Chapter Twenty-One: The Control Room Upgrade
---
Crow stood at the entrance of the Control Room, feeling the weight of the moment settle on his shoulders. The Mobile Dome had been upgraded, and with it came a new, imposing command center—a place where he would oversee his empire's growth and expansion.
The room itself was unlike anything Crow had seen before. The walls were lined with sleek, dark metal, pulsating with an eerie, otherworldly energy. Holographic interfaces filled the air, displaying endless streams of data and statistics about his empire—his army, the slaves, the systems he controlled.
He marveled at the sheer scale of it all, watching as columns of glowing text reported the current stats of each of his Divine Rank, Demi-God Rank, and Emperor Rank women, as well as the S Rank, A Rank, and B Rank warriors he had claimed. The figures were staggering. The Dome was now a living, breathing entity that existed solely to serve his will.
---
Mirko and Lady Nagant entered the room, both of them moving toward Crow with obvious intent. Mirko, as usual, was practically bouncing with excitement, her eyes wide with admiration. Lady Nagant, ever the more composed of the two, walked silently, a gentle smile playing at the corner of her lips.
---
"Master," Mirko said, her voice full of eagerness. "This is amazing! It's... perfect! It's everything we could ever want."
---
Crow gave her a smile, but it was a smile of power, of control. "This is only the beginning," he replied, his tone cool and measured. "With this control room, we can track everything. Every slave, every warrior, every resource we have... and the potential to expand further is limitless."
---
Lady Nagant stood beside him, her eyes scanning the interface with a knowing look. "It's all yours now, Crow. You've built this... empire. But there's always more to conquer, isn't there?"
---
Crow chuckled darkly. "Always more."
---
He walked toward one of the central control panels, his fingers brushing over the smooth surface. The holographic display flickered to life, showing real-time data about his Dome—including the list of upgrades available. The numbers glowed in bright red text, signaling that the upgrades were ready for him to activate.
---
System Notification:

---
Crow's eyes gleamed with anticipation as he read through the options. Each upgrade was another step toward cementing his dominance over the multiverse. He could already feel the power of the Dome coursing through him, but this—this was something more.
---
"We need to expand," Crow said to Mirko and Lady Nagant, his voice commanding. "We need more space, more slaves, more resources."
---
Lady Nagant nodded in agreement, her fingers gliding over her own control panel. "I'll start organizing the training facilities for the new slaves. We can't afford to let them lag behind."
---
Mirko bounced on her heels, excited. "And I'll oversee the S Ranks and A Ranks. We can have them ready for anything."
---
Crow gave them both a nod of approval before his attention shifted back to the Control Panel. His fingers tapped the screen, selecting the Expansion upgrade first. The Dome's internal systems hummed, and the space around him seemed to grow as the walls of the control room expanded, opening up new rooms and corridors. He could feel the energy surge through the Dome, the System adjusting itself to accommodate the new growth.
---
System Notification:
[Dome Expansion Complete!]
New Rooms Unlocked: Training Facilities, Slave Quarters, Resource Storage, and Battle Arenas.
---
The walls around him shifted, revealing new spaces—each one designed for a specific purpose. The Training Facilities were equipped with advanced holographic technology to simulate real-world combat scenarios for his slaves, ensuring that they could be molded into even more powerful assets. The Slave Quarters had expanded, creating a place for his ever-growing collection of warriors and slaves to rest, recuperate, and prepare for their next orders.
---
Crow's fingers moved quickly, selecting the Energy Core Enhancement option. With the power reserves now increased, he could fuel even more upgrades—his ambitions were limitless.
---
System Notification:
[Energy Core Enhancement Complete!]
Energy Reserves Increased by 500%.
---
The room lit up as the core's power intensified, sending ripples of energy through the Dome. Crow could feel the boost immediately—the very air seemed to hum with power.
---
"Perfect," Crow muttered under his breath. "Now we can do anything."
---
Mirko and Lady Nagant looked on with awe as the room seemed to become more alive with every upgrade. But Crow wasn't finished. The Slave Training upgrade would ensure that his S Rank, A Rank, and even B Rank slaves could rise to their full potential.
---
"We need more warriors," Crow said, his gaze shifting toward the display. "And more powerful ones."
---
As he spoke, the Dimension Gateway option flickered on the control panel. Crow's eyes narrowed. The portal to new worlds had just become available.
---
"We'll need to explore these worlds," Crow said, his voice full of dark excitement. "New challenges, new warriors, new slaves."
---
With a flick of his wrist, he activated the Dimension Gateway, and a swirling portal began to form at the center of the Control Room. It pulsed with an energy unlike anything Crow had ever encountered before. A new world was waiting—one where he would conquer, enslave, and build his empire even larger.
---
Mirko and Lady Nagant moved closer, standing by his side as the portal grew more stable. "Where are we going, master?" Mirko asked, her voice full of eager anticipation.
---
Crow grinned, his eyes filled with malicious glee. "Anywhere I want."
---
And with that, the Dimension Gateway opened fully, revealing a new world beyond. Crow, his women, and his empire were ready for whatever lay ahead.
---
End of Chapter Twenty-One.
