Chapter 4: Family Meeting

As I sleep I interact with the game learning more about the five of the 10 servants I can currently summon, the other five are being prepared and contracts offered out to them. Of the five I have access to now, three of them will be needed for my meeting with Sona and her sister, Rin, Eivor and Morrigan.

Morrigan is a Witch of the Wilds, a renegade mage that accepted the contract and in return, Samuel would wipe her mother from her world and save her son. Samuel just laughed at that apparently and then got to work. She is currently creating potions and has been all night, she has 50 made so far, enough for what I need.

With a pained gurgle, I awake with small amounts of my blood leaking from my mouth, I slowly but steadily make my way towards the bathroom before spitting the liquid into the sink. Looking in the mirror, it is clear to see I'm worse for wear, my skin is slightly peeling around my cheek while my arms and legs feel as if they are burning, the phoenix tears helped but I will need to get used to this pain if I'm to use my sin in the future.

'Game can sins be upgraded?'

<Under specific quests yes, would you like me to generate one for you Sin of Pride?>

'Yes'

<Quest received: I Stand Above All.

Objective 1: Subdue Rias Gremory. Rewards: Minor Sin upgrade.

Objective 2: Subdue the Gremory Family: Minor Sin Upgrade.

Objective 3: Subdue The Satans. Rewards: Major Sin upgrades x2

Objective 4: Subdue the Underworld. Rewards Branching Sin Upgrade.

Objective 5 #: Conquer Japan. Rewards: Title Received, Perk: Under the Stars gained, Sin upgraded to Maximum Level>

Huh, they get substantially harder as they go on, Rias should be easy once she is moved to my mansion in Kuoh, threatening her peerage is an excellent way to control her however subtle control and manipulation would make her serve me willingly, choices, choices.

Pulling myself away from my mirror, I mentally command.

'Summon Servant: Rin Tohsaka and Summon Servant: Evior Varinsson'

As I Command my two servants to appear before me, Rin's eyes go straight down as I appear to have slept naked, Eivor stares into my eyes, good, the last thing I want is him looking.

"Rin, my eyes are up here. Eivor did you make the contracts as I requested?"

The Viking nodded his head as he placed two briefcases down on the edge of the bed, opening them I gave them a glance summarising them.

Contract one offers House Stiri 100 phoenix tears a week for the rest of their existence, ten times the rate they currently get in return for half of their joint territory with the Gremory house in the future. It also ensures that house Pheonix will not intervene in Stiri affairs as long as they don't strongly go against our interests as well as a defensive agreement.

Contract Two offers the Stiri Hospitals access to my new 'Potions' that Morrigan has been creating as well as an increase to the amount of Pheonix tears they will receive. This one will require Sona to play me in an official game of chess and 25% of the territory.

I'm going to leverage the potions and the need to save as many Devils as possible to sway them, into accepting the second contract although Serafall will fight this hard. They can only choose one of the contracts, help their house or help the underworld as a whole, the final test I will offer a Satan before I begin plans to purge them all.

"They look exceptional, you have done well Eivor, your apprentice will be with us in a few days, I want you to train her in the ways of a berserker, she has a draconic sacred gear so she can take whatever damage you need her too."

The Viking nods at me,

"You two can go and get breakfast, I will be with you shortly."

Eivor nods once more, Rin, however, is still zoned out, I walk up to her and I poke her cheek, breaking her from whatever daze she was in, "Please may you leave Miss Tohsaka, I need to get dressed."

She then sprints out of the room faster than her stats would suggest, something is wrong here, I looked her up in the Game index and she is meant to be a rich and mature girl who studied magic arts, her contract with the game is for her to acquire the magic of worlds far beyond her own. Realistically she shouldn't be acting like a shy school girl, is it due to my Charisma stat? It's not that high I think, I mean Devils are naturally more attractive, considering the state of my body, I should have a negative modifier to it as well.

Ah well something to ponder later, business first, pleasure later, putting on a black business suit, I grab the briefcases and walk into the Dining room, my mother and father are sitting at the far side of the table while Rin, Ravel and Eivor are sitting close to the entrance. I smile at the maid as I take my seat next to Eivor and opposite Ravel.

"Father I want full control over the family in every way except name, I want my word to be final on all matters."

The room goes silent before his chair is thrown backwards as he launches himself at me, his demonic power swelling beyond what I can deal with in my weakened state however I won't have to. As he gets close to me, two one-handed axes are thrown with such force I can barely make them out as they lodge themselves into my father's chest.

"Eivor that wasn't needed but thank you for the gesture."

Walking towards my father who is already regenerating, I remove the Axes and stare down at him, "Ravel unleash your full demonic power."

A gasp escapes my mother's mouth as the Ravel has gone from the power of a Low-middle class devil to that of Medium High-Class in one night, I'm not sure how the 15 levels translate into demonic power but the boost she has is insane. In a couple of days, I could breach ultimate class with her although I bet getting through Ultimate will be hell especially if it gets harder to level her as we go.

"Ravel has risen in that much power in a single night training alongside myself and my queen, all of the resources you have spent on her over the years, beaten in a single night. You have done well to get the family this far father but it is time for you to settle down and have fun with Mother while you still can."

My mother goes to speak but I raise my hand silencing her "I have a meeting with the Hier of house Stiri later as well Satan Leviathan, I will be acting as head of the house for that meeting, Dad, I want to say once more, I respect everything you have done for us but the past is the past, retire and enjoy yourself."

I place my arm around my Father's and pull him up, leaning I whisper" I will not let you down, in your room are two tickets to a new hotel and Sauna in Switzerland, Take mother and have a good time."

The Anger in his eyes fades slightly, "Who are these two, your new servants?"

I laugh and say" Consider them the leader of my second Peerage, formed through Soul contracts rather than evil pieces, Eivor and Rin here are the commanders of the group of ten. As you know Rin is an amazing light mage while Eivor is a warrior."

I glance at the slowly filling holes in his chest, "As you know as well."

My father sighs and says" What are you planning son?"

I smile, "I'm going to play a game Dad, winner takes all. It will be fun, either bask in glory or go down in a blaze of it."

My dad turns without saying anything and leaves the room as two maids come in, "Young Lord, the Stiri heiress and her sister are here to see you."

I nod my head, "Lead them to the main meeting room, I will be there shortly, Eivor grab the briefcases it's time to have fun."
