Hero of Darkness

For the next 2 weeks, a new routine for Kahn and the Generals started.

Unlike before, those areas that didn't have a semi-saint guardian such as the Hiryano region which was protected by the Starrk brothers after Kahn killed Commander Aswala.

Ceril was now the official commander of this region as he broke through to legendary rank and could control his aura to appear that of a semi-saint. Both Starrk brothers who were loyal to Kahn kept aiding him to the best of their abilities.

Blackwall was already the appointed guardian of the Kaldris region after Kassandra left for the capital. Under his strong leadership, this area was fortified and even a legendary rank monster wouldn't be able to do anything here again.

Jugram maintained the law enforcement and development sectors as the main figurehead. Whether it was constructing roads in a city or a village… building facilities for the needy as well as maintaining public order was his responsibility.

Omega handled the military chain of command as the second-highest authority after Kahn himself and even the other semi-saints commanders themselves had to make weekly reports to him.

Ronin as usual handled the information and defense ministry. He now had millions of people within the Verlassen fiefdom and thousand spread across the rest of the Rakos Empire under shell corporations and legit businesses. If he wanted any information or had to spread it… he now had enough manpower and resources to do this job swiftly.

Oliver who returned a few days ago and now seemed even stronger and domineering was left in charge of the air force of the fiefdom and he also handled the transportation department done by flying ships.

Armin handled all the matters related to provisions, medical and pharmaceutical companies under his management as the chairman of the Hippocrates association.

Albestros, as usual, was the main figurehead of the weaponry, artillery and industrial development sector. Without his approval of quality checking, no new product or even a new company in this field would get to start a business as he was the head of the Hephaestus association.

Sirius oversaw all the monetary and assets department of Seven Deadly Sins as the representative of Zeus himself and had become the main treasurer.

As for Kahn himself, he controlled the Finance Ministry, Education Ministry, Public Welfare, Ministry of Agriculture, and Trading sectors such as the imports and exports departments.

All of these sectors greatly affected the economy and living standards of the population. He established new systems and departments such as the regarding the families of the soldiers, the one he promised during his speech a couple of weeks ago.

The reason why he let all the generals take charge of different sectors was because this was also going to be their learning experience if they were to serve Kahn in the long term.

Because not all battles were fought with fists and weapons. Some were done using your mind and money.

Given their capabilities… he was certain that no one would disappoint him either because they inherited some of his qualities.

During the day, Armin would deal with the affairs related to Hippocrates and his personal Ayurveda company and at night, with now upgraded stats and rank, he began Kahn's healing every night when he was sleeping.

The Soul Reformation skill needed Kahn to be in statist so Armin could slowly recover the damage done to his soul after Kahn offered 10% of it in order to save Kassandra Mikealson.

Their new routine and lifestyle carried on for 3 weeks.

But the very next week, all of them were gathered in the main throne hall as if there was a grand ceremony.

Albestros and Sirius finally arrived in the throne hall and following them… were hundreds of Covenant soldiers. All of them pushed and carried big caches and huge chests filled with heavy objects.

"They're ready." spoke Albestros who had been working on a particular task given by Kahn a month ago.

Soon, the covenant soldiers started taking the objects out of them as Kahn and the gang finally received their new gears.

Katanas, Swords, Bows, Scepters, Maces, Daggers, Axes, Giantswords… one by one, a plethora of weapons were revealed to them.

But this wasn't the end.

Soon, everyone received custom-made armors, clothes and accessories perfectly fitting their bodies, and appearance which were also very convenient in case they were to engage in a fight.

All the armors and new weapons available were made from none other than the body of the legendary rank Invimarak monster, the very first legendary rank monster they hunted.

Even the weapons were forged using the extremely strong bones of the creature that Kahn and his forces barely managed to kill by using distractions, surprise attacks and a mythical rank rope named Rudra.

Kahn himself received his new black longcoat with gray outlines and patterns over the sleeves. The inner coat, shirt and pants were designed to suit royalty while the black boots were sound free.

This entire set was crafted by using the skin of the Invimarak which had natural magical and physical damage resistance.

Kahn now looked like a strong, reliable and extremely handsome prince of an empire while subliminally asserting his mysterious and domineering personality.

Based on the appearance… All Kahn needed was an authentic katana and he'd look like a certain Son of Sparda who was always motivated and wanted more power.

The generals on the other end had clothing suitable to their appearance as well as armor and weapons that were made from the bones of the ginormous Invimarak.

Even a small dagger made from it was stronger than a Mythril sword. And on top of it, Albestros had used his skills as an Artificer to be able to have elemental affinity and attack skills that were suitable for every single one of them.

For the next few hours, Albestros performed the Blood-bind ritual for all of them just like he once did with Kahn when he created Lucifer and Drakos Armor for him back in Flavot City.

"What do you think?... Satisfied?" asked the peak grandmaster blacksmith Albestros.

"Yes. But I kind of expected more." spoke Kahn honestly.

"Tch! Looking down on me, are you?

Well… let me show why I'm the number one blacksmith of the entire Rakos Empire." he said with a devilish smirk and gave a command.

"Activate Pendragon Formation!"
