After I got what I wanted at first from the Inheritance Vault, I decided it was time to return back to the Baator and to the Empire to prepare for the Jihad against the Warlocks as the Holy War had already sent out its call.

I also needed to check up on my familiars, as I felt that Dou Dou was very close to the next evolution to the Lord-Class as she digested too many fertilizers and rare things that really sped up her evolution.

Venelana was happy to depart from the Noscent Plane, while Hela decided to remain here as she wanted to complete her work. Additionally, she was also nearing her breakthrough to the Paramount God, as she took an enormous amount of Divine Crystals from the Inheritance Vaults and was currently using them to achieve a breakthrough.

Baator, 9th Layer - Nessuss, Holy Imperial Capital of Anor Londo, Imperial Palace.

After we exited the Dimensional Gate, there was some kind of welcome committee consisting of Sirzechs and whatever members of the Imperial House who were at the time located at the Imperial Capital Anor Londo.

I saw Serafall, Abraxas, and Sigmar was unsurprisingly not present, though his wives Yasaka and Rossweisse were here, together with my granddaughter Kunou who grew to a beautiful lady. Unforutanly for her, she was still unmarried as her father successfully managed to scare everyone who approached his daughter.

'He is even worse than me in that aspect.'

I thought in my head as Sirzechs came to us before I could look around more.

"Father, Mother."

He greeted us in a more polite tone, while Vena, as usual, ignored most of the protocols and jumped on him, giving her son a big hug.

Fortunately, Fia was away; currently, she was in the first layer of the Baator, Avernus, so Vena was saved from her scolding and lecture on how to behave.

After everyone exchanged their greeting, Sirzechs and I departed to the solar in the Imperial Place to have a discussion about the upcoming Holy War against the Warlocks and the usage of the Inheritance Vaults from the Noscent Plane.

"So, how is the distribution from the first one going on?"

I asked Sirzechs as we sat down on the sofas at the solar.

"Most of the resources were given to the Custodians, Sardaukar or Khaos Brigade, from which the Custodians got more than 60%."

Stated Sirzechs.

"Why that much?"

"The Chaos Imperishable Bead and the Taboo Text that you brought back from the Feisuo Plane has finally been to some use, and combined with our own research and texts obtained from the first Inheritance Vault; we managed to devise a new path for Devils, without comprehending the Laws, mainly focusing on the body refinement and artificially expanded energy reserves."

Stated Sirzechs as this really caught up my interest.

"Results?"

I stated a simple question.

"As expected, compared to the Law Comprehension Path, it is greatly lacking, but surprisingly, it is still superior to the normal Warlock Monarch and Holy Spirit Warlocks. Taboo Text, which acted as the base for this method, focuses on unnatural body strengthening and body refining aspects, which we managed to combine with Arcane Methods of expanding the Demonic Energy Reserves, creating a whole new path for Devils who are unable to comprehend the Laws. Right now, we are adjusting this method for Fallen Angels as they are the only species with a complicated path."

This was unexpectedly a piece of very good news.

I always knew that this would become a problem sooner or later, as talent for Law Comprehension was very rare, and it was the reason why Chthonian Empire had so few high-end powerhouses, even after plundering resources here and there for more than two millennia.

While the Law Comprehension Path that gave birth Apocalypse-Class, was specifically for very high combat prowess that was focused on quality. Comprehending Laws was hard; thus, there was a need to find another path for the people who didn't have an aptitude for Law Comprehension, as we needed more powerhouses.

"Transfer more resources to this endeavor and open part of the Imperial Vaults; we need to increase the collective strength of the Custodians as much as possible before Jihad against the Warlocks. We must focus on cultivating as many higher-end powerhouses as possible to weigh out the odds."

I ordered as Sirzechs nodded in agreement.

In truth, the policies of the Empire were pretty lax towards the most loyal Imperial Forces, such as the three mentioned above. They always got most of the resources and with great discount on the merits, as all three of them were the most loyal and most fanatical.

"I have also given orders to expand the Mech Army. Currently, we have around 100 Million Tier 8 Mechs and 50 Tier 9 Mechs, which is too little, compared to the amount that Warlock Dynasties have at their disposal collectively. Even though their golems are of a lower quality, their quantity would be in billions, and they would drown us in pure numbers."

Said my son, as I agreed with this completely.

Alas, there was nothing that could be done about it, as that was the difference in the foundation between the factions.

"After I stabilize my strength, we will go and strike at the Dawn Lord and Sunwhat Alliance or whatever crap they are calling themselves; we need to cut out the weaker Warlock Factions before they are forced to ally with each other... that would be a problem if that happened. Right now, they are still fractured and weak, meaning it is our opportunity."

I mentioned my plans, though that would happen only after some years, as I would need several years to stabilize my Class completely.

"We are already tailing the forces of the Dawn Lord, and it is Sunrise Alliance, by the way. We are monitoring everywhere he is going; currently, we located one particular plane, where he has some kind of secret outpost, where he stops every time before he goes back to the Heaven Plane."

Answered Sirzechs.
