"You have earned really grand merit yourself this time, my daughter."

I said to Rias as we sat inside her office in the Occult Research Club Building.

"According to the Imperial Law, you can exchange the merit, so what do you wish for?"

I asked as I studied her expression and wondered what she would ask for.

"I want part of my merit to be exchanged to raise my title to Imperial Lord, and the rest I want to exchange for resources for training."

I was somewhat surprised by her request.

'It seems she really matured... if it was still old Rias, she would turn everything to restore her title and return to the Imperial Capital.'

"It seems that you have finally become an adult... good, very good. Everything shall be done by tomorrow, and your resources will arrive this evening."

I praised her after hearing her decision.

"Thank you, father."

She said in a quiet voice.

"Also, I have an additional mission for you."

I said as I conjured something to drink as I was thirsty.

"What mission?"

Asked Rias.

"You will go to Kyoto and bring a message for leaders of Youkai Factions at a later date."

I said lightly.

After Takamagahara was destroyed, I planned to coerce both Youkai Factions to migrate to the Empire. Many Youkai have strong, miraculous, and potent abilities and have the potential to reach the high levels of power that I planned to use.

"Yes, father."

Answered Rias.

During this mission, she would learn to negotiate and diplomacy, which were essential skills for anyone of the Imperial House.

"Also, there is an extraordinary mission for you to complete additionally."

I said in a severe tone as Rias perked up, hearing my words.

"What special mission?"

She seemed curious.

"As you know, the leader of the Western Youkai Faction Yasaka has a daughter named Kunou, around 12 or 13 years old. What I want is to take this jade with you and see if there is bloodline resonance between it and Yasaka's daughter. She was born a short time after your elder brother Simgar disappeared for a while, and after she was born, I felt something stir in my bloodline, but it was suppressed soon."

I stated as Rias's eyes widened in shock hearing my suggestion.

It was highly possible that my idiotic son didn't even know that he had a daughter with Yasaka. Or rather, due to his battle maniac tendencies and brash personality, after Yasaka found that she was pregnant, she severed ties with him and didn't even tell him that she was pregnant with his child.

Truth to be told, I would probably do the same thing in her place.

It would explain that stir I have felt in my bloodline, though her if Kunou was really my granddaughter, then her bloodline from Sigmar's side didn't awaken completely, or else I would have clearly felt it, not in just in the form of the stir of bloodline.

"After you confirm it, do nothing and just inform me directly."

I stated as I needed to handle this carefully.

If Hela found out about it... then she would break Sigmar into two.

"Of course, father."

Answered Rias swiftly as this was really a precarious situation.

"And before that all, I have decided to hold a conference between Empire, Grigori, and Heaven. It is time for Grigori to merge into the Empire as it was planned and make some things clear with the Heaven."

I stated with a serious voice.

"I will prepare everything with Sona."

Said Rias as I smiled with satisfaction.

Afterward, I talked with Rias about more things and asked about some things that Vena told me to do; most of them were about when she would have grandchildren from Rias because Abrasax was entering his more rebellious phase and didn't want to cuddle with his grandmother to which Vena was sad, and she wanted another grandchild.

As I left the Occult Research Club building, I opened my Holo-Brain and contacted the Patriarch of the Pendragon Family, who became one of the major Noble Houses of the Empire and held the title of the Chthonian Lord. And with Arthur, I had a hunch that it won't be long before they are promoted to the High Lord, as Arthur has the potential to reach Apocalypse-Class in the Law of Sword.

"Your Imperial Majesty."

Said the voice of Uther Pendragon, who was basically an older version of Arthur, just with a beard.

"I have obtained the remaining six fragments of the Excalibur. You can bring them to Grandmaster Durin to reforge them."

I said to Uther Pendragon as I could see tears escaping his eyes.

It was understandable that after the death of King Arthur, Heaven stole the Excalibur from the Pendragon Family, and they barely survived the attack of Heaven on them during that time.

They were gathering the fragments through the centuries, but in vain, as their power was not enough to even confront the Church who held the fragments.

So he was beyond happy to live to see the Excalibur in his former glory after Grandmaster Durin will regorge it.

"I will depart to Ironforge and notify Arthur."

Ironforge was home to all dwarves throughout the Empire and was the blacksmithing, runesmithing, and alchemy capital of the Empire.

Grandmaster During was the most skilled blacksmith and runesmith of the Empire that was also extremely well versed in Alchemy and Magic.

Excalibur was a Monarch Grade Artifact of the Growth Type that had the potential to grow stronger. If Arthur reached Apocalypse-Class, he would be able to bring out the full power of Excalibur.

Currently, I have dispatched Sardaukar to pacify a particular civilization in a nearby galaxy. It was a civilization of humans that had developed in a hostile world, were innately physically very strong, and developed a martial society.

Sardaukar Force didn't have a long list of battles as they were only recently established, only a few years back, so they needed something to temper them through fire and blood.
