A bit short, but I did try to make something happen due to popular demand while powering through the Cold War era so we can get to pre-Issei canon events already.

Anyway, you know the drill by now, if you guys want to support me and are even awesome enough to pass 1$ over, can you please check out either my Patreón or Ko-fi:

Thanks a lot to all those who've already supported me. You guys are great.

_______________________________________

The end of the Second World War changed far too many things to count.

America and Russia became the superpowers of the world, much to our thawing Ice Princess, Anastasia's, ire.

My wife's newest addition had many colorful words to say about what Stalin was doing to her home country, hence why I had her help in a joint effort between myself and Uriel surprisingly. We would use the Orthodox Church to assist those victimized during this harsh rule, even as the Communist leadership follow the Marxist ideals regarding the removal of religion as it is 'an opiate for the masses'.

Anastasia couldn't truly display herself, but she could help her struggling people. No matter how cold, she cared for those who did not desire the communism which took her family from her.

This helped ease her survivor's guilt as well.

Very few can remain unaffected by what she had gone through, and as a result of her trauma, Anastasia essentially divided Russia into 'Red' and 'White', caring for the latter while despising the former.

In the meantime, the Einzbern family was spreading its influence throughout Northern Europe as it stayed out of conflict against Mephisto Pheles' Grauzauberer. It helped that the communists were so iron fisted in their handling of everything and foolish enough to believe they could actually take on the supernatural world or even take control of it just because they had some Scared Gear users under their control and some devils supporting them.

I, personally, had nothing against the human organization. In fact, although mildly hypocritical, I believed humans needed some means of properly defending themselves, especially outside of Sacred Gears, so organizations focusing on them were rather welcomed. Hell, even though both are technically seen as being associated with devils, Grauzauberer and the Einzbern family have been rather good for humanities reputation in the supernatural world.

Outside of Europe, things were progressing on other continents.

Africa was undergoing rapid decolonization between the 1950's to the 70's as views on colonization itself shifted, thus creating many opportunities for those who knew how to take advantage of things.

So I created a new territory after negotiating with the African Deity Coalition. Using the Sahara Desert as a natural way to hide from humans, and then adding magical/technological means to bolster everything, I created Wakanda as a way to amuse myself a little.

The goal was to have a more easily accessed Neutral City in the human world instead of having people need to reach the Underworld all the time.

I managed to convince the African Gods/Spirits by bringing to them the various advantages of having such a place within their lands, how a gathering place for all their powerful people to develop further benefits them, the economic impact of creating a major trading hub and the personal gains they will undergo from having a centralized and lasting place of worship that will help their divinities.

So yeah, I was essentially recreating Wakanda, but without Vibranium, thanks to focusing more on an African aesthetic instead of simply creating another Azarothian city.

In South America, well we took over El Dorado to create a mildly similar set up as the burgeoning Wakanda, since it apparently existed and Quetzalcoatl knew about and thought it would be better to 'reuse' something like that city than let it crumble further.

With the fall of the Meso-American pantheons, the Chruch did its best to very aggressively take over, so gathering natives, who still remembered the 'old ways' and hidden tribes and forces who survived the fall, under Quetzalcoatl was a lot easier than anticipated. These people desperately wanted to hold onto whatever they could from their 'golden age', so having a city to help them recover and possibly go beyond it in safety as long as they agreed to Azaroth law's and whatnot was a good deal.

And in this vain I essentially opened branch cities in other areas of the world since I was on a roll.

A hidden 'underground' city built into the Grand Canyon and a well concealed one behind the Niagara Falls for North America.

There should be a plan to create a hidden city in Siberia as well, but that's on hold for now.

A similar takeover of the now defunct Kun Lun like what happened with El Dorado, except I had no one from the recently fallen Chinese Pantheon, only the permission of the Buddhist and Hindu pantheons as they pretty much had the final say on the Asian continent.

There was a second and third area in for Asia in Japan and Korea, for obvious reasons, using the reconstruction of Nagasaki and the Peninsula as a cover for everything and to essentially have nearly everything city under Azaroth. We can't control the entirety of Korea for even more obvious reasons that would cause significant friction with many pantheons, but we can do many things in secret there.

Incidentally, it was around this time that the Underworld managed to secure Kuoh town to work out of in the human world. They mildly followed my example and Sera did help them, but this was all on a loan basis since devils didn't have the greatest track record and they weren't me.

So yeah, busy time, but Azaroth was fully equipped to handle everything.

