"This actually works." Said a very dumpfolded priestess.
"Of course it works. I know my dick's amazing, but you were paying attention to the cerimony before we started, right?" Aki rebuted while rolling his eyes.
"But it's a divine spell!" She exclaimed.
"It's a hoax with a fancy name!" He told her in the same tone. "The gods just offer a part of their already very pure mana, or ether if they are powerfull enough, and let it be pulled through the connection every believer has while passing it through a pre-made spell module with which the caster seeks, hence the shorter casting time. Some spells need to be cast by then personaly but most such don't happen often so their 'heavenly spirits', and whatever other goons there are in their dirty basements, are the ones handling the middle tier spells." He elaborated with a gleam in his eyes and wide gestures.
Lots of people at the healing center he had established just thought their overlord was spouting meaningless heresy, but everyone with basic understanding over magic theorycrafting understood his hipoteses had plenty of credit and no real hole to it.
"Wait, then how did i just instacast a heal of middle strenght?" Said the processing priestess.
"Both S9 and Arcenis have the basic processing power equal to tens of angels because of their nature and a shit ton of mana very much connected to me, so it wasn't that hard to make a conjoined pool that can be used for things like this after inprinting several spells into it. Ironic how it became nearly indestructible after i finished it. Unless the actual god of war gets down here and hacks at it for some time it won't break. It will explode causing a gigantic wave that will aniquilate every soul in range and then implode causing a miniature black hole that will have tons of mana onto it, so about some four gods with related specialities working onto it would make it so that the thing didn't consume more than a tenth of the planet's volume." Aki said with a nochalant tone that did nothing to hide his pride over his creation.
*****
In the divine realm of the minor god of bondaries.
"Hold him tigher!"
"That's my ass!"
"Don't let him get the sword!"
"HELP!"
Several gods of diferent standings piled over the actual god of war as they tried to weigh him down after seeing the look on the people informed enough to tell them that Aki had not been kidding when he said the thing would problably become a small black hole and cause irreversible change to the world.
None of the present gods dared underestimate the lupine young man anymore.
His mind was sharp, his information too close to the truth, his goals too far apart from theirs.
"Could this be our first demon king?" Asked a smilling young boy who couldn't be older than six or seven. He had platinum blond hair and silver eyes, but his clothes were a rainbow of colors and a mixture of stiles that seemed to be something melded together, somehow.
"That is..."
"Actually very possible." Said the goddess of light after interupting the relatively young god. Suddenly she noticed something. "Silence." And everyone stopped, saw her attentively looking at the progection of the best view of Aki while he talked and turned to it.
"Anyway, this also means that i will be taking over your peeping privileges bitches." He suddenly said while looking at the old man they were looking through. "Ah, no sir, i'm talking with the gods. They're using you to spy on me. The light goddess problably noticed i'm talking to them by now, because of course she is there, so i suggest you pray now since your god may actually listen to you. The shield will activate in about 15 minutes though, so they won't be able to hear anymore. Calm down everyone, it's not like the gods actually listen to your prayers, they just leave it to their angels and sometimes listen to te most interesting or silly wishes, like someone that will fervently and constantly pray for a couch. Angels also don't really do shit either unless you have a way to make them decend, so I'm not making any difference in the life's of anyone. You can leave the shield any time though, so it's no problem at all even if you want to pray outside. Only a measly copper for going in and out of the great church outside people. I'll also be building a shrine for myself inside the city though, and putting a suggestion box anyone can use. Hahaha..."
"....." No one made a sound as they listened to the little fucker making such announcements in the middle of nowhere. He was obviously provoking them.
"Is it just me or did decending suddenly become a much more appealing option?" Asked a random god with a twitch of his temple, getting nods and several agreeing noises, some gods were actually going to decend just now. Suddenly Aki stopped laughing and raised the old man's head while opening one of his eyes.
"One last thing. If you decend them I won't mind calling for 'them', since no one I care for would survive anyway. You know, Yogy, his wife, his yellow brother, maybe even my former land lord would like to rampage a bit after sleeping for so long." He told them with a grin that chilled the spine of every being present on the divine realm. "Hail the demon sultan, may his excellency grace us with his eternal slumber." And that was all the confirmation they needed for marking off directly attacking this guy.
*****
"Was that scene really necessary?" Asked a mana drained priestess after getting back to the palace.
"Of course, I have several projects I wish to put in order, but the gods could very well peek at them if I don't raise the shield, but if I raise the shield they may just decide to take drastic measures, like decending." He told her while nodding but not taking his gaze from his book.
"Compensate me." She told him while pouting.
"I'm not sleeping with you again." He imediatly shot her down. "I told you so the moment you disrobed yourself out of nowhere that night. Maybe if you knock on our door when the moon is full again me and my wife won't mind, but even if Anna's culture is shit and she was raised not to care how many lovers I have, that doesn't mean I will just whore around." He explained while waving a hand and summoning an apple and muttering for a bit.
"What if I say I have your child on the way?" She grinned.
"I'm sterile. Made the procedure myself. Besides, I know exactly how a five day feetus looks like." He said while squinting over the book on his office's table.
"There's a procedure for that which doesn't make men inpotent? Wait, what of the juices coming out of the tentacles?" She asked, surprised again and again.
"Yep. Was planning to secretly doing it when back in my world, so I actually knew a bit about it. Add magic and regeneration to the equation and I did it even before I threw my virginity away. Also, I forgot to explain those, but they're basically hard light constructs, but work with my soul, so they they were more like extensions of me. Meaning I practically overheated my balls by having six dicks at the same time." He grinned while finally facing her. "It's because of those little things that I love magic, you know?" He said before throwing the golden apple in his hand to her.
"What's this?" Asked the still confused young woman.
