Things continued like that for a week until the General Commander suddenly returned to the Red Leaves territory, and he went into a closed-door meeting with both the Dragon Lord and his heir.The meeting lasted the whole morning and afternoon.What they talked about was how the men-at-arms of the different Lords, especially those recently displaced, were acting out. Already, two Lords were killed while the men took full control of towns.The General Commander had already dealt with the situation, but such methods only seemed to breed more of the same. Even the new Dukes were having trouble controlling the men under them as the rebellion of revenge spread throughout the whole Region.After a lot of back and forth, they decided to go with Quinn's idea of a war, putting every force under the Region Army. That would also draw a clear line: join the army or you are the Dragon's enemy!At the same time, two assassination forces would be created. One to filter things in the Regional Army and

In just a day, Quinn's name spread once again throughout the Empire, and now people were actually more interested in him and wanted to know more about the Dragon Heir.Meanwhile, at the same time, exactly when Quinn used the War Artifact, something happened.It happened in Burnis City.The city was one that fell just inside and outside the Western Region, and back in the days it was one of the biggest mines for farming rare crystals that could be used in powering formations, making artifacts, and creating potions.It was a major source of resources for the Drakemonts and the Western Region in the old days, and not only them, since the other half fell outside of the Region, the Emperor also farmed resources, but it slowly dried up.But Burnis City, which was already flourishing, only grew even bigger, turning into a diverse, near lawless border city, particularly involved in all kinds of illegal activities, especially since it had close proximity to three Regions.The Western, the East

Quinn stared at the black feather and his eyes lit up with greed, because he felt an intense hunger to take the feather and eat it.Now that he had completed the first form in core creation, he better understood the amount of power contained in the Phoenix feather and what he could gain by devouring it."Syrax, explain to me once again why I don't just use this feather to cultivate instead of trying to form a core?"'...because there is a law contained within the feather...' Syrax's voice sounded smug.Quinn was on his feet in an instant, his face filled with shock. "What...?"He now knew how incredible Authority and Law were, especially Law, as it was not something that anyone could obtain easily. He looked at the black feather in amazement. "There's something like that in here?"Syrax snorted. '...the feather is a real treasure. I honestly thought that the owner would have come and killed you for it, but they seem to be standing back to see how things will go...'Quinn's eyes sparke

Quinn nodded his acceptance.It was something that would never happen in his last life, but that was then and this was now. Things were different. He had done things differently, and now he was in the position where people could bow to him.Although he still had a lot of things he wanted to do in the future, for the time being he was satisfied with what he had done."Captain Amros, I am going to leave myself in your care," he said to the newly appointed Captain.The Captain bowed. "Thank you, Dragon heir. You do not have to worry about anything. We will protect you with our lives!"Quinn nodded. After all, his life was the most important thing there was.He raised his hand and his red ring glinted, shooting out a beam of light that rapidly expanded into the dragon war construct. Stone wings flapped, dust billowed, and it roared into the sky.Right now, Quinn's power had increased even more.The General Commander had personally gifted him the construct after he heard that he would be g

"Father, we should just leave. He doesn't look that strong. I don't want him!"Quinn gritted his teeth. He didn't want her either. In fact, his mood was growing foul by the second. They blocked his way and began to spout nonsense?After they dared to threaten his life? The only reason he hadn't tried to move against them was because they smelled of Dragons, and then they told him that story—the only connection he had to that strange Blood Spike that was after him.The leader turned to his daughter. "Hush! I've told you not to judge by looks or the aura you feel around people. Those things can be manipulated."He is the Dragon heir, and he must be for some reason. Forgive me, Dragon heir, but what do you think about my proposal?"Quinn shrugged, his voice calm. "From a broad point of view, it's not bad. But then again, why should I trust your words? You appeared through a portal, something that shouldn't be easy. You are not telling me the whole truth."The skeleton man tensed, then sm
