The "Plot" thickens?
"Kami-sama!"
Yami had the two unconscious fallen angels taken by Mikasa before he went to meet Asia who had "conveniently" woken up. Yui and Strea would wake up soon as well, probably.
Asia was praying-like position on her knees as she looked up at Yami with the greatest reverence and worship there was. In her eyes, the person before her was the one and only true God.
Yami was already treated like a god by the Demi-human girls, but just by looking into Asia's eyes, he knew that this was going to be a lot more problematic. He wasn't the god from DxD, but he was the closest there was to that dead old man.
In fact, he was even more holy than the DxD god himself since the one true God has created Yami's body for him and he also had a good Karma that was pretty much ridiculous. The DxD one was just given more power by God as he was created, while Yami was the champion of the True God. There were also his titles, him being God's "godson" and the Jesus Body.
[The constellation "God and god is confusing" is nodding.]
The god Asia believed in was dead, but except for a few high ranked people, nobody knew that. And in the eyes of such people, he would be the reincarnation of the old man who sealed Tri-hexa.
"As I said, my name is Yami, not Kami."
Asia hung onto every word from Yami's mouth as if they were the words of god… Oh well, nevermind.
"I would never dare call Kami-sama by his name so casually. I beg your forgiveness for my previous actions and the trouble I brought to you, Kami-sama!"
Somehow she reminded him of Dobby from Harry Potter, but a lot cuter. Fearing that she would bang her head against the ground to atone for her "sins", Yami quickly moved and used one of his most powerful techniques.
A calming, pleasant and devine feeling came from the hand that suddenly started to stroke Asia's long blonde hair.
"I have already taken you in. I'm happy that there are such devoted and good followers, but exactly because you are such a nice person, please don't think that you need to beg me for forgiveness, you have done nothing wrong. If you preach that one should help others, you yourself should do that as well."
Asia teared up after the gentle yet powerful voice from her god. Such kindness and such greatness could only come from the one she believed in.
[The affection of "Asia" has increased to 200 - Undying Absolute worship.]
(The head-pats are truly way too powerful.)
At that moment Yami could hear the voices of his now awake daughters. He smiled but the moment he saw the totally cute but even more fanatical expression on Asia's face he decided to go to them as fast as possible. There were other fanatic followers of him there to keep Asia company.
"Eris and Senko will show you around and explain a few things to you. I'm sure you will get along very well."
"Yes!"
"After that Tsunade and Sachi will take care of you and teach you. The Twilight Healing Sacred Gear is focused on healing and you should put it to good use in the name of the person who bestowed this power upon you."
Although Yami wasn't planning on correcting Asia's misunderstanding, he paid attention to the words he said since he didn't want to take the accomplishments of someone who died to protect the world.
It didn't even take a minute before Eris and Senko arrived and they immediately got along as they were all kind and positive people. But most importantly, they all believed in their great god, Yami.
As Asia saw Yami's leaving figure, she prayed once more, thanking him for everything and thanking him for the great future that was to come.
After the Evolution Asia still looked like a normal human, but she looked even more beautiful, pure and holy. Just like the others, she had been improved overall, one could almost say, reborn. Her healing abilities were sure to be even more powerful and she would surely be able to master them even quicker with the power up and the guidance of Tsunade.

Yami was sitting on a blanket with his two daughters to either of his side and a picnic basket before him.
Since they had undergone evolution Yami thought that this would be very nice. They were in a clearing with the beautiful trees and plants of Paradise surrounding them.
"How are the two of you feeling after waking up?"
"Great!"
"Even better than ever before!"
"We even got to meet Mama Eve."
{Oh, my cute little daughters, I love you.}
Although, as they were his daughters, there was nothing to improve about them, they also looked a lot cuter and cuter and even cuter than before. Important things, Important things, Important things need to be said trice.
The two of them now had their fairy wings from ALO and Yui seemed to have grown a bit. They could probably also transform into their navigation pixy form. They both wore their white dresses just like in the original and had a flower in their hair, blue for Yui, pink for Strea.
{Now they are able to infiltrate every electronic network and more importantly, they are even cuter now! They are really taking after their great father.}
"Daddy, I heard from mommy Eve that you played a game with our future mothers while we were sleeping. I want to play something with you as well!"
Strea was excited while Yui was more reserved, but nodded in approval.
"I will teach you an easy card game called UNO then. We can play other ones in the future, it would be even better with more people…"
Yami looked over at his bodyguard who stood some distance away while looking in a very specific direction, even though Lioness was sitting on her shoulder. The direction was where she was summoned and where she found that strange sword which she just couldn't pull out…
"Saber. Saber!"
"Graa~"
Only after Yami raised his voice more and Leoness tapped her face with her paw, did Artoria come back from her own thoughts.
