Dina could only lower her head.

Since she was already Ciel's slave, her previous actions naturally became an extremely sinful crime.

As long as she still didn't want to die, she had to accept it.

Ciel then grabbed her hand before teleporting again.

Dina's guild members quickly froze when they saw Dina now standing beside Ciel with her head down.

They didn't need intelligence to understand her defeat.

"Call them here," Ciel ordered.

Dina picked up her two swords again and made a strange move that seemed like a signal to come to her guild members.

It seemed she was respected quite a bit since they still came back despite knowing the situation was already bad.

Ciel looked at them and said, "she has become my slave now, her life is under my control. If you still want to follow her, follow me!"

After that, he patted Dina's shoulder. "Tell them something," he ordered again.

Dina had no other choice but to lift her lowered head. Staring at her guild members for a while, she sighed.

"I lost and I'm still not ready to die, so this is my choice... If you want to leave, you can go, and if you want to continue following me, follow me.... Even though I'm just a slave now, I'm pretty sure this isn't the worst choice of my life after I saw my master's abilities."

She glanced at Ciel with an expression as if to say, "are you satisfied!"

Her words caused silence for a while.

Some finally nodded. "We'll still be following you, boss!"

Those who said it was faster were mostly weaker. Maybe because they were worried about becoming a headless dog if they didn't follow Dina.

Because of their large number, the stronger ones also began to choose to follow Dina.

Ciel thought some of them were quite forced out of fear that he would kill them.

And of course, he would kill those who didn't join.

Dina only asked him not to force her to kill her own guild members. If he did it himself, she might get angry but it didn't reach the point she couldn't accept it as a slave.

After a while, everyone agreed to join.

Ciel nodded in satisfaction, he said to Dina. "You have educated your guild members well, they know what is truth and what is evil."

"Thank you..." Dina could only say that even though she looked like she was about to cry.

This is basically not arrogance anymore, but tyranny.

"Alright everyone, call me Your Majesty from now on...! Now, I have an order for you guys; bring me three Level 13 Copper Cores within 15 minutes!"

Hearing his orders, the people couldn't help but stare at Dina, obviously they still weren't used to taking orders from other people.

While they were staring at Dina, Ciel suddenly said, "one, two,..."

When he said the number "two," they quickly left like a mouse looking at a lion.

The thing was, they could sense extreme killing intent from him.

The massacre would definitely happen again if they still didn't leave after he said the word "three."

Dina, on the other hand, was still standing beside Ciel because he didn't order her to leave. He then asked, "what's your guild name?"

“Wind Eagle Guild,” she replied with an embarrassed expression.

Ciel just wanted to know the name of the guild so he wouldn't be confused about them. He didn't say anything else after that.

Those people turned out to be working faster. After five minutes, one Core was brought to him. Two minutes later they brought another Core.

When it was ten minutes, the three Cores he had requested had finally gathered.

Ciel swallowed them all at the same time.

8×

It should have been nine times, but because his Natural Essence was full, so one point wasted, it couldn't increase his Natural Essence points at the next level.

Nature Essence: 40/40

Ding...

In order to distribute them themselves, Evolvers needed only a thought.

In the past, Ciel distributed them more into the Agility, Strength, and Vitality attributes due to his slow level increase and lack of ability to use Mana Energy so having a strong physique was easier for him.

However, for now, Ciel preferred MP and Spiritual Sense, so he gave them both 15 points each. After that, Strength gains 4 while Agility and Vitality gain 3 points each.

Ding...

Level: 4

Nature Essence: 0/50

MP: 1+2+4+15=22 (+10 Levels)

Strength: 2+4+6+4=16 (+10 Levels)

Agility: 3+6+8+3=20 (+10 Levels)

Vitality: 2+4+6+3=15 (+10 Levels)

Spiritual Sense: 2+4+6+15=27 (+10 Levels)

...

After his level increased, Ciel felt a drastic increase in strength.

He knew it wasn't because of his stat points, but because of the +10 Level.

"I'll go with you, but I have an errand for your guild members while they explore this forest," Ciel said to Dina.

Although bringing her required more Mana Energy, his later battles would be easier.

That he would do until her strength could no longer help him, this was the proper way of using stronger subordinates or slaves.

Dina and her guild members immediately looked at him with expressions awaiting orders.

Ciel continued while looking at all of them. "I want you to split into groups and travel separately. Look for any information from people.... Later, I might come to one of you to ask."

After saying that, he immediately left while holding Dina's hand.
