I'll Surpass The MC

However many descendants Brangara wanted would have to be achieved through Yarsha Zahara. That was her proposal.

She claimed that her children would inherit her talent and would be levels superior to the children Brangara has with other women.

Through the other women, Brangara would indeed be able to revive the Empyrean Boar race. But that was the end of that. They would simply be Empyrean Boars.

If he tried it exclusively through Yarsha Zahara, then their descendants would be significantly more talented. Just her ability to control Prana was almost on par with a Nature. Therefore, her proposal was simple: Don't work on quantity but instead on the quality of your descendants.

If Brangara doesn't accept her proposal, she'll simply commit suicide. The situation was dangerous. If the Boar King was angered, he would decimate the Zahara Kingdom. He had razed down plenty of regions until now. Zahara Kingdom wouldn't be an exception.

But despite that, Yarsha Zahara dared to blackmail him.

The palace grounds were still as a formless pressure filled the region. The ministers that were arriving stopped in their tracks, unable to take a step forward due to the Boar King's presence. He was angry.

This was the first time since he became the Boar King did someone dared blackmail him. But once he began to think about it, he liked Yarsha's logic, 'She's only claiming to birth stronger descendants. Of course, since I'm already reviving my race, it's in my best interests to make them as strong as possible.'

'This will delay my plans but it doesn't matter in the end. I have around eight thousand years left to live. Being delayed by a couple of decades is nothing in the grand scheme of things.' He concluded.

If he were to have ten children with Yarsha, and every child was to produce ten children each, then by the fourth generation, they'd be a thousand strong. Brangara was originally confident in turning the fourth generation into his Clansmen.

But maybe Yarsha's addition to the equation will hasten the process. The result will be superior. Along that line of thought, he suddenly had an epiphany, asking her, "You were born with 99 Prana, right?"

"Yes," Yarsha nodded.

"How long did it take you to reach 100 Prana?" He asked next.

"Around a month I think." Yarsha thought and stared at her father to inquire about the accurate details.

"You took seventeen days," The Zahara King stated.

"That means, in a mere seventeen days, you reached the peak of the Spirit Stage and remained at that level for the past fifteen years." He said and stared at the Zahara King, "You haven't found a worthy material for her Human Avatar?"

"Yes," The Zahara King said and transformed his hand magenta, "This is Reactive Jade, the material the Zahara Kingdom Royalty uses to forge our Human Avatars. It's the most powerful mineral in this region."

Reactive Jade had the property to react to every single ability, either to assist them or counter them. Using this, the cultivator could entirely amplify a Nature or counter it, weakening it to the limit. The most advantageous of this ability was that it could stack.

Hence, when the Zahara Kingdom Royalty activates their Human Avatars in unison, they could practically render the Natures of a horde of Pranic Beasts ineffective.

Moreover, the material was tough and heavy enough to be a force of its own. Hence, the Human Avatars forged using it were strong enough to fight against Pranic Beasts physically.

In Mammoth Clan terms, Reactive Jade was equivalent to an Advance Silver Grade Pranic Beast. It wasn't even the peak of the Silver Grade.

In the eyes of the Boar King, it was too weak, especially to be used for someone as talented as Yarsha Zahara, "You did well in not using such a trashy mineral to forge her Human Avatar."

"I commend your insight," Brangara commented.

"Thank you for your praise." The Zahara King bowed in response.

The Boar King then lifted Yarsha Zahara and announced, "From today onwards, Yarsha Zahara is my, the Boar King's wife. She will remain my sole woman."

At his proclamation, Yarsha smiled and coiled her hands around his neck, "I thought your pride would feel wounded by what I spoke. What made you accept it?"

"Your confidence," Brangara grinned, "The Boar King's wife needs to be that confident and have the means to back it up. You have what it takes to be my partner."

"Empyrean Boars have a polygynous nature, but that's because of the influence brought by the Yoked Wyrms they have swallowed. That generation was pitifully eradicated." He said, "Hence, it's best to change things up in this generation. Empyrean Boars will have a monogamous relationship from now onwards."

"One partner for life!"

He proclaimed, "I'll etch this in the genetics of our progeny."

The previous generation of Empyrean Boars was a failure among Gold Grade Pranic Beasts. Therefore, Brangara intended to change things at a fundamental level for the next generation. It was best to go all out right from the start.

"We'll return here once our kids reach maturity and start desiring a partner." Brangara stared at the Zahara King and the ministers, "Work hard in training worthy successors."

"From today onwards, the Zahara Kingdom falls under the Boar King's protection." Saying so, the Boar King leaped away with Yarsha in tow, leaving the Zahara Kingdom.

Once he arrived at the Kingdom's entrance, he activated a Rockatrice's ability to erect a rock pillar.

Astral Chart—Rocky Intimidation!

This was the Rockatrice's Primary Nature, capable of unleashing mental pressure on targets designated as enemies. Anyone approaching the pillars of rocks created using this ability will feel their thoughts, abilities, and Prana suppressed.

The Rockatrice's Rocky Intimidation was already potently powerful. But when activated using the Boar King's Prana, it was on a whole other level.

The Boar King didn't erect a layer of wall around the Kingdom like the Rockatrice had done at the Rooster Tribe settlement. That wasn't necessary.

The rocky pillar he erected only unleashed a mild presence of himself. That was enough. Any force that dares target the Zahara Kingdom following this would make an enemy of him, the Boar King.

They should be prepared to be annihilated in return. The rocky pillar only existed to remind them of that, which was more than enough of a deterrent.

Unlike when he chased after Inala—during the time he set the trap using the baby Gannala puppet—for four days straight at his top speed, Brangara strolled casually this time, conversing with Yarsha to better know about her.

As they conversed, he actually began to like her confidence more and more, feeling more reassured by this decision. A week's leisure stroll later, they arrived at the Varahan Enclave.

Pointing at the forest patch filled with Petrified Geese, Brangara introduced himself, "My name's Brangara."

"And this," He stared at the creatures acting like sculptures to avoid his gaze, "Is my home."

"Welcome to the Varahan Enclave."
