As Glaze killed all the survivors who were running away he reached the place where Charlotte went to.

The few talents that old man tried to protect were dead on the ground and the old man's legs were burnt to a crisp with only his upper body remaining barely alive, as he got closer she said "Ara, have you taken care of everyone? I have preserved this pig for you to test your Level Drain Skill, why don't you give it a try ?" said she pointing towards the barely alive man with a smile.

"Thank you Charlotte , let me give this a try" said Glaze with goosebumps seeing a Level 23 Expert in such a state, he took out his Blood River Blade and slashed the blade towards the old man, the river of blood cut the old man's body vertically and split him in two as he died instantly.

*ting*

*You have killed a Level 23 Expert*

*Level Drain Activated*

As the notification ringed the dead body of the old man started to dry up as it disintegrated into a blue light that surrounded glaze and was absorbed by his body.

*You have gained 2 Levels*

*Current Level: 15*

*You have gained 2 Magic Points and 1 Skill Point*

*Your Blood River Blade skill has leveled up, Current Level: 2*

*The river of blood can now affect already dead people and absorb their mana and life force to replenish yours*

"Looks like I leveled up, thanks Charlotte," said Glaze with a smile looking at his hands

"Fufu, don't worry about it, I said didn't I? I'll level you up in no time" said she as she dusted off her hands

"While I was coming here I overheard the escaping members trying to get to Neverwinter, is there any connection between the Aquilia Family and Neverwinter ?" asked Glaze recounting that trio.

"Hm, there have been some marriages between the Aquilia family and the noble houses of Neverwinter, but Aquilia family is far older than Neverwinter itself so it's hard to believe they would bow to them," said Charlotte as she rested her chin on her thin fingers.

"Aquilia family is older than Neverwinter?" asked Glaze shocked.

"Yes , Neverwinter is not very old , they only became so powerful in the past 1000 years, before this they were just a small state in the north, afterward they started to rapidly gain power and started expanding but since they were small the rest of the Kingdoms didn't pay much attention and this negligence cost them a lot.

By the time they realized the potential and power of Neverwinter, it was too late, they had become so powerful that they soon became the Strongest Human Kingdom in terms of military strength" said the Princess in deep thought.

"They could have spied for Neverwinter. If Neverwinter is as powerful as you say then it's not that hard to imagine a Noble Family who is stuck in a position for generations would fall to their side for power" said Glaze as he walked away from the ruins with Charlotte following by his side.

"We need some sort of information gathering network, we can make an organization," said Glaze as he thought back to the Assassination Magic Book in the system, "Charlotte, how much money is there in the royal treasury?" asked he.

"100 Billion maybe, somewhere around that. Don't look so shocked, we are a very old Kingdom after all," said she without even hesitating to share such information, she no longer cared about the Kingdom, the only one she cared about was right beside her.

"100 Billion Gold, that's a lot of money," said Glaze as they walked towards the market area.

"Ara, it's not 100 Billion Gold, its 100 Billion Magic Crystals, as for gold there's probably Trillions of it in the treasury, fufu," said she nonchalantly while Glaze by her side had a mini heart attack.

"So, why not just steal that money? You're the Crown Princess, we can use that money to build a foundation in this Kingdom, make an organization that can gather information in not just the Kingdom but the entire Human Realm and kill everyone who stands in our path" said he as they continued walking while everyone else got out of their way completely terrified.

"Alright, leave it to me. I'll take care of that gold, who's gonna stop me now?" said she with an evil smile as she put her arm around Glaze and walked happily. "Where are we going? Anything you need ?" she asked as she looked at Glaze curiously.

They soon reached the Slave Market, slavery was legal in this world after all, " I have this new Magic that I received, being the Hero, I have access to a virtual shop where I can buy stuff including magic, one of those magic was a powerful Slave Magic, we can use that to create our organization, what better recruits than slaves ? they would fall easily into the control of the Magic and it would be easy to brainwash these young men and women" said he as he walked into the Slave Market with Charlotte.

The owner and everyone working there got a heart attack the moment they saw these two entering, these two just eradicated one of the oldest noble houses in the Kingdom and were now casually taking a stroll in the Market and shopped as if nothing happened.

The owner gulped as he went to receive them and got on his knees, so did everyone else as he said " Your Highness and Esteemed Hero, thank you f-for gracing this humble m-market, what can I-I do for you ?" said he with his hands shaking.

Glaze had not even activated his Intimidation skill, "All your slaves are now mine." said he as he activated Destruction God's Intimidation , these poor chaps were less than Level 10, they were completely suppressed with no power remaining in their bodies as they plopped down and were completely terrified with fear.

"You c-c-can take everything d-dear hero, everything is you-yours, don't kill this o-old man," said the owner scared out of his mind thinking he was about to be killed and was wondering how he offended this ruthless hero.

"Hand over your magic seal and all of you get ready to transport everyone to Lord Lockhart's Palace, it has recently finished construction," said Charlotte with a glare as the owner weakly handed over his magic seal and everyone got to work.

Why use money when you can just threaten people, thought Glaze with a smile as he walked inside to the place where all the slaves were held, all of them being women, as he walked in they wimped away further , they had seen how terrifying this guy was as he suppressed all the slave traders who had oppressed them for their entire lives, without lifting a finger, they did not dare say a word.

"You all, are now working for me, Lord Glaze Lockhart, the Hero," said Glaze as he looked at them as he unlocked their slave collars with the Magical Seal of the owner.

System, show me their stats in brief.

*ting*

*Most of them are Level 1, barely capable of using magic, there's a few that are higher but only 2 that are above Level 5*

*Hero's Luck*

*You have unlocked a new function of the System by checking the stats of so many people, you can now check the talent of people*

Hm, was that because of Hero's Luck, so it affects even the System? thought Glaze as he channeled his mana casting the Divine Slave Magic on all of these slaves, his hands were covered in a red light as it pierced the chests of all the slaves , they were shocked thinking they were about to be killed right after they were released from their collars, but then realized nothing happened , then they saw a pattern appear on all of their chests which glowed red but then completely disappeared.

"You all are under my magic now, if you disobey, I can kill you with just a thought. Do you understand?" said Glaze in a loud voice.

"Yes, Master," said everyone with a shaky voice as they were still terrified and were uncertain what this new Master was going to do to them.

"Follow those traders to my palace, I will meet you there and tell you what you need to do from now," said Glaze as he turned back and went out of the market.

As he walked back he thought back to one girl who was completely calm among the group of slaves, she was scared , he could feel it but she did a good job not showing it , she was one of the two who were above Level 5, a Level 7 girl with long black hair , she wasn't curvy at all and was completely flat but there was something in her eyes that caught him by surprise, something that no one else had, hope.
