So, it seemed that you guys don't want to have an Esdeath/Tatsumi shipping especially when she already had Asmodeus. My apologies about that. It was all an attempt to lay the ground work on giving Esdeath some depth on why she is attracted to Tatsumi, namely by his smile. That and I was just following the plot line so that I need to finish the chapter for good.
In any case, I have heard your complaints so I will not have an Esdeath/Tatsumi shipping and instead focus on the harem aspects of my self insert character.
Thought, I would like to point out that I am trying to not make the story come across as a Mary Sue-esque story or any other story that would come across as the author, which is me, showcasing uncontrollable favouritism because right now, I think I made a mess on the story with my lemon and smut, rather than a decent story to follow.
Nonetheless, I am willing to continue just so I would like to have Dr. Stylish to suffer. I have this fun idea on what will happen when Dr. Stylish were to invade the Night Raid headquarters while a Death Elemental is on it.
It would be a terrifying experience for him and his army to encounter Thirteenth's undead horde.
So, let's get right in to the story.

Enjoy.
PS: Also, have you guys watched Skibidi Toilet? Yeah well, a surreal, humorous and kind of strange video aside, it is a pretty awesome video that depicts war to its logical conclusion and while it is a funny SFM video about a camera, speaker or TV headed robots fighting against toilets with heads on them that were all constantly singing 'Skibidi Bop Bop Yes Yes', it is still an accurate depiction of war and I thought, why don't I put it in this story?
_____________________________________________
In the time of the night, where the sky is dark, the moon shone bright and the air is cool....
Esdeath, almost naked and wearing only a white shirt that barely covers her voluptuous body, look outside of the bustling city of the Empire where it's light shone bright amongst the seeming darkness of the night as she stands on the balcony itself.
Thought while the atmosphere itself is as peaceful as it sounds and looks, Esdeath sport a really sad face in her expression, especially when with what Tatsumi had said to her.
As she sigh in disappointment, she heard a flap of wings and then hear, "Hey, Esdeath. Why the long face there?"
Esdeath recognised the deep voice of her first love and look to see Asmodeus, showcasing his wings behind his back, is flying before him.
Her eyes widened in surprise as she said, "Asmodeus, you're here."
"Well, forgive me for the sudden intrusion but I would like to know of the fact that you had a certain 'lover' with you. Tatsumi, correct?" Asmodeus said, reminding her.
"Oh, what's wrong?" Esdeath said with a teasing smile, "Is the Demon Lord jealous that I cheated on him? Well, I'm sorry but while you are someone that loves me for who I am and how good it feels when... ehe... force yourself upon me..." She said with a giggle, "I have found something charming in Tatsumi. Something that I don't know how to say it but..." Esdeath stopped herself, smiling while her face blush.
"I'm not mad. To be honest with you, I mainly treat my subjugation upon you to be nothing more than just a prize to feel good on fucking someone as beautiful as you, Esdeath..." Asmodeus admitted with a shrug, "I mean, it does make me comes across as an evil scum. But then again, I am a demon. And we demons are all the embodiment of sin itself..." Asmodeus continue to say, "Especially when the most evil thing we could have known is not admitting it. So, I'm not mad that you want someone that you have an eye for it."
Esdeath smiled, listening to what Asmodeus said, at how understanding it is.
"But... I see that it isn't meant to be, right? If that sad face of yours is any indication." Asmodeus pointed out, making Esdeath's happy expression melt into a frown at what Asmodeus had pointed out.
Asmodeus the float besides Esdeath as his wings disappeared while giving Esdeath a pat on the shoulder with a rather sympathetic look, "What's wrong, Esdeath?"
Esdeath then sigh before she started to explain, "Well, if you know that your army have all been demolished by the so-called Seven Virtuous Champions-"
"Hard not to forget." Asmodeus commented on.
"I was about to celebrate our victory by giving Tatsumi the love of his life as I intend on pleasuring him as I see fit, to see to it that he shall accept me as his lover, once and for all. Aside from you, that is." Esdeath commented on the last part, which made Asmodeus rolled his eyes at her remark.
"But..." Esdeath then looked behind her, seeing that Tatsumi is now sleeping on her bed as she said, "I.... I don't know. I mean, I want Tatsumi to fall for me and yet, despite my beauty and my strength, why do I get the feeling that it won't happen?"
