Abyssal Lord of the Magi World

Chapter 115 - Daybreak Clan



The next few weeks were very active for Zatiel. 

Even though the tower itself was completed, it still needed a lot of resources to work and be a self-sustainable territory.

He had bought some basic necessities a long time ago, but there was a need to have items that could be useful to a Magus.

To get such items, Zatiel made some incursion into the Endless Forest and started to hunt Rank 1 and Rank 2 magic creatures for high energy food and materials useful for all kinds of professions and spells, as well magic herbs of different kinds and in great quantities.

Due to his power, he did not face any sort of real danger as he hunted since he always remained outside the inner area of the forest.

It was only after four weeks of hunting and gathering all sorts of material, that his ring was almost full and he returned to the tower.

Once Zatiel was in front of the tower, he sent a message through his chaotic core.

"You can come now."

A couple of seconds later, four individuals appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

They were Heinz, Sophia, Ezequiel, and Dante's Elder Brain body. The four of them were covered with the cultivator's consciousness since he teleported them here.

Zatiel contacted them since he had things to discuss with all of them, and now that his tower was finished and he completed the things he needed to do outside, Sophia, Ezequiel, and the elder brain could move in.

The moment the four arrived, they were immediately attracted by the black magic tower that was filled with lava-like golden inscriptions and an impressive sphere of golden flames on its peak.

After a moment, Sophia, Ezequiel, and the elder brain came near Zatiel's side, and they smiled at each other.

"I must say brother, your magic tower is truly impressive. Although the material of the Sinux Magic Tower is of higher quality, when it comes to runic formations, it certainly is inferior despite being done by a Rank 3 Runemaster. "

As a Soul Forging existence, Heinz could see the impressive power that the sphere of golden flames contained, and although it was not a threat to him even if it landed directly on his body, the power it generated was growing with each passing moment.

"Sometimes it is more important about the way you use your runes than the rank of the rune itself when it comes to displaying its power and abilities." 

Although the Rank of the runes itself was not great, Zatiel was very proud of the effect they were displaying, especially as he felt the vitality in the light growing.

"Tell me, did you obtain it?"

"Of course, it was pretty simple. Here is the contract to make the position of the Daybreak Clan official in the Aeternum Empire, and also to mark the lands surrounding your tower and any other land that you take, which does not have a ruler yet, yours." 

Heinz smiled as he passed a parchment to Zatiel in which all sorts of inscriptions could be seen proving its authenticity.

Although Heinz made obtaining the contract appear to be easy, the truth was completely different.

Normally before starting to be considered becoming a clan of the empire and obtaining the rights that title, one needs to have a magic tower that could work as a stronghold and at least have a Peak Rank 2 life form as the head of the clan.

But when someone with the power and background that Heinz has was the one who requested it, things were completely different.

Zatiel scanned the contract and was very satisfied with it.

Normally, all sorts of clauses and requirements would be on the contract, forcing the new clan to do a lot of heavy work for the empire, but the one that Zatiel had was different.

In essence, the only thing he needed to do was continue selling a high amount of runes to the empire, and in case a conflict with another powerful organization was to happen, he will have to join the battles.

Zatiel has been selling runes to the empire for a long time and did not plan to stop now, and with matters regarding battles between powerful organizations inside the Magi World, that will only happen when those Law Beings that ruled them were to shred all pretenses with each other and fight.

And he knew that the probability of that happening was very small since fights among Law Beings of the same world were very complicated.

The main reason why Zatiel wanted to form his clan was the fact that now he could make all the individuals under him obtain the status of a member of the Aeternum Empire, giving them the same right that a Magus would have, no matter what race they may be.

Zatiel saved the contract before looking back at Heinz. 

"How are the preparations for war going?"

"I already have the World Gate connected to the coordinates that you gave me, and the war resources that we will need are already in my possession. Now comes the hard part. I will have to search for those Rank 4 individuals that will join us during the invasion," replied Heinz.

Heinz knew that having no partner was much better than picking a bad partner, so he was very careful in selecting the candidates.

"Be alert, we can never be too careful, especially considering the threat in the shadows." 

Zatiel gave a meaningful glance at Heinz when he said the last part.

Heinz becomes serious when he hears Zatiel's words and nods.

"I will contact you when I have found our possible partners." 

After saying those words, Heinz teleported back to his tower.

Zatiel turns to see the trio and when he scans them, he realizes that the two Neo-Demons have advanced a lot in the last month, especially Sophia who was already Peak Rank 1.

"Sophia, how much have you advanced in the creation of your new Rank Spell?"

"I have already started to charge my consciousness with abyss aura, but I have had problems in mastering my Rank Spell since I want it to be able to fuse with my previous one."

When Zatiel heard this he nodded. 

Although merging the Rank Spell obtained in Rank 1 and 2 wasn't necessary, it will greatly enhance the effect of the spell.

Of course, it was extremely difficult to do and only those with great talent and control over the natural energies were able to do it.

With this information, Zatiel already had a plan and the task of everyone.

"Dante, you will choose thirty kobolds and create a search party that will explore Wasteland in search of tribes that are worth nurturing and you will offer them the chance to join my clan. Tell them that they will get the status of a member of the Empire and a Path Technique if they join us."

"Yes father, I will start right away." 

Any information that Dante's consciousness obtained was shared with the true body, so the boy was able to start working immediately.

"I will let you decide how to approach them and the way to guide the kobolds, it will be a good trial practice before the war. If they refuse to join us, leave them, but if they accept, they must reach here unharmed, that will be your mission."

Now that Zatiel had a Clan in the Empire, he could make the kobolds an official part of his power and make them obtain the rights that a Magus will gain.

But if a hundred half-dragon-like creatures were to appear out of nowhere, it will raise questions about their origins, so by mixing them with thousands of other creatures and races, it will be more discrete and no one will find trouble with them.

"Sophia, you will join them and use that time to practice your Rank Spell against some live enemies. Any migration of this scale could raise evil intentions of some Magus, if that happens, kill them."

Although there was some disappointment in the face of the woman, since she was hoping to spend some time with Zatiel, she knew that the preparations for war were important, so she did not say a word and only nodded before flying away towards the Underground entrance.

"Little..., I mean EZ you will remain in the tower until your Bloodline Heart is finished and then join them later."

Ezequiel was already fully grown and his appearance was that of a young man around his twenties, so it was becoming embarrassing for the two of them when he uses the term 'little'.

So Zatiel decided to just call him EZ, although sometimes he makes mistakes due to old habits.

Ezequiel nodded and without wasting time, he went to the top of the tower.

"Let's go. The elder brain will be kept at the lowest level. There it will train and also control the tower and its automatons. But before it starts with that, we will finish the Path Techniques that will be given to the new members of the clan."

"As you wish, father."

Dante moved the elder brain body together with Zatiel and went inside the tower.
