106 Call To Arms.

Maulketh opened a large gate to the Divine Realm and crossed over in front of Egdronoth mountain throne. As he walked, Gram and Laevatein floated around him as they wanted to be around.

When Maulketh walked through, he watched a scary thing as he saw the Demon God sitting in front of a giant pool of liquid Infernity. The Demonic energy was boiling and blazing as if lava and poor Liliana was being held over with telekinesis.

The giant form of the Demon God had a finger raised above his armrest as he held Liliana in a telekinetic hold. He had a small grin on his demonic face as he watched as the poor girl squirmed and cried for mercy. 

She was being slowly lowered, but she struggled hard. When she saw Maulketh, huge lines of tears covered her beautiful face as she reached out for him.

"MASTER!"

Maulketh shook his head as he looked at Egdronoth.

"You should know better, if you want her stronger you can't just use Infernity, you should also even it out with Divinity. She will need it."

The Demon nodded.

"I see. I will correct this."

She snapped his fingers, converted some of his Infernity into Divinity, and mixed it in with the pool. This turned the pool into a knockoff version of Maulketh's Tyrranic Essence, but that was just the first ingredient. 

Maulketh walked over and held out one of his giant limbs. He stabbed one of his claws into his palm through his armor and scales. When he brought it out, on the tip of his claw a single drop of his reddish-purple blood rested. 

He dropped it into the pool causing it to be infused with Maulketh's tyrannical energy. 

"There we are."

Liliana struggled even harder as she tried to get out of the hold of the Demon.

"NOOOOOO! ANYTHING BUT THAT!"

Maulketh chuckled as he reached out and took her into his giant hand. He then reverted to his human form still the same height as before. Though now, Liliana was held in his right arm.

She wrapped her arms around Maulketh and cried her eyes out.

"It was horrible, that Demon did all kinds of unspeakable things to me."

Egdronoth scoffed as he rested his head on his knuckle. 

"I did no such thing."

Liliana turned around and glared at him feeling more confident now that her real master was here.

"You tossed me into a Tyrranic Spring and left me there for days. You made me fight giant monsters and eat them raw. Made me eat those herbs, gave me over to the alchemists who fed me those awful potions, that blacksmith made me forge swords with my bare hands and when I failed he hit me on the head with a hammer." 

Egdronoth snorted. 

"My daughter could do all that when she was 5. You who were created by the master should be able to do the same and more." 

Liliana snorted as she hugged Maulketh tighter. 

"Your daughter is a freak of nature." 

Egdrnoth shrugged. 

"And I am proud of it. To go against the natural order is praiseworthy isn't it my Lord." 

Maulketh nodded. 

"Of course, now then, don't waste my blood." 

Just as she was going to say something Maulketh tossed her into the pool. All that energy began to rush into her body and was about to force her to experience agonizing pain.

But Maulketh was a softy for his women so his Domain fell on her and helped her out. He got rid of her pain, helped her assimilate the pure energy more easily, and tapped into her latent potential.

The Law of Tyrrany brought order to the mixture and gently upgraded her bloodline. Considering he used his own energies to make her the first time, this was easy for her and him.  With his help, it would only take a few minutes to get down.

Egdronoth snorted.

"Master, you should not coddle her."

Maulketh knew that, but he was going to because he wanted to. 

"Cut the poor girl some slack. Anyway, how do you feel Liliana."

Liliana sighed in pleasure as she felt herself grow stronger with her master's help.

"Wonderful, but I want something else."

She looked at Maulketh's crotch which made him smirk.

'You'll get it later naughty girl.'

She blushed hard as she submerged herself to hide her face. Meanwhile, Maulketh looked at his left arm. More importantly, the now empty Boosted Gear. However, it was not truly empty as Ddraig's soul had left powerful soul energy behind.

More importantly, it had been in contact with Maulketh for nearly 4,000 years. It had been at his side when he had a Principle, a Concept, and now a Law. Each time it evolved with a new level of Tyranny.

It was time to make it truly his own. The Law of Tyrrany fell upon the Gauntlet and using the soul imprint Ddraig left, fed those with Maulketh's pure Aether. But most importantly, Maulketh cut off a small shard of his soul which instantly rocked his world with agony. 

He brought out the soul shard and had it replace Ddraig who was now free. He fused his soul shard, fed it on his Aether, and grew new sentience to the Boosted Gear. Once this was complete, it bound to Maulketh's soul as his third Symbol of Power.

'There we go.' 

He focused a bit on the wounded part of his soul and forced himself to heal. Now, he had a perfect trinity of three Symbols of Power.  Gram The Tyrrant Emperor Sword, Laevatein the Blade of Tyrrany, the Boosted Gear which needed a new name. A name that would make Maulketh proud.

He thought about it as the Boosted Gear warped around his arm until it took its new form.

"I know just the name, The Tyrrant's Gear."

Laevatein went silent while Gram snorted.

Maulketh looked at both his swords who were floating in front of him.

"What?"

Laevatein came in closer and bonked him on the head.

"Your naming sense is shit."

"Maybe so, but I thought it was cool."