"The time I played with Shizuku and Saeko you were interested in it, right? Do you want to play another game together with us?"
Indeed, Artoria had been very interested, it looked fun and she never got to experience something like that in her time as a queen. The smiles and laughs she had heard when they were playing had sparked something within her…
Although she spent some time with Alice and Leoness, she was still not a woman of many words and thus she just nodded. Maybe she would be able to understand it better if she experienced it herself.
Now the four-
"Graaaw~"
The five were seated together. While playing they also ate the food Yami had made and brought with them. Well, most of it went to Saber and Leoness, who seemingly had adopted the gluttony skill from Saber.
"Hehehe, Daddy you have to draw two ca
Even Saber unknowingly had a very very faint smile on her face while Strea and Yui were having great fun.
[The constellation "God-father" is appreciating this wholesome moment.]
- - -
"And? Where have the two of you been?"
Yami was looking at the two freeloaders who had decided to finally show up again.
"Who knows, nya~. What interests me more are the new girls you picked up while we were out, others seem to understand the greatness of my mate as well, nyahahaha~."
Valina looked over at Kuroka with a not so happy expression, but she could hear the voice of Albion at that moment.
"It is only natural for someone with a bloodline as pure as his to have several mates. Both me and Ddraig can't do it anymore and neither Great Red or Ophis seem interested in finding a partner, at the moment at least. Thus it is actually great that there is such a pure dragon with so many girls around him."
The voice was that of an old man. As a member of the strongest dragons he wasn't at all against the idea of such superior genes getting passed down to more offspring. And he also tried to console his partner with these words a bit.
"I just need to defeat all the others who want to be his partner… in everything."
Valina was whispering to herself to strengthen her resolve. Well, actually she already knew that that wasn't going to happen deep down, but as a prideful dragon she couldn't just accept it without putting up a fight.
"Valina, whatever you are thinking, please restrain your thoughts and the aura you are releasing."
Yami could already see a kind of blue blue-gray aura surrounding Valina and there were of course also the wings which appeared once Albion spoke. She instantly restrained herself and put on a smile that seemed to say that she didn't know what Yami was talking about.
"And? Why did you two homewreckers come back if you had so much fun playing outside?"
"Awww, we are not homewreckers anymore, we can pay for everything, especially the food, nya~"
"You just want to have my food, right?"
"Nowhere tastes better than back home, nyahaha~"
Yami sighed and went downstairs, however, the fact that Kuroka called this place "home", that they completed a few missions, got a bit of money from them and didn't rip each other's heads off while being together was great progress.
"Ne,ne, Master, how was it?"
Vanilla and Chocola went up to Yami. It was already late and thus they were cleaning the shop, it looked sparkly everywhere and probably even Levi wouldn't be able to find any dirt.
They were also the ones who had informed Yami that the two residents that Yami had told them about previously had returned. Luckily he had already finished the game with the three children and was about to leave Paradise anyways. Yes, three, there were Yui, Strea, Saber and Lioness who was still a cub, although she had grown rapidly in the last few days. And with how Saber had acted while playing the card game, she resembled a child as well, making Yami and God smile.
"Not much, they were just out and came back to scrounge some food. Do you want some as well? You are doing a great job after all."
"Yees!"
Chocola was fired up at the prospect of getting to eat even a single piece of food made by Yami. Although Vanilla wasn't one to express herself a lot, she quickly nodded her head even before he had finished his sentence and her tail was wagging around, clearly showing her excitement.
He had a bit of mofu-mofu time with the two of them before going into the kitchen. None of the three were bothered by the stares that came from a certain group of females; Touka, Hinami, Ryoko and the still invisible Mai. Their stares all had different feelings and meanings, for example, Hinami just wanted to get a pat as well while Ryoko was thinking that Yami really got along great with children and the two girls had complicated feelings in their hearts…
After he had fed his two small cats, it was time to feed his naugthy black cat and dragon empress.
From the way they devoured his food, it really looked as if they only came back to eat his delicious creations.
"Haah, only my partner can make such great food."
"You mean only my mate can make such godly food, nya~"
"Your? We already had this conversation a few times, didn't we?"
The wings of the Sacred Gear appeared on Valina's back as she got up.
"Nyahaha, I'm willing to share him, but you shouldn't be part of MY mates harem… I don't think men like overly possessive women nya~."
Kuroka on the other hand was after all a teasing naughty kitten. She continued to lazily lie on the bed with very loose robes into which Yami had a great view, which she of course did on purpose.
"Although I didn't manage to defeat you completely, I'm obviously the stronger one of the two of us!"
"Did you know, there is something called feelings and love which can't be won through just being stronger or punching the other, nya~"
(Just because you're correct doesn't mean you're right. There are quite a few cases of girls falling for the MC just because he is stronger and punched them… Wait, isn't that exactly how it went with Valina?)
