Chapter 141: The New Additions
There were over 600 bodies from both sides and the majority consisted of Master Rank fighters from different classes.
Kahn waited for the exact reason for each sides to kill themselves off first so he could easily kill the remaining people even through he didn\'t have any enmity with Demi-Human faction people. Plus saving Szayel would help him for the long term in his opinion.
Although most of them were beginners at best, still the variety of different classes gave Kahn a big boost in the number of strong subordinates. He would\'ve never found these many master-rank corpses together in the same place at Flavot city.
The forces both these sides belonged to weren\'t short on manpower and definitely were not lacking strong people if they could send these many strong fighters just for a small ambush.
Even a Peak Grandmaster Rank warrior like the red wolfkin who would be treated as one of the strongest people in the Flavot city was nothing but a leader of this small troop of a hit squad.
This gave Kahn a hint about what he should expect after reaching the capital. Because even top figures of the city he left behind were just errand boys for the forces that resided in the capital of the empire.
Luckily he hadn\'t become an enemy of either of them.
The next second, Ronin who was hiding in the trees all this time came out and released a bit of his aura to warn the monsters to not interfere with the Synthesis procedure.
Although Kahn had fought various monsters and humanoid beings during his journey towards the capital, he couldn\'t absorb their abilities or create subordinates because there were always too many eyes on him; Let it be the guards or the fellow passengers.. He didn\'t get a proper time to create new subordinates.
He didn\'t even get a chance to upgrade Jugram & Oliver who had already been resurrected a couple of days ago by merging them with the Giantsword user like the Demonkin clan head and Bartholomew who was also an Archer.
So this opportunity resulted in good fortune to him because these people were all top rank fighters and possessed many skills of their own and the results would easily be stronger subordinates. And given the number of bodies available, Kahn estimated the numbers to be more than three hundred subordinates after mixing different and suitable classes together and the new members of The Legion would be far stronger and more useful than the previous members of weak and low-level monsters he previously made.
While the Synthesis procedure would continue, he would travel slowly with the Vampire heir and meet the new members later in the dark of the night. He left Ronin here for the very reason to guide them in case his reach was far away to mentally command them.
Kahn and Szayel started walking amongst the dense trees and rocks carefully to cross the side and reach towards the caravan.
"Remember, don\'t tell anyone about who you are. Say that you were attacked by a bunch of bandits on the other side and I saved you from them. Do you understand?" spoke Kahn.
"I understand. I shall not reveal my identity." replied Szayel.
Kahn took out a black cloak from his space ring and gave it to the vampire boy. Because his attire was simply too eye-catching and one would instantly link him to some nobility class as soon as they saw him.
"Sir, may I ask who you are? I mean a semi-saint rank swordsman such as yourself at this age is very rare, even in the capital." asked Szayel curiously.
"Don\'t ask about my background unless you have a pretty woman you want to introduce to me." replied Kahn with an emotionless expression.
"Besides, who the hell are you kid? All I heard them say was you were the son of some clan or a faction\'s leader. And they wanted to kill you to flame war between their enemies." he questioned after just telling the Vampire heir to not question his background.
"I am named Szayel Mor Vandereich, son of Ismatrazel Mor Vandereich. Our clan is one of the three strongest clans in the entire Empire. And also the leading clan of the Pureblood Faction in the capital." replied Szayel pridefully.
"Fuck! So I just got tangled between the faction war of Purebloods, Demi-Humans & The Neutral faction?" cursed Kahn.
As per his information from the history of the empire.. Ever since the Imperial family was overthrown, the newly created government went from Monarchy to Feudalism.
The clans that once served the Imperial family now had the hold of the empire and were in charge of the Empire.
Although there was no true leader of the empire anymore. These noble factions came to a mutual agreement and ran different sectors of the government. But all the major decisions were taken by the parliament that was full of these noble clans and factions officials.
Kahn wondered how this setting hadn\'t turned to Anarchy because there wasn\'t even a President or Prime Minister in control. Rather these clans worked as part of the government in the name.
More like an Oligarchy running the entire Empire in the name of managing the people.
But after a decade or two, three different factions came to be.
One of them was the Purebloods Faction consisting of nearly 300 clans that believed in only keeping the sanctity of their species and bloodlines regardless of which species you belonged to and became a force that opposes the interspecies mixture. They were in a way, a band of extremists.
But the Demi-Human Faction wasn\'t any better either. The only difference was they had done it for the case of different Demi-Humans and opposed the Purebloods.
The Neutral faction was the one who truly believed in Equality for all the races and citizens of the empire rather than partitioning it.
And since all these factions were equally matched in every aspect, there hadn\'t been a single coup or a civil war in the past hundred years. And that time was enough to remove the annals of history along with the customs and old rules set by the Imperial family.
Kahn sighed after this realization. Because he saw a foreboding of getting mixed into an unnecessary faction war. For now, he would see if there was any benefit of helping the vampire heir like getting some good reward or creating connections that would help him in the Empire.
After reaching the caravan, Kahn explained his well-crafted story for Szayel and they departed for the capital again.
Little did Kahn know that soon, a whole new world was going to be revealed to him.
