"It is I Golthuem the giver of eldritch gifts! I am a generous god and I have found that you are in need of my generosity mortal! You live a boring and meaningless life, you are in need of some mind worms!"
Maestro had just woken up from his sleep like he was jolted awake by this loud entity since clearly it wasn't human but why did he feel the strangest sense of deja vu right now.
"I'm sorry mind worms?" Maestro asked in confusion
"Yes, you heard that right mortal! Mind Worms! They are a parasitic organism that will take control over the hosts mind, but if you squish them and drink their juices, then recite a eldritch incantation you will become a mindslaver."
It was so obvious.
He was dreaming although it's weird since he haven't had a dream in a while but he could've been forgetting that or he was being isekai'd by a god which would be nice he wondered he if he could pick where he would end up and maybe some wishes as well?
"Wait what's a mind Slaver?" It was a stupid question to ask since it was probably a mind controlling race but... oh He didn't like the sound of that nor the look in his eyes as he started to explain.
"A mindslaver is a mortal with the power to subjugate mortal minds and turn them into slaves."
He really didn't like the sound of that. Controlling minds seems morally wrong and slavery at least to me didn't seem right but was he really in a position to refuse this God who was granting him this unwanted race change.
Would he even look human anymore?
Maestro nodded along as he explained more.
"This will also make your body fit without having to exercise. Does this sound too good to be true? It doesn't end there, the ingestion of the mind worm juices will also keep your body young forever and make your breath smell really fresh."
He sounds like a door to door salesman with that pitch even if he had to drink mind worms juice.
"Speaking of which here you go!" as he handed him a glass that was filled with purple liquid which I probably assume it to be mind worm juice.
"Wait won't my braces have an affect on the eldritch chant I have to perform" Maestro didn't want to become a mass of blob where tongues shouldn't be or be filled with so much knowledge my head explodes.
"Oh yeah..... ya know normally I wouldn't do this for anyone but I am in a generous mood today so why the hell not!" He snapped his fingers as his braces were gone and his teeth had shifted into the position they were supposed to be but fast-forwarded thanks to that snap.
"Now that's a million dollar smile, now drink the juice"
He hesitated drinking it but again he couldn't refuse and he chugged it down as fast as he could, Hiccups be damned.
"Repeat after me Ph'nal dris'tok ven aether'gah" oh thank goodness it wasn't a lot of words to remember
"Ph'nal dris'tok venaether'gah" He repeated after him.
A strange feeling started to well up inside as and then a great uncomfortableness had begun to creep up on him as his body shifted and contorted as he saw the fat from his body being taken away and turned into a much skinner build.
"Oh you didn't nearly scream as much as the last guy but he resisted the changes to his body but you let it happen" He looked at Maestro with curiosity. Maestro himself couldn't believe he let that happen but maybe this wouldn't be all bad.
"But that wasn't as bad as you thought now was it? Now you will develop your mind control powers and I'll walk you though it. I'll project my mind onto your mind and make a visual representation of your powers in a format that is comprehensible to morals such as yourself. You have 14 Mindslaver points to spend and you must have 0 or more at the end of this."
Oh alright it's like a CYOA.
"First you must choose how you will take control over your victims mind and choose only one method."
The visual representations he had given me were able to tell me the means of control I could utilized.
Telepathy was the most expensive at 3 points and contract costed nothing and everything else in between were decent options.
He decided to get Telepathy since while it was the most expensive one. He didn't want to accidently mind control somebody.
"What kind of slaves do you want to turn your victims into? You can choose any numbers of slave types and you can change a slaves type anytime you want, it could be switched as a punishment or maybe as a reward? You can also release any slave from your control if you want to."
The being showed him the options.
He chose Conditioned slave since that seemed the one he was most comfortable since that kept their free will.
"You are capable of so much more then just dominating someones mind. To control someones mind is also to control their body and soul. You see the mind, body and soul is actually not three separate things, they are one. Boons are various effects you can apply to your mind control to alter your slaves in various ways. Boons can be given to your slaves and taken away at your will, if you release a slave from your influence they will keep any boons you didn't remove from them."
He looked over the boons and decided to take two Memory rewrite and Mass Control because if he was going to become a Mindlsaver he might as well just roll with it.
"Now that your mind has expanded a little after becoming a mindslaver you are able to unlock powers beyond your wildest dreams."
He gave Maestro the visions of the powers that he could purchase. So naturally he chose Planeswalker to travel the Multiverse since what would be the point of staying on earth and plus Fictional Girls are the best.
Now he was out of points which should mean that he was done and can go anywhere in the Multiverse. At least that's what he thought until the God gave him a smirk.
"Do you want more power?" he questioned and Maestro nodded hestatsily.
"Then you need to offer me something in return or limit your own powers in a way that will allow you to relocate the lost power." Golthuem said as he put the vision of the drawbacks in Maestro's head.
