Holy Akashic Conqueror 165 New Holy Imperial Knights

To be truthful, no one among the three of them changed. All three of them looked like before, only some subtle changed were done. For example, Itori looked more beautiful than before, at least from Lucien's perspective.

"So all three of you already finished, splendid."

Said Lucien as he saw all three of them. Tatara and Arima, just looked at him, while nodding their heads and Itori just rushed at him and immediately hugged him.

"And you are even more beautiful than before my dear."

Said Lucien as he kissed his fianceé on her forehead. Then he turned his attention from Itori who was happily hugging his arm, to Arima and Tatara.

"Come you two. You will have an audience with my father and he would officially appoint you like the new Holy Imperial Knights. Then you will get all relevant information and resources so you can start your cultivation and become strong to honor your t.i.tles. Itori my dear, you will go to your room and change your clothes and my mother would tell you everything you need to know."

Both of them nodded their heads and followed Lucien, while Itori guided by butler was being led to he room.

"So first thing you need to know, that when will be appointed as Holy Imperial Knights, you would immediately become people with the highest-ranked n.o.ble t.i.tle after Imperial Family. Also, as Holy Imperial Knights, you take orders only from Crown Prince alas me, Emperor or Protector. In the future, each of you would be responsible for managing territory."

Being Holy Imperial Knight was something more than an empty t.i.tle. In the hierarchy of Empire, they were in the top of the pyramid, immediately after the Imperial Family. In the future, they would be responsible for overseeing the territory.

After a short time, they arrived at the room, where his father and several other people were waiting. Four of them were Holy Imperial Knights as they stood behind Emperor. Lucien then walked to them and sat next to his father and looked at the ceremony.

"Holy Imperial Knight N0.4 candidate Arima Kishō came forward."

Said Asmodeus as Arima Kishō came before them and knelt on the right knee.

"Do you swear to be loyal to the Holy Niflheim Empire and protect its subjects and nation?"

And so the ceremony has begun.

"I swear!"

Answered Arima Kishō.

"Then I, in my name as Asmodeus Etras di Aeon, Emperor of the Holy Niflheim Empire appoint you as N0.4 Holy Imperial Knight."

Said Asmodeus with imposing voice. After that, Arima Kishō went back and there was time for the next person.

"Holy Imperial Knight N0.5 candidate Shen Tatara came forward"

Said Asmodeus as Shen Tatara came before them and knelt on the right knee.

"Do you swear to be loyal to the Holy Niflheim Empire and protect its subjects and nation?"

"I swear!"

Answered Shen Tatara.

"Then I, in my name as Asmodeus Etras di Aeon, Emperor of the Holy Niflheim Empire appoint you as N0.5 Holy Imperial Knight."

After that, the whole ceremony was already done. Asmodeus and Lucien remained in the room together with Commander Nalthos, while everyone else left for their own things. Arima and Tatara also left and waited for Commander Nalthos to finish the discussion.

"Commander Nalthos how is the state of our soldiers?"

Asked his father Asmodeus, as they were already very close to the G.o.d-Devil Plane, as they would arrive only after two and a half years. All Magitek Infantry Soldiers have already been upgraded and prepared.

"We currently have 150 soldiers all at the Advanced-Phase Viscount-Rank in terms of Sacred Body Refining System and two of them reached even Early-Phase Count-Rank, all able prepared to fight. Still, in the language of their cultivation system, we are only around Type 5 Divine Warrior so it would be best for us to find some weaker worlds to process resources and raise our strength to a much higher level, or we will be annihilated utterly."

All of the people present nodded as it was certainly the truth.

"We now have only around two and a half years, so that is not much time and soon we would be arriving at the G.o.d-Devil Plane."

=============================================

After discussing more important things regarding the army and other things, Lucien arrived back at his chambers, to find that Itori was reading some book about Sacred Body Refining System. After she finished the Sacred Devourification Process, she would immediately start cultivating and building the foundation for future cultivation.

"h.e.l.lo, my darling wife."

Greeted Lucien as he entered the room, to which his wife showed a slight smile as she continued reading her book about the Sacred Body Refining System without a second thought. There were only around two years remaining till the arrival to the G.o.d-Devil Plane, so she needed every second available to improve herself to fight and be victorious.

"So what now, it turned you into the diligent bookworm, my dear?"

Asked Lucien an amused tone as he watched his beloved fianceé reading the book.

"Not bookworm, but your mother talked about the future and that I will be required to fight on the frontlines. Also, I don't like the fact that I am too much behind your other fianceé, Seira. From mother-in-law I heard that she already reached the Viscount-Rank, already nearing the Count-Rank in a short time."

Said Itori with a low voice as she looked at Lucien who was sitting in front of her, preparing to drink his favorite green tea.

"I see. Hmm... with enough resources and right cultivation methods, you could probably reacht eh Viscount-Rank in Sacred Body Refininement System in two or three years. In regards to Immortal Cultivation, that would heavily depend on your talent, but even with that, we could do something. For now, you need to focus on the Sacred Body Refining System to reach the Viscount-Rank before we reach the G.o.d-Devil Plane and then you will have a very good chance to quickly reach the higher stages of the cultivation."
