Multiverse Conquest: Rise of the Saiyan Empire

Imperial Castle.

A man with his retainers was standing in a bloodied throne room.

The heads of Honest, his son, the last Emperor, and all the High Ranking officials lined up in front of him.

Kalluto and Illumi kneeling by his sides.

Marek smiled as not one of the little bugs were still in his field of vision.

"Are all the names on Najenda's list eliminated?"

Kalluto nodded:

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

"Is there any sign of riot or commotion?"

Illumi spoke a meaningful smile on his face:

"The Revolutionnary army seems a little concerned, but are not moving."

"The Empire will behave the same…"

"All the targets that were necessary for the function of the Empire are now my Little Puppets~."

Marek nodded:

"You've worked hard."

He turned around:

"Euphemia is already on her way, with some cute guests."

He had a fascinated smile:

"She is still as impressive as ever. Those two are already confident enough to follow her."

His vision, then refocused on a fierce woman, blue haired ice woman advancing to his door. Battle ready.

He laughed amused:

"She has quit the instinct, she is already onto something."

He sighed:

"But you would need much more that…To face the incoming challenges, Esdeath."

He turned around and looked at the two:

"Would you accompany me?"

Kalluto nodded:

"It's my pleasure, your majesty."

Illumi moved rather lazily:

"I can't leave now~ The Real Show is about to begin!"

Two other hooded silhouettes appeared as they acknowledged:

"We will too."

"Bayek and Aya."

"Good."

He advanced as he stared at the vacant throne.

He sat on it, as he said:

"Now that the filth is gone, I can finally sit down."

By his sides each of Killua, Illumi, Bayek and Aya were standing an ominous aura oozing from them.

The whole image was like that of a Demon King sitting, his minions by his sides.

He made the first order:

"Bayek. Go bring her to me."

As he nodded, he disappeared, from the room.

Esdeath was advancing on the Imperial Palace, her squad following her!

As this reduced squad of 100 Elites, marched like one man, they were suddenly stopped by a Hooded Person.

Esdeath smiled, interested by his flawless movement technique:

"Great movement. It seems I have found myself a good adversary."

But before she could engage the man spoke in his ominous manner:

"Only Esdeath is allowed to come."

"The Rest needs to go back. I will not repeat myself twice."

The members of her squad were riled up!

And as their were about to pounce they were stopped by Esdeath's signal:

"And what's it in there for me?"

The Hooded man smiled:

"Your squad get to live another day, how is that for a change?"

Esdeath narrowed her eyes, offended that someone would threaten her subordinates in front of her:

"You talk big, are you able-!!!"

But before she could continue her words! Dark Red sparks appeared from the man as The Will of the Kings made its appearance again!!

Immense pressure !! A pressure that only kings could face!!

"I said I won't repeat myself twice."

Esdeath was able to endure the immense immaterial force coming for him, as she saw everyone of her prideful men fall like withering leaves!

Her gaze changed as she realized that the man in front of her was no joke.

'I can't even fathom the bottom of his power.'

She smiled:

"Interesting."

"I will follow you."

Bayek sneered:

"That was easier than expected."

"Are you disappointed?"

She laughed:

"What you showed me now, makes me only want to see what's behind that gate even more!"

He disappeared as he left words:

"Then, Be prepared, Great General."

With a long smile she made her way to the Imperial Gate, alone. Her heart pounding like that of an inexperienced maiden.

Finally she opened the door.

She was met with blood.

She looked at the Young Emperor's head, the Prime Minister's, and all the official's with cold indifference.

This was already within her previsions.

She made way and as the Shade of the Imperial Hall, thickened.

The Throne began to appear, as the darkened silhouette by his side appeared one after the other exuding suffocating aura!

Esdeath felt her whole existence hanging by a Thread!!

Two Members of the Zoldyck Family whose blood-lust and strength vastly outclasses hers!

Two other Members of the Named Ones whose simple will could obliterate her!

Esdeath felt her breath rugged, her strength slowly leaving her limbs, as her steps got slower and slower, until she felt like a little larva advancing in a unknown endless abyss!

Despite that, she preserved, despite her instincts telling her to flee on sight!!

Because! From all her heart…She wanted to see who was sitting on that throne!!

She didn't know why, but since she entered her, her only though was to see the person sitting there!

At the top!!

The Top! Of the Food Chain!

The allure of the Strongest!!

Her effort, finally paid off, as she finally perceived a silhouette covered in Darkness. The Man on the Throne.

Esdeath eyes were excited as she finally faced him.

Yet before she could actually see him!

