Rise of the Cosmic_Emperor

Those who had invited themselves to the Throne Hall were Melinda, Rita, Marla, Emily, Amelia, and Karmen.

Amelia especially had her eyes on Marla who was seated on Hal's lap and snuggling into his chest with a clear desire to be there instead.

Hal rolled his eyes at their attempts of ganging up on him. Of course, he was showing off... He wouldn't be what he was if his displays were not ostentatious and they all knew that.

Hal could accurately feel the emotions emanating from his women and they ranged from jealousy to admiration. It was mostly a mixture of the two emotions.

There was also pride which was common to them all; Pride for knowing this sort of man and being able to call him theirs.

However, there was a question coming, a question that Hal was not new to hearing but it would always be relevant and needed to be asked,

"So what now?" Melinda asked.

They all had their eyes trained on Hal, wanting guidance.

Hal looked down at Marla who was looking up at him,

"It's pretty straightforward really. The moment the Time-warping Array comes down, we complete the takeover of the Dane Duchy.

It's a simple task of getting rid of all those who have been stationed in the Duchy by the Herons or by anyone who affiliates with their goals.

When this is done and the Duchy is free of their influence, Melinda and I will go to the Duchy capital to complete the takeover of the Duchy which should have been completed before the seclusion.

When that is done and the takeover of the Duchy can truly be considered complete, Emily will return to the Doxon Duchy and rid it of every Haron Influence and she will do so along with Amelia and every other Antonov in the Harem.

"Karmen, you will obviously be spending time marshaling the Blood Knights as their commander. They will be called on a lot all through tur coming battles. The emissaries will also be put under your command for the most part.

The legion is of course be a part of it all but the direction in which they go, I shall leave to you all to decide at your discretion..."

The legion referred to the joint force of every woman in the Harem and their numbers were still growing.

The command of the Legion was Melinda's by hierarchy but it became Rita's in situations where Melinda was unavailable to command.

"Once the Dane Duchy is pacified, it's off to the Dystopian Continent for me for some unfinished business.

While I am gone, you all, and by that, I mean every one and not just the Harem, will be ridding the other three Duchys surrounding the Imperial City.

Every one of those Duchys will be prepared for you so resistance is to be expected but will be futile"

Hal had decided to preserve the sanctity of the Harem space and also allow quick and seamless transport by creating a channel completely separate from the space.

Access to that channel was available to all and was indiscriminate of gender and favor and more based on need and urgency.

Hal ended his giving of directions by telling them all that he had added to their arsenal of powers by granting them the ability to share Ordinances.

I.e Every member of the Harem who already had insight into an Elemental Ordinance could access the insight level of comprehension of any other Elemental Ordinance wielding member of the Harem.

There are technically no limits to the amounts of Elemental Ordinances that any cultivator can comprehend and this Ordinance sharing would give the ladies the opportunity to infinitely widen the range of Ordinances they had access to.

However, the real advantages of Ordinance sharing are only available to those who have already gained insights into Abstract Ordinances.Follow current s on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet - novelenglish.net . bin

You see, Hal remains the only one who can and has gained insights into all six abstract Ordinances and he will go on to be the only one who can and will become a paragon in all abstract Ordinances and he cannot share that ability with his women.

However, with Ordinance sharing, they could experience that feeling.

Hal did make sure to preface the news of this new ability with the fact that, as they had not personally gained insight into those other Ordinances, their use of it will not be the same/real.

It will look as though they were using borrowed power, similar to how Svetlana looked when she was using her Artifact to manipulate time.

Even with that though, the idea that they had access to ordinances besides their own resonated very well with the women.

They had a conference of sorts where they expressed solidarity and encouraged one another to take the comprehension of personal Ordinances seriously as, without that degree of seriousness, the Ordinance sharing ability would be useless.

During that conference, Emily set up a desk, and on that desk, she placed a map of the Haron Continent which the women took to referring to all through their meeting. They especially pointed at the four Duchys surrounding the Imperial City.

The Time-warping Dome finally reached its limit and came down which was followed by the territory getting spat out of the dome of obscurity that had been around it.

It was a curious sight for the camps of experts surveilling the area.

They had surrounded what was considered to be the area of suspicion and they were quickly separated by the territory which took back its rightful place in the Nexus world.

"By the GODS" yelled one of the experts but he was quick to arm himself and so was every other expert... Alas, they were not even allowed to attempt to defend themselves before they were cut down by the horde of Blood knights with every single one of them possessing the wings of a fiendish demon.

Every Blood knight had received upgrades that saw them having the complete sets of abilities available to a fiend.

With their fiendish bloodlines gotten from Hal's Devil Bloodline which Hal had improved to the maximum through Infinity, the purity of all demonic bloodlines was now as much at the peak as they could be.

Every one of the Fiends descending from the sky was armed with the massive and dangerous Armament that was the Broadsword known as Executioner... The camping experts never had a chance.

Before they got hit, they had all felt despair deep in their soul due to the collective mass of fiendish pressure from above.

The manner in which those experts were killed was gory and as expressive as possible. It was overkill.

Not one of those camping experts was powerful enough to contend with any of the Blood Knights and could have been very easily given precise and simple deaths but the Blood Knights acted as though they were sending a message.

They all reveled in the blood essence that they reaped and the excitement they gave off was enough to make someone consider the possibility that they might feel starved for blood essence which they had not enjoyed for hundred-warped years.

Karmen was flying unsupported by wings in mid-air and watched with a light smile but while she was not making use of her fiendish wings, she was sporting the red horns of her demonic bloodline...

Beside her were Lillian and Olivia both in complete fiendish forms even though they possess flight being one-star saints.

Once the Blood Knights were done, Karmen raised her weapon in command, and they all set out to free all cities and regions of the Dane Duchy, that supported the Sapphirine Cult, from the oppression of the Harons championed by the powerful families in the Duchy capital.

The evangelists who had been known to cause a nuisance to the oppressors with heralds of the Sapphirine Prince's coming judgment returned and more witness to that judgment.

The Blood knights never lingered anywhere... The clean-up was meant to be fast...

The evangelists who had risen with heralds of the judgment had all of course been granted access to the private channel, previously the Harem space, and that was how they had avoided capture so far.

They also served as anchors for the Blood knights to travel to all target cities and regions with the use of the private channel.

The Blood Knights would drop in, kill all oppressors and move on.

They moved in an orderly fashion with their ears trained for every single order from their commander.

Wherever the Blood Knights went, the people cheered and then bowed in worship to the Sapphirine Prince with strengthened faith that in turn strengthened Hal's hold on the Duchy.

Speaking of Hal, he and Melinda arrived at the Dane Duchy Palace to see that a certain fellow had returned home,

"Hello cousin," Cirk Dane said with a smirk and with his hands spread in what was a welcoming gesture but definitely had a cynical side.

Melinda had a neutral expression on her face and if Cirk had known what was coming and the wicked joy Melinda was feeling at the sight of him, he would have gotten the hell away from there immediately and had the slimmest of chances of getting away.

Alas, he was oblivious.

Poor Him.