The Dragon Empress couldn't find the words to answer, until now she was only interested in strength and her revenge, but now that there was Yami, her "partner", her world had broadened more and well, got more color. And there was this thing called love…
She clenched her fists lightly. She was a bearer of the Divine Dividing! She was the White Dragon Empress! She was the person who was going to defeat her grandfather who was on a whole different level of power! She would never give up! She wouldn't be afraid of these feelings and wouldn't run away from them, since when did she run away from her problems?!
At that moment she was reminded of another thing that Kuroka had bragged to her about. For one the black cat had already told her that Yami had a lot more beautiful and powerful women at his side. And…
"Right, how dare you destroy a whole territory of the Underworld as well as a branch family of one of the Pillar Families, without me! Even the name you are called is "Luzifer", although I guess that my partner has the right and qualifications to use the name, you should still have brought me along! And within the underworld they said that it wasn't you who saved the ones experimented on, no, that Maou Sirzechs took all the credit!"
(Oh fuck… I totally forgot about the nekomata I saved…)
[The constellation "The most perfect being in existence" is thinking about how maybe a thing called Perfect Brain might help…]
(Oh thanks a lot you old man who gave me a skill which just malfunctions every time it is convenient.)
[The constellation "The most perfect being in existence" says that he is perfect and there is no way of him being wrong, ever.]
(You let Boku No Pico exist.)
[The constellation "The most perfect being in existence most of the time" is saying: "Touché"]
In response to Valina's outraged voice, Yami just shrugged his shoulders.
"How about this, when I'm going to do something again, I will tell you and you can decide whether you want to take part in it or not. But for that I need a way to contact you since you were just gone last time."
Her wings dropped a bit just like her temperament. Indeed, for one it was her own fault that he had no way of contacting her and on the other hand she had also never said that she wanted to help him. For all the talk she had about being his "partner", she hadn't really done anything yet. No! She had worked hard for the past days to complete quests and get a shit lot of money.
"Yami, we have something for you, as thanks for letting us stay."
While Kuroka was nodding Valina took out a card from somewhere. Kuroka was a bit upset that she wasn't the one to say it since it had been her idea, but didn't say anything to not ruin the moment.
"This is a Credit Card for the bank account I and Kuroka had opened. You said that you wanted some money right? There is a lot more on it than just "some", but I am, errr…"
Valina's gaze met Kuroka's eyes that were practically threatening her to tell Yami about who had really come up with the idea since Valina was trying to get all the credit.
"I mean, we are sure that you will like it… we even went to Romania for one of the missions…"
The last part was hushed once again, it seemed that this was becoming a habit. She didn't want to complain loudly when she was just giving Yami a present, but she couldn't help but silently voice a bit of her displeasure at these vampires and how they got dragged into their own powerstruggels. At least they could help that girl and Yami would probably be proud of her for that.
Before Valina could think more about it, her body was suddenly hugged.
"Thanks, partner."
Her body was frozen for a moment, and then she felt a sudden surge of warmness from the place where Yami's arms hugged her. And the fact that he had called her "partner" made another surge of warmness come from her heart.
"Okay, okay, we wanted to be thanked for our hard work, but I think that's enough, nya~"
[The constellation "Getting caries from the sweetness" is agreeing with Kuroka while looking at his medical bills with great concern.]
However, the moment Yami touched behind her ears, all words of disapproval left her, just like the strength in her body as she fell into Yami's lap. She instantly started purring and unconsciously rubbed her head against Yami's hand. Maybe this skill also brought out a bit more of the cat side of the Nekoshu.
[The affection of "Valina" has increased to 68.]
[The affection of "Kuroka" has increased to 84.]
[STATUS - AFFECTION
-----------------------------------------------
Valina: You ARE my partner! (68)
Kuroka You ARE MY Mate! Nya~ (84)
---------------------------------------------- ]
After the two of them had more than enough time to experience Yami's overpowered "Wholesome God-Hands", he had a smile on his face and spoke to them.
"I also have something for you. But it is up to you whether you accept it or not."
The two of them perked up and got a bit more serious. They looked at Yami's hand in which something shining with red light was held, that he placed on the table. For a moment they were surprised, then confused and then very interested.
What was now there was a chess piece; a pawn.
"I'm certain both of you know what this is."
"How did you get your hands on the pieces of a peerage?"
The fact that Kuroka didn't say her usual nya showed just how serious this matter was. The only ones to get a peerage were high ranking Devils and Yami was most certainly a human, at least that was what she could sense with her abilities. But, according to Albion, one of the heavenly dragons, Yami also had very very pure dragon blood which she couldn't sense at all. They already knew that this white haired man was special, very special, but they were very curious as well about him.
"If you accept the pawn piece, I will tell you everything about it."