This 'expansion' did result in an increase in the Guards as new branches had to be opened for the new cities. That meant I was helping a few individuals grow.

For this we had an interesting set of experiments.

You see, while the Einzbern focused more on developing more powerful homunculi and growing their quantity and quality, I decided to play with some aspects of my powers as I felt some inspiration from the fictions of my past life.

One of those inspirations came from how Mutants, in the Marvel universe, were theorized that the 'X-gene', which is what makes a mutant/Homo Superior/whatever you want to call them have powers, was a sort of innate connection to the infinite dimensions or powers in existence. For example, Ice-man/Bobby Drake would be linked to an Ice Dimension/God/Entity which alters his body to better accommodate its energy, resulting in him being an awakened mutant. It isn't a perfect theory, but it does explain some of the mystical aspects of many mutant powers and the impossible variety.

So I had myself and Raven, who had been quite the pupil of mine in the use of Dimensional magic, work on this little project to essentially bring in more powerful soldiers, bloodlines, maybe Super geniuses or anything that could have the potential to help Azaroth really.

It wasn't exactly easy, but our already very advance homunculi arts and my experience in creating actual life allowed for us to make rapid progress.

As a result we now had the proper 'human' forces which would run and protect the new Neutral Grounds opening in the human world. Each leader was to be mid Satan-class in terms of power at least, with 1 low Satan-class as Second-in-Command and 10 High Ultimate-Class Captains overseeing the 5000 Troops in every Neutral Ground. This was to dissuade the more annoying individuals or at least hold them off until either myself, lovers, children, either mine, my wife or son's peerage, or other military forces comes to handle things.

Of course they didn't just reach their current levels immediately or without difficulties, its just that I abused the Astral Realm, my [Time/Space] and Azarath to develop them rapidly.

The first was the 'Queen of Wakanda', Ororo Storm.

I quite liked her abilities and character, hence I recreated the woman using data from Zenith Tempest, the much weaker version of weather manipulation by House Fleurety, and the divinities of gods, while managing to form her body perfectly using blood of old heroes such as Shango, Takhar and Sudika-mbambi to strengthen her and the bond she will have to Africa, and then connected everything together properly.

She turned out to be a beautiful African woman with a perfect body fit for a goddess, soft, flowing white hair like a cloud and clear blue eyes like the sky.

Personally, I have high hopes for her to eventually become someone who can rival Zenith Tempest with her own abilities.

The second one was Jessica Cruz, 'The Lantern which Brightens the Golden City'.

Jessica was a middle ground between what is to be preserved and what is to come, genetically speaking, essentially being the 'child' of myself and Quetzalcoatl due to the both of us shaping her thanks to my abilities and the goddess's roots. A strong, charismatic woman with long black hair flowing with flashes of green, bright green eyes and the real body of a super heroine.

Like her name suggests, her abilities are akin to a Green Lantern's from DC, but she doesn't require a ring due to the powers coming from a dimension filled with 'Will' energy that she can focus into any form she desires. The strength of her abilities comes from her own willpower as she needs it to move and reinforce the energy alongside the proper imagination.

Thankfully neither are a problem thanks to our training and ressources.

The man in charge of the Grand Canyon was James Proudstar, the 'Guide of the People'.

The Native American based warrior shaman was gifted with a highly enhanced body and very well refined set of skills, and powerful shamanic magic boosted by his connection to an animal spirit realm. He is strong, tall, with ruggedly handsome looks, shoulder length black hair and ruby eyes.

James helps guide people to the refuge for the true Native American tribes still alive, either through shamanic arts or way of life, even if he is perfectly trained to run the underground network in the Canyon.

In charge of the Niagara Falls sanctuary was Garth Tempest, the 'True Atlantean'.

After witnessing the slightly disappointing 'Atlanteans' of Poseidon's underwater domain, the thought of the DC and Marvel equivalents had crossed my mind quite a few times, so when I had the chance to make one, I did.

A strapping young man with short black hair, purple eyes, well muscled body and a set of gills on his neck that are easily concealable, Garth is exactly what I imagined an Atlantean to be. Powerful body perfectly suited for the deepest oceans and land, innate abilities to manipulate water thanks to my lovely wife and her family, Perseus, Caenis and many others, telepathic marine life communication/manipulation and magic.

He guards the entrance hidden within the falls and serves as quite the well liked leader.

For the Kun Lun Monastery, I created Shang-Chi, the 'Embodiment of Combat'.

