Chapter 128

Kaizen

"Announcing Prince Kaizen, Brother of the King." Said Mr. Julian, the head omega servant. I asked them not to do all the titles If they had to say mine, my mate, AND my kids, just that would have us here all day. That isn't even including everyone else.

The moment our feet hit the marble floors of the throne room, the boys squirmed.

"Lustwros!" Screamed Ari.

"ZoWroTos!" yelled Vex.

"AriSStaous!" Shouted Zolotos, hissing his 's'.

"Vexstwrios!" yelled my little nephew Lustros, and honestly it was cute as fuck.

Willow put them down and they slid in place a second before they ran full speed across the throne room. Zolotos flapped with all his little might, not getting very far off the ground. The four . They *immediately* started biting.

"Oh gods damn it." Said Tyson with a smile. "I'm replacing the floors with fucking black granite if it cracks."

"Already ordered sir." Said Ronitus.

All 4 basically heated the floor enough to crack it Right after the Second ordered so much stone Father's quarry is going to make millions this year.

I thought this was going to be some kind of wholesome thing or something, but then I remember how much fun it was to get Grace or Tyson to tattle on me for pulling their ears.

"Good Kaizen's paying." Said Tyson.

"Ha, ha, King of the Wolves." I rolled my eyes. "The floor's already broke; want to help the mortals take it up?"

"Sure." In an instant he summoned his sword, and the pups ran to their mothers. They wagged their little tails, knowing that we were only playing too.

We both teleported to the center, and sparred probably faster than the Omegas and Council could see. I know I was wrong to do it, but I did give him a good smack in the neck.

"You Bitch!" Tyson laughed.

"Bad!" Said Vex.

"Oooo bad word." Said Lustros. My nephew barked at his papa until we stopped our spar.

"Sorry son." He said sheepishly, and there were chuckles.

Tyson teleported again. He was *fast* but I was *faster*.

He hits harder though.

"You play too much!" I growled when he bonked me on the head with the flat of his sword, It made a bit of a shockwave under our feet.

"You've bopped me like three times harder than that!" he complained.

"But you're hitting too hard!" I shouted headbutting him.

Headbutting is more fun than it should be... I like the clicky-clack.

We stopped though, A small drop of blood mirrored both our foreheads. It was a draw.

"I told you my grandsons were good." Said grandfather.

"Grawnpa!" The little ones screamed but who was he talking to?

"I still . Really want one." Said the God of War. He held Vex, and got nipped fingers that didn't bleed. "Look at that fire. Kaizen let me have one, eh? I'll pick him up when he's two decades. He can marry my daughter, the Demigoddess of Delegation and Tactics Is that fair?"

"No." I said firmly, but he thought I was playing hard ball.

"You're right. Sorry I lowballed you. He's an Upper General too" He scratched his chin. "How about my 9th? She's single. Joan Arches took a vow of chastity though. But a mate bond would nullify such a promise"

"I cannot put a price on my sons." I said calmly, but Willow looked about ready to cuss him out

"I feel that At least let me get dibs on their training." He asked excitedly. "Damn I forgot there's *three* of you-OH My Gods A Baby Dwagan!" Lord Aris held Vex and gently snatched the poorly flying lil' Zozo and they kind of bit his ears.

"Fuck off Bird Boy." Said Xaxas.

"Oh come on!" War yelled, holding the boys like plushies. "I never get to have *any* fun. You won't let me make WWIII. You won't let me unleash the Rage Plague. You won't even let me have concubines anymore. I treat them good!"

"I said Pick A *Goddess to WED* and It's Too Effective! I already told you if you're going to make a new affliction, a cure Must be POSSIBLE for MORTALS to figure out!" Yelled Uncle Xaxas.

"They'll be Fine! I worked 200 thousand years on that damn project!" He yelled back.

"NO. And if you ask again, or for my nephews, I'm going to smite you again." He hissed.

War looked like he saw a ghost.

