High walls and ample stores, this ti, he wanted to do sothing big!
…
Once the dust had settled, Kael first opened a portal within the vast expanse of the Lord Mansion, letting out the Elf Rangers and Shadow Clan.
The destinations for the Elf Rangers and Shadow Clan had long been decided. The first thing they had to do upon their release was to collect a sli from the Gluttonous Sli Ranch.
Indeed, it was both a favor and a deterrent.
The slis in the Gluttonous Sli Ranch were now multiplying rapidly. Since all their progenitors belonged to the Gluttonous Sli Queen, Aister, these slis naturally continued this chain of control.
Although Aister's control over the second and third generations of the Gluttonous Slis gradually weakened compared to their progenitors, Kael wasn't foolish.
The standard for the Gluttonous Sli clan to determine the identity of their queen was absurdly simple: as long as you were strong enough, you could gain control by infecting other Gluttonous Slis.
So, before the second and third generations of slis could gain their freedom, they imdiately encountered Aister, who had evolved beyond recognition under Kael's care.
Predictably… they all fell imdiately. The weakened control permissions once again soared to an undeserved height within just a few rounds.
Now, under Aister's command, these extrely obedient Gluttonous Slis swiftly completed symbiosis with the Elf Clan and Shadow Clan.
While they marveled at the benefits the Gluttonous Slis provided, they also realized that the gift was both a benefit and a warning.
Because… the ultimate control over the Gluttonous Slis rested with Aister.
Upon completing the symbiosis, they clearly felt this.
If they chose to betray, this gift could directly turn into a lethal poison.
However, neither the Elf Rangers nor the Shadow Clan raised any objections.
After all, if Kael didn't leave so ans of control over them, they would be more anxious, fearing that Kael might eliminate them all in a fit of displeasure.
The Shadow Clan leader had previously offered the Shadow Stone voluntarily for this very reason.
Now, although it wasn't as deadly as offering the Shadow Stone directly, Kael's control over them actually allowed them to sleep peacefully.
However, this ti, a small change occurred.
Not long after arranging the work above ground, a troubling ssage from Wandong City reached Kael.
The bearer of this intelligence was Old White.
Forever attentive to his master's every move, Old White was concerned with everything Kael cared about.
Naturally, Old White knew how important Mira, the innocent girl caught up during the first strategy campaign on the "Embers of the Empire," was to his master.
So, when he sent Dan and his Rangers to Wandong City to handle related matters, he specifically instructed them to pay extra attention to a group of people.
This included Dr. Osborne, Dr. Zack, and Mira.
But when the news returned, Old White received so very troubling information.
Worried that Kael might overthink it, Old White ca to report imdiately:
"Master, there's been a situation in Wandong City."
"What situation?"
Kael, just recovering from the effects of using the map editor and road editor, rubbed his temples and looked at Old White with a frown.
"Do you rember that human girl, Mira, whom you paid great attention to during the first strategy campaign?"
"Yes, what's happened?"
Kael had a deep impression of Mira and had even considered bringing her to the Lord Mansion for special training.
Even if she had little talent, given Kael's current status, he could ensure her a lifeti of comfort.
For no other reason but to lift his spirits.
That was the simple reason.
However, the news Old White delivered left Kael stunned.
"What did you say, Mira is missing?"
A flash of displeasure crossed Kael's eyes: "Did soone target her without our notice?"
Old White shook his head, wearing a peculiar expression:
"No, until the end of this campaign, we had people keeping an eye on her. We can confirm that up until she entered Wandong City, she was safe."
"That shouldn't be possible?" Kael's expression grew more curious at Old White's words: "Did soone in Wandong City target her? Who would be bored enough to harm such a young girl?"
"Previously, I had Dr. Osborne keep an eye on the girl. Those sent by Dr. Osborne reported that nothing happened to Mira before they fell into sleep."
"Doesn't that make it even stranger? Wait…" Kael's brow twitched as he turned to Old White.
Old White's expression was equally grave. He nodded and said: "It should be as you suspect… that girl Mira has continued to survive all this ti.
No, that's not accurate… Lady Mira, due to so unknown reasons, has been alive for over 700 years."
Kael frowned in thought: "Undead?"
"No… Master, Lady Mira is Lady Mira. The undead created by the necrotic toxin are a different matter.
If I'm not mistaken, Lady Mira remains alive, existing sowhere hidden in the world."
"…How long has Wandong City existed? 670 years! Such a long ti, for a human to live this long, what could that an?"
Kael murmured to himself.
Old White was silent for a mont, then softly said: "Like , becoming a legendary figure… or perhaps, an even more terrifying existence, maybe…"
Kael's voice grew hoarse: "A demigod?"
"It's not impossible."
"But… considering the circumstances back then, if I hadn't saved her, she would have soon turned into an undead due to the necrotic virus…"
Kael was perplexed.
Then he carefully recalled his first encounter with Mira.
After a mont's hesitation, he said: "That child's necrosis erupted so quickly… almost as if it sensed my threat?"
aning, in the original tiline, before Mira was killed by the undead, she was saved by soone else.
…
At this ti, in the distant Papal State of Briania.
The current controller of the Holy Hall, Pope phiel, gently flipped through the book in his hands, finally stopping at one entry:
"In the year 472 of the Divine Calendar, Mira Euphemia, then the Saintess of the Dawn Lord Church, stirred up the [Abyssal Blood Incident], a campaign to destroy the Holy Mountain, under the guidance of the Succubus Queen. After this battle, Saintess Euphemia fell into the abyss, and the Papal State of Briania waned from its golden age...
Replaced by the rapid rise and growth of the Bell Federation, ha... the ancestors of that ti were truly useless!"
phiel slowly closed the book and sank into a deep sleep on his bed.
