123 Incarnation of Death and Destruction (1/2)
Zatiel along with Nathan, David, and Henry were in a hall that lacked any sort of decoration, and the only things you could find in it were some chairs and a table.
This was a place meant to receive visits, and due to Zatiel's lack of interest for any sort of fancy things, he didn't bother with decorating it.
”I must say that I am impressed by how far you have advanced in less than two years since we built the tower. The people under you have reached a number above ten thousand, and your organization and strategies are very useful since I can see the separation between the races is being erased.”
There was a clear expression of admiration on the faces of Nathan as he spoke.
When they arrived at the City of the Sun, the three Magus could not help but be surprised by how good the quality of life was.
What impresses them the most was the fact that the diverse races interacted with each other and did not confine themselves to their own people, something very common to see in organizations that had groups with different origins.
The reason for their unity was due to the rewards being multiplied by a factor of 1.5 every time once more than one race was part of a group that performed a mission.
In normal missions, there was not much effect, but in those that they risked their lives and had to always have the back of the other, the bonds that were created were very deep, and something that created reverberations among the entire members of their tribes.
That was only one of the strategies that Dante put in motion to motivate the thousands of members of the clan to not only increase their power as individuals but also as a single entity that can work as one, under the leadership of someone.
To achieve that type of goal, an intense sense of belonging must be created in the diverse tribes and races, so they see the clan not only as an organization that they joined but a home for which they are willing to die.
Dante chose to create a sense of safety and happiness among the people of the diverse races, and he approached that by focusing on their children.
The events in which the Daybreak clan chose to torture a group of Magus that had a Rank 2 among them, and fight against a Rank 3 Magus all because they dare try to harm a couple of frog-people children made all the races extremely satisfied.
More plans were made after this, in which the children could attend a school where they were taught all types of magic knowledge, history, war strategies among other things.
Although the children did not find this very useful, rewards were implemented so those who prove their hard work will obtain help from the Sunlight Core, to make their advance as Sunlight Champion easier.
The satisfaction that the parents and elders of the tribes feel seeing their young ones not only safely increase in power but also obtain the skill so they could choose all types of paths in the future was immense.
Seeing their families and friends grow, in a place where they were safe and allowed them to increase their power, made those races that were fighting just to survive not too long ago feel like they were in a dream.
Zatiel did not have much to say about Nathan's compliments since from the moment the first tribes arrived at the tower, he handed all the responsibilities of management to Dante.
The boy was perfect for the job thanks to the Elder Brain allowing him to do thousands of tasks at the same time, displaying one hundred percent of his abilities.
”Thank, I don't want to be rude, but I have a lot of things to do and too little time, so we should go right to business.”
Zatiel did not like courtesy, especially when he had so much work left, but since he had a good impression of these people, he was being polite.
”Oh, yes. Sorry for the delay but the information that you wanted, is even more special than I thought, and although your payment will be enough, the way to deliver the information will be through this.”
Nathan took a white orb from his rings carrying all sorts of inscriptions over it.
Zatiel was surprised when he saw the orb since even with all his knowledge, he had no idea what it was.
But Nathan immediately explained its effect and why he was using it to give the information.
”This is known as the orb of distortion, and when I activate it, the message with the information that you want will be reproduced, but although you will have complete access to that information if you try to share it with someone else, your memories about that information will be clouded. Are you still willing to go with the transaction?”
Nathan explained very carefully the effect of the orb and was waiting for Zatiel's answer.
