(3 out of 3 chapters this week)
Quinella silently followed Marcus as they were walking towards Maglev station.
They have returned to their base after dropping the Alchemist's father at the supermarket.
The Platinum silver-haired beauty could sense some nervousness from her creator.
"Master, are you alright?"
"I am fine." He said with a resigned sigh.
"Marcus doesn't know how his mother will react to all of this," Athena clarified as she could understand his behaviour.
"This is one of those strange moments." He nodded at Athena's words.
"I could calculate it if you wish." The Assistant swiftly suggested to them.
"That's fine. I will take that damage head-on." He sighed again.
"As you wish." The Assistant nodded at his choice.
"Now come, we will take the maglev home to see my parents."
The pair nodded at him. This was something they expected. Marcus should have taken the gunship to the docks just so that he could take the maglev back to the garage.
That time could be used for him to think. But there are no proper landing places in the Docks and it is far too far away.
So he just took a flight to the barracks.
As the maglev arrived the trio boarded it and the train proceeded to move towards the garage.
~~~
Roland was sweating buckets. His wife looked furious.
The reason for this was that he didn't take his phone and she called him 54 times!
The reason for this was that he was with Marcus and he didn't take his phone with him!
"I was worried sick! I called you 54 times! I tried to call Mark but he didn't pick up either! I thought two got taken by the police or something!
"Why would we be taken by the Police?"
"What do you mean why!? I heard over the radio that Marcus is selling advanced technology!"
'Oh right. I don't doubt that NATO and other countries will want that tech… but how little do they know…'
After seeing the barracks and the technology used there Roland felt pity towards the nation's military.
"Don't worry about it. If he knew he would be in trouble he wouldn't have started selling."
His answer didn't help her to relax.
"And who is that woman? His manager? I never heard about it! She said she was his girlfriend! I thought Serafall was his girlfriend!"
Roland proceeded to grimace.
That was the issue. He has more than one girlfriend and even a fiance!
"That's Latia Astaroth."
"Oh? You know her?"
"I heard about her from Marcus. And the whole thing is extremely complex. I can tell more once we are at home."
"...Hmm…fine."
~~~
It took longer for Marcus to return than it took for his father.
So by the time Marcus entered his home, his mother was already in the kitchen heating her lunch.
"Mark! Explain yourself!" Rose, Marcus' mother asked with narrowed eyes, she KNEW it was him who entered the house.
"..."
She turned around and looked at a pair of beautiful women who followed after her son.
"And these ladies?"
"...Related to my shop. Well, more like related to the whole thing.."
"Hmm, your father said it was something more complex." She looked towards the living room. His father already washed himself off from all of this!
"Yes, well, the phones I am selling in that store are much more advanced than anything in this world.
That's because I will have been studying supernatural magic."
"...Supernatural? Like your sister who was learning the occult all those years ago? She has been playing with those cards for days."
Athena looked at Marcus who looked back at her.
"Tarot cards. She is good at reading 'energies' from people. You know, feeling positive and negative energies." The Alchemist explained smoothly to the Goddess of Wisdom.
"Yes. But much more than that. You see—"
A book appeared in Marcus' hands.
"I was chosen to inherit Solomon's magic. Which is Alchemy and Inscriptions, more precisely like magical letters. This allowed me to rapidly develop the technology."
Athena trembled when she heard that. He was the inheritor of Solomon's magic!? That's…
Makes so much sense!!!
No wonder he could beat Artemis so easily! And develop all of that! He had foundations left to him by the King of Magic!
"How did that… book…"
"Athena, can you show something more fancy?"
"As you wish."
The Greek Goddess lifted her hand and a white owl appeared in her hand.
"!"
The owl flew over and landed on Athena's shoulder.
"This is!!!"
"This is Athena, also known as the Goddess of Wisdom and Warfare."
"Goddess!? What would a Goddess want with us!?"
"..."
"..."
The pair of girls looked at Marcus for a bit.
"That's complicated."
"...No doubt. Did you do something!?"
"...Quite a bit…" Solomon's successor didn't even know where to start.
"Mark! Spit it out."
"Well… simply put…I started to make waves in the supernatural world."
