"My Lord, Can I suggest something to you?" Maxine asked when Michael was about to leave the room. Michael turned his head to look at her,

"Go ahead"

"Instead of buying a warship from Gisel, we should buy one from the pirates yard. They have more choices"

Michael thought about it for a few seconds before turning the other side to look at Gibson,

"What do you think Gibson?"

"Lady Maxine is right, Lord Lucifer. Pirates build best warships in the entire southern continent"

What Gibson said didn't surprise Michael much. There was an unwritten rule about a kingdom having naval power in the Southern Continent. If one kingdom began to build its naval power, the three pirate captains would wage war against the kingdom and destroy the kingdom before it could become a threat to them. This was how the pirates have been ruling the oceans of the southern continent for hundreds of years.

The combined power of the pirate lords was not something to be taken lightly. Some senates wanted to increase their air force by building flying warships but the pirate lords made an example of them by destroying the kingdom overnight by pillaging and destroying the kingdom.

Each kingdom was allowed to have only a small number of warships and airships. The pirates didn't care about soldiers and ground forces as no matter how many soldiers a kingdom had, without enough warships, they wouldn't be able to touch the pirates in the sea.

"Since you were a pirate captain served under Corey, I assume you have some contacts in pirates yard,"

Maxine nodded,

"Speaking of Corey, who are the other two pirate lords?"

"Gibbes 'Blackmane' Jett, Hobson 'Rum Lover' Vance" Michael took a mental note in his head. Previously he heard about the pirate lord Maxine was serving under, Pirate Lord Corey 'Witch' Drachen.

Most of the pirates tend to have a nickname between their first and last names. The name varied from something that expressed great feats to great shame. Either way, almost 90% of the pirates had a nickname.

"Where are they now?" Michael asked. Instead of approaching them with hostility, he first wanted to try to make them his allies. Killing them would be as easy as crushing an ant to him but getting the loyalty of their underlings and dealing with the revolution afterward would become a headache to him.

"Corey is on her own island, north of pirates cove. It's called the witch island"

Michael listened to her with his head resting on his fist.

"Caius, You have an airship?"

"Of course, he has," Tiberius answered before Caius could open his mouth.

"Good, then we use that and talk about solving your problem in the ship"

Michael closed his eyes behind the mask, willing the system to unequip all the Lucifer armor and equip a brown long coat, white loose shirt, black pants, and black boots. The system also equipped the facial mask and changed his real face to make him look like someone else completely.

Except for the color of his hair, everything changed, including the length of his hair. His hair instantly became shoulder length as most of the men in the Southern continent.

Sadie was stunned to see his face without the skull mask. Of course, she knew this wasn't his real face yet she was stunned to see the face without the mask. He looked rather normal, not like someone who would catch the eyes of a girl instantly such as Ghost or Noah.

"Lead the way" As he stood up from the throne made of skulls and bones, the throne vanished into thin air. Caius quickly nodded, stood up, and then began to lead everyone towards his personal airship.

"How is your kingdom shaping up?" while following Caius out of his room towards the airship, Michael asked Tiberius. Instead of addressing it as a village or a town, Michael addressed it as a kingdom. In the future, Tiberius's kingdom would become a huge part of his army to conquer and defend the entire southern continent from the Guardians if they chose to attack.

"We are still at war with the senates of the other three kingdoms, Lord Lucifer. They are still hunting everyone who dares to rebel. The gladiator schools are spending so much fucking gold to prevent anyone from rebelling against their dominus"

"Caius" After listening to Tiberius without showing any expression on his face, Michael called out Caius as the senator turned back to look at him,

"Let's walk and talk," Michael said, preventing Caius from halting his steps. Then they began to talk while walking.

"How long will it take to visit each of the other three senate ruled kingdoms?"

Caius could sense the air become chilly. He even slightly shuddered after hearing the question.

"Five days if we used full speed"

"I can spare five days to fix Tiberius's problem" Michael shrugged.

No one dared to ask how, even Tiberius remained silent but he could kinda guess what was about to happen to the senators. To be honest, Tiberius couldnt care less about the corrupted politicians who supported the Spartans and dominus killing hundreds of slaves all over the continent.

After taking the mantle of leading the freedom fight, he cared about every single slave. He made his life purpose to erase the slavery from Southern Continent.

