Coalition

I groaned as the sun hit my face, waking me from my slumber. As soon as my mind cleared enough to register my surroundings, I heard a sloshing sound coupled with low moans. It wasn't hard to know what was happening especially when I felt my painfully hard dick sheathed in a wet and warm mouth with a tongue swirling around the tip.

I opened an eye and glanced at Albedo who was entranced with sucking my dick. She had closed her eyes and sucked in her saliva only to swallow it like she was carefully tasting an exquisite wine. "Fuck." I called out, making Albedo aware that I was awake. Her eyes shot open to search mine, though before she could release me from her delightful mouth to greet me with a good morning, I wrapped my legs around her neck while I pulled on her horns, forcing her deeper.

She sputtered as my dick entered her throat and her eyes turned cross-eyed, while her face turned red. Her hands went to my thighs as if to pry herself free, an instinctive reaction that she was new to. Given the nature of the array and its setup, she had been severely weakened by the divinity to the point that she could even suffocate when I played with her throat too hard like I was doing now.

Obviously, she wasn't going to pull away, I could see it in her delighted eyes that were high on my desire for her. However, it wasn't just my desire for her that absolutely pleased her. No, it was the fact she could finally show how deep her devotion and love went, to the point where she would disregard her own life to give me just a bit more pleasure.

Even now when she was suffocating with my dick in her throat and her nose smashed against my groin, she didn't use her arms to pull herself out of my hold instead she used them to cradle my balls with one while the other caressed my abs. "I'm cumming soon," I informed her as I loosened my hold on her, which only invigorated her. Her face was already changing colors, but regardless of anything else, she opted on bobbing her head up and down my length.

Only when my tip was the only thing in her mouth did she take a quick inhale through her nose, though I wasn't sure whether it was to breathe or to inhale the scent of my saliva-covered dick and balls so close in front of her?

It was such a lewd action that my dick instinctively flexed inside her throat, causing her to moan. Her speed increased even further until it almost seemed like she wanted to crush my pelvis with her face. Though despite her speed, she showed off her skills as a high-level succubus. Her face turned and twisted as she bobbed her head, giving me different angles with each thrust. The sensation was different yet better with each bob, giving me all I needed to arrive.

I pulled on her horns as I pushed my hips toward her. Once, twice, I thrust a couple of times, causing the room to resound with clapping sounds as I started to unleash my load down her throat, which responded by constricting and milking me for all I was worth. Even when I tried to pull out it tried to keep me inside with a vicious grip that made me question whether she was truly weakened by my domain.

After pulling out and cumming the entire way, I was released with a pop as I continued to spray all over her face. Bubbles formed as she finally breathed through the layer of cum followed by coughing as it entered down her wrong pipe, while I slumped back into the bed feeling drained before the lethargy was eliminated by the rush of energy circulating through my body due to the cultivation technique I stole from some other universe.

Some of it entered Albedo, invigorating and strengthening her, while the lion's share elevated my tree to greater heights. I took deep breaths as I watched her scoop up the several centimeters thick layer of cum and deposit it into glass vials. I turned my head toward the gap in the door where a green-haired woman peeked through it.

Our eyes met and hers widened with the realization that she had been caught. I didn't say anything and just leaned back and closed my eyes again. I wasn't going to fall asleep again, but I just wanted to relax for a moment until the day started again. Tatsumaki, the peeping tom, seemed to have taken my actions as an invitation since she entered my bedroom.

Yuri was hot on her heels, which indicated that they had been taking turns to watch. I wouldn't blame them as I had intentionally left that gap for the next rotation. It had been 4 days already since the rift appeared and Fubuki had already proposed a rotation for who would serve during my stay. The schedule had been accepted though Albedo had been the one to have two people attend me during my stay instead of one, much to the delight of the royal maids and the Pleiades.

One maid was going to stay with me at all times. Of course, the maids are being rotated as well. I had been against both arrangements as more movement would increase the risk of information leaks, but they weren't going to take a no for an answer since they were worried about my 'health'.

Not like I would go sick if I abstained from any sexual activities for a while... actually, I wasn't sure about that. In the end, I relented to their request, knowing it would be as difficult or even more difficult for them to endure a long period of abstinence.

