The next day Glaze sat down as he decided to spend his magic points and skill points.
*Where do you want to spend your points?*
Two magic points in Holy Destruction Magic and one skill point in Level Drain Skill
*Holy Destruction Magic: Level - 7*
*You can now cover your body with destruction magic using it as a weapon or protect yourself from attacks*
*Level Drain Skill: Level - 2 | You can now drain 20% of the Levels of all enemies you kill*
*God Blood - 7%*
*Your mana is increased to 70,000*
*Godly body strengthened*
*Mana recovery rate increased to 700/second*
Glaze felt the increased god blood pouring through his veins and his physical strength increase once again and it became a lot easier to control destruction magic.

After a few days Glaze got a message from Marzia that the work was done, he went to his newly built palace for the first time to check how things were going.
His palace wasn't anything too extraordinary like the rest of the architecture in this city, this kingdom wasn't famous for its architectural skills after all. It was just another palace from a fantasy story with the only striking feature being it was made from purple stones.
As he walked in he was greeted by his "Kingsguard" who were for now just acting as normal guards, he made them train for the last couple of days by forcing them to kill monsters while testing their magic, giving them some pointers and replenishing their mana with magic crystals , this cycle went on again and again and these guards managed to level up to Level 13 in just a few days, they had been stuck in the bottleneck for so long, with some proper training , magic and magic crystals they were able to level up easily.
He walked in to see everyone hustling bustling, it felt like he was in an office from his previous life, he walked in and met Marzia who was busy managing everyone's tasks.
"My Lord, good to see you again," said she as she bowed.
"Good to see you Marzia, how is everything going?" asked he as he took in his surroundings
"The Administrative and Logistic Divisions are set up , basic necessities and clothes and armor and other furniture are done for your servants, though they were quite reluctant to actually use anything given to them ,you may have to talk them yourself as they wouldn't listen to anyone else" said she as she sighed clearly stressed out from this work.
"The information-gathering team is set up, we have a trainer from Elsenia who is an expert in that field and she has agreed to teach any recruits, you just have to select the candidates now," said she continuing.
"Because we did so much at a scale we managed to get a discount and when people realized its the Hero who is paying they gave a bigger discount, the total expenditure of everything came down to 80 Million Gold," said she as she handed Glaze the receipt of all the expenses.
"You have done an amazing job Marzia, you are far more capable than I thought you were, managing to get this done in just a few days, I wonder why they just didn't send you as an aide right away," said Glaze impressed.
"Uh, haha , you are praising me too much my lord , there is still a lot of work i need to get done , if you need anything let me know , I shall take my leave" said she awkwardly as she left.
Glaze proceeded to the garden area where all the slaves were held, as they saw him coming they all stood up straight, afraid to anger him, they were still in their tattered clothes as they refused to listen to anyone else afraid they would offend their master.
"These clothes, rooms and other basic amenities are yours, you are free to use it," said he looking towards the group of 20 women. The Slave Magic did not actually control their mind or hypnotize them, just gave him the ability to kill them with a thought from anywhere.
"I-Is this really ours?" said one woman with fear as she looked at these expensive clothes and armor, she had only seen from a distance before not believing they were hers now.
"Yes they are yours," said Glaze with a smile, this became more of a headache than he realized.
"You two Level 7, come forward," said he looking towards those two women who were the most composed.
Everyone including those two was a little scared as they were called out, as they stepped forwards Glaze asked them their name.
"We don't have a name, Master," said the both looking down.
System, show me their stats again.

Glaze looked at the one who had the talent of Assassination as he said" I'll give you a name then, I name you Erebi" thought he as he based the name on Erebus, the Greek God of Darkness. As he looked at the other who had the talent of speech and charisma he thought she would be perfect to lead the information gathering and intelligence organization, " And I name you Athena" said he naming her after the Greek Goddess of Wisdom.
They appeared shocked as they were named
He walked towards Athena as he said " Take this armor and clothing" as he personally gave her her armor and clothes "You will form and lead the Organization Celeste, go and talk to Marzia and start your training" said he as he looked at the remaining women standing behind just staring curiously at what was happening.
He used the system to find out the talents of all the remaining women who were all very low leveled, he picked 9 who were talented in Speech and related skills and pulled them aside, "You will now work under Athena, get your clothing and armor, and start training , this palace is your home from today" said he as he looked at them.
They bowed and left with Athena to meet their teacher and were still under shock that they got such a life they never dreamed of.
Now, only 10 people remained, "Erebi , you will form the secret organization Medusa, your job will be assassination, all of you have a talent for assassination and related skills and I will train you to become the most terrifying assassins to have ever existed" said he as he looked into their eyes.
They were shocked, they did not think they had any talent, they were just weaklings and dregs of society in their eyes who had no value. But when they heard the Hero say they had talent there was a spark of hope lighting up in their soul
"W-will you really make us strong? Can I become strong?" asked Erebi as she looked into Glaze's eyes for the first time with hope.
"Yes, I can make you strong, so strong you can kill everyone in your path, everyone who wronged you will die under your blade, if you follow me," said Glaze as he pulled back the long hair of Erebi and looked into her eyes with a smile.
"I will follow you, Master, I will follow you to the depths of the underworld, I will train hard and won't disappoint you," said she with a determined look
"Very well, take this armor, this is just for you as you are the leader of Medusa and the strongest out of everyone," said Glaze as he took out the Divine Assassin Armor, Boots, and Blade. As these Master Stage weapons appeared they had a terrifying aura but it was not all suppressing like the other Master Stage weapons but only to those who noticed it or looked at it, it was very peculiar.
As Erebi looked at this Master Stage weapon and equipment she was shocked, not sure if she should take something so incredibly expensive but then she looked into the calm eyes of Glaze and took the armor, boots, and blade.
"Equip it," said Glaze
As she equipped the Divine Assassin's Armor, Divine Assassin's Boots and Divine Assassin's Blade her entire aura vanished, it felt like she didn't exist to the rest of the people even though they could see her right in front of them , Glaze smiled as he looked at this pitch-black armor with purple highlights. She truly looked like the merchant of death in this armor.
"You won't be able to use these properly without this , take this" said Glaze as he took out the Assassination Magic Book that was pitch black and had a dark aura around it , as she took it out of his hands and started inspecting it he turned towards the rest of the 9 women who were shocked and amazed looking at their older sister, "So, are you willing to follow me ?" asked he.
"Yes, we will train hard and kill your enemies, Master," said they as they came forward.
"This is all for you," said Glaze as he took out the Assassin's Armor, Blade, and Boots.
They came forward excitedly as they took these and started to equip them. As they came together they truly looked like a terrifying group of assassins, without any actual skill yet of course.
"Take this Assassin Magic Book, and take this crest to identify yourself, it is imbued with my magic so it can't be faked," said he as he gave them the Magic Books and the crest which had a 9 headed serpent in purple with a black background and a golden outline as it flowed with his mana.
"Start experimenting by yourself for today, I will show you the basics tomorrow," said Glaze as he walked out.
"Yes, Master," said they as they bowed in unison.
