She struck the staff against the ground, and it rang out with a loud bang: "Let there be order."
A raw golden and white power poured from her body and spread across the entire planet, and immediately all the hostile creatures became as docile as domestic cats. Not only that, even the planet’s hostile climate calmed and became orderly, and even the atmosphere seemed to grow cleaner.
"... So this is the power of the Empress." Everyone heard the voice of the lead operator through the communicator.
"That is only a projection of her, she is even more powerful than that," Fred replied.
"....." An incredulous silence fell, and then a wave of fervor and loyalty grew among everyone.
Andrew and Fred were at a threat level that could destroy a solar system for one reason: the gods whose support they asked for were far stronger than that.
Nodding, pleased with herself internally, Violet was satisfied with her demonstration. As a high-level dragon goddess of Order, she did not need to create all this spectacle, since she could pacify the entire planet with one word if she wished. But, as her husband once said, presentation is very important in these situations.
She only appeared out of curiosity, considering it was not very common for Victor’s friends to ask for her power. Usually, they used more destructive powers like Victor’s, or those of her other sisters, and not the power of Order like hers.
She looked at both of them and smiled, slightly satisfied, and then began to slowly disappear. [Keep up the good work, my subjects.]
When the Empress completely disappeared, there was a brief silence until Andrew spoke: "Everyone back to work, let’s get the creatures, and finish the work."
"Yes!!!"
As the Spartans began to work and left Andrew and Fred alone, Fred complained: "Violet is unfair. This was our Badass moment. Why did she have to appear?"
"Mah, Mah, there is always next time," Andrew said.
"And when will that be? The author is clearly forgetting about us!"
"Idiot! I already told you. Stop breaking the wall. Quickly, fix it already!"
"Yes, yes," Fred grumbled, and then picked up the hammer and began to work.
...
Velnorah looked at the race in front of her, slightly frowning.
"The Yuurakyo seems to be very flawed."
The Yuurakyo were a race from Velnorah’s old sector, a race of perfect warriors. Well, at least that was what she thought before. Now, she saw all the defects of this race, and how inferior they were to the hybrid warriors that Victor created.
"Wow, this race is not very good either," Velina commented beside her mother while looking at the clone of her mother’s old race.
"... Well, a race like that of the true dragons is a true abnormality. We simply are very compatible with existence." Velnorah felt as if she had become very spoiled. Her current race was simply very one-sided compared to any other.
In the grand scheme of things, the race known as true dragons was not very numerous. If counting their entire family, there were around 40 to 50 true dragons in this entire sector, so in terms of numbers, they are exceptionally few.
But what they lack in number, they more than make up for in power. Each one of them, from the youngest dragon to the oldest dragon, was an absolute monster.
"It is cosmic balance again." Velnorah narrowed her eyes. It was a rule that everything in the cosmos must have a weakness. In a logical sense, the small number of true dragons was their weakness, and if they did not have an entire Empire to protect themselves, they would be at a real disadvantage if they were to create a faction only with true dragons.
Victor, as a Progenitor, could increase the number, but... He has already been warned by the Primordials to control himself. There was a reason why each of the wives only had one child, and it was not Victor’s fertility or their bodies being too weak. Even if having twins or even triplets would be exhausting, and they would become weaker during that time, it was not to the point of killing them, they were not that weak.
Victor and his wives simply limited themselves to only one child per wife because the Emperor was already in the sights of the Primordials, and any false step could make things very ugly. In the end, it was just a matter of lack of power.
Of course, blaming everything on the Primordials was not realistic. Velnorah knew Victor deliberately refused to give his race to anyone outside his family. His race was the mark of sovereignty of the Empire, the name Elderblood, and the true dragon race was the identity of the Imperial family.
Therefore, a future in which everyone became this race was completely impossible. True dragons were only members of the Emperor’s family, and that would never change.
"What do we do, Mother?"
"We take the adaptation genes of the race and the technomancy genes of our race, then we will try to make a hybrid with the strengths of other races."
"...Right." Velina began to work: "What alignment of these clones?"
"Neutral."
"Shall we use angels and demons again to balance?"
"Hmm..." Velnorah thought for a few seconds. "No, they are too extreme poles. I want scientists with the power of technomancy, not soldiers, but even being scientists, they must be strong enough to destroy a planet if threatened."
It can be said that, as a dragon, Velnorah’s mentality changed a little, as she no longer tolerated fragile people. It was common sense that every scientist should be capable of destroying a planet, just as every mage should be a master swordsman.
"We will download the information directly into their minds, that way, they are already born with knowledge and do not waste time learning."
