With the matter of the Blood River Bandits having been finalized and over 150,000 Gold Coins being acquired, the Scarlet Mist Mercenaries have gained much renown.

Along with that, it was news that became a rumor, talking about all the Scarlet Mist Mercenaries knowing how to use Mana, for those who were in Violet Leaf City, they saw that it was true, but in more distant cities and villages, they were just rumors that people thought was absurd.

But it is indisputable that they are strong, only that no one from far away will believe that 30 women dealt with more than 150 bandits!

Naturally, Adriana didn't care about these bullshit rumors, her attention turned to how to spend so much money!

She needs to develop a powerful mercenary group and a very important need has been more than nurtured, wealth!

If they were an average group, with so much wealth, they would already be preparing to retire, but Adriana is not average and she has ambitions.

And not just her, but her subordinates as well, who saw the opportunity to dream bigger than they should have, all because of Adriana.

Adriana has guaranteed them an environment where they can become as respectful as Mistresses of Cities or even Lords in the future, they just need to demonstrate their effort.

With the Contribution Points and the arsenal of techniques that Adriana has, everyone will be able to reach amazing levels!

And that first mission was a good sample, before they hadn't noticed the difference, even if they thought they got stronger, compared to Adriana and their wives connected to the System, being able to see their progress firsthand, they could only feel it.

So even if they felt stronger, they didn't think it was for that, but… when they faced the bandits, in the past they would have had difficulties, but now, they seemed so weak and insignificant, it was even rude!

That's why everyone is even more committed to training, seeing that their efforts are rewarding them enormously!

…

Having the money, Adriana now wanted land, she doesn't want to become a noblewoman or anything like that, a lot of headaches, she needs an adequate space to be able to train her subordinates, without many looks.

To this end, Adriana wants a large residence, with the money she has, it is likely that 80% will go away in an attempt to buy a mansion, but having a fixed location will be worth it.

But then Hyelen came to give new information, about a pioneer village in the new regions, which was abandoned 3 years ago, the structures were assembled, but now it must be under the command of some primitive race like Goblins or Kobolds.

The good thing is that technically, it's nobody's territory there and if you're only going to stay for a few weeks or months for training and preparation, it shouldn't pose too many problems.

Adriana found it interesting, asking the location, it will be a place where there will be Demonic Beasts to be hunted, primitive tribes for troop training.

Not to mention it will save you a lot.

"Alright, Hyelen, recruit 20 Archers, age cannot be more than 35, salary of 10 Gold initially." - Adriana said calmly.

"Understood!" - Hyelen nodded, that was to be expected.

Adriana has decided to increase her numbers to 90 frontline troops and 10 support troops!

So, 30 will be Archers, Adriana was thinking about which technique to teach them, there are some, all very similar, what changes is how the Mana is used.

As for recruiting warriors, spearmen, swordsmen, etc., well… in this region it will be difficult to find women with good talent in these areas, since most of them are hunters.

Not to mention that the Orc and Dwarf blood in this region is very low, another reason why there are not many women with large physiques.

...

Leaving the region after almost 1 week of rest and parties, the group with an additional 20 archers and 5 members for the support team, another doctor to help Emely.

Emely who, by the way, had a noticeable improvement in her shyness, it improved a lot after the 2 battles with the bandits, she took care of her injuries and demonstrated that she has the talent and focus for this.

Not to mention that she became addicted to the books that Adriana had given her, all about modern medicine, her new medicine companion also became addicted to the books, both studying them and exchanging their ideas.

Otherwise she was helpers for the kitchen and other general tasks.

Adriana also spent quite a bit this week crafting some swords and bows, she didn't give it her all as she was mass manufacturing, so she, Ophelia and another new blacksmith in the group were working on new items for the group.

As for armor, they received it 2 days ago, as Adriana already ordered it well before they went to hunt the bandits, so they all had new weapons and armor, looking more Mercenaries than bandits like before!

…

The group's objective was to go closer to the unexplored regions, the Lord of the region pays a lot to expand his lands and presents noble titles to many Mercenaries who swear allegiance to him.

Adriana had no thoughts of helping her in her expansion, at least not right now, she just wants to take over that abandoned village and use it as a training center for a while.

In the meantime, 45 more women were recruited, where Adriana prioritized their physical size, skills and talents!

Adriana wanted some Magas, but they are difficult to find, just going to the Magic Towers that are more frequent in Capitals and Big Cities, in the Province where they are there is no Magic Tower.

And so, after almost 1 month of travel and various preparations, the more than 100 women arrived at an abandoned and destroyed village, where there was nothing here, so they began to take it as a camp.

First there was the collection of wood, then the setting up of fences and traps around it, the houses being cleaned and put in order, tents were put up initially.

A group led by Adriana, went out into the forest to hunt and understand some dangers, in the end they found 3 Demonic Beasts that will become a great barbecue for the whole group.

It was an enjoyable evening filled with full bellies.

Adriana had a good fun night out with Ajacky, who is more confident in weeks since that day.

...

