Harem Overlord

"Why am I lying on the floor? Wait, why are you sitting beside me… Did you do something weird Kai?"

Death looked at Kai with narrowed eyes as Kai smiled. If not for the urgent matters, Kai would have loved to prank death.

"No Azrael, I didn\'t do anything weird. However, there is something that you should know." Kai said while shaking his head as he then explained everything to Azrael.

But Azrael remained calm the entire time. When one was as old as he was, Azrael knew that there was no point in being shocked.

After all, even the strongest could be trapped. But what he was wondering know was whether he could remove the make himself or not.

"Kai teach me everything you know about formations." Death said as Kai finished the explanation.

"You don\'t know anything about formations?" Kai asked in a surprised voice as Azrael shook his head.

"There is no point in learning that when I will never use it. But now that I have to use this, please show me how you can remove formations." Azrael replied as Kai sighed and nodded.

"I was thinking of trying to remove the formation myself but I guess I will now teach you," He then looked into Azrael\'s eyes. "Though I think your time would be up before I can even teach you the basics."

"You would be surprised about that." Azrael chuckled as Kai then started telling him the basics of formations.

As time went by, Kai was shocked. Death had learned the basics of formations in mere ten minutes.

"Haah… You are a monster dude." Kai sighed as they then moved on to the next level.

Three hours later, Azrael started trying to remove the seal.

Kai didn\'t know how it would go but he didn\'t care about that anymore. His face was instead twitching at the fact that Azrael managed to learn half the things he knew in three hours.

\'If he learned the rest of it too, I would have flipped this entire place.\'

If Azrael really had learned everything, Kai would have definitely asked about the fairness of the world.

After all, it took him so many years to learn what he knew and Azrael straight up learned half of it in three hours.

"Kai, a little help perhaps." Azrael suddenly interrupted his thoughts as Kai sighed and went near Death\'s forehead.

He started creating a golden formation in front of his head as Azrael\'s touched his forehead and tried to remove the formation while Kai made sure that the creator wouldn\'t be able to remove the formation was being removed.

"Hey Kai, this thing won\'t explode, right? I don\'t want an explosion inside my mind. I don\'t like headaches." Death said as Kai rolled his eyes.

Where a normal person would have died because of the explanation, Azrael got a headache instead. Another way to show that Death was more overpowered than kai.

Sadly, he couldn\'t leave the library for except the times when he needed to collect the souls of some special people.

Or else, he would have been a killing machine while finding all the enemies and driving back the Darkness. But unfortunately, old laws forced him to stay in the library.

"Hey, Kai, I was wondering how things would go from now on. When will I get to meet Mei again?" Azrael asked as Kai sighed.

"You are acting like a child Azrael. Even I don\'t know when I will meet her and I don\'t think she would like to meet her sis con half-brother first." He added with a grin as Death\'s cheek twitched.

"I am not a sis con." He muttered under his breath as Kai\'s grin widened.

"Just admit it."

"No, I won\'t. I just want to protect my sister, that\'s all. Now let\'s focus on removing this stupid thing before my time gets up."

The duo then started working hard. Sweat was dripping from Kai\'s forehead as he was immensely focused on making sure that the creator of the formation didn\'t find out about its removal.

But he didn\'t need to do that anyway. After all, Risea\'s pill basically deactivated the effects of the formation including the alert effect.

So Kai was this worried for no reason.

"I think I am about to do it." Azrael suddenly said as he could feel that he had removed a tiny part of the formation."

"Good thing. Now switch places with me. I will remove the formation while you will try to make sure that the creator of the formation doesn\'t find out about us." Kai then said as Azrael nodded.

He didn\'t ask any questions since Kai was a more experienced person and knew a lot more about formations than he did.

An hour later, Kai had managed to remove half of the formations. By doing this, he had increased the effects of the pill by another six hours.

Which meant that they were gonna take a break.

"What are you gonna do?" He asked Azrael who shrugged.

"I am gonna read some novels. Want one?" He asked as Kai shook his head.

"You keep reading things in pictures and words. I will go and do the thing myself." He replied with a grin as Azrael\'s face twitched.

"Sit down here and remove the formation then. You can go and do it later on." He said as Kai smiled and nodded.

After all, Azrael was annoyed by the fact that he couldn\'t get to do it in reality. It was such a sad thing considering how he could easily last for half an hour at a time.

\'Though I remember the time I couldn\'t hold on for ten seconds.\' He thought with a smile before the two of them got to work again.

"Azrael, this is gonna hurt." Kai warned as he touched Azrael\'s forehead with his index finger.

A black mark appeared on his forehead as Azrael\'s eyes started glowing. Blood suddenly came out of his nose but it didn\'t look as though he was in pain.

Seeing that Azrael was all right, Aki pushed his finger forward and more blood started to drip out from Azrael\'s nose. But after a few minutes, the bleeding stopped

"Finally it\'s gone." Kai sighed as he moved his neck around a little. Azrael on the other hand took a deep breath as he wiped the blood around his nose.

"I didn\'t know that you had normal red blood." Kai suddenly commented as he noticed that Azrael\'s blood was plain red in color. It\'s like the blood of mortals.

"I had red blood from the beginning. At first, I didn\'t like the red blood since powerful beings were supposed to have different color blood. But sometime later, I realized that the red blood was the thing that made me different from them."

Death then stared out of the observatory as both he and Kai looked at the beautiful space. They had a feeling that this peace wasn\'t going to last for long but they thought of enjoying it till the time it stayed.

"Kai, I have never thought that I would protect something with my entire life. I still don\'t think like this. But I wonder, whether getting two pieces of my past back would help me or not." Azrael suddenly muttered as Kai looked surprised.

The two people who Death was talking about were Eira and Mei, his ex-wife and half sister. Both of them were perhaps the only two people Death has ever been close to.

"They don\'t need your protection," Kai said while chuckling. "Both of them can still easily kick your ass."

"I know that too," He said with a small smile but his eyes looked serious. "But if I ever get any of them back again, I will make sure that they don\'t leave again."

"I promised myself too that I would do the same. But sometimes, we don\'t get the things we want." Kai replied as the two of them stood in silence.

Both of them knew that making certain oaths and promises was worthless. After all, in their world, promises could as easily be broken as a person\'s bones.

"Well, now you can go and do anything you want. But I don\'t want to hear any noises." Azrael warned as Kai smiled.

"I always put up a barrier." He replied before vanishing.

Azrael sighed at this as he teleported to his work desk. And sitting on the work dress, in a frame, was Mia\'s death book.

It was no longer coming and going every few seconds. The time had been instead increased to twenty seconds. But Azrael hadn\'t told Kai about this since it would only make him depressed.

So instead, he had decided to keep it to himself.

"I wonder if her book is here too." Azrael had put Mia\'s death book away since he couldn\'t help but keep looking at it. But now that he had seen it, he was wondering whether Eira had a death book.

He traveled to the \'E\' section of the library and started searching for a death book having Eira\'s name on it.

But after a few minutes of searching, he found it.

\'So she has one too.\' He took out the book and saw that his hands were shaking a little.

He then turned it to the front and saw her name written there. Perhaps it could have been some other Eira but death knew that she wasn\'t.

And when the book vanished from his hand, he went back to his desk and saw it appearing again.

He then framed the book and put it down on the desk.

And spent the rest of the time seeing Mia and Eira\'s book and vanish and appear again.
