Chapter 501: All Preparations Are Finished

Edward opened his eyes, exhaling deeply. Although he was always calm and composed, he also had his worries. After all, he was still Tier 8 and facing a Tier 10 God–especially one who has conquered countless planes full of worshippers–he was worried, even with connection with Netheril.

"I can't believe you are trying to fool her," said Morgana, who appeared wearing suit pants, looking like a successful lawyer. With her beautiful purple hair, her beauty and charms were no less than any Goddess.

Edward ignored her as she knew this was one of her hobbies–cosplaying.

"I didn't."

"Would you truly allow her to become a part of the Empire?"

"Yes. I'm very tolerant of talented individuals."

"But, she would be a Tier 10 Arcanist."

"After breaking the Soul Limit, reaching Tier 10 will be extremely easy for me and many talents of the Empire after we have sufficient control of the Dark Multiverse. By then, her strength will not be as threatening."

"I see," nodded the little elf. "So, do you think she will agree?"

"I don't know, but our chances are high," replied Edward. He discovered the Magic Goddess was easier to read and understand than he anticipated. Of course, one of the main reasons is that she belittled Edward after their first meeting, allowing him to learn and deduce many things about her based on his body language and basic information about her.

"A few things are restricting her from joining us. The first one is–strength. Despite the potential shown by the Empire so far, it's not enough in her eyes. However, after we take down Guzznad and show these Gods the Milky Way is still unapproachable, she will understand our strength, making her more willing to accept my offer."

"That's interesting. What's next?"

"Her status is also a problem. She has been ruling for too long, so it's hard for her to give up her power and even become a subordinate. There is nothing much I can do about such an issue besides allowing time to make a difference and to lure her with more benefits."

"Indeed, that's a good strategy. We can lure you into cooperating with us through benefits. Then, after a period of cooperation, her actions will be considered betrayal from the Gods, alienating her until she has no choice but to join us," said Morgana, who calculated Edward's next plan in an instant.

"The only issue is how to lure her. She has reached the pinnacle of this world's power, wealth, and resources, so only a few things will interest her," groaned Edward.

"We could use some basic information about the Multiverse. However, that's dangerous knowledge. If news were to leak, the consequences would be too severe."

"For now, knowledge about the Multiverse is out of the question. Even if she joined us, I would not easily reveal such information."

The Multiverse is the key to reaching Tier 11. So, any news about it would create a storm across the entire Cosmic Faith Plane; no, it could cause a storm throughout the endless planes in the Astral Realm.

"In that case, only knowledge about the Magus Race might interest her," added Morgana. "Or, she might also be interested in the information about the Mana Grid we got from the Akashic Records."

Edward nodded in agreement. Then, he took a white string from his temple.

"Sent this memory to the Think Tank and have them analyze this meeting to see if they can find any more information that I miss. I want a character profile on her.

"Furthermore, activate the spies we have in the Central Area and ask them to find more information about Delilah."

"Is it not a little too dangerous to contact these people?"

Edward has long sent spies into the Central Area of the universe where all the most powerful creatures, Gods, and civilizations gathered. However, due to the inherent danger of such a high-level place, they remained dormant.

"The danger is worth it. Plus, they only need to be extra careful and not dig too deep into her secrets. Once the war finishes, we should provide these people with more support."

"As you wish," said Morgana before sending the command to the relevant department.

"Alright, let's get back to work. Did you get the information?"

"I did. With all her mood fluctuation, I scan some of her soul fluctuations. With this information, we should be able to crack the imprint," replied Morgana as she displayed a screen with data.

"Excellent," nodded Edward. With this information, he can suppress Delilah's imprint on the Mana Grid and use his enchantment to absorb endless mana from the grid.

Edward returned to work. Two weeks passed, and his project was finally successful. Then, he left a clone to continue the second step of the project–completely remove her imprint so he could have full control of the Mana Grid that runs through the Milky Way Galaxy. However, such a project was long-term and could not be accomplished in a short period.

