Almost like it was fate, they all saw one image of the silhouette of a beautiful woman with one X and one diamond in each eye. Her long black hair flowed to the very edge of her seat as she stared at 8 long wooden poles that held the head of each emperor and queen.
And then at her very feet were the remaining rulers, which consisted of 4 empresses and 3 major queens who had taken over the role of "Main leader" within their kingdom.
Each woman crawled like an animal as they tried to get the woman's attention who sat on the throne with a sadistic smile.
The woman at her feet praised each of her twitching muscles as if she was the greatest spirit ever to exist.
The room fell silent as each Rulers face had gone pale due to fear of their future.

(Arpious POV)
"Well, what should we na her?" I ask Treyni as we all get out of the bath before our skin got too dry due to the boiling water.
"Mommy! Mommy! Look, she has wings!" Our daughter says, pointing at one of the various fire harpy maids with her eyes sparkling like stars in the night.
Oh yeah, she's my first child without wings. Even Zehar has wings despite him not being my biological child… But I assu she can create wings if she wants out of her vines, but I don't know if they'll actually be able to lift her.
"I see. She's pretty, right?" I ask my daughter, who vigorously nodded her head up and down in agreent.
"Flora?" Treyni suggests a na, but I wasn't delighted with it as I wanted to na my kids after gods from my previous life.
"Wait, she is a goddess, I think…." I mutter while racking my brain.
I swear I heard the goddess of plants in I think roman or maybe greek mythology was Flora… Well, it's a nice na, and I shouldn't go off what I think sounds nice but what suits her.
"Flora, you're na is Flora," I say, bending down to my daughter, whose eyes were sparkling once again.
"Flora! I'm Flora!" Flora says, jumping up and down in excitent before running down the hallway, way past the changing room.
"Shall I follow her, so she doesn't get lost?" The fire harpy maid, who Flora pointed out, requests politely.
"Yeah, and introduce her to her siblings," I say before entering the changing room.
…
"So, how is she?" I ask my gathered children and even Zehar's girlfriend, who was a Fire Siren.
Despite her flamboyant and bright appearance, she was clearly so nervous that she couldn't stop sweating, and her body was shaking at an unimaginable speed.
I chuckled slightly before listening to my children's reaction to their new younger sister.
"She's so cute!" Luna shouts while jumping up and down with Flora in her arms.
"Luna, I'm dizzy," Flora says.
"Nope, call Big Sister or Big Sis," Luna responds while touching the very tip of her petite nose.
"Okay, Big Sis… Please stop shaking ," Flora says, and after Luna stopped jumping up and down, Flora's eyes seed to spin around like a cartoon character.
"She's very petite. Don't worry, I'll make sure to take care of her," Hades says, with Freya nodding her head in agreent.
"Shes… cute, I guess?" Zehar says, shrugging his shoulder as we are clearly not that good with people despite having a girlfriend.
"So, how did you two et?" I ask Zehar's girlfriend, who was nad Ann.
"N-nice to et you, your highness, and if it's a long story, but I'll be willing to cut it into a shorter version if you should wish," Ann says extrely politely.
She was even more polite than my maids, so I was weirded out.
"No need to be so polite. Hopefully, you'll be my daughter in law soon so you can talk to casually,"
"A-as you wish… W-well, the short version is I was a warrior at the Arena of Twilight, and after I had one of the greatest matches of my career, Zehar noticed and asked out. But, my parents only wanted to date a man stronger than , so of course, we fought, and I ended up losing within only a few breaths," Ann says, but it was clear it was going to take so ti for her to speak casually with .
"That's a nice story, so Zehar, make sure to take care of her… Also, Hades and I are going to be gone for a few days as I want to go hunting to possibly evolve," I say before wrapping my arm around Hades and dragging him with out the castle doors.
"Mother, I can walk on my own," Hades says as we both exit the castle.
…
"Monster… You're a true monster, mother," Hades says as I sat on top of the large pile of about 60 Snow Drake corpses while scrolling through my status.
"Huh? You can't even do this?" I respond.
"Mother, please don't compare yourself to normal people," Hades sighs before taking all of the skeletons from each Snow Drake.
But, after he muttered the keyword "age," and each skeleton began to crawl out of its flesh, so began to fall apart and turn to dust, leaving only about 40 left for him to stash away in his shadow… which is apparently where he and his mother keep their necromantic summons.
"You know you're not normal as well?"
"I know I'm not normal, but when compared to your power, I'm just a small ant," Hades says before turning to the Snow Drake, which rapidly rushed towards him but was split in half by Hades' long sword.
[Level: 86/100]
I've killed more than 300 of these things, yet I've barely gained 7 levels… Such a pain… But I guess seeing what my reward is will be satisfying.
"I can hardly wait," I mutter as I watch Hades struggle against 6 Snow Drakes who tried to gang upon him.
SHING
I killed one of the 6 Snow Drakes with one swing, allowing Hades to regain his footing and finish off the rest of the Drakes.

(Hades POV)
Mother is a monster. A true monster among monsters… Yet, she still hasn't lost herself in greed, self-satisfaction, or beca drunken on power, craving for more with each passing second.
But, I did hear a story from my other Mother only a few hours ago that she almost did end up falling into the endless abyss of power and despair due to one of her skills.
I almost pitied my own mother for having to suffer so much when we can't do anything for her while she gives us so much.
Apparently, she has nightmares now that seem to be the only thing that phases her in a bad way, eventually needing her own wives to calm her down.
But after seeing the sight in front of , all the depressing and overthought thoughts slowly fizzled away as I watched my mother enjoy herself, slaughtering waves of Snow Drakes that ca after her.
I was even worried that the Snow Drakes might go extinct after Mother is done with them, but I believe mother knows that as well.
Age… Age… Age… Age…
Of course, I wasn't doing nothing as I watched mother slaughter hordes of monsters. I was helping chip away at the outer layer of Drakes while also building up my army slowly so I could hopefully reach my other mother's number of summons… if possible.
…
Another few hours had passed, and the night was slowly approaching, so we set up camp while eating the at of any Drake we could find… that wasn't crushed to pieces due to my mother's overpowered skills.
"HUFF HUFF HUFF HUFF… That was a nice workout," Mother says before digging into the large pile of at in front of her, and I as well didn't hold back.
It seems even mothers can run out of stamina and mana… Well, I'm not surprised when you take a gander at the side of this mountain.
My mother had rearranged part of the bio, turning it into a dusty dirt wasteland that continued to burn black flas, but they were gone with one snap of my mother's fingers.
So cool…
"Oh yeah, show your dusa," Mother says after turning her head away from the complete dirt and dry bio, which was out of place as it sits in the middle of a cold mountain top filled with snow.
"Sure, how much do you want to use?" I ask.
"Petrify below your feet without placing your hands on the ground…." Mother says, causing to sweat cold bullets.
"H-how exactly do I do that?" I respond very hesitantly but soon rembered the mother wasn't as harsh as my other one in front of .
"Oh, you can't even do that? Are you seriously even trying to think outside the box?" Mother says, causing to cough up so blood due to how passive yet painful her words were.
