Capítulo 84: After Talk.
Maulketh looked down at the heroes who had already been defeated. From Superman, Wonder Woman, Shazam, Supergirl, Hawk Girl, Hawk Man, Green Lantern who was captured by Grimnar, The Flash, Firestorm, Red Tornado, and Martian Manhunter.
The only ones who were still fighting were Doctor Fate and Captain Atom who was actually managing to stalemate his Demon. But while he had the heroes here he spoke to them as they were all waking up.
"You lost."
They all looked up at him and the Lords around him with bitter hearts. They were not dead, so they thought he would make their lives hell, but he kept talking.
"I know why you all decided to come down. To give the innocent people a chance to flee, it is noble. But you failed, were captured, and now are at my mercy. Any words? Any pleas for mercy? Any final words before I end you?"
Wonder Woman stood up and walked toward him. She looked past the Lord and looked him in the eyes.
"No."
The heroes all looked behind her before they stood up and stood with her. They stood defiantly and waited for him to kill them. Maulketh looked into each of their eyes and even Billy who was in his real form as a 10-year-old and was shaking in his boots did not look away.
He scoffed.
"Brave. You're free to go."
The heroes were expecting to be killed as examples, but they were being told they could leave? Wonder Woman needed to know why.
"Why? Why are you doing all of this?"
"To teach you a lesson."
She felt her face heat up as he was treating them like children.
"A lesson?"
He nodded.
"Yes, I uncursed Gotham, taught Batman some magic, and then you all begin to discuss how to kill me just because I choose my home. Because of you, 500,000 people will lose their homes and the state of Wyoming will be mine.
So next time, think before you act and who you scheme against. Because if I was truly evil, I would just invade all of the earth with my army and take it for myself. That is the lesson I am teaching you. But I am not leaving empty-handed after the trouble you all caused me."
Hawk Girls Mace, Hawk Man's Axe, Green Lanter's Ring, the blood of Martian Manhunter, Flash, and Firestorm all rushed toward him. He did not take much blood from the heroes, just a few drops.
They all watched as he swallowed everything he took. Instantly the Nth metal and the Green Lantern Ring were assaulted by his Concept once they reached his stomach. There, the three items and the blood were attacked by his concept.
The Ring was the first to be broken down and through the link it had to the Power Battery of the Green Lanterns he got the location of the Main Battery on Planet Oa, and gained quit a few interesting abilities he would explore soon.
But the two Nth metal weapons were taking a while to be broken down.
'This is weird.'
As he did that, he teleported all the heroes away back to the Watch Tower except for Wonder Woman. She had no idea why she was still here, but she saw that Maulketh seemed to be deep in thought.
"Why did you not send me back?"
Maulketh opened his eyes and looked down at her.
"Simple. I wanted to talk with you. You all seem to think of me as the same as Darkseid and I plan to have you at least get a better understanding of me as a individual. And I much rather talk to you."
"Why?"
Maulketh leaned forward and gave her the answer.
"You are attractive."
She thought it was for some other reason not because of her looks.
"Is that really enough?"
He nodded.
"Looks are a power in their own right."
She felt Maulketh's Domain heal the burns she had. Wonder Woman sat down on a rock and looked up at Maulketh.
"Will you stay as a dragon or speak to me as a man?"
"I am a Dragon, my human form is just the form I take when it is inconvenient to be at my full size. For now, I will stay as my true self."
Wonder Woman asked what she needed to know.
"What do you plan to do?"
"Take my time and explore this Reality. Grow stronger, and enjoy my life. Grow my family if possible."
"Your harem?"
"I call them family."
"I see and you want me in your family?"
"Straight to the point are we? I would welcome you into it, but I don't think that is possible after this."
Wonder Woman looked down.
"I did suggest making Dragon Slaying weapons so I am at fault."
"You are. Also, I am immune to Dragon Slaying weapons."
"Of course you are. I will be leaving as soon as you answer one of my questions. Will you eat dinner with me next week?"
He opened his eyes not expecting that. What was her end goal?
"Is this a honey trap?"
"No. Just a meal, consider it me apologizing for planning to make Dragon Slaying items. But will you allow us to begin an evacuation of Wyoming?"
