Luminous looked at me, waiting for my next word like it was a death sentence.
"From now on and until you win a battle against me, you will call me 'big sister.'" She blinked rapidly, confused like the rest of the people present at what I just said.
"W...what do you mean? You can make me do practically anything, and you want me to call you big sister!"
"Yes, and it starts now. I will also accept "big sis," and I will of course call you "little sis." Is there a problem?" Luminous was stunned, incapable of comprehending what I was saying. When luminous.exe finished rebooting, she had an atomic blush on her face. She was trying to say something but didn't know what to say, so her mouth closed and opened like a fish on land.
I think it would be better to let her assimilate the fact that she has a big sister. So I take my meal and go in my room to finish it. Wendy, Sherry, and Shiro follow behind me, leaving a stunned Luminous behind.
When we reached my room, I saw Elysia in her secretary outfit, having recovered from our little fun and waiting for me.
"Make us some tea, Elysia. The best one, with the emotion of a mother who has just seen her enfant for the first time." She nodded and started to prepare the tea.
I sat at the head of the dining table, the others taking their places at my side. "Mama...can I ask you something?"
"Of course, sweety. What do you want to know?"
"Hum... D...do we need to call luminous, aunty Luminous now?" I took a moment to comprehend what she meant and then answered her.
"No, you don't need to, sweety. I only asked her that to humble her and to make sure she trains extra hard to defeat me. You can call her what you want."
"But Lady Lilith. Isn't Luminous your sister even without the bet?" That gave me pause. I thought of it for a moment, and Wendy was right. Technically, Luminous is my sister, as Valentine is our creator.
"Come to think of it. I guess it's true. Aunty Luminous, uh. That has a nice ring to it. Okay, girl, you can call Luminous "aunty" if you want." They all nodded their heads, and at that moment Elysia finished preparing the tea. She served us our cup of tea and took her position behind me.
I could sense she was curious about our conversation but didn't say anything. Truly an excellent secretary. When I leave this place, I will need to take her with me.
Speaking of leaving, I ask my secretary how the development of the succubi is while taking a sip of my tea.
"Elysia, how many years do you think it will take for the rest of the succubi to mature?" I see her thinking for a moment before giving me an answer.
"I think that in 5 more years all the succubi will have exited their capsules, my lady."
"That is earlier than expected. But it's good the training of the girls is coming along quite well. In 5 years we will leave this place, explore the world, and cause some war in the human kingdom. Maybe that will permit some of the succubi to evolve."
"Lady Lilith I don't think that will work. We are not like you, who can simply absorb all the emotion around and grow stronger. We will need some time to digest with so many emotions." Sherry remarked, and she was right. I often forget, but apart from me, the other succubus needs some time to process emotion.
"Ye...yeah, it's true, Mama. You are the only one capable of eating so many emotions. It's like your stomach has no end." Shiro remarked. I guess the others will need to naturally evolve with time, but at the rate they are eating, they will need a century to evolve naturally even with me naming them. Showing how talented the three in front of me are. There is always the method to make them fight to the death against a strong opponent. It'll permit them to eat emotion far faster and also give them real experience.
"Well, we will still do it. We just have to take the maximum emotions possible and stock them for later." I am such a considerate boss. I always think of the well-being of my subjects and totally am not doing it because I want to eat a good meal.
"You are right, Lady Lilith. With so many emotions, our people will have quality meals for a few decades." See Wendy confirm it. I am a great boss.
"Well, it is late. I think I will practice some magic until tomorrow. Feel free to visit me, girls, and goodnight if I don't see you again."
"Good night, Lady Lilith/Mama." They all left, leaving me only with Elysia. I continued to practice magic until late, and when I grew bored, I went in the bedroom with Elysia for an hour or two.
________________________________________________________________________________
The next day I go to the training ground only with Elysia this time. When I arrive, my little sister immediately rushes to me. It seems she is eager to see her big sister.
"What is wrong with you!? You got a favor from me, one of the strongest beings in existence, and you ask me to call you "big sister"!"
"Good morning to you too, little sis. Why are you so grumpy? Are you on your period?" It seems Luminous doesn't appreciate my joke, or maybe she really is on her period? Maybe some kind of spiritual period that happens once a millennium.
"I don't have a period, you dumbass! And you didn't answer my question! Why did you do it!?" It seems her arrogance from yesterday has been alleviated. Or perhaps the shock of my request put her back to factory settings, and it is her true personality that resurfaced?
"I didn't answer your question because I didn't hear the magic word."
"What do you mean? What is this magic word you are speaking of?"
"Come on, I am sure you can find the magic word, ~little sis~."
Luminous had a look of confusion before she suddenly became embarrassed, and her face became all red and 'cute.'