Gram spun around.

"Makes sense."

Mauleth shook his head as he looked at his black gauntlet.

(Tyrrant's Gear)

(Gram)

(Laevatein)

"So then, what are you."

He took a moment to listen to the first words of his Symbol of Power. 

"Something." 

"And just as I thought, another male. Sometimes I wonder why my sentient Symbols of Power were not ladies." 

Laevatein flew next to him with a snort. 

"One reason, you are the definition of a male dragon now. Anything coming from you will be male." 

"Wait, does that mean I can't have daughters?" 

Gram thought so. 

"Most likely." 

Maulketh sighed in relief. 

"Thank me. I would have been forced to add them to my harem to keep them safe from any grubby male hands." 

The Tyrrant's Gear went silent as he said his thoughts on the manner. 

"That makes sense to me." 

Laevatein snorted at the newcomer. 

"Of course you do, we all came from Maulketh here, except Gram." 

Gram did not indulge him with a response. 

"No comment." 

Maulketh reached out and grabbed both his sword.

"Let's try something shall we."

All three of his Symbols of Power synchronized themselves with his Law of Tyranny

He focused on himself and partially reverted into his dragon form. He activated the former Balance Breaker of the now Tyrrant's Gear and formed a second form for himself. 

In this form, he was nowhere near as big as he was in his true form, only a meager 5 meters tall. His new form was essentially him compressing his Dragon Form into a much smaller form suited for Sword Fighting. 

His form was sci-fi-like, and he could feel the Law of Tyranny and his energy fueling his new form. In his Dragon Form, he would fuse with his Symbols, but every now and then he could take this form to truly be a swordsman. 

"Now this is something interesting. Now, to the important matters. Egdronoth, to get back on track, get ready for War." 

The Demon God grinned. 

"Are we entering Hell?" 

"Not yet, we go against another reality of great power. I will be calling every Biome Emperor to arms. Every single one, those who bring great merits shall be rewarded. But, to repay you for giving me your Demon Core, I shall give you this." 

Maulketh placed his arm over his right heart, his first Dragon Heart. He jammed his hand into his chest and ripped out the still-beating black red and purple heart. 

"Catch." 

Maulketh's Law instantly forced his body to heal back to its peak state while Egdronoth used telekinesis to catch the organ. He looked at the mighty organ in his hold with tears falling down his face. 

"My master, you truly are kind." 

"A heart, for a core." 

Egdronoth smiled raised the organ over his mouth and swallowed it in one go. As Maulketh was a being of Law, his organ was now created from those Laws. Once the Demon God ate the heart, those raw laws ravaged their way through the Conceptual Demon God. 

But with Maulketh here, those Raw Laws began to fuse into Egdronoth's form as his strength began to rapidly rise. His Demon Core began to be flooded with Maulketh's energies causing it to evolve into a crystal heart, a Demon Dragon heart. 

Meanwhile, Liliana pulled herself out of the pool feeling the same process. She felt leagues stronger and a much purer connection to Maulketh himself. 

"Master, how strong are you really." 

Maulketh snorted as the answer was easy. 

"As I am now, I could most likely wipe out galaxies with a thought. A Law is a form of power that only by having one will you understand." 

As for Egdronoth, his form began to warp as he grew even larger by at least a mile. He was now 6 miles tall and his throne warped around him to suit his form. His Armor was strengthened and the giant sword next to his throne melted before being reforged better than ever. 

He opened his red-slitted eyes with a grin.

"Point me at who you want dead and I shall bring you their heads." 

Maulketh grinned. 

"That's what I like to hear."

Using the Law of Tyrrany he projected his voice through out his realm which was growing bigger, stronger, and more Tyrranical as his Law was influencing it. 

Maybe a new type of being above Biome Emperors would begin to pop up in time. 

"This is Maulketh Imperator Tempus, Demon Dragon God of Tyranny. All Biome Emperors should begin preparing for War. Get your armies ready, call your Kings and Lords, and prepare to take a reality for ourselves. Those who prove themselves shall be rewarded greatly by me. Now prepare." 

When his voice cut out, every Biome Emperor from the Depths of the Seas, the Mountain peaks, the snowy tundras, the electrical environments, even the spooky places where time and space warped, the depths of the earth began to emerge. 

This was a Call to Arms, all open combat ceased, and this was not a time to fight each other. This was a time to slaughter the enemies of the Lord. Maulketh crossed his arms as he knew he would not just be taking one universe of DC. 

No, he would be taking over as many as he could. It was time for the gods to fall. Liliana blushed as she looked at his form, Egdronoth stood up from his throne grabbed his sword, and gave out a single order. 

"Gather." 

Every Demon King and Lord under his control began to gather their subordinates as they all rushed to their Emperor. But while that happened, Egdronoth brought it up. 

"Speaking of which, remember how Liliana brought up my daughter?" 

Maulketh nodded. 

"Yeah, what about it?" 

With a grin, the Demon answered. 

"Do you want to see her?" 

Maulketh raised an eyebrow. 

"Sure, why not?" 

"Excellent."
