Deus: We are all Lords

"Eh?!" She exclaimed as the full creature was revealed

Everything below its torso was covered an extra pair of wings… no, it was better to say that there was no lower half, it was just another pair of wings that acted as its legs and another pair that acted as some sort of skirt to cover the first set. Looking on in shock, She couldn't believe her eyes and at the same time, couldn't understand why the system seemed to be so against her.

"At this point, it's clear that you're just against me" She complained but still quickly recovered as she assessed the newly born Seraphim

...

"It seems my Luck is still fully functioning" Stephanie said with a smile seeing that the Seraphim were even stronger than the Cherubim... well at least it was stronger than the Level 1 counterpart of the Cherubim.

The bad news though was that just like the Cherubim, she couldn't feel any form of individuality from the Seraphim as well. It felt as though the system wanted her to just deal with a bunch of robots forever. Deciding not to think about it too much, she gathered the newly summoned Cherubim and sent them to Kingsley. She had no reason to send the Seraphim, they were her upgraded troops and had the potential to be even stronger than the cherubim.

*Boom*

A soft explosive sound was heard a set of 9 Automatons appeared before her almost instantaneously, it was clear that Kingsley had been waiting for her. Confirming that the Automatons were on par with the one, she had received earlier, she immediately pulled up her chat function

[Hey, thanks though, you have no idea how much you have improved my survivability] Stephanie said sincerely

[You had S-rank troops before this, this can just be seen as an upgrade, you would survive even if you were placed in a dragon's den with your regular troops]

[I'm not too sure about that but how do i turn them on, they've been standing there completely still for a long time]

[Just pick one of them and inject your mana into it and the rest will automatically awaken]

[Thanks] She replied before going offline to turn them on

She mustered her mana to the best of her ability and placed her hand on the Automaton's chest since that was the best she could do with her height. As one would expect from a beginner, she spent a few seconds figuring how to transfer her mana to the automaton but she eventually did it.

"Registering Mana Signature… Administrator identified" A robotic voice came out of the automaton as the sound of something powering up could be heard

This short event gave her goosebumps all over her body for some reason, this wasn't what she was expecting when she activated the Automaton. It made her feel like some bad ass hero in some sci-fi movie, the Automatons finally powered up as the sound died down only to be replaced by complete silence, there was no extra sound coming from the automaton in front of her that proved that it was a magical machine.

"My Lady!" The Automaton greeted as it knelt down with its arm across its chest and looking around, she found the other Automatons doing the same

"Oh my god... oh my god!" She shouted in excitement as she jumped up and down the area before trying to calm herself down

She couldn't help herself after all no woman or girl would be upset at being called 'My lady' in such a manner. The Automatons were perfect, they also seemed to have individuality which was something she needed desperately in her territory. The Angels both Cherubim and Seraphim didn't have any of that meaning they relied entirely on her command which also meant that if she messes up one day then she is doomed.

"You can stand" she said in a tone, she thought was dignified enough to be recognized as noble

With her command, the Automatons stood up from the ground and immediately arranged themselves around her. Protecting her from the current non-existent enemies. Seeing that they wouldn't do anything else unless she said so, she began walking towards her castle where the Automatons began to leave her side one by one to guard several locations in the castle. Their autonomous behaviour stunned her but she must behave herself so she pretended as though she expected it.

By the time, she returned to her throne room, only one of the Automatons was by her side but it was quickly joined by the other Automaton she had initially received. The two followed her to the throne and as she sat, they stood guard just a meter away from the throne like knights.

"Ah, this is living" She thought as a smile formed her face.

While she enjoyed her moment of being treated like a queen, Kingsley on the other hand was now standing in front of 10 demonic looking angels. He didn't even understand why such a creature would exist. It made a little sense as to why it existed in the bible but here there was no explanation. Was it the standard appearance of a lower-level angel in this realm or was it just the creation of the System.

...

You have gained 9 more Cherubim from the lord [Stephanie], they are now under your control

Loyalty: 3

...

"That makes sense" Kingsley thought to himself but still ignored it since he still planned to evolve the angels.

Opening his Chats, Kingsley began trading with all the lords that were available and those that he found their troops interesting. Hours past as several golden lights appeared and disappeared from the small clearing, the Demon Goblins who were standing guard tried their best to remain stoic but it was clear that they were confused as to what their King was doing.

All they knew was that a golden flash would take one of the Automatons, he had created away and soon it would bring some other creature in other to replace it. The process had repeated itself so many times that the remaining automatons could be counted on one finger.

On the wall, the two emperors and Empress could be seen watching as Kingsley received more and more creatures from the other lords in the region. Athena seeing the creatures appear one by one began to wonder what type of monster, she was now serving. With a single glance, she could that this recruitment effort was made in order to fight against the Undead but she felt like this was unnecessary.

"What is he doing?" Athena asked in confusion

"Probably about to add more to the army, do you think your initial arrangement can still hold" Viktor asked

"A few revisions wouldn't hurt" Athena replied

"It's being long since i have last seen one of those, come to think of it, are you guys sure you are okay with him recruiting beings of such elements into the army" Ethan asked as he turned to the two demons beside him

"The common demonic weakness doesn't apply to us, whatever is born from them must have the strength to even consider looking us in the face" Viktor replied sharply

"Alright... if you say so" Ethan said with a shrug as he turned to continue watching his king

Kingsley on the other hand was now finally done with answering the messages, he deemed important. The Clearing was now filled with various holy creatures or creatures of the Light element or some that he had traded for simply because he was interested. there were Elves, Fairies, winged horses, etc everywhere and though Kingsley didn't have any honestly plan for most of them, he wasn't too bothered since all of them could just be made into civilians that would live in his territory.

"First, you ten" Kingsley said turning to the eldritch creatures that were still standing to his side

He snapped his fingers as a red glow appeared on the bodies of the Cherubim that were lined up, their evolution had begun and Kingsley didn't stop there. Most of the creatures given to him were within the B to S-rank range so he needed to upgrade them to get what he needed and so he did as the same red glow appeared on all the newly gained creatures.

"That should do it" Kingsley said as he took a deep breath as though to gather all the energy he had lost

He had spent nearly the entire morning doing nothing but trading for troops he truly didn't need. He was only doing it because he felt guilty about implanting false hope in the various lords. If only he had calmed down, he would have simply created a set of Automatons with the holy attribute but he had foolishly posted such a message on a public space.
