The Witcher: Elemental Lords

While Dorlay's disappearance led to the gradual departure of the surrounding Rank 9s, the discussions surrounding him intensified.

On a mountaintop, several elders stood together, gazing in this direction. After observing, they all shook their heads.

They wore uniform robes adorned with the image of a majestic mountain, identifying them as members of the Alexander family.

"Soloff failed. It seems this person is truly a reincarnation of the gods. The Glory Empire's plans can be completely withdrawn."

"To have the power of a Rank 9... Unexpectedly, he acquired the authority of the Law so quickly through an extraplanar clone. Truly remarkable."

"This child cannot be dealt with through ambushes or encirclements. He also possesses the Nightmare Meditation Technique. If he's truly cornered, creating a Rank 9 army would be a genuine nightmare."

Thinking of this meditation technique, everyone silently cursed the damned Nightmare.

...

Dorlay himself didn't understand what Law-level power truly was. He only heard others say he possessed the power of annihilation, which he also felt. The current Rule combination of the Thunder Summoning Art was extremely powerful, but the true nature of annihilation power remained unknown.

Lacking relevant information, he could only guess. Now that he comprehended more Rules, he considered their power and the reactions between magic runes when incorporating them into the Thunder Summoning Art. He only added what could be added, avoiding anything that might disrupt the original power.

Of course, the current Thunder Summoning Art could no longer be called that. With the completion of energy formalization, it was time to change its name.

This trial run felt quite promising.

What name to choose? Dorlay pondered as he traveled. Soon, he decided to call it Thunder Summoning Blade—the Thunder Summoning Art transformed into a close-combat form, capable of becoming any weapon.

However, currently, he was only skilled with a scythe. After all, the Death God Meditation Technique's specialty was wielding a scythe.

Next, he needed to systematically study other weapons. He felt that the power of annihilation should primarily focus on spear techniques.

Piercing a surface with a point would unleash tremendous power.

Before long, he returned to Albis Mountain. The people around the city were unaware of Dorlay's recent great feat of defeating another Supreme Rank 9. Especially within Albis City, some were discussing and opposing a policy implemented by Dorlay.

Dorlay himself had lenient policies towards commoners. Besides Albis Academy recruiting a large number of talents, he also planned to improve the educational system, extending schools from elementary to advanced levels, ensuring everyone could afford education.

This caused headaches for the nobles. If everyone became martial, becoming great experts, how would these nobles live in the future? How would they display their sense of superiority?

This gave the leisurely nobles a sense of crisis, fearing their livelihoods would be taken away.

Some nobles were unwilling to move and only wanted to enjoy the legacy of their ancestors. Therefore, they focused their attention here, wondering how to persuade Dorlay to abandon this idea?

So, they were discussing who should raise the issue or whether to wait until the conference.

Meanwhile, Dorlay had already returned to Albis City.

His idea for Albis City was simple: to build it into his ideal city. Anyone unwilling could leave, not hindering his path.

Besides protecting Aisha and the two children, Dorlay was considering refining another Wizard Tower to retrieve the Turin Bone Tower.

The main body emerged from the room, where Monica, Brian, and Locke, who had recently learned to walk, were bored and shouted.

"Dad."

Dorlay responded and asked, "How was Monica and Brian's learning today?"

Monica, acting like a boss, braided her pigtails and said boredly, "It's boring. If Dad hadn't insisted I go to elementary school, I feel like I could attend a higher academy."

Dorlay nodded, "It's not for you to study, but to observe what your peers are doing. In two years, when you turn seven, I'll send you to a higher academy."

Monica's face immediately fell, "Still have to wait until seven? It feels so far away."

Dorlay ignored her, turned his head, and asked, "Brian?"

Brian looked silly, "I just went to play. There are many people, and it's fun to play together. They all seem afraid of me."

Dorlay's face darkened. This guy looked clumsy but was no pushover in a fight. As soon as he got to school, he beat up all the troublemaking kids, causing the teacher to complain to him.

After lecturing all three children, Dorlay came to them, put an arm around each, and let Locke climb on his stomach, saying, "Let me tell you a story today."

"Okay!"

The three children immediately cheered up.

...

Aisha's room was covered in ice and snow.

Two ice and snow artistic conceptions were naturally released from her body, transforming into ice and snow potential. Then, two thin Rule chains were born from the ice and snow potential.

These two Rule chains were still weak and incomplete, but their timing was perfect.

Aisha's aura suddenly rose, her mental power intertwined with the Rules, instantly elevating and expanding by almost tenfold.

Her mental power instantly increased, and Aisha's thoughts became clear. Taking advantage of this momentum, she frantically added her own insights into the Rule chains. The Rule chains became clearer and more distinct, quickly exceeding the standard second layer, third layer, and reaching a massive fourth layer before slowly stopping.

The two Rule chains advanced side by side, demonstrating Aisha's strong foundation.

Generally speaking, ordinary Rank 7s who had just advanced could only comprehend one Rule to the second or third layer.

Aisha stabilized the Rule chains and began to stabilize her understanding and mental power, feeling a little secretly pleased.

She was only thirty-five years old after the new year. Entering Rank 7 at thirty-five was not shameful.

Aisha was not complacent. In front of Dorlay, she couldn't be complacent even if she wanted to.

Dorlay, who was entertaining the children in the living room, sensed this and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Entering Rank 7 meant comprehending various Rules, no longer accumulating power. At Rank 7, Rules were power, and the application of Rules was key to significantly increasing combat power. Therefore, in the true upper echelons of the wizarding world, Rules were fundamental.

However, the role of meditation techniques should not be underestimated, because while Rules were fundamental, meditation techniques were the foundation for the existence of Rules.

Two more days passed, and Aileiya gave birth. Dorlay had two more children, a boy and a girl, named Monisha and Morlin.

The family was overjoyed to have two more members.

After the news spread, the entire city became joyous.

However, Dorlay did not relax because the southern war suddenly started for some reason. The two major religious empires formally declared war on the Glory Empire, making his situation uneasy.

Dorlay had many things to deal with. On the one hand, he had to deal with the Wizard God family's affairs, and on the other hand, he had to care about the southwestern war. He had no peace.
