……

The trading hall was like a stock exchange. A screen hung in the air, displaying various fields of information as numbers blinked with different colours. Under the big screen were Warlocks of different ranks looking hurried as they whispered to the staff behind the counters.

Every organisation had a place like this. It was similar to a hall where missions were issued, and handled part of the exchange of goods. Leylin was very familiar with such places, but never before had he seen one this large. One message on the screen was quite embarrassing, “Rank 1 Giant Kemoyin Serpent Warlock with a decent bloodline. Selling the opportunity for a night’s irrigation of seeds. Price: 1000 contribution points. Additional requirement: The female’s appearance must be approved by me.”

Leylin didn’t know what to say. Although he knew that after the passing of generation after generation, most Warlock families will have their bloodlines thin out. Exceptions to this rule do exist, but are very rare. Even among Giant Kemoyin Serpent Warlocks, there are those whose bloodlines are weak enough to match Black Horrall Snake or even Huge Mankestre Snake Warlocks. Therefore, Warlock families generally search for those with pure bloodlines to improve their own fading ones. There are some weaker Giant Kemoyin Serpent Warlocks who live on this income. Although it’s difficult for a Warlock to sire a child, it’ll happen eventually if they try often enough.

“Ohh this? You do have a very pure bloodline, Leylin. Although there is some problem, that is when you compare it to other Crystal Phase Rank 3 Warlock, otherwise compared to other Rank 3 Warlock you are the best option in the open. For a declining family you are still a very valuable addition. The female Warlocks will go crazy over you! be careful! but then again with your strength no could force you.” Robin said with a teasing smile.

“Try as they may!” Leylin said assuredly. Leylin didn’t care about all this nonsense, he won’t be giving out his descendants to just anybody and if one were to talk about just having sex, the he won’t mind but he won’t care especially either. He already has plenty of beautiful women surrounding him.

Robin looked Leylin up and down, and nodded to him. “Yeah, Based on your current strength, there isn’t many Female Warlocks in the clan that can actually capture you.”

“Robin! What a coincidence!” Suddenly, a woman’s voice rose up behind them. Robin turned back and saw a female Warlock with long black hair creating a divide in the crowd as she approached them. While occasionally eyeing Leylin, there was an undisguised hint of excitement on her face.

“Who is this handsome fellow? We haven’t met before, have we?” The aura of this female Warlock was the same as Robin’s, their spiritual force have both reached the Hydro Phase. She was also a well-built beauty, with a charming appearance and fair skin.

“This is Marquis Leylin, a new member of the clan who is under Mentor Gilbert’s tutelage!” Robin said with a smile on his face but he felt uneasy.

He transmitted to Leylin, “This is one of the female Warlocks I just told you about—Blood Serpent Miranda! Fortunately she is just hydro phase so, she can’t do anything to you. ”

“Hello, Marquis Miranda!” Leylin knew her status and gave her a salute. Currently, Leylin wasn’t walking around with a stick up his ass like in the past, he understood that modesty is also a form of strength and this could do one no harm, as long as you don’t bend so much that others might stomp on you!

“Marquis Leylin! So is this the first time you’ve come here? Why don’t you follow me? I can show you around, and we can even go to my manor later where I show you the enthusiasm of our female Warlocks!”

Miranda’s eyes shone with excitement as she surveyed Leylin and ran her tongue along her lips. This further increased her charm to the point that few males could resist her.

“My apologies!!” Leylin denied. He wasn’t interested in her, actually he felt a little repulsed by her.

“Five thousand contribution points! Five thousand contribution points for one night! Deal?”

Miranda offered a price without any hesitation, and the Warlocks around inhaled a deep breath. It seemed like five thousand contribution points was quite the number.

“Get Lost!” Leylin’s face turned solemn. This woman needs to be put in place, although Leylin doesn’t like trouble he could use this as an opportunity to flaunt his power and establish his dominance.

“So that’s how you want it. Then let me tame you in my own way!” Miranda felt no fear for Leylin, and instead a foxy expression appeared on her face. She didn’t knew about Leylin strength and even if she could make a guess, her bloodline started to flare and acted up making her unstable. Robin was worried because he knew that this could spiral out of control pretty quickly, but he didn’t interfere because he knew Leylin true strength.

“Right here?” Miranda’s eyes narrowed into slits, a dangerous aura bursting forth. Dense scales appeared on her body in the shape of flowers which made her even more alluring. Leylin looked on unimpressed as he let her do her thing, he didn’t even need to use his innate spell to defeat her.