He looked over the drawbacks which could be applied and He was very tempted by Laura since that would give him 2 points but he didn't want to have his Saturdays be busy other then that The vision of her granted to him made her look very attractive but.... he was gonna do it anyways cause.... horny.
He also took Unnatural Aura for 1 point. He also took The Abyss drawback which meant he would be hunted by abyss girls which will be a problem if he didn't have a plan. He used newly granted 5 points to buy Flesh Sculptor
"Is there any other way for me to gain power" It was more for curiosity than any actually want for more points
"You still want more power mortal?! I mean you could always make a pact with an entity to gain more power but you won't be able to contact a specific entity, instead you will need to open up your mind to the vastness of the multiverse and let the entities contact you, if any entity is interested in making a pact with you they will let you know. You can only make one pact or you might start a inter-dimensional war among immortals and I won't allow you to do that."
Maestro agreed with Golthuem. He went to meditate and try to open his mind to the vastness of the multiverse.
Hello is anyone there I'd like to make a pact? I don't know how this would work
Uh Hello Hello
I started to "see" a form start to take shape into... into an anthropomorphic sloth girl that had horns and a demon tail that was the definition of Extra Thiccccc!
[Image here]
"Why hello there mortal well aren't you just a curious one? Why have you contacted me?" she spooked with the voice that was ready to yawn and go right back to sleep.
"Uh well I was told that in order to gain more power I needed to make a pact with beings from across the Multiverse"
"Did Golthuem tell you that?"
"Um yes mam?"
"Well aren't you polite well if it's Golthuem that told you to come here then I see no issue with making a pact with you and I assume you've become a Mind Slaver already?"
"Yes mam"
"Well to let you know who you contacted. I am Susie the Arch-Demon of Sloth and I offer you my pact of Comfessness and if you agree to play video every day, watch anime 2 hours a day, eat really good snacks, pwn nOObs, sleep at least 13 hours a day and take really comfy naps..."
That sounds way too difficult for me to do? I mean do I have to watch anime for exactly 2 hours
"Ehhh that sounds too hard. I'll think of a better pact hmmm..." It looks like she took a nap in the middle of her thinking it at least that's what he thought.
"I will also give you some power say 3 mindslaver points only if you agree to live a comfy life, have fun and never do anything ambitious with your life like world conquest. I also want you to get me a electronic wheelchair, walking is for plebs and normalfags."
He could totally get onboard with this pact since he didn't feel like taking over worlds it sounds like way too much work, Maestro wasn't really an ambitious guy. He could get her an electronic wheelchair for her.
Psssh that's easy peasy lemon squeezy.
"Oh is that all Susie? I can do all that easy peasy" This is the best pact ever.
"Yeah, you also have to visit me in my pocket dimension from time to time and watch netflix and chill with me, that's a code word for sex by the way."
Uhhhh WHAT?!?!?!?!
"I mean we don't have to have sex all the time, I'm not like my sis Laura. We can play video games, watch anime or I could just take a nap in your lap. I'll teach you the teleportation spell to my dimension and you can drop by whenever you feel like it. Is my pact comfy enough for you?"
"I mean sure yeah Susie" Maestro tried not freaking out since he wasn't sure he was gonna be able to satisfy her since she was demon.
"Great I'll see you later come by soon" She started into his very soul oh good lord what did he get himself into.
He opened his eyes to see Golthuem waking him up by snapping his fingers. Maestro spent his newly acquired 3 points on the powers Summoning and Alchemy and the boon Fertility
"Now let's test your mind control powers and enslave your first slave! I have a couple of candidates in mind for this task. The first slave will be free"
He opened portals to a bunch of girls and one boy but my eyes were already set on the elf girl that was in deep slumber.
"This a collectors object, a high elven princess which is the last of her line and race. You see the universe she comes from was overrun by demons.
Gwedillth witnessed the annihilation Of her entire race and the demons even tortured her parents to death in front Of her. In anger and desperation she preformed a forbidden ritual to summon me, she begged me to destroy her universe since it was beyond saving and offered me her mind, body and soul. I didn't want that, but agreed to the end her universe if she became my maid for 2 years.
After she held up her end of the bargain, she was going to kill herself. So I put a sleep enchantment on her and put her in this box for storage.
Gwedillth is pretty depressing when she's awake, she has a habit of crying when she thinks no one is watching. I tried to make her happy and make her smile, but happiness seems to be painful for her. Her personality? She is shy, submissive, polite, timid and very kind. Maybe you can make her happy again? Or maybe you want to torture her? I don't care, since I have absolutely no sense of right and wrong."
He decided to take her as my first slave since maybe he can show her happiness again.
He used his telepathy to take control of her mind and he felt slimy but at least she has her free will still sorta. This will make her happy in time so long as she listens to his orders.
Plus he wanted to know how elves ears feel so he felt them, they felt weird like longer ears but still nice to have.
He created a portal to another universe which he was sure would lead him into his first world with these powers alongside his elf slave.