"I can see that." His mother looked at the literal Goddess standing in her kitchen.
"Yes. Well, one thing led to another… and I ended up fighting Artemis, I won and I got some more attention and eventually Olympus allowed me to marry Athena."
"...Oh God."
Before she can collapse Marcus already used his Psionic powers to catch her.
"...That went… well…"
Athena commented from the side.
"Master, what did you just tell me a couple of minutes ago? About ease people in?" Quinella teased her Master.
Marcus rolled his eyes and ignored her comment.
"Quinella and Athena I leave my mother to you. I need to restock everything…I am pretty sure she will want her wine to digest this information."
"Understood, Master."
"I will tend to her."
The pair proceeded to take his mother to the living room where Roland was.
"Hey Mark! Since you're getting some booze I want some beer!"
Marcus' eyebrow twitched for a bit when he heard his father being quite happy about free alcohol.
"Fine."
~~~
Marcus' shop opening was quite a strange development.
For one it opened as a single shop in a small town. The town barely had around 30 thousand people.
However, it didn't take long for news to spread. Because the phones this place is selling are utterly insane, by all accounts!
A large touch screen, front and back camera, very long battery life, and the OS was extremely smooth. The original apps it came with were interesting as well. Several social apps which people haven't seen before. They were tailored for such phones.
Less than six hours after the opening of the store, the news vans were already there. Journalists and reporters wanted to talk.
Latia was ready for them. She was ready to lay waste towards these news agencies. Her people were already there and none of these people will be able to spin their stories.
Nope, she simply won't allow it.
"Miss you said that you are the shop manager of Goldman Technologies?" One of the reporters asked.
"That is correct."
"May I ask from where such advanced phones have appeared?" Another one asked.
"Appeared? Not quite, the idea of selling advanced phones came up when I saw that my boyfriend is extremely talented with technology. I used my family's resources to give him raw materials, the rest was his ingenuity." Latia smoothly explained.
But the reporters were baffled. Is she saying that all of this was done by a single guy!?
"Are you saying that these phones were created by one individual?"
"No. What I am saying is that he built the first one and the rest was made in a factory."
Still, to make phones like this they need appropriate technology and years of development, they need supply lines.
All of that! For such a thing to happen at least some information should have leaked! Advanced technology like this appearing out of the blue is simply not heard of!
It's almost like magic!
"Can we learn more about this genius who created this phone?"
The reporters proceeded to grill the devil heiress, who was prepared for them.
The journalist didn't even realise that all the questions they asked were not their original ones. Not even once did they mention other companies or competitors.
Or what they will think. Latia made sure they only asked questions which made them look good, especially her boyfriend's genius.
Why not? She knows Marcus' parents will watch this so she needs to show them how much she likes him. It will go the extra mile if she does that on TV.
~~~~~~Later, Evening~~~~~~
It was quiet in the living room. Marcus with his pair of girls were sitting silently waiting for his mother to wake up.
"If she passed out from such a simple thing. How are you going to explain the rest?" Athena commented while sipping her tea.
While Roland was drinking his beer, Marcus and Athena were enjoying tea.
"That's why you are here."
"...I am not the Goddess of emotions. My domains are more towards Strategists and Scholars. However, I will try to do my best."
"That's fine."
Athena ended up leaning her head on Marcus' shoulder. If not for the strangeness of this situation it would look quite a romantic evening.
However, the mother of the Alchemist ended up snoozing off since she was after work.
"...Master, it appears you won't be able to speak with her until morning." His assistant pointed out.
"Yes. Do us a favour and take her upstairs. I am going to sleep as well."
There was a glint in Quinella's eyes. She smiled and nodded at his commands.
"As you wish."
The silver-haired platinum beauty used her Psionic powers to lift his mother and take her upstairs.
Funny how his father already went to watch TV upstairs in the bedroom.
He was most likely asleep as well, after all the crazy experiences he went through.
"Anyway. I will be returning tomorrow, depending on your mother's schedule. For now, I have to return to Olympus."
Marcus nodded at her, and then he remembered what he sensed today at school.
"Fine by me, I will text you. Oh, and since Ares has blessed me. I could sense that your uncle, the one living underground, was plotting something.
His urge for war has been growing."
