Adriana already had 13 subordinates with Level 15~35, indeed, they are elites, but… they are quite common to say the least.
Not to mention that they never went through proper training, they only know how to fight and what gives them a lot of advantage would be their combat experiences.
But Adriana has the thought of creating a huge group of Elites initially, where she will later turn it into a real powerful army as hell!
When the first Level 150 rises among them, that's when Adriana will start her main plans, which of course are still being formulated.
She still needs to summon Luria, Ikiria and Lily, they will give her a greater range of information and decisions, as this will also be their future, Adriana cannot decide everything thinking it is the best.
So the 17 recruits, Adriana didn't care much about their Level, the important thing will be the age, how smart the person is, along with their talent.
Adriana wants women under 35, if they are as strong as Mell, Adriana can make exceptions, but the rest can be ignored.
Already her intelligence, Adriana will do several simple tests, to understand their knowledge base, reaction and how well they adapt to combat.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, will be the talent!
Adriana will only need to touch and inspect her using her Mana, it will be enough to get an idea of how good her adaptation to Mana is and how much she would progress just relying on her talent.
But of course, Adriana wants to recruit 12 women for combat, while she will recruit 5 for the support team.
She can do all this work herself, just give her a few weeks, but, she cannot become the Doctor, Cook, Blacksmith and other services, she is the leader and must keep up appearances.
So at the beginning, Adriana went to a forge, like the Village of the Hunters, it is obvious that she has many blacksmith shops for the repair and manufacture of new weapons and armor.
Adriana arrived at the scene and went after a very tall and well-built woman.
"Ophelia, I believe?" - Asked Adriana calmly.
Ophelia held a hammer and looked at her, snorted and said. - "What you want?"
"I want to recruit her into my Mercenary group!" - Adriana said bluntly.
"I'm not interested, find another one!" - Said Ophelia snorting disdainfully and going back to hammering the iron.
"Sorry, I'm a persistent woman and I really want you!" - Adriana said smiling.
Clang!
A loud clang sounded and Ophelia dropped the hammer, then lunged at Adriana with a fierce glare.
"Get out of here you shitty bitch, or I'll break every bone in your body!" - She said fiercely.
"Have you heard of a certain woman who will teach her subordinates the secrets of Mana and Aura?" - Adriana asked calmly, which finally made Ophelia stop all her aggression, but soon she snorted.
"Even so, I don't fight!" - Ophelia said fiercely.
"I don't want you to fight, I know you have a perfect body for that, but I understand that those beautiful muscles are made for hammering iron not skulls!" - Adriana said calmly.
"Then if you understand, stop disturbing me!" - Said Ophelia snorting.
"It would be a shame, someone as talented as you are, to waste your talents being an ordinary blacksmith, without the opportunity to become a Magic Smith!" - Adriana said, nodding her head sadly.
Ophelia thought this was absurd and didn't listen.
"Okay, enough kidding, looks like you have to be direct! Serve me as the Blacksmith and Armor of my Mercenary Group, in return I will teach you how to use Mana and in the future Aura, as well as how to use them to create Magic Items!" - Adriana said calmly.
Ophelia crossed her arms, then said. - "If you were a Dwarf, I would believe it, but you are not!"
Adriana chuckled, before taking off her shirt and getting her torso bare, showing off her beautiful muscles, Ophelia looked at this and it didn't bother her, she is also showing off her large breasts which are much bigger than Adriana's.
So Adriana said. - "If I forge a Magic Sword here and now, will you follow me?"
"If you create a Magic Sword, I become your whore!" - Said Ophelia snorting in disdain.
"I just want your loyalty and not your body, but I admit it's tempting!" - Adriana said laughing and winking at her.
…
About 2 hours later, Ophelia had her jaw dropped, while a sword sat on the anvil, emitting a mystical glow, which slowly faded away.
"It's still a little warm, but I don't think the heat will affect you." - Adriana said calmly and Ophelia grabbed the sword.
She carefully analyzed the edge of the blade, felt its perfect weight, she was shocked that this was possible, she knows that Pureblood Dwarves have their secret techniques, but she had never heard of humans having something like this.
In fact she has heard of Human and Elf Mages capable of something like this, but it is through Magic Enchantments on already created equipment, but this... she personally saw the sword being forged and when the last hammer blow was given, the result was a glow intense and even though she wasn't an Aura Mage or Warrior, Ophelia felt the Mana lightly and understood that the sword was more than it appeared.
And now, that sharp edge, the resistance, everything indicated to him that this sword that was created in 2 hours, is superior by several degrees to her greatest creation!
