"I want to ****, Lrval of Sermal."

  "I want to have enough talent to be a World God."

  "I want to be a King,"

  "I want Lrval to Fall for me!"

  "I want to be Invincible."

  "I want……

  "I……"

  Greed, that was all I could see; it was honestly disgusting how much people wanted yet refuse to work for it. They crave and crave without limit. Yet, no matter what they asked for, the hells would grant, condemning them to an eternity of suffering.

  I finally began to understand how the hells would condemn a person. It was based upon their wish and personality. Aside from the few whose souls that were sent directly to hell, many of those I contracted lost something important to them.

  A man who wished for money would lose the ability to feel self-satisfaction regarding anything he did. A man who wished to be invincible would lose his body entirely, becoming a soul that was in truth invincible.

  However, I made sure all of this would happen within a few days to a decade. Depending on what it was, I began bending my words. However, while I was quite happy regarding my contracts, I could not help but feel contempt for those I helped.

  Shaking my head, I sent out the last person who I contracted. He was a man who wanted to kill the man who slaughtered and raped his wife at the cost of his love for her.

  "Was it truly worth the cost?" I muttered, "Whatever, with this, I will have a sizeable spy network. Of the seven thousand I contracted, all of them have become my spies without them even knowing. This number is small when compared to the city, but it is better than nothing.

  "Ezra will have a shit load of work to do. Well, she wanted to do this."

  This city will soon be under my control. I already have many……

  "Are you Arsene Snow? I am Garbhan Orgv Patriarch of the Orgv clan. My son Orion tells me many great things about you." A deep voice sounded, cutting off my thoughts

  Now, this is interesting. I was planning on gathering everyone around him before taking him down. I wonder what he will wish for?

  Smiling, I nodded, "I am; what is your wish?"

  "Straight to the point, huh?" He voiced in an aged tone. Studying the exhaustion within his breath and eyes, I frowned, sensing his end approaching.

  "I…… I want more time. I am not close to breaking through, and I do not have much life left within me."

  Pondering how I needed to phrase this, I heard the Nines voice sound once more inside my soul.

  "Oh?" I hummed as I nodded towards Garbhan, "I could give you life, but it will cost you depending on how much you want?"

  Opening his eyes wide, I could see both hope and trepidation. Snickering at the look I had seen within those before, I continued, "Depending on how much it is, I will take something within your possession. Please pick how many years you wish for?"

  Scrunching his brow, I could see caution as he flared his brow, pondering what I would ask for. "what would you take if I asked for a hundred thousand years?"

  "I would take your Anima Vestra that you hold," I stated for the first time, speaking of my terms. In Latin, Anima Vestra means "Your Soul," but Garbhan did not know of this.

  "Oh? I think I have heard of that? I indeed have such a thing within my collection." He said with a foxy grin causing me to laugh inwardly. I knew he must be trying to fool me into believing he was in possession of an Anima.

  "Then we have a deal," I stated, pulling out my palm as he shook my hand without hesitation. Suddenly a massive amount of life began to fill his body as his aged appearance began to vanish. Opening my eyes to the massive change from a shrivel worm into a magnificent man with long black hair and deep powerful-looking muscles, I nodded, "Good, now for my end."

  Laughing in disdain, Garbhan snorted, "boy, you truly are too green. You should do your research; I do not have anything within my collection that is called Anima Vestra.

  "Oh? It seems you don't seem to understand. Anima Vestra means your soul, my dear thrall." I whispered in a hollow tone as a cold shiver ran through his body. Opening his mouth wide, I didn't bother to speak as a white flame began to form within my palm.

  Slowly the hells began to take what was its as a crimson light flowed from its core into the hells. I scream fill with anguish, and sin could be heard as I saw something rather strange. The very soul began to morph from pure white to black almost instantly. As if all its defenses were gone, the soul was corrupted. However, this was not the end. The very soul was beginning to grow more compact as a sinful aura consumed my hand.

  Sending Garbhan a subtle look, I myself did not notice anything strange, as he merely stared at his soul within my palm. No word sounded from his mouth as I closed my fist, returning his soul back to its rightful place.

  "A Dark Star will be quite a useful tool. Speak to Orion; he will inform you of your new role, my little slave."

  "FUCK—"

  Snapping my fingers, the light within his eyes vanished as he became silent; however, deep whin his soul, I could see him screaming, begging to be released. Snicerking, I dismissed the thrall before summoning my next victim.

  And so, like this, I spent the rest of my days creating an army, turning those I wish into slaves or adding them to my network. Feeling rather blissful, another day passed before Ezra appeared before me with a disdainful glint.

  "You know you're using these contracts wrong, correct, right? "

  Smiling, I snickered, "Personal gain will come soon, my dear. I fully understand how broken these contracts are. However, everything will come with time; those that wish to please me will arrive soon, and my quest of domination shall begin."

  "Speaking of today is the day…… I have counted over twenty world kings, seven world Saints, and one Dao Protector. You need to be careful and stay by my side."

  "Fine, but don't you want to make a deal for your master? Wishing for his protection within the Auction house? I am sure someone will try to kill me."

  Rolling her eyes, I could see an evil hue as she smirked, "Lilith is already there, awaiting your arrival. You already have the protection you wish for."

  Laughing in a casual manner, I arose as Ezra placed her palm upon my shoulder. Watching space begin to bend and shift, my eyes slowly turned chilling as various divine senses shot towards me.
