"So who will handle this?" Rael asked looking at Edward.

"I will!" He said with absolute determination in his voice.

"Is that so?" Rael gave an amused smile.

"Edward, are you sure you want to fight, you are just an E rank," Eddie spoke with pity.

Edward did nothing and just gave him a cold shoulder.

"I might be E rank, but it would be better if you call me the strongest E rank."

A grin crept onto his face, almost maniacal just like Rael's, and his eyes seemed like that of the devils as he then rushed forward towards Eddie.

Instantly many elves, orcs, ogres came in front, covering Eddie.

"We won't let Priest Eddie die!"

"Tch! Fuck off!" Edward roared.

He wrapped his hands around one of them crushing his head with his legs, then suddenly from nowhere like as if using space magic he got a long scythe in his hands.

"DIE!" He swept his scythe along the like decapitating the heads of everyone in the range.

"Hehihahahahahahehehehehehehhhhhhuhahhua." He started to laugh like a maniac who had his entire family killed.

From one place to another, wherever he went his scythe followed with blood behind it.

"DIE!"

Another one plopped down.

"DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE huhahahauahauahauahahansjaha!!!"

"More exp, give me more!"

Only when everyone died did he realize what he did. Then like a gullible brat, he plopped down on his knees with tears flowing from his eyes.

Now the only people on the battlefield, were me, Edward, and Eddie.

This was most likely the best time to take advantage of Edward's naivety.

I slowly walked towards Edward and sat down to his height with a cold expression on my face.

Edward was muttering again and again in his breath.

"I am a murderer," He said with his eyes empty and watery.

"No, you are not," I spoke to reassure him.

"Yes I am, what if they had families?! Even I have one, who I want to protect, although my sister might hate me!" He yelled right into my ears.

*Slap!!*

I slapped him right into his face to get him into his senses, kidding, it was because my eardrums almost burst because of him.

Then I looked at him with a fierce expression and shouted at him.

"I said that you are not a murderer, you are a killer! If you are a killer then act like one!" Then I paused to regain my breath.

He was staring at me intently as if I was his angel.

"Killers don't have a right to cry! Killers don't have a right to feel guilty! AND MOST OF ALL if you are ready to kill someone you should be prepared because you can also die! It is always kill or be killed! Do you think I gave you that system for fun?!"

I scolded him with intense anger and fury in my eyes.

Although I spewed some bullshit in the end. It was on purpose so that he would come right into my clutches, then when I would do the Asura ritual he would become completely my slave.

I know I was being cruel, but desperate times call desperate measures. I have been betrayed many times as a King.

Even my death seemed to have mystery by what I deduced when Vaani and Puck told me about the aftermath of the Fairy Realm since my death.

This time I had to groom loyal people.

Becoming my shadow gives me absolute control and loyalty. Edward would become yet another part of it. I don't know how many times I can use the Asura Ritual but Edward for sure was a great find.

"Y-ou gave me the System?" He asked looking up at me, his eyes had been replaced with gratitude and hope. At this point, he didn't even dare to suspect me.

Why would he even suspect me?

After all, didn't I just comfort him?

Damn, he is vulnerable, I feel like a villain for doing this.

"Yes, I did," I spoke with confidence.

At that moment the idiotic fodder had to speak ruining our harmonious atmosphere.

"If you all are done with you lovey-dovey bromance, I am still alive," Eddie spoke, it seemed that he had gone through some mutation.

He had long hair and height, along with his super muscular macho body.

He smirked as he noticed my gaze.

"Yes, I injected the Boosting drug, I hadn't thought that Edward would be so strong, but now the two of you will die anyway. I will fulfill the mission of the Holy Church which is to exterminate all demons from this realm, leaving only elves and other species to rule. You demons have stayed at the top for too long!" He said this as he revealed his pig ears.

Oh so he was a High-Orc it seems, that explains his lust and inability to talk to women.

I just looked at him with a cold eye, he had pissed me off by ruining my speech.

"Yeah, I don't give a shit about your delusional church."

"Y-you! How-"

Oh wait, this is a chance to show him my superiority. That way Eldritch will believe that I gave him the system.

"Derek!" I yelled.

Instantly from my shadow, a humanoid figure appeared, he had long brown hair and rainbow-colored eyes with an Ashura mark on his forehead.

"Yes my lord." He bowed.

"Take care of that pesky insect," I said not glancing at Eddie.

"Don't toy with him, simply kill him." Even if the time was short, I genuinely had fun with the guy. The way he would show me around campus and play video games.

"As you wish my Lord." He then disappeared appearing behind Eddie, not even glancing at him before his head flew into the sky.

Then Derek kneeled in front of me again.

"My Lord, I have completed the task."

"Hm good job, you can go and rest," I said with a smile.

Then the next turn was for the slime.

Forcefully, the Slime came out from the soul sea.

"Predate them all and return inside the sea." I glared at her, she instantly understood that I didn't want her to flirt with me today since I was in the middle of recruiting loyalty.

Quite a smart girl she is.

Then I stopped to look at Eldritch who was still in shock.

"See I have many others here just like you, I used to be a god but then I was trapped in this body because of a curse by a witch." My face was gloomy and nostalgic as I spoke.

Instantly I felt complicated emotions of pity coming from Edward.

"I don't need your pity, I gave you the system for a reason."

He spoke a bit hesitantly, "Why me? Why did you choose me?"

I smiled inwardly, it was working.

Even though I was manipulating him I didn't feel bad because I was giving him a chance of being useful to the almighty peerless me.

"Weren't you hungry for power?" I asked him with a slight smile on my face.

He lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"Yes."

"That is just one of the reasons, the second being that I wanted to give you a family, you don't have one right?"

Again he said in a low voice.

"Yes."

His only family was his sister who he thinks hated him for being weak.

Although I am sure that his sister loves him a lot hence she puts a cold face in front of him and shows that she doesn't care about him so that the enemies don't think of him being her weak link.

Should I accept his sister in my family? I am not keen on having men in my family except for Puck who is my adopted son and best friend.

Alright it's decided, I will fool him after he becomes my Shadow I will discard him but since I am a gentleman I shall take his sister in my family as compensation.

I don't want her to feel lonely because when a person becomes a shadow they lose half of their soul. So in a way he would be half dead.

If I gain Edward, I will have an Eldritch(Devil) by my side due to his system's purpose to make him a Primordial Devil.

Omniscience and Omnipotent to whichever dimension or world he is allotted to.

A slave worker under the fingertips of my hands.

Then there was the slime, which had infinite potential, the power to surpass everything, boundless.

The future seemed quite exciting.

All I have to do is fool Edward big-time.

Then I turn to look at Edward who had a will of determination in his eyes.

"So I will ask you, do you wanna join my family?"
