Chereads / Jumping Through the Omniverse as a Conduit / Chapter 166 - Chapter 165 - Reward for Loyalty

Chapter 166 - Chapter 165 - Reward for Loyalty

AN: Several of you asked what some of my new ideas were, here are two of them.

1) MC reincarnates with the knowledge and skills of Tony Stark with aspirations of traveling the stars as a Space Mercenary. Unfortunately for him, he initially reincarnates in a fantasy world where most men are treated like utter garbage. To achieve his goal of reaching the stars, the MC has to grind his way through dungeons and politics to get the materials he needs to do so. Along the way, he makes friends (and several lovers) before leaving that world to explore the star. Once he is out there though, he will discover that being a Space Mercenary is not as simple as he thought it would be.

(Fusion Universe, mainly based on The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs and Reborn as a Space Mercenary: I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship!) Note: There will be other fantasy elements and space-faring groups involved, but it is mainly based on those two.

2) MC reincarnated as Bojacks in the One Piece Universe.

(This one is solely based on Dragon Ball and One Piece) Note: In this case, I would have to brave the terror of watching the entire anime to understand the story. At this point, I know more about Bojack than One Piece, and he only had a single movie. My knowledge of One Piece is very limited...as in I know most women are curvy as hell and many people have broken powers for their world.)

Let me know what your honest opinions are.

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You are better off killing us, we will tell you nothing!", one of the bandits shouted, thrashing around trying to break free from the chains that bound him to the wall, "We were dead men the moment you captured us."

"Yeah, you tell them!!", another bandit cheered, "That old fucker, the smelly Beastwoman, and you can all go fuck yourselves!"

Gripping his cane tightly, Sauros looked like a raging volcano on the brink of eruption. Suggesting that he vent some of his anger on all of them, he shook his head saying he could not do that. Believing that he would lose himself in rage if he began harming them, I told him to not worry about that as I could make their corpses talk for us.

"Cole, I may not be a mage, but I know for certain that magic like that only exists in legend.", Sauros refuted, thinking that I was starting to lose it, "If such magic existed, those who wielded it would be set for life. Every country would have mages like that to aid their Intelligence Divisions in gathering crucial information."

"I think you have the wrong impression of Necromancy, most Necromancers I know are disliked by many for their craft. People tend not to like those that speak with dead spirits and create undead familiars from the corpses of their loved ones.", I remarked, having seen many respectable Necromancers become hermits to escape persecution, "Anyways, I can assure you I can make the dead spill their secrets to us. If you are still doubtful, just take your anger out on one of them and leave the rest alone. If I fail, we have six more bandits to torture."

Agreeing to my compromise, he stared each man down one by one looking for something. Watching each of them flinch under his gaze, Sauros stopped in front of the biggest man in the group who did not react in the slightest to him. Nodding his head in satisfaction, after he could not elicit a response from him for a brief time, he handed his cane over to Ghislaine.

"The way I see it, killing the most stubborn of them will save us time either way. If my family is under attack, I want to extract the information I need as quickly and painfully as possible!", Sauros stated, pushing a button on the handle of the cane.

Hold the lower half of his cane firmly for him, Ghislaine smirked as he pulled out the hidden blade contained within the cane. Turning back to the bandit, a powerful bloodlust began to radiate from Sauros' body as blood vessels on his temples began to bulge.

"The six of you watch this closely…", Sauros growled, glaring at the other bandits, "If I find out that you are involved with Eris' kidnapping a few months ago, your deaths will be twice as gruesome."

Wasting no time getting to work, the first thing he did was cut the man's stomach open with a swift slash to the gut. Laughing at the initial blow he was given, Sauros' rage flared up as he began swinging his sword around like a madman. Unable to shield his vulnerable places due to his chains, within moments we watched both of his eyes and manhood were torn to pieces. Pepper his comrades with bits and pieces of him, three of them began to vomit in disgust all while the bandit started foaming at the mouth.

"You had a death wish laying your hands on my granddaughter!", Sauros roared, his voice reverberating throughout the home, "I hope whatever god you worship casts you into the abyss and lets you burn for all eternity!"

Letting him continue venting his anger out on the man, it took him almost ten minutes to start losing steam. Retrieving a towel for him to wipe the blood off his face and sword, Ghislaine told him to quit now before he had a heart attack. Heeding her words, with a much more relaxed mentality now, Sauros stepped back to look at his handiwork. The once tall, muscular man now looked like he had lost a fight with Wolverine as there were bits of him all over half of the room.

"I am sorry you had to see that.", Sauros remarked, graciously accepting the towel from Ghislaine, "Since Philip is no longer here to exact vengeance for his daughter, I had to do it as her grandfather. Normally I would never go this far, but…Hilda and Eris are all I have left in this world now. Just the thought of slimy men like them laying hands on her…it makes me want to go on a rampage."

"You and I share that sentiment, our children and grandchildren mean more to us than our own lives. We would throw it all away to save them and would not hesitate to die so they can live.", I told him, placing a hand on his shoulder, "Now then, let us see what he knows about what is currently happening and about Eris' kidnapping attempt."

