Pri Minister Minxet's entire body trembled with awe and excitent, but he stood firm and did not lose himself as he bowed to the Scarlet King.
"I live to serve the Scarlet King and the Godslayer Humankind Empire."
Cain glanced at the man and nodded before generating a cocoon with his Ego Wave around this one and releasing the 21 Revolution Fla.
Pri Minister Minxet did not waste ti, adopting a ditative position inside the red cocoon as the flas covered his body inside and out, triggering a flood of world energy.
Now that Cain's Ego Wave had grown much stronger and more massive, his speed of thought and willpower were much greater than before, so the 21 Revolution Refinent not only went without a problem but was extrely fast.
All eyes focused on the translucent red cocoon, and they could feel Pri Minister Minxet's foundation growing much more powerful. Every second that passed, their desire grew stronger, as they wanted that lucky chance for themselves, and the only one who could grant it was the Scarlet King.
Once the 21 Revolution Refinent was over, Pri Minister Minxet opened his eyes, and awe and wonder appeared in them. He had grown even younger, but that was the least important thing, as he could feel his cultivation base vibrating and full of power and strength.
With enough ti and resources, reaching the Peak Apotheosis Realm and becoming a Divine Ascension Realm would not be a problem, improving his lifespan to more than ten thousand years!
A man could have many ambitions, but all of them were reduced to two at the end: strength and life. And the Pri Minister now had both within reach!
Despite the shock and thrill, Pri Minister Minxet did not lose focus. His eyes sharpened as he bowed again toward the Scarlet King and then walked forward, standing next to the Collapsing Lightning Emperor.
Silence reigned for a few seconds until Pri Minister Minxet took a parchnt from his space ring.
"Jonas Kerlon, Leader of the rcenary Coalition, step forward."
When Pri Minister Minxet uttered his na, a man slowly walked toward the throne. He asured nearly three ters in height and had a massive physique, with a cultivation at the Late Divine Ascension Realm, a Titan.
Jonas was an unruly yet charismatic and strong powerhouse who worked in the Imperial Army for hundreds of years before becoming independent. He did not take the Noble Path but instead ford his own organization, the rcenary Coalition.
Although Jonas usually only obeyed his own rules and did not care about anyone, this ti, he acted with extre elegance. He did not dare to break his stance and had to keep decorum in a place like this. He stood fifteen ters away from the throne before performing a deep bow.
"Jonas Kerlon humbly greets the Scarlet King and your Majesty, the Collapsing Lightning Emperor."
Cain did not move or speak on this occasion since there were rewards that did not need his interference.
The Collapsing Lightning Emperor made a sign, signaling Jonas to stand straight before speaking.
"Jonas Kerlon, your role in saving the civilians of the Silver City and capturing the loyal yet misguided Imperial Force in the city is worthy of praise. You are now given control over the Azure Royal State to use as you please, as well as all the riches and titles that co with it."
Jonas smiled, full of gratitude, as he bowed once more. A Royal State carried massive wealth and very few responsibilities, so it was perfect for soone like him. With those riches, the rcenary Coalition could grow mightier, and he could push his cultivation to the Peak Divine Ascension Realm.
"I humbly accept this great reward. Eternal glory to the Scarlet King and the Godslayer Humankind Empire."
Jonas stood up before returning to his seat, and then Pri Minister Minxet opened the parchnt once more.
"Oran Sky-Fla, Sky Fla King, step forward."
Like that, more and more nas were being uttered, giving all sorts of rewards to the people that stepped forward, so small, others greater, and there were tis Cain himself handed the reward.
Finally, Pri Minister Minxet uttered the last na on the list.
"Gladius Hellblazer, Hellblazer Sector Duke, step forward."
The Hellblazer Duke walked forward until he was fifteen ters away from the Collapsing Lightning Emperor and bowed.
"Gladius Hellblazer humbly greets the Scarlet King and your Majesty, the Collapsing Lightning Emperor."
Silence reigned after the Hellblazer Duke bowed, and since the Emperor did not speak, he did not dare stand straight. Seconds passed, and he started to grow nervous until finally, the Scarlet King's voice appeared.
"Stand."
The Hellblazer Duke did as told and glanced at the Scarlet King with both expectation and fear. The Hellblazer Family's past was tumultuous, to say the least, and while they made no obvious flaw during The Great Cataclysm, they also did not help much when the entire continent was in danger.
"Hellblazer Duke, your inactivity during The Great Cataclysm is a great irresponsibility. However, you saw reason, and your family was of help during the diplomatic process that led to Protheus's control before the Silver City's invasion."
The Scarlet King's voice reigned before a defining silence, all of them waiting to know what would happen with the Hellblazer Family.
"You will retain your titles, domains, and honor. However, from now on, until the end of your days, the Hellblazer Family will beco the Shadow of the Chief Counselor Minxet. You are his weapon and shield, protecting him from enemies and killing those he commands."
While becoming a Shadow might sound like a punishnt to so, many of the powerhouses present could not help but envy the Hellblazer Duke.
Gladius, on the other hand, smiled. It was clear how much value the Scarlet King gave him to Pri Minister Minxet. After all, this man was the only person to have the Scarlet Emblem. Being the guardian of such an entity carried all sorts of benefits.
