Three New Pillars of Support & Power...

"… You'll have to give me a moment…" Esmond said as he sat across from Amelia, May, and Layla, who'd all gone through a massive transform that made it hard for Esmond to keep his eyes away.

The hips on Layla with her glowing skin and facial features made her an exotic beauty of the Mediterranean, easily preaching her status as an imperial just from her natural actions.

Like the other two, Layla's way of walking, talking and even their thoughts were processed much different than before.

Just moving to grab the teacup appeared graceful and elegant to anyone besides Esmond who saw them as sensual an alluring, but it was clear if she wanted, her might could easily deal with any trouble.

Amelia was the same, sitting peacefully across from Esmond with teacup in her hand, yet her acute gaze made her aura appear like a dragon relaxing yet on guard.

May however had the aura of an imperial empress and authority that could only be matched by those beside her.

She had more of a threatening aura than the rest but that was for those who served her since they needed to understand the difference between their mighty stations.

Only those who were near and dear could feel the love and compassion emanating from her.

Esmond figured the effects of their hidden bloodlines were affected by the Universal Essence Energy which had improved their appearances and beauty but raw strength and power.

Igdra helped them understand their power and strength which could have overtaken their bodies and minds because of the dense information provided by their lineages.

Amelia learnt the language of the dragons and how to control their magic, yet it also pained her that she didn't have a dragon of her own to raise.

A core part of her lineage was related to dragons and required their allegiance in some way or another to help keep the bloodline alive.

In Amelia's case, Arthur Pendragon couldn't protect the last dragons of the world and started the decline of their bloodline.

There seemed to be a massive gap of history that kept her mind blind of what occurred after Arthur's death, until her parents came into her mind and how they lived a certain part of their lives.

Though the family history wasn't what really surprised Amelia, but rather the techniques and methods of the family that were all drilled into her mind, muscles and even done to her very cells.

Her mixture of platinum white and pure golden threads of hair as strong as dragon scales were offset by the deep blue eyes of the sea that contained the wrath of thunder and ice creating it into a blizzard as untameable as a dragon.

.

May understood the art of combat, war, politics, and people through her imperial bloodline that out her above the others.

She knowledge on artwork such as calligraphy, tapestries, sculpturing, and architecture related to the Imperial Qin Empire.

May already tested her new strengths and abilities, leaving herself and the others stunned by the quality of her work.

Esmond felt like her body was moulded from jade, making her too delicate to touch or be near but he knew otherwise.

The dark hair wasn't something simple, with its silkiness and smoothness unmatchable.

Looking into her dark eyes, Esmond could see the power of the heavens and earth supporting her existence as defining figure to lead those disillusioned by the propagated falsehood.

Layla had a similar green glint in her eyes to May's dark eyes that screamed dominance and power but more in the sense of warfare and battles of conquest.

And right now, Layla saw Esmond as someone she wanted to conqueror right now.

Her glowing tanned skin and mixture of her wavy honeycomb light brown hair sent Esmond's mind and heart racing.

Igdra noticed the tension between Esmond and Layla, so she coughed to garner their attention as she brought some snaps into the new lounge room of the cabin which had expanded and been rebuilt into a larger version of its previous self with better materials.

It also had some new improvements sorted out by Igdra to create a nice warm atmosphere without overly relying on technology.

Esmond actually liked the new touches, but it also felt much grander than his father's original idea.

It still took him a while to figure out the nonsense Igdra had just said to him earlier regarding her decision to bring the girls into the Space.

While her points concerning Esmond leaving them behind once they fell too far behind compared to his strength seemed a little spot on, he never considered if they actually wanted to support him out of their own free will.

Amelia complained she wasn't being trusted with more authority and understood her knowledge was more than capable to take on more work.

Layla felt angry she was treated more like a worker than someone loved and close to Esmond at times.

Being asked to drive them around always pained her even if it wasn't a big deal in other eyes.

May however just wished Esmond was more honest with her and asked her whatever made him feel uneasy about her.

She knew for some time now that Esmond would hold himself back from her which affected the relationship he also had with the others.

This related to their main frustration that he wasn't physically with any of them, whereas Igdra had already told them about her time with Esmond.

All of this put Esmond in a bad situation with the girls where he either accepted them completely right now or left them go and live their own lives away from his.

The girls swore up and down that they wouldn't say anything about the Spatial Ark Star World if Esmond chose the latter option, so they also swore to have their memories slightly altered through Magic performable by the Arch Primordial Elves.

The girls were locked at Prime Species Rank which several stages below Primordial Species.

Esmond knew the scaling system of the Species Rank Grade didn't make complete sense but he knew that the girls were held back from their complete evolutions so their minds could still be tricked by the memory spell.

