After setting up the Demon Formation in Fensville, Gilmore turned to the women and said, “Although Fensville is protected by the Demon Formation, there’s no need to worry.
“But this is just Fensville, the Tower Empire has many other cities.
“It looks like we’re in for a busy night, visiting and setting up formations in all the major cities of the Golden Tower Empire.
“Only by fortifying every city with formations can we safeguard the citizens from a catastrophe.”
Lilian, Claire, and the others
e somewhat surprised to hear this.
They knew that the Golden Tower Empire was vast, with its territory comparable to Eldoria and comprised of over a hundred cities, both large and small.
Thus, setting up formations in all these cities was indeed a monumental task.
However, Gilmore was determined to protect the innocent citizens of the Golden Tower Empire, and naturally, Lilian, Claire, and the others were unwavering in their support for him.
They all nodded in agreement with Gilmore’s plan.
Gilmore then unleashed his anima.
In an instant, as he channeled anima, it enveloped Lilian and the others in a protective aura.
With a hand gesture and a surge of power, he activated the manuals.
In a whoosh, the light aura of anima enveloped everyone, and they vanished from the sky high above Fensville.
Moments later, Lilian, Claire, and the others felt the gusting wind cease. They were no longer in the skies above Fensville but had arrived in an unfamiliar airspace.
Below them lay another city, much smaller than Fensville and certainly not as grand or majestic, a city home to tens of thousands of people.
Lilian and the women were astounded. In just a blink of an eye, Gilmore had transported them from the skies above Fensville to another city entirely.
Moreover, as far as they knew, there were no other cities within 30 miles of Fensville.
This meant the city they had arrived at was just beyond 30 miles from Fensville.
Yet, Gilmore had brought them there in the blink of an eye.
Such a feat was truly astonishing, leaving Lilian, Claire, and the others speechless with amazement.
How on earth did Gilmore manage that?
Seeing the astonished looks on Lilian and the others‘ faces, Gilmore remained calm and explained, “This city’s name is Unicorn, a mid–sized city in the Golden Tower Empire.
“I’m going to set up a formation here now.”
After saying this, Gilmore sat cross–legged in mid–air, began forming hand seals, and muttered incantations.
Minutes later, with dozens of streaks of light shooting down like meteors, illuminating key points throughout Unicorn, the
Demon Formation was successfully established in the city.
After setting up the Demon Formation in Unicorn, Gilmore, along with Lilian, Claire, and the others, teleported once again to another city in the Golden Tower Empire to set up another formation.
Throughout the night, Gilmore, accompanied by Lilian, Claire, and the women, visited over a hundred cities in the Golden Tower Empire, setting up formations in each one.
Despite the vast number of cities they visited, the entire journey around the Golden Tower Empire only took them about two to three hours.
The reason they were able to set up formations in all the cities of the Golden Tower Empire in just a few hours was, of course, thanks to the invaluable skill of teleportation.
It allowed him to make a round trip across the Golden Tower Empire in less than an hour with ease.
After setting up formations in all the cities of the Golden Tower Empire, Gilmore returned with the women to the Princess’s residence and sweetly drifted into dreamland.
The next day, Princess Amy came to the residence.
In the living room, with a sweet and beautiful smile, Princess Amy relayed her father’s invitation to Gilmore, “Mr. Reed, my father has sent me to invite you and the ladies to a noon banquet at the palace. I wonder if you could make time to attend?
Gilmore responded, “Your Highness, if Mr. Franko has extended an invitation, of course, I shall attend.
“Kalso have matters to discuss with Mr. Franko,” Gilmore added.
Although Princess Amy didn’t know what Gilmore wanted to discuss with her father, she was overjoyed to hear he would- attend the palace’s noon banquet.
“Then, Mr. Reed, shall we head to the palace now?” Princess Amy asked enthusiastically.
However, Gilmore replied, “Princess, let’s wait a bit.
“Some of my fiancées are still not up, and others are freshening up.
“Besides, there’s still some time before the noon banquet.”
Hearing this, Princess Amy smiled apologetically, “You’re right, Mr. Reed. I forgot how long it takes us women to get ready before stepping out.”
Gilmore chuckled, “Yes, it’s one of those unavoidable things.”
Seeing that they needed to wait, Princess Amy curiously asked Gilmore, “Mr. Reed, if you don’t mind me asking, how do you have so many fiancées?”
She had been curious ever since Gilmore mentioned that Lilian and the others were his fiancées.
However, at that time, they were in a rush to the Ice Mountains, and she hadn’t asked further.
Now, with some leisure time, she posed her question.
Gilmore explained to Amy, “Because I am in love with each of them, and we’ve all decided to spend our lives together.
“That’s why they are all my fiancées.”
His answer left Princess Amy with no room for objection.