Using the accumulated DNA of the best martial artists and warriors of all time, including people like Musashi and Scáthach from the supernatural world alongside new and future masters like Bruce Lee, Yip Man and Muhammad Ali, even the Kure Clan, I formed what should be the best baseline possible for a human warrior. Then I went a step further and connected the man to a dimension of life energy to give him extreme healing and Ki powers.

So although shorter and less large than James and Garth, Shang-Chi was an extremely powerful physical combatant. One many in my peerage and even myself can't wait to see 'grow'.

My last creation was Amadeus Cho, since I thought having created the best martial artist alone would be odd, so I did my best to have a new rival for Da Vinci as an inventor.

Like with Shang-Chi, I gathered the DNA of creative mind and brilliant minds, including Da Vinci's, to see how far things could go when they were paired with a Technopath. And that's how the young Korean super genius was born, with, much to his dismay, a cute face, fit body instead of muscular, black eyes and short black hair.

In the end I didn't even need to create anyone new for Nagasaki thanks to my closeness with the Shinto and Youkai, so I just sent a newly formed Guard team under the joint leadership of Vaas Asmodeus and Byleth Beelzebub, the great-grandchildren of the original and son/daughter of the Guard Captains of High Skaro.

That's how I unleashed new powerhouses into the world and caused a new wave.

But I wasn't done yet.

Eresh finally gave birth after over a decade of pregnancy, resulting in Jacquline Azaroth, The goddess of birth, childhood and death to be born.

Little Jack joining the world properly made many, many, many people send gifts and congratulations, a Azaroth wide celebration for my child and planet wide one on Azarath for the new goddess were also held.

My new daughter was adorable to no end, but much to my poor heart's dismay, she was a momma's girl. Jack preferred to stay with her mommy all the time and that made my lovely goddess gloat and look quite prideful, until I 'punished' her in semi-private. Having a harem is pretty be great.

Ophis recognized her little friend and became her self-appointed guard. The Infinite Dragon even tried to give her some cookies until we explained that she couldn't eat them yet. Then the loli dragon looked at her friend with pity as she encouraged her to grow up. But being born a goddess, especially one of childhood, would likely mean that unless necessary Jake would 'grow up' incredibly slowly, if at all once she reaches the cusp of her first period.

Overall though, it was cute and funny to see Ophis learn about babies.

Then I caused the 'Lamentation of Heaven'.

Meaning Gabriel and I finally consummated our love and all the angels went crying.

It probably didn't help that, because of all the measures in place to prevent Gabriel from falling, we went at it for three days straight. That might not sound like a lot at the moment, but that's on top of me changing that to 1 day = 1 year. So yeah, Gaby was pent up and I just blew through all of her desires by impregnating her very well.

Luckily the angels didn't know about the second part or they might have hung themselves, fallen or cried tears of blood since just the three days made them all cry due to their beliefs in only having 'pure' sex. This 'purity' usually makes love making rather short, if spiritually and emotionally fulfilling. Only when they saw Gabriel's still golden wings did they calm the heck down.

Azazel did come asking for some secret pics or videos because it was 'One of his biggest regrets in life to never see those heavenly orbs', but I beat him up and then threw him to Da Vinci so she can torture him, tease him and make things very awkward and embarrassing for him.

What followed was likely the most 'on guard' Heaven had been since the death of God from the Bible. I swear those sis-cons and Gabriel Simps were ridiculous when they tried to stop me from seeing my soon to be 4th wife and the mother of my next child. Fortunately for them, they realized just how bad an idea that was when I looked at them and raised my eyebrow, resulting in my passing through Heaven without having to beat up hordes of idiots.

I have to say, during her pregnancy, Gabriel probably looked like the holiest being I had ever seen. The soft smile constantly on her face as she cradled her slowly growing stomach, the light glow she seemed to have beyond the usual archangel aura, the natural warmth and motherly feeling, it made me smile subconsciously as I spent my time by her side, pampering her.

Gabriel's pregnancy took a lot less time than Eresh's, pretty much the same as Sera's, and in the end, my third daughter was born: Mariel Azaroth, Goddess of Light and Virtues. (Future appearance: Maria Campbell from My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! I thought it would go quite well as Gabriel's daughter. Sorry for those asking for Ulquiorra.)

Like Kal, she had been born with an intense showcase of her natural element, [Light] in this case, forming a beacon that let know for all watching from near and far that another little monster was just born. Her wings were actually shaped like a mixture of Devil and Angel, but they were positioned like Angel wings and made of pure light like my wings had been seemingly made of [Space].