Sometimes even Tiberius would wonder what made him like this. Perhaps, the death of Doctorus or perhaps his muscles sickness or just anger towards the nobles who enslaved them.

"What about you Sadie? The girls, how are they holding up?"

Sadie sighed,

"Better than they were two months ago. They are still traumatized but those girls are strong, stronger than me" Her voice stuttered,

"Of course they are. You were wasting your life in delusion. Welcome to the real world" Gibson was stunned. He was kinda hoping Lucifer would say some calming words to her. Instead, he uttered the words that made Sadie's eyes water up.

"People like Guardians will only care about you as much as they can use you. Their care and considerations end where the benefits stop. Turn the tables, use them before they use you, and throw you away like trash"

Although the SilverMoon was on the right track, they still weren't using the SilverMoon girls to their full potential. SilverMoon was basically a huge spy agency with extreme potential to collect information about anyone or anything.? They lacked the leadership, gadgets, and tactics to extract information to their full potential. If Michael could place Sadie as the next sect leader of SilverMoon, he would then show her the ropes and receive hundreds of spies.

"How?" Sadie asked. Her voice stuttered.

"Become the next sect leader," Michael said as though it was a simple matter. He knew SilverMoon is not a sect like Sunrise sect to change the sect leader just like that. However, with Sadie's loyalty towards him, he could infiltrate the sect and get the sect under his thumb little by little.

Eventually, they climbed the stairs to the top floor. The Spartans were staring at them but didn't dare to stop and question Senator Caius. After climbing the stairs for a few minutes, Michael finally saw a door blocking their way with two spartans with spears standing on each side of the white door.

"Senator"

"Senator"

The two Spartans stomped the spear on the ground as their version of bowing. Then one Spartan opened the door to reveal a giant airship on the other side.

"I never flew in a blimp, hmm" the airship in front of him reminded him of blimps. It looked exactly like a blimp. The golden paint almost hurt his eyes with its bright color. Several Spartans and guards of Caius were patrolling around the blimp. From the balcony, Michael could see half of the kingdom.

The outfit of Aria, the rugged look of Tiberius, the beauty of Sadie immediately attracted the eyes of the soldiers. Especially Sadie, few soldiers stopped patrolling for a moment to just stare at her.

Ignoring the soldiers, Michael followed Caius. When they came closer to the blimp, a servant girl wearing a brown maid dress pushed a button as steps came out from the blimp's side.

After climbing the stairs, Michael got into the blimp and was quietly stunned by the interior. He felt like he was transported back to earth as the interior reminded him of the interior of the private jets. The golden chandeliers coupled with glass tables and comfy white sofas made the spacious interior feel cozy.

Tiberius's jaw almost dropped seeing everything before him. Unlike Michael or Sadie, he had never seen something so fancy. Michael saw a minibar with a who seemed to be the bartender, a glass round table in the center, probably for Caius to plan something, several silver orbs attached to the ceiling as well as a rack filled with books and parchments.

"Everyone out" Caius ordered with a domineering voice. The maids and the bartender quickly cleared the area, leaving them alone.

"Where to, my lord?" Caius asked. Rather than taking out the throne and sitting on it, Michael sat on the single-seater sofa beside the window.

"Get us as close as you can to pirates yard"

Caius nodded before walking towards the far end of the blimp.

"Take your seats, ladies and gentlemen"

One by one everyone landed their butts on the sofas. Several moments later, Maxine broke the awkward silence.

"What's the plan Lord Lucifer?"

Gibson was really surprised to see how Maxine could easily talk to Lucifer. Everytime Lucifer's eyes land on him, he would feel a shudder in his heart.

"Nothing much. Just going to take over the four senate ruled kingdoms within five days"

The words that came out of his mouth stunned every single one of them including Maxine. Michael kept cracking his knuckles one by one looking at the figures of the soldiers gradually becoming smaller and smaller.

When he took his gaze away from the window, everyone saw his eyes glow in pure crimson red for a few moments before becoming normal.

It had been almost eighteen months since he came to this world and finally, he decided to be on the offensive against the guardians instead of playing defense. The Southern Continent would be the first to bow to the Dark Lord and be ruled from the shadows by Michael.

"We are the Order of Death"