"Are you… going to teach me this?" Ophelia asked in shock, a slight tremor in her voice.
"Yes, but it will cost you a lot!" - Adriana said calmly.
"… what?" - Ophelia asked, even excited, she is still thinking very carefully.
"I will be teaching you very advanced techniques of practicing Mana and Aura, only then will you be able to create Magic Items like the one I just created and I can guarantee you, what I will be teaching you is something that even Royal Families would be willing to pay all their damned money for. national treasure to have, even selling half of your princesses for a share of what I will be teaching you would not be an exaggeration." - Adriana said calmly and Ophelia was shocked.
"Understand that what you just saw is not all I have to show you, had the materials used been better and with more Mana support I could have created a blade so sharp that splitting this anvil in half without injecting any Mana would have been something simple!" - Adriana said full of confidence and finally decided to go to the main point.
"I will make a magical contract with you, forbidding you to teach what you learn from me to others, unless I allow it, initially you will have to work for 10 years, after these 10 years, you will be able to choose whether you will continue with me or follow your path, but the magical contract will remain in effect, preventing you from teaching it to others or… well… we can say that your death won't be any quicker!" - Adriana said smiling slightly.
Ophelia frowned and asked. - "Will you teach me everything?"
"Anything you can learn, but then it's up to you!" - Adriana said, shrugging.
"OK! I agree!" - Ophelia said seriously, Adriana smiled and informed her where she should go tomorrow.
...
After succeeding with Ophelia, Adriana went to a house near the city gate, where a family of 3 live there, a mother and her 2 daughters.
Knock* Knock*
With the knock on the door, soon quick footsteps came and the door opened, a small, sweaty woman appeared, panting and frowning.
"Who are you?" - She asked confused.
"Is this the Hawkeye Sisters hunt?" - Asked Adriana.
"Yes! You're?" - The girl narrowed her eyes.
"My name is Adriana, leader of the Scarlet Mist Mercenaries, I came to propose a deal!" - Adriana said smiling.
The girl seemed unwilling, but at that moment an older woman appeared in the doorway. - "Go call your sister!"
…
"Adriana of the Scarlet Mist, hard not to hear about you, so you took an interest in my girls?" - Asked Hyelen calmly.
"Yes, I've heard quite a bit about how sharp the Hawkeye Sisters' eyes are, but now, looking at you, I understand who the Hawk is!" - Adriana said smiling, seeing that Hyelen is at Level 99, which must be the limit without the right method of practicing Mana.
"You have good eyes, that I admit, but what are your ambitions?" - Hyelen asked without hesitation.
Adriana looked at her, smiling she said. - "Initially I want to form a group of 30 Elites, while in 1 or 2 years, when they have been trained by me and all of them are equal to Masters, I will start creating a powerful army, about 200!"
"And then?" - Asked Hyelen calmly.
"Then I will stop hiding, show that I am one of the strongest women in this world, so I will create a city that will be the home of all Mercenaries, I do not want to create a Kingdom, nor become a noblewoman who governs a Province, I will do something simple, but it will be so grand that Queens and Princesses will have to put their heads down if they want something from us!" - Adriana said smiling.
Hyelen looked at her, analyzing the young woman in front of her, feeling that she is special and her words full of confidence.
"At 30, what will they become?" Hyelen asked.
"If I succeed in my plans, the city I will create will become a home and meeting center for all Mercenaries on the continent, naturally I will need to create several other Mercenary Groups to meet many needs, as such I will have to choose capable leaders and champions for the services!" - Adriana said smiling slightly.
Hyelen scratched her chin thoughtfully, a very ambitious and strange dream, but if it works, no nation will dare to move lightly.
Not to mention that Adriana's claim to be hiding, that's something that intrigued her a lot.
"How can I be sure you are everything you say you are?" Hyelen asked.
Adriana scratched her chin, before reaching out her hand and soon her Astral Energy showed itself, modeling a small scenario of a war, it doesn't have many details, but it was enough for Hyelen to be shocked, not understanding it.
She's seen magic and witchcraft before, but nothing compares to this!
"At the moment I am injured, but I am recovering very quickly, in 1 or 2 years I will have all my strength and I can assure you, not even the Guardians of all nations put together would not be able to even lay a finger on me, that I mean all of them together!" - Adriana said laughing full of confidence.
Hyelen calmed down quickly. - 'Calm down Hye, you got old and sentimental?!' - Hyelen forced herself to calm down, which proved to be difficult.
'If I were a few years younger…' - She thought a little sadly, but she thought of her daughters.