Invoking the spell Speak with Dead, an ominous, dark aura quickly engulfed the man. Watching his lifeless corpse begin to twitch violently, green flames appeared in his eye sockets as he looked at me waiting for my first question. Staring at the Undead in disbelief, everyone finally acknowledged that Necromancy was real.

"I…I think I understand what you mean now…", Sauros said, feeling a sense of disgust and dread come over him, "So what do-"

Covering his mouth before he could finish his question, I told him to let me do the talking as it would disrupt the spell otherwise. Agreeing to leave it to me, as he was uncomfortable with speaking to a corpse, I began interrogating him.

"You were sent here this evening, not by the King, but by Prime Minister Darius and James Boreas Greyrat.", I stated, "Why do they both want him dead?"

"Darius wants him gone because…he is a threat to…the other nobles and…his position. He wants people to…continue suffering for years to come…but Sauros Boreas Greyrat is in…the way.", the corpse said, "James is…just following along to keep…his Minister positions and takeover…the Boreas Greyrat fortune."

Staring at their colleague in utter shock, the other bandits realized I really could get information out of him. Realizing the implications of what this meant, all of them began pleading with us to let them talk now so they could die with dignity. Shaking his head, Sauros told them that all chances for a decent death died the moment they came to his home to harm his family.

"Do Prime Minister Darius and James Boreas Greyrat have any plans for Eris Boreas Greyrat and Hilda Boreas Greyrat?", I inquired, wanting to get straight to the point.

"Eris will be offered up to Darius as a Sex Slave for his aid once she is found. Hilda may be killed, but could also be used as a Sex Slave to entice other noblemen.", the bandit said, as the spell stabilized his voice.

"Do what!?", Sauros howled, seething with newfound rage, "How dare my bastard son use Eris and Hilda for his political gain!! I refused to let the Prime Minister take Eris as a wife because she was too young and he was too old. He went behind my back and sold her off like a piece of fucking meat!! Not only that, he would use his sister-in-law as a prostitute just to garner favors from other noblemen. I cannot believe that I raised such a vile monster!"

"I think I know the answer to this, but what would happen to Eris once he gets bored of her?", I asked, wanting Sauros to understand just how vile the Prime Minister was.

"She would be killed, and dumped in the sewer.", he replied.

Unable to hear any more of this, Sauros stormed off realizing the country he thought he served was rotten to the core. A faithful loyalist to this nation, he had probably ignored any rumors circulating about his fellow noblemen and ministers. Realizing that the rumors about Darius were indeed true, the old man began to wonder how many other rumors could be true. Needing time to process this new revelation, he left the disposal of the bandits to us and headed off to his study.

"As you have all brought countless young girls to Darius already, are any of them still alive?", I questioned, hoping to save even a few of them from a horrible fate.

"Yes, they are in the Prime Minister's Basement. There is a hidden door behind a wall of empty wine barrels.", the bandit said, as the spell dissipated making his corpse lifeless once again.

Pulling out my phone, I called Spawn to give him a heads-up that I had seven souls for him to burn. Telling me that he was busy at the moment, fighting an Angel or something, I told him that the souls I wanted burned belonged to pedophiles.

"I know these types of scumbags hold a special place in your heart, I was hoping to hand them over to you.", I explained to him.

"Hold on…that changes things.", Spawn replied, "Give me a minute, I will be right over."

Ending the call, a dark portal opened on the wall a few feet from Ghislaine and me. Stepping out of the portal with an overwhelming bloodlust, Ghislaine faltered as she could not cope with his immense anger. Wrapping her arm over my shoulder so she could witness this, I pointed to the men locked up on the wall and said they were the men responsible.

"So you seven enjoy terrorizing young children…I got a special place in hell for fuckers like you.", Spawn said, impaling the men with hooks fixed onto fiendish chains, "Monsters like you do not deserve reincarnation, all of you deserve to burn in the pits of hell till your bodies become part of the ashy ground. Once you do, I will make sure to take a nice like piss on your remains! Come on you fuckers, I do not have all day!"

With a single tug of the chains, all seven bodies were ripped off the wall and fell to the floor. Using a Ressurection Spell on the dead man, I ensured that he would not miss out on all the festivities that were coming his way.

"I said move fuckers!", Spawn spat, whipping them through the portal, "Do not forget, you owe me Cole."

"I know Spawn, I will make sure to you your booze this evening.", I stated, "If you need help killing that Angel, just let me know! I got plenty of weapons to kill Divine Beings!"

"I can handle it, but thanks for the offer.", he remarked, closing the portal behind him.

Once he was gone, Ghislaine let out a loud gasp as she began gulping down air. Looking at me with a mix of horror and fear, she asked me exactly who I was as that man looked like the Devil to her.

"You are not far off, he is the King of Hell.", I chuckled, patting her on the shoulder, "Now then, I am going to rescue those young girls from the Prime Minister. Once I am done, we storm the castle and take Darius' head no matter how many guards we have to kill to get to him."

"Understood, I will be ready.", Ghislaine agreed, more than ready to get revenge for Eris' kidnapping.