"Y...you seriously don't expect me to say that. Right?" I fixed luminous with a big smile on my face. After a minute of looking at each other in the eyes, Luminous cracked and looked at the side.
"W...why did y...you do it... B...big sister..." Her blush reached all the way to her ear. Meanwhile, I had a big smile on my face. Turns out the embarrassment of Luminous is also delicious. If everything about her continues to be this good, I will end up proposing to her.
"There are two reasons. The first is for you to never grow too arrogant by reminding you of your defeat every time you see me. The second is for you to train to catch up to me in the hope that you can stop calling me "big sister" and give me a good fight from time to time."
Luminous looked at me. Surprised that my reasons were all logical and in her interest. 'Yes, all of them. I am, after all, her big sister. I only want her to be happy.'
"I understand your reasoning, b…big sis, but did you need to do it like that? Was there no other way?" I looked at Luminous and thought to myself about what I could have done better. I didn't find anything.
"No, it was the best option, believe me. I only have good intentions for you. You are my little sister after all." I smiled at her, and Luminous seemed to become a little shy at my word and avoided my eyes.
And it's at that moment that a group of succubi entered the training ground led by Wendy, Sherry, and Shiro. Shiro, upon seeing me, waved shyly at me.
"Mama...can you teach us some swordsmanship like you said yesterday?" I looked at my cute daughter and smiled at her.
"Of course, sweety. Wait a minute. I will finish talking with Luminous, and I am all yours." Shiro looked at Luminous curiously.
"Does Aunty Luminous also want to train with us?" She said with all the innocence in the world.
I froze, and Luminous also stiffened. She robotically turned her head to Shiro, a strained smile on her face. "What did you call me? Sorry, I must have misheard you. Can you repeat, please?" Predicting what would happen, I started to back off from the ticking time bomb that was Luminous.
Shiro, not understanding the danger of the situation, tilted her head and repeated her word. "I called you Aunty Luminous. Mama said we can call you that since you are her little sister."
Luminous whipped her head in my direction, her eyes burning with fury. "The best attention, uh. You only wanted to have fun with me, didn't you?" She advanced menacingly toward me, and I backed off.
"Now calm down, Luminous. I swear I didn't do it only to make fun of you, and the idea to call you aunty came from the girls, not me." My word didn't seem to appease the situation at all.
"So you admit you wanted to have fun, and it is the reason I am obligated to call you 'big sis.'"
'Well, crap, in these kinds of situations there is only one solution.'
"Nigerundayo!"
"Come back here! I will beat you here and now!"
Luminous ended up chasing me for one entire day. After finally calming down, I explained to her that having fun was certainly one of the reasons I did it, but I also did it for her. It took some time to convince her, but I succeeded after some time.
After that I had to make up to my three daughters for not being able to train with them. Luminous ended up joining us, and so the day passed like that with me training with Wendy, Sherry, and Shiro. Luminous joins us from time to time. Valentine did come to bother her with some special training to pass his legacy on to her, something that bothered Luminous to no end.
She tried to defeat me on multiple occasions but never managed to, even with her best effort and her getting better at controlling her unique skill called lust, apparently, which is pretty fitting. She never managed to surpass my control over energy, and she couldn't widen the gap in our energy level enough for that to not be a problem. But fighting with her was still good, and there were even some close calls at the start.
The years passed in what felt like a blink, 5 years passed.

I am currently at the exit door of the facility with 297 succubi behind me, 3 great succubus at my side, and one High Human in a secretary outfit.
Everyone is pretty excited. After all, today is the day we finally reveal ourselves to the world. I have already made a plan. We are currently situated on the west side of the Jura Forest.
If we go to the west, there are many human countries. They will be the perfect base of operation for my plan, so I choose one that is particularly belligerent named the kingdom of Manelas after its first king, Ferdinand Manelas. It will be a piece of cake to take control of the kingdom and make up a false pretext for war with a neighboring kingdom.
After that I will probably let the succubi do what they want as I explore the world.
I look at Valentine and Luminous as they are here to see us off. "Don't worry, little sis. In some time you too will be able to leave, and when you do, you can visit me anytime you want."
"Shut up! The only reason I didn't leave is because you needed my help with training. I will leave as soon as I am more powerful than you, and at that moment it's you who will call me "big sister."
I wipe an imaginary tear. "They grow up so fast. It seems like it was still yesterday that I wiped the floor with your head. Oh wait, I did do that yesterday."
That reminder seemed to anger her for some reason. "Just go already, you stupid big sister!"
I chuckle and nod my head at Valentine, signaling him to open the door. As the door opens, the light of the sun seeps through the door, and I take my first step in this world.
'I can't wait to come. world, show me all the beautiful emotion you possess.'