"I can agree to them serving you—"
"I want you too!" - Adriana said without hesitation.
"What?!" - Hyelen was surprised.
"You won't be part of the main force, but you are very experienced and skilled, your daughters should have a lot to learn from you before they overcome you, as well as learning to control Mana should help you recover parts of your lost strength and even increase your lifespan, but I wish for you to become the shooting instructor for my troops." - Adriana said calmly.
"So you want our whole family… well, we accept it!" - Said Hyelen, unable to hold back her laughter.
"GIRLS!" - She screamed then Jyelen and Jaylen, twin sisters arrived, which are covered in sweat.
Adriana looked at them, Jyelen is on Level 33 and Jaylen is on Level 34.
"Say hello to our lady, Adriana!" - Hyelen said to her daughters, who looked at each other in surprise, but then bowed to Adriana.
So Adriana got 1 special and 2 main recruits for the Bronze Category, which she believes is temporary.
...
After recruiting the Len Family, Adriana went to a doctor's office and…
"You useless clumsy!" - A scream came from inside, Adriana entered and saw an elderly woman throwing things at a 15-16 year old girl.
She has brown hair, about 1.50 tall, brown eyes, glasses and her hair is very disheveled.
She also has a pitiful expression, she looks like she might cry at any moment.
"Oh hello, what do you need?" - Asked the old doctor smiling gently, at the same time that she was analyzing her.
Adriana isn't hurt, it means it's for someone she needs or she came on business, whatever Adriana seems to have money and that's what matters!
"Hello, my name is Adriana and I came looking for a Doctor, I want to recruit her to treat my companions in the future." - Adriana said calmly.
The old doctor frowned, soon having an idea. - "I see, you came looking for one of my students for your Mercenary Group, I presume?"
"Exactly!" - Adriana said without hesitation.
"But it's a shame, the best ones I had went to big cities or set up their own clinics and… I find it difficult for them to accept your recruitment, but I think I have the perfect girl for you!" - Said the old doctor who went to the girl who had just insulted her.
"Adriana, this is Emely, a very smart student, she is only 16 years old, but she has already memorized all the books I have, the problem is that this girl is very clumsy, but that can be fixed with time, what do you think? " - Asked the old doctor smiling.
Emely was shocked hearing that, looking at Adriana and blushing slightly, becoming very shy, she wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.

"I see, I will take it, how much will it cost?" - Asked Adriana calmly.
"200 Gold, naturally it's so cheap as I'm thinking of the damage it will incur as it helps the girl become less clumsy!" - Said the old doctor smiling.
Adriana glanced at Emely, she obviously seems like the type of girl to be abused, but since that's what she has, she doesn't have to waste any more time, not to mention she made quite a bit of money selling the Demonic Cores.
Naturally she didn't just hunt the mutants, but the normal ones too and has a few thousand in her pocket.
"Okay, tell her to pack her things, I'll take her, do you have a problem with that?" - Asked Adriana.
Emely would say something but received an intense look from the old doctor, so shyly she said. - "N-no..."
Okay, here's the money!" - Adriana said taking coins from her purse.
The old doctor smiled happily and accepted the money without hesitation.
…
"You… must return it to me and get your money back…" - Said Emely shortly after leaving with Adriana.
"Oh why?" - Asked Adriana curious.
"I… suck! I can't use what I've learned, I'm too clumsy and clumsy, I'll only cause you trouble!" - Emely said shaking.
Adriana looked at her and said. - "Don't worry Emely, you left your studies now, so I just need to teach you little by little, trust me and in a few years you will be one of the best doctors in the world, if not the best!"
Emely was surprised by this, not understanding where this confidence comes from.
"Understand Emely, you will follow the strongest woman in this world, naturally you must target the peak of your area, otherwise you will be abandoned, as it was now!" - Adriana said smiling relaxed.
Emely followed her in surprise, not understanding what she was saying, but Adriana didn't bother and just took her to Ajacky, leaving her and Mell to take care of the young woman and make her comfortable.
…
The hours that followed were Adriana recruiting some Mercenaries from other groups, she took whoever was interested, as for the cook, we already have Mellody, so… there's nothing more to say.
Thus, 25 fighters were hired, along with 1 Ferreira, Cook, Doctor, Merchant and Employee.
The Trader recruited is called Kara, a Half-Orc, she has a failed business with little investment, but now Adriana has recruited her to help with finances and of course, buy or sell items for better prices.
As for the Maid, she is the one who served Kara, her name is Keyla, she is a pure-blood Orc, being around her 40s and served Kara's mother before she died.
