"Fate. I need someone's Fate. Someone who is important. Someone who is strong and mighty, who will rise far above the others and grasp for the stars. I need to find the fate of an hero. Only such a strong fate could survive inside the body I created. I won't let Diana down. I will succeed. “

-From Jeff Rutherions 'How I raised the Strongest!'

* Sirius POV *

I may have made a great mistake.

The whole rape situation between Doro and Kasai was strange enough, but seeing them together now is even worse. It seems like they entered a romantic relationship...

I think?

They fight a lot, but also spent every minute not fighting hugging and being all lovey-dovey. I don't know why, but I feel incredibly irritated by that scene.

Just imagine an over three metre tall Ogre, who rubs his nose against a 1,5 metre tall girl. It's kinda creepy to be honest. Actually I shouldn't complain, should I? I mean after all, I'm technically dating a thirty metre tall spider.

Actually I'm married to her.

I'm kinda happy to see Saxin to be honest. It's not like we know each other a lot or anything, but I DO enjoy talking to he-

"So you just abandoned your comrades?" (Rot)

"Heeeeeh? I didn't actually like them you know?" (Kaze)

"Should we really trust someone like him?" (Grau)

"If we trust the retard who marries spiders and spends more time inside his head than outside, I think we can trust this Guy as well." (Schwarz)

"Don't say that! Saxin is a very friendly spider-person!" (Rot)

"Also don't call master a retard!" (Grau)

"Actually I agree with that point..." (Rot)

"Now that you mention it..." (Grau)

"I once heard you could brew a powerful potion out of fairy-wings. I should try that." (Sirius)

"…You wouldn't do that, right master?" (Grau)

"Remember when he made Doro eat his own liver?" (Rot)

"...That was kinda funny." (Schwarz)

"Doro CRY!" (Doro)

"Don't worry my big Boobear, I'll make sure he won't do something like that again!" (Kasai)

"…" (Sirius)

After punishing Kasai for saying such insolent words to me her Master, we continue to walk deeper into the City of Spiders. I want to visit Saxin and also turn that Aya Clone into a linked Undead. I need more sane followers to run around and collect souls for me. I won't take part in this whole 'Village-Attack' thing any more. It's just way to dangerous. I will at least reach my next evolution before risking my un-life like that again.

"Oh my god! Can you stop crying already?" (Rot)

"B- b- but h- he...sniff" (Kasai)

"Hee- Heeeeeh? I think I made a dumb decision." (Kaze)

"That was too much master..." (Grau)

"...That was kinda funny." (Schwarz)

"Doro PASSIVE AGGRESIVE SILENCE!" (Doro)

Also, if I send them out I won't have to deal with their babbling any longer.

We finally arrive at the very centre of this city and enter Saxins Black Cocoon. Is it me or does that name kinda sound erotic? Like some sex toy. Anyway, I'm quickly met with a few spiders that get out of my way as soon as they notice who I am. I of course notice that some of them look at me with disdain in their eyes. Snatching their queen away from them made them angry I guess.

After sending the others away I enter Saxins private chamber.

"Saxin, I'm ba-" (Sirius)

Before I'm even able to finish my sentence, Saxin grabs me with one of her enormous hands and brings me in front of her six eyes.

"Fufufu, it's been so long Sirius! I was really worried about you my dear..." (Saxin)

I kinda hang there and swing forwards and backwards. This position is kinda... embarrassing?

"Is that so? Well I'm just fine. I lost a couple of your spiders though." (Sirius)

"Hm? Oh don't worry about that. Since you need some pawns I just told the soldiers to reproduce faster!" (Saxin)

Is that the real reason why the spiders earlier looked at me with disdain? Are they upset about me using them? I really need to craft my own army as soon as possible. I feel like a big problem could appear in the future otherwise.

"Anyway, where's that girl we captured? I want to link her." (Sirius)

"…Don't you want to spent a bit more time with me? Let's talk about what happened on you little adventure!" (Sirius)

"Hm? Well, I guess we can talk for a bit." (Sirius)

So I told Saxin what happened and how I used the stone which the Demon-King gave me to collect souls. Strangely enough, the thing she wanted to know the most about was the relationship between Kasai and Doro. This old Spider Aspect sometimes behaves like a little girl when it comes to romantic stuff...