“Miranda! Stop!” Another clear female voice arose, and a red snake flew over.

“You!” Miranda waved her hands. Countless black wisps appeared around her, bumping into the red snake. Robin ended up having to repress the following explosion, but even so many Warlocks were pushed down by the aftermath of the clash.

Leylin looked at the source of the sound. The one who attacked with the red snake just now was also a female Warlock, her long black hair cascading to her waist like a waterfall. She possessed a voluptuous body that was in stark contrast to her saintly face.

“This is Marquis Freya! I’ve never heard about rumors of her capturing male warlocks, but her family’s bloodline has been declining in recent years. They are looking for a suitable male to marry into their family!” Robin transmitted to Leylin who currently could only keep silent.

“Freya! If you want a man, there are plenty in my castle that I can gift you. This one is mine!”

Apparently, Miranda had already considered Leylin her own prey. Leylin was annoyed but he could see her disturbed savage eyes and decided to let it slide, he understood the problem of bloodline emotions so, he didn’t put any emphasis to her words but she is treading a fine line. Leylin could transform from an understanding person to overbearing monster in a moment.

“Miranda, you slut! I’m not here for romance. I’m here to ask him to join my family!” Freya retorted sharply.

“No way! I saw him first!”

“So what?” With the argument escalating, the danger around these two women grew and everyone around backed away.

Leylin stood between them, feeling amused and as well as annoyed. Rather than asking for his own opinion, these two were fighting over him like he was a victory item.”You guys continue, I have other things to tend to, then spectating two crazy woman showdown.”

“You?” Miranda smiled faintly, “Weaklings have no right to an opinion. Even your Mentor wouldn’t say anything about this. I have an elder backing me as well.”

On the other side, Freya expressed her silent agreement.

“I think some people just don’t understand words, then so be it!” Leylin clenched his fist and sharp bones protruded out of his knuckles, his air changed and as a cold venomous Black light energy enveloped the duo.

Streams of black light shot at the two women, containing within them the horrifying toxins of a Kemoyin Serpent. Meanwhile, Intimidating Gaze, his rank 3 bloodline spell, shot forth.

Although similar waves shot forth from the two women, they retreated the moment they came in contact with Leylin’s domain.

“An Intimidating Gaze this powerful?” Robin looked at the weaker Warlocks who had fallen to the ground. “It seems I have underestimated him, even with some difference in quality in reference to similarly ranked Warlock, Leylin doesn’t lack in ability at all!”

With a flash of black light, two distinct sounds rung out. A red whip in Miranda’s hands cracked into two, and Freya retreated a few steps as a red ring in her hands was crushed into a powder.

These were the weapons they released as soon as Leylin attacked but they were useless as the attack not only destroyed their magic artifacts but also injured them.

“Crystal Phase!”

Both women looked in surprise and horror, as their blood run out of control. This suppression was very intense and they couldn’t even retaliate. They were injured mildly from his aura alone, what kinda concept was that. They are both Hydro Phase Rank 3 Warlock, this shouldn’t be the case.

Leylin stared them down from his chin slightly elevated, “It would be better if you understand the consequences of annoying me. Let’s go!” Leylin raised his both clenched fist with his horrifying bones in their direction and let a few drops of toxic bile spill from their tip. The ground underneath began to rot as soon as the poison touched the ground.

Leylin retreated his hands as he turned around and left, he cannot do anything much to them. They both have an elder behind them so, this was the limit of his aggression. But Leylin didn’t particularly care, as long as they understand his meaning.

Robin continued to tour Leylin around the area, as he finally reached a villa.

“This is it, this manor belongs to you!”

After passing through a series of buildings, Robin led Leylin to the front of a big garden courtyard.

At the entrance sat two enormous ash-gray stone serpents. Faint energy undulations were emitting from them. They were evidently not just ornamental.

Kubler was standing at the front of the gate, dressed like a butler. All of his subordinates were also there dressed up differently to welcome him. Upon seeing Leylin, Their eyes lit up and all of them immediately stepped up and bowed respectfully. “My Lord!”

Robin handed Leylin a pink crystal. “My men have sent the decoration details to Kubler. This is the master key and identification crystal!”

“I assume you will have many matters to handle since you have just arrived. Just remember to be at the same meeting place tomorrow afternoon. Sir Gilbert will see you then…” He stepped out after giving his last instructions.

Leylin was now not only a Marquis of the Ouroboros Clan, but also a student of Duke Gilbert. His future was truly bright and immeasurable.

