Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 227: Vampiric Twins

"Go ahead, Arsene, but do keep in mind I am a princess of the King of Hell. Keep it up, and I may just ask a fellow demon to have a go at that ass you keep saying 'is sexy."

Opening my mouth wide, I stood there petrified at the thought, "Never mind dear, your master apologies."

Licking her lips, Ezra smirked, having a small victory over me, "The two are both Noble Vampires named Aynat and Mare, twins from a great demon duke. They were given to me as slaves by their father as a tribute for my birth."

"... He just gave you his daughters as a slave?" I asked in a perplexed manner at what she just said. I understand if it was a low-grade man but a duke. They are very high within the Infernal Hierarchy.

"Yes, and it's quite a normal site within the nines, especially since these two were born to a low-grade concubine. Vampires are not truly that impressive on a cosmic level. So many of them remain around a low-grade social class. However, there are a few exceptions."

Sending a deep glance towards the two covered in a mask, I shook my head, "how long will it take for you two to construct a building?"

"We are not Contractors. We don't build buildings, you idiot. Fuck! Lady Ezra, is he really your husband? He seems rather slow and honestly retarded. Will your father be mad if we get you a new toy?"

"Agreed, Lil sis, he just looks like a pretentious fucker with nothing to do. A demon only at the second stage of... What even is that low realm?" Anya spat, eying me up and down with disdain.

"Have you taken him yet, my lady?" Mare asked in a lustful tone, "Is he your toy yet? I could get you a better vibrator if you want? Lady Nimue has released a new line, and it's amazing, far better than this... This Arsene."

'One, two, three, one, two, three,' I muttered to myself as Ezra laughed

"ARSENE, CALL OFF YOUR DOGS!!!" Havel screamed as blood began to run from his arms and legs, creating a small pool beneath his feet. Sending a look at the army of Nascent souls showing up on all sides, I waved my arm as they came to a halt.

Ignoring the twins whose expression was covered, I stepped forward towards the bloody Havel and his little friends. Aside from two that died, they had managed to put up a marvelous fight, killing over ten of my slaves.

"I am quite impressed, but it will cost you." I coldly said when an idea came to me. Turning to Ezra, I smirked, "Form a contract with the man. I want to see how you will do it. This city is about to be under your jurisdiction."

Scrunching their eyes, both Anya and Mare frowned about to speak but stop when I sent them a chilling glance, "Do not interfere in the business of her father. I am her master; you had best watch and learn to chose when to interfere." I viciously commented. "From what I hear, Bael, that fool is still screaming within the ninth realm of hell."

Feeling a cold shiver run across the chilling winter air, I stared dead into the two demons quaking before turning my gaze back to Ezra, "So..."

"Do not speak to my thrall as such, Arsene," Ezra coldly uttered, glaring at me as I broke into a smile.

"Apologies," I commented, feeling quite happy she stood up for her own. I needed to know how to push her buttons. While it's good to show support, there are many ways to do so. "But next time something like this happens, think of another way aside from strong-arming me. Force, as I said many times, is not always the best method, and there is no need to show such a chilling look. A neutral expression or a smile is king in politics."

Narrowing her gaze in a thoughtful manner, I watched as the young princess approached Havel. However, in but a second, Kara and Alfred were there with their weapons drawn. The air went stale as I felt a heavy pressure within my soul as they opened their mouth.

"HALT!!"

Needless to say, blood ran like a river as the twins, Anya and Mare, appeared, tearing their limbs from their bodies in but a second. Screams and wails quickly filled my ears as I watched four arms drop to the ground. Havel, however, quickly fell to his ass, backing away in fear.

Sweat and dirt both covered his body as he struggled to even breathe. Yet Ezra didn't seem to bother as she smiled, releasing a demonic grin that seemed to captivate the very suns.

"Havel? That's what Arse...Master called you, is it not?" Ezra questioned as the boy complied, nodding through his fear. "Good, tell me, Havel, why should I let you live."

"I-I-I am p-p-powerful," he mindlessly said, blushing at his words as I frowned.

"Is that not that soul attack she did to me when we first met? So this is what would have happened to me should I have failed to break free." I recalled with a chilling expression remembering the confident girl from before versus now.

Touching her chin, I suddenly felt a chill as Ezra laughed, "Good, then for you to live, all I ask is that you make it your life mission to kill that fucking bastard, I call master, ARSENE FUCKING SNOW!!!!"

"Fuck you, Ezra," I bellowed, "That... I am your master, don't you dare!!!"

"Deal!!" Havel roared as Ezra shook his hands while sending me a victorious smirk.

Gritting my teeth, I sent the girl a vicious stare while oddly feeling amused at what she did. While she did screw me over, I would have done the same thing if I was in her shoes. I can't be mad at a friend or family screwing me over for fun. I do it to them. It's only fair they do it back.

"What of them, my lady?" Mare asked, ruthlessly slapping Kara with her own arm as she moaned, shivering like a schoolgirl as her pale face slowly turned haggard.

"Let them go; I have no use for these people. They are Arsene's problem." She coldly hummed as I nodded in agreement. " You all may go,"

Watching Kara and Alprid vanish along with Havel and his group, I smirked, turning to Ezra, "I will let you handle this city then. Which one of you two are the engineers?" I asked in a cold tone as Mare step forth.

"I am," She said, holding a slightly better tone towards me.

"Ok, I want you to start upgrading this city's technology. Make it so that we know everything about everyone within this city. This is going to be our base of operations. The first thing I want you to make is a teleportation portal."

"It will have to run through the Bifr?st of this realm. We may need permission by Ygg..."

"We already have it," Ezra said towards Mare, stepping forward. "But if you are connecting it to the Bifr?st, does that mean we will have access to the other nine realms?"

Nodding with a confident gleam, Mare raised her thumb up, "Of course, nothing but the best for my master!"

Beaming with joy, I smiled, "Good, then Anya, you will be responsible for protection and offense till your sister is done with her work. The court of Nox is on our asses, so we need the best."

"I only give the best, peasant!" Anya voiced in an arrogant tone, causing me to smile.

"Oh, Asmodeus, this throne had better be worth it."