"Because he knows that you caused the Empire to become like this." Asmodeus exclaimed her.
"Pardon, Asmodeus?" Esdeath said in confusion.
"Listen, Esdeath, I'll be real with you." Asmodeus then begin his explanation, "Before, Tatsumi was just a newly inexperienced young warrior who is naive on how the Empire has become a corrupt cesspool of crime and villainy and is trying to save his village from heavy taxation and poverty. Poverty that are the result of the Empire openly wasting each and every economy possible that will result in easy pickings for me."
Esdeath continued to listen to what he said, "He was about to enlist himself into the army but was denied because he was being overconfident and wanted to be the rank of captain now."
"Hmph, is that it? Well, if I were to see Tatsumi earlier, I could be a better judge than that." Esdeath explained with a scoff.
"Yes, well. Let's just say that he has a pretty bad experience in the Capital. You still know Leone, right?" Asmodeus said.
"You mean that Night Raid member that I had fun with? What about her?" Esdeath asked in confusion about the Lionelle user.
"Tatsumi is bewitched by her... charm and got scammed out of his money." Asmodeus stated which made Esdeath burst into laughter.
"Pfft. He did what?" Esdeath thought in disbelief while having a realization, "Although, then again, considering her body, I'm not surprised. But what is this have to do with Tatsumi?"
"Well, since Tatsumi is now broke, he got scouted by a noble girl who took him in the name of compassion." Asmodeus stated which also made Esdeath scoffed in disbelief.
"Unbelievable. While it isn't that truly out of the ordinary, I know every noble in the Empire and everyone are..." Esdeath looked at the nobility of the Empire before saying, "Well... deserving of your... retribution upon them."
"Indeed. This noble girl and her family were all sadist who tortures many, many innocent travellers just for the fun of it. And Tatsumi would have been their next victim..." He then gives a surprising answer, "Were it not for the coming of Night Raid upon their home."
"Hold on. I recognize this. It is an incident where a noble family had been killed by Night Raid. I didn't take notice on such an incident because it doesn't interest. Until this incident is where Tatsumi is at." Esdeath then said, "You mean that Tatsumi has a connection with Night Raid?"
"More then a connection, Esdeath? Tatsumi is one of their members." Asmodeus answered, dropping the bombshell as Esdeath's eyes had widened in shock.
"I see..." Esdeath then looked on the horizon, her shock becoming rather palpable at what she heard, "And if I had known any better, Night Raid's leader is the one that deserved to be considered as my rival Najenda. And if Tatsumi is in Night Raid and Najenda told him everything then-"
"She also told you on how much of an evil bitch you are. And from Tatsumi's moral standpoint, she always told him on how you are the worst of the worst, which makes Tatsumi sees you as his enemy that he must kill." Asmodeus said to her.
Esdeath then gritted her teeth before saying, "That damned Najenda. It's not enough that she is weak and dared to betray the Empire. Now she ruined my love life. Why, when I get my hands on her-"
"Hey, hey. None of that now. Night Raid is now an ally to my cause and you are also a traitor of the Empire. And furthermore, remember who is responsible for making Najenda betray the Empire and make her say bad things about to Tatsumi about you. You should expect people to hate for what you did. Why is this any different?" Asmodeus explained to her while Esdeath glared at him.
"And how would I know that you aren't lying to me and this is all a ploy to not share instead?" Esdeath accused Asmodeus.
"Simple. Aside from the fact that I put one of my Watchers on their headquarters, I also sent one of my creations to become a part of their members. And from their inclusion that I know everything from them." Asmodeus explained to her before she then said, "That and Tatsumi is also my champion."
"Your what?" Esdeath said in surprise.
"My champion. I gave the boy one of my weapons from my armory that allows him to be far more powerful than even the Teigu users of the Empire. The red blade that he had wield in the tournament, killing Boethius Blackhand with some ease. Got it?" Asmodeus explained it to her.
Esdeath then looked at Asmodeus with a certain look before giving an amused chuckle before once again, looked at the horizon before giving a disappointed sigh and said, "So, Tatsumi won't be falling for me. Is that it?"
