?Karyk told everyone to return and have some rest as this process was going to last for a few days and no one was going to be left behind.

However, despite his words, none returned home. None of them wanted to lose their places in the line, excited to become stronger as well. They had all seen what happened to the ones that entered first. They also wanted to experience that.

Hundreds of thousands of people slept on the streets, waiting for the next morning.

Meanwhile, Karyk returned to his chamber, not giving any explanation to the Puppet Master who had a lot of questions about what he saw today.

Unfortunately, he had a feeling that Karyk wasn't going to answer him. Still, he told everything that happened today to the Celestial Queen, making sure to leave nothing out.

The Celestial Queen became even more shocked as she heard what happened. It was as if everyday, Karyk was making one miracle after the other.

On the first day, he entered the Land of Chaos and made a deal with her. On the second day, he killed a Pureblood. And on the third day, he turned mixed blood people of the city into Purebloods.

At this rate, she wondered if he even needed her help in the first place. At the rate he was going, it was only a matter of time before he was going to create an army of hundreds of thousands of Purebloods.

Although they were all civilians and had no experience of fighting, but it wasn't something that a little training couldn't solve.

She couldn't help but feel as if Karyk was creating his own Dynasty in this world. She wasn't sure who was going to invade the other world. Instead of Elzerians invading Karyk's world, it was becoming more like Karyk invading their world.

"Just who actually are you...?" She muttered, her expressions grim.

....

In the next morning, Karyk came out of his room and the awakening ceremony once again continued, amidst the great enthusiasm of the citizens.

Every day, tens of thousands of people were awakening in the border city where previously, there was not a single pureblood.

The Ceremony continued for an entire week. The atmosphere of the city had completely changed. The City that was previously weak and lifeless was now filled with life, becoming stronger.

As the ceremony continued, there were a total of Three Hundred Forty Thousand Seven Hundred Purebloods in the city. With that, this city became the City with the most number of Purebloods after the Royal Capital.

After finishing the awakening, Karyk called upon the blacksmiths and craftsmen of the city, instructing them to work day and night to create the best weapons and armor they could.

As for the materials needed for that, he promised them the rarest of materials from the Land of Chaos. He had a deal with the Celestial Queen and didn't worry about materials anymore. The Celestial Dynasty was known for it after all.

Karyk himself even took up the task of learning the art of blacksmithing, spending hours in the forge, hammering and shaping metal.

Meanwhile, he also established a group of skilled individuals who would serve as the city's intelligence network.

Their mission was to gather information about the Purebloods, their movements, and any potential threats to the city. Karyk knew that knowledge was power, and having a strong intelligence network would give them a significant advantage.

In the following weeks, the city underwent a transformation. The citizens trained rigorously, honing their combat skills and becoming stronger with each passing day.

The blacksmiths worked tirelessly, churning out high-quality weapons and armor. The intelligence network grew, gathering valuable information and ensuring the safety of the city.

Karyk's dedication and determination inspired the people. They saw him working alongside them, sweating and toiling to make the city stronger. He had earned their respect and loyalty, and they were willing to follow him to the end.

As time passed, the city started to take shape as a formidable force. Karyk's vision of a city that could stand against the Royals and protect its people was slowly becoming a reality as people started to find that dream more plausible now.

The citizens, once seen as outcasts and vermins, now stood tall and proud, ready to fight for their home, even if it was against the Royal Capital. They were more loyal to Karyk than they were to the Royal Emperor.

But Karyk knew that they were not yet ready to face the full force of the Purebloods and the Royals. He needed more time to train and prepare. With the support of the citizens and his newfound allies, he continued to push forward, determined to make the city unbreakable.

As the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, Karyk's plan started to unfold. The city had become a beacon of hope, a great fortress. The citizens were no longer afraid, but filled with a newfound confidence. 𝒇𝒓𝓮𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝒐𝓿𝓮𝓵.𝒄𝒐𝙢freew(e)bnove(l)

The time had finally come for Karyk to reveal his next move. He gathered the citizens in the central square, where he stood before them, his voice filled with calm.

"Today, I have gathered you all here to inform you about my next action. For the next few weeks or months, I won't be in the city. But that doesn't mean you can relax! I want you to keep being as cautious as before. I don't want any mishaps and I'm not here."

"As for your training, we'll be bringing it to a higher level! I believe you're now ready to put your skills to battle! That's why, when I'm not here, my friend here will be leading you to the land of Chaos," he said, pointing towards the Puppet Master.

"There, you'll face the Undead Beasts. You'll take part in an actual battle. This will be a training after which all of you will become a true warrior!" he exclaimed.

"And when I return, I want to see a different side of you all! I want you all to become even stronger, coldblooded warriors that aren't scared of spilling blood! Do you understand?!" he asked the citizens.

"Yes!" It was as if the entire city roared in unison. Previously, they would've been scared at the thought of entering the Land of Chaos. But now, they weren't.

They had faith in Karyk to even put their lives on the line! If he believed they could do it, they also believed they could!