With that, Azaroth and Heaven were strongly bonded allies as the child between Gaby and I cemented things and a very nice wedding in Heaven followed.

It was a modest affair due to Gabriel only really wanting our close ones present, which was still a line up of some of the most powerful people alive, but she and the girls loved it.

During the ceremony, as I put on her wedding ring, Eywa and I granted her full godhood to ascend as the Azarathean Goddess of Kindness, Peace and Forgiveness.

Surprisingly, my newest wife then brought everyone in for her first orgy right after everything was done. She wanted to 'indulge' a bit on her wedding night since we did have a three year session to get her over her shyness with sex already.

Had to get a babysitter, which was Amaterasu for Mariel and Hestia for Jack. Medusa is great at handling most things, but she is not particularly good with children due to some lingering traumas and her propensity to try to placate them with spoiling or giving whatever tantrum throwing children demand because of her two sisters.

Not that my daughters are difficult, Mariel truly fits the word 'Angel', but Jack can be rather adventurous due to her divinity related to childhood so a close eye is necessary in order to make sure she doesn't wander off. Then there's Ophis to worry about since she seems quite taken with 'small beings', that's why the motherly Hestia is good for handling them and the sisterly Amaterasu for being a bit stricter.

But in all this happiness, my children, my lovers, my family, well, I thought it was time for me to tie up a bit of karma I had left alone for too long.

Hence my destination, Hades' Palace.

-Realm of the Dead, Temple of Hades

'Gaudy.' I thought as I looked at the giant gilded temple with depictions of death or Hades decorations, doors and friezes.

There were Grim Reaper guards roaming around, some concealed beings and magic defenses, but that was all useless against me.

That's what happens when one exists outside of [Space/Time]. Unless Hades can surpass me in those areas and seal it completely, then it's too bad for him. That's what happens when you reach a transcendental level, anything below is simply that, below you. Restrictions, defenses, offenses, stealth, all of it can be bypassed by using what makes a transcendental being transcendent. Ophis can use her [Nothingness] to feel what is present due to lack of Nothing, go through any defenses below our level by being Nothings and no attack can reach her without breaching her Nothing, just like Great Red should be able to turn nearly anything into an Illusion or Dream and I can simply use [Space/Time] to manipulate things as I please.

Even mythical objects like Hades' Helm cannot conceal the user from us, with only our indifference stopping the user from being revealed and the True Longinus cannot harm us because even God's full power is far below us.

Some of the only exceptions are completely specialized things a level below us like Samael for Dragons, but if Ophis wasn't so… cocky then its poison wouldn't have had a chance to even touch her.

And that's why I could stand directly in front of Hades without the crazy skeleton knowing any better while he worked from his desk, typing away on the system governing souls of the dead.

He was taller than many, but still only a skeleton wearing gilded priest-like clothing with massive pauldrons to make him look larger. I've seen Sirzechs and Michael wear some too and I can never take them seriously when it happens. Those things look stupid and impractical.

"Graaah! Another Fake Bat created and another soul moving from the proper cycle! Now there's going to be bugs to fix again!" The god exclaimed in frustration as he threw his hat across the room. "If only that damnable project worked, I could have made all those bats disappear without being caught."

'That about lines up with everything I know about Hades. He hasn't received the Book of Lucifer from Apophis since the Primal Eclipse Dragon was still dead and Valerie Tepes hadn't been born yet to allow that to happen.

Although Zekram has let me know that Devil dissidents, old regime supporters and fools of all kind have been gathering around the old Satan faction, while the very same old Satans I had 'turned' way back informed me of the slowly forming Khaos Brigade, even if they don't have the name yet, and the birth of Ingvild Leviathan before WW1.

The girl is actually about to be transferred to the Sitri's in the hopes of awakening her according to the reports. They hate me a lot more than a 'True Noble' family like the Sitri, so they chose the second best healers in the Underworld to try and deal with the Sleeping disease affecting Ingvild.' I briefly thought as I made a note to keep an eye out for that.

She was my second Bishop candidate after all. A girl with the true gifts of House Leviathan, a Longinus and great potential in water and sound magics, perfect for my Bishop if possible.

It shouldn't be too difficult considering Azaroth has a great reputation and I already have Asmodeus and Beelzebub descendants amongst my people, plus Sera can help with that. I'll just need to play a little trick later.

"What's this now?" Hades spoke aloud as he took a message from a sparking eagle and read. "That stupid pervert! I warned him against allying with that blasted half-bat monster and now he wants me to go greet the brat? No way!"

