Jack proceeded to learn the technique book.

“If I use this on Therras, it will become even stronger,” Jack said.

“Or you can use it on your Mirage Beast,” Peniel advised. “That copy is a viable target for this skill.”

“Hm… Ah, I see what you are getting at. Mirage Beast can only use standard attacks. If I use this skill on it, the demonized copy will be able to use skills?” Jack asked.

“Yes, even though the skills will differ from the original Therras,” Peniel answered.

“How do the level-ups and star upgrades affect this Demonize Pet skill?” Jack asked.

“Each level increased the pet’s attributes by 5% and its duration by 1.5 minutes. Depending on the pet, the more levels this skill has, the more extra skills might appear. Every star increased the damage boost by 1% damage and the damage reduction by 2%.”

“So, if fully max, this skill will last one hour,” Jack said. “The duration of my max-level Mirage Beast is thirty minutes. Adding the effect of my Amulet of Summoning, it lasts one hour. If the Demonize Pet is also max leveled, Therras’ copy will be in demon form for its entire duration.”

“That’s correct,” Peniel nodded.

“Well, either Therras or its copy, I will use this skill following the situation. Thanks for letting me know,” Jack said.

The next morning, Jack went to the throne room. John informed him that several special techs appeared in the military research path after the joint drills with the armies from other countries. These techs were Coordinated Strike: Verremor, Rank: 1, Coordinated Strike: Sangrod, Rank: 1, and Coordinated Strike: Palgrost, Rank: 1.

Jack argued that John had sent the different country armies to different locations, so what’s the point of learning these techs? John returned that there would be times when their army would strike the same opponent. These techs would give them an extra edge then.

There was also the mana cannon that was still being researched. It was halfway learned by now. John asked Jack to complete the research using his ruling powers.

It was not yet the day when Jack received the monthly ruling powers from his sovereign levels. It was still thirteen days for that, but he received 10 ruling powers from the Boundless Cache.I think you should take a look at

He had also completed four affairs. Three with perfect results and one with a good result, netting him 370,000 merit points and 15 ruling powers. These merit points elevated Jack’s sovereign level to level 15, earning another 10 ruling powers.

He gained a new sovereign power to banish a guild at this level, but he didn’t need it for now. If Warriors of Solidarity were still in Themisphere, he would have a target for using this new sovereign power.

The Warriors of Solidarity who supported World Maker had left Themisphere on their own accord and moved to Liguritudum. The reason for their leaving was after the convention, The Man had rallied Everlasting Heavenly Legends’ guild members and stormed the Warriors of Solidarity’s headquarters, earning them the guild hostage token from Warriors of Solidarity

The Warriors of Solidarity then made a deal with World Maker, who helped them defeat a guild in Liguritudum that didn’t submit to World Maker’s rule. Warriors of Solidarity took their guild headquarters. There was now a vacant spot for a new guild headquarters in Themisphere. Jeanny was not around and John was too busy managing the country and the guild, so they just left this vacant spot to fate.

Five new affairs appeared and Jack sent the information to the investigative teams.

Even with all that gain, Jack only had 57 ruling powers. He might be unable to expedite all the techs John requested.

When he entered the throne room, he saw that Thaergood had been waiting for him. Thaergood informed him that some important guests had arrived earlier and requested an audience with him. When Jack asked him who these important guests were, the names shocked him.

The guests were the leaders or representatives from multiple prominent league factions. These factions were the League of Champions, Assassins Guild, Order of Magi, Healer Society, Church of Creation, Blacksmith Circle, Trade Association, House of Culinary, and the Alchemist Union. 

Hearing the names, Jack asked Thaergood to hurry and invite those people in. He went and sat on the throne while waiting. He fidgeted around on his throne. He looked around making sure his posture wasn’t weird. He wished Grace was here.

“Why are you so nervous? You are the king, for goodness sake,” Peniel ridiculed.

“Shut up,” Jack scolded.

Nine people came in with Thaergood. Some Jack recognized and some he didn’t. The ones he knew were Ragorth, Hashi, Ducasse, Willem, Haestus, and Janus. The Janus here was the real one, not his young clones.

Thaergood introduced these guests one by one. From his introduction, Jack learned the identity of the three others he didn’t recognize. One of them, an elf, was Panacea, the leader of the Healer Society. Another was a human named Paul, the leader of the Church of Creation. The last one was a dwarf named Edward. He was the newly appointed leader of the Alchemist Union after the previous leader, Alphons, was murdered.

They all greeted Jack with a bow. Jack stood up and gave them a salute.

“Might I ask what brings you all here together?” Jack asked.

Ragorth took the lead to answer for everyone. “After what happened yesterday, Hashi, Janus, and I called everyone to gather last night and we have had a discussion. We owe it to King Storm Wind for helping us solve the predicament regarding these serial murders. There were more league factions indebted to King Storm Wind’s act, but the nine of us here represented the others to say our thanks.”

“There is no need to be so courteous. I’m just glad I can help,” Jack said.

“Your humility is inspirational,” Edward said.

Peniel, who was leaning beside Jack’s head, whispered, “He is not.” Luckily, no one heard her. Jack nudged his head to throw the fairy off balance.

Panacea came out and said, “King Storm Wind, Andrea told me you wish for our faction’s blessing. If you still wish it, I will gladly give it.”