The training officially started 4 days later, after they cleared the entire village to live here, a flag was even raised with the emblem of the Scarlet Mist.

In the training field, almost 1 hundred women were standing neatly, swinging their swords, only wearing skirts, that is, for Adriana, it is a wonderful sight to see dozens of women with breasts of different sizes, colors and shapes, all sweaty, swaying.

But her goal wasn't just to enjoy or make her happy, it turns out that it's annoying to have to clean your sweaty clothes every day, so it's better to train without clothes.

In the end it's just breasts, everyone here has breasts.

And just after 2 hours of practicing [Beast Swordsmanship], it was time to recover your Mana and Stamina, as such, meditation!

Adriana walked among them, helping those in need, sometimes in an environment with such strong smells of sweat and hormones so intense, it was common to see some Hermaphrodites with their tents set up and having indecent thoughts during meditation.

That way, Adriana with a stick, would hit them to hurt a lot!

After that there was archery training, 1 hour of training, but for those who would specialize, it would be 2 hours.

Then there were 2 hours of rest, for the archers, only 1 hour of rest and they couldn't complain, since they had only 1 hour of training with swords.

After resting, there was muscle training with various weights and machines that Adriana had designed for muscle training.

To finish the training, all of them formed pairs, where they began to fight with bare hands, the objective was to win 5 points by knocking down or hitting their opponent in a point considered vital.

There are those who will observe and mark the points.

They need to know how to use their bodies in the best possible ways, both in sword fighting, unarmed and using bows in time of need.

Initially they complained, but after Adriana beat them all without even breaking a sweat, they didn't complain anymore.

And every 2 weeks, there would be training in groups, where the 90 would be separated into 3 groups of 30 each, participating in competitions to capture the flag or the enemy leader.

The group with the most victories during the day receives 1 day of rest and leisure, something that everyone prioritizes a lot, so group battles are very fierce.

Mainly the competition from Mell, Maria and Hyelen, they are the ones who usually top the 3 groups.

After 2 months of training, where there were 4 competitions, Hyelen is in the lead with 2 wins and the others with only 1.

Group members are drawn at random, so that all fit to follow the orders of each of the leaders.

Adriana has also led raids on monster villages in this time, having encountered tribes of Goblins, Kobolds, Gnolls, including some Forest Trolls.

They were all gaining enough combat experience and their strength was skyrocketing by leaps and bounds.

Soon the weakest ones were around Level 25, where 8 of them have already applied for promotion to Silver Categorize, even knowing that the responsibilities will be much greater, as well as the more severe punishments, but in return they will be much stronger!

But so far none of them have passed the test, now what was the test? Withstand Adriana's attacks for 3 minutes!

Adriana will attack them, naturally suppressing their strength, her objective being to knock them out.

In the end all were knocked out without exception.

And Adriana said that she will only use [Beast Swordsmanship] against them.

...

In addition to training her subordinates, Adriana was also training, about to master [Beast Swordsmanship] and turn it into a skill.

In addition, she was already at Level 107, she has confidence to face Tier 3 beings, who have not passed Level 200.

In that time, she wasn't the only one progressing so fast, Luria, Ikiria and Lily were also doing their best, the 3 of them already passing Level 50.

Lily has already unlocked several spells and rituals, as well as being able to transform into a Human or other species if desired.

Ikiria in her Subclass, seeing how childish it was to choose Ninja, selected Penumbra Assassin, acquiring Magic Abilities focused on shadows and darkness, which will make her an even deadlier assassin!

For Ikiria, it will be very new things, since she no longer has her Celestial Constitution and the Chi that was her main means of strengthening, she will not follow him in this life.

So that's how she awakened the [Aura of Penumbra], which enhances her stealth, and even Adriana will have trouble sensing her presence.

Luria chose the [Winter Knight] Subclass, providing him with various Ice Element techniques for combat and defense.

Lily chose the [Flesh Witch] Subclass, linked to the Blood and Flesh Element of the Paranormal, with that she is like a Necromancer, who will create blood zombies and stuff like that.

Adriana warned her to be very careful due to the cost of Sanity, but Lily wasn't worried, she's a Demon, the Paranormal doesn't affect her that much, to the point that she herself doesn't have the Sanity Attribute!

And due to lack of need, they would no longer be involved with the Paranormal, except for Lily who is closely linked to him.

It is natural that in the future they will be exposed to the Paranormal, there is no way to avoid it, but it will not be like in the past, where it is linked to leveling, it will be just another Skill.

Not to mention that the System learned a lot more about the Paranormal, seeing how useless it was to link the Paranormal to leveling, since it was through a percentage and not levels.

Low Level Agents had 5~15% Paranormal Exposure, Medium Level 20~30%, High Level 35~45%, and Higher Level Agents reached 50% Paranormal Exposure and underwent a transcendence ritual .

National Level Agents had 55~60%, Transcendent Level Agents had 65~75% Paranormal Exposure.

From 80% and above, it becomes very dangerous and the Paranormal gets stronger with individuals at this level, but it is very difficult to reach.