"!"
Athena pushed her glasses up. Her look turned serious.
"I will discuss that with my father. Knowing his paranoia, he will watch Hades extra carefully." She said that with a matter-of-fact tone. Something both of them can trust, and that is Zeus and his paranoia.
"Very well. That's something I can trust about him as well. If not I can deal with him myself. Though it depends on where his urge for war is directed."
"Thinking of using that to your advantage?" The Goddess asked with a smirk.
"You know me well on that. I can't say no to research material."
"Yes. I suppose, but I have to go."
Marcus nodded and proceeded to help her with leaving his home.
Thanks to his strong barriers even a Goddess is treated like a normal girl.
As the pair left only Quinella was left who smirked from ear to ear. The beauty proceeded to walk to Marcus' room and got into his bed.
It was time for her to wait for his return. Once he is back they can do something naughty!
~~~~~~Lemon~~~~~~
Around thirty minutes later when Marcus returned to his room he saw Quinella sitting there, on his bed with a smile, as her fingers were playing with her hair.
"Master~ I was waiting for you~" She spoke with a purring voice. His assistant has 'suffered' a lot.
Yep, the platinum silver beauty calls it suffering, as she was not around her creator. It was the greatest torture to date for her.
This is why she is going to make sure she recovers as much as she can!
His reaction to her was a small smile, he knew what she wanted.
So he ended up sitting on the bed, and she swiftly ended up sitting on his lap, while facing him.
"Does the Master want his assistant to help him with his rest? It's her job and duty~" Quinella proceeded to speak in the third person. Her voice was sultry and suggestive.
"Hmm, I suppose, I do need to rest." His hands went to her considerable breasts. He slowly proceeded to undress her.
His beautiful assistant was dressed in her military uniform. She was all prim and proper-looking 'evil officer'. The way she is dressed gives one vibe of a sadist commander lady who will whip someone into obedience.
However, in front of him, she is an obedient little puppy who wants to be pampered.
Marcus proceeded to undo the buttons, his actions were slow which made Quinella once again struggle, she wanted to lunge and proceed to kiss him.
But he was enjoying this far too much. Once the last button was done, he slowly removed her uniform top. Leaving with an undershirt which he slowly lifted, he was able to see her breasts hidden behind a bra.
His finger slowly slipped behind and with a simple finger motion, he undid the bra, letting her breasts loose.
Once they were free his hands proceeded to start fondling those delicious globes.
"Mhhnnn~~~ Maybe you should undress me first properly before you start doing this?" Quinella suggested to him as she started to feel it. He only just started but she was raring to go.
The obvious reason was that she was itching to return to his side for days.
And now she was feeling all giddy about this.
"Now, Now, I will do this anyway I want~," He said in a matter-of-fact tone as he leaned forward and started to kiss and suck on those nipples.
"O-Of course~" Her breathing only got hotter from his actions.
He played with her breasts for a bit before he removed her undershirt and bra, by this point his beautiful assistant top was naked.
His gaze marvelled at her for a bit before he leaned forward and proceeded to kiss her lips.
Quinella's eyes turned misty as she answered his kiss with extra passion.
Her hands proceeded to explore his top as she proceeded to undress him as well.
Doing that means that the kiss was interrupted.
"What's with such a hurry? I thought you were helping me rest?" He teased her with his question as his hand went down to her rear and squeezed one of her cheeks.
"Haahh~ it's hard to resist you, Master~" She said with glassy eyes. Lust has almost completely overtaken her.
"I see~"
As he said that he made her stand up. Which she followed without hesitation.
His hands went to her waist and proceeded to undress the last remaining pieces of her clothing.
He pulled her skirt down alongside her panties.
She just like that she was fully naked.
"...Let me help you with your clothes~ Master~" She pushed him onto the bed, and then got on top of him.
The platinum silver-haired beauty proceeded to swiftly undress her Master.
Unlike him, her actions were very quick, this showed him how horny she was and how much she needed him.
Once he was naked Quinella sat down on his waist and proceeded to rub his hardening tool with her pussy lips.
This alone made her softly moan in desire. He could see how needy she was.