Asmodeus, too, sigh and said, "I'm sorry, Esdeath. But that is the truth. We can't all get anything in this world. You can be the strongest, the smartest or the most powerful but there are times when even with these traits, you can't have everything. Even love. Especially one that doesn't share your interest in... well... you get the idea."
Esdeath had heard what Asmodeus as her eyes are hidden beneath her hair as she stayed silent.
Asmodeus seemed to be a little unnerved by her silence as he then said, "Uhm, Esdeath. Is there a reason why you love Tatsumi?" Asmodeus said before thinking, 'Now that I said that out loud, there is little depth on why Esdeath get so madly in love with Tatsumi except that he has kind smile that instantly charmed her. I mean, I get that she has some kind of requirement but it never give much depth on the why, actually.' He thought to himself.
Esdeath then looked into the sky with a smile as she said, "It's his smile."
'Thought so.' Asmodeus thought.
"I don't know how do I feel it but whenever Tatsumi has that smile, it almost makes my heart flutter and I should protect that smile so long as I live and breathe..." Esdeath continue to explain.
'Okay, that is informative.' Asmodeus thought again.
"And then, I will train him to become just like me, embracing my very own philosophy so that he shall accept the world if only so he and I shall survive in this world and nothing can stop me. And if he tried to resist, I will make sure that he shall understand his place as I will slowly and painfully make him suffer and accept me with a dose of pain and a dose of pleasure and-"
'Okay, too much information.' Asmodeus thought as he tried to cover his ears over Esdeath's ramblings.
"But..." Esdeath suddenly stop his ramblings as she said, "I guess his smile reminds me of someone I knew. Back then when I was a child, before my tribe was raided, that is."
"Someone you knew?" It is Asmodeus' turn to sound confused.
"You see, when I was hunting for some Danger Beast in the forest, I stumble upon... somewhere..." Esdeath said in uncertainty.
"What kind of somewhere?" Asmodeus asked.
"I don't know. I haven't thought about it since I thought it was part of my imagination as a child back then. But..." Esdeath started explaining, "All I know is that it is a place where the sky is white and clear, the buildings are tall and clean, everything is all too bright and finally, I... I can't explain much but it is rather surreal to me."
'That's an understatement.' Asmodeus thought of this new information.
"But when I get there, I met someone there. Three people that I don't know if I would consider them friends or not but they were nice back then..." Esdeath explained to him.
"And who are these friends of yours?" Asmodeus asked.
"Well, there is Cypher. He is this funny guy who has that smile on his face. Not like Tatsumi but still endearing. He always to laugh, play, dance and do things that are both funny and crazy that is never boring with him and he can do anything. And I mean, anything." Esdeath empathize the word.
"Like, anything, anything?" Asmodeus said.
"I don't know but he did turned the world around me from a city to a forest of varied colours with trees that are sentient and Cypher always makes me meet this cute little creatures that looks like us but with wings on their backs." Esdeath described them to Asmodeus.
'Did Esdeath meet some fairies?' Asmodeus thought before he said, "And how did the meeting go?"
Esdeath then give a look that feels like she wants to kill as she threateningly said, "If I ever meet them again, I will kill them for forcing me to suffer so many humiliations they had forced upon me."
"Humiliations?" Asmodeus said.
"The public humiliation of being naked, forcing to wear embarrassing clothes, the spanking, the wedgies and the indentured roles I was forced to act..." Esdeath gives a gritted teeth in anger and said, "Once I get my hands on them, they will suffer for all eternity."
"I see." Asmodeus said before thinking, 'Now that she had described, she could possibly described the fairies of the more chaotic temperament. They're really weak where the only danger are there numbers. It's the True Fae, powerful fairies that are less like tiny humanoids with wings and more like rather incomprehensible creatures with a very alien-like mentality that are considered powerful enough to be a high-level boss.'
"Then there is another one. His name is Hades." Esdeath said.
"Oh? And who is Hades actually?" Asmodeus asked her.
"His boring. That's all you need to know." Esdeath said in a dismissive tone.
'Well, that's anticlimactic.' Asmodeus thought in a deadpan manner.
