*Pantidrop Palace Vitamor’s POV*
Dani, Sylvie, and Camellia all walked over towards me after Silthis dropped the p-bomb. Xenova just stood back and seemed to be remembering something bad. I stood up and walked past the girls and stood in front of her. Her expression was one of fear and sadness. It caused my heart to ache. She was staring off into space and didn’t even notice me standing in front of her.
Xylnick walked up to me and put a hand on my shoulder again, “She is your slave, you can save her from this torment.” I looked up at him, “What do you mean?” He smiled, “Branding someone as your slave gives you complete control over them. You choose whether they live or die. You can even choose to erase memories. It is a function that is great for still being served during secret meetings and not risking the chance of information leaking out.”
I widened my eyes at the information and then instantly thought about what it would mean to lose my memories. I looked at the other three girls and thought about what my life would be like if I didn’t have any memories of them. I sighed and then put my hand on Xenova’s cheek. Her eyes became a little clearer and she looked at me. I smiled at her, “I can relieve you of all those horrible memories and all of the pain, but I want to know if you want me to.”
Her eyes started to tear up, “You can do that master?” I nodded my head, “I can remove them all.” She grabbed my hand, that was still on her cheek, with both of her hands, “Please master, relieve me of my nightmares.” I smiled and then kissed her on the cheek, “You wish is my command.” I actually let out such a corny line, but the smile on her face blossomed even further so it was completely worth it.
Xylnick told me how to activate the Emblem and I did exactly as he said. A window appeared in my view.

Share…
The menu was pretty straight forward, but I shivered at the fact that I literally could end her life by pushing a button. There were multiple dots after share which meant that it had more options. I laughed at the baby maker mode and then accessed her memories. Hundreds of thousands of memories floated through my head, from the day that she came into existence to this point in time. I was literally watching from her point of view all of the horrible and atrocious things that were done to her. I could feel the anger welling up inside of me. It turned into an unrelenting storm.
*Xylnick’s POV*
His majesty the Emperor was talking to his slave demon and asking if she wanted his help. I have only known his majesty for a little bit, but his kindheartedness towards this demon always surprised me. Demons are foul beings who kill, steal, rape and do many horrendous things to our people. I don’t understand how he could be showing the feelings that I can see in his eyes towards this demon.
Lady Dani walked up towards me and spoke, “He has a massive heart doesn’t he?” I looked down at the elf, “I don’t see how he is able to show any sort of kindness or any positive emotion to the wicked demon race. She shook her head, “He doesn’t see people based on their race, color of their skin, number of appendages, not any of that. He sees them as a living being that is just trying to survive like the rest of us.”

I shook my head, “I can understand all of that, but just based on the things she has done I can’t see anyone caring about her as much as he does.” She sighed, “I have known him for over almost two decades and he can actually understand how she feels a bit. He has only ever had me and his parents throughout his life. It’s not as sad a life as a lot of people out there, but he has been cast out by a lot of people in his life and he hates seeing people go through the same thing. The thing he hates the most is rape though.”
I saw the loving look in her eye and then I looked back at his majesty. He was going through the slave menu and actually chuckled at something. A few minutes later and I saw something I would probably never forget. His shoulders started to shake and he clenched his fists. Lady Dani instantly cursed, “Fuck! Silthis grabbed Xenova now!” Silthis had a confused look on her face, but when she saw the small amount of black aura that was starting to leek from his body she paled.
She was in her human form so when she used her web it came from her fingers. The webs stuck to Xenova, who was shivering from fright, and yanked her towards her. Xenova landed in her arms and then started to run. Lady Dani looked over towards King Lizardeous and yelled, “Evacuate the palace, now!” He looked confused but in the face of his Empress he did what he was told.
A few minutes later everybody was out of the palace and I was about to leave myself. I saw black and violet lightning bolts surrounding his majesty and when the lightning bolts struck it literally tore a hole in space revealing the void. I could feel the blood draining from my face as I left the palace and joined the others in the courtyard. I looked back towards the palace and saw that storm clouds were starting to form above it.
