Chapter 12: Chapter 12
Chapter 12
"Well, thanks. Our deal is complete." I said with a smile. Harley's thoughts on the world were unique, what she had was what I called Freedom through Insanity. She was true to herself, although this ended up in her losing some other degree of freedom.
"What? You're just going to use me and then throw me out? I thought you were different." Harley said almost in tears, and to that, I gave her a confused look.
"What do you mean used?" I asked in interest.
"After all the things we have been through... it feels like just a few hours back when you saved me, and now you're throwing me away," Harley said through tears.
"It was a few hours back." I pointed out, but Harley ignored my words, causing me to have to adapt to this as it was giving me a headache. My eyes narrowed seeing that she was in love with me, once I adapted, I was quickly able to bring all the clues together to that conclusion.
I thought for some time, ignoring her words and tears to find the best move to make right
now.
"You can stay... but as something like a housekeeper," I said with a smirk, causing Harley to pause, needing a second to understand my words.
"Yes, I will be your wife!" Harley said with bright eyes.
"You're a weird one, but marriage is something not built for me," I said with a sigh. Harley just grinned, happy with everything she had.

Harley stepped out to go buy some clothing, while I sat back to watch some anime. I was watching a new anime this time, one called Overlord. I put the dragon ball to the side thanks to the fact that the battle between Goku and Frieza was too long, I needed a break. Overlord was an anime that followed the concept of someone playing a game, while the game was shutting down, he remained online and found himself in his in-game avatar in a new world.
I was impressed by the creativity of people out there, it left me ashamed of my lack of creativity. I couldn't help but sigh while looking at the main character butler... I wanted a butler for some reason now.
Boomn/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The door was kicked down, and in came Deathstroke, his one eye burning with hatred. I paused seeing this, and looked back at the screen and back at Deathstroke...
"My Butler," I said with a grin. Deathstroke fit the bill, he was a bad-ass old man who was skilled in just about everything there is. But how would I get such an arrogant and prideful man to willingly be my butler? My eyes glowed, while I scanned for any weaknesses, this caused my power to grow and adapt, pointing toward Deathstroke's weaknesses, which was his family.
"Let's strike a deal... you become my butler, and I shall ensure your family gets to heaven. Even if I can't do that, I shall ensure hell would be something to their liking." I said with a smile, causing Deathstroke rage towards me to disappear.
"Retire from the life of a mercenary, although I will not take the responsibility of taking care of your family, I will gift you with the power to protect them, and if I'm feeling like it, I would also gift them the power to protect themselves," I said while closing the laptop.
"You been a mercenary for how many years, how long has this life chained you? Killing is the life you only know, that's pretty sad." I said softly, making Deathstroke grit his teeth for a moment. But in the end, the guy loved his family too much.
"I shall be your butler," Deathstroke said, and little did I know, this choice would come to save me in the future. I didn't understand just how dangerous this world was. Overpowered I was, but there were higher dimensions out there that held beings capable of destroying and recreating the multiverse an infinite number of times over. Some beings transcended numbers, beings who couldn't be given a power level for even a power level of infinity wouldn't do them justice.

"I'm back... hubby!" Harley came running inside the house while dropping the clothing she stole to the ground. She was scared seeing the door which was kicked down, but she paused when she entered the place and saw me just sitting back, a Butler standing to the side of me wearing a nice expensive suit.
The Butler had an eye patch over his right eye, as well as a nice white beard. She felt like she had seen this guy before, and that was even more so when this guy almost moved to attack her.
"... you replaced me already?" She said feeling betrayed, I ignored her while pointing towards my new butler.
"This is my butler, Slade Wilson... Also, I want to start collecting rare stuff from across the universe." I said lightly, looking at the many possible mansions I could buy. I never knew there were so many mansions out there.
"... I can be your maid, I will be far better than him." Harley not wanting to be thrown away said quickly. I blinked for a moment, thinking of Maid Harley Quinn waking me up... I paused for some time, before nodding in agreement.
***
And that's how I got myself a maid and a butler. It took a few days, but I soon moved out and into a mansion located on a hill in Gotham. It was a huge place, I of course destroyed the place and rebuilt it to my liking. Yes, I could create stuff using magic. Be it with magic, or with the skills I was picking up from Dragon Ball, creation was stuff I could easily do. So, I created a super mega-mansion. With a huge underground basement. Since the whole hill was mine, the basement went down to level ground.
I don't know why I came up with the idea of collecting treasures, but if I have a butler, it felt only right to have a sea of treasures for the butler to clean up... right?
But I needed to find something cool, a cool new piece of treasure that would stand out amongst everything else. Just while I was lost in thought about that, Harley who was in a maid uniform suddenly called out.
"They are getting their butts kicked!" Harley laughed causing me to look at the news she was watching, and there I saw the scene of all of the Justice League members fighting a robot that was copying their powers.
"Well, that would do," I said with a smile. That robot was perfect, I wasted no time in putting two fingers to my forehead, and before Harley could ask any question, I teleported next to the robot, stunning the Justice League members.
With a wave of my hand, the Justice League members were sent flying away, all while I grabbed the robot that was trying to copy me. Even if it could copy me, it wouldn't be able to show off the full might of my powers. Where would it draw the energy to do such a task? There was a limit to what it could do, it couldn't even copy the full might of the Justice League, and yes most of them held back for some reason.
With another wave of my hand, green ropes appeared, wrapping up the robot. The robot tried to use the Martian Manhunter's power to phase through and escape, but that was pointless, the robot couldn't even reshape itself to escape.
Picking up the robot, I put it on my shoulder, and with a prideful smile as if I went fishing and caught a large fish, I floated into the air, before disappearing.

"It looks bigger than yours," Flash said, causing Batman to glare at him. Flash instantly shut his mouth, joining the rest of the Justice League members in looking at the mansion that
belonged to Broly.
"It's like a castle... wasn't this place under the control of some criminal organization?" Superman asked
"Yes, Deathstroke convinced them to hand over the place to Broly... Broly seems to have the power to create this." Batman said while looking at the huge gates that opened, allowing them to enter. With that, they walked towards the entrance of the Gate, which was a bit far. The whole hill was surrounded by a forest with only one road in and out. They had to walk past a forest, then a garden which came with a river. The place was beautiful, the only thing missing being animals.
"What do you think about my place, I'm thinking of getting a pet cheetah, that is my favorite animal... or maybe a leopard... there is also a jaguar." Broly who was relaxing in a beach chair said getting lost in what animal was his favorite.
"..." Batman's eyes narrowed looking at Harley Quinn who was sunbathing, Harley waved at him with a happy smile, causing Batman to look at Slade who was also relaxing with Broly, drinking some expensive-looking wine.
"I came to get Amazo," Batman said to which Broly raised an eyebrow. "Amazo!" Broly called out, and with that a robot walked out, dressed in a suit. In its hands
was a tray of cups, before the Justice League twitching lips, Amazo walked to Broly's side and lowered the tray for Broly to get a drink.
"Amazo would be staying with us," Slade said with a smirk. Honestly, at first, being Broly Butler felt humiliating, but upon realizing how everyone from the government down to the criminal world was scared shitless of Broly, he realized just how much power he held. Broly also gifted him Ki, allowing Slade to save his family when Lex Luthor was about to lash out at them for his failure. Now, although most of his family refused to follow him, some of
them were here.
"I reprogrammed the thing... more like, I adapted to have a countermeasure against it, allowing me to gain a unique power that could allow me to hack tech," Broly said enjoying his
drink.
