Multiverse Conquest: Rise of the Saiyan Empire

Chapter 252: First Meeting



She then, smiled faintly before speaking to the void:

"Matsuda, Motohama…."

"Are you unwilling to see this Empress?"

Immediately by their side…appeared two powerful Saiyan Warriors draped in the Empire's robes…

"How dare we?!"

"We just didn't want to disturb the Empress."

The Two spoke at the same time, kneeling in reverence. Empire etiquette is already bred in their bones.

Issei looked at the pious duo….Where was all the sneering and arrogance from before?

Devran looked at the two youths…Roygun nodded:

"Rise."

The Two stood up, yet the moment they saw who was standing, their eyes shrunk!!!

But their eyes weren't on Roygun but on the Mysterious Woman by his side!!

They immediately knelt once more:

"Matsuda(Motohoma), greets her majesty the Mother Empress!"

In their voice, there was a tinge of dread!! This is the woman the Vizirs especially told them to be wary of!!

Akeno and Rias who heard these words, were all horrified!!

'Mother Empress!!!'

'What kind of big shot is that!!!'

They felt their back turn cold!!

Devran looked at the two youths, and smiled playfully, keenly noticing the dread on their faces:

"I didn't expect my old lady to be this known, by the younger generation."

She looked deeply at the two boys, her eyes suddenly glowed with surprise!

She mastered the power of the Imperium long ago, so she had better mastery of it than Roygun…She could see it…

The 'Favor' the Imperium was giving these two!!

She only detected this kind of favor on Mercedes and the Marshalls…

But unlike these two, this favor is hidden in the depths of their consciousness as of now, dormant, waiting to be awakened!!

She thought about some things, Sophia once told her…Her eyes became solemn

She asked Roygun by telepathy:

"Roygun, where is the first world his Majesty brought subordinates from?"

Roygun responded:

"This one, and those two are…"

"I see…"

She smiled faintly; her eyes curved like crescent moon…Her Imperial Aura became more pleasing:

"Your names, are Motohama and Matsuda."

She laughed lightly; her voice was like little bell pleasing to the ears:

"I shall await your heroic deeds."

Her eyes became solemn:

"The war is getting closer and closer. You should get ready."

The Two responded, with eyes full of fighting intent!

"We shall be!!!"

Roygun smiled lightly:

"Since the Chaos Brigade finally attacked, the Underworld."

"It is time for you to leave this world."

The two Saiyans eyes widened. Ise looked at the two of them with a complicated gaze. But while Ise's focus was on that. Akeno and Rias was on a sentence of the Empress.

'Finally attacked?'

'Did she already know?!!'

"You will be training in the Janissaries camp before entering the regular army of the 9 Generals."

"As per his Majesty's orders."

Matsuda and Motohama nodded solemnly. Their eyes filled with endless fighting intent.

"Yes, your Majesty!!"

"Also…"

Roygun then smiled playfully…

"Bring with you, your little women…."

"I will give them a place in the Imperial palace."

"They will study the bases of Imperial nobility with this Empress."

Matsuda and Motohoma were a little flustered:

"This…"

"Your Majesty…"

Roygun laughed charmingly:

"This is not an order but a suggestion…It all depends on what your ladies want."

The Two nodded:

"Yes! Your Majesty!!"

Britania…Seven Deadly Sins World

The Emperor made his way and stepped out, arriving in front of a towering castle…

Where the previous ruins of Beliaun stood once…

The Emperor marched slowly….and arrived at the throne room.

He stood up there…Motionless…His eyes reveling in complexity. He finally smiled lightly:

"You did a good job, Eivor."

A nimble and slender girl appeared. She had a fierce and heroic temperament, she knelt. The Emperor lightly patted her head.

It was intimate behavior that the Emperor could only display in this 'deserted castle':

"Are there here yet?"

Eivor as if rejoicing in this kind gesture of the Emperor, took a little time before responding:

"They've all arrived."

"They could be brought to the Purgatory at any time."

The color of approval, appeared on his eyes.

"Did Braham take whatever he could from this city?"

Eivor responded:

"Yes, your majesty."

"His 'Rewind' restored all the libraries and the memories of Belialiun."

"He is waiting for your majesty's call."

Marek laughed lightly:

"Did the other Human Kingdoms visit the place?"

Eivor eyes revealed ominous light:

"They didn't."

"But…"

"There is one human, that have been looking for traces of your majesty."

Marek smiled faintly:

"Of course, she did."

"The tentation of the 'unknown'…."

"How could she resist it?"

He had a smile on his face, but his eyes revealed were as dark and somber as the most ominous night:

"Merlin…"

"It is indeed hard to tolerate your existence."

Eivor trembled slightly. She felt it faintly, the irritation of the Monarch.

"Ignore her."