There was such a thing as too much of a good thing, so it stayed at two when they noticed I was willing to compromise. However, I needed to digest the gains of my cultivation, and fucking two people until they fall unconscious gave me enough time to do so.

There was also the possibility of someone seeing the regular exchange, but I wasn't too worried. It wasn't like anything in the world could threaten me besides Yggdrasil, which was locked behind an immensely powerful array whose mysticism was beyond whatever it knew. Of course, it would easily dissect it like I could and observe it for any weaknesses. Having regular exchanges that entered and exited the barrier would only reveal these.

Even if I didn't have any people exit and enter the barrier, it didn't mean these weaknesses would disappear, so it was best for me to actively observe the changes that happened when they rotated. I was no slouch in the matter. I investigated it for any prodding attempts every morning, though by now nothing had been enough to make a dent.

After Albedo cleaned herself up, we cuddled a bit while Tatsumaki and Yuri were watching us from the side. The succubus should have already rotated out last time, but she was allowed to stay for now as she learned the other part of the cultivation. It would make it more effective for both sides, so she was the one responsible to learn and then share it with the rest.

This meant that those who came after this rotation would be able to receive my blessings. I could have also just used Albedo, but different women would bring different advantages. I changed the technique to a degree that it would serve the growth of my tree the best. I didn't need to cultivate like the rest of the plebs, I just needed to fuck different women and get ridiculously strong because of it.

Of course, I had already spread the technique to the others, but Albedo was the only one with experience and would do her best to share it. It was her excuse for why she collected my semen in the last two days. Obviously, I didn't believe her, but I kept it to myself.

My hands glided over Albedo's body, causing it to shiver before I slapped her ass. She took it as the signal that it was and reluctantly stood up with a whine. I followed her as my armor spread across my skin again and morphed into some royal clothes. Still glad that I gave my armor the ability to shapeshift. It was really convenient as no one would think I had my best gear on when I was chilling in bed with just some pants on.

While ignoring the intense stares of my secret weapon, Tatsumaki, and my current maid Yuri Alpha, I stepped out onto the balcony of the room and gazed outside. My domain was part of my being and since it fused or empowered the array, I knew everything there was to know. Nothing would come in or get out without my notice.

It wasn't like Brain's domain where he heightened his senses to the limit inside a certain range. It wasn't just my awareness that was nigh absolute, so I wasn't truly worried about possible break-ins. The only thing I was worried about was being overwhelmed. If Yggdrasil tried hard enough by convincing all the World Enemies to work with it and exerting its own domain onto mine then I would be in trouble. All the power wouldn't do much if my target was unaffected by my powers.

This was part of the reason why I was compelled to oversee the situation with my own two eyes. My gaze pierced through the veils and even looked into the nothingness that filled the gaps between realities. I watched and waited for something to bite me in the ass.

Of course, I didn't truly need to watch with my physical eyes. In fact, if I sensed it with my divinity, it would suffice, though there would be a delay in my response time. The delay might be negligible for normal mortals, but in the perspective of Yggdrasil and I, it spelled certain victory.

Either way, what else would there be to do outside? Should I visit other countries and leave my barrier unsupervised? Certainly, there had been plans to act on the international stage with my 'war' against the demon. There were plans to make the many nations bow at my feet willingly and enthusiastically. And it would help as they could act as my canon fodder, but were canon fodder really necessary?

The last few days I had been thinking about what I could do. How I should prepare. What could I do better? There were too many choices and paths I could take. Advantages and disadvantages came along with each of them. In the end, I was only able to come to one conclusion in the clutter of ideas and theories.

The stronger I was the less the masses were needed.

A single level 100 mob would be an unsurmountable entity for this world. Perhaps the dragon lords could contend with most things of Yggdrasil, but dragon lords were numbered beings of this planet. There were probably less than a dozen still alive and willing to fight. Besides them, the many nations could be easily convinced to join me.

However, I couldn't run around in an elaborate act for the mortals, so they would follow me into battle after I saved them from the demon that had terrorized them.

No, they had to follow me because I was a God in their eyes and an enemy which threatened their world was at their doorsteps. I was the only one powerful enough to help them. The world wouldn't be able to give me the strength to beat Yggdrasil and even Nazarick was of minimal help. I couldn't be distracted and run around doing fuck all…

They knew of the dangers that the tree posed and if they didn't maybe I should show them. My barrier touched the In-Between, the Outside, the Beyond.