His answer was short and straight to the point. His tone was still very warm and gentle, but the firmness of his voice showed that he was very serious about it.
Kuroka and Valina were interested in Yami and who he really was more than anything else. They knew very well of the fact that if they accepted, Yami would be their king and they would be his pawns.
Strangely enough, neither of them had any aversion to this proposal. Even they themselves didn't know why.
Kuroka had already once been a bishop and been betrayed and used by her master, being used as a test subject of unspeakable experiments, having to undergo excruciating pain, finally killing this master to protect her sister and then having to separate from her beloved Shirone because of it.
Valina on the other hand was a powerful being with a limitless future who held the Divine Dividing. She was the White Dragon Empress. She was a proud dragon! She wouldn't subordinate herself to anyone! At least that was what she had thought until now.
But these pawn pieces seemed to be drawing them in.
"Before you say anything, I have to tell you about the one condition if you accept the chess piece."
The eyes which had been focused on the red light moved up to Yami again, but the light was so bright it filled the whole room and made it look mysterious and special.
"The condition is the following; You have to accept being part of my harem."
A breeze went through the room. Actually, it was caused by how fast Kuroka's hands had shot out and grabbed onto one of the pawns.
[The Pawn "Kuroka" has been added to the peerage.]
[PEERAGE:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Kuroka" (Pawn)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ]
[The affection of "Kuroka" has increased to 90.]
Just like with the Master-Servant Contract, Yami could feel a connection with Kuroka being established.
"But why only a Pawn nya~? Am I not good enough for anything else, nya~?"
Kuroka acted aggrieved, but the mischievousness in her tone was obvious and she wasn't even trying to conceal it.
"A king is nothing without his pawns, you know. No, seriously, the pawn sounds bad, but it is actually very strong since you can promote yourself and get different boosts. Especially for someone who is very versatile in combat, being a pawn is way better than being limited to one specific field. And why did you take it if you didn't want to be my pawn?"
"Nyahaha, who knows? A cat is very moody didn't you know nya~?"
(Oh yes. MEOW! Give me food! - Why did you give me so much? I only wanted one bite! MEOW! Let me out! - When did I ever say I wanted to go out, I just wanted to look out there, it's too cold for me anyways. MEOW! Pet me! - Grrrrr, who said you can touch my esteemed self?! I shall bite you to death!)
[The constellation "Furry-heaven" is telling you to never doubt the decisions of the one true supreme race.]
"Oh, are you going to bite me to death if I touch you the wrong way, or run away from me if I don't feed you enough?"
"Nyahaha, maybe I will, make sure to touch me properly and feed me enough if you don't want that."
"It seems that this lazy naughty cat hasn't understood the principle of master and servant very well yet…"
Valina had a very complicated expression while she looked at how Yami now began to "torture" and "deciplin" the Nekoshou by touching her very "properly". Because she was still in her human form, it looked a lot more well, intimate? Valina didn't know what to do at the moment.
She thought about it, but wasn't able to come to any conclusion. Maybe a part of that was thanks to the noises that came from Kuroka which made it very very very hard to concentrate…
Yami stopped only after Kuroka lay on the bed, totally defenseless and drained from all energy while panting heavily, her big breasts heaving and falling, her wagging tail and twitching ears being the only things that were still able to move vigorously, besides her thighs that were rubbing against each other.
Valina looked at the "pitiful" sight of the person whom she considered her rival and couldn't help but have a smug grin on her face. Even this playful and annoying cat had easily been defeated by her partner. But that was the point, he was her partner, he had managed to defeat her, but she wouldn't become his subordinate... yet… Maybe if he was able to decisively defeat her, she would.
"Please give me some more time to consider it."
Yami nodded towards her. He wasn't expecting the White Dragon Empress to easily join his peerage anyways. In the original Vali would make his own peerage and he wouldn't just subordinate himself that easily especially if Yami was weaker if you took the Divine Dividing into account.
Having Kuroka accept was a great success. It seemed that everything went well with the operation; Cat in the sack.
Kuroka had already been incapitated and Valina decided to go out a bit, she said she wanted to fight a bit to clear her head. Yeah, she was still a battle maniac after all.
(Nekomata, right. I should check on them after leaving them to Tsunade and Sachi. Those two really have a lot to do, teach the others about healing, taking care of the Nekomata and now there is Asia as well. I'm pretty sure that Hanekawa and some others have taken care of them as well since I personally saved them. I just hope that they didn't do anything weird again. At the very least they should be grateful to me and there was also the reward from the quest that said that they would be at the level of "Adoration", that should be pretty good, but not too high.)
Yami put a blanket on Kuroka's body and went to his own room. He would take her to Paradise after she woke up. Probably after school tomorrow.
Just as he was about to teleport, a system message plopped up before him.
[The affection of "Nekomata" has increased to 118 - Followers of their savior.]
