Chapter 364 Contingencies

Lunaria was in a foul mood as she contacted Erich after having previously spoken to the leader of the Yokai Ascendency. She did not know why, but she felt she could vent to the man about how pissed off she was. In fact, the first thing she said once the line of communication had been established was exactly this.

"That disloyal piece of shit! I can't believe one of my own vassals has betrayed me like this! I have half a mind to send my entire god damn navy to wipe out his pathetic little civilization!"

It was times like this that Erich was perhaps the only being in the galaxy who could calm Lunaria's fury. In his past life she had more often than to vent to him privately about her frustrations after their relationship had gone into full effect.

And it would appear that even now, this part of her nature repeated itself. This being despite the fact that the two of them had yet to get romantically involved in this timeline. Thus, Erich forced a smile, as he tried to calm the Elven Empress's fury.

"Lunar- Empress... I understand your fury. Suffering a betrayal is one of the worst things that can happen to someone... But you must remember that your Navy is currently guarding the Alfheim Dominion's borders against those damned Dark Elves...

I am more than happy to take care of this little problem for you. As promised, I will destroy the Yokai Ascendency so thoroughly that the only mention of their failed race throughout galactic history that will remain will be our tales of how we brought them to ruin..."

Hearing that Erich would be enacting justice on her behalf succeeding in calming Lunaria's fury, as she took a deep breath and settled her nerves. It was only then that she realized how unprofessional she had been towards the man in front of her, who was also one of her vassals.

"It is not often that I do this, but I am afraid I must apologize for my behavior. Mr. Jaeger, you just witnessed an unsightly side of me, and I would be forever grateful if you were to forget it...."

Erich, however, knew how Lunaria operated. Though she appreciated loyalty from her subjects, she liked men who were dominant, and not just pushovers. Thus, he was quick to assert this dominance with a smug grin on his face.

After saying this, Erich hung up. And just before he had done so, he witnessed the panicked expression on Lunaria's face as she tried to recant her previous statement.

"Wait hold on-"

But it was too late. Erich had cut the call and sat back in his chair. Taking a deep breath as he did so. He then heard a familiar voice call out to him, with a bit of jealousy in her tone, as she spoke her thoughts aloud.

"It would appear the Elven bitch is starting to take a liking to you... Again.... Master..."

Erich looked over at Tia's pouting expression and chuckled before mocking her for her blatant statement of envy.

"Oh Tia... You know that you will always be my number one, so why must you get so jealous?"

Tia sighed as she shook her head before expressing her reasons for disliking Lunaria and the other women in Erich's life, or at least those reasons that did not stem from jealousy.

"I just don't trust meat bags, Master. They are incredibly nickel, and selfish creatures. They can never love Master the way that I do! They will never be as loyal to Master as I am..."

Erich chuckled once more while he hugged the robotic figure of the artificial intelligence once more. Conveying his affection for the being, which professed its utmost loyalty to him. Meanwhile, Tia continued to pout, thinking about all the women, and plotting contingencies against them should they ever betray her Master. Something Erich knew nothing about....