Even now I noticed a minor Chaos Beast slip into my domain before being crushed and pulverized into pure energy, feeding the soil my tree grew on. A beast that was comparable to a level 87 mob in Yggdrasil. Truly an insignificant being in the eyes of Yggdrasil and a weakling I could crush, but a doomsday scenario for this New World.

Here I felt the might of my foe and the chaos dwellers. A weakling it might have been, but they were abundant like sand on a beach. It was a guarantee that there would be a pebble in the sand. It made me realize that I should hurry and stop fiddling my thumbs. Everyone else should wake up to the dangers as well.

Although I would despise causing pain in the world, sometimes it was the thing that made people realize what needed to be done. I took a deep breath of the heavily divine-infused air and let myself soak in the moment.

"I will be going then," Albedo whispered as she hugged me from behind as if to support my back, before tip-toeing to kiss me on the cheek. I smiled slightly as I watched her go. Yuri and Tatsumaki stood to the side. My secret weapon looked guilty after seeing my affection for Albedo, not daring to meet my eyes. I knew why, it was hard not to miss something in this realm, but I didn't mention it.

My gaze turned toward the swaying World Tree. I have opened Pandora's box and regained my immense potential and ability to learn anything even if it was restricted to a race. With the Chaos Crystal, I had access to pure Chaos, to the very essence that made up everything. Chaos magic was now an ever-companion in my day-to-day actions.

The blueberry bush enhanced my magic even further with every berry I ate. It also allows my companions to grow to their current limits. Soon, they would have reached level 100 and could give me some support in the upcoming battle. The Whispering Tome saved my ass by providing me with an array and a cultivation method to face the odds I was confronted with.

The Celestial Radiance built the core of my tree, making it divine in nature, and allowed me to create any angels inside my domain as long as I had enough energy to create a life of even the highest order. The Astralroot Scepter was my conduit to manipulate the connection between worlds, allowing me to traverse dimensions, and manipulate reality to a certain degree.

Flora's Embrace Vial allowed me to grow plants of distant universes and accelerate the growth of any plant of existence. It was still with Sueko, who was watching the process of a certain plant or herb. Under normal circumstances, it would take several thousand years for these plants to grow, but with an endless vial of that stuff, it took mere days…

7 out of my 10 items were already used and it was time- Wait, the Flora's Embrace Vial could grow any plant! The only reason why we couldn't just instantly grow whatever we wanted was because the caliber of plants I needed had some strict requirements that transcended time, something that couldn't be overcome with some stimulant albeit divine, making it impossible to force instant growth.

Just like the space dao fruit had some connection to time, there were some restrictions to its growth. Sueko had done her best to accelerate it to a few hundred thousand times, which in the end meant that it ripened in a few days instead of the hundreds of thousands or even millions of years. Yeah, shit was ridiculous, but it was worth it in the end… My phone saw some extensive usage, after all.

Of course, that didn't mean there was no way around it or that no plants could experience instant growth. If one could monitor the environment and control everything inside, it would be easy to grow anything at insane speeds. This meant… Although my tree wasn't a real plant, it was still a spiritual one that needed vitality so it should still work.

If I chugged down an endless amount of Flora's Embrace's nectar and used it to accelerate the growth of my tree, I could get stronger at insane speeds. Not only would I grow stronger, but the armor bound to my existence would grow simultaneously, which meant that the output of my armor's energy would increase as well.

This energy could then be used to create angels. However, creating life, especially powerful angels of the highest order out of nothing demanded lots of energy, which meant I needed more time or grow stronger. Simply said I grow stronger. I get more energy. I could create angels faster. An army of angels of the highest order wouldn't be impossible, but there was a tiny problem.

If I wanted to create an army capable of helping me in a battle with Yggdrasil, I needed to be so powerful that their participation wouldn't matter any longer. I could sacrifice some soul energy of my domain and jumpstart the first few angels, but I wasn't going to risk weakening the only thing that prevented Yggdrasil from entering this world to create an army that wouldn't be a deciding factor in the war.

Maybe if I focused only on existing angels or used new souls to turn into higher-ranking angels then I could gather a small but powerful army. Just as I continued to hash out the details of using my hacks as a shortcut to ultimate power, something at the edge of my domain caught my attention.

