Multiverse Conquest: Rise of the Saiyan Empire

Chapter 221: Five Pillars of the Empire

Imperial Capital

Through the last week all the preparations for the reception of an additional billion people were made swiftly.

All the things advanced smoothly under the supervision of the Supreme Council.

The Emperor only looked at it from afar.

The Accommodation of the new residents was advancingThe Synergic relations between the Capsule Corp, the Saiyan Engineers and the Imperial Devils Nation was making the work a lot faster.

The tribesmen would soon discover the joy of living under the Shade of the Empire.

Marek on his throne contemplated for a long timeHis thoughts were long and complex. No one dared interrupt them.

All the subjects remarked that even after the Emperor got out of his dazeHe spent the major of his day in deep reflection and meditation.

Only todayHe convoked his two most intelligent and most reliable cancellers.

The two people whose judgement he trusted the most. He even dismissed the Brotherhood.

IndeedThe decision he was going to make today, couldn't even be communicated to the Supreme Council. Not even his Empresses, knew yet.

Lelouch and Schneizel, sensing the weirdness of the call, arrived hurriedly each one leaving their respective busy schedules.

His First Vizir was by his side. The Emperor sighed as he looked at his Vizir's state of mind.

Lelouch.

He had a dark gaze.A fiery vengeful glint in his eyesAfter the end of the crisis

It could be said that the one who still held the most grudge washim.

Afterwards, he got the news, that this plan was most likely fomented by the First Princess.

It could be saidWithout a doubt, that him and Schneizel lost to that witch.

How could he be willing to let it go?

'Good Rachela SaharanWatch out how I even out things with you.'

"Don't concern yourself too much."

"You should know that all members of their Royalty probably use methods to augment their intuitive and deduction abilities."

"This little girl has been trying in this art since youth"

"But you are no way inferior to her, you are simply lacking methods to exploit your abilities."

Lelouch sighed deeply, he tried to hide it to the best he could. But the Emperor could see through him easily:

"Yes, your majesty."

"I guarantee this won't happen again."

The Emperor then changed his subject to the object of his reflection:

"The Portals between the different parts of the Empire need to be opened."

"I cannot tolerate a fragmented Empire."

"All my people need to understand the grandness of their land."

"This need to be accomplished before the powerful cities are built."

Lelouch nodded:

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"But I do think we need Magus and Scientists for the most optimum portals to appear."

The Emperor nodded in acknowledgement:

"How did the Guilitina conquest go?"

Lelouch responded calmly:

"The Conquest headed by your generals was smooth and without any hitches."

"No Casualties, no civilian was even scratched."

The Emperor's eyes flashed with a hint of nostalgia, before he continued:

"Good, good"

A slight smile grew on his face, as he asked:

"How did your mission at the Alvarez Empire go?"

"Rather smoothly."

Then, the tone of the Emperor became lightly graver. Indicating the important=ce of his question:

"What did you think of Zeref?"

Lelouch eyes narrowed and spoke calmly:

"Insanely talented, painfully self-aware"

"His pride has been crushed for all his life, but that given him resilience and prudence that geniuses of his level rarely have."

"And now, because of your Majesty, he is filled with hope"

"There is no doubt, if he is groomed properly, he will make a great pillar for the Magus of the Empire."

Lelouch gave his honest opinion. The Emperor didn't deny or acknowledge, he simply proceeded to the next question:

"Irene Belsserion?"

"Monstrously talented warlock."

"Even the man, named Leylin Farlier with his A.I ship wouldn't be able to rival the deduction ability of her Sage Dragon Slayer Magic if it was developed to the limits."

"Tormented by her past, and more so by her identity, as the first of her kind"

"she stopped advancing in the way of the Magus for a long time, like Zeref did."

"And started slowly regressing."

The Emperor who heard this evaluation from his Vizir smiled mildly:

"Your final verdict?"

Leloouch eyes became solemn:

"These two are essential targets to acquire at top priority."

"Their birth would, in normal circumstances, usher a new age of Magic in a normal magic world."

"It would have accelerated the growth of Magic in Edolas by at least hundreds of thousands of years."

"SadlyThey are born in a subworld of Magic, in a Greater Universe ruled by Gods, who are already wary of it."

"And their evolution was cut short, to the minimum."

"Their Monstruous talent gave them unwanted attention from much more powerful lifeforms."

"As their adhesion to the Empire, could accelerate the growth of Magic in the Empire territories exponentially."

"And seeing their unlimited growth potential"

Lelouch's eyes flashed, as he made his final verdict.

"Their strategic value could even rival the Marshalls in the Future."

The Emperor shut his eyes as he heard the report, and opened it when he finished, and laughed lightly:

"GoodVery good."

Lelouch added:

"Zeref is already loyal to your Majesty."

"While Irene Belsserion, is considering joining at any moment."

He then smiled lightly:

"I also heard that your youngest brother, received quite the gift"

"If he is anything like his older onesThen this is worth looking forward too."

Marek lips beamed with a bright smile:

"Those cheeky brats visited their brother without me."

"How insolent!"

"Isn't it worth celebrating?"

"In the upcoming years I will have another brother to accompany to the Apex!"

Lelouch nodded helplessly to the joy of the Emperor:

"I am happy for you, your Majesty."

The Emperor then looked at Schneizel:

"I heard, you met with that brat Orochimaru"

His eyes became complex:

"What do you think?"

Schneizel kept a casual smile:

"Lonely"

"That's what struck the most when I saw him."