"Yes~ leave everything to me~"
"Hmm? You won't knock out everyone? I shouldn't worry?" Marcus teased her as he remembered what happened last time.
An embarrassed blush appeared on her face as she pouted at him.
"I have been practising. It won't happen again!"
With such promising words, his hands went to her waist and pulled her up positioning his rod at her pussy entrance he pushed her down.
Quinella lewdly moaned when his tool sunk into her velvet cave.
To feel more she pushed herself down to the base with a single stroke.
"Aghh~~ that's it!"
Feeling it up more she moved her waist forward and back, several times before she proceeded to move up and down.
Her body trembled from pleasure as she felt the beauty.
This was what she wanted to do for days.
After tasting this there is no way she can't stop doing this! So this is a perfect opportunity!
Slowly her speed started to pick up as a wet smacking sound started to spread through his room.
The beauty was going faster and faster as her gaze was right on her Master who was looking back at her.
With a lewd smile, she grabbed his hands and then placed them on her assets. This was to make sure he could feel her properly.
Once it was set she proceeded to move once again.
This time around Quinella was slightly slower as Marcus was teasing her breasts.
The pleasure only kept growing which made her movement slow down.
Her Master noticed that and increased the amount of teasing.
"Aghh~~~ No~~~ W-Wait!"
Some drool escaped from her mouth as her silver eyes widened, and her back arched. The beauty just experienced a climax!
"N-Noooo~"
With a smirk, he flipped her over. Now he was on the top.
"Let me properly remind you why I am your Master~" He teased her once more.
But this tease made her spine shiver and hornier.
He slammed his cock into her syrupy pussy. The smack made her gnash her teeth from the sheer pleasure she was feeling.
This was only the first stroke as he proceeded to move in and out of her velvet cave.
This time around her moans were loud and full of passion, as this session was turning more animalistic with each stroke.
A few short moments later Quinella experienced her second and third climaxes.
When he saw that it was time to wrap this up, Marcus lifted her legs and pressed down on her in a mating press.
The beauty's expression turned silly as she could feel his thing in the deepest parts of her pussy.
With a few hard thrusts, he released into her depths.
The overload of pleasure made her eyes roll up as she passed out.
"..."
"..."
"...It appears she was right, she didn't release a psionic burst."
Marcus was pleasantly surprised at how well his assistant had developed.
~~~~~~Later, Underworld~~~~~~
"This is troubling. If what you said is true, then something is developing which we don't know." Sirzechs said with a pondering frown.
Rizevim is gone and the residue which they found is divine but it had the attribute of darkness to it. So a dark God of some sort attacked him, or ambushed and now Serafall is telling him that Marcus has predicted an attack on the Devil Kind?
"Yes. Marcus did say that something is on the horizon." Serafall explained some more with a frown of her own.
"Right on time when we are planning a peace treaty. How… classic." The Crimson Satan with a forced smile joked as he looked through his office window.
"It's not time to joke about this, Sirzechs," Grayfia said with a frown of her own.
"I know, I know. We need to mobilise and be ready for anything.
I am going to see Ajuka and see if he has anything."
After saying that, Sirzechs left the office, leaving Grayfia and Serafall behind.
"...What is going on? I haven't seen Master for a while." The maid whispered to Serafall after walking over.
"He was blessed by Ares to feel when war is coming and he just saw that."
"...I see…this is troubling."
"It is. I have an ominous feeling about this."
The 'Queen' of Lucifer slowly nodded. Something big is coming and they have no idea what it is.
~~~
A black-haired woman dressed in a black dress was looking down on a castle.
This was the old Satan faction's headquarters.
"They thought they were smart. But this is the Underworld. We have been here far longer than they have been." A girl dressed in gothic clothes said with a grin to the other black-dressed woman.
Absurd black energy radiates from the gothic-dressed girl with elfish ears. She lifted her hand and darkness consumed the whole area. Turning the place into a pitch darkness akin to the night itself.
"Let's go."
"Hmm…"
The pair of women descended to the castle.
As they arrived the devil forces were mobilised already.
"What is the meaning of this!? Who are you?" The brown-haired woman asked with an arrogant voice.
"...Leviathan…" The woman with a black dress said with a monotonous voice.
