Harem Overlord

"Does this mean that when we met for the first time, you were just being nice to me because of your curse?" Kai asked as his brain started forming multiple theories.

"No. For the first few months, our curses were unbearable. Azy lost it and was sealed away which further worsened his condition. As for me and Hela, we left our homes together so that we could protect each other. That's when we met the five young spirits trying to build a shelter for those like them. Despite our curse, we wanted to help them for some reason.

We went and told them that we would become their protectors since Hela was killing anyone pretty easily while I had somehow gained the ability to heal people. But as we lived with them and built the spirit realm, our curses vanished and we became our old selves except we weren't an outcast demon and an angel. We were two girls living together as a family." Aizza said fondly as she remembered her past.

"But that's when they struck again." Kai said angrily as Aizza's face darkened.

"The other five were strong but we far outclassed them. Hela had become so strong that all five of them combined could hardly hit her. We were happy but we were naive. The creators struck again and spoke to the other five about balance. They told them that they created everything and that everything belonged to them.

They told them that they wanted to maintain a balance and that they would take us for a little time to maintain a balance. They hadn't met the creators before and we hadn't told them about the creators so they were easily swayed by them. The creators requested their help in meeting us and..." Aizza's voice trailed off as she couldn't speak ahead. But Kai knew what happened later as he continued the story.

"They called you both to meet them and you instead found the creators waiting for you with smiles. You tried to fight them and escape but it was useless as they sealed you in the very realm that you called home. They separated you so the only person who had been with you for most of your life couldn't see or speak with you.

They then went back to the other five and told them that they had taken care of you and you were now much calmer versions of yourself. But what they had actually done was that they had replaced you with the elemental rulers of dark and light." Kai finished as Aizza nodded.

"We were in agony for many centuries Kai. Centuries. We were trapped in a void of darkness with no one to listen to us. Day by day, our very insides started to shatter and we felt that we would die that way. But then, suddenly we felt someone trying to reverse the formations that created our seal. Who could have guessed that someone like you who was not even a spirit and snuck into the spirit realm just to free two random people who might or might not be dangerous for the rest of the world." Aizza said with a smile as Kai smiled back.

"Guess saving cursed people and kind of become my job. I only used to pay attention to people who were actually cursed and were not faking it." Kai said as Aizza nodded and continued.

"Hela and I first thought that you were actually one of the creators who was bored and trying to toy with us. That is why Hela released her aura at that time. But when we saw you that but weren't them, I used my aura to protect you from Hela's powers. After you freed us and we gave you our blessing, we went back to our own realms that were now being controlled by our duplicates.

The other five rulers git many spirits like them but I and Hela were unique. But that wasn't the case for the elemental ruler of dark and light. Though they barely had twenty spirits in their territory, they still had some that were like them. After you escaped from the elemental rulers and both of them came back, we were surprised to see them.

Instead of being the creators puppets, they had actually become real people and started thinking for themselves. Since they were technically replacing me and Hela, we wanted to be angry at them and use them to release some of our frustration. But for some reason, we couldn't blame them for what happened to us. We left that place and started wandering around trying to figure out what we should do." Aizza explained as Kai nodded.

"They had told me that Mariel and the others had figured it out in minutes that they were not the same people from earlier. They still let them stay on the spirit realm but Mariel and the others were secretly searching for you. But they could find anything and they had to give up after a few centuries." Kai told his side of the story as Aizza smiled.

"That's true I guess. I and Hela then decided to meet Azy to see how he was. We traveled to the demon realm and tried to call him up but nothing happened. But that was expected since he had gone to find a vessel but had unfortunately found nothing. Many things had changed since we were sealed away and both of us didn't know what to do anymore. 

We couldn't even go and meet the other five since we were kind of afraid of not being remembered. In the end, we decided to seek the person who freed us from our suffering and ask him why he did that even though he didn't know us." Aizza finished with a smile as Kai sighed.

"You both showed up at a hotel I was staying in and frightened me while I was eating my breakfast. I still remember how high I had jumped when you had suddenly shown up in front of me." Kai said as he remembered his second encounter with them.

He had been staying in a hotel near an area where people supposedly had seen a girl that could change her age and appearance and killed people to use their blood for a ritual.

Kai had, later on, found out that the girl was actually Risea who was secretly coming up with different disguises to sell pills to powerful cultivators.

While he was staying in the hotel, the lights had gone out but he didn't have any problem since he could see everything because of Aizza's blessing.

But Aizza and Hela had suddenly popped in front of him and he had jumped so high that he had actually touched the ceiling of his fifteen-foot room.

"When we heard that you had simply freed us because of us being cursed or something, we laughed at your answer. That's when we decided to follow you and see what you do daily. It was nice that you tried to help people with curses especially when you met Risea and stayed with her despite her not being cursed though being Nephilim was something bigger and worse than a curse since it is in your blood and it can't be removed.

We actually felt really close to you as me and Hela started debating about how we felt about you. When we knew that you had a harem, we burst out laughing since we had thought you were the good boy instead of being the playful one. Oh, how wrong we were at that time. But even after that, both of us fell in love with you at different times and we once again thought that we had escaped from the clutches of the creators or at least we hoped that it was true. But here we are." Aizza and Kai both sighed at the same time as they thought about their past.

"My point is that even after all that we went through, we still chose to fell in love with someone and that someone was also marked by the creators. The reason Hela decided not to return is because she is afraid that the same thing will repeat again. That is why she gave in to her curse and now lives to kill people." Aizza said as Kai nodded and hugged her misty form.

"I hope that you will reincarnate soon enough. It would be fun to see you reunite with Mariel and the others." Kai said to her as her form started to shimmer.

She smiled at him briefly before she completely disappeared and Kai was left standing alone in his box-like soul.

"Guess I will try to obtain you back." He resolved to break her curse and win her again. He stood there for a few minutes after that as he saw the balance of his soul.

Even after all that happened, he still was in balance. Maybe balance was important sometimes but then there were sometimes when you have to let go of everything and turn into a monster.

And with that, he left his soul to return back to the real world and to also reunite with all of his girls.