Indeed, why question it?
When two people are in love, they simply choose to be together

However, the fact that Gilmore, who was not of royal or noble birth, had so many women by his side made Princess Amy think that he seemed to have more romantic fortune than even the nobles of the Golden Tower Empire.
The thought of Gilmore’s legendary prowess and his appeal to so many remarkable women somehow made sense to Princess Amy.
He gazed at Amy, asking, “Do you see any issue with that?” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Amy quickly shook her head, “Not at all, I’m just quite envious of Mr. Reed.”
Gilmore responded with a smile, “Don’t be. When you ascend to the throne of the Golden Tower Empire, you too can have your pick a horde of suitors across vast royal courts.”
However, Amy looked astonished at this suggestion and then shuddered, emphatically refusing, “No, Mr. Reed, I don’t desire a horde of men in my court. I’m only interested in one man.
“I’m not that kind of woman.”
Gilmore was taken aback, thinking, “Well, this Amy is quite pure–hearted!”
He quickly said, “Then let’s forget what I just said. Come on, let’s have some coffee.”
He then poured coffee for Amy.
By this time, Lilian, Claire, and the others had finished their preparations and joined them in the hall.
Gilmore explained the princess’s invitation to the palace’s noon banquet, and everyone agreed to attend.
The group
then left the Princess’s residence and headed to the palace.
The royal banquet was held in a magnificent, glittering hall.
Apart from the Emperor Huston and Princess Amy, other notable attendees included Yacouba, along with Gilmore and the other women.
During the banquet, Huston personally poured wine for Gilmore,
After filling his cup, Huston raised his glass towards Gilmore, saying, “Mr. Reed, you are my savior. I toast to you.”
Gilmore raised his glass in return, replying, “Mr. Franko is too kind. I toast to you as well.”
Together, they said, “Cheers!”
Their glasses clinked in unison, and they drained their drinks in one go.
Following this, a chorus of cheerful laughter filled the room.
Huston, looking intently at Gilmore, inquired, “Mr. Reed, I heard from Amy that you have something important to discuss with me?”
Gilmore nodded, “Indeed, there is a matter I need to discuss.
“I’ye divined that a calamity is looming over the Golden Tower Empire. I urge Mr. Franko to prepare in advance to avoid catastrophic losses.”

“What? Another disaster on the horizon? What kind of calamity, Mr. Reed?” Huston’s face showed immediate concern as he pressed for more details.
Gilmore replied, “I cannot specify the nature of this disaster yet, but it’s certainly a major one.
“I implore Mr. Franko to take this seriously, or we might face something even more dreadful than the recent snow disaster.”
Huston, Amy, and Yacouba’s faces turned grave instantly.
They all knew too well the horrors of the snow disaster.
The thought of something even more terrifying was unthinkable.
Amy quickly turned to Gilmore, asking, “Mr. Reed, what should we do?”
Gilmore advised, “Starting immediately, issue a strict order for all cities and citizens to stay put, and declare martial law throughout the nation.”
Huston, with a solemn demeanor, agreed, “Very well, I will issue the order for nationwide martial law right away.”
Gilmore added, “Although this impending disaster is fearsome, it’s not insurmountable. I will stand with you in this crisis.”
The Emperor looked at him gratefully, “Mr. Reed, you truly are a savior of the Golden Tower Empire.”
He was well aware of Gilmore’s supernatural skill. With Gilmore by their side, Huston felt like he had a formidable pillar of support, and that there was still hope for the empire.
His gratitude towards Gilmore was immense.
Yet, Gilmore remained calm and humble, saying to Huston, “Mr. Franko, there’s no need for formalities. Saving the people from disaster is a duty I willingly embrace.”
What began as a casual luncheon at the palace quickly escalated into a crisis meeting. Huston, too preoccupied to eat, summoned paper and ink to issue an immediate decree of martial law throughout the Golden Tower Empire.
He instructed Anson to dispatch the decree to every corner of the empire without delay.
Within a day, Huston’s order for nationwide martial law spread rapidly, blanketing every city in the empire.
A sense of foreboding hung over the land like dark, oppressive clouds.
Simultaneously, at the heart of the Ice Mountains, where Gilmore had previously sealed the Storm’s Eye with a thousand icebergs, a disturbing change was unfolding.
Amidst the crackling and snapping sounds, the icebergs began to shatter and fall from the void, crashing onto the mountainous terrain.
It was as if some terrifying, unknown force was about to burst forth from the earth.
Then, with a deafening roar that echoed through the heavens, the icebergs shattered
The sealed Storm’s Eye reappeared at the end of the mountain range, unleashing a terrifying cold storm. The gale that burst -forth seemed intent on turning the entire world into a frozen wasteland.
A horrific catastrophe was about to begin!