The Emperor marched and casually sat on the Throne. His upper arm against the Arm set. His right hand against his upper jaw. His dark abyss eyes, lacking any semblance of light.

"Summon all of them."

"Yes, your majesty."

"I wish you a great success in your endeavor."

In the luxurious guest rooms… Four Mages and a knight were sitting across from each other.

The Three had somewhat tense faces… Be it Zeref, Irene or Ultear felt the vastness and the grandness of the castle once they set foot in it.

More importantly, they met…'A Mage'…

This mage was so handsome one would think that such being could not possibly be real.

Even Zeref had to look twice.

The power he exuded, was so unfathomably powerful it made him somewhat suffocated.

Braham maintained an aloof disposition. He knew who these magi were.

They were his future 'partners'. Mages that the Emperor judged to be as talented as himself. Braham was a little unhappy with this, and he showed it.

If they wanted to be his equals, they needed to prove their genius!

If they don't!! He may as well be the only Imperial Mage!!

Feeling the faint hostility from the Monstrous Mage…The three took a deep breath, not knowing what they did wrong.

Mercedes seemingly unaware of what's happening, only rested, her eyes closed.

Suddenly!!

Braham and Mercedes eyes opened up!!!

In them delight was apparent!

The hostile and the aloof Mercedes showed a delighted smile!!!

"He is here!!"

"His Majesty's had arrived!!"

Immediately after, a hooded silhouette appeared:

"His Majesty is waiting for you."

Mercedes stood up:

"Follow me."

The other all stood up.

After a while, they found themselves in front of a giant Imperial Gate.

Mercedes smiled lightly before pushing open the door.

Irene took a deep breath.

Zeref had a solemn gaze.

While Ultear eyes gleamed with curiosity.

The door opened up!!

And as if a Sesame was opened up!! A Wave of Invincible Imperial Aura was unleashed on the world!!

This aura didn't seem quite real. This wasn't a physical energy-based coercion like with Braham.

No…

To geniuses like Zeref and Irene, they knew…

This was different.

It was as if the sky itself was taking a long breath.

Mercedes made her first steps, immediately without further ado, she knelt, her head nearly touching the ground:

"Your Majesty, your knight has accomplished her duty."

The voice was melodious, pious and mighty. The love and the respect she had for her liege couldn't be possibly be doubted.

Following her, Irene, Zeref and Ultear.

As the silhouette sitting casually on the Throne appeared before their eyes. All three of their eyes shrunk.

Draped in Dark Green Imperial Robes, his eyes as dark as the darkest, starless, moonless nights.

His facial features couldn't be qualified as handsome. But there was something about it that people found it hard to fathom.

Was it the superior grace of a Ruler, or the Hidden Voracity that seemed to wait to erupt in any corner of his face?

Zeref and Irene, the moment they saw this man. They realized.

'This is a very dangerous man.'

No…

This is the most dangerous man they ever met.

And yet…

…Somehow, such a man held some kind invariable and overwhelming attraction to them.

Yes…His eyes were full of ferocity and endless tyranny.

But equally…

They seem to know love and compassion more than anything else.

His prideful smile, seemed to change from shade to another.

Once benevolent.

The Next Cruel!!

Marek looked down on Mercedes:

"Good job, Mercedes."

"Stay behind here."

His doubled voice resounded like thunder, in the ears of the present here. No matter how calm his voice.

The Might behind it couldn't be concealed.

Mercedes nodded and took her due place by the Emperor's side. So did Braham.

Exposing the three to the Emperor's gaze.

The Three immediately felt endless horror from this simple gaze!

If Mercedes eyes made them feel like they were naked, the Emperor's eyes made them feel like vain ants. Not worth considering at all.

The Emperor's eyes swiftly landed on Zeref:

"It's been a while. Zeref."

"It seems you are still troubled by that little curse."

Zeref hearing the Emperor addressing him, took a deep breath and took a polite bow:

"I am the same your majesty met years ago."

Marek nodded lightly:

"That time, this Emperor, promised you. That if you swore loyalty to the Empire."

"Your curse shall be erased."

Irene eyes opened wide. Immediately realized why Zeref acted so inexplicably the last few years.

The Emperor smiled a little amused:

"I saw doubts in your face, that time."

He narrowed his eyes:

"What do you think of it now?"

"This curse imposed on you and your beloved, by the Gods."

"Can this Emperor solve it?"

Feeling the mighty breath of the Emperor, Zeref didn't even dare to peak at the kind of power the man in front of him held.

But if he were to make an analogy…A God would be the closest in his imagination to this kind of being. He smiled calmly:

"Of course. Otherwise, how could I be here before your majesty."

After the first shock, the Dark Mage regained his temperament. It's been a while since he was indifferent to life and death.

Only the hope of a better solution could ignite his cold, dead heart.

Marek laughed; his laugh was like a thunderstorm shaking every being to his core!!
