Deus: We are all Lords

"Yes, but no, I am the spirit of the house, and by extension, these weapons."

As soon as the sentence was finished, a faint figure appeared in the air close to him. The figure slowly got clearer until he could finally see its true form. The figure belonged to a young girl who looked to be around the ages of 16 and 21. She was wearing a free-flowing dress that covered her from neck to toe.

"It's you?" Viktor asked to confirm as he was still new to abnormal events like this.

"Yes," the woman replied as Viktor continued to size her up. She may have proven her allegiance to the master, but he still felt overwhelming danger from the woman.

"Okay then, so do you know why the Orcs are here?" Viktor asked as he borrowed the experience of the past emperors to hide his fear and compose himself.

"I have absolutely no clue; I was just born a few hours ago, remember."

"Oh, that's true, but I still can't get rid of this uneasy feeling I have."

"Then that is your problem, and I assure you that no creature can disturb the master's peace as long as I stand."

"True, but orcs are a very destructive race; even goblins know that orcs are a race that needs to be exterminated on sight." Goblins are vile, but they at the very least do not harm the forest around them. Orcs take with no intention of giving back.

"Even so, it is still a problem for you... "Think, if I am the defense, then who do you think is the offense?"

"Me?" Viktor questioned

"Who else... you have the ability to create subordinates, and from your stats, I don't think the created subordinates will be weak in any way," she replied after rolling her eyes.

"True, I never really thought about it, but I will immediately send a party to search for the Orc settlement," Viktor said with a determined look on his face that showed that he had accepted his role.

"Good!!... But first, we can't exactly leave the master's manor unattended. "Have you seen a noble house without servants and guards?"

"I can't do that; I can only create ten demon goblins a week," Viktor said after searching through his memories to find all things related to the subordinate creation ritual.

"That's enough for now, so do you need anything special, or do you need to satisfy a special condition before you can start creating your subordinates?"

"Oh, don't worry about that; I have all I need here." Viktor said as a creepy smile appeared on his face while looking at the multiple corpses on the floor outside the manor.

"That's creepy; stop it," the woman ordered, and immediately Viktor came back to his senses.

"Sorry... and by the way, I would need a large empty room, please."

"You can use the basement; I don't think the master would ever go down there," the woman said.

"Excellent, then let's get started," Viktor said as he immediately jumped down from the wall into the battlefield. "Sorry, massacre zone."

His figure moved swiftly and nimbly throughout the entire battlefield as he selected and threw several corpses into the manor grounds. To create his subordinates, he needed a base, and these corpses satisfied that condition. He reaped the lives of those he deemed worthy to become the base for his subordinates and completely ignored those he didn't seem worthy of, regardless of their strength. He had never been in a battle of any kind before; after all, he was just a gatherer before this, but the memories and the experience of the lofty emperors before him made him a demon on the battlefield.

(A/N: not that he wasn't already a demon; I mean, his title literally states "Demon Goblin Emperor," a demon goblin but still a demon nonetheless.)
