City of Arcana, Teleportation Array:
After finishing his business with Cedric, he returned with Emma and Jane.
"Is this the Arcane Continent..." Emma whispered longingly.
"The energy here is so pure and dense," Jane added.
They had never felt such an overwhelming amount of mana in their lives.
If it were not for Maximus urging them, they would have stopped and trained on the spot.
"This is the center of the Arcane Continent, so it naturally has the most abundant mana."
"Oh, will we really live here?" Emma asked to confirm if she was dreaming.
"You're here to serve me, not to have fun."
"Tsk, no fun!" Jane complained at such a killjoy.
"Let's go; there's still a lot for you to do."
"Yes, master," they said sarcastically.
---
Maximus' Manor:
"Wow, is this your home?" Emma asked, amazed.
"You're quite rich to afford this place," Jane muttered.
Although they didn't know much about the Arcane Continent.
But, since this place was the center of the continent, the land price would surely skyrocket.
"It's free," Maximus replied as he entered inside.
"Free?!"
"Is this the benefit of being a student in the most prestigious establishment in the Arcane Continent?"
"No, it's a privilege of a core student," Maximus said as he sat down.
"Core student?" They still didn't understand the ranking system of the Origin Arcana Institute.
Maximus explained the ins and outs of this matter.
"Awesome, I didn't expect that a pervert like you is so talented," Jane gave a thumbs up.
"How is it? Not bad for being your master, right?"
"Not bad," Emma unconsciously nodded.
"No, no, it's very bad," Emma hurriedly corrected.
"I didn't expect you to already succumb to your destiny, Emma!" Jane teased.
Truthfully, they weren't really against being Maximus' maids.
In fact, they somehow enjoyed it.
"I'm glad you like being my maids."
"What about the thing I mentioned earlier? Have you considered it?" Maximus asked.
"Earlier? What is it?" Emma asked.
"About warming my bed~"
"I-I," Emma didn't know whether to agree or not.
"Don't be fooled by him; we will not warm your bed!" Jane refuted.
"Oh, but it's the main responsibility of a maid."
"A-at least let us prepare!" Jane compromised.
They had no other choice; they were captives now.
They didn't know when Maximus would lose patience and force them.
"Hahaha, I'm joking."
"Take your time; I'm not in a hurry."
"So you still want us to warm your bed!" Jane rolled her eyes.
While Maximus, Emma, and Jane were filtering, the door opened.
"Husband!" His wives greeted him as they pounced on him.
"Welcome home."
Looking at the sweet interaction between them, Emma and Jane grew somewhat jealous.
But they quickly buried their feelings, reminding themselves that they were now maids.
"Who are these two, husband?"
"It's my exclusive maids," Maximus said, winking at them.
"Oh, maids, huh?"
They just rolled their eyes at their husband's antics.
What maids?
Everything in this house is fully automated, from the simplest cleaning to all-around services.
It can be said that this place is autonomous.
"Hello, nice to meet you; I'm Emma."
"I'm Jane."
"Hello, feel yourself at home," Erica said.
"Yes, don't listen to our husband; he talks a lot of nonsense," Hazel added.
The others also greeted.
After Maximus brought them here, they were already sure that they would become one of their sisters.
Even Denise, who often came here with Emma, was the same. T
he only question was time; after all, without enough strength, it would just be a dream.
A while later,
While they were talking and laughing with each other, as the other prepared dinner, the kids came home.
"Dad! We're here!" Lyla yelled.
"Mommy, you're also here!" Serene said.
The others also greeted them as they sat down, waiting for food.
"Are you our new mommies?" Cyra asked sweetly.
"N-no, we're not," Emma said, blushing.
"You're cute," Jane didn't reply as she hugged Cyra.
"Mommy?" Cyra asked again.
"I'll be your mommy from now on!" Jane couldn't help but say.
"Mommy!" Cyra said, kissing her.
"J-Jane?"
"Hmph, I'll be the mommy of this baby, not the wife of that scumbag!" Jane explained.
"Mommy, I'm Cyra, and daddy is not a scumbag," Cyra pouted as she defended.
"Oh, so it's baby Cyra!"
"Don't worry, your father is not a scumbag," Jane said softly.
"Hmmm," Cyra smiled and kissed her again.