"But lastly, it is the last one that I truly consider as my true friend. And maybe, a possible crush when I was a child." Esdeath said as Asmodeus continue to listen, "His name is Yahweh. He was a little boy that is the same age as I am. He was kind, caring, loving, compassionate, a bit naive but also really smart. He told me something. He said to me that while I told him about how much father said that, 'The Strong Lives and The Weak Dies', he also told me if I am no longer strong, would I deserve to live? I told him that I will always live because I am strong. Then he said, if I am wrong and that I am weak, would I deserve to complain?"
Esdeath sigh and then continued her explanation as she said, "Honestly, I was frustrated by Yahweh's rather confusing response and I want out because he made me angry. Looking back at it now, I believe that if it weren't for his words, I would have stayed a weakling. In comparison to my father that is."
"Let me guess, daddy issues?" Asmodeus pointed out to her.
"Not exactly. My father had taught me everything I know in order to survive and teach me on how to be strong and had been weeding out the weakness from our tribe in order to maintain our strength forever, regardless of the importance of their role in the tribe, that is." Esdeath explained to him.
"Let me guess. It fucked him up, right?" Asmodeus said.
"You have no idea. My father's solution of maintaining his tribe's strength is to weed out those who doesn't show any form of fighting prowess. And instead of having them given a different role, they were killed on the spot. And..." Esdeath grabbed the railings of the balcony with a gripping shudder and said, "My mother is no exception."
Asmodeus' eyes widened in shock at this.
"I didn't know back then. I thought it is just a necessary step of becoming the strongest tribe in the land. However, for all our strength, we cannot win against a rival tribe that burned everything to the ground, slaughtering everyone, no matter the age or gender, with no mercy or remorse." Esdeath explained her story.
"And this... this is how you adopt that social darwinistic philosophy of yours?" Asmodeus stated to her.
"My so-called Social Darwinism philosophy is a view maintained through merit, right and honour. What bares me even more was when I met my father, who is almost on his deathbed to order me to take his revenge upon the rival tribe, I refused because once, I saw my father as the strongest of the tribe, now I see a coward and a hypocrite. And I don't regret leaving him to die in a burning tent." Esdeath said, ending his story.
"So, that's the reason you believe in that viewpoint of yours, huh?" Asmodeus said to her.
"It is viewpoint that is the whole truth of the world. A viewpoint where in this world, you will need the strength to survive and live while those without one are doomed to suffer and die for all that anyone cares. Without strength, you have nothing. And I earned my rightful place as the strongest in the Empire through all the hard work I have done with myself. That is all get to say, Asmodeus. That is all." Esdeath declared to Asmodeus.
Asmodeus, however, continue to stare impassively before he smirked and said, "Well, that is an information that I should know now, huh? Surprising, really."
Esdeath smirked as well and said, "Thank you. I guess I was not one for thinking back then but looking at it now, with the whole world being flipped upside down, I guess there are some things possible." Esdeath said before she sigh as she said, "So what happens now?"
"Well, Esdeath..." Asmodeus started to say something, "Since Tatsumi is basically a spy to the Revolutionary Army, he will tell his allies everything about the Jaegers and the Seven Virtuous Champions. If you ever get him to your hunting trip, this is your chance to have him slip from your grasp and let him return to Night Raid. And I hope there isn't any problem with the plan, right?"
"Not at all. I may wish for Tatsumi to stay because I am this close to have him fall for me. But..." She just sigh and said, "It was a lost cause, anyway. Anything else?"
"Yes, remember Dr. Stylish?" Asmodeus said about him.
"What about him?" Esdeath said, in regards to the annoying doctor.
"He will likewise follow Tatsumi to his base where he won't tell anyone, bring his army to invade and will have an untimely inevitable death there. Is there a problem?" Asmodeus said to her.
"Nope. In fact, I'm glad because he is too... annoying..." Esdeath said to her.
"Good. Well, good luck on your mission, Esdeath. I'll be off." Asmodeus said as he started to climb over the balcony to jump off before he was stopped.
"Wait..." Asmodeus stopped himself before he turned around to Esdeath who started to take her shirt off, revealing her naked body for all to see for him, "Are you going to stop before you get the chance of feeling good?"
"Well, when you put it that way..." Asmodeus gives a lecherous smile as the room is filled with moans while Tatsumi, thought still sleeping, is having a slight difficult time as Esdeath and Asmodeus continue to make hard love towards each other, uncaring on how loud they are getting.