"Yes. Also, my answer is no."
With that, he teleported Wonder Woman back to the Watch Tower, but he took Batman from the Tower. Once Bruce Wayne appeared here he looked up at Maulketh thinking he was going to die.
"You. I would like nothing more than to rip out your soul and torture it for a million years, but I won't. I will do something better. I, Maulketh Imperator Tempus, curse you to never be able to use Magic again."
When the curse descended on Bruce, he felt all of the mana in his body leave him. His activated Mana Pathways were burned away leaving him once again just a normal human. But Maulketh had one more thing planned.
He would take Damian Wayne to his side as the kid was a trained assassin. He knew what killing was like and would just lose his edge with Batman. As such, he would be taking him later on. With that done he teleported Batman away and would make him suffer by taking his child.
Now, that most of the heroes were dealt with, he looked at the Demon Lord who was fighting Captain Atom. The Captain was truly powerful, but he missed a crucial dodge and the Demon Lord managed to blast him with a full-power Spear blast causing a hole to open in his body.
This caused his energy to leak out in a massive explosion that actually stunned the Demon Lord forcing him to use his Domain to defend. When he opened his eyes Atom was gone, but he was not dead. Maulketh saw that he teleported away last second to avoid trully being killed.
With that, he turned to Fate and the King who were reaching the end of the fight. While Nabu was a powerful higher Dimensional being, Kent Nelson was just a regular human man and a very old one. The man was already nearing the end of his natural lifespan which had been extended by Nabu.
The more power that Nabu used the more stress Kent was placed under. As for the King it was borrowing Maulketh's powers which caused it to self damage through them. But it's natural durabillty and regeneration allowed it to keep up.
The King roared as it's metal body thundered with Void Lightning. The Lightning filled the Soul Marble while it's Domain controlled them like living snakes. Void Fire fused into the lightning which caused their speed to rise.
Fate failed to dodge at the last second and he got hit straight in the chest by a bolt of Void Fire Lightning. The energy flowed through his body, so Nabu increased the power to push away the deadly mixture.
At that moment the King drew on space magic and teleported above Fate before smacking him down with a slash. Fate hit the ground of the Soul Marble hard and tried to get up, but failed.
Maulketh noticed that Kent was beggining to reach his limit and would die if he got hurt any more. Maulketh stood up, teleported inside the Soul Marble along with Grimnar and the 100 Lords.
When he arrived the King bowed to him while Dr. Fate got up and healed his wounds.
"My Lord, you have arrived."
"Well done."
Maulketh's Divine Domain filled the Soul Marble and the full force of his Concept fell onto the place. He was here for the Helment, but despite him locking down space, Dr. Fate still managed to flee from him through a portal under his feet.
Seeing him escape made him sigh. It seemed his understanding of the Lord's of Order was not enough as Nabu managed to flee to another universe.
"Damn."
The King felt the powers he borrowed returning making him feel weak. Maulketh's Domain aided him in healing as the Soul Marble came down around them.
"You have done extremely well. You fought with disticntion, what reward do you desire?"
The King only had one request.
"Will you give me the honor of becoming your Apostle?"
As a god, Maulketh knew how to make Apostles and the process was simple. Much like through his Blessing, that allowed those that had it to draw on his powers. An Apostle would keep the borrowed power forever, but the god could take them away at any moment.
"I grant you the title of First Apostle and I grant you the name Somonnax The Unbroken."
He named him that as most of his body was covered in a unique metal that formed inside of his Dimension. By feeding on this metal Somonnax made use of it in his body. With the name and becoming an Apostle, Somonnax felt whole.
Power filled him and he felt the Blessing on his head fill him with even more power.
"I shall never fail you again."
As the Soul Marble came down, he turned to the 100 Lords.
"Go. I want the state taken by the end of the day. Allow those who want to flee to do so, kill those that fight, and capture those that don't do either."
"We follow your will."
With that, he teleported back to his lair, inside of his castle in his human along with Grimnar. They appeared in the main room as the Castle was a recreation of his old one along with many new additions to it. When he, Grimnar, and Leman who was still on his shoulder appeared here, he sighed as he walked toward the bed.
