"So, on to our first action of the day, other than giving you guys codenames, The Tarnished Court's debut-" Before I could finish my words I was promptly interrupted by Kyoka.
"WHY DID YOU CALL HIMIKO 'MI AMOR'?!?!" Huh, looks like she finally digested that information, welp, looks like I'll have to deal with this before I can make the debut of the court possible.
"Isn't it obvious, Kyo? Himiko, here is my girlfriend, she has been since we were little." It's best to just rip off the band-aid now, 'cause if I tried lying or acting like it's some misunderstanding, then I'd be no better than those weak ass harem protagonist.
"I- but, I thought I had a chance..." Oh, maybe I shouldn't have been that blunt about it, because Kyoka.exe has just stopped working. The rest of the girls also have similar looks to the information that I've just given. Dammit, I hate seeing them look so hopeless, even if I was the cause of their current feelings.
Himiko got off of my lap, I got up from the small throne that I was seated on, and walked over to the girls. When the hell did I turn MHA into the start of a harem anime, instead of a shōnen?
"Damn, Boss, didn't think you were a womanizer!" Shut the ever loving fuck up Dabi, I don't go after every attractive woman, I only go after those that I genuinely want to love!
"Dabi, I did not intend to lead on anyone. And, it's not like I don't have any interest in them in that sense." Oh, wait now I hear it, well fuck I might actually be a god in training, and a womanizer in training. Next thing you know girls that I haven't even met will be falling in love with me too.
{So... she is interested in us? THEN WE HAVE A CHANCE!!} x2
Those were Toru's and Mei's thoughts, looks like they don't care if I'm with someone as long as they know they have a chance with me in the first place.
I was going to say something, but before I could the Pinkette, and the once invisible girl tackle hugged me to the ground. Nowadays, something like that wouldn't easily knock me down, but I didn't expect them to suddenly tackle me.
"Umm, can you two tell me why you decided to tackle me to the ground?" Huh, their eyes have a crazy look in them that makes me think they want to eat me alive, neat.
"I don't care if I'm the second, third, fourth, or hundredth girl, I just want to be with you, darling!" Damn, Toru, you are giving Yuno Gasai vibes! And, I don't know if it's the chaos that's happened today, or my growing hunger because I haven't drunk blood today, but that is doing it for me!!
"You're the perfect person to make babies with, so I don't care what I need to do, I will be with you, even if you want me to kill someone to earn your love!" Well fuck, Hephaestus, your descendant is a damn good yandere, though I guess it makes sense since she's related to the guy who was terrified of his love being unfaithful.
I don't know if it was the words of the two girls currently laying on my chest, or the fact that I'm currently smiling like I just smoked the best drugs possible at what these two said, but it seems Kyoka, and Tsu have finally come back to the land of the living.
"I-I don't care either if Himiko beat me to be your first girlfriend, I still want to be with the girl that makes me feel like I'm the most important thing in the world!" Hm, I guess me taking a lot of time out of my schedule to practice, and play music with Kyoka worked in my favor.
"Eve, you're one of the kindest, and most caring people that I have ever met. When you help babysit my siblings you look at them as if they were your own family, and that you would be willing to burn the world to see them happy! So, I want to be with you too!" Holy shit, I did not expect to get complimented so much in just one afternoon.
Now that I think about it, since you guys haven't watched everything that I've done around them, you haven't seen how I've acted around them as we all grew up. Hell, you may even think that their reactions are completely unreasonable in this situation, but it really isn't, after all I know how to play the long game.
In times when they tried to find love with people, that weren't related to me in any way, I would comfort them when those relationships eventually fell through, or when they were rejected. I slowly made these two believe that no matter what, no matter for how long, I will always be there to comfort, support, and cherish them until they tell me they're fine.
Combined with Aphrodite's Blessing, it was easy to plant the seeds of love, it just needed something to get the seed to sprout. For Kyoka, it was me constantly coming to play music with her no matter the day, or time, and for Tsu, it was me helping her babysit her siblings whenever she needed help.
