In the next few minutes, she received dozens of small wounds on her body, forcing her to heal herself by spending mana. The wounds were not deep enough to kill her, but they were enough to require considerable effort.
She tried dozens of spells, from water explosions to condensing steam to hide her presence. Practically everything was used, but the problem was that she only needed to know the trick behind the two domains. If she forced a spiritual sense with her mana, she could leave Felix’s domain, which was no more than 10 meters away.
Slowly, her life began to flash before her eyes as she accepted the fact that she was going to die. Considering how the two opponents were toying with her, it would be even more painful. She didn’t know what she had specifically done to these two people.
POOFT! Her body fell unconscious to the ground after Kayden knocked her down with a specific mana attack to the head. It was a simple knockout spell on confused opponents. Immediately, he started writing different runes on the ground.
Felix helped him with certain parts and then lay down on the floor with the naked woman. Kayden had told him that the woman would also be his subordinate in command and would have to obey his commands. Felix proved to be a trustworthy cat and deserved this small increase in rank.
With both of them unconscious, a large amount of black mana surged towards the brains of the two living beings and they instantly began to writhe and scream in pain. For every second, mana penetrated a different area and began to perform its functions. A few minutes later, Kayden was finished and was completely exhausted.
"Wake up, Felix," he woke the feline first and spent a few minutes breathing and recovering before waking the woman up.
"Wake up," as soon as he gave the order, the woman woke up disoriented and found herself face-to-face with her two kidnappers. Immediately the memories came back and she tried to run, but there was no mana around her to support her spells.
"I, the god Felix, order you to stop all your movements," the feline spoke in a thick and imposing voice that did not match his appearance at all. The woman didn’t pay attention, but as soon as she tried to move, she realized she couldn’t. "Kneel to the cat emperor," Felix’s new order was obeyed immediately and made the woman recognize her situation.
"What do you want? What did they do to me?" his voice was altered and for the first time in centuries his heart was beating at a ridiculous speed. She looked at the cat who could order her actions and then at the man standing next to him.
It was clear that the feline was the boss between the two, the black-haired youth in front of him was only at the peak of the second realm, while the beast was at the third realm, this was an obvious conclusion.

"Hello, I’m Kayden, from now on you are my slave," Kayden didn’t give the same offer he gave Felix. "I want to get some people from your city to set up my settlement, I want mostly women, all with three spokes and some with two spokes," Kayden threw dozens of information to the woman without caring about her emotions. "You are prohibited from telling about my presence, you are prohibited from killing yourself or trying to put yourself in risky situations and trying to betray me or Felix."
Kayden paused as she took in her new situation. It was something very sudden and she had thousands of doubts in her mind.
"Who exactly are you?" that was the only thing Kayden said.
"I’m from the outside world and I’m here for some events, you don’t need to know more than that. What is your name? Age? Several rays and main skills." Kayden began his interrogation and the woman had to answer.
"My name is Milena Khalil, I have achieved four rays in all my advancements, 110 years of life, and the third level of the third realm, I am a magician specialized in physical and mental healing with the water element," Kayden already expected some things like that.
"In the next few days I want you to make me a list of all the talented people in the city, preferably women, focus on lightning, at least 500 people," Kayden gave some more details to Milena who was completely disoriented by the situation.
"I need more than a few days to not arouse suspicion, how long will I be your slave? I refuse to live in prison," Kayden smiled and…
It began to draw the mana out of her body slowly, causing ridiculous pain to begin to appear in her body. Milena was unable to react while going through the worst pain of her life.
"I think you don’t understand how your situation works. You no longer have free will." Kayden slapped her in the face to get her undivided attention and stopped taking mana from her body. "You will live the rest of your life under my orders. If you are productive, I will let you follow me out of this abyss and into higher ranks in the future."
As soon as Kayden finished speaking, he released any pressure the woman was receiving and left her alone while he left with Felix. In just a few minutes, Milena went through the most traumatic event of her life and even after a few hours, she was still standing in the cave thinking about what happened.
Meanwhile, Kayden studied the people of the city and made a small selection of which ones he would take with him. Several inhabitants who didn’t have many rays of talent still possessed a lot of knowledge. This was necessary to create the next generations of your city.
The location had already been decided. It would be a few thousand kilometers away from where they were, a plain on top of a mountain, surrounded by various biomes and waterfalls that fell from the mountain. This would be ideal for having different types of resources and beasts very close to where they were. Furthermore, the beast that had control of that place was weak and would be easily expelled by Kayden or Felix.
The other three would probably intrude on his presentation, which would not be discreet at all. At that moment, he would take the opportunity to kill them and make the population recognize his strength. With Felix’s help and the surprise factor, he could kill one or two in a matter of seconds.
Over the next few days, Milena killed all the people she had imprisoned in her house and began looking for the people Kayden asked. Every time he finished a list of a few dozen, Kayden would find it and then go see each person.
The selection process took about a full month, with Kayden and Milena working 24 hours a day non-stop. In the end, there were around 350 women and just 150 men, all of varying ages, from children to adults.
Logically, he would have to let people’s families come along, but that was a small factor. Kayden would eliminate them over the years using discreet means that would be considered natural causes, leaving only the best of the best for his city.
"Why are you working so hard to set up your city? Why not just conquer this one?" Milena lost her fear of Kayden as the days went by. The young man was very calm and easy to communicate with. Logically, she was still wary and treated him as her superior.
Kayden was sitting inside the woman’s house while reading some papers in his hand detailing about the strength of the other three wizards of the third realm. Upon hearing the question, he responded without stopping reading.
"I want the next generations to be able to rival me and help me train. In a way, I look for someone who can stand up to me and I need people with the best genes to do that. I will have dozens of children and as the years go by I will eliminate those weaker ones until I reach someone at my level." Kayden revealed a plan that violated any human rights that existed.
Milena was shocked for a few minutes without saying anything. She already knew that Kayden had gotten six lightning bolts and was a complete monster. He wanted to create someone on that level, it was completely surreal. Furthermore, the way he was going to do it was completely inhumane.
Probably, the 150 men could not generate offspring. At most, they could relate to other women. Milena shivered after reasoning all of this and seeing how Kayden said it so naturally.
"Are you… going to have a baby with me?" she asked embarrassedly. His question was logical considering Kayden wanted those with better genes. For a second, the woman was afraid of being tied up in a basement and forced to have children for the rest of her life.
"Yes, but I will do it in a way that is not bad for you. Besides, if you prove yourself to be a good servant, you’ll only have to have one every 20 years." Kayden’s words lingered in his head in two ways, the first as a relief and the second as a threat.
