Monarch of Darkness, Arsene-Chapter 1102 Kuro And Adrian

Red. All there was red. Tenebrae was fuming. Literally. I may have gone a little far. But god damn. I've never seen someone so red.

Sliding my eye back to everyone who hadn't seemed to notice anything wrong. I spoke, "I suspect with the entry of higher beings into the lower realms. The battle for a piece of the Chaos Drew will be more chaotic than usual. When the Abyss creates this primordial energy for us, it's meant to fuel an entire Twelve Realms. Failure to do so will result in instability all around."

"Indeed. Which is why I'm suggesting an alliance." Said Melinoe. " While a single drop of Chaos Drew can be shared evenly, there can only be ten drops, and those ten will be shared with the ten realms. Hell and Heaven are usually left out as they are considered self-powered, but this Chaos Cycle event is different."

"They're going to join," I said calmly. "The Teleth will join."

"Is that a problem, Master?" Adrian questioned. Seated near me. He turned from Melinoe to me, slanting his brow.

"The Teleth are almost impossible to kill. And the more angels you kill. The more Teleth will be born." I answered. " They are more of an issue than Devils or Demons. Their schemes might still suck, though."

Shifting my gaze back to Melinoe, I nodded. " An alliance is due able; however, what's the split?"

"Fifty-Fifty."

I almost snorted. " I have Shadowfell, Abyssal Fiends, and Tene. What exactly are you offering?"

"Weaponry from beyond the Silver Devils era. Unlike your people, mine was raised by a Chaos Lord. Noctem was without a king or any true leadership for the longest. And as it stands, we have more Paragons and at least two Chaos Lords."

'..."

"You have Chaos Lords? How?"

"There were two who hadn't wish to ascend to look after me in Father's place. Their loyalty is, without a doubt, unmatched. And I'm sure Father himself will descend soon. Same with Mama Nyx."

Winterpool has a Chaos Lord. And now, so does the Plane of Oblivian? I didn't think I'd be so behind. And while it's not fair to compare myself to these powers. Since these are extenuating circumstances, it's still frustrating. Chaos Lords should have all ascended long ago.

"And your willing to send them into combat? Powers like that usually tend to be special protection." I said, masking my discontent. It was unbecoming of me to show my feelings.

"I wouldn't have taken it upon myself to mention it if I didn't ask them. These two Chaos Lords will assist me."

Iluthath is becoming a shit show. I hate to admit this, but I feel like I'm at the bottom. I'm not even a Paragon yet. Do I have what it takes to become a Chaos Lord before anything major happens?

In Zariel's era, one needed to become a Chaos Lord first before one was pushed to such levels of perfection as Paragon.

"I'll teach you," Tene said in a minuscule voice. "That was always the plan. I'll teach you."

I turned to her. "What about the Kingdom?"

"I'm both everywhere and nowhere. I am the darkness." Tene answered, lifting her little head flushed with a light shade of red. She showed me a warm smile. "It's my pleasure to share all I know."

My heart shuttered as I stared.

"What's going on with you two?" Adrian butted in. the little shit.

"Mind your business, boy," I grunted. " Speaking off? Where are you at with Kuro? Such a cute little angel like her deserves the best. I'd do it, but I'm a married man."

"... You… a… married… man." Everyone stammered out, staring at me with deadpan expressions.

'Oh, come on! It's a joke!" I jeered, smiling from ear to ear. " I'm just saying. Adrian is at that age."

'I don't date kids." Kuro, who stood hidden in the shadows, mentioned without a shred of consideration, turning Adrain's cheeks red. "Especially ones getting bitched around by their Master."

"..." I lifted my finger and pointed at myself.

"Kuro. What did I say about speaking your mind?" Tene snapped.

"He seems like a bottom, Night Mother."

"KURO!" Tene squealed, turning to Adrain's chilling eyes.

"Do you and I have a problem?" My disipile grimaiced to say.

"See? Bottom. Getting offended over the opinion of others. You're still a kid. It makes it even worse that you're older than me."

Watching Tene's future disciple vanish into the darkness, I couldn't help but chuckle. I love that girl. She gave zero fucks. She said whatever on her mind, with no regard for me or anyone else. That took balls. Real balls. Especially since she knows I'd have no issue killing her.

Who would have thought we'd find such a girl eating garbage within Nocturne? Covered in shit. She was nothing but bones when we found her. Feral and bloodthirsty, she attacked Tene and me with an old rusty dagger.

That girl had potential, real untapped potential, especially since she's an aberration of Shadowfell and Shade. No idea how it happened, but Kuro is the result.

Having paused the meeting with this little outburst, I thought for a second and stared at the indifferent expression of everyone and turned to Adrain, seemingly lost in thought.

"You going to kill her?"

? He turned to me, taking a stand. " What I do is none of your concern." And vanished, leaving only nodes of darkness fading back into the ether.

My smile deepened. " Interesting, isn't it?" I said, looking up at Cleo. "reminds you of anyone?"

"You think your disciple is like me?" Cleo remarked, slightly arching her head. " don't disrespect me like that."

"I speak more of that idiot that holds interest towards you. I long since forgot his name. But I'm sure he still works with you."

Cleo grimaced. "Can we continue? I'd rather not talk about my personal life." 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

"Personal? So he fucking you–"

"No, he isn't!" Cleo snapped. She suddenly paused, sucking in a long breath. Her shoulders trembled in a frightful rage. " The meeting. Can we continue?"

"Sure. Sure. "I teased. "Tene, call Kuro to our chambers later. I'll like to talk to her. I have an idea. One that will infuriate them. Oh, and call Seraphine."

"You know I'm not your secretary. We have people for that."

"But I have you. And what better woman is there than my Tene."

"Disgusting." Said Melinoe. " Can you two stop this flirting garbage?" 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

Chuckling at the sight of the increasing flush of Tene, I shifted my attention back to Melinoe." You and Cleo are so wound up today. I think you two need a good dicking to calm you down."

"Is that how you get wound down? Tenebrae is pegging you?" Said Melinoe lifting her lips into an evil grin.

Butt cheeks clenching, I gulped. " Why don't we continue?"
