I stood in front of Albedo, my thoughts clear and focused. She was more than just a creation—she was someone I needed. Her strength, her loyalty, I could rely on both. But I needed to make that clear.
"Albedo," I said, my voice firm. "You're going to be my knight. You'll protect this realm, and in return, I'll trust you with everything I have. I need someone who's strong and loyal, and I believe you're the one I can count on."
She looked at me, her eyes steady and unwavering. I could tell she was processing what I was saying.
There were no grand speeches between us. Just the understanding that I was giving her something important—and I needed to know she could hold up her end.
"I'll protect it, Master Kai. You have my word," she said, her voice calm but full of conviction.
That was exactly what I wanted to hear. I nodded, feeling a weight lift off my chest. "Good. Your loyalty will keep this place safe. And that's what matters most to me. I'm building something here, and I need people I can trust to protect it."
She didn't hesitate, stepping closer. "Then I'll give you all of it. My loyalty, my strength, everything I have. I'll stand by you, always."
I could see it in her eyes. She meant it. And that meant everything. No need for more words. This was our pact, simple and solid.
She was going to be my right hand, someone who would help me shape this world. It was a relief to know I could count on her.
But I wasn't done yet. I had created Albedo to be my protector, but I realized I needed more than just a warrior.
I needed something different, someone who would bring another kind of power to this world.
So, I focused again, shaping my thoughts into something new. This time, I didn't want someone like Albedo—strong and loyal—but I needed a different presence, someone who could command attention in her own way.
I closed my eyes for a moment, and when I opened them, she was there.
A woman dressed in black, her eyes a deep red, her purple hair flowing like smoke. She looked different—mysterious, dangerous, almost like a shadow.
She wasn't a warrior like Albedo, but something else entirely. A force, something that would add balance to my world.
I looked at her and spoke, my tone steady, sure. "Your name is Scathach. You are the Queen of the Night."
She stood before me, her presence overwhelming in a way that was both unsettling and powerful. But I wasn't afraid. I created this. I had control. She was mine.
Scathach met my gaze, her eyes piercing, as if she was trying to understand me. She spoke, her voice calm and measured. "Master Kai," she said, acknowledging me, "I will serve you. My existence will be a part of your vision."
I didn't need to say anything more. She understood. She wasn't just a servant—she was someone who would play a key role in what I was building. Her power, her energy, was exactly what I needed.
Albedo stepped forward, a small frown on her face as she looked at Scathach. "You're different," she said, her voice calm but filled with curiosity. "Not like me."
Scathach tilted her head slightly, studying Albedo for a moment. "I am who I need to be," she said simply. "And I will serve Master Kai, just as you do."
There was a brief pause as both of them sized each other up. I could sense the tension between them, but I didn't care.
They didn't need to like each other. They needed to understand that they were both part of something bigger now. A part of my plan.
I stepped forward, feeling the weight of the decisions I was making. "Both of you," I said, addressing them both. "You're my foundation.
Albedo, you'll protect this realm. Scathach, you'll bring something else—something I can't quite put into words yet, but I'll need it."
Albedo nodded without hesitation. "Of course, Master."
Scathach's eyes sparkled with interest, and I could see the wheels turning in her head. "Then I will be ready, when you need me."
I nodded, feeling a sense of satisfaction. This was just the beginning. With Albedo and Scathach at my side, I was building something real.
But I wasn't done yet. There was more to do, more to create. I had plans—big ones.
And somewhere deep down, in the back of my mind, I couldn't help but think about Asha. I didn't know where she was, but I couldn't forget her.
She was always in my thoughts, a constant reminder of what I was doing all this for. I couldn't let myself lose her, i will find her again.
As time went on, I began to notice something. The realm was growing, and I was growing with it. It wasn't just about creating things anymore.
It was about control. Power. The world, as I was learning more every day, wasn't kind to those who were weak.
You had to fight for everything. You had to rise up, no matter the cost.
I remembered the times before—before I had this power, before I had Albedo and Scathach by my side.
I remembered being weak. The world wasn't kind to someone like me, not back then. People walked over you if you didn't have anything to protect yourself. It didn't matter who you were or what you stood for.
If you couldn't hold your own, you got crushed.
I didn't want to be crushed anymore. I couldn't afford that. And that's why I made this realm. That's why I created beings who would stand by me.
Albedo and Scathach weren't just loyal subjects—they were reminders of what I had to become. Strong. Unyielding. Never showing weakness.
But even as I became more powerful, there was one thing I couldn't shake off. The thought of Asha.
She was out there somewhere, lost to me, but I couldn't stop thinking about her. Asha had always been there for me.
She was the one person I'd always counted on, the one person who hadn't treated me like just another nobody.
I had no idea where she was now. She could be anywhere, but I couldn't let go of the hope that one day I'd find her again.
I looked at Albedo and Scathach, standing at my sides. I had built a new family in this world, a new purpose. But Asha was still the one thing that kept me grounded.
I shook the thought from my mind. No point in dwelling on things that couldn't be helped. I had a plan, a path to follow.
And it started with exploring new worlds. I needed to grow stronger, to test myself in ways I hadn't before.
"There are other worlds out there," I said, my voice firm. "We're going to leave this realm behind. I've already decided."
Albedo and Scathach exchanged looks, then nodded. "Where are we going, Master?" Scathach asked, her voice calm but curious.
"I'm thinking about One Punch Man," I said, a grin slowly spreading across my face. "It's the perfect place to push myself. Strength, humor, a whole new kind of challenge."
Albedo gave me a small smile, but I could tell she was ready. "We'll go with you, Master. Wherever you go, we follow."
I could feel the weight of the decision settle in. This was it—the beginning of something bigger than just my realm.
I wasn't just creating a world anymore.
I was going to conquer others. And maybe, just maybe, I would find the strength to track down Asha, to bring her into this world I was building.
The wheel I'd made was still spinning, names of different anime worlds scattered across it. With one quick flick, I let it spin. It slowed, and finally came to a stop on the name "One Punch Man."
"That's our next stop," I said with a grin. "Let's see what that world has to offer."