Kubler was naturally filled with enthusiasm as he intended to be a good servant to Leylin. “In this manor, other than your personal master bedroom, there is also a study room, a laboratory and an arena for negative energy. There’s a bloodline purifying pool, a quiet field of sculptures… In addition, there are more than enough specially prepared facilities meant for use by Magi who are 3rd rank and below…..”

Kubler clearly had been briefed before. During the introduction, he spoke with much familiarity.

In the study room.

Gilbert unrolled the document in his hand and analysed it closely.

“Hmm, according to what Leylin has revealed, his bloodline is that of Norco Curadu Sfar!?”

“Yes, sir!” Robin replied respectfully.

“This Norco Curadu Sfar is registered in our records. It belonged to a marquis of the Kemoyin bloodline who went missing during an exploration. Looks like it had been disseminated to the south coast, and he also left behind a descendant…”

“The south coast! I travelled there when I was younger, it was a barren place…” Gilbert sighed.

To a Magus of the central continent, the south coast and Twilight Zone were poor backwater regions. The energy in their atmosphere was extremely lacking and their resources were limited, which was the reason they’d left.

“As for the Norco Curadu Sfar Warlock, he is considered my senior! For Leylin to acquire such an inheritance, and the corresponding accuracy of events in the timeline, it is clear what will come next!”

“Yes, our men from the south coast have sent over some information! ” Robin nodded his head. Robin couldn’t distinguish about the missing part of Leylin life because he ultimately regarded as him being in the subterranean world, from where he emerged. He couldn’t have fathom that in such a small span Leylin could achieve so much success.

“It is a pity that he only acquired part of the inheritance and didn’t lay his hands on the fourth grade of the Kemoyin’s pupil!” Gilbert sighed, knowing very well and viewing the status of Leylin from the cinema room.

If he had the full inheritance of a Morning Star Magus, perhaps it might have triggered his interest. However Leylin had obviously inherited only the external portion, hence he lost all passion.

“But how did he reach Crystal phase so fast!” Robin asked.

“There is many remarkable and amazing things in this world, he may have gotten his hands on something nefarious but the end result isn’t much better since it impact ones talent, aptitude and in this case Bloodline as well. If he were to give such an information out of his own volition then it’s okay, either way it’s fine.” Gilbert wasn’t much interest in the secrets of a mere Rank 3 because to him, Leylin power could be contributed to the inheritance because he doesn’t knew what he got, and his method of increasing his strength so fast, is just plain stupid to Gilbert.

“I agree with you!” Robin echoed.

For Magi of the south coast and Twilight Zone, even if they were to rise in rank to a Morning Star Magus, they would still be lacking in comparison to their peers from the central continent.

There were many advanced and sophisticated experiments that could only be implemented on the central continent. Moreover, a single Magus’ lone research would never be on par with the accumulated research of a huge group.

“Since there are no problems, let’s admit him! The Clan has not had any new blood for a long time!” Gilbert let out another sigh.

Warlocks and Magi were created differently. Not only did they need innate skill with the soul, they needed to meet the required concentration of bloodline. Warlock bloodlines tend to dilute over the generations, hence the first and second generation’s bloodline were the purest and they held the most accomplishments. Those who came after would find it difficult to surpass their success.

Even if bloodline mutations occurred, such cases were rare and random. The probability of success was also pathetic.

Many of the famous Warlock clans of the ancient period did not perish due to external enemies, but instead due to their own bloodlines gradually withering away until they faded from the world of Magi.

This was a problem of the current Ouroboros Clan as well.

After a few days, Leylin finally got his hands on the item he coveted most— The fourth grade of Kemoyin’s Pupil.

Since he had already achieved rank 3 as a Giant Kemoyin Serpent Warlock, He was entitled to it. And since being are a student of Gilbert, He can give it to Leylin directly!

After he received the crystal ball, the A.I. Chip immediately recorded the fourth grade of the Kemoyin’s Pupil meditation technique and started to deduce a comparison with the current version, optimizing many abilities.

Because it was as such, this opportunity was even more precious!

Thereafter, Leylin would be at Gilbert’s manor, receiving his teachings on foundation subjects. Although Leylin had already learnt most of it, the content from the southern coast, Beast World aand Twilight Zone differed from that of the central continent and Gilbert aimed to acknowledge and reverse these discrepancies.

Even though it was just basic foundational knowledge, with Gilbert’s way of narration Leylin gained even more insight from the content.

In addition, Gilbert had placed his personal library in a separate concealed room, allowing Leylin to browse the books freely. Content that he needed to memorize were those relating to history and magic

“Introduction to dimension theory!”