"Stop frowing so much. If you're only two years older than me, than how I am to feel when you start looking like a granny?" He retorted "It's an apple of life. Supposed to give temporary unlimited energy. Also an aphrodisiac which heightens the chance of women getting pregnant, so remember to use anti-conseptionals. Very hardcore on doing it too, so don't go abusing it. One bite per day, lasts 3 hours. Anymore and you will start hurting someone." Elize was very much happy with her compensation. So happy she was going to experiment with it right... Aki snapped his fingers in front of her face a couple of times to get her attention, she hadn't been paying attention to when he got up. "Now, don't rape anyone, don't throw names around, and if I find out you slept with someone below sixteen I'm locking you in my dungeon for a month and making you watch animals mate. We clear?" He very seriously told her while staring into her eyes and got a scared nod out of the eager blonde before she left while eyeing him.
Sighing, Aki prepared for his next 'good action' of the day.
*****
"Nonono, don't take your clothes off! Stay with the others! Spit the mushroom out, no one else is dumb enough to poison themselves!..." The vampiric maiden screamed around as the four patients repeatedly tried to go back to their usual acts.
They were the first batch and relatively the worse off from all the gathered slaves, so Aki deemed to help them first. Just putting them out of stasis had them like this though...
"Line up." Aki commanded and all the patients obeyed. Being nice to them was useless, one of them couldn't even fucking recognize any other tone of voice!
"You are not a bed slave anymore, stop stripping and get to learning from the head maid. I want you to bother than and learn to do your best and while taking care of the castle animals. Make sure they are happy. Note that the only way that will happen is if you can express happines in their presence and as there is no manual you have to train by doing it." He told the small girl that was only eleven. She was completely battered and bruised before being healed. She couldn't stop shivering and apologizing after the healing mana flowed through her.
Aki made sure to add ten thousand years of severe public service to her former master.
"You are not undesirable, I want you to take that mask off and smile, because you are one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen and you can make so many people feel better with themselves if you just smile." He told the cat-kin with short red hair and a completely off-white mask not having any holes. Getting here she was bald, without tail and a roughly removed clytoris.
Aki shoved the girl who owned her into the body of a giant cockroach.
"You are prohibited from eating anything bitter. Forever. unless it's a selebration. If you want to keep protecting someone get a shield and practice with it untill you make sure none are hurt, including you. Understand one thing, any attack i dished that you tried to protect would go straight through you. Without some serious skill training your resistances will be uterly useless and everything you have sufered until now will be useless. While at it i want you to begin training your interaction with other people. If you can't compare to someone trained in deceiving you will quickly find their attacks hitting your charge before you notice and..." Aki narated trajedy after tragedy to the young man with short purple hair in front of him. He didn't have any expression at the begining, but with Aki getting more and more detailed slight understanding donned on his face.
"Why have i never trained like that..." He mutered, not actually expecting an answer. He probably hadn't even realized he'd spoken out loud. It was hard to tell if the boy had been born in his own world already or gotten like this because of the extreme torture, but at this point it didn't matter.
"Because the people before didn't know you were such a good boy. They were afraid of your dedication, because none of them could compare. Jony, there's someone very important i want you to protect, there's no one bether for the task. Your charge is a very demanding woman, she will notice if you try to lie to her, lose herself in confusion if you can't make a decision yourself, she will try to care for you no mater what. You are not ready to protect her because any of her flaws may hurt her. She's already hurting Jony. She's one of the few people that may understand you." He calmly told the teen with around the same age as himself. The boy noded.
Turning to the fourth slave, Aki couldn't help but to pause to breathe a bit.
"Any snarky comment you want to get out of the way before i start?" He asked the smiling bunny girl. She was tall, beautifull and certainly didn't fit with the other three rejects in the eyes of anyone else even when she got here.
"I don't particularly have anything to complain about master." She softly told him in a calming voice.
"Believe me, that's not going to last." He scoffed, causing a small twitch at her eyebrown that only he noticed. "First of all, no bitching around, no ploting, no getting a creepy ratman or ugly guy with a feet fetish to assasinate anyone directly or indirectly, no sneaking into rooms for seducing, specialy the new nympho, no going into the kitchen, you ask someone to bring things to you, no bombing, terrorist attack or not, no covering a coat of poison between your nails in poison, no switching one of your teeth with something else, never wear something showing cleavege, no high heels,..." Like the last one, Aki kept going and going on posible horible scenarios and took out the knife beneath her skin, the containers in her molars, cleaned her nails, gave her a jacket, scrubed the dresses of the two maids who had bought her to the room, taking out one of her eyes away from the view of others without her even flinching and regrowing her natural eye back.
When Aki finally finished, the woman was actually showing some minor changes in her originally smiling and calm appearence.
"Anything you want to say now?" He asked.
"Yes, fuck you." She actually sounded completely emotionless and somehow pulled off the impression of a complete murder machine while looking like a completely innocent and smiling bunny.
"I'm told that a lot. See it by the bright side, now the mental waves can start having a higher effect on you since you don't actually have equipment or techniques that have not been invalidated through a contract. You will be infitly more happy with..." Aki reflexbly dodged her spit. Women seemed to do that to him a lot for some reason. "Having a more normal life here in the castle. No plots, friends, family, anything you can make with the special right i'm going to grant. Diferent from the other guys here, you are very much like a feme-fatale version of me, i also don't buy the deep hatred by the way, so i would like to say a few words to you as a person." He told her while nodding, her expression already placid.
She expected something ridiculous or crazy, but she didn't get what she expected.
"Your smile is pure shit." He smiled at her with some actual mirth. A smile that made his face look flacid and about to tear, something no one would actually call a smile unless they'd never seen one before. For some reason she had a similar smile on her face while looking at the man.
