Immediately after the fainting Miss Von Berner took her charge back to her room, leaving Belial with Morrigan and the unconscious servants, finally getting Morrigan to sleep.

"Lucien, Mudo, come."

Belial ordered at the newly awakened servants, who accompanied the Dark Lord back to his study.

"Excuse me, Master. How could you manage to calm Mistress Morrigan?”

Lucien asked as he looked at Belial, who only answered gently.

"It's been months, Lucien. I have spent much more time than you could think with her, so this has already happened several times and I have managed the situation properly."

Which shocked the servants, since they were sure that Morrigan had only done her "tantrums" with them, that's why Lucien asked a little more aggressively than expected.

"Several times!? How many times has this happened, Master!?"

"Excuse me, Master, but I think we have other issues to attend to."

Mudo said before Belial could respond to Lucien, and, at that precise moment, a fourth voice chimed in.

"Certainly, so I hope it does not bother you that I accompany you, Right, Master Belial?"

And from the shadows Miss Von Berner appeared, taking the place next to Lucien to walk beside the Dark Lord and his servants.

"I am aware of it Mudo, and of course not, Miss Von Berner, I am extremely interested in your report about our little Diamond."

Belial replied as Mudo continued.

"Mistress Morrigan... her power is completely different from anything I've seen."

"Agreed, she is extremely powerful, for a second I feared I would die."

Corroborated Miss Von Berner, recalling the treatment of the Heiress earlier, to which Belial only replied.

"I have investigated the matter, and apparently her power is enough to rival that of any S-Class Demon in Makai, even myself."

This caused a smile on the features of Miss Von Berner different from the looks of shock from Lucien and Mudo, so she said.

"That's why I advised you to leave the dealing of that upstart Maximoff in the hands of the Shapeshifters Clan."

Meanwhile, Lucien, who had been thoughtful, only heard the response of his master.

"That you did, Dorothea Von Berner, Leader of the Succubus of the House of Aensland but tell me... Do you think that both Maximoff or the Shapeshifters would have accepted that? We both know how... difficult... the Queen of the Shapeshifters can be."

"I'm so sorry, Master if I knew this was going to happen. We would never have accepted that woman."

Lucien said in an effort to return to the topic at hand while Miss Von Berner made a sour face, as she remembered her own dealings with said Queen.

"On the contrary Lucien, What impresses me most is that she managed to reach Makai, I knew she was special, that's why I courted her back in the Human World, but I never imagined that she could reach me only with her will. Morrigan will be a powerful addition to the Aensland Clan. However..."

And Belial stopped, thinking carefully as his servants watched him, to the point that Lucien tried to get his attention.

"If left unchecked, Morrigan has the potential to destroy not only our world but everything else in her path, including herself."

"I agree. She is too dangerous for her age."

Said Mudo, looking at the other three, while Lucien responded.

"What do you propose that we do, Lord Belial?"

At this Belial only looked at them before saying.

"Anyways, how Is the situation with Diamond, Miss Von Berner?"

"Still unchanged, I'm afraid that Miss Diamond is aging extremely fast, at the rate she's going she'll die at the age when any Aensland succubus could be considered a teenager."

"Then what do you recommend, do you still believe that the best solution is the one you proposed?"

Belial replied, to the astonishment of Lucien and Mudo, who were even more surprised to hear the answer of the succubus before them.

"That's right, Master, it is necessary to merge the soul of a succubus to that of the young lady, and I would prefer it to be mine if you would."

To say that Lucien and Mudo were in shock would be an understatement, considering that, alongside Belial and the Queen of the shapeshifters, Miss Von Berner was one of the strongest in the lands controlled by the Aensland, and seeing that she basically wished to die was something unthinkable, then, to hear the head of the Clan Aensland sigh was an even bigger surprise.

"Lucien, Mudo, I already have a plan to solve the problem of Morrigan, but for it to work Diamond is necessary so..."

"Diamond. We need to talk."

Belial said while Diamond Tiara was sitting on his legs, watching the Dark Lord with childish curiosity while Miss Von Berner was present, drawing the attention of both Dark Lord and Princess.

"What is the maid doing here? Doesn’t she know that my time with you is sacred, Daddy?"

"Certainly Miss, however, there are things we should discuss, and Master Belial believes that it is necessary that I be at this moment."

Miss Von Berner said, ignoring the furious look of the little demon pony, who turned her eyes to Belial when he started to talk.

