Zephyr lounged on the imposing dark throne, a smirk ying on his lips as he surveyed the members of Abyss Gate standing before him.
"Greetings Gate Master!" The members chorused in unison, dropping to one knee in respect.
Zephyr nodded, satisfaction gleaming in his eyes. "Rise," hemanded in a firm yet gentle tone.
As the members stood, none dared to meet Zephyr''s gaze directly, their heads bowed in a mixture of reverence and fear.
"Damm I like this feeling...is this what power truly feels like?" Zephyr mused to himself, a self-satisfied grin on his face.
The thrill of control and authority coursed through him, he now holds the lives of many in his hands.
"rke, report," Zephyr called out, his voice barely above a whisper.
Stepping forward, rke bowed before Zephyr.
Since bing a Mana Cultivator, rke had undergone a remarkable transformation.
Once plump and chubby, he had slimmed down significantly and now he is a Tier 2 Intermediate Knight.
His eyes burned with intensity, exuding a palpable aura of power and determination.
In fact, all present in the hall were Tier 2 Intermediate Knights, with some on the cusp of advancing to Tier 3 Master Knights.
"Gate Master, after weeks of relentless battles, our ranks have swelled," rke began, his gaze fixed on Zephyr. "We now boast two thousand members, with three hundred at Tier 1 Beginner Knight and a hundred at Tier 2 Intermediate Knight. The rest are just mortals but every two to three days we get five Tier 1 Beginner Knights"
Pausing for a moment, rke continued, "In the past weeks, we have seized control of three districts and the slums, bringing our total to four districts. We now dominate all the businesses once held by rival gangs we have destroyed."
Zephyr leaned back in his throne,as he listens to rke reports.
Zephyr''s eyes narrowed as he carefully reviewed rke''s reports. Despite their growing power, the number of Mana Cultivators in their organization was still lowerpared to others in the city. Over the past two weeks, he had been pushing the Abyss Gate members to cultivate and participate in battles to improve theirbat skills.
"Fortunately, the resources big bro sent us shouldst a few months," Zephyr muttered to himself.
He raised his hand and called out, "Finn, Sirius, step forward."
Finn, a handsome young man with long hair and a scar on his left eye, along with another man, stepped forward and bowed to Zephyr. The three of them stood together, with rke looking up to Zephyr respectfully.
"Here are your tasks for now," Zephyr said to the three of them.
He then turned to rke and instructed," I want you to establish aprehensive underground intelligencework throughout the city, you have one month. Understood ".
"Understood Gate Master ".rke epted the task with a serious expression.
"Good " Zephyr nodded and turned to Finn,"
You are currently to continue expanding our members, begin recruiting new members and double the amount of resources to our members. I want our members to increase to six thousand and by the end of the next month, I want see a thousand Tier 1 Beginner Knights and Five hundred Tier 2 Intermediate Knight. Understood".
Finn lips twitched as he quickly nced at Zephyr who was smiling at him.
"Understood Gate Master" Finn immediately responded.
"Good ".Zephyr nodded and finally turned to Sirius" Sirius as for you all our businesses are now in your hands make sure to run the business well. Bythe end of next month I want our current profit to triple. Understood".
Sirius nooded quickly," Understood Gate Master ".
"Good, step back," Zephyr said, waving his hand.
The three quickly returned to their positions.
"For those of you standing in this hall, I expect all of you to reach Tier 3 Master Knights by the end of next month. Otherwise, well, let''s just say you don''t want to find out what happens ". Zephyr chuckled sinisterly, his icy gaze sweeping over the members of Abyss Gate gathered below him.
The tension in the room was palpable as everyone nervously shifted under his gaze.
"We understand, Gate Master," they all replied in unison, their voices trembling slightly.
"Good," Zephyr said with a cold smile.

The scene was bustling with activity as various Adventurer Teams set up their recruitment posts, shouting to catch the attention of passing adventurers.
Some teams had long lines of interested recruits, while others struggled to attract anyone at all. Brixton looked around, taking in the lively atmosphere with a smile.
Trinity smile and nodded," Ok let''s go and find a location to set up our recruitment post".
Brixton nodded and followed Trinity as they began searching for a spot to set up their own recruitment post.
After a brief search, they found a suitable location and got to work.
Trinity waved her hand and a long table and chair with appeared on the table a stack of were on it.

"Yeah it''s them alright, I didn''t expect them to start forming an Adventurer Team ".
" Yeah what a pity if I haven''t joined another Team I would consider joining them ". Experience tales at m v|l e''-NovelBin
Some of the adventurers immediately recognized Trinity and Brixton.
As they chatted among themselves, some had disappointed expressions on their faces because they didn''t have the chance to join their team, while others looked intrigued as they gazed at the beautiful Trinity and the towering Brixton in the distance.
A few minutester after Brixton shouted, a female adventurer quickly appeared in front of Trinity.
Trinity smiled and greeted her, "Hello, fellow adventurer! Would you like to join our Morningstar Adventurer Team?"
The female adventurer nodded confidently, "Yes."
Trinity handed her a form to fill out. As the female adventurerpleted the forms, Trinity observed her with interest and surprise.
The reason she was surprised was that this female Adventurer is an Elf, wearing tight-fitting light green armor and carrying a long bow on her back.
Judging by the Mana fluctuations, she was a Tier 2 Intermediate Knight.
After finishing the forms, the female adventurer, named Dilya Faphine, handed them to Trinity.
Trinity nced through them and nodded, "Good, wee to the Morningstar Adventure Team, Dilya Faphine."
"Thanks "Dilya smiled and nodded at Trinity.
"My name is Trinity and I''m the Captain of the Morningstar Adventurer Team and this Brixton the Vice Captain ".
Dilya nodded at Brixton," Nice to meet you Vice Captain".
"You are wee, from now on we are on the same Team just call me Brixton ". Brixton smile and said casually.
Dilya and hesitation shed in her eyes as she looked at Trinity.
Trinity noticed hesitation in Dilya''s eyes and asked, " Is there something bothering Dilya".
Dilya looked at Trinity anf asked," May I ask if you''re are somehow connected to the Morningstar Restaurant? ".
Trinity smiled and nodded," Yeah our big brother is the manager of the Morningstar Restaurant and he is the one supporting us".