King Lizardeous was speaking to Lady Dani, “What is happening to his majesty?” Lady Dani looked a little grim when she spoke, “He is pissed.” I raised an eyebrow, “He gets like this when he is mad?” She shook her head, “He has gotten mad before even pissed somewhat, but I have never seen it like this. It definitely couldn’t affect the weather last time.”
Black lightning struck a tower on the palace causing it to crumble. A streak of violet lighting struck another tower doing the same thing. Xenova spoke up, “He really did it. I can’t remember anything bad up to the point of becoming master’s slave!” We all looked at her and then Lady Dani spoke up again, “You mean he is actually conscious right now!?” I looked at her, “His majesty usually isn’t in control when he gets pissed like this?” She shook her head, “No, normally us girls have to bring him back to reality.
There was a loud roar that sounded like a dragon that came from the palace. It caused everybody under the rank of God to fall to their knees at a minimum. My knee hit the ground and the pressure from that roar made it hard to breath. I don’t even need to breathe for god’s sake and it felt like I couldn’t. After the roar there was another roar that sounded out, “Lucifer! I am going to kill you!”

His majesty burst through the front doors of the palace and they completely disintegrated. There was a pitch black aura around him still and his eyes were changing colors. They went from violet to red, green, blue, and many other colors. I was extremely shocked at the fact that his majesties power shot up to God Rank and that he had control over so many elements. He was walking across the ground and the stone was cracking with every step he took.
He stopped at the top of the stairs looked down at us and then briefly smiled. He then looked up into the sky. His eyes changed to a black color and he yelled again, “LUCIFER!!” The yell this time was many times louder and even I had to cover my ears. His words echoed a couple of times and then the world went quiet, literally. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
*Center of the Universe*
There was an extremely beautiful man with feathery wings that were black as night standing in front of a throne. He was lashing a demon whose was already unconscious. The demon’s back was splayed open and you could almost see the back of his ribs. A normal human would have already died ten times over by now. The man laughed as he hit the back of the demon again with the whip. “LUCIFER!!” The room that the man was in started to shake and rocks fell from the roof. He stopped mid-swing and looked towards the direction the sound came from. He had a slight trace of confusion and fear before it almost instantly disappeared. He shook his head and smiled before he went back to beating on the already unconscious demon.
*Pantidrop Palace Courtyard Vitamor’s POV*
I yelled out towards the stars and I could feel the anger subsiding some and the excess power coming from [Wrath of the Asura] started to go away. What shocked me is that I didn’t lose my consciousness and that I could partially control it. My aura went completely away and when I felt that my body was back to normal there was a thump on my chest. I looked down and saw that Xenova had plastered herself in my bosom and was crying.
She was wailing, “Master! Thank you so much master! I can’t remember anything bad no matter how hard I try I can’t remember anything bad before becoming your slave.” Her tears were staining my shirt, but I didn’t care right now. I rubbed my hand across her head, “You don’t have to thank me silly.” She looked up at me, “You took away those bad memories though. I can’t remember anything bad, even when I think of perverted things my body doesn’t react badly!”
I turned a little red when she mentioned perverted things, but I still looked down at her with a smile. She instantly smiled at me and then in almost an instant her lips met mine. I was so shocked that I fell backwards and she landed on top of me. Her kiss was so passionate that I could feel my dick start to rise up in salute. She noticed this and started to pull it out. I grabbed her hands, “Wait not here.” She stopped and looked at me and then looked around. She saw all of the people staring at us and instantly turned red.
She quickly helped me up and tidied my cloths before stepping back and looking at the ground. She cutely spoke, “I’m sorry master.” I laughed and then gave her a kiss, “Don’t be sorry I just want our first time to be a bit more private is all. After that I don’t really care where we are.” I was holding her chin up with my pointer finger making her look at me. She smiled, “I love you master, so much.” I smiled again, “I love you too Xenova.” I gave her a quick kiss again and then headed back towards the group.
Dani, Sylvie, and Camellia were looking at me with concern in their eyes. They didn’t seem to care about the addition of another sister. Silthis was looking at me with eyes of love and lust. She actually looked like she wanted to jump me right then and there. I winked at her and she actually had to be supported by Violet. Violet had a look of concern in her eyes. It made me feel good that they all care for me so much. At this time I noticed some notifications in the corner of my view.
