"...A castle. I need an Overlord's castle!" [video]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

[The video feed of the scroll displays... a castle. An ancient, crumbling castle surrounded by forest, yet with enough stability left that much of it still stands tall and proud.]

Okay, two questions. First, why is there a sweet if poorly-maintained castle in the middle of this forest, and second, mine now! Hyaaa ha ha ha ha!

Conquer it, turn it into a Netherworld. Nothing special, but it'll get the job done.

[Getting Zetta to keep talking, particularly about himself... really isn't a feat. At all.]

[firstofthefallen]

[No. She didn't figure it was. Still, it's nice to know her assumption on him was correct.]

To turn this place into a Netherworld...interesting.

And yet I would find it hard, unless you yourself can still feel the pull of the Makai world at all.

[Or the Labyrinth of Amala. Though, in her world, they were the same thing.]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Hmph, not at all. It's just a matter of overwhelming it with mana power so that its very essence is altered. Easy if you've got enough mana power, and I've got more than anyone in the cosmos.

[firstofthefallen]

So you'll brute force it until it works.

That's logical, I suppose.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Sure... I guess. That's how it's done. It's not like there's just a giant switch to flip.

[firstofthefallen]

It depends.

In some worlds, there migh as well be.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Hmm. Good point, but I'm pretty sure this isn't one of them.

[firstofthefallen]

I suppose not.

Why bother to rule this place?

[badassfreakingoverlord]

The power, of course. Once I turn this world into a Netherworld, the mana power will be well worth the cost.

[firstofthefallen]

I suppose.

Need for power has never been a concern for me.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Content with where you are, huh? That's fine for most people, but not for me.

[firstofthefallen]

[That, and demons, gods, and angels don't have the potential for personal growth in her world(s). Only mankind alone can grow and become stronger.]

Mmm.

Regardless, I wish you luck on your endeavors. I'm sure they'll be amusing.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

If you have the right mindset for it, they'll be a laugh riot!

[That... probably wasn't the right way to take 'amusing'.]

[firstofthefallen]

[It wasn't necessarily the best way, but it was one of the ways Lucifer was thinking.]

I have no doubt.

To see someone with your ambition is pleasant. Do make sure your performance isn't boring, now.

[badassfreakingoverlord]

Hyaaa ha ha ha ha! What an unnecessary statement! A clash for control of a world is never boring, not on a power scale of this level!