"Tell me, Diamond, don't you think you are aging too fast? I wonder because in these years I have seen the beautiful baby that fell from the sky become a sweet girl, unfortunately, you have done it very fast, or you are not surprised that the other girls you know are still practically babies?"

Then Diamond just looked at him, remembering how Miss Von Berner had taken to her different girls from time to time, but the relationships did not last. the girls still needed other care, remembered how the first in learning to speak, to walk, and how the "friends" kept looking the same despite the passage of time, so she saw Belial again, worry in her eyes as she murmured "Spoon".

"The truth Miss is that you seem to get old very fast, this... sickness... will make you die relatively young... it is possible that even Master Belial dies long after you."

This caused that Diamond looked horrified to her "maid", turning her eyes to Belial moments later, seeing in the eyes of her beloved daddy that the servant was telling the truth, then she said.

"Daddy, then I'm going to die soon?”

"Shhhhh, no, no, my princess, but if it takes a long time to treat your illness then the cure may not work."

This made Diamond begin to sniffle a bit, after all, she had been told not only that she was sick, but that illness could make her die long before her beloved daddy.

"And... and what is the cure...?"

Diamond said in a whisper as her eyes shone with unshed tears.

"We want to merge the soul from a succubus to yours, Miss."

Said Miss Von Berner, which only confused Diamond, since that was something that, according to the servant, was something only the Dohma could do, even though Diamond was more surprised to hear Belial say.

"Miss Von Berner has offered her soul to unite it to yours."

Then Diamond saw the maid horrified, saying in a voice almost hysterical.

"But she is my maid! the one you gave me when you could not keep prolonging your return to work. Who is going to keep me company now?"

"You have Morrigan now, and Lucien and Mudo take care of you both."

Said Belial, looking at Diamond while Miss Von Berner said.

"I don't know if you remember, Miss, but I promised to your father to make you an appropriate Aensland succubus, it is my desire that, in order to become that, you accept my soul, given freely."

"NO! You are my maid, to use you whenever I want and for as long as I want, and I want to have you for the rest of my days..."

Diamond said annoyed, looking at the arrogant maid angrily who presumed to want to know better than she what she should do, to which Miss Von Berner said only.

"But I'm not Silver Spoon, Miss."

Hearing the name she only heard in her dreams, Diamond looked at the servant in shock. How did she know that name, and how did she dare to use it against her? Then the shock turned to fury as Miss Von Berner continued.

"You have made the last years of this succubus an immense joy, and I am sure there is nothing more I can teach you, at least in this way, if you decide to let me become part of you I will teach you more things, at least until I become completely yours, please, Mistress Diamond, allow me the grace to make you a true Aensland succubus, and let me see, through your eyes the wonderful world that engendered a superior being like you. Your Father gave you my mind and body, I am now offering my soul, please allow this old succubus one last gift."

"And now what Diamond? Will you reject the Love and Friendship of Miss Von Berner, for whom you are the Sun and the Moon...? Or will you allow her to give you the last gift she can?"

At this Diamond looked at the adults before her, she was confused about the way Daddy had worded his appeal had made feel a longing in her soul and, imperceptibly for her, a wave of magic covered her before she could say.

"Damn you, you shameless maid! What am I going to do when you leave? I doubt that the intruder would want to be my sister, let alone share the servants that Daddy gave her! Very well. I see that I can not disappoint someone who has placed me in my rightful place as her superior, maid... no, Dorothea Von Berner, kneel."

Diamond said as she graciously stepped off Belial's lap and said as she watched Miss Von Berner obediently knelt in front of her.

"I'm going to miss you, you damned old crow."

And then she kissed the lips of Miss Von Berner passionately, Belial watching as a rainbow of magic covered both of them for a few moments before disappearing inside them.

"When do you plan to do the fusion ritual of souls, father?"

"The preparations will be ready in a week, Princess."

"Would it bother you if I want to enjoy my maid as much as I can then?"

Diamond asked while Belial smiling, standing as he said.

"Of course not my princess, just try not to break her, we need her intact."

To this Miss Von Berner had the decency to blush as she stood up, straightening her dress as she heard the young Princess say.

"Of course not, daddy, who do you think I am, Morrigan?

"Is everything ready?"

Asked Belial to the old demon that would perform the ritual while looking at the chamber, five magic circles covered in runes and other symbols of power were traced in its center in a straight line, the two furthest from Belial being occupied by Diamond Tiara and Dorothea Von Berner while the three remaining were empty, waiting for their occupants.

