Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

"For the kids, huh," I whispered and frowned. Thinking of what I was going to give them. I had nothing. Absolute nothing. My God, Lilith already created a weapon for the twins. Already created a land wanted by Angels and Fallen.

Frustration twisted a knife in my heart as I immediately sat up. I can't teach my kids virtues because I'm not a man of faith and hope. I'm a cold-hearted killer. I could admit that. I've killed more people than most people will ever see in their lifetime. What I had to give my child was darkness.

Was I going to be a bad Father? Is that possible for me? A son I could teach. I could raise him in my image. But a daughter. I don't want her to be like me. And dear God, I don't want her to be a Goddess of Lust. That would heart more than anything. In truth, I could deal with a lover… I could… maybe… but not a reverse harem. Maybe I'm just too conservative in that department. I could grasp the need for intimacy, but there is a difference between men and women. But…

Lilith's head tilted. "You okay?"

"Fine." I told her, a little unconvincingly. " no, wait. You're probably the best person I could ask. You're still a god of Wisdom, right? What do I give my kids? Aside from me being there, Father?"

A victorious smile appeared. "Looks like Mama Lilith is a few steps ahead. Hehe. Kneel before me, Sene. For I am victorious."

With a bonk to her head, I glared as she peeked up with teary eyes and trembled like a wet cat "Meany!"

"Oh, come on. Just tell me. You know I struggle with empathy. And right now. All my biological instincts are telling me to be more than awesome to the little ones. And who better to ask than the best wife out there? Their Mother. Well… Mom?"

A devilish smile appeared over my inner self as I contorted into mindless laughter: FOOLISH WOMAN! YOU WILL FALL PREY TO MY WORDS!

Cheeks a deep red, Lilith clenched her belly bump, her half-naked body pressing tightly against my flesh, as she looked up with such a look even the devil within melted.

She gave a smile that I'd seen many times. A smile that reminded me of my Mother; This was probably the most insecure I'd ever felt in my life. The most vulnerable I could ever recall being.

"Well. How about a Mask for our little girl?" Lilith responded. " And a ring for our son. You take care of the Mask, and I'll handle the ring."

I shook my head no. " I'll handle them both. But I want Vita's help."

Surprise flickered over her lovable smile, and her eyes narrowed a tad bit with suspicion. "You are requesting… Vita's help… Izavith. The walking bane of your existence."

"We might not get along well. But. If there is one thing we can agree on, it's the twins. I trust her to get what I ask right."

Lilith squealed and rolled wildly over the bed, wiggling all over me as she giggled.

"And there she goes. Your eccentric side is showing."

She stopped, snapping her piercing gaze at me. "I can show you another side if you want. I've learned a few positions, you know." Her smile dipped as she trailed her finger up her supple flesh. "How you feel if we—"

"Went on a date?" I finished, snickering inwardly. Foolish woman. You think you can just take advantage of this King. I do not need your permission when I want it! It'll be mine when I need it! It is I, your Great Demon King, Ruler of the Darkness, Paragon of Doom, that shall have you when he pleases.

That's it, Arsene! I can feel my Otaku side returning! I can feel my Fifth-grade syndrome ascending to a new state of being!

A/N: Who else had Fifth-Grade Syndrome?

Fire burning in my eyes, I sat up, opening my arm. "Well? Our Valentine's week was ruined, but I'm sure Earth has some interesting things."

"Sene, you okay?"

This King has never felt better! Each day I grow in stature! Be it the knowledge of Tenebrae or my cultivation. I have never felt more alive! More of a man! More of a supreme being people fear to even speak the name of! FOOOOL!

"Perfect. Now? What say you?" I said calmly.

"I've got…."

"Nothing. Because every session of our last a few hundred years. You got time. I have time. That's why you have a hierarchy. How many duchies does the Abyss currently have?"

"Six."

"Then those six will govern in your absence. Now get dressed."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Lilith?" I asked, noting her absent stare.