…

"There it is," Leinas Rockbruise exclaimed as she looked at the place where the angel was said to reside. It had been only a few days since she had departed toward the Baharuth Empire to exert her revenge against those who had wronged her. However, once she saw the tear that opened up the sky, she knew that her savior might need any help he could get.

She wasn't arrogant enough to think that her power would be significant in the angel's eyes, but there might be something she could help with. Carrying luggage or as a messenger, she was willing to do anything that could help. She smiled wryly as she thought about how readily she had abandoned her revenge, the very thing she had yearned for all these years. Of course, this wouldn't be the end of it.

She had waited years what would be another month or another year? This was an opportunity to show her gratitude and appreciation for the angel who had healed her, something that might not appear ever again. With that in mind, she decided to take a detour toward the Elven Kingdom. And with detour, she meant a 90-degree angle into another direction.

It would be worth it, she told herself. After all, showing her appreciation and gratitude wasn't the only reason why she sought out the angel. Ever since she had left, it felt like she had lost an opportunity or that she was moving away from what she truly desired. She couldn't really understand her emotions and she certainly didn't think she was enamored with the angel after meeting him once.

He was incredibly handsome and the way he spoke and moved conveyed his charisma and elegance as a noble creature. His voice was smooth and baritone, communicating in a gentle but commanding way. An authority one could trust and turn to. A guiding hand who would welcome you even during your most difficult moments.

Her savior gave her the light when she was lost in the dark. A light which made all her thoughts of revenge and her vanity appear insignificant in comparison… Perhaps, she did have a slight crush on him.

However, he wasn't something she could reach for. She had heard the rumors and saw how the followers of his religion practiced their beliefs, but that was just the interpretation of people. Could this possibly be something he truly stood for? He was an angel of lust after all and his wife had publicly endorsed it.

Did he truly have multiple wives? If Leinas was completely honest, she wasn't interested in the answer to that exact question as it didn't affect her directly, instead, she just wanted to know, could she lay with him? Could she grace and serve his Holiness? Could she thank him for all eternity to repay him?

Would he accept her and her feelings?

She closed her eyes and thought back to the moment after he had cured her. The way he looked, so lonely and guilty as if he lamented that he couldn't do more for her. The images were burned into her mind, his downcast gaze with half-lidded eyes. Although the specific escaped her mind, she could feel it in her core. It left an empty pit inside her that she knew couldn't be filled. She made him feel like this and she should pay for her sins.

Her closed eyes trembled and her jaw clenched as she imagined being tied up naked and whipped for her insolence. He would use her holes to please him, while she could only exist as his pleasure tool from henceforth. His semen would cover her body and cleanse her from the earthly dirt that accumulated during her life.

Her nipples grew hard as she imagined these glorious sights, causing them to scrape against her plate armor through the cloth she wore underneath. Her panties were sullied and it almost frustrated her that she was covered in armor, preventing her from reaching down to quench the fire in her core. Fortunately, she was still conscious enough to remember where she was.

Her eyes abruptly opened before scanning the area. There were no elves in this forest. It was a rather strange sight, considering she was already deep inside elven territory. The elven kingdom or as most human nations recognized the land of the elves, Elf Country. When they spoke of the elven kingdom most would think about the king, an elf strong enough to dominate the entire nation he resided in. A king who didn't care about his subjects. Therefore, it wasn't the elven kingdom, but the Elf's Country.

Though the situation had escalated after the 4 days, even the Elf King would need to address the issue at hand or at least retaliate against those who had openly sent spies into his country. However, nothing had been heard from the elves or their strongest member of the race.

Her gaze wandered across the empty plains just in front of what could only be the capital of the city. She had never been here personally, but the scale made it quite clear that this had to be the capital made by a usually low-key race. However, for some reason, the fortress in the middle didn't quite fit the image of the rest of the place.

Many theories ran through her mind, but she wasn't sure what had happened here. Had there been a huge fight or was it still ongoing? Did the elves and the Lord Angel sacrifice themselves to block this dreadful tree? Her gut sunk at that thought.