Upon completion, Morgana sent the enchantment to the relevant department, and Edward focused on the war.

Three months later:

Edward sat on a chair next to a beach, holding a margarita and a screen floating before him. No one recognized their Emperor on this beach, and he took this time to relax.

"Those guys did not disappoint me," said Edward, watching videos of the Black Clover Knights fighting against the Scholar Mages of the Empire.

The battles were not all victories. After all, there are too many geniuses in the Empire, and these guys are still young, even with the help of Time Acceleration.

So, even Asta, who wowed the world with his Anti-Magic Energy, suffered many defeats. However, his original goal was to raise them into symbols of how powerful Battle Mages were, and the plans have shown initial success.

Now, under his secret command, the status of Battle Mages is slowly being raised, thus dealing with the disparity issue between the two classes.

"It's not at the level I want things to be yet, but we are getting there," muttered Edward, who prepared to close the screens and enjoy his time sunbathing.

However, he received another notification of the highest alert and security grade. He quickly opened it, and his eyes immediately brightened:

"Done? Good, good."

The Second Tier Aether Core was successfully created, using only a fraction of the needed time because of his new enchantments. The fog was finished a few weeks ago, so now, the Empire no longer needs to worry about the safety of the Milky Way after this war.

"Guzznad, you dare to blackmail twice," muttered Edward with a sneer, thinking how he had to send another Tier 9 Energy Core a few days ago. "Now, it's payback time."

He immediately contacted Olivier, who should have received the news.

"Did you see it?"

"I did," she nodded succinctly.

"So, what's next?" asked Edward.

"Now that we no longer have to worry about safety, we can slowly take over Guzznad's territory and overwhelm him.'

The current galaxy was divided into two halves. Now, it was time to take Guzznad's half, uniting the Milky Way under one regime, one voice.

"Excellent. Do I need to do anything?"

"We will have a meeting tomorrow before beginning the last expedition. You will need to attain."

"I will be there."

Olivier nodded before ending the communication.

"How cold," said Edward, shaking his head. "I should probably talk to her."

He raised his head to look above him. He knew this war was coming to an end, meaning the Empire would enter a new age.

"I hope everything goes smoothly."


Chapter 502: Self Control

"That's everything for the attack plan," said a young man from the Brazilian Region with glasses before looking at Edward and Olivier. He dressed in an old-fashioned way from the old era–with a suit and tie.

"I don't see any problem," said Edward. Based on his limited knowledge of war tactics, he saw no problem with the plan for the final battle. All the people present in this War Room were the brightest military minds of the Empire, so he trusted their judgment.

"Anything else?"

"We have never received any final say on whether the final battle with Guzznad will be a live broadcast?" asked an elderly man.

"The answer is no," replied Edward, and no one asked. As smart as they were, they understood there must be some secrets for the Emperor to hide the final battle. However, they were the people in the Empire with the highest security level, if there was something that even they could not know, then they did not want to know.

And their assumption was correct. Edward feared the Netheril would be revealed during his battle with Guzznad. If the people knew the Empire already had Tier 10 technology and could have easily ended this terrible war, all the effort they spent to create a positive image of a savior would be destroyed.

So, his battle with Guzznad will be recorded and edited before released to the public.

"Is there anything else?"

Everyone shook their heads, so the plan of action for this war was finalized. Edward proceeded to salute all these people, watching them leave. Then, he looked at his wife, Olivier.

"Aren't you going to say anything?"

"I don't have anything to say."

"Really?"

"If you have something to say, get on with it," she scoffed.

"Dear, we are immortal god-like beings," said Edward nonchalantly. "We have evolved beyond the point of using passive-aggressiveness to show our emotions. If you have a problem, use your words so we can communicate."

Olivier closed the screen before her, "My problem is with you."