“Space communication knowledge!”

“Research on the boundary of the stars!”

Leylin as usual, approached the concealed room and picked out three thick books that he had marked. After flipping to a specific page, he started to read.

With the illumination of the unceasing flame in the concealed room, Leylin was focused and devout. These were qualities that all researchers should have.

Finally, Gilbert approached Leylin and after seeing his intrest in interdimensional travel, Gilbert invited him to participate in his experiment.

Only when one have reached the status of a Morning Star Magus will they be able to venture out into the cosmos because only the massive spiritual force of Morning Star Magi can withstand the consumption as one step over. In addition, many dangers in various worlds are unable to be dealt with by regular Magi. At the very least, they need to be at the Morning Star realm.

Through Gilbert’s explanations, Leylin found out some fundamental information on how to use the cosmic gate. He knew about the concept but his actually participation in the field would be amazing for his studies. Leylin has already gained some information about Astral Gate beforehand in Beast World but he lacks the fundamentals.

This experiment of crossing over to different worlds consumed a lot of energy, and there were rules when it came to transporting objects. In general, receiving information through spiritual force consumed the least energy, but the moment any substance was to be transported, the consumption would increase several times. If a Magus were to go over, the energy required was tremendous, to the point that it might even cause Morning Star Magi to exhaust themselves!

In reality, in both ancient and recent times, there were so many Morning Star Magi who had consumed large amounts of resources and energy only to find a desolate world, ending up with nothing despite their efforts.

The cosmic gate had always been a place where fortune and danger coexisted.

The Magi in the central continent seldom travelled over. They preferred to send out a few spiritual force coordinates, as well as use things like teleportation spell formations.

This was similar to setting down fish bait, and then waiting for the other side to accept it.

Though the chances were so small that they were below one in ten thousand, there was a real possibility of intelligent beings receiving the spiritual force tokens that were floating in spatial cracks.

Next was to bewitch these beings and then gather information regarding these other dimensions and determine their coordinates. If this information was determined valuable enough, Morning Star Magi would then open the true cosmic gate and then travel there in great numbers, seizing control of the dimension!

Leylin was very eager to participate in this experiment, he has already scanned and recorded some formation of Cosmic travel but Gilbert own research in the field would fill in many gaps and enable him to stimulate his knowledge further.

…..

The wind blew, bringing about with it a refreshing feeling.

Leylin rode on a horse, looking at the scenery on both sides. Great numbers of farms joined to form a large field which many farmers were working on.

At the two sides of the roads, purification towers could be seen everywhere.

These were specifically to remove the unwittingly emanated radiation pollution from the bodies of Magi. This allowed regular humans ad Magi to exist in harmony.

A Marquis of the central continent naturally had more gold than one in the south coast. The range of his territory was even comparable to a large kingdom of the south coast.

Of course, for Leylin who had the whole Beast world and Twilight Zone under his thumb it wasn’t too eye catching of a deal.

Meanwhile, Kubler and the rank 2 Warlock’s expressions were full of envy. All the other servants were also looking around in intrest. The two Brigadier Stage (Vapour Phase Rank 3) Beast tamers, Cole and Roderick stood straight on both sides of the group of Lita, Ivy and Lancy. They were like dedicated bodyguards, quite frankly they are the most simple minded of all the Generals and Commanders of the Church, and also the most open minded and trusting. If it weren’t for their descendants they would have also joined the dead group of Leylin opposers and died with honor.

Their good nature is the reason why Sheshnaag sent the two with all the collected wealth of Beast World to Leylin side. They immediately become good friends with others and took their work very seriously.

Leylin looked around his territory with a calm gaze as the produce from the vast area in this territory was turned into resources for Magi, it would be a huge source of revenue for regular rank 3 Warlocks.

“Kubler, look for a few skilled administrators and build a governing structure. Take help from Anna if need be, she has much experience in the field. Oh, and also, for my seal of nobility, design it like my secret imprint.” Leylin instructed casually.

Kubler lowered his head respectfully, expressing his understanding.

After the Ouroboros Clan had conferred all this to Leylin, he had now gained authority over the life and death of all beings in his land. He was even allowed to make his own army and kingdom.

In the central continent, commoners could be forced to bring their own food when conscripted, being forced into labour. They themselves would have to take care of logistics after wars.

Leave alone food, Leylin was even giving out a pay. This made him benevolent beyond compare.

