"So, how are the preliminary assumptions of what was left after Warlocks?"

I asked as I visited Grayfia, who was in charge of organizing everything we found after taking over the Canghzi Plane.

"Lot... even if we don't count what Noble Houses and powerful experts captured on their own and got their cut of 80%, we are still talking about an enormous amount of resources left by the Warlock Factions. Fortunately, no one managed to escape the Canghzi Plane. The majority of the population was either killed during conquest as collateral damage or killed in combat. Those who managed to survive are right now being hunted down by Magical Beasts we released."

Answered Grayfia as I expected something like this.

Warlocks were one of the oldest Paths in the Universe, and there were countless factions, be it on the Surface World or in the Core World, and we needed to search every nook and cranny through the entire plane before I would let Baator devour the Canghzi Plane.

Plenty of inheritance sites and legacies should be hidden across the entire plane. After the conquest ended, Grayfia arrived at the Canghzi Plane to organize all things because it was found out I sucked at paperwork, and in truth, I didn't even want to deal with it, and my idiotic son Sirzechs disappeared somewhere with Serafall...

"Right now, our priority should be digesting the entire Canghzi Plane and everything we snatched from the Warlocks after the conquest. Additionally, let the Executioner Temple screen through every captured territory if we didn't miss something and start selling slaves. Have the Blood Races and others contacted us already?"

The Slave business was one of the most profitable things the Chthonian Empire did. Usually, when we conquered some plane, and the population wasn't instantly exterminated due to some reasons, then the best way to dispose of them was to sell them to other species.

Such species were, of course, Blood Races of the Divine Blood Plane who needed large quantities of blood, Dragons from the various planes who wanted cheap food, and some Magical Beasts Hegemons who established their own factions and, similarly to dragons, wanted those people as food.

"Of course, this morning, representatives of several True Ancestors, Primordial Dragons, and Monster Lords arrived at the Baator and are currently negotiating the prices with Venelana as they would be all sold through the IMC."

If this was a cartoon, my eyes would have a symbol of gold in them because we would be selling billions of humans and other races from the conquered territories, and the riches we would make on it would be staggering.

The reason Grayfia decided to sell them through the IMC was simple.

All profit would directly go to the Imperial House.

If it was sold through the Empire, then all profit would go to the Imperial Treasury.

I established this rule when creating an Empire so the later generation won't be able to finance their living styles and luxury with the national money but would be forced to use their own.

"Vene would be able to raise the price to the top, but impose some conditions on them and especially the one they must help in transportation of the slaves... we have captured basically billions of people, and countless of them are relatively powerful warlocks for lesser standards and could cause problems during the transportation."

I said as I didn't want to see any problems during this deal.

"Of course, I will tell them to icnreae a security, and we can choose one plane which would act as a transitory one for the slaves."

One of the things we were selling just because we had too much of it were several captured Holy Spirit Warlocks and the corpses of some of them. That alone would fetch an astronomical price for even a single one, as Kindreds could significantly advance their strength by devouring their blood.

Of course, the corpses of Warlock Emperor and their blood weren't put on sale. Still, they were reserved for our own citizens who can redeem them with merits or would get them as a reward for achievements. I already sent several tens of liters of their blood to the Alucard and Brunestud so they could increase their strength.

Ufnrotuanely, from the Warlock Sovereign Xuanyuan, not even a soul remained after the world was done with him and The End was done with him, and if I was a bit more powerful, I could have reaped greater benefits.

I then grabbed my wife at her waist, as she yelped in surprise and put Fia on my lap, as I was hugging her close to me.

"Now is not the appropriate time for such acts."

Muttered Grayfia as she attempted to resist, but to no avail, and in the end, she just stayed in my embrace.

"I heard that the location of the Inheritance Tomb of the Golem Emperor was finally discovered and unsealed... I plan to enter that place by myself."

I said because, as a fan of Golems, I cannot wait to rob the inheritance of the Golem Emperor. Golem Dynasty was one of the two Warlock Dynasties that originated from the Canghzi Plane but weren't located here, or rather contrary to the Dawn Dynasty, which left, this one collapsed.

Apparently, in his later years, the Golem Emperor went a bit mad and basically refined most of his servants into living golems or killed them; this included some of the powerful Great Step Holy Spirit Warlocks.

When people rose against him in rebellion, he just went puff, and nobody heard about him or his court ever again. Thus his Golem Dynasty collapsed without any resistance and became an annals of history.

It was told in rumors that billions of golems disappeared together with the Golem Emperor, and his inheritance of superior golem refining method was buried with him if he ever died. Though, there are even rumors that he refined himself into some kind of ultimate golem.
