Operation: Godfather

The next day I went back to the Library and had nice small talk over the book with Lucia while Vivian returned to me. After bidding another farewell to Lucia I talked to Vivian as she reported her findings.

(There was no man of your description just an unremarkable middle aged man) Vivian reported in my mind. (Is she cheating?)

"No. That's not it, that's the person I'm looking for, he's just in a disguise."

(I see, so what do you want to do Master?)

"I want you to continue watching them, take not of everything she likes and dislikes and anything she says about me, then every time I come to the Library report to me before going back, rinse repeat." I gave her her new orders.

[Sugar Mommy comments quietly: Psycho]

[The Stream defends it's Master as it calls Sugar Mommy a pot and that she's only jealous because it's Master isn't obsessed with her like this]

[Sugar Mommy calls blasphemy]

[The Stream announces that it is unable to say anything but the truth]

(Alright, but if I may ask what is the end goal that you seek here Master? To take a man's wife?)

"I want to replace a man so smoothly that it just seems like a regular course of events."

(You want to take this man's entire life?)

"Precisely." I smiled.

(You're vile Master)

"Thank you."

For the next month me and Vivian tag teamed Lucia, I went over to the library and made small talk with everything that Vivian reports to me, climbing the board in Lucia's friends.

Vivian then reports to me before returning to watching Lucia, slowly I spent more time with Lucia becoming more important in her life until I was her best friend, sharing topics other than just books, we even talked outside of the Library, while the whole time I made sure to make 0 romantic moves, she had even announced her pregnancy to me.

I guess no one has taught her about boy best friends.

Today I was going to met her Husband/Veldanava, I should be safe as his powers are gone, but he's the God of this world there's a chance he can sense what I am, maybe like a connection between races.

If I had my library I wouldn't worry too much, could just use the abilities of The Fool to fool his senses, but I don't have that option, so I've got to improvise with my preparations.

'Could I send a clone? Would it still activate his senses towards a Dragon? Can he sense that it's a Clone? Plus I can't trust a Clone of myself, I could fuck myself over just for the fun of it, Clones should only be used in battle.' I contemplated seriously as a laid my head between Carrera's thighs while she played with my hair.

"Can I help with your plan Darling?" Carrera asked.

"Maybe, I could use the thoughts." I gave her a basic rundown on what I'm doing, but not the full reason, all I told her was that I was going to go see a weakened version of the God of this world and I wanted him to not notice that I'm a Dragon(Technically).

"Hm…that's a hard one, could you create a Human version of you and control it from a distance?" Carrera suggested.

"…You're a genius." I turned around and kissed her.

"I know." Carrera smugly grinned. We took a shower after.

The next day I had used [Universal Authority] to create another me that was Human before controlling him like an RC car.

The reason for meeting Veldanava at their house was simple, Lucia wanted to hold a celebration for her pregnancy and invited her friends, it was only her friends since Veldanava didn't have any, so of course I was invited as Lucia's best friend.

*Knock!* *Knock!*

I knocked on the hard wooden medieval door before waiting for a few seconds for the door to be answered. And a few seconds was all that was needed as Lucia opened the door in a beautiful dress and flowers in her hair.

"Oh! Lucious you're finally here." Lucia smiled brightly at me while rubbing her growing belly softly.

"Sorry I'm late was kind of caught up." I chuckled awkwardly.

"No no it's fine, you're fashionably late." Lucia laughed as gestured for me inside. "No need to be outside any longer come in."

I entered with a humble smile as I looked around the house.

There were little decorations everywhere most likely all down by Lucia, there wasn't much furniture just the minimum required. On the tables there was food and drinks waiting for the guests but all in all it was a simple and cozy home.

My eyes then left the home to see the people inside. In all there were 8 people 6 girls and 2 guys. One was obviously Veldanava and another was a guy who seemed to be in the closet, how could I tell? Well the way he carried himself and looked at the women around him, it just wasn't the way a man was.

'Should've taken that guy as your best friend Lucia, well not like you had a choice.'

"Now that everyone's here let's begin." Lucia announced.

As the party progressed I flirted with the girls around and made jokes, becoming an all around likable person by everyone here, maybe a little too much because closet gave me some weird gazes that sent bad shivers down my spine.

However finally the time came where I met Veldanava.

It didn't feel as intimidating as I expected because he was in disguise and had lost pretty much all of his powers.

"Hello, nice to meet you I'm Lucia's Husband." Veldanava greeted stiffly as he reached his hand out.

"Pfft- Honey you need to say your name as well." Lucia commented in the background, it seems she was looking for to this interaction.

"Ah, I'm sorry. Hello, nice to meet you I'm Vincent, Lucia's Husband." Veldanava redid his introduction.

"Better." Lucia commented in the background.

"Nice to meet you as well Vincent, I'm Lucious, Lucia's best friend." I shook his hand.

"How sweet." Lucia commented again.

"Would you like to play Chess?" I offered as I saw the board game on the table.

In my past life chess was a game I liked playing as a pass time, I wasn't that good but I was decent, no matter who I lost to or how bad I always liked the game because I learned after each match.

"Sure." Veldanava nodded and sat at the table, I could tell that he was looking forward to this as well.

30 minutes into the match and we were still going, with my enhanced intelligence from my system I was able to see so much more than in my first life allowing me to contest with Veldanava, but that didn't matter as I lost in the end, no matter how much smarter I became and how much weaker Veldanava had became, he still used to be the God of his world and hadn't lost that intelligence whatsoever.

This match of chess taught me that although he isn't Omniscient anymore, does not mean that he isn't still a threat when it comes to mental games lie what I'm doing right now, trying to take his family.

'He's probably noticed that there's something wrong with me but it's impossible for him to know exactly, I'll just continue like this.' I studied his unchanging expression before giving him a smile.

"Another match?"
