Yasaka eechless. She could not fathom what I had just requested, and it took more than a couple of seds for her to recollect herself, regaining her natural expression.

  She might also be questioning my sanity in the process.

  I would be too, questioning my sanity, and the answer might shock eve might have something to do with me w a stressful job by myself for years.

  "This is all for simple pleasure?"

  Yasaka asked. Her eyes narrowed ever so slowly. She was gauging my rea, likely p what kind of nutjob would think such a demand would work in any kind of logical universe.

  Was this universe logical?

  Yes. Ecchi logic – so such a demand probably worked if I decided to forcibly press the matter, but there was no need for that. I could still get what I wanted and much more if I uood my gifts correctly, specifically the third gift.

  "Well, you did ask what I want from you, and I think I want that. If you don't want to –

  "Fine," Yasaka interrupted. Her expression unging. "Return my daughter to the state that she was before, and I will be your bedwarmer for as long as you live."

  I arched my brow while muttering inaudibly: "as long as you live."

  "Yeah, no way, Yasaka-sama. You will probably kill me the instant I return your daughter to normal or as normal as she be, so nope. Besides, that was not the deal. You asked what I wanted, from you most likely, and I only gave my ho answer. It is your fault for assuming otherwise."

  I responded and took a slow sip from my cup, all while enjoying the show Yasaka dispyed. She really did have a nice expression.

  Golden eyes. Golden long hair. Nice pair of lips.

  "You!"

  Yasaka growled. She nearly assaulted me again, but she would be in for a surprise if she tried that shit again. I was not prepared the st time around. I might not even prepare this time around, but I would not be pletely helpless.

  "Yes, me?"

  I questioned with a smirk, adding more fuel to the fire and probably pushing her over the edge. Better to hold her back a little, for insurance.

  "Ah. If I die, good luck at rest your lovely daughter. Without her soul, she is more or less a corpse."

  I added. My statement stopped Yasaka from doing anything rash, at least for now.

  Yasaka took a deep breath, calming herself before speaking up once more. "What do you want for the return of my daughter as she once was with her spirit restored?"

  "Oh? Hmmm… her spirit is quite a prized acquisition since she is a ailed fox. I will not exge it for anything less."

  I answered and allowed Yasaka to uand the hidden meaning. There were likely other ailed fox beside Yasaka and Kunou, but no one in their right mind would give their soul in exge unless it was out of love.

  "Take my spirit instead. My spirit is fully matured and far more powerful than that of my daughter."

  Yasaka offered with little to ation, and I was thinking about giving her some time to think it all through. I supposed that was unnecessary. Did she not think about whether I had Kunou's soul on my person? Maybe she did, but she could not be for certain.

  Or maybe not.

  "Now that is a deal I accept, Yasaka-sama."

  I nodded with a smile. That smile soon turned sour. It was mostly for effect, really. However, I did take notice that I had a lot of inings. The wall of text did allow me to see some event in advance.

  "Unfortunately," I begun before Yasaka could speak up. "I ot restore your daughter's spirit at this time, but I will have her restored tonight as long as I get what I wanted. Since I do not trust you holding up your end of the bargain, I will be extrag your spirit first before rest your daughter."

  I raised a hand to prevent Yasaka from interrupting me. She obviously wasn't going to accept that kind of dition since I could just take her soul without rest her daughter's one.

  "You have my words that your daughter will be as she was. If you accept my dition, I will give you further instru, but do not take too long. I will not be around forever, and when I am gone, I will be gone food. I hope to see you soon, Yasaka-sama."

  I added before activating a scroll, rendering me invisible and allowio sneak away. From Yasaka's point of view, I simply vanished without a trace.

  Well, not without a trace, but Yasaka was too preoccupied to notice. She was hugging her daughter in her arms, but the girl remained unresponsive.

  Kunou was more or less a corpse without my and.

  A legion of Youkai eventually arrived, finding numerous undead corpses littered about. Most of them had been torn apart by Yasaka, and I did not find the o restore them. I could always make more at my leisure.

  …

  …

  …

  "It is likely a neancer, Yasaka-hime," an aging man said. "I thought su art was lost in time. If we are to restore Kunou-hime pletely, we must know where the neancer has sent her spirit. Without that, we afraid there is little be done."

  Yasaka simply nodded before dismissing her ee. None of them had a solution to restore Kunou, but she did – except it wasly a solution.

  "How could I have allowed this to happen?"