"Oh my! So many girls want to be with my Eevee!" Why does she still insist on using that nickname? Anyway, the four girls looked over to Himiko, who made her presence known again, the two on me looked like they were ready to fight her, while the other two looked anxiously at her.
"Now, what to do about this?" Himiko, don't act like you didn't want for this to happen, hell you were the second person to even suggest the idea of having a harem to me.
"Amor, don't act like you didn't want them to love me just as much as you do!" The girls looked shocked/confused about my words. I guess they didn't expect that the girl I love would actually want me to have a harem.
"Boo, Eevee, I wanted to tease them more!" I don't know if that's sadistic, or if that's a normal thing, 'cause normal constantly gets thrown out the window and shot at till its own mother can't recognize it, when it comes to whatever the hell we do.
"I know, mi amor, but we still need to get to business. We can't keep delaying our court's debut." I may be eager as hell to get these girls as mine, but we still have things that need to be done today, and if I don't get them done today I'll forget to do it for another month!
"Fine... But, I still want to properly give them a sisterly welcome to the family later!" Aka, she's going to talk to them about me, and also tell them about how we'll have to go to different worlds in the future.
"Okay, mi amor. Now, can you two please get off of me, not that I don't love feeling your chest on mine, but I still need to do something." Mei, and Toru, unwillingly, get off of me, I guess they enjoyed being on my chest.
I got off of the ground, and looked towards the girls, it's probably best that I accept their feelings now as to avoid them wondering how I feel about their confessions.
"I want you four to know, that I do genuinely love you, and I am willing to destroy this entire world just to see you all smile. And, that's exactly one of the reasons why I started this, I want to make a world where the people I care about can be happy and safe, without having to worry about any threats." As I finished my words to them, I walked back over to my small throne, while I used Technopathy to make every single screened device in the world broadcast the same image, a red king piece from a game of chess.
Everyone looked at the monitor in the room curiously, except for the four girls I was talking to, who instead looking at my back longingly. It's time for the world to know about The Tarnished Court, and they will know that we will bring actual change to this world.
After a minute the image on the screens changed to that of my main Bee, Maki, after all she will be The King in Red in my place. "Hello everyone, I am The King in Red, but you may just refer to me as Red. Now you may be wondering, 'Why is this woman suddenly showing on all our devices, and what does she want?'. well it's rather simple! I want to destroy this sorry thing that we call a world, and create a better world in its place..."
Across the world people felt a chill go down their spines, as it felt like Red (Maki) was looking through each of their souls. Those that were aligned with the heroes were worried, and some governments were trying to figure out where this message was broadcasting from.
But, those that wanted change in this world, and those that hated this world more than anything, looked at their devices with interest, wondering how this woman would actually change this world.
And, those that were newly added to my court looked at me curiously, wondering who this person was that was claiming to be me, but I silently answered their questions by bringing Maki to my side, where she quickly kneeled before me, as if she were greeting her king (which she was).
"My organization, called The Tarnished Court, has already started this process, by getting rid of a certain thorn in the world for all those that they have affected." As she uttered those words the emblem of Humarise popped up by her head.
Many people across the world were wondering what The Tarnished Court had done to the terrorist-cult organization that has been evading the law since they came to being several years ago.
"So, today you all will see how we have saved this world from a major threat, as it turns out they were planning on releasing a drug across the world that would have killed every person that had a quirk. And, we even took down, this group that governments and heroes alike haven't managed to stop, in just one day."
The people questioned how a new group, to their points of view, managed to rid the world of an organization that the governments and heroes weren't able to get rid of in years in just a single day. While others were curious about what type of drug could have killed every quirk user on the planet.
"Now, enjoy the show everyone, because I assure you, you will be on the edge of your seats the entire time." As Maki said that the screens changed to the start of a video, it was of the day that we killed those cultists, and I gained some souls that I put in Inventory to eat today.