With a ghostly green flame, Hades burnt the message and got back to work.

'Didn't expect him to not know I was an experiment of his, but maybe that's partially because of pride and the fact that I didn't reveal myself publicly until I was significantly matured and trained. His pride wouldn't easily admit to a 'failure' like myself he had disposed of, and likely forgotten immediately afterwards, could be so powerful or influential after failing for so long.' I thought as I analyzed the god before taking my leave.

The path to his secret workshop/laboratory was behind him, hence why I was even there.

From what I could see, this was a pretty good lab. It was between Ajuka and Azazel's labs/workshops and Da Vinci and Mine's. The difference was that Hades had better quality resources than those two 'rivals' while Hades had access to divinity as well, but we had that on top of being smarter, stronger and richer.

But it was almost a typical mad scientist obsessed with some form of biological science with all the containers filled with various liquids as they held organs, misshaped bodies, chimeric beings, inactive bodies and whatnot, just with some more magic as enchantments were woven around and different types of tests were recorded in front of each specimen.

I knew that Hades would never succeed without the book of Lucifer, his very being is antithetical of his goal. A god of the dead and the afterlife cannot create life, only death.

That's partially why I hadn't much cared about this part of my creation into this universe, it wouldn't change anything.

Rizevim might have 'saved' his mother's body, but this was never out of love since the man had no such feelings, simply a bit of 'honor' developed from his major sin of pride, until he let Hades have her for possible benefits in this reality. But until Hades obtained the necessary key, it wouldn't matter.

Hell, I was only here today because of the karmic ties between Lilith and I. I had no care for her, just some sympathy for her fate if not self-inflicted. I mean, who really wants to be a block of flesh? (Apparently how she ended up after Hades made a few hundred thousand new devils and some 'Super Devils', which the second part is bullshit even if I consider that he might have used the research of Super devils from Houses Nebiros and Naberius.)

So once I reached the depths of Hades' laboratory, where he had his deadliest and most secret of projects, I found the comatose body of my 'mother', Lilith herself.

Luckily the woman wasn't a 'block of flesh', but it wasn't a good state.

On the outside nothing seemed very wrong, long, luscious black hair floating behind her, a perfect seductress' beauty with a love spot below her left eye, full and supple lips slightly parted to allow a tube to go through, flawless white skin covering her sinful body as her large breasts, soft, long legs and erogenous zones were on full display. Perfect to suite the ex-wife of Adam himself and the 'mother of all devils'.

The problem was the inside. Her brain was near death as her brain activity was almost zero, her soul lay dormant and feeble, her astral body seemed to flicker as it too lay dormant, internal organs were decaying and basically only her heart was still functioning independently to keep her alive.

"So that's how you look huh? Mother." I simply stated with pity in my eyes as I looked at her. "So caught up in your revenge against God, Adam, Heaven and all of his creations that you ended up like this."

With a sigh, I began doing my work to copy everything in Hades' Lab and taking samples, then I looked at Lilith and shifted us and her life support systems away.

I had no doubt this would make Hades have a fit, but there would be no way for him to find me nor could he do anything about it anyway. How would he explain having Lilith and not turning her over to devils? Him having her body and me possessing the records of what he's done with it and why would essentially Damn him if he even tried being difficult too.

So I took us to Da Vinci's Lab on Azarath to keep absolute secrecy.

My lovers, family, peerage and close ones knew about Lilith and myself already. I simply explained that one day I grew curious of my past and used my [Time] to discover everything. They were obviously a bit miffed that I hadn't told them immediately, but were quick to forgive with some 'convincing'.

"So this is Lilith, the first true devil and mother of them all. Not the best state but it is fascinating that her body hasn't broken down already.

Her DNA is extremely weakened, likely due to how you told me the creation of devils vaguely worked, asexual reproduction places quite the strain on a body after all. Creating so many living beings with souls put her own under enormous stress.

The two combining should be why Lilith shut down and her body began falling apart. Two parts of the trinity which forms a true person being broken would heavily impact the third." Da Vinci quickly analyzed as we began working. "Any thoughts Lith?"

