After finishing the report from Diablo about the current state of the Adeptus Custodes, we discussed details about my coronation, which was scheduled to be when the reconstruction of the capital is completed.
It was decided so for several reasons, but mainly now there were more pressing matters than my coronation process, as it was just a formality, as everyone knew where the real power lied in the devil race. There were many things to do, and now everyone had a lot of work, especially in Military Branches; that was needed to be completed as soon as possible due to possible attacks on us from other factions.
It was no secret that Olympians were already looking at our way with hungry gaze, but not due to their power over us, but rather due to the arrogance of Hades and Zeus, especially Hades. He always despised devils as species and wanted to eradicate us one day.
On the coronation, I will be crowned as the Emperor, and Vena, Fia, and Hela would be crowned as the Empresses, even though they had their official titles due to their occupations. While Venelana was not taking part in the government, she took place as General Manager of Umbrella Corporation, the name of my company in the Underworld, which was created several months ago, by fusing all weaponry factories and manufacturers across that Underworld that I owned.
After dispersing the first meeting of the Senatorum Imperialis, everyone went to do their own things. Elders as Zekram and Azrael were attending their duties as temporal Magisters of their respective Magisteriums, while not forgetting to train to become stronger, as Elders were a final bastion of the Baator.
Crom Cruach traveled through the Underworld and negotiated with various independent dragon flocks for them to join the Baator, which would take a lot of time. Fortunately, his strength and the presence of Tiamat, who was his mate, and Tannin considerably sped things up, and maybe within several years, all dragons in the Underworld would join the Baator. Of course, that was only part of the Dragon Race in the Draconic Deus, as countless dragons and many dragon flocks lived in dimensional spaces of other factions, pantheons or pocket dimensions or even Earth.
What was probably the greatest shock for me was the news that all three of my wives got pregnant and that I would be a father. With three children coming on the way, I was probably even more nervous about it than my pregnant wives; they were just happy.
Venelana most vocal one about it, while Grayfia and Hela were more modest and controlled with their emotions. Something I have feared, as I don’t want to imagine dealing with emotionally unstable Hela and Grayfia, as both of them could be hard to handle sometimes, especially Hela. I already can see Necrosword flying at my head for nothing or something.
These three months until the capital was finished really passed fast.
The new Capital of the Baator, Anor Londo, was breathtaking. With its gothic architecture that was implemented in the city, and countless majestic Arcanotech constructs that were built across the entire city was created a glorious and mighty feeling around the whole city.
Today was the day of my coronation I would be crowned as the Emperor of the Baator.
Countless people filled the streets of the Anor Londo as they gathered in front of the Imperial Palace before the Outer Imperial Palace as the Imperial Palace of the Anor Londo was divided basically into two parts.
One was the Outer Palace, which was the size of a smaller city with its enormous gates, bridges, and other constructs. While the Inner Palace, or better known as the Sanctus Imperialis, was divided from the Outer Palace by the Ultimate Gate.
While the Outer Palace was freely accessible by members of the Nobility, Army, and other governmental branches. On the contrary, the Sancus Imperialis was basically a wasteland that only members of the House of Lucifer, Elders, or Senatorum Imperialis could access.
Today was the exception, as the coronation took place in the Throne Room in the Sancus Imperialis. Thousands of people filled the Throne Room, hundreds of thousands in the entire Sancus Imperialis and millions in the Outer Palace, and even more in the whole Anor Londo.
I sat on the enormous Golden Throne that I personally constructed as it acted as an amplifier of my Demonic Energy. By my side was Diablo Noir, Captain-General of Adeptus Custodes, with several Custodians clad in golden armor holding halberds as their weapons of choice.
Then a step below me stood Elders Zekram, Azrael, Crom Cruach, my wives, and other members of the Sentaroum Imperialis. Then in two rows opposite to each other stood Heads of Houses of Baator Nobility, chiefs of Dragon Flocks, and High-Ranking Officers of the Military.
Below them were ordinary nobles and soldiers gathered in thousands; by ordinary, I meant with sufficient social standing to be present in the Sancus Imperialis.
“My brother and sisters. Today, we have gathered here to witness a major leap in our history. Today, many of you who are gathered here, are of various origins and backgrounds. Of different standings and species. For a long time, the supernatural species of Draconic Deus have been divided by our birth, strength, origin, and race. Stagnation and discrimination have become a common reality to us, and the degradation of our glory would be our inevitable end. But, but today it has ended. Today, this day, we have gathered to create a better future of reason, progress, and advancement. No matter of race of Baator, be it a Devil, Dragon or Fallen Angel, or any others that would join us in the future. In front of factions and beings of the Astral Boundary we are nothing, but united we stand for the future and one day, we will take our rightful place in the Universe as the Baator. So from this time, until the end of times, I proclaim the foundation of the Baator, and I crown myself the first Emperor of the Baator to lead our Empire to the ages of unpreceded glory, victory and wealth. To an age, where Baator would be the strongest faction, where there would be no discrimination of supernatural species, where there would be an opportunity and a world of infinite possibilities for everyone, where we would stand at the top of the food chain even in the Astral Boundary and even across many Universes. That I something I swear to achieve on my own very soul.
All Hail Baator!”
I finished my speech with great zeal.
“All Hail Baator! All Hail the Emperor!”
“All Hail Baator! All Hail the Emperor!”
“All Hail Baator! All Hail the Emperor!”