Due to the constant stress on your mind and consciousness you have unlocked the [Dragon’s Mind].
[Dragon’s Mind] – Able to keep your consciousness intact and under your control in the most extreme of circumstances.
Due to your capability to love and care for those close to you no matter what their past or present you have unlocked the [Dragons’ Heart].
[Dragon’s Heart] – Once a dragon becomes attached to something or someone it is extremely hard for that attachment to be cut. Note: Certain emotions may be amplified such as rage.
Congratulations! You have created the spell [Destructive Long Call].
[Destructive Long Call] – Imbues the user’s voice with three different elements. The Space Element in order to cut through space and speak to anyone in the universe, the Wind Element to amplify the sound of your voice, and the Destruction Element to wreak havoc at the destination of your call.
Congratulations! Due to melding two or more different elements together into one spell you have been promoted to Immortal Magic Rank!
Immortal Magic Rank – User’s Mana Pool has doubled.
I saw the notifications and I was ecstatic. I don’t really understand how I unlocked the Dragon’s Heart or the Dragon’s Mind, but the effects were pretty good. I guess that is what helped me to control the Wrath of the Asura this time. It would also explain why I got so much more pissed than I normally would. Some flashes of her memories went through my head and I had to clench my hand until my nails made it bleed to keep my anger under control. Dani grabbed my hand and a white light radiated around it. The cut on my hand instantly closed up and there wasn’t even a scar left.
I smiled at her and she smiled back with eyes full of concern. I found out from Xenova who was training her that her elements were Life and Nature. Nature is from her race being an elf and the Life is just the random element that was chosen for her. All elves are in tune with nature and able to use the Nature Element, but they are also given a random element as well.
I gave her a kiss on her forehead and she visibly relaxed. King Lizardeous walked over to us, “Is everything okay your majesty?” I nodded my head, “Yeah everything is fine.” I turned towards him, “We do need to talk about something though.” He nodded his head hurriedly, “What is on you mind your majesty?” I began to recount my trip to the underwater city and told him who and what was there. I then issued a proclamation imbuing wind magic into my voice, “From this day forth, there shall not be any discrimination based on race! Everyone is to be treated fairly in the United Draconian Empire!”
I looked across the crowd and saw some discontent among them. There was even a few that spoke up, “What about the vile demons!?” I could see Xenova stiffen up some and I sighed, “Not all demons want to do the things that they do. Every single demon is enslaved to the God King known as Lucifer. They have no control over the atrocities they are committing. There may be some that truly enjoy what Lucifer is making them do, but I hope that they are a minority.”
Someone else spoke up, “So we are just supposed to let them attack us?” I shook my head, “Of course not! What kind of Emperor would I be if I made you all stand by while they raped and killed your kin!?” I just want you to treat them like you would anyone else if they are not hostile at the time. Until I kill Lucifer though, do not let your guard down! I will announce to the universe at the time that Lucifer falls and when I do hopefully the demons will become a race that can live in harmony with the other races of the universe, or at least in the United Draconian Empire.”
I know that all non-magical humans can’t be around the magic that demons release, but they all should have a personal shield for that equipped. I saw that there were still some discontent in the crowd so I spoke up again, “If it gets back to me that anyone in my empire discriminates against any race because of their race then I won’t hesitate to deal with them myself!” I looked over at King Lizardeous, “I don’t care if you are a king of one of my kingdoms or not.”
King Lizardeous knelt down immediately, “Your will is my command your majesty!” I nodded, “Good. Now when I get back to my Space Fortress I shall issue this same proclamation to every kingdom in the empire.” I won’t be so naive as to think that all of the discrimination will stop with this proclamation, but I do hope that it helps.
They all knelt down with King Lizardeous, “Yes your majesty!” I nodded, “Now I have to keep my promise.” I turned around and flew off towards the underwater city. I floated in the are directly above the water covering it. I activated my mana perception and used mana manipulation on the rivers of mana under the city and a half a mile around it. I connected them all with tendrils of my mana and discovered if it wasn’t for the rise in magic rank to Immortal I wouldn’t have had enough in my pool to link them all.
