Bab 152: Chapter 152
A few hours later, I was laying down in the bed with Lady Death snuggled up next to me. I felt deliciously sore all over even if my [Gamer's Body] was already going to work on healing all that.
I turned to my side to address my partner. "So…was the mind-blowing sex the only reason you called me to your realm?" I asked her. "Not that I minded it at all." I added.
I noticed that Lady Death had seemed to be very pent up and almost starved for affection. Lady Death really liked laying kisses all over me and had done so many times throughout our multi-hour long session together.
Lady Death smiled at me. She affectionately reached forward and brushed a strand of hair off of my face. "I deeply enjoyed it as well, but you are correct. That wasn't the only reason I called you to my domain. I decided to make you my champion and give you some information."
"Your champion?" I asked.
[Your Title: Death's Favored has now been upgraded to Death's Champion!]
→ Death's Champion: You are immune to all Death Magic. You cannot permanently die in any universe that falls under Lady Death's domain. You can revive one person from death every single day!
'Woah!' I exclaimed in my head when I quickly read over the upgraded title. This one really came with some amazing benefits. I'd gone from three remaining spare lives to practically an infinite amount! 'What places don't fall under her domain?' I asked the System.
[Places such as the Hells or Dormamu's dark domain will fall outside her area of influence. If you die in one of those places, then you'll still only have three revives.]
Those were dangerous places that I would be hesitant to go with my current level anyway. Going into places like those meant facing their evil rulers at their maximum powers, and those rulers were able to call upon all of the souls trapped in those dimensions for even more power as well! I was steering clear of those places for sure until I knew she could handle them.
"You are my champion now, Layla of the Fallen. That's more than just an empty title as the entity fused to your soul probably already told you." Lady Death said. "It also means that you are my chosen lover. I shall take no other for all of time. In the whole multiverse it shall only be you." She declared…and wow. What a declaration that was.
"Woah…" Layla I said quietly. "Thanos is going to be pissed…" I added with a small laugh.
Death scoffed. "Him? I could care less about him. He is undoubtedly the being who annoys me the most. Every single iteration of him."
I figured that might be the case. I couldn't imagine the workload Lady Death would be under normally. Then add on top all the planets full of life Thanos sacrificed "in her name" and that workload vastly increases.
"All those Thanos' always think that sacrificing trillions of souls to me will win my favor. They are all fools! He always ends up killing so many mortals unnecessarily! All those souls would have ended up in my realm upon their natural deaths anyway. I had no need for them before their times! It just makes more paperwork for me!" Death complained next to me.
Lady Death explained to me that there was an avatar of herself in every single Universe. She had basically branched her consciousness out a million times over to lighten the workload, but even then, the amount of souls they all had to deal with everyday sounds daunting to me.
She told me that I had never interacted with one of her avatars, though. From the moment Lady Death noticed me, she had been interacting with me using her main consciousness.
"I'm glad you brought up Thanos, because he was the one, or rather two, that I wanted to warn you about." Lady Death said to Layla.
"Two?" I asked in confusion.
"Yes, Two. The Thanos you left in that cursed universe was very upset that you destroyed some of the Infinity Stones there. Those can take hundreds of years to reform and that universe's Thanos does not want to wait anymore to fulfill his ambition. Even now, he is searching for a way to enter your home universe." Lady Death explained.
She explained to me that while I was able to freely travel between universes, that didn't mean my sacred Gear didn't leave a faint dimensional signature when I did so. If someone found the exact spot I traveled from, which Thanos had, then they could record the correct dimensional coordinates.
[I wonder if they'll team up to kill you? Who am I kidding? You're the Gamer! Of course they will!]
I was obviously planning on dealing with Thanos in the future anyway. What was one more!? That just meant double the rewards!
[That's the spirit, Host! I have good news for you as well! The Gamer from the Narutoverse responded. You were 'busy' so I didn't interrupt you then.]
'That's great! What do they want to trade for a pair of Rinnegan?'
[They want the most basic thing from DxD there is…the Boosted Gear.]
'Do they know that comes with a talking dragon who will never shut up?' That was one of the reasons I wouldn't want any top tier Sacred Gears myself. Most of them had the souls and consciousness of other beings in them. One voice in my head constantly talking to me was already more than enough!
[How rude! Also, she knows and she doesn't care, apparently.]
I mentally shrugged. If that's what they wanted, then I'd just have to go and get one. Obviously, I couldn't take it from Isane as that would be cruel and evil.
I figured there had to be some evil versions of Issei in my multiverse that I wouldn't mind taking the Gear from, though. And luckily for me, I was currently in bed with one of the few beings in existence who would actually have the knowledge on where to locate one of those evil Isseis.