"... Should we ask Father or Melida for help? These clones will simply be much inferior to the Bloodhunter brothers."
"No. I don’t want elites, the Empire already has too many of them. I want a squad of technomancers that can assist me and defend themselves, if necessary."
Planetary-level strength in battles was turning out to be only above-average beings. In contrast, beings that could destroy solar systems were the elites, and beings that could destroy an entire galaxy were super elites that were much less numerous. Beings that could destroy several entire galaxies, like Victor, Azathoth, Jeanne, or Scathach, were anomalies that could be counted on one hand.
Although both were diagnosed in the Empire as V-06, beings capable of destroying galaxies, there was an enormous difference between someone at the top of this classification and someone at the beginning of it. Most elite beings were at the beginning of this classification, with beings like Victor and the leaders of the other factions at the highest level, capable of destroying several galaxies at once.
Because it was extremely difficult to know whether someone was at this level, the system was deliberately vague. After all, this wasn’t powerscaling, but threat level.
Andrew and Freed, despite not being properly said to be at a power level capable of destroying a solar system with the snap of their fingers, like Victor’s wives, for example, their threat level was considered high because they had the advantage of having several very dangerous powers.
"Understood."
"Mother, are these beings really necessary? Don’t we have enough geniuses?" Velina asked, curious, with the state of the Empire now, if you toss a coin up, there is a 69% chance it will land on the head of some genius around there.
"Realistically, it is not necessary," Velnorah said. "But there are certain projects that I simply do not feel comfortable entrusting to people whose entire existence I do not control."
"Hmm, but aren’t we already using clones? And with our competence, do we really need them?" Velina was skeptical, and she was not wrong. Velnorah, Ruby, Aline, and Velina, these mothers and daughter, were monsters when it came to research and development of the Empire.
Any project you point to in the Empire will have the finger of Velnorah, Ruby, and Aline, and after Velina appeared, her name also began to appear. They were all among the greatest contributors to the Empire’s development.
" Foolish daughter," Velnorah sighed. "Yes, we are competent, and absurdly efficient, but... Do we need to do everything? Even now, we leave the small tasks to subordinates. Even a supercomputer will not process all the useless data that we would need to sort through. It is better to leave that to other processes and focus its energy on what really matters."
"The same logic applies here. There are some projects I want to do that must remain in absolute secrecy, known only to Darling and me. Therefore, having some beings made especially for this is necessary."
"I understand..." Velina was not stubborn. She understood her mother. Although she still disagreed with her, she was simply too controlling with her things. She preferred to do everything alone. After all, she did not get tired anyway.
’Honestly, my daughter is very spoiled by this broken race.’ If Velina had been born only with her old race, she would understand Velnorah better. Even though it was absurd before, she would still become tired, something that did not happen to her as a true Dragon.
’Although her words are not exactly wrong.’ Velnorah, Ruby, and Aline realistically did not need an entire legion, as they alone were more than enough, but they understood something.
From time to time, someone can offer a new perspective or idea they hadn’t considered because they hadn’t seen it from that angle. Some of the improvements of the Imperial citizens were due to the perspective of these beings. After all, the Imperial Family had already become accustomed to being a group of monsters and did not exactly understand how ordinary people feel.
She was thinking of making her own staff under her control for this exact reason.
’We should return to the raids. It has been some time since our daughters, and we experienced what it is like to be someone weak.’ Velnorah thought about sending her daughters to experience a little humility again in the dreams that Victor could make. Velina was in great need of this, as she was becoming very arrogant. Not only her, but some other daughters also need it.
Velnorah will never forget the lesson that made her lose everything. Her arrogance clouded her judgment, and she lost her entire Empire, and she does not want her daughter to make the same mistake.
’Stop thinking about these things’, she thought as she focused on the current project, and spoke: "Go home. It is time for dinner, Velina. I will join you soon."
"Yes, Mother."
Family dinner was a tradition. Despite being beings who do not need to eat to live, they still gathered for dinner every day. In times as busy as these, they gathered every 2 to 3 days.
No matter how busy you were, you must participate in dinner. Even Albedo, who spent a lot of time doing her own things and rarely appeared in the family, did not dare disobey this Order.
Velina left her things on the table and left the laboratory, using her powers to clean herself and become presentable again. But as soon as she teleported home... She was ambushed by a group of four red-haired women and one with black hair.
"What!? What are you-" Completely caught off guard, the Scarlett daughters, along with Hinata, quickly put a bag over Velina’s head.
"Velina was captured. Quickly, move!" Priscilla ordered, and they quickly ran with her over their shoulder to Sylvia’s room.
"....." The other sisters who saw this happen just remained speechless for a few seconds.