"Not isolated from othersBut isolated from the world himself."

"He will forever remain misunderstood, and that feeling will only continue to seep into him."

His eyes became a tad somber:

"This is the tragedy of those born in the wrong era"

The Emperor nodded back:

"Indeed, he obviously has a great compatibility with reptilian bloodlinesYet he could never master the Snake Sage mode."

"This means, that he wasn't born with a talent for the Dao."

"He may have a talent for scienceBut that is only secondary to his real talent."

Schneizel eyes flashed:

"Only this child is not only born in the wrong era, but he is born in the wrong world."

"The unyielding yearning for immortality, the endless greed for knowledge, the love of experiments and his innovative mind."

"If he isn't a magus born in a shinobi world, I really don't know what he is."

"Nevertheless, his fear of his own mortality, his fear of his own isolation, and the frustration form his talent who cannot possibly bloom in this world."

"Will carve a sense of inferiority.thatcombined with the early loss of his parents.."

"Will turn into pathological research for a sense of security."

"Be it the village's and his sensei's recognition, be it the forbidden techniques, or powerful bloodlines and bodies."

"Anything that could lead him to the security of immortality."

"A dependance that will turn into obsession seeping into him."

"Everything and everyone he loves will also become everything he envies."

"Turning into ressentiment, and then slowly into a crooked sense of love and hate with everything important to him."

Schneizel words were on point, and were even a little terrifying.

Even if Schneizel knew roughly the future of Orochimaru, he didn't watch the series, and he didn't see any dialogues.

For him to see through this character in the blink of an eye, even Marek found it remarkable.

Schneizel continued:

"Talented individual in certain fields tend to have some character traits. It's my job to analyze their behavior in unfavorable circumstances."

The Emperor nodded:

"Excellent!"

"So what do you think should be done..?"

Schneizel smiled mildly:

"I already planted the seed of alienation in his mind."

"The moment he came in contact with the Kemoyin Pupil. There was no backtrack possible."

"I suggest, that you let him grow"

"The more time, he passesThe more his sense of alienation will grow."

"And the more he will yearn for our Empire."

Marek's eyes burned with greed:

"And when he will finally want find a place where he could be himself. And a place he could rely on."

"I will be more than happy to take him in"

Schneizel responded:

"Only thenCould he be nurtured into a Pillar of your Magus World."

"A Powerful Ouroboros Warlock, of the Empire."

"His value is no less, in my eyes, than Zeref and Irene Belsserion."

"He may be a tad less talentedBut his will is second to none, his determination, and his greed are unmatched."

"If Zeref and Irene are geniuses who could usher eras of prosperity, and further develop society."

"This child, and Elfman, could dominate the enemies Magus with infinite power and uncrushable will."

"In wars those two will be a nightmare to defend against."

Lelouch nodded in acknowledgement, and Marek nodded shortly after:

"You are right."

The Emperor shut his eyes for a while before he spoke to the void:

"Kassandra."

Immediately, an elegant beauty, draped in Assasin's cloth, appeared:

"Your Majesty, Kassandra is here."

Her voice was charming and brimming with love and worship. Marek's eyes lingered on the Assassins:

"You've got stronger. Good."

"And you seem in a better mood"

Kassandra only smiled revealing her beautiful dimples without adding a word.

"I heard you've made a recruit."

Kassandra spoke with calm:

"Your majesty, she is a promising child."

Marek narrowed his eyes:

"Ultear Milkovic"

"Daughter of the Ice Mage, UL.."

His eyes shined deeply:

"While I find ice magic rather crude and primitive."

"The talent of Time Magic is something I find interesting."

Kassandra nodded.

"Just her compatibility with such power element, could compensate for a lack of talent in Magic."

"ButEven so, she is extremely talented in forbidden magic mastery."

Marek eyes then moved to the vizirs:

"What do you thinkGentlemen"

Lelouch nodded:

"She is pillar material too. Her fickle and fragile personality worries me a little."

"But it's not something that couldn't be fixed."

Schneizel agreed:

"I agree. Time Magic talent is absolutely monstrous even in the Magus World."

"After allIf she comprehend it. The law of time could already guarantee her a Rank 9 Magus status if groomed properly."

"For the near future, if she reaches the Realm where she could use it without any side effects and touch upon the laws. She would be a strategical support weapon in upcoming wars."

Marek nodded slowly before smiling kindly to the Assassin.

"You've made a good move this time, Kassandra."

"She will be under your wing for now. Keep in mind that she is a precious asset of my Empire."

Kassandra face beamed joy, being praised by her Mentor:

"It's my and her honor to be of use to you, your Majesty."

Marek nodded slowly:

"I must also say that have a certain weak spot for lost girls like her."

"Let me meet that child, sometime."

"Maybe I could be of help."

Kassandra nodded solemnly, before disappearing:

"I certainly will, your majesty"

When she disappeared, the Emperor revealed a satisfied smile:

"GoodThis conquest of Guilitina have made us quite the harvest."

"It seems that at least Five Seats of the Magic Council are already decided."

Schneizel responded politely, with a slight bow:

"I hope neither one of the five will let down your expectations"

Marek laughed lightly, as his eyes became more determined:

"I doubt they will have the occasion to do that."

Lelouch's eyes narrowed, and as he looked at the clear and untethered eyes of the Emperor.

Excitement and solemnity were mixed in them.It was the same eyes he had, when he decided to face the God of Destruction.

NoThis time, he looked even more convinced.

He knewThat his Monarch had made a major decision. And that this decision was final.