'That's obvious,' thought Edward, but he did not dare utter these words. Instead, he listened patiently.

"I have no problem with your womanizing ways; you can sleep with as many women you want, and I don't care," said Olivier. "However, I thought the word 'wife' would mean something to you.

"However, you seem to be collecting them like Pokemon.'

'Why the hell did I teach her such a reference?' thought Edward despite remaining calm on the surface.

"Every time you bring someone back, I feel like you cheapen the bond you have with me and the others; it's like our marriage means nothing to you."

Edward did not say anything as he pondered her words; he took her concerns very seriously. He had realized something about him, about his relationship with his wife.

His initial attraction to them is rooted in a deep desire for possessiveness. Although he grew to love them after spending time with them and getting to know their true self, his attraction to them after their first meeting originated from his past life on Primordial Earth.

In his first life, these women were out of his reach. He lusted after them but knew he could never acquire them since they were 2D creatures and because he felt he could never pull women of this caliber.

However, after his reincarnation, he became handsome, rich, suave, and powerful. So, after coming into contact with some of them, he could not control his lust.

So, because of these deep-rooted desires, he could not control himself and brought them to his harem. And as Olivier said, his actions cheapen the bond he has with his previous wives.

Edward took a moment to think of all his wives, especially the time spent together. He spent a lot of time with his wives up to Olivier. He even grew old with her, spending decades as a couple.

However, Wiz and Tsunade were different. Their encounter was brief. Although there was a spark between them, it was far from the level of marriage. In some ways, their union is more like a political marriage.

"You're right. My actions have been too much," said Edward as he exhaled out loud. "I need better self-control."

He realized he should be more sensitive to his wives and family. Otherwise, his womanizing ways might cause real trouble one day.

Olivier leaned back on her chair, sighing: "Although I would love to hear you would stop, I guess I'll accept this for now."

Stop womanizing? Edward did not think he had the strength to do such a thing. The best he can do is control himself and not allow his ways to affect his family.

"I acknowledge my fault, now, it's your turn," said Edward, looking at her.

"I didn't do anything."

"You know you went too far by having your people monitor Wiz and Tsunade," added Edward, looking directly into her eyes. Olivier sighed:

"I could not escape the irrational fear in my mind," she explained. "Someone, I could not remove the idea that you would abandon me, handing all my power to them."

She knew Edward would never do such a thing with his personality, but these thoughts consumed her mind. So, she made a stupid decision.

"You know I would never do this."

"I do, but I couldn't help it."

Edward sighed, "Once this war is over, we will all go to Family Therapy. It should be of great help to our marriage."

"That may not be a bad idea," nodded Olivier. "However, it might be hard to find someone willing to take us on."

Being the therapist of the royal family will involve many secrets, and most people do not want to go down this rabbit hole. After all, if these secrets leaked, they probably wouldn't survive.

"I'm sure someone is daring enough. If not, we will use Artificial Intelligence."

"Alright."

After this conversation, the cog that is the Empire began to spin. The media went into a frenzy as propaganda for the final battle was everywhere. Edward did not even try to hide it.

The people were happy as this war, which went on for close to ten years, was on the verge of ending.

People wished for peace, especially in the fast-developing Empire. Although war is good for technological development, it's mostly in the military sector.

The Empire has just entered an age where everybody can have magical abilities. So, everybody wished for peace so they could develop and prosper to new heights.

As such, only a few people who used this war to rise in status or amass great wealth wished for this war to continue. The majority of citizens cannot wait for news of the Empire's victory against Guzznad.

Additionally, this war has other symbolic meanings–besides the fact the entire Milky Way will soon be under the Empire's control. This war is the first battle against the Gods, so they must win no matter what.

Edward has already secretly poisoned or brainwashed the population to disdain or have enmity with the Gods.

So, many people were waiting for Guzznad's capture and his possible dissection on a live broadcast.

As such, under the overwhelming support of the people, the final battle finally started.