"Her body is done for. Plain and simple. There's only two ways to recover what was lost. The first is by creating a new one body, which is impossible right now thanks to her collapsing DNA. Even if we could make a new body, Lilith's soul won't take kindly to the transfer. That's why I have to make use of my [Time] to rewind the clock." I answered as I looked through the myriad possibilities. "The second starts from another angle and helps her soul recover enough first, so that her mind can begin functioning again, then helping her body. My DNA should be some of the closest to her own due to being a first generation, we can even go get some blood from Zekram Bael and that slumbering Gremory progenitor, Runeas Gremory, to see if we can 'fill in the gaps' as it were. After that we could help her cells recover and fix her organs.

But even with all that, the second option is much more difficult, even if the risks of her becoming hostile are lower."

"…The Astral realm really isn't an option since anyone going into her's would cause a collapse either, nor can we awaken her mind directly or it will cause her body to collapse at an accelerated rate and her soul would shatter. What a fun challenge. I think I'll try the second option first Lith, maybe even call Medea and Florence for a little girls-only project." My Bishop said with a twinkle in her intelligence filled blue eyes. "If it fails, then you can just rewind everything anyway, even if we can't do it too much or her soul will collapse.

Such a tricky project."

"Don't hesitate to ask myself, Eywa and Eresh for advice here. We are the resident experts on matters of the soul after all." I replied as I trusted her completely with this matter.

"No problem~" she cheerfully said with she began smiling widely. "Now my dear Lilith, let me fix this crumbling tower you've become."

_______________________________________

EXTRA AUTHOR NOTES:

This chapter is on the lower scale of my usual length, with my range being between 5000 to 9000 words on average, but I was just trying to show events mainly linked to Azaroth instead of trying to cram everything.

After this I should be able to start affecting the 'main cast' and working on modified canon events. Still working on all the modifications, but so far I'm thinking of keeping general flow of DxD while not directly focusing on them.

First up will be Ingvild and the Cleria Belial bit.

Now as for this chapter, I thought that only having the territories of Azaroth being Neutral Grounds would make things rather difficult for those wanting to reach it since you'd first have to be on Earth and then find a way down there or have the Black Pearl find you, so I decided that having new ones on every continent would be a good solution.

So yeah, Wakanda, El Dorado, Grand Canyon Reserve, Niagara Falls Sanctuary, Nagasaki, Korea, Kun Lun, and the Einzbern Lands will be the known ways of reaching Azaroth. I may add Jeanne's sanctuary later.

Then I added a few superheroes since some people were curious about if I would do so or just go full on Marvel or dc crossover due to Diana and Raven, sorry for those who don't like me just putting some characters in but they aren't important and it was mostly for a bit of fun.

From DC we have Jessica Cruz, a green lantern, and Garth, a Aqualad later known as Tempest.

From Marvel we have two mutants, James Proudstar, an Apache warrior shaman, and Ororo Munroe, the x-man weather goddess, their greatest martial artists now on chi steroids, Shang-Chi, and a super genius up there with the likes of Reed Richards and Tony Stark, Amadeus Cho.

Anyway, by popular demand and questioning, I have rescued Lilith.

Everything I wrote there about Hades not having the Book of Lucifer which allows Lilith to 'birth' new devils somehow because Apophis is dead and can't give it to him, because somehow the dead Dragon knows where it's at and not Rizevim, is according to wiki. So is the fact that she apparently turned into a 'block of flesh' after Hades was done with her, but it said that Rizevim found her decaying body before he passed it on, so I'm going with that + an explanation for her basically being brain dead.

But now the question remains: what am I going to do with her?

I feel like turning her into Azarath's goddess of Evil, sins, chaos/nothingness since those aspects are necessary for any intelligent species and she is the 'mother' of the 'creator', but I'm not 100% sure. I'm also debating on how to make her act or if I should somehow rewind her to before she likely became a hated filled demoness who wants to conquer the earth to spite God and Adam.

Dilemmas.

Suggestions can be appreciated.

And finally, Jack returns and might just stay an eternal loli thanks to some suggestions regarding her divinities. I took away murder and just gave her birth and death to signify her 'past life' on top of having her greatest desire for a proper childhood becoming her domain. Meanwhile we now have little Mariel since I couldn't bring myself to make Gabriel's children an edgelord, emo or anything other than the nicest girl. Being a goddess of Light and Virtues fits quite well with [Light] being something that interacts a lot with [Space/Time] while being Gabriel's main element and Virtues coming from how both her parents technically have strong connections to concepts of sins and virtues, but she popped out of Gabriel so she got just the virtues in the end.

Anyway, hope it was still good.

Like I said earlier, should be starting on getting some pre-canon events going as things pick up. I think I'm gonna do right by it, but I'm sure people are going to let me know.

Enjoy.