"That is correct. That weakling is a descendant of Leviathan. Oh, how 'mighty' has fallen." The gothic girl said with a mocking grin.
"Who are you two!?" The brown-haired woman who can be identified as a descendant of Leviathan snapped angrily.
"Calm yourself Katerea, that girl is a God." The man next to Katerea said with a nervous look.
"Hahaha, me? A God? You have a death wish little bat. If you can't recognise a Primordial then why should you be alive?"
"...P-Primordial!? Y-Y-You are Nyx!!!"
"Hahaha, what a reaction! However, we are not here to discuss my greatness. Do you see this woman next to me?" Nyx pointed at the spacey woman who was dressed in a black dress and lush black hair reaching her waist. She had no shoes or anything, only a dress but the power this woman was radiating was massive.
"This is Lilith! Your ancestor and she is here to collect what is hers." Nyx enjoyed the pure shock of these Devils!
"Lilith!?"
"She is still alive!?"
"What do you mean collect what is hers!?" Katerea and the other man, Shalba Beelzebub, looked with concern. They felt dread!
"Lilith. Proceed." Nyx motioned to do it.
"...Leviathan…Beelzebub…Asmodeus…" Lilith with a monotonous voice pointed her hand palm at the devils.
A black aura surged from her as a beam of black water rushed towards the devils.
The group of devils' eyes widened as they tried to dodge but Nyx grinned with a sadistic glee as her darkness pinned all the devils with minimal effort.
Then this black water swallowed all the devils, melting them away, turning them into energy and water.
Once that was done the water returned to Lilith and merged with her.
As this has happened Lilith's eyes had more life now.
"...How is it? You feel stronger now." Nyx asked curiously.
"I am… I can use their powers now." Lilith said that with an indifferent voice as she showed how she could control black water now.
"...Perfect… hahaha…. You can now give traits of original Satans!" Nyx almost danced seeing this. Now their forces are even stronger.
'Hahaha, this is getting exciting! Let's see how well you fare against this, Marcus Goldman!'
"Now let's collect the stranglers. Maybe we will find someone interesting." The gothic girl with a grin looked at the castle, Lilith nodded as the pair proceeded to descend towards the ground.
It was time to clean the stranglers!
~~~
"That Azazel! How stupid is he!? I can't believe he is planning peace!" A man dressed like a nobleman threw items from his table on the ground from sheer anger.
This was Kokabiel, one of the Cadre Fallen Angels. He was one of the highest-ranking people in the Fallen Angel faction. This Fallen never got over the fact that war had halted before any of the enemy factions could have been destroyed.
That moment on the table in a flash of blue flames a letter appeared.
"...That signature."
Kokabiel for a second forgot his anger and walked over and took the letter. He proceeded to read through it.
"..."
"..."
"...."
"Hahaha… if we won't wage war then there is no need for me to be here!"
The Fallen Angel proceeded to laugh as he finally found people who were willing to fight his common enemies!
"Very well! In that case."
A sickly yellow circle appeared underneath his feet as he was teleported away.
Second, he appeared in front of the entrance to a large cave.
This was the entrance into the depths of the Underworld. The true hell.
As he walked deeper a portal opened for him. Kokabiel grinned for a second as he passed through it.
Where he appeared was the depths of hell, in front of him was a castle, it was menacing, built from the darkest of material, something akin to obsidian.
Once he entered the castle, the fallen walked to the throne room where he found Hades waiting for him.
"Kokabiel."
"Lord Hades, I wasn't expecting a letter from you, of all beings." The Fallen Angel was shocked, to say the least, that a Greek God like Hades would want to meet him like this! Especially the content of that letter!
"Hmm, the circumstances are special. I want to ask you this. Do you want to wage war on Devil Kind?"
A feral grin appeared on Kokabiel's face.
"...I am."
"...Then are you willing to join my forces? I can promise you soldiers, resources and much more. All I ask is to cause confusion and shatter whatever alliance the Fallen Angels and Devils are building." Hades smoothly proposed.
"Hahaha! Fine! I didn't want that alliance either!"
"Neither did I. However, there is one thing you must be aware of, do not engage anyone in the Human world, that is my only requirement. If you wish to fight devils you have to do it in the Underworld."