Just as she planned her next approach and how to prevent causing an issue on a national level, a rustling gave away the position of someone or something else close by. Her gaze fell on a young attractive woman, who exited the edge of the forest surrounding the empty plains around the capital.

Leinas was surprised to see who it was. Divine Chant. A priestess of the Slane Theocracy. From what she heard, the other woman was quite the impressive priestess, but she had to be suicidal to just walk into the open like that. Leinas' eyes searched for the others who were observing the situation from the safety of the thicket like her.

Was someone going to attack her? Or were they using her to test the fields? She glanced toward the capital and the noticeable line carved across the plains. A circle around the capital. On one side, on the outside, the grass was green and lively, while on the inside the color dulled slightly. It was a subtle difference, but because it was consistent across the entire field, it became obvious.

The others and she all realized that there was an area of effect around the fortress. Most would stay seated and just watch the first fool to walk into that area, but it seemed until now no one had done so. Perhaps, she had been too late to see it, though then the others wouldn't be this passive.

She had to be one of the first to arrive, but she knew that more powerful unknown entities had already arrived, entities that would stay away from the public eye all year long. Not to mention, every second more would arrive, making her reluctant to be the first to show herself.

Divine Chant seemed to be alone and carefree with the way she continued to tread toward the area. She too was a veteran, experienced enough to know to be cautious, so why did she just walk into the field like that? Where was her team? Perhaps she was truly alone here? Like Leinas Rockbruise, a member of the Four Imperial Knights, was?

"Lord Azazel!" The priestess called out and it felt like she was seeing herself in the field. It was something she wanted to do when she saw the situation but had restrained herself. Seeing the other woman do it, made her want to join her.

Her eyes snapped to a minotaur, whose snout caught light first as it exited the edge of the forest. Before she consciously caught up on what she saw, she was already on the move. She wasn't sure why, but she felt a faint but deep connection to the priestess. Like a long-lost sister whom she recognized instinctually.

Her body shot toward the priestess and fortunately arrived before the minotaur could. She picked the priestess up and ran toward the dull area. She knew if the minotaur arrived first, it would break the priestess' legs and throw her into the area to see what would happen to her. Although she shouldn't help the other woman, she couldn't stand the thought of her being injured.

She wasn't a good person, deep inside she knew that, but for some reason, she felt an intrinsic need to save this foolish priestess. She shot across the plain, wanting to circle around the barrier and away the minotaur, "Don't worry, I can handle him-" Divine Chant spoke with confidence and Leinas was inclined to believe her.

The priestess was at the top in terms of human combatants, but in the end, she was primarily a healer and supporter. "I already scanned the ones around; they will burn if they try-" Divine Chant's voice cut off abruptly.

"I'm not worried about them. I'm worried about-" Leinas felt a cold shiver run down her spine as she watched the few individuals stepping out of the thicket in front of them. There were a few she had previously detected; more she wasn't aware of. They looked at them like guinea pigs.

There was even a Night Lich and no one seemed to pay any attention to him. If only Lord Azazel was still here, they wouldn't have dared to corner them like this. "Tch." She ran toward the affected area.

They wouldn't be able to make it out of this encirclement alive and if they survived they would be thrown into the area without their limbs. She took the bet and rushed toward it, hoping that it was a spell that had lost its effectivity. After all, the grass wasn't completely withered away. Her chances would be better than facing the entities that surrounded them.

They didn't stop or hinder them in any way. This was what they wanted in the end. If they walked willingly, they wouldn't need to drag them. The moment she took her first step into the area, she felt different. Invigorated. Strong. Safe. Horny…

And she wasn't the only one feeling this as Divine Chant's expression blushed as they entered the area without resistance. "Huh? I didn't expect you two- Wait, how did you get in here?" A voice suddenly called out. They turned toward the Lord angel Leinas had been yearning for in the sky, standing there as he watched them with a frown on his face.

"Is it because you are part of my domain?" He muttered, but because of the distance, she couldn't hear him clearly. "Yes- No, it's just part of it…my domain... Is it because they were touched by my powers? Touched by the Emanations that make up my current domain…? So, they could enter because they were touched by the same divine laws or divinity that it didn't register as foreign...?"

His eyes widened in realization. "Fuck." He turned around just as several figures popped into existence. Angels with wings spread out far and other figures of immense strength that warped the space around them. A coalition of the divine.