Once they became Primordial beings, their existence becomes similar to an anti-magic tool that cannot be stopped.

.

"*Sigh* Look, I never have said I would leave any of you behind, but… I understand how you feel especially with Igdra appearing.

I'm more than happy to let you girls do exactly as you please now that I know you more than capable of protecting yourselves.

Just make sure to keep this place from family and anyone else until the future.

If you want to bring in your direct family, I understand but please… no one else.

The more people that know the more problems we have to deal with and hide." Esmond got up and sat in between the girls as one fed him some slice fruit while another leaned on him slightly.

He tried to poke at their sympathy to get a reaction that could help him appear more civil and inclusive.

Weirdly it worked, but not because of his charms but due to Igdra interfering and helping Esmond by increasing his ability to resonance with others.

She taught him how to start another Soul-Bond.

Esmond understood what just started happening between him and the girls but before he could stop it and move upstairs to his bedroom, Igdra took care of it and instantly shifted them all to Esmond's sprawling new bedroom.

Measured at roughly 3,600 square metres, Esmond's new bedroom contained room for each of the girls to keep enough space for clothes and other items around the place.

The original idea was to create separate rooms rather than one room for all of them, but Igdra convinced them that it wouldn't be healthy for their own relationship as Esmond's partners.

This left the three girls blushing and quite honestly curious about what would happen with Esmond.

Igdra warned them that Esmond would help pushed them through with their evolutions, however then they figured out how exactly it was going to happen, the girls were left numb from the sensation.

Just as Esmond started to enjoy this small surprise on his late return home on the 5th of April, overnight in South Australia near Commonwealth Hill and Mount Sarah, the mining production increased at the sites under the control of the Aeternus Curatio Group.

Primal Waste Management started increasing their operations already with more cargo ships arriving at the docks to unload waste.

The South Australian government and the Federal government of Australia found it alarming that the company was bringing so much waste to the nation but after they saw the recycled materials, they helped organise some assistance to help provide the waste of the nation to the company.

James Trudell already found himself meeting Kevin Rudd, the Prime Minister of Australia for helping deal with a problem that plagues mankind.

But those comments were reserved for the media while the real questions asked how the business operated and the potential of the business regarding Australia as a whole.

Because Aeternus Curatio Group caused a big storm across Australia and the globe, the government wanted to do its best to retain talent before it sold itself overseas or collapsed completely.

Kevin Rudd promised to help open channels with China regarding waste management since he had friends over there, but James could only laugh in his heart as he knew the biggest dragon within the entire nation, yet it chose to not bother itself with such small tasks.

A small project was created to try and use the recycled materials to create military equipment, but this was largely outside of the purview of the Primal Waste Management company.

Rather Esmond's military firearms and research company named Joker's Flax, already had the government expecting big things.

The government was prepared to offer the Aeternus Curatio Group and Primal Management Group several large grants and deals to keep them within Australia, including land deals far beyond the norm.

Analysts within the government saw promise within the two Corporate Groups which had become internationally known within a short few weeks because of their striking work.

Eddie took this opportunity to widen the power and influence of the two groups in the public's eye.

They'd already turned into a big force who hired many different people with its quick expansion.

Esmond wasn't aware but with the arrival of the Arch Primordial Elves, many people started to request for charms created to help hide their appearances from the eyes of humans.

People wanted to travel around Earth and that meant beyond the Septum Aecors of Terra Kingdom borders.

Others wanted a chance to help the Lord and his businesses, which included a large portion of the Arch Primordial Elves who all felt some sort of responsibility to help their father's business for helping them come to life.

Before Esmond became aware of it, the Aeternus Curatio Group quickly became a mixture of people from the Spatial Ark Star World and those from Earth, creating a unique sort of harmony within the company.

Primal Management Group were to also take in several people from the Spatial Ark Star World, but they would only be those who wouldn't directly be interfering with James.

By the time the 6th day of April arrived, Esmond's two Corporate Groups entered the purview of the prominent across the country and beyond.

Barrack Obama's staff also got in touch with Esmond's offices which finally had a team of assistants who all were tasked with helping the calls and emails Esmond received.

Everything went through the internal A.I Profile to check everything for errors or issues but even so, the requests came from across the globe.

Everyone asking the same thing… cooperation.

Truthfully only a few people should be lucky enough to gain some sort of connection with Esmond's companies, but nobody expected his plans to reply to every company and business if they were serious.

Esmond understood he could expand the reach of his companies if he bought small businesses within select nations but to do so he still required locals from the specific countries who best understood the soil of their homeland.