"Adtendite ne iustitiam vestram et adiunge te ad filios aeterna Makai duabus animabus. Hie puer tuus patitur facti sunt. Ne desertam donum filiam."^[1]

It was heard when the demon in front of the circle that held Diamond Tiara intoned with an ancient voice as Diamond Tiara and Miss Von Berner floated in their circles, Diamond slept peacefully and Miss Von Berner with her head thrown back as bright white light came out of her eyes and mouth, which, guided by a barrier, connected the two circles and fell to wash over Diamond.

"Yes Master, all we need is the girl."

The old demon answered, watching Belial put Morrigan, who was sleeping, in the center circle, while asking.

"And the vessels?"

To which Belial moved to the circle to the left from where Morrigan rested and extending his right hand created a black portal, then moved to the circle on the right as he said.

"I have prepared a pocket dimension for one of its parts. It is a place that she will not be able to access until she is of age."

At this, the Demon only saw the Dark Lord and told him worried.

"Are you sure you want to be one of the vessels, Master?"

"Don't worry, old friend... it is the least I can do for my heiress."

Upon hearing this answer the demon only opens the book in his hands and observes the Ruler of Makai.

"Very well, everything is in order. I'll start now Master."

To which Belial just nods, and sees how the demon stood in front of the circle holding Morrigan.

"O Mundi. haec conteram meam. Cura futuri princeps vester. unus e tribus... O Mundi. haec conteram meam. Cura futuri princeps vester. unus e tribus"^[2]

In doing this the three circles were illuminated with power as old as Makai himself, the purple light had another effect, Morrigan started to float, the aura in the form of a woman forming moments later while the demon continues with his chant.

"Mmmm... Daddy...?"

"Morrigan."

Belial answered to the woman's call, obviously the supercharged soul of Morrigan, who extended her hand to Belial but was stopped by a barrier that completely covered her.

"Grr...! O Mundi. haec conteram meam. Cura futuri princeps vester. unus e tribus... O Mundi. haec conteram meam. Cura futuri princeps vester. unus e tribus... O Mundi. haec conteram meam. Cura futuri princeps vester. unus e tribus..."

Then Morrigan begins to hit the barrier while screaming, despair beginning to be heard in her voice.

"Daddy...? Daddy, what's going on...? Daddy...!"

"Sorry, my daughter, but Daddy has to do this. I'm sure you'll understand someday."

Meanwhile, Morrigan hit the barrier with more and more force.

"I can’t hear you...! Daddy What's happening...! I'm Afraid Daddy...! Daddy...! Let me out, Daddy...! I want to be with you, Daddy...! I'm so afraid...!"

The demon doing the ritual sweats while Morrigan hits the barrier incessantly, but that doesn’t stop him from making his chants, seeing the woman made of miasma and her master, but willing to fulfill the will of the latter.

"Dad, please, I... Ah...! D... Daddy... I feel weird..."

Belial meanwhile had been fighting against her emotions, hearing her daughter suffer her instincts screaming that they should protect her, but she remained impassive watching Morrigan.

"Daddy, I don't feel well... What...? What’s happening to me, Daddy...?"

Then, as Morrigan kept hitting the barrier Belial saw how cracks formed, to which he put his hand on the barrier covering his circle.

"Morrigan."

This made Morrigan gasp and stop hitting her barrier, calling Belial, whom only reaffirmed his love.

"I love you, Daddy..."

Morrigan said as the Demon shouts his chant, and a bright light fills the chamber, trails of rainbow power running through the light... when the light dispelled only Belial, the two demons acting as priests and two girls remain in the chamber, both girls looking like girls, not babies while Belial looks at the demon in charge of separating the Soul from Morrigan.

"It's done Master, remember that your body now contains a third of the power and soul of Mistress Morrigan, which will be released at the time of your death."

"Very well. Thank you old friend, leave us now."

Belial replied as he bent down to take the girl who was now Morrigan, who sighed happily at being in Belial's arms, moments later Belial picked up the girl who was Diamond Tiara, making sure to have both girls comfortable in her arms.

"This is just for a moment, Morrigan, Diamond, I want both of you to have a normal life, no matter how little it lasts. I want them to be my little girls."

[1] The approximate translation from Latin to English it would be: Eternal Makai join these two souls. Allow this foreigner to become your daughter. Don’t let the gift of your Daughter go to waste.

[2] The division spell’s translation would be: Oh world, break this soul. Heal your future Ruler. Make three from one…!
