It was as if something had shattered into a thousand pieces, and the next moment, in the center of the black clouds like pitch, a tunnel opened up, growing larger and larger, allowing daylight to pass through and returning hope to the inhabitants of Axel.
Milcar opened his eyes. He had reached the first level of the foundation establishment, but Milcar squinted. His energy, his Qi, had changed.
The Qi Milcar used to wield could be compared to a thick liquid diluted in water. Now, Milcar's Qi had increased in purity. It was as if there was more of that thick liquid concentrated in a smaller amount of water.
Milcar could feel that his power had multiplied several times over. The purity of his Qi was simply out of this world. With just a single thought, Milcar could imagine a fireball materializing in front of him, and it would happen.
Smiling at this realization, Milcar vanished from his position.
Milcar appeared in the dining room where Alderp and the others were. To Milcar's surprise, Alderp remained in place, as did Darkness and everyone else. None of them seemed to have moved from their seats, almost as if they were waiting for Milcar to return.
No one said anything for a moment. However, Milcar then walked to where his seat should be, sat down, and began eating the cold food on the table as if nothing had happened.
"Hehehe...", Milcar began to laugh between bites while licking his lips lightly. A moment later, Milcar seemed to remember something and slapped his forehead.
Everyone in the room watched Milcar.
"Damn it, I forgot I was using some Qi to restrict you movements... hehehe, I hope you... kids... don't blame me for this", Milcar cursed before removing the Qi that was restraining Kazuma, Darkness, and Megumin.
The three quickly began to move. Darkness stood up from her chair, Megumin aimed her staff at Alderp, and Kazuma hid behind Milcar.
"What's supposed to be happening?", Milcar couldn't help but wonder in his mind.
Megumin aimed her staff at Alderp before speaking almost yelling.
"You're a traitor who has murdered the first prince!", Megumin shouted with indignation, her mouth moving to cast an explosion spell.
However, before Megumin could launch her explosion, a slight layer of Qi covered her mouth, preventing her from speaking.
"Hehehe, my little nuclear bomb, there's no need to be angry. After all, what Alderp said before is probably true...", Milcar spoke with a smile on his face.
Darkness, who was about to jump forward to hit Alderp, turned to look at Milcar with disbelief.
"What the heck!!!, Milcar!!!, You can't agree to betray the royal family!!!", Darkness shouted as if pleading with Milcar for his forgiveness. This strange way of speaking puzzled Everyone and made Milcar smile for a moment.
"But what are you saying?, It's not betrayal because from the beginning, I never belonged to this kingdom Belzerg. I'm American, I don't need to pay homage to any king, I'm not like those Spanish or British, hahaha!", Milcar laughed heartily while Darkness looked at him with narrowed eyes, unable to comprehend Milcar's words.
However, before Alderp could smile and raise a hand to shake Milcar's hand, a sword was already piercing his heart.
"Thank you, Lord Alderp. It's no longer necessary for you to... remain alive. It's over, now I have a power that surpasses even Vanir's. I've already taken what I wanted from you...", Milcar said. He had disappeared and reappeared in front of Alderp in the blink of an eye. Milcar had grabbed a sword and plunged it into Alderp's heart in just one blink. No one saw it, no one could prevent or stop him.
Wiz watched with extremely wide eyes as Milcar. Who is this man?, Why is he so powerful?
Wiz's heart raced intensely even though she had no heart.
Wiz took a step back as if about to escape, but her body trembled, her mind chaotic. Although she wanted to move, none of her muscles responded.
In just an instant, with a furious look from Alderp, this fat man died. Milcar simply kicked Alderp's body aside before looking at everyone in the room.
"From now on, I rule this small city. Are you in agreement?"
Milcar's ethereal and simply magical voice resonated in the minds of each and every one present. They all nodded, indicating that they understood.
Darkness, who had previously been ready to enter into combat along with Megumin to show their loyalty to the Belzerg kingdom, said nothing.
After giving some orders, Milcar returned to his castle with his group.
They all arrived just in time to prepare dinner, and just in time because Aqua and Eris had just woken up.
Although in the foundation establishment, Milcar doesn't need to eat or drink water to live, he still does out of habit, because the food is delicious.
At a large table where several dishes were served with abundant food, Milcar's entire group gathered to dine. Milcar smiled as he took the leadership position, the largest chair at the table.
Although Kazuma, Megumin, and Darkness didn't say anything during this time, Milcar could understand their thoughts and what each of them was thinking.
Milcar simply raised a wine glass, his eyes looking at everyone at the table with a smile.
"From now on, from today, we will rule this small city and turn it into a powerful nation..."
The dinner was lively, with many questions that Milcar answered honestly and promised to find a way to make the members of his group stronger.
In fact, Milcar knows how to make the members of his group gain power, and that way is simply by having sex with them. For Milcar, it would be fine if all the members of his group were women, but Milcar can't apply this method to Kazuma, after all, he is a man.
After dinner, Milcar, Aqua, and Eris returned to a room to cultivate normally.
A day passed. In the middle of the night, Milcar got up, leaving the two unconscious girls in bed, and left his room ready to take a bath in the large pool inside a room in the castle.
During this time, some theories crossed Milcar's mind, but one still prevailed deep in his thoughts.
And that is to use his Qi to strengthen the bodies of the members of his group.
After all, his Qi has evolved and is no longer normal Qi, but rather pure Qi almost comparable to the divine power of the gods.
Walking calmly, Milcar reached a large door, opening it his eyes were dazzled by a slight mist coming from a cloud of steam.
Milcar moved silently, closing the door behind him. Milcar had already planned to come here because throughout the previous day, Milcar could feel someone spying on him, and even that someone dared to watch he having sex with Eris and Aqua.
Now, at this moment, that someone seems to be showering in this large pool, an ancient decoration made of stone. The water here is abundant and hot, causing the vapor to rise in the air.