“Name the castle ‘Mahakaal Castle.’ Gather a few scholars and architects. After the design is done, bring it to me.” Leylin was not in the least concerned about these small matters, giving Kubler free reign.

What he really paid attention to was at the bottom, “Beside Mahakaal Castle, I am planning to create a Magus Tower.”

“Magus Tower!” Kubler beside him immediately gasped. This would be insanely expensive.

“Yes, and it should be made with the highest of standards!” In Leylin’s eyes, Mahakaal Castle was a place where regular people would place their focus. This Magus Tower would be the his true residence. He had many experiment and use of such a place and this construction was extremely important for his breakthrough.

Though constructing it at the headquarters would net him technological support as well as resources, he would have to incorporate it into the joint defense system.

Leylin had far too many secrets. How could he stand to reveal them to anyone else?

In addition, a Magus Tower was a prerequisite to experiments on cosmic gates. Hence, It was an set in stone kinda decision for him.

Leylin had milked the entirety of his reigned areas for all its worth. Though it was far from the wealth that the central continent had, when all of it was concentrated on one person, it was still rather terrifying.

His magic crystals had filled multiple spatial ring, and he also had all types of precious materials. He had many rare and extinct resources too. This was enough to cover the cost of constructing a Magus Tower, and this would be no ordinary tower, but one constructed based on the highest standards!

In addition, high-grade Magus Towers would be able to boost a Magus’ own strength, and were a place where many experiments would be conducted. Hence, many high-ranked Magi would plan to make their own Magus Towers.

However, there were few who could afford to make one themselves without feeling the burden it would put on them. Others would need to live and accumulate resources for hundreds of years before they could even dream of regular Magus Towers. As for top-grade towers? They could only dream about those.

Under observation by overseers touting whips and clubs, groups of adult slaves transported large pieces of granite across the lands.

The granite had been divided into equal sizes from a nearby stone quarry and was then transported here, being piled up to to form a large castle.

Leylin’s Mahakaal Castle had two layers of city walls as defence. The outer layer was slightly lower than the inner wall, and there were many sentry towers, watchtowers and the like.

Outside the Mahakaal Castle, there was also a channel forming a very wide moat.

The building was mostly constructed by piling up granite. Near the end, he would invite Magi proficient at manipulating earth-elemental energy particles to reinforce the structure and fill the parts between the granite, forming a large body. After that, he would get a few renowned sculpting masters to do more work. Although Leylin himself could also do it, since after the integration with the other Bloodline he has gained affinity of many other element too, but it would be better to not bring attention to himself. He wasn’t very adept to the other elements anyways.

After the construction was done, it would definitely not lose out to the grandeur of common nobility.

To complete the Mahakaal Castle, many slaves and the people that Leylin had recruited would put all their effort into working day in and out.

There was also the structure of the Magus Tower that Leylin had designed himself.

The entire Magus Tower would be constructed with blurite metal, which was a stable alloy created by Magi. There would be a total of three layers underground, with laboratories, summoning and binding rooms, and a huge negative energy reactive pool at the bottom-most layer.

On the ground, the first floor would be the living room. The second would be the master bedroom and library. The third would be the Magus garden and ecological laboratory. The fourth would be the storage room, and the highest would have a positive energy reactive pool that would be the counterpart to the underground negative energy reactive pool.

Almost all energy particles had positive and negative properties. This sort of energy pool would seize countless energy particles and be a costly structure that could gather energy.

The construction of the Magus Tower is a large project. With the people Leylin has hired now, They can only make some preparations. After the Mahakaal Castle is completed next year, Leylin would live there and watch over the building of the Magus Tower.

In Leylin’s plans, the Magus Tower was something long term that would take more than a decade to complete.

The blood, sweat and resources put into it could not be calculated, but after all was said and done, he would have a solid foundation in the region.

The amplifying effect that Magus Towers could provide for Magi was considerably frightful, especially for a high-grade building like this.

During the construction of his castle and magic tower, Leylin stayed in the headquarters and one day he finally participated in the cosmic experiment.

It wasn’t much of an experience but he got to record the formation design and also understand the working behind the construction. Afterwards he meet with Lucian, and Kesha, they are both his senior fellow students.

Lucian was an old geezer who was in the Crystal Phase. As for Kesha, she too was a rank 3 and Leylin gave both of them a respectful greeting.

Lucian and Kesha extended a warm welcome to their new junior before leaving. Both of their spiritual forces had been exhausted considerably and they needed to rest and restore their strength. especially Lucian; he was almost seriously hurt in the process hence he was in a dull mood.
