the principles behind reincarnating something into a new species. All he would have to do was create a medium like this chess piece and infuse it with a bit of his bloodline essence and presto; he could now reincarnate others into his various bloodlines.

However, the chess pieces had an extra component to them; the special abilities. Chojusen didn't really understand the principles behind the special attributes. It was even harder for him to understand since he could only study these eight pawn pieces. Still, even though he only had these pawns, he managed to arrive at the correct conclusion at the end. He guessed that the more bloodline essence he sacrificed the better the abilities for whoever he reincarnated.

After coming to this conclusion, Chojusen used his butterfly summoning technique to summon Chokogo; it was the first time in his life that he had to summon her this way.

Chokogo was now in a crisis. She had just been playing around with her master's wives in his personal dimensions lake, when suddenly, she felt someone summoning her. A master's summon had to be answered, so she immediately teleported away to the next highest universe. Now this universe was out for her blood and she could sense annihilating laws lock onto her soul.

In this depression, Chojusen said "Chokogo calm down! Right now I need you to cooperate with me so that I can fit you for this world's system!"

Chokogo stopped resisting and followed Chojusen's voice. She had many questions, but right now was not the time to mess around.

Chojusen took inspiration from the Evil Pieces set and created a queen piece for Chokogo out of his Armament creation skill. He then cut his bloodline essence for his Fiendgod bloodline in half and fused the two into Chokogo's deteriorating body. Half his bloodline essence was all he could sacrifice, as any more and he would not be able to recover with Yang Rebirth.

As the bloodline infused queen piece entered Chokogo's body, the universe started to calm down and stopped its decaying process. Chokogo's butterfly body then corroded into nothingness before piecing itself back together as a demi-human butterfly. The act of Chojusen reincarnating Chokogo caused a new passive ability to take over the spot, previously taken by Promotion.

[Host has gained the new passive ability: Fiendgod Emperor Ancestor

Fiendgod Emperor Ancestor (Rank Novice | 0/100): A passive skill given to those that start their own Fiendgod peerage. The higher the Rank and Proficiency of this skill, the higher the resonance between a Fiendgod Emperor and his Peerage. Current Effect: The user can double all aspects of his strength when fighting with a member of his peerage]

The Fiendgod aura coming off Chokogo's body could rival Chojusen back when he was pressured by Rias. Chokogo was naturally a world-class beauty after gaining a humanoid body. She had long salt and pepper hair that reached her waistline, void black eyes like Chojusen, and a petite build like Koneko.

When the reincarnation was done with, Chojusen caught Chokogo before she fell to the floor powerless from having her internal energy system completely overhauled. He then made her some clothes and trained while waiting for her to wake up.

Chokogo woke up a couple minutes later, drawing Chojusen's attention. Chojusen said "Ah, It's only been a week but I was already missed you so much that I called you to help me out in the higher universe."

"Master?"

"Chokogo I told you time and time again to just call me by my name."

"Chojusen… I..." Chokogo then felt a small headache from information appearing in her mind. She said "Fiendgod Empress?"

Chojusen was confused by the random title "What?"

"You've made me into a living legend! A Fiendgod Empress! Wait… Could it be..." Chokogo transformed back into her original butterfly form and the joy in her voice was impossible to miss. Her black butterfly wings and body gained nine dangerous flaring grey streaks. She said "Nine-striped Empress Fiendgod Butterfly!"

"Can you calm down and explain what just happened?"

Chokogo reverted back to her demi-human form and tackled Chojusen. She had always been jealous of her master's wives, as they could please him with their bodies while she couldn't, because she was just a butterfly. Now she savored this opportunity and gave Chojusen a full body hug as if she would lose her demi-human form at any moment.

She said "Chojusen, I don't know what you did, but now I've evolved into a higher ranked Fiendgod. Before I was just the lowest Ranked basic Fiendgod Butterfly. But now I've skipped the mid rank, high rank, queen rank, and reached the Empress Rank!"

"I don't really know what that means, but it must be a good thing. Anyways… I have no doubt that you can tell from the changes in your body, but I've summoned you to help me as my familiar in the higher universe."

"I'll do my best!" Chokogo wouldn't disrespect this avatar of Chojusen; in her eyes, all pieces of Chojusen were deserving of all her respect and devotion.

"Alright… could you… get off of me?"

"Oh sorry~"

Chokogo stopped holding onto him like her life depended on it, and the two began to two about the current universe. Since Chokogo was a relatively high ranking Fiendgod now, Chojusen began to teach her demonic energy manipulation. When he told Chokogo all she needed to know, Chojusen left his personal dimension and went to go take a shower.