He laid down on the big bed along with his two familliars feeling alone. As he looked at the ceailing he felt his body beggining to break down the Nth metal weapons he had eaten. He had rapidly increased his strength so he felt this was a good time to take some time to sleep.
He yawned and closed his eyes as he fell asleep. Meanwhie, his Concept now began to work faster. He had consumed many powers, items, had aquired great knoledge and despite no damage or issues comming from that, he perfered to take time to rest.
And while he slept, his mind could process the knoledge he had and how to better use the many abillities he had gained. Meanwhile, while he slept his army pushed into the state which caused the US Army to begin to mobilize.
They did not try to use Nucleur Weapons as those had proven to do little against powerful beings, instead they aided in the evacuation as the Beasts allowed them.
And by the end of the day, the entire human popullation had fled, died as they tried to fight them off, or were captured as they refused to leave. Somonnax, using Maulketh's powers began the proces of terraforming the state just like Yellowstone.
It would be slower for him, but he could do the job allowing Maulketh to process his new abilities. While he did that, Trihexa who still had a connection with him through thier oath, teleported to Yellowstone.
He had already given her free access so she did not have to bother with his security meshures. She had been on earth this whole time trying to do the same as he did. Eat metahumans and other criminals, but she was just not as good at it as he as.
She could not draw as much strength from them like Maulketh. And now he was far stronger than she was so she returned again. Using their oath she teleported to his side as he had allowed this.
When she appeared in his room she did not bother him and laid down next to him. Grimnar and Leman looked at her as she was laying down away from Maulketh. She had a frown on her face as he woke up.
Her back was to him as she was bitter than his Concept was suited to taking other powers for himself. She had taken a small bit of his Concept traits, but not enough to grow at the same speed he could.
"Hey Trihexa. Glad your back."
She did not respond to him so he reached out and wrapped his arms around her.
"You ok?"
"No."
She sounded pouty and bitter. He placed his head against hers as he could tell she wanted attention. This was diffrent them the condident Trihexa he had been hanging with. He wondered what happened to her?
"What is wrong? Last time we spoke you were confident and full of drive. Now you seem defeated."
"It's nothing."
"I know it's not nothing. Tell me."
"No."
"If you don't tell me I will do things to you."
She stayed silent one of his hands went over one of her large breasts and gave it a firm squeeze while the other went over her slim waist. He pulled her up against him, but she still did not look at him.
"Tell me."
She stayed silent as now she wanted him to do things to her. In reality, her issue was just that she was bitter over the fact he had quickly surpassed her while she had wanted to beat him. She had gotten stronger, but not as much as he had as his Concept was built for this.
"It's not your fault you know. My Concept is just the strongest."
He wormed his hand into her dress to touch her breast directly as they were the biggest he had seen, bigger than Akeno's. It helped that she was so tall as well so they looked great on her frame. She pushed her plump butt against his lower half causing Grimnar to grab Leman by his neck and run away with him in fear.
The small dragon was confused as Grimnar ran away. Finally she spoke.
"I don't plan to give up, but you would have beaten me if we did not stop fighting. The first time. And ever since we argued, you became way stronger. Leaving me behind. It feels like I challanenged you for nothing."
"Then I would not have you to myself."
Maulketh lowered her dress down her shoulders to reveal her black braw. He pulled the bra up revealing her pale big breasts. He grabbed them directly while purred. She let him enjoy them for a bit before she got up and straddled his legs. She leaned down and looked him in the eyes.
When they did that they forgot they both wore sunglasses and removed them. His slitted eyes looked into her 7 pupilled eyes. To represent her 7 heads. As they looked into their eyes he asked her something.
"Will you join my familly?"
"Yes. Keep your harem, keep Ophis if you want. Just don't leave me behind."
With that gone they looked directlly into each others eyes before they kissed each other. When they seperated he grabbed her ass over her black dress.
"I for sure won't. Now, want to be my Soul Mate after or now."
"How about later? Let's enjoy ourselves like this."
"I would like that."
(I have decided. +18 Chapter tommorow. You may praise me.)