"I Wouldn't *Actually* Fucking Do That!" Xaxas yelled at him, summoning a newspaper and bonking him on the head with it.

"Ow!" Aris complained. "You so would; especially if I beat your ass agai-OW!" he held his head. He'd earned a second bonk it was paper. About the most he hurt was Aris's pride.

"Stop being dramatic. I didn't say you couldn't visit." Xaxas held Aristaeus to his chest.

"Uncle." He beamed.

"Fuck I want some twins."

The royal court was silent.

"Why don't you?" Asked grandfather. "I'm sure you could do this right now."

My uncle fucking *panicked* now that he'd said it in company like the Horned One It's *going* to happen. Grandpa loves his grandchildren, and Xaxas is an incredibly high god mated to the Risen One. Their pup might be a Lesser God, not a demigod.

But I doubt they'll have a number higher than 7 or 8? Maybe 9.

Neat.

". I don't know. I'll swing it by Harmony. I Shit. I gotta go." He vanished.

Grandfather laughed. "That's the same reaction I had when I realized I had to make him."

"Are you going to make their son?" Asked Willow.

"Xaxashevaal would be a good father, but I will at least give him a *chance* to first."

"Can I request something?" Asked Grace.

"What?"

". I had an idea If he is the Judge shouldn't there be a Jury and Exicutioner?"

That was a good idea It reminded me of the human saying 'The Judge, the Jury, and the Exicutioner.'

The Court of Night Is Incomplete

"You should be the one to text that to him. I feel like if I say it, he'll take offence that I interfere. Said the Horned One

----Xaxas----

I didn't go home. I went to my realm.

"Your majesty do you need anyth-"

"No." I said almost angrily, since I was angry with myself.

I wouldn't though my demons would rip that innocnet soul apart, and offer them up on my altar from something as simple as a glare

You can't buy loyalty like that. It is earned by being a good god.

Fuck..

What if I'm not?! What if they only serve because it is my will? I let them breathe and live as they please so long as they break no laws.

My children might even change the Number Order

I'll make sure they don't. They will be under War and Mercy. That is fair, they were first.

There also must be Some Light Court in High Places for the balance

Why do I do this to myself Why am I stalling

Why did I come down here Is this *fear*.

I 'hahed' to smell my breath that *was* fear.

That's impossibly rare.

I do want this Since before I received my promised mate I have wanted to make a child

And with Harmony the way she is, I could totally make little godlings easily but then do I want them to age like that? A million years to become a one year old but the slower you're raised the more you learn The more skilled you can become if you have the talent.

Or do I do what father did to Birrai'shivaal age him with the sun a few hundred years

And let them inherit mortal hesitation and weakness.

But compassion too

"I figured you were down here uncle." Said Grace. Of all Bryson's children, I liked that one the most. She was sweet, and sensitive like Eclipse, but no one knows that about her, not even herself.

"I am Three little one What I do makes waves."

"Then make some." She said handing me a mortal beer. It was her offering, and I took it. "Can I watch?"

"Hold still while I get Harmony I'll only do this if she wants." I mumbled.

I don't know why I hoped she said she wasn't ready yet I hoped Grace didn't see my excitedly shaking hands

Before Before Bryson, or even Asanguis's ascension, there was me Just me. I said I wouldn't allow myself to become attached, and here I was. I scoffed at myself. I even subconsciously teleported *outside* the house, and unlock the door.

"Why's the group chat blowing up?" She asked a little confused.

" I kind of put my foot in my mouth" I sat in my recliner I let her sit in my lap.

She put her soft hands on my face. "you're burning up." She said kissing my forehead. "Your crown's fire is almost to the ceiling.

"It is? Oh right. Do you want kids?" I asked and she looked shocked.

"Right now?"

"Right now."

". Why not?" she smiled. She hugged my neck. "Let's have a pair of triplets I think it's a good idea that they aren't alone. Plus they can be in matching outfits."
