Arpious of the Planes

Chapter 512 Leaving And Encounter Yet Again



"And the-"

"Yes, yes, I know… the granddaughter. Well, I'll just leave her with Arpious' status as a sign that I am all-powerful and she cannot go against me. But, eventually, I'll take her under my wing… as her rage is quite useful,"

As I finally arrived at my office, I began to fill out new forms to get the ceremony ready but made sure only my trustworthy assistant was aware of this, as I knew there were a few moles within my palace.

I couldn't detect them since they were one of the king's personal sets of spies… but if they learn about it, so be it.

"I'll fucking demolish them anyway," I sadistically smiled before signing away the papers and preparing the final step in my rise to an absolute god. "Now, Arpious… you better not ruin this for me,"

(Arpious POV)

The time for my stay in the Plane of Twilight had soon come to an end, but in terms of my family, I had barely progressed as I still had much to settle.

First, my wild son needed some discipline and, I guess, support, but most importantly, to help his god damn wife and child.

They might've abandoned him, but that doesn't mean he doesn't deserve a chance to redeem himself… although I doubt my grand daughter would forgive him quickly anyway.

It's going to take quite a while, so I hope he's determined to earn back her trust.

Secondly, there was the matter of my two other wives: Treyni and Homura were in some empires, settling their own problems, which I wouldn't mind helping with as long as they reached out to me.

"Though, that will be in a few days," I smiled before making sure I had changed into the cute dress Aimi, the previous genius puppeteer and clothing creator, made for me.

She didn't give it to me for a cheap price though, which most likely might've been due to me neglecting her and my other subordinates for quite a while.

Even while I was still on the plane, I could hardly catch up with them and talk about our daily lives.

So, I not only caught up with them but met with the corps that I had almost completely forgotten about, though it seems Kumo was still putting them to good work.

They had all grown quite strong, but I had also realized an epidemic of stunted growth due to a lack of evolution had spread throughout my entire plane, inflicting any random innocent with a horrible condition.

Of course, many were saddened about learning they had this disease, forcing them to really rethink their lives.

These discouraged ones either fell into two categories: completely tripping up and dropping into the sinking mud of life, wasting their lives away doing drugs or drowning in alcohol, or either picking themselves back up and moving onto a simpler life.

It's not like they lost their skills, so they were able to move into quite well-paying jobs that might've not been what they always dreamed of doing, but something that provided for them and allowed them to explore new hobbies.

Essentially, my entire plane had become autonomous, and besides the fact there is the conflict between empires, my plane was amazing to just sit back and watch.

"Alright, you're looking cute. Now make sure your other wives don't eat you up before me… I want to enjoy more time with you before you evolve," Kumo smirked before giving me a nice long hug and then swiftly stealing a quick kiss.

I hugged the rest of my family goodbye, with my granddaughter standing far in the distance, glaring at me intently.

"Do you want a hug, sweetie?" I teased her, and as she ran away with an angered expression, my family all laughed. "I'll help settle the other things later on, so make sure my plane doesn't burn before I get back. Also, if the devil comes back, try not to provoke her, and I'm serious," I sternly announced, with Luna giving the reaction I had expected.

She just gave a light scoff under her breath, but as my harsh glare dug into her skin, she lowered her eyes and said, "Whatever… as long as she doesn't come for my mother, then she can do whatever she wants,"

"What about your other family members?" I flicked my eyebrow up, and as she stuttered over her words, she wiped the sweat from her hands on her shirt.

"O-Of course they're strong enough to defend themselves,"

"Mhm," Kumo rolled her eyes, and as Luna began to panic, I silently waved them goodbye before activating my skill and appearing in a plane of seemingly endlessly stretching darkness.

The same portals from before plastered themselves in front of me, the one with a snowy frame glimmering with a light blue shine as if to greet me.

But, just as I began to walk towards it, a crack had ripped itself open in the darkness, and a familiar woman with red skin but now wearing a neat suit silently walked towards me.

"What is it now?" I groaned.

"I was hoping we could get married privately… I'm assuming the rest of your family wouldn't want to be there, considering I'm the devil and everything,"

"I didn't take you for the considerate kind," I silently chuckled before lightly reaching out my pale hand, which the devil was a bit confused by. "You're supposed to bend down on one knee and place the ring on my finger,"

"R-Ring? A-And you have like eight rings…."

"Then put it on one of my thumbs," I scoffed at seeing how bad she was at this, most likely assuming me to be the one getting down on one knee. "You're the one who proposed the idea, so you're the one proposing to me… come get me when you're actually ready," I smirked before tauntingly waving her goodbye as I stepped through the icy portal.

"Ugh… this is a pain," I heard her groan just as my vision flashed with a bright white light.