"Hmm. That is fine. The fastest way to start the war is to attack Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri."
"True. But this would involve a third faction."
"...Oh… of course. Marcus Goldman. I have heard some crazy rumours about him." Kokabiel nearly laughed when he said that. He remembered that Greeks were involved with Marcus Goldman.
If that human has Artemis as a Maid, then he has some serious firepower.
"You are not wrong. But to deal with Marcus Goldman first we have to deal with the puppets.
Attack Devils, cause some chaos. Delay the peace treaty, do that and my Underworld will support you."
As Hades said that he motioned with his hand and pitch-black armour appeared floating in blue flames.
"This armour is forged in the depths of hell, with the help of Angra Mainyu, it's empowered by Ddraig's and Albion's flames.
It's poisonous to everyone who is not its wielder."
Kokabiel's eyes widened. Hades just dropped a bunch of wild names!
"...Angra Mainyu assisted in this creation?" Angra Mainyu is one of the earliest ever known 'crazy scientist' types. So it's not a surprise that it could make an armour of this!
"That is correct. I have several powerful gods who are on my side and assisting in preparations for this war. The question is will you take this armour? It will improve your fighting capacities. This is to make sure no one stays in your way to declare war on Devil Kind." Hades explained with a casual tone.
"...And the side effects of such armour?"
"It will feed on your negative desires. A warning, don't get overwhelmed by them. You wouldn't like the results of that happening." The Greek God of the Underworld warned his newest 'ally'.
Kokabiel snorted. As if something like that will stop him!
While the Fallen snorted, Hades' flaming eyes slightly narrowed. One could say he was looking down on the Fallen Angel.
This however is hard to read when the God is all skeletal and doesn't have proper facial features.
"That's good enough. I suppose extra power doesn't sound bad."
Kokabiel walked over and took the armour. He could feel this thing merging with him. Like liquid metal.
A smile crept on Hades' lips, as the scheme worked.
"Since you agreed to my conditions you can take any minions we have here. I suggest any of Angra Mainyu's toys. My fellow God wants his creations to be tested out before the main war."
"Very well."
~~~
After Kokabiel left, from the shadows Eberus walked out, he had a frown on his face.
"Was it wise to give him that armour? I thought we were keeping our assets until the time was right."
"Hehehe, this is not one of our main armours, Erebus." Angra Mainyu walked out from a shadow as well. His flaming eyes flicked with glee.
"Then?"
"That armour is built specifically for Kokabiel to face devils. The armour's true purpose is for Kokabiel to be overwhelmed by negative desires until I can take full control over him.
None of us truly trusted that Crow."
"...And?"
"Lilith's essence is infused with it. In the end that armour's end goal is to fuse with one of the two remaining Super Devils."
Erebus finally understood. This was a Trojan horse.
"Yes, so you understood. We need Sirzechs…the moment we have him we will take his Power of Destruction. Once we wield it we will be closer to Marcus Goldman's power!"
Angra Mainyu who started to see Marcus as his greatest rival said with glee, Hades nodded at his associate's words.
Only Erebus frowned at this. He was annoyed! Hades, Nyx and now Angra Mainyu are obsessed with this human! Just how low they all are going to fall!?
How could a single human cause such a commotion!? These pesky mortals are a temporary existence, they come and go. Their lives are so short that a Primordial like him doesn't even remember another human's name!
Yet, now this human rose through ranks, and even ended up engaged to a Goddess! From his pantheon! No less! Such a crime has to be punished. A temporary existence aiming for something only a God or Primordial such touch.
Simply unforgivable.
However, it was different for Angra Mainyu. The Evil God of Zoroastrianism sees Marcus as a rival, a rival in creation. It has been many years since he was this excited. This is exciting to face a creator of this calibre.
The Evil God was very grateful that Hades pointed him towards his new rival.
Now, all that is left is for them to release their creations and see how they will fight! May the best creator be victorious!
"Hahaha! Let the war of worlds begin! hahaha!" Angra Mainyu started to laugh uncontrollably as he sensed that Kokabiel had already started to gather his minions!
Fallen are on the move to cause chaos and destruction in Devil's territories. Now it's only a matter of time.
