Turs for example, had stayed with him for over a month now but his status still read that he was an infant. The very thought of beings as powerful as his dragons being only infants excited him.
He couldn't help but had large dreams, very large dreams. With his mind clouded with his dreams of absolute domination and unparalleled beauties being by his side, Li Ye went to clean himself up.

Change of POV
In a massive forest, close to a mountain, a young man could be seen standing on a tree branch as he surveyed an Ogre tribe a few kilometers away.
"Sir, the tribe's shaman is now within view, remember to watch for the wind direction and correct your angles for a perfect shot" a cold voice was heard from below him as the man looked down only to see an automaton standing guard
"Thanks number four, tell the others to get ready, we will be laying siege on the clan soon" The man said as he jumped down and made his way towards a small cleared area, he had created
Laying down on the ground, the man equipped the modified sniper rifle in front of him and positioned himself well. He was very familiar with the weapon however due to his civilian background, he couldn't say he was a professional at using it.
The Automaton followed behind him as it too laid down beside him to correct him and to act as a spotter. Far in the distance, the ogre tribe could be seen gathering around a massive fire and beside the fire was a massive cage made from bones.
"Ground team in position, awaiting orders" a new voice called out from out of nowhere but the two were not even surprised as they instead became even more serious with their duties
"Acknowledged, Sir do you have eyes on the Shaman?" The automaton asked
"Coming… yes" The man answered as the shaman came into view on the scope of the sniper
"Alright, you can fire when ready"
"In.." the man said as he immediately sucked in a lot of air and held his breath as he positioned himself well and got ready to shot
In the Ogre tribe, the shaman could be seen standing in front of the fire and chanting some sort of incantation as the other ogres screamed and grunted in response.
At varying intervals, the fire rose into the sky as though it was about to go out of control however before the flames could go out of control, the Shaman would wave his hands and peace would be restored.
*Boom*
A silent but incredibly loud explosion was heard as the entire gathering fell silent as the shaman fell to the ground headless.
The Ogres couldn't process what just happened however the smarter ones quickly noticed the weirdness of the situation and immediately became alert
They pulled out their swords, clubs and spears in preparation for combat however before they could even do anything else, gun fire rang out through the night as they too fell to the ground.
"This is a warning to all, be quiet and obey, and you will live however do anything else and you will join your shaman and warriors in death" A cold voice rang out drawing the attention of the large tribe
As they turned to the source, all they saw were metallic demons walking out of the darkness and holding weapons of unknown type or origin. The demons surrounded them while pointing their weapons at them.
"I think i put in a lot more mana into that shot than normal" The man said as he watched a deadout of the shadows with his Automaton spotter

Spirit: 3740 (-400)
…
Unlike before where each soldier was equipped with unlimited normal ammo, His majesty had updated the weapons for all. The gun designs now were relatively the same however now instead of metal bullets, every gun in his arsenal now used mana.
From experience in using them, the guns may have taken away his infinite ammo but in exchange it gave him, nearly unparalleled power.
An Ogre shaman may not have incredibly strong skin but they were powerful enough to compete with high-end A-rank monster physically.
A 400-spirit powered shot was powerful enough to not just kill such a being, it blew its head off. He may not know a lot about the anatomy of A-ranked creatures but from what he saw during the event, he knew they were very durable.
Following the Shaman was the largest Ogres in the group namely the Village chief and any bigger Ogre, he could find.
Using his shot as some sort of signal, the ground squad immediately moved in. They moved from tent to tent as they snuffed the lives of multiple Ogres in just a few seconds
The night was peaceful but the smell of death filled the air and the Ogres remained completely oblivious to their end.
Their focus remained entirely on the fallen body of their Shaman and warriors. Ogres were strong but not exactly all of them were fighters or mages, many of them were just normal civilians
"Who goes there?!!" The slightly sensitive ones sensed the wrong in the night as they became alert
However their hopes of retaliation was cut short as several silvery bullets that shone in the night pierced their bodies
*Gasp*
Expressions of shock and tears filled their faces as they saw their finest warriors die at the hands of this unnamed enemy.
After a brief moments of silence, the Ogres saw a set of beings walkking out of the shadows. They were definitely the ones behind the dearh
looking a bit more closely... they noticed the metallic shine their bodies produced as they moved/

"Good day to you all, My name is Jerry keg, I would advise you all call me Lord keg from now on and from now on, you all have being recruited into the Deus army, you are to follow the orders of the Automatons and I await your glorious return"
Jerry spoke eloquently and in perfect form despite the dangers that each of these ogres represented. The Ogres looked at the small man before them in fear as their minds ran wild.
One of the many things that differentiated an Ogre from Orcs, goblins, trolls and the likes was that. Ogres had human-level intelligence, normally this was a major advantage to them however today, it was the cause of multiple delusions.
The Ogres stared at the small man in the midst of the metallic demons as their minds wondered how much power the weird creature wielded… or at least the slightly stronger ones thought so as the others remained crippled with fear as they stared at the corpse of their shaman and chief.
"Free the captives, if they are sentient enough, they should be let go to go back to their territory if not, capture them as well" Jerry ordered as he turned away from the group to return
As much as he would try to put on a strong front, he couldn't truly bear to watch the almost human-like expressions on the faces of the Ogres. The only good thing here was that he knew he wasn't matching them to their deaths.
His majesty had simply given the order for all the governors to establish a small settlement in their territories with a population of at least 10,000. The number seemed excessive to him too and though he saw no true point to it too sine he was satisfied with the existing castle and allHowever,r he understood that it was somewhat necessary, they may never be able to return back to Earth and they had already being announced as a kingdom and one with incredible reputation at that so he understood that a population was needed.
One reason was to show that they were truly a kingdom and the other was to mitigate any problems in the future. No one truly knows if the system would require them to acquire some citizens in the future as part of some event or so.
After all, if it was already naming nations then it may as well as require those nations to become like actual nations in the future. If it ever did so then they would have solved it before it even required it.
This was also not considering how much easier it would make his mission to find his son and wife. With an army, he could search for them way more efficiently.
He walked back to his sniper position and remained there with his main assistanr, Number Four. Yes, he didn't name the Automatons instead he called them by number.
It was more effective and it didn't waste anyone's time especially when considering that the automatons in question didn't have any emotions to speak off.
While he was away, the team freed the captives which were a mixture of animals, Elves, Orcs, goblins etc. Whatever ritual they were performing didn't seem to have a specific requirement since they just gathered all they found.
