Haku and I departed and left the five princesses to continue with their endeavour. I didn't even bother to visit Zariel. He was within the scope of my senses and he knew I had already woken up from my slumber. All Starlight Angels and I are connected through a small strand of Sun Energy which is a racial trait they emit thanks to me.
They can communicate with me and feel my intentions even before I tell them anything.
When they said I am their God, they meant it.
My plans for him were to continue supporting the girls and to be ready for any eventuality, something deep within me told to not underestimate the Slane Theocracy, maybe it was a fear that rose from the time we destroyed Nazarick, Rubedo had been an unexpected surprise that put me into an alert.
I didn't want that to happen a second time, so whatever secret cards Black Scripture had, I wanted to be ready for them.
...
We decided to travel to the south by flight and to do so we'd have to cross the capital of the Sloane Theocracy, Silkuntecks.
As Haku and I are, we travelled and bantered along the way while discussing our plans when all of the sudden...
*BOOOOMMM!!!*
I felt a magic sequence that was concealed activate and engulf us in a massive explosion of black flames that took over the skies.
"Hmn..?" I mumbled, confused at what just happened as the black flames struggled and tried fruitlessly to burn my body.
Haku absorbed the explosion with her darkness and frowned, what surprised me was not the event of the explosion per se as I could imagine that was one of the Sloane Theocracy's army countermeasures against the 'invasion' we scheduled.
What surprised me was that the explosion was no pussy explosion in the slightest; whoever laid down that array was very powerful.
Except for Haku and me, no one in the assault team would have been unscathed from that explosion. The five princesses, even Anna, would have been seriously injured from it just like Zariel and the rest of the Starlight Angels.
'My senses weren't wrong...'
That would have been able to at least bruise me in the past. This was a problem, now we had to deal with a mysterious person that was capable of dealing this much damage.
"It was a trap array, master… they must have assumed we would travel through their territory by sky and laid it down", Haku said what I had been thinking.
"Correct~ more specifically… I did~" We heard a melodious and juvenile voice, a portal of darkness opened in front of us and from it walked a petite gothic girl.
I frowned, just her energy readings alone were powerful enough to meet that claim; she had humongous mana to spare.
Haku looked at her with interest; just like her, this girl had white and black hair.
While Haku had long black hair with white strands; this girl had half of her short hair in white while the other half was black.
"You are…?" I asked, Haku stood in front of me protectively, I couldn't help but smirk.
"My name is Zesshi Zetsumei from Black Scripture… I have come to kill you, Osiris".
The girl giggled and sat on her scythe and used it like it was some flying broom of a witch, she was cute yet sinister.
"You sound very confident" I tilted my brows, "Didn't you see that explosion just now, did nothing to me?".
I was genuinely baffled. I thought I wasn't going to be able to find the person that was going to make trouble for us as quickly... turns out she just showed up just like that. If this is not a blessing, I don't know what is.
"Your servant bore the majority of the brunt just now. If she has to step in to protect you even now. You can't be a big thing, can you?~" This girl giggled once more as if she had the righteousness in the world.
I was being blatantly disrespected as the Sun God here, Haku and I looked at each other one time...
*PFT!*
"Don't laugh, Kuu-chan! Because you're over protective, now people think I'm a pussy!".
"P-Pft! HAHAHAHAHA!!!"
"..."
This woman just laughed and laughed and laughed, I had the urge to pinch her fat ass, not slap it, pinch it.
As if that wasn't enough, the assailant began laughing as well in tone with Hasshaku-sama's mockery.
"Are you for real?".
"Hehehe, it has been a while since someone made me laugh like this. Good job, missy~ I'm sorry, master. Please let me deal with her accordingly, you just need to punish me later~"
Haku took a step forward and the whole world collapsed.
*RUMBLE!!*
Brutal power was displayed, it left Zesshi baffled as even I opened my eyes widely. To be fair, I know I make my girls stronger with my massages, I can feel their ridiculous energy, but I haven't seen exactly how strong they are in actual combat.
Haku's aura once released, scared me. It scared me to think I have been making such monsters so casually.
Her aura was so fucking strong that the buildings beneath began to crack as everyone in the vicinity got fiercely pulled into the ground as they passed out.
This wasn't gravity control... her aura just made the whole atmosphere at least ten times more dense as a byproduct, it was unintentional!
"I'll go to Kurumi".
"Please do, master... I'll catch up after I have played enough with her~"
"Wait, Osiris!"
*BOOOMM!!*
Forget about a slap, Haku only waved her hand to the air and this Zesshi received a slap that blasted her towards the nearest building at the bottom… shattering it and everyone inside, leaving a huge crater of debris and a cloud of dust.
Darkness? Sun Energy? That was Haku's raw strength.
What monster have I created?
**

A being fated to be the strongest, Zesshi Zetsumei spent her life trying to find an equal, somebody who could match her strength.
Never did she expect she would not only find someone who could match that overwhelming strength and innate talents she was born with, but also... someone capable of rendering her totally helpless.
"Ugh!" She felt her hair get pulled out of the debris without any kindness and came face to face with a true youkai, a spiritual being born out of the evil feelings of humanity.
And that being showed her real self, gone was the busty milf that could make men die with just a stare. Her skin pale as sheets, eyes as black as the abyss and a deformed face that one could only see in nightmares.
"Popopo~ Hello, I am an otherworlder, my original name is Hasshaku-sama but my beloved master and lover has bestowed upon me the honour of calling myself Haku Lux. The same master who pulled me out of a life of misery and brought to me the pleasure personified".
She stuck her tongue out, licking all the way from the neck to the chin to the cheeks and finally, those elongated ears.
"U-Ugh!"
Zesshi contorted when the place where that tongue had licked began to itch and get corroded. She prepared several arrays as a countermeasure, arrays of darkness.
"And you dared to insult that man before me? Zesshi-chan... if that is not to look for death, what is?~".