The ocean started to bubble and after a few minutes water started to fall from the invisible dome covering the city. A few seconds later and there was a new island with a ruined city on top. I landed on the ground outside of the barrier and knocked on it. A couple of lamia’s immediately slithered out. When they saw the sky and lack of ocean they were dumbfounded. They looked at me, “You kept your promise?” I sighed, “I have done everything that I could to keep it. There may be some discrimination, but hopefully any radicals will be part of the minority.”
The lamias looked ecstatic and rushed back into the dome. A few minutes later and I saw that the dome changed and you could actually see the city through it. No longer was there a ruined city, but a bustling metropolitan. The dome was still there, but I could see that there was an actual entrance to the town where the dome was almost nonexistent. I smiled and then flew back to the palace and was greeted by a big hug and passionate kiss from Silthis.
She pulled back and smiled at me while snuggling in my bosom, “You kept your promise.” I smiled, “I always try. How did you know though?” She grinned, “A little lizard told me.” She snuck a glance at King Lizardeous. I looked at him and he just shrugged his shoulders, “I have eyes and ears everywhere on my planet. I am surprised that you were able to raise the city and the land within half a mile around it to the surface.
I laughed, “You and me both. I was sort of just winging it and I was glad that I advanced to Immortal Magic Rank and my mana pool doubled. It was double the size and still took almost three quarters of it just to raise it. I opened a shortened version of the notifications screen just to view the name of the skill I probably gained.
Congratulations! You have learned the spell [Manipulate Earth]!
Congratulations! You have earned the title [Earth Mover]!
I closed the notifications and didn’t bother with them. The new earth spell was self-explanatory and the title most likely wouldn’t be used because I am currently using the one I am most proud of. I looked back over at the girls and They were all staring at me with semi-open mouths, well except for Dani. I raised an eyebrow, “What?” Sylvie swallowed some saliva before she spoke, “Did you just say you advanced to Immoral Magic Rank?”
I nodded my head, “Yeah.” As soon as that word left my mouth I remember what Zellfina told me. There hasn’t been anyone who has made it to Immortal in both Magic and Power before. I let out a small laugh and put my hands up a little, “Surprise.” Xenova wrapped her arms around me, “I knew master was amazing.” I smiled at how doting she became after I took all those memories away. It was kind of cute and a little heartwarming.
She let me go and stepped back with the girls. Xylnick stepped up, “Did you really break through to Immortal Magic Rank your majesty?” I nodded, “Yup. When I yelled at Lucifer just a while ago I made a combination spell.” Xylnick smiled, but I could see his lips twitching a little bit. Silthis spoke up, “Can we see the spell dear?” I smiled, “Sure.”
I looked around and saw a building that was falling apart a little bit outside of town. I used the spell and a roar like a dragon came from my mouth and then the sound disappeared after a crack in space showed up. Almost instantly after the rip in space closed the building was destroyed. I looked over at them and all the girls were surprised at the power of the roar. Violet spoke up, “What elements did you combine sire.”
I answered her, “Space, Wind, and Destruction.” She was surprised, “Three Elements!” I nodded and she facepalmed, “Your majesty is broken.” I raised my eyebrows, “Broken?” She nodded, “Most mages only merge two elements because that is all that is required. Merging more than two elements is possible, but usually only by those at the God Rank and above. They also have to have an affinity to three Elements as well which is extremely rare.”
I smiled, “Nothing wrong with being a little broken.” She shook her head and sighed, “Don’t even get me started on your unknown element you called Destruction.” I shrugged my shoulders, “It’s an ability that is unique to me.” She sighed again and then stopped speaking. I smiled and then looked at King Lizardeous, “Thank you for your hospitality, but I think we should be moving on to our next planet.”
The kind nodded his head, “Of course your majesty.” I then smacked my fist on my hand, “That reminds me. I would like to know if it would be possible to spare some of your men with me?” He thought about it for a minute before responding, “In times of war against the Empire my troops are your troops, but I can’t afford to spare any now your majesty.” I smiled, “No need to apologize. I am trying to get the 7th imperial army back up and running, so I thought I would use this trip as a recruiting trip as well.”