Keyla takes care of Kara and she was recruited too, as she knows how to do a bit of everything.
And this recruitment lasted a total of 2 days since it started, Adriana had small conflicts here and there, but it was all resolved with a few spanks, sweet words and wet hands!
And today, the day after the draft ended, they all gathered at Mell's tavern, where even Mellody was present and looking down on Adriana.
…
Adriana looked at the 34 women present here, smiling, she said. - "The rules have already been explained, I don't think I need to say more about them, so let's get to what's important!
Many here because they find it unnecessary, have not learned to read or write, so they will have to learn, whether you like it or not, whoever refuses to leave, we have no place for stupid people!" - Adriana said and looked intensely at all, no one left.
"Okay, so let's go, here are some contracts that only 4 of you will sign, so come here, Maria, Mell, Hyelen and Ophelia!" - Adriana said calmly and the 4 advanced.
"These are magical contracts, read them, it will state your obligations to me, as well as everything I promised you!" - Adriana said calmly and handed them the contracts.
They read it and when they saw the punishment part, they obviously hesitated, but keeping in mind the benefits, they decided to accept it, as Adriana will also be severely punished if she doesn't comply.
"Well, with these contracts signed, the 4 of you will receive many benefits, as well as the Contribution Points you receive will be doubled!" - Adriana said calmly, a new concept for all.
"What are Contribution Points?" - Asked Ajacky curious.
"I am a treasure chest, I have many valuable items and knowledge and with time I will have more and more, what I will teach you will be standardized things, as well as I will equip you with standardized equipment in the future, but there will be a scoring system, which will it will allow you to come to me and exchange for superior items and techniques, in the future this will be broader and you will be able to go to the Deputy Leaders to exchange, but for now you must address me!
As for how you receive Contribution Points, very simple, by completing missions you will receive points, avoiding disasters, showing results and exceeding expectations, everything that is beneficial to the group, will be considered a Contribution and will give you points!
Of course, betrayals and mean actions can result in reduced points, so be careful and always maintain a harmonious environment!" - Said Adriana, who remembered something.
"It should be noted that whoever sleeps with me will have no bonus or preference, I am quite impartial to a certain extent, so don't constantly try to seduce me, in the end you will only have a good night of intense pleasure and that's it, I will not harm this group because of women!" - Adriana said calmly and they all looked at each other, the focus turning to Mell and Ajacky.
Adriana didn't bother with that and started talking about other important points, everyone listened attentively.
And after all that, Adriana said that in 1 week the official training will start, so you should study well and get to know each other, because the women present here will be your companions, to whom you will give your life.
Romance will be prohibited and if you have it, let the leaders know, so that they are under observation and of course, avoid getting pregnant as much as possible, this will be very annoying!
...
All were dismissed except for Ajacky, Hyelen, Maria, Mell and Ophelia.
"I called you because your training will start today!" - Adriana said calmly.
"Ehh… I already know, so… can I go to sleep?" - Asked Ajacky raising his hand.
"Not!" - Adriana said without even looking at her.
And then she saw that everyone got excited, it was time to teach them the perfect method to circulate Mana using the Concepts of Chi and their understanding of the body.
…
"Understand that what I am teaching you is not the conventional method, where the Aura Warriors or the Mages let their Mana flow by instinct or concentrate everything in a single point, this is pure garbage, something very wild and without the proper work!
What I am teaching you is how to manipulate the Mana in your bodies, a more efficient method of making it naturally flow through your body, bringing better benefits to your body and of course, an immense improvement in your combat capabilities or in the case of some, help them in the manufacture of unimaginable items!
So according to your combat styles and physical characteristics, I'll show you the best Mana circulations for your bodies, some will ideally focus on improving your body's resistance, others on speed, attack, defense and others!
As you may know, don't teach this to other people, otherwise you will be punished and even if you try you won't succeed, as there is a most important factor to effect all knowledge of the method, which only I can help and Ajacky knows it well! " - Adriana said, explaining in as much detail as possible.
Ajacky shuddered at the memory, the worst part was that her Meridians weren't fully opened, nor were her Pressure Points, in fact she opened very few of them and they caused hellish pain.
But one thing is for sure, she got stronger and her mana storage capabilities only increased!
"Well, we'll start with Maria, I'll be teaching her circulation, while I'll have to fix her Veins of Energy, in the future I'll be helping her to clear everything and move to a more advanced stage, understand that it will be painful, but no pain, no gain !" - Adriana said calmly and the training started!
