Chapter 119: Chat with Death

In Death's realm.

"What are you going to do next, dear? You have enough points to jump to another world. Are you planning to do that?" Death asked.

She was currently semi-naked, lounging on a lavishly dark chaise. After breakfast, Death had summoned me to her realm, ostensibly for a simple chat. But if anyone were to look at us, they could easily tell we did much more than just talk. (They had sex, obviously.)

As I took in her ethereal beauty, I couldn't help but notice a peculiar expression on her face—something akin to jealousy. It was strange, considering she was the one who had encouraged me to build a harem in the first place.

"Thinking about the future, are we?" I replied, stretching out beside her. "I haven't decided yet. There's a lot to consider."

Death's eyes, usually so inscrutable, held a flicker of something more human. "You've been busy with your new companions. Albedo, Shalltear, Yuri... even that new girl, Issey."

I raised an eyebrow, amused. "Jealous, are we?"

She huffed, crossing her arms in a manner that was almost petulant. "Nonsense. I simply find it interesting how much time you spend with them."

"Right," I said, unable to hide my grin. "Interesting, huh?"

Death's frown deepened, but there was a hint of a smile tugging at her lips. "It's just... you seem to be very... affectionate with them. Daily hugs and kisses, constant attention. It's understandable, I suppose."

"So, you're saying you miss the daily affection?" I asked, teasingly.

Death rolled her eyes but didn't deny it. "Maybe. It's not like I can pop into your world for a hug whenever I want."

I chuckled, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her closer. "Well, I'm here now. And I'll always make time for you, you know that."

She sighed, resting her head on my shoulder. "I suppose. It's just... being Death isn't exactly conducive to warm, fuzzy feelings."

"Then let's make the most of the time we do have," I said, pressing a kiss to her temple. "Besides, you get to be the mysterious, otherworldly beauty that no one else can have. That's got to count for something."

Death laughed, a rare and enchanting sound. "I suppose it does. Still, it wouldn't hurt to have a little more... interaction. After all, I did tell you to build a harem, didn't I?"

"That you did," I agreed. "But that doesn't mean you're any less important to me."

"Good," she said, her tone softening. "Because despite everything, I do enjoy our time together."

"And I enjoy our time too," I replied, pulling her closer. "Now, about those other worlds... I plan to continue my world hopping after I deal with Riser Phenex and increase Rias, Koneko, and Akeno's affection for me."

"More like after you bed them," Death said, smirking.

"That's one way to put it," I admitted, chuckling.

"Speaking of Rias and her friends," Death said after a while, "how do you plan on dealing with Riser Phenex without publishing your identity to the whole world."

"That, my dear Death, you'll have to watch and see," I said with a sly grin. "I don't want to spoil the surprise."

"Oh my, you're starting to keep secrets from me now?" Death teased, her tone light but with a hint of curiosity. "Then I shouldn't tell you what happened with Shalltear, should I?"

I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What happened with Shalltear?"

Death smirked, clearly enjoying the role reversal. "Well, if you insist on keeping your plans a mystery, maybe I should keep my secrets too."

I chuckled, shaking my head. "Alright, alright. Truce. What did Shalltear do?"

Death's expression softened as she leaned in closer. "After you slept with Shalltear, I summoned her to my domain, and the first thing she did after seeing me was to equip her battle armor and start attacking me."

"Seriously?" I asked, incredulous.

"Seriously."

"But didn't she know you are Death? Like, the actual embodiment of Death?"

"Yes," Death replied, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "She knew exactly who I was."

"Then why did she attack you?" I asked, still baffled.

"She thought she could become the first wife after defeating me."

I burst out laughing, unable to contain myself. "She actually thought she could take your place by defeating you in combat?"

Death nodded, a wry smile on her lips. "She's very determined, I'll give her that."

"And how did that go?" I asked, still chuckling.

"Oh, it was quite the spectacle," Death said, her eyes sparkling with mirth. "She gave it her all, but obviously, she was no match for me."

"Did you at least let her down easy?" I asked, picturing the scene.

"Of course," Death replied. "Once she realized she wasn't going to win, she was quite apologetic. We had a long talk about her feelings and her place in your life."

"I can imagine," I said, shaking my head with a smile. "Shalltear always was the overprotective type."

"She's fiercely loyal, that's for sure," Death said. "And she needed reassurance that her place in your life was secure."

"I'm glad you were able to help her," I said sincerely. "Shalltear means a lot to me, and I want her to feel secure."

"Well, she certainly proved her loyalty," Death said with a chuckle. "After things calmed down, she was very respectful. I think she just needed to express her dedication in her own unique way."

"Unique is one way to put it," I said, laughing. "Thanks for handling that, Death."

"Anytime," Death said, giving me a warm smile. "And come visit me often so I can milk you more often."

"That's erotically scary." I said, giving her one last kiss. "I'll always come back, after all you are the death, aren't you."