He nodded, “That is an excellent idea your majesty. I apologize for my lack of men thought.” I waved it off, “Your planet isn’t really a militaristic planet so it’s fine. Otherwise you wouldn’t have needed me to finish off the Necromancer.” I bid farewell to the king and then led the girls back to the drop ship. We were stopped by some of the lamias before we made it there though.
I was shocked at how fast they got to the city from their city, but I didn’t think about it much. The lead lamia stepped up and bowed at the waist, “Your majesty we would like to request to be a part of your army.” I raised an eyebrow, “I have no problem with that at all. How many of you would like to join?” She smiled, “We have around a hundred thousand lamia knights and archers that would like to join you sire.” I widened my eyes a little bit, “So many?” She smiled again, “There would be more, but we had to leave some home to defend the city and help defend the planet.”
I nodded my head, “That makes sense.” I looked over the number of troops that were here before talking, “I take it the rest are back at the city?” She nodded her head, “Yes sir.” I nodded, “Okay, we will head back to the ship and then send some drop ships down to collect them.” She saluted, “Yes sir.” With that our group, including the lamias, boarded the drop ships that were here and prepared to head back to the UDE Freedom.

Silver Fox and the Western Hero
Author's Note. This is book 7! Please feel free to hop on and enjoy!

Alex was dying, and all the millions his father had left him meant nothing. The life he had been so eager to embrace, to do the memory of his father proud, would soon come to an end. Cancer. That ugly, terrible word. He had tried to be strong for his mother, even when the treatments left him violently ill, his body wracked with pain, his friends and even his girlfriend leaving him almost as fast as his once impressive physique wasted to nothing under the ravages of his illness. And just when he thought all hope was dead, a couple discrete referals placed by high-powered friends of his family got him an exclusive spot at the most sophisticated cryonic facility in the world. He didn't know if there was such a thing as an afterlife, but part of the package included uploading a copy of his cortex into a digital universe filled countless worlds to explore, where he could embrace whatever class or profession he could dream of. All of which sounded hell of a lot better than the miserable death waiting for him in the real world. In the end, he signed the paperwork, putting his pathetic flickering life in the hands of potential quacks and charlatans. After all, with death just days away, what did he have to lose? Even if he could never be successfully revived, he could at least adventure his heart out. (Authors Note: Books 1-6 are now live on Amazon and here is a link if you wanted to check it out! And I will continue to post chapters to Book 6 here first, until that tale is told! I hope you enjoy! And if you wanted to help support my work by checking out book 1 on Amazon, I would be extremely grateful!)

Blair Nys: Blood and Benevolence
Blair is a young man and even of royal heritage. As such his life has followed a strict plan since birth. Only for it to suddenly, in the time span of a finger snipping, change. Connections to another world opened up. Humans with powers made of the wildest imaginations, stepped out of them, calling themselves cultivators. Naturally, earth’s population went into an uproar. One piece of information created an especially great stir. The cultivators were there to pick disciples. Millions rushed to them, and Blair wanted to be one of them. There was just one problem. His lord father was strictly against interaction with those magical beings. He always dreaded a foreign power gaining influence in his court. Well, the old man never changes, and now it was the same as ever. His sister wasn´t even allowed to study abroad. However, all his senses told Blair that the future lay in the cultivator's hands. His plan was to gain knowledge, power, and maybe influence. Then he would return. One night he simply vanished in the darkness, away from his father’s claws. Will he succeed? That is hard to tell. The immortal world is an unforgiving place, even worse than earth. It’s just that Blair doesn’t know that yet. Can he survive there, and gain a footing in the new era of qi and godly hermits? Only time will tell, and Blair has to fight for every minute. Authors note: Give the story a try. It’s my personal blend of qi, cultivation, and struggles of morality and power. If I can deliver on all that is another question, but I will give it my best. As a further note, I am not using any of the usual strict realms and extreme power differences. It’s more about gathering and refining qi. Whoever uses his chances, sneak attacks, intuitions, and skills in a better way wins. However, having more or better qi will help, but I am not at a point where I have written a lot of that, so I might promise too much. Thanks for reading so far and checking my synopsis out, now you might give the story a try. Have fun. The picture is from JCK5D (Pixabay)