  Yasaka questioned herself before sobbing almost silently. She would do absolutely anything for Kunou, including giving up her own life. Or in this case, her own soul.

  Once she had made up her mind oter and prepare for the fallout afterwards, she was given instru oo meet me. It was not hard to give her instrus from nowhere in sight given my ability to i events into the universe.

  …

  …

  …

  "I see that you e alone, Yasaka-sama."

  I ented. I did not really want to have to deal with other Youkais because it was annoying. But if I had too, I would drown them in sheer numbers. Summoning scrolls were super cheap after all.

  "You requested that I e alone… what shall I call you?"

  Yasaka responded. She did question how I would be rest Kunou without having Kunou's body in sight. I did not bother to give her an ao that because there was no reason to tell her anything, at least not anymore.

  "Oh, whatever you like at the moment, Yasaka-sama."

  I told her almost absentmindedly. My mind was elsewhere, thinking about the possible ways to cim her soul and absorb it into my domain.

  There were several ways.

  Due to the nature of my domain, fug Yasaka into submission was actually one way, but that would probably take way too long. I holy did not have the stamina to match her. I was a squishy human, and Yasaka ernatural monster with superhuman strength and stamina.

  Yeah. That would not go well. I o be way more powerful to do that. Probably e too.

  Another method was overwhelming her soul on a spiritual level, but that would require me to have a super powerful soul myself. Again, I was way outcssed in that – probably. I was a human, and Yasaka ernatural monster with superhuman strength and stamina.

  Oh, did I just repeat myself?

  Out of all the possible methods, only one was really viable. She had to be willing to bind herself to me and allow me to stake my cim on her soul. This was the method that I had pnned for when I had decided to fuck it and coere of the fa's leader.

  Granted, Yasaka was sidered to be the weakest fa's leader, but she was still a fa's leader with godlike strength from my perspective.

  The other methods were possible, but it would take way too much time, training and all of that shit.

  Did I mention that I was zy?

  "Fine, human neancer. Know that if you do not keep your end of the bargain, my people will hunt you to the end of time. There will be no pce for you to hide."

  Yasaka threatened me.

  "They try, but I will let you know that I am goddamn good at hide and seek."

  I responded with a shrug. I already khat her people, the Youkais of Kyoto were fanatically loyal, thus it probably pained her greatly to see her people being instrumental to her daughter's current predit.

  Oh well. Not like they had a choi the matter.

  Yasaka gred at me due to the respo I found it to be cute. I believed that she will be doing that more often soon enough.

  "Anyway, let's extract that spirit of yours, shall we?"

  I questioned, wanting to get the show on the road. The longer I pyed around, the more riskier things would bee. There was o take more risk than necessary when the goal is within reach.

  Yasaka pursed her lips. "What do you need me to do?"

  …

  …

  …

  "Is that all?"

  Yasaka questioned, realizing that nothing had really ged. She was still herself, not a disembodied spirit like she had assumed.

  I had also questiohe same thie notig the title of a notification.

  [Member Acquired: Yasaka (Highschool DxD)]

  I wondered if I could trust that, but the System never lied thus far. I truly acquired the first member in my Harem Pace, and with the first member, I begun to feel great ges.

  More options and abilities reted to Domination Domain opened up to me.

  I could not help but grin devilish.

  "Apparently so," I responded and took out a Bck Soul Gem. "Within this gem is your daughter's spirit. If you break it close to her body, her spirit would naturally return to its rightful pce. Probably."

  I wasn't sure that would work, sidering there was hod of returning a soul to a body in Skyrim from what I could recall, but hey, it never hurt to try.

  Yasaka snatched my gem from hand and the instant that she felt her daughter's spirit within, her eyes ged. Her whole expression did.

  In an instant, there should be a hole inside my chest from her attack, but Yasaka colpsed to the floor before she could carry out her thought, gasping for air.

  She could feel her strength and power leaving her body.

  No, being drained away.

  The world around us soon shattered, revealing a white void of my domain. I should start adding things into the domain, so that it could feel like home.

  Maybe a king-size bed to start.

  "What is the matter, Yasaka-sama? Feeling a bit uhe weather?"

  I questioned with a smile before lifting her up by the throat effortlessly. Having the strength equivalent to an Ultimate-Css devil felt great. Power and stamina to boot as well.

  "Oh, you should call me Master from now on, Yasaka-sama, and I think I should have what I wanted from you now."
