Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World
Chapter 854: The New Powers Of The Consorts
With Kael’s permission, Katari was now going to start handling all of the affairs related to the Dragons.
"Alora, hold on," Kael said. He flicked his fingers and manipulated the golden screens in front of Alora, freezing them in place to display his sovereign control over the system, regardless of who was using it.
Alora’s frown deepened as she wore a mask of confusion, "What?"
"Katari will take over that, you will handle something else," Kael said. Since Katari was going to be building momentum as soon as she woke up, Kael wouldn’t let the others slack off with their future duties.
Seeing that Katari had already taken action so soon, the other consorts were once again reminded of Katari’s nature. Even now, she was still outperforming them.
"Kael, has the honey been managed?" Priya asked at this time. She had also begun to assess the lion system and was reading the logs to see what had changed since Kael had returned.
She noticed that the most recent and significant thing was the conquest of the Bees and immediately thought to make herself useful.
"No, it hasn’t," Kael said, putting his arms behind his back.
"The True Honey has been extracted but it hasn’t been distributed yet," He added, waiting to hear what Priya had to say about it.
Priya nodded, "Hmm, we will need to know who to distribute it to first. Obviously, every lion needs it but we should check everyone and know who to prioritise first.
I can see that in our lion population, we have about fifteen thousand immortals. Impressive, if I’m being honest, but I doubt if those immortals need the True Honey that badly.
Maybe we can prioritize the mortals and strive to increase our Immortal population..."
As Priya talked, what she wanted to do became clearer to her and to the other consorts.
Katari looked away from what she was doing and gazed at Priya. She knew that Kael had always wanted to solve the issue of weakness among the lions and Priya could perhaps help him out with this.
As the King of Kings, he shouldn’t have to do everything by himself, even if he could.
"I like your idea. But do you know how to select those that should be prioritised? I don’t want the True Honey to be wasted on the lazy ones," Kael said.
There was no mention of talent. All lions were talented, even if the talent was not equal, it was high enough on average to not be considered a significant factor in their reason for strength.
Rather, what was important was the resources available to them and their willingness to get stronger.
They may have the will, but they may not have the resources. The same could be said in reverse.
Kael wanted to make sure that the resources would meet the right lions and lionesses and there would be measurable progress.
"I know how," Priya said, nodding her head. Her deep grey eyes scanned Kael from head to toe, unable to hide the flicker of lust behind her mask of seriousness.
It had been long.
"Do you need help?" Kael asked again, noticing the flicker in Priya’s eyes but not saying anything about it.
Priya looked around and saw the other consorts looking at her. Her spirit energy surged and a brief discussion happened between all of them.
Kael waited.
After all of them had come to a very quick conclusion on who was to do what, they all turned to Kael again.
Priya opened her mouth to speak, "I’ll need Olivia, Memphis, and Nalii, with me," She said.
Kael raised his eyebrow. That was four lionesses handling a single project. But he guessed it was for the best. This project would probably not require mission posting but active observation on their own part.
N’bayé was a good observer, he wondered why she didn’t want to join in on this.
"Okay then," Kael said and approved it. From now on, Priya, Olivia, Memphis, and Nalii, would handle the distribution of True Honey until further notice.
Then, Kael leaned back and looked at the rest with an expectant gaze. He wanted to see what affairs they were willing to take.
Ruda and Eidel stepped forward at this moment.
"Kael, we want to lead the missions related to the Ancient Felines," Ruda said, wearing a sick smile as pink electricity courses through her eyes.
"The Ancient Felines?" Kael brought his hand up and rubbed his bearded chin softly.
This was a request backed by the desire for revenge. They didn’t yet know that the Primordial Cheetah was dead, but even if they knew, the main perpetrator behind the assassination, Seth and his father, were still alive.
"You will strictly stay within the frame of affairs related to dealing with the Ancient Felines. Contact me immediately for anything that should warrant my attention, perhaps, a particularly powerful opponent.
This should not prevent the other lions and lionesses and Pride Leaders from creating their own missions related to these things too," Kael said.
He had to put some regulations after all. If he simply agreed, they might accidentally divert all of the Lion Hegemony’s power and resources towards dealing with the Ancient Felines.
That would leave them vulnerable to all other enemies and cause a lot of trouble.
Eidel nodded and they both agreed to Kael’s terms. Vengeance was the goal but it wasn’t the only goal. They had to be flexible and understand that the Ancient Felines were just one of the top priority enemies of the Lion Hegemony.
Kael turned his head and looked at the remaining who were not yet assigned any duties.
Alora, Wei, Chloe, Diane, and N’bayé.
Alora spoke up now, "I, Chloe, and Wei will chart an organisation of activities for the Vassals and Primordials. It seems they are starting to get rowdy," She said.
Well, she wasn’t lying. With two hundred plus Primordials, someone needed to give all of them something to do. An idle mind was a dangerous mind, Kael’s subjects had to be kept busy.
He didn’t want them wondering if it was possible to even escape the loyalty contract. If they did, he would find out. It would be a pity.
Alora and the rest offering to manage their activities was also a little bit of wishful thinking.
Those were Primordials. All of them had their own different appearances and eccentric personalities and they would justify their crazy antics in the most absurd ways.
It was like having to take care of two hundred plus kindergarten children who had the minds of a satellite computer.
Controlling them was almost impossible without Kael having to step in.
But since they wanted to handle it Kael would let them and see what they could do while watching very closely.
"Diane and I will plan ahead for future invasions into other heavens from now on," N’bayé decided to say at this moment.
"Oh," Kael said. N’bayé and Diane are working together. That was an unlikely pair. Diane and Katari or N’bayé and Priya were the usual anytime they were teaming up.
One focused too much on the brain and the other focused too much on the muscles. They were perfect.
Although it was a bit worrying since the brain tended to beat brawn most times and N’bayé was very likely to manipulate Diane into doing things for her.
It was a certainty, it couldn’t be avoided. Not unless there were other people around to do it for her.
Either way, Kael was looking forward to what all his consorts would be doing now that they were awake and had their powers elevated to insane levels.
Speaking of power, none of them was actually releasing the aura of someone who had a legit power base.
Sure, the beat of their superpowered heart was there, and the aura of the energy pool still spilled from them. But that energy pool was now very different and their hearts had undergone serious changes.
Just as it could be felt all of Kael’s consorts no longer had power levels. Literally.
They were now Avatars of the Law of Conquering, or perhaps, Sub-Avatars. There was no need for power levels.
Kael was THE law of Conquering, so technically, they were his Avatars, and Avatars were supposed to be a manifestation or a projection of the Law’s power.
That same logic could now be applied in a much greater sense to Kael’s consorts, all of them were now having energy pools that were projections of Kael’s power.
If one checked now, as Kael had already checked by himself, he no longer had standard lion powers. His access to their powers had already changed. The very nature of their power-sharing had undergone some restructuring.
Before, Kael’s consorts had the powers and the Lionheart. The contract between them allowed Kael to access their powers while they got Conquering Essence.
Now, that was no longer the case.
The All-King was the source of the power in its rawest form. It was through their various Lionhearts that the consort would be able to convert that raw power into the various abilities unique to their Lionheart.
Kael supplied the energy, his consorts simply converted it.
It was no wonder Katari was able to pull Ruda from Planet Gadi. All of them were in technicalities, mobile extensions of the Alphaverse itself.
Although not as strong as Kael, they were just behind in terms of capabilities. All that was left was for them to put their new powers into action.
"Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy," Just when Kael was preparing to gather his consorts to go to a private room for some exercise, a certain demonic lady showed up with Daniella by her side.