Already at 100% Paranormal Exposure, the person in question is almost 100% sure to become a Demon, but it could be just like Adriana in her prime, which due to her special body and things related to Salomon, she was fixed at 99 %, becoming a Demon Human, able to match Demons, while maintaining her sanity.

Anyway, Adriana and her companions don't have much thoughts of getting involved with the Paranormal.

And of course, Lily doesn't follow this rule, since she is a Demon, so for her, following the path of the Paranormal Elements, is the same as training Aura and Magic, so she is training Magic and Paranormal!

…

With them having passed Level 50, Adriana saw it was time to bring them to Aphrodite.

...

"Your wives?!" - Maria and others were astonished with what Adriana had just said.

Ajacky was the most surprised, not understanding for sure, since Adriana said little about them.

"I just got a message from them, they're in the area and I'm going to pick them up, I'll be back in 1 week!" - Adriana said calmly.

"But weren't you separated from them by the trap? How did they find you?" - Asked Ajacky clenching her teeth and being very nervous.

Smiling, Adriana caressed his cheek and said. - "Stop thinking about it my bunny, I love you just as I love them, as for how they found me, one of them is a sorceress, tracking me down using the amount of stuff I had must have been easy, it must have just been time consuming to cross the mainland!"

"I see, then I'll go along!" - Ajacky said just accepting, she already expected it, she just didn't expect it to be so soon!

"Unfortunately it won't be possible, I have to bear the consequences!" - Adriana said sighing.

"I won't have any problems if it's Ikiria and Lily, but Luria… likely she'll try to castrate me, simply put, I need to take care of it myself, but don't worry, I'll introduce you to them, hope they get along." - Adriana said smiling and kissing Ajacky's forehead.

Ajacky pouted and just nodded.

And the next morning Adriana went to "look" for their wives!

––––––

Ajacky had finished her day of training and was sitting alone by a campfire, feeling lonely.

It's been a long time since she's been this far away from Adriana, not to mention there will soon be 3 women she'll have to share with.

Even though she knows that she was the youngest to arrive and even though Adriana had 3 wives, she continued to follow him and didn't hesitate in her decision.

But now, her fists were clenching as they touched her forehead.

"Want a drink?" - A sweet voice came, Ajacky looked and accepted the mug that Mell was passing her.

Mell sat beside her, drinking her beer, watching Ajacky looking lonely.

"What's the problem? Greetings from Adriana?" - Mell asked smiling slightly.

"Not only that..." - Said Ajacky sighing and drinking beer.

"Frustrated to soon have 3 love rivals?" - Asked Mell laughing and Ajacky was quiet.

Mell stopped laughing, drinking her beer and looking at the sky, it's really beautiful and starry today.

"It's frustrating that I fell in love with a woman who won't just have me in her heart, I knew that, but… I feel so… so…" - Ajacky couldn't find a word.

"Wronged?" - Asked Mell and Ajacky sighed, but nodded.

"You know… I hate Adriana!" - Said Mell, which surprised Ajacky.

"The first time we saw each other, that beautiful young woman with a huge dick came all over me, giving me one of the most magical nights of my life, then she fucked my mother, it was fun… but after that, she didn't she saw me as someone so close, it was just a casual thing and I admit that I started to have feelings for her…" - Mell laughed dryly, taking her mug.

"That's why I envy you, I'm not the only one, Maria also envies you a lot, since she also tried to seduce Adriana, but she wasn't so interested, for some reason those eyes were more focused on you!" - Mell said frustrated.

"But I do know that she has bonded with you, your mother, Maria and others in the last few months, several times as far as I know." - Said Ajacky surprised.

"Yes, but these are things of the moment, Adriana doesn't have the slightest interest in becoming something more serious, I myself joined this group thinking that I could have found my soulmate, but I was very foolish… I don't regret joining In the Scarlet Mist Mercenaries, this group reignited my dreams, allowing me to become much more powerful and skilled than I could have dreamed of, but it doesn't change that my initial target was Adriana!" - Mell said laughing and looking at Ajacky with a complicated look.

"Don't let this opportunity slip away child, Adriana is an objective and insensitive woman, she really likes you, since she publicly says she loves you, caresses you in front of others without caring, already with whom she had something more casual… once I told her I loved her, she didn't answer me and that hurts, it hurts a lot, but I understand that she is a great woman, destined to leave her name forever in history, I... I'm just a bartender who was lucky enough to enjoy a opportunity!" - Mell laughed, looking drunk as tears ran down her cheek.

Ajacky was silent, feeling sorry for Mell, but at the same time, she felt much better, as it made her notice better, what kind of woman Adriana really is.

"I see I cheered you up, that's good…" - Mell said smiling, which left Ajacky a little panicked, but soon Mell came forward and kissed her forehead.

"Don't worry about my little heart, I'm too old to understand how love works… how about I teach you some tricks? In return when you and Adriana are together, how about asking me a few times? You can't help but forget that huge, delicious thing inside you!" - Mell said smiling gently.

Ajacky blushed and nodded, thinking that was all he could do.