Maximus, who saw this, smiled strangely.
"It seems cute children's offense is effective," he thought.
Amara, who was watching from the side, unconsciously pinched Liam.
"What?"
"Oh, nothing. I just thought of pinching you," Amara rolled her eyes.
"Weird woman," Liam thought, not understanding Amara's action.
Soon, the food was ready.
"It's time to eat," Erica said in the kitchen.

A month later, in the Westle Empire:
"How is the sea caravan I told you about?" Emperor Khan asked.
He is the ruler of the Westle Empire, a tier 6 individual.
A month ago, he asked his subordinates to conquer the Sun Sea region.
Coincidentally, the Star Sea Traders had already conquered the place, which made it easier.
"Negative, your Majesty. The people we sent didn't come back," the advisor said.
"They didn't come back?" Khan frowned.
"It seems that the Sun Sea region is more chaotic than I thought," Khan sighed.
He thought that other empires also had their hands on the Sun Sea region.
After all, it's where the initiator of the era of imperial domination resided.
Based on the records.
Although all those who started the era of imperial domination died in the end.
More or less they had something unique that could trigger the start of war.
"Also, it seems that the leader of the sea caravan, Cedric, joined the Moonlight Empire." The advisor said.
"Hmm, it's as expected," Khan said calmly.
Originally, he thought that with the power and reputation of the Westle family, he could recruit Cedric.
"It seems like the Emperor of the Moonlight Empire had something more to offer."
"Your Majesty, this is the message sent by Prince Ivan when recruiting Cedric," the advisor said, showing the message.
The advisor knew that this was the reason why they failed to hire Cedric.
"Hmm?" Khan raised an eyebrow as he read the message.
"It seems that the royal family needs some cleaning," Khan frowned.
Usually, he didn't care about the corruption in his empire as long as everything ran smoothly.
But at an important junction, a prince from who knows where dared to be greedy.
"Elder Vince, I will leave it to you," Khan motioned to the man standing beside him.
"Yes, your Majesty," Vince bowed.
Although Vince was tier 7, he had no slightest air of pride about him.
Being the emperor of a big family where tier 8 individuals resided was not simple.
Overwhelming talent was just the bare minimum.
Especially now, due to the amalgamation of wills, Khan was invincible.
Unless it was another emperor or at least a tier 8 individual, nothing could hurt him.
"Hmm, don't let me down," Khan said, nodding.
"Allocate more resources toward the Sun Sea region."
"Make sure not to engage in a fight."
"Kill whoever disobeys," Khan ordered his advisor.
"Yes, your Majesty!"
...
Three months later, Shadow Hunter City:
"The teleportation array is finally finished," Maximus muttered as he exited the portal.
"It's more troublesome to set up a teleportation array in the Origin Domain, boss," Andrew, the vice guild leader, explained.
"Anyhow, we're here. Let's see how the city is being developed," Maximus said.
This is the free land given to him by the Origin Arcana Institute.
Although the teleportation array was not finished during these past couple of months.
His guild members traveled physically and helped build the foundation here.
Maximus walked as Andrew introduced him to the place.
"Boss, this is the Origin Converter, our base's main energy supply."
Although the Origin Domain had the densest mana, it could only be used in training.
To use it for other things, it needed to be converted.
Of course, you could also use crystallized mana, like magic crystals.
"This is the Universal Processor, the building block of all materials."
"Unfortunately, it's only tier 6," Andrew said, hoping Maximus would allocate more budget.
The Universal Processor, as mentioned, is an automatic processor that can turn raw materials into any building block ready for use.
"I don't have any more money," Maximus sighed.
The trillion he borrowed was mostly used for the development of his empire.
Currently, he only had a few billion on hand, which was reserved for emergencies.
"Sigh, we can only wait until we earn income." Andrew sighed.
He understood that the guild was still not making profits.
All the expenses are covered by their guild leader.
They were even amazed that Maximus was able to pay them.
"Boss, this is the integrated Workshop Facility."
"Unfortunately, it's not yet finished; otherwise, we could make something to sell."
"Hmm."
"This is the ship-building facility, boss."
"After the ship's blueprint is finished, we can instantly start to work."
"This is the integrated compound for all the people who will come to Shadow Hunter City."
"This is..."