She crossed his eyes, his dark abyss eyes glowing in the dark with Three Great Stars in it!

The eyes were profound, powerful, majestic, like they could see through all creation!!

Those eyes kept growing in her field vision until it was all she could see!

Her whole body felt colder than it ever was.

But this wasn't the coldness of Snow and Ice, this was the coldness of the Reaper.

Her field of vision darkened as the eyes kept getting bigger until it felt like they would engulf her whole being!

'Such Strength!'

'We are not even on the same plan of existence!'

'I am like a particle of dust in front of him!'

She gulped up and down.

'I never thought I would feel like this one day!'

In the middle of her deep existential crisis, the man finally spoke:

"General Esdeath."

His doubled voice only made him more intimidating. Esdeath laughed in response:

"Yes, Mister Emperor."

Even though, the ominous eyes were still getting a hold of her soul, she still responded boldly!

"As you see. Your Emperor is dead, your Prime minister too, and the rest of your Empire with it."

There was some amusement in his tone:

"As, I heard…"

"You go by a simple creed, don't you?"

" Could you remind me of it?"

It may seem like a demand, but in this situation, it was nothing short of an Order!!

Esdeath had slight smile on:

"The strong survives and the weak dies!"

She could hear him chuckling lightly:

"I see…Good Philosophy…But tell me…"

His Ki all downed on her, as she felt difficulty even standing up!

"In this situation…Who is the strong…."

She could even see a slight smirk in the midst of the Darkness covering him:

"And who is the Weak!!!"

On the other side of the Room, just a little while after Esdeath entered.

Some quite familiar people made their way to the entrance of the Imperial Hall, where they met in their way with a beautiful green haired beauty.

But Najenda and Akame didn't even have the time to present themselves, when they saw Esdeath, the Empire's strongest, whose strength have been haunting Najenda's nightmares, barely able to stand up!

In front of what seemed like four silhouettes bathing in a never-ending darkness.

C.C chuckled:

"He is really going all out isn't he?"

Euhpemia had a resigned smile:

"You know how serious he is when it comes to recruitment, sigh…"

Esdeath took a deep breath

"You are."

She smiled resigned to her fate:

"And I, as the weak, is at your mercy."

There was a little disappointment in her heart, but there was no regrets, like Lelouch said:

'She is the kind of person who is brutally honest with herself.'

She prepared herself for the incoming sentence but…

There was nothing. The man only stood there silent and laughed lightly extremely entertained by her response.

"Good."

"I could easily end your life, if you wish."

"But since, you are at my mercy, as you say."

"You won't find any issue with me doing as I please with you~"

Esdeath felt her whole body shiver as she had a defying smile:

"Give me your best!"

She was prepared for the worst humiliations, the most terrible punishments, something herself couldn't do!!

Najenda sighed deeply:

'This person is irredeemable…'

She heard his doubled laugh rise again in the darkness:

"Good!! Good!! Then prepare yourself for your judgement!!"

Suddenly the Darkness started slowly disappearing from the hall. As the Silhouette sitting on the Throne stood up.

Esdeath looked up at the incoming lean man.

He spoke, his tone much less domineering and intimidating than before as he made his first step:

"First of all, I sentence you to a million lifetimes of wars and blood under my orders"

His words seemed to be a horrible order, yet his voice had deep Kindness within it.

Making all the people around feel unprecedented warmth in their heart.

Marek Vega, the man who is the personification of the 'Dark Kindness' of the Vega Dynasty, exuded that trait perfectly.

Esdeath who realized, this man was giving her what she wanted, didn't even feel excitement by the prospect of future wars.

And this moment....She was focusing on a weird feeling sprouting in her heart. A somewhat painful yet warm sensation.

He made the second step, as the bottom of his Dark Green Caftan started appearing, his lean frame even more on display than before.

"Second of all, I order you to protect and respect every citizen of my Empire. "

His kind voice only got warmer, as the man's charisma seemed to know no bounds!

Even Najenda and Akame felt it deeply.

'This man is special.'

But the one who felt it the most was Esdeath herself, she felt her heart cold from the approach of death, pound like it was resurrected from burning heat.

Finally, he made his Third Step, as the entirety of his body appeared. Only his face, still shrouded by the darkness.

His voice this time, had deep affection in it, something you wouldn't show to a 'normal servant'. But this…

Only Najenda and C.C saw it:

"Third of all, I sentence you to an eternity of servitude by my side."

Esdeath hearing the last order, felt her heart pound even harder, all her mind completely focusing on the weird feeling on her heart.