"What do I wear?"

I closed my eyes for a second envisioning something spectacular, and a smile appeared. " How about a yellow dress."

"Like a summer dress?"

"With a hat and shades." I told her, "We are heading to the beach. However, I'm hesitant to take you to California. Nothing good happens there."

She tilted her head. " Nothing?"

"An exaggeration… Kind of. But a private beach is—"

'I wanna go to a public beach. I want to see where you grew up." She exclaimed, rising to her feet with such passion in her eyes. My heart swelled.

"Well. I wasn't born in California. But we can take a tore of the entire world. Despite all my trips worldwide, I have always wanted to go to Italy. It's one of the many places I never landed in. Such a shame. I wonder if their people taste like pasta."

Lilith joyously squealed, yet again like a little girl, and launched herself into her closet to pack. Honestly, I've never seen her so excited. Watching the look over her face was really worth it, especially since this was all quite spontaneous.

"Sene loves Lili! Sene Loves Lili! La~La~La—-"

Amused by her odd singing, I waited a few hours, oddly enough, for her to pack before she appeared with a smile. "Should we call Ty and Arkanos?"

'Those sneaky brats? No. They are spending so much time with my sister! Enjoying themselves. Screw them; this is between us." I responded to her, enthralled by the sunny glint she had clothed herself in.

To call her an Angel was not too far fetch with her captivating looks, in fact. It felt more like an insult. Despite her innocent appearance, there was just something wicked about her. Something that made my heart quiver.

She spun, and the amethyst in her eyes gleamed a challenging light. " How do I look."

"Like you want to be pregnant again. Maybe I should have let you cosplay as a bear or panda."

Tip Toeing near my eye level, her bewitching smile tugged at my heart as she opened her hands, summoning a beautiful floppy sun-kissed hat. She donned it. " Well. We fucked a few times with the clothes on. If you like… which you will. You can fuck me till my clothes tear and my eyes drip with water."

AHHHHHHHHHHHH~ Why is my wife more vulgar than me? And why do I like it so much?

I need God!

"Well? Shall we?" Lilith began, wrapping her arms around me. Eagerly waiting.

Darkness flared over my being as the image of Earth from so long ago appeared in my mind's eye. I sucked in a large breath and reached forward. Into the darkness, Lilith and I stepped in, emerging out on the other side to a magnificent planet bathed in blue.

"It's pretty," Lilith whispered. "I heard within the Origin Realm this planet was eternally locked in a time chamber, Separating the concept of time from the Myriad heavens. To enter, one must relinquish all your qi to what only mortals can comprehend. Any less would be considered a sin against the Father and his experiment."

"Someone is full of knowledge these days."

She looked me over, arms tightening around me. And without warning, she pulled me down towards the world below; through various atmospheres, we flew before landing on top of a giant emerald statue, lifting a torch of sorts.

"Is this there, god?" Lilith asked, peering down.

"It's called the Statue of Liberty. Guess New York is our first stop. I haven't been here in ages. And if I remember, the statue was a gift of sorts. As for what. I have no idea. Seems like a waste of money to me. But you know. Anything to spend the budget before the end of the year and all."

Lilith turned with a half smile over her lips. "Don't you have like a hundred similar statues made in your image?"

"There is a function to mine, my lovely wife. They are there to spread my will!" I told her, both amused and annoyed.

"Your will? You represent utter chaos."

"Semantics."

Cheeks reddening, I pulled her away, receiving the strongest eye of judgment my wife had ever given me.

She wasn't wrong. I do represent utter chaos. But Order and Chaos go hand in hand. Order will always lead to chaos, and chaos will always lead to Order. They are the Yin and Yang of our reality.

"You can't run a kingdom in utter chaos. The idea of a Kingdom is based on Order."

"I know. Just wondering if you did. Shall we continue? I want to see everything! Here! And then the beach! I just hope it's blue… this water looks like toilet water."

"I think people call it murky," I responded.

"It's toilet water."