"Was it really necessary to punish her like that? That was way to harsh my dear..." (Saxin)

"Hm? It's not like she'll die form it or anything, right?" (Sirius)

"Well, yes but still... poor girl" (Saxin)

"Anyway, I'm going to the prison. She's in the last cell you said?" (Sirius)

"Exactly my dear, have fun! I love you~" (Saxin)

"I know, you already told me that. See ya." (Sirius)

"…" (Saxin)

Hm? She kinda seems sad again. Well, I have more important stuff to do than figuring out why. I walk towards the cells underneath the Black Cocoon and greet the spider who guards this underground prison.

Actually, the whole city is underground.

So that would make this prison under-underground?

I don't think that's actually a word though...

I look for the last cell and move towards it. Inside I can see the High Fae who looks exactly like Aya. She is hanging upside down above the ground and is tied up with some weird black chains that make sure she can't use any power. I enter the cell after telling the guard to open it up and greet her.

"Hey, long time not seen, huh? How are you doing? Not very well I would guess." (Sirius)

She looks me in the eyes for a few seconds and then quickly averts them. Besides Saxin no one manages to look into those glowing orbs for more then a couple seconds. It makes them feel 'cold' they always say.

"Fuck you! What do you want? Are you here to torture me? Finish me off? Show me what you got!" (Alleria)

"Hm? Well, kinda. I'm here to link you to me. You are going to be a great slave." (Sirius)

"I'd rather stay dead than to serve you!" (Alleria)

"Oh, don't worry. It's not your soul that is going to serve me. You can burn with all the other at the black flame." (Sirius)

"What?" (Alleria)

"Hm? Is that fear I see in your eyes? How sweet. To see an X-Rank fear me is such a great sight! Anyway, in case no one told you, I eat souls. I don't absorb them like Necromancers, no you won't be gone. You'll burn. Forever." (Sirius)

"B- but you said you'll link me to you!" (Alleria)

"I meant you body! Your soul will be replaced with this beautiful thing." (Sirius)

I take out the small ring which is filled with many souls.

"The Item description once mentioned that an consciousness dwells within this ring. I hope to get it out by shoving it into your body. I really wonder what I'll find inside." (Sirius)

"N- no... please!" (Alleria)

"But first..." (Sirius)

I take out a small knife that I took with me.

"What are you planning to do with that?" (Alleria)

"Your face is kinda disturbing to me. You look a lot like someone I like so I'll get rid of it." (Sirius)

"Wa- wait! That someone is my sister! We are sisters! Mercy!" (Alleria)

"Are you guys? Well I don't care." (Sirius)

"N- no please don't! I'll behave I'll b- AHHH!" (Alleria)

Hm, maybe I should have killed her first? Well now I already started so... let's try to ignore those awful scream, shall we?

…

I'm kinda having fun here!

* Third Person POV *

"What?! Three of them dead?! How?!" (Prince)

"My Prince please calm yourself! According to the two survives one of the elementals betrayed the others! But the strange thing is... that he was killed only a few minutes later." (Servant)

"Are you serious? It was Kaze, wasn't it?! This fucking bastard was always broken in the head!" (Prince)

"Maybe now we should fight this Necromancer with our military? I know the Lady's death hurt you deeply sir but maybe we should... “

"NO! NEVER! We will keep searching for her killer and that's IT!" (Prince)

"I may have an idea brother Julius" (???)

The Prince and his servant quickly turn around to look at third person at the table.

"Denolius! I'm sorry I totally forgot about you..." (Prince)

"That's fine brother." (Blessed Soul)

"You no longer have to call me that... now that our wife is gone." (Prince)

"Nonsense! You will forever stay my brother!" (Blessed Soul)

"Denolius..." (Prince)

"How about this, brother: take a few soldiers and look for the Necromancer yourself! With your strength he should not be a threat. I'll take over the job of searching for this murderer!" (Blessed Soul)

"Hm? I guess that would be fine..." (Prince)

"My majesty, is it really a good idea to give your military power to this man?" (Servant)

"Insolent Fool! How dare you doubt my dear brother! Shut up! We will do exactly what you said Denolius! I'll tell the generals!" (Prince)

"Thanks for your trust brother!" (Blessed Soul)

The prince ran out of the room and the servant quickly followed after him.

"...What an idiot you are." (Blessed Soul)