Her ears were perked up, as all her senses seemed to be drunk on his every word.

Rising her face, she heard his calm, rauque voice, ringing like a lullaby to her soul:

"What do you say? Do you accept your fate?"

She could feel the anticipation in his voice, as 'her female' radar ticked:

'He is definitely younger than me.'

She smiled powerlessly, still not understanding her own feelings, her face seemed as fragile as ice glass.

Something nor Najenda neither Akame ever saw.

Recognizing her defeat in every aspect imaginable she responded:

"I will…"

And like her own mouth was longing to pronounce it she said it:

"Your Majesty."

Mesmerized by her face for a while, the Emperor finally realizing he got what he wanted...

Had the same reaction he had when Lelouch and Silva swore allegiance to him.

For him, this allegiance was as important!

His solemn face, slowly turned into a boyish grinning one, like he was the happiest child in the World!

As Esdeath felt all the pressure disappear from her shoulders, her blue eyes landed on his uncovered face.

His face was young, all his traits exuded warmth, as he smiled from the bottom of his heart.

He wasn't handsome, but his boyish smile on his young face made him look like a pure happy child!

He approached her, a big grin on. He then extended his hand.

His smile glowed more brightly making Esdeath feel like she was witnessing a burning sun:

"Welcome to the Family, Esdeath."

Even Najenda, Akame and Euphemia couldn't be unfazed by his expression.

But Esdeath felt like her heart was about to come out from her throat, her face in a deep shade of red.

She extended her hand clumsily, feeling the power and serenity behind his grip:

"Thank you. Your Majesty."

If she didn't understand her feelings earlier.

Now they were clear!

C.C smiled as she made eye contact with Euphemia:

"It seems it worked like a charm~"

Najenda who understood the look on Esdeath face, sighed as she took off one of her long cigarettes:

'And here I though I have seen everything there is to see in this life.'

She looked at Kassandra's worshiping eyes as she remembered her word:

'His majesty could do it.'

She stood up as the two faced each other up close.

Esdeath who for the first time in her life felt love, would normally, as she always does, bully her way into his heart.

But now, as she still felt the strength behind his grip, she felt deeply frustrated as she restrained herself:

'No…I am not strong enough.'

'I can't stand by his side, not yet.'

Determination appeared on her slightly blushed face:

'Until then…'

Even since she witnessed the destruction of her clan, she never felt the need to be stronger as much as she did now!

As he continued grinning he taped her shoulder:

"You will see. With me, you will never get bored."

Although, she was very much looking forward to the wars he was referring too, she was a little offended by his casual tap on her shoulder.

What the Hell?

It felt like he acted the way she did with her subordinates.

It was normally okay, but in this situation, she felt something was wrong with it!

In reality, even Euphemia and C.C were surprised by his attitude.

The two seemed like a match made in Heaven.

Yet, Marek was still completely casual in his comportment.

After all, he had in mind her 'List' of qualities she liked in a man.

But even that, was actually a stupid argument, Marek was only still weirdly fixated on the Comparison between him and Tatsumi.

Because if he gave to anyone else that 'List' they would say Marek is a perfect match!

I- Must Possess a Deep well of untapped ability. I wish to mold him into a person of General Class Abilities.

With his Eyes and His Legendary Super Saiyan Body is not a well of untapped ability. But a Whole Endless Ocean!

And Even someone like Esdeath and Najenda could see that he wasn't even near his peak!

While she can't mold her, he would be the one to mold her into someone of Genral Class Abilities!!

But if one were to take her words as looking for a 'Talented' man. There isn't a more perfect fit in the Whole Multiverse!!

II- Must be Fearless. A Person who can hunt the most dangerous species of the World with me.

Since he was child, and as portrayed by his early encounter with Aeleis Father, Marek as Malé never feared anyone in the world! This was actually one of his redeeming qualities as a crown prince!

III- Cannot be Raised in the Capital. Must be Raised in the outskirts of the Empire like me.

Marek never even set foot in the Capital until today. And even Marek actual Childhood in the Fairy Tail world was in a rural area resembling Esdeath's and Tatsumi's.

IV- Must be under my direct control. So must be younger than me.

Because of his Elder Sister's influence on him, Marek tend to concede control to older women fairly easily. The exact thing Esdeath is referring too here.

V- One who has pure and innocent smiling face would be nice.

Well this one and its explanation is pretty obvious!!

Yet the only one who didn't seem to see that was the concerned himself!

He was already pretty upset by Lina, so trying to give his heart to another woman mindlessly was already out of his mind!
