Chapter 449: Yasenia's Intents and Dantian. [Constellation Steps]. Showing off.

Yasenia was sitting cross-legged and feeling peaceful as she did her morning cultivation. Her cultivation room was on a corner of the house, allowing the natural light to bath it without obstructions.

While cultivating and absorbing energy, Yasenia felt her little daughter slithering around her body. Kaleina would also sniff curiously when the Yin energy from her dears she was absorbing released a bit of their scent.

It wouldn't be noticeable if she weren't this close, but Kaleina was a dragon, and her sense of smell was on a whole other level.

Yasenia didn't mind until she felt Kaleina rubbing on her and licking her. Yasenia opened her eyes and stopped absorbing energy.

She looked at Kaleina, who was biting her right breast and rubbing her serpentine body there while leaving traces of her scent, and she laughed. "What are you doing, love?"

Kaleina looked upward and showed an annoyed face. Then she squeaked and buried her nose in Yasenia's softness, sniffing deeply.

Perceiving a scent that wasn't coming from her mommy, her golden eyes, inherited from her mama dragon, shone with undisguised annoyance and bit that spot.

Yasenia even felt Kaleina's little tongue licking and trying to erase the scent.

"Are you jealous, love?" The dragoness guessed that this behavior was because of some jealousy and felt her heart melting.

She picked her up and placed the rounded and cute dragon face before her eyes. Kaleina didn't understand Yasenia's question, but hearing her mother call her, she squeaked and smiled.

How could Yasenia resist this cuteness?

"Don't worry so much, dear. That scent comes from your other aunt-mothers."

Kaleina tilted her head. Yasenia sighed with a smile. "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. How about eating breakfast? Are you hungry, love?"

Kaleina squeaked with a high-pitched tone, and Yasenia knew she wanted to eat.

The dragoness naturally lowered her robes, and the little dragoness slithered across Yasenia's arm toward her chest.

The serpentine dragon reached her destination and immediately used her claws to hug the large breast and bite the pink nipple.

Warm and sweet milk filled her young taste buds, making her squint and start purring immediately.

Her vocal cords had developed enough to make lower sounds, and purring was also possible.

Yasenia's tenderly looked at her and used her arms to support her limp body.

Then, with the peaceful sensation of Kaleina's sucking, Yasenia closed her eyes again and continued cultivating.

Cultivating could only be done with peace of mind, and breastfeeding Kaleina was one of the most relaxing activities for our dragoness.

The energy around her easily flowed inside her body, reaching her meridians through her pores. Then, that energy made a trip toward her dantian, where the [Primordial Energy Core] absorbed it and transformed it into a refined version.

Following that, half of the pure energy released by the core was divided into four threads and went to different parts.

The first thread was the thinnest, and it was absorbed by Yasenia's [Empyrean Galaxy Domain]. It was currently an embryo and couldn't show much strength. However, it rivaled her other domain skills.

The second thread was thicker than the first, moving toward [Draconic Heart] and using it to nourish the Soul Equipment.

The third thread was the same as the previous two combined and was used to feed the [Celestial Pearl].

The final and fourth thread was double the previous three combined. The star in the middle of the solar system in Yasenia's dantian absorbed it greedily, slowly creating pure Celestial Energy.

The other half of the energy went out of the dantian and circled Yasenia's body to strengthen it and also strengthen her soul. The connection between soul-mind-body was the main struggle in the Unification realm.

It was a very gradual action, and one couldn't rush it.

Yasenia could observe her body and soul. Her soul was enormous, it was a dragon that spanned tens of kilometers, and her body was filled with rivers of stars. The face was different from her previous beautiful face. It was the face of a mature but magnificent dragon.

The golden claws and horns complimented the body, and the star and moon on her wings looked like a painting done by an immortal.

Her body was similar, but it was much less imposing. It was also in a dragon form; even if it was identical to her soul, it was dimmer.

'I should try to stabilize them. I'll increase the body strength first and then nourish the soul further when I feel a bottleneck. I'll also begin training my movement technique, [Constellation Steps]. I had it even before joining the academy, but because of the requirements to practice even the first level, I couldn't touch it until now and had to conform with [Lingering Star Steps], which gives me just a threefold speed boost. It's also a Magic Rank technique, quite lacking, to be honest. Therefore, my speed should increase exponentially once I reach the first level and above of the [Constellation Steps].'

The [Constellation Steps] have many levels, and Yasenia saw that she could unlock a [Constellation Pattern] with each level. 'Well, let's take it slowly.'

'Also…'

Yasenia observed the "Solar System" in her dantian and blinked at the fifth "planet" that appeared. The first planets were the [Celestial Pearl], [Primordial Energy Core], [Draconic Heart], and [Empyrean Galaxy Domain].

The fifth planet that appeared was ethereal and had a red, gold, and starry blue color mix. 'Are those… My intents?'

Yasenia tapped on them with her consciousness and felt that they were, indeed, her Intents—the [War Intent], [Monarch Intent], and [Celestial Intent].

Describing them was difficult.

They were like waves of energy that bent the space around them in strange ways, looking like something out of this World but strangely also part of it.

Yasenia shook her head. 'I know [War Intent] boosts my combat abilities exponentially. From what Tatyana told me, it is a combination of [Battle Intent], [Weapon Intent], [Wisdom Intent], [Slaughter Intent], and [Instinct Intent]. Naturally, the combination makes me a bit worse in each of those things.'

'[Monarch Intent] is more like suppression intent. A worthy Monarch is the leader and the strongest of a country. Therefore, I can make everyone in an area bend to my will and strengthen my aura and combat strength. The intent can also allow me to rule people easier and see through the hearts of people. I'll have hunches on those who want to betray me, and I can also easily identify talent.'

Yasenia's conscience cautiously approached the [Celestial Intent], but before she could touch it, Yasenia stopped. She could see the starry blue ethereal wave getting restless and unwilling.

'Although it is my intent, it is like it has a conscience. I've also tried approaching with Celestial Energy coating my consciousness, but I wasn't successful.'

'I need to comprehend what Celestial is, what it means to be Celestial, and what it means to become Celestial. I will be able to use this intent properly only then.'

Yasenia felt the relaxing feeling of Kaleina's feeding stop, and she opened her eyes while exhaling a breath.

She looked down and almost burst into laughter.

Kaleina was sprawled on her arms, her belly bulging a bit, and with an expression of pure contentment.

Her dear daughter would've ascended to Heaven if she were a little more relaxed.

'My dear is so cute.'

She lifted her and tenderly kissed her scaly stomach and the rest of her body. "I love you a ton, Kaleina."

Yasenia's and Kaleina's tails wagged as they shared a beautiful mother-and-daughter morning.

Meanwhile, Angel's formation group created various formations with effects like energy absorption, sound insulation, combat training, surveillance, registration, defense, shock absorption, structure integrity, and many more around the estate.

Tatyana helped with the general defensive and anti-surveillance formation around their territory. It was enormous, and she took the lead while teaching Angel.

She didn't reveal her formation strength to the harpies and gave Angel credit for her ideas. The motive was clear; Tatyana wanted to be a bit hidden. Even if they knew she was a negotiating and management monster, she didn't want them to know she was, well, a super senior.

After morning activities, breakfast, and helping around, Yasenia gathered all the harpies in the largest room to avoid being crammed.

The harpies waited for Yasenia to come, and they discussed the reasoning for this gathering among themselves.

"Why do you think the Matriarch gathered us?"

"I don't know. Maybe she is planning to reveal our first project?"

"Honestly, I don't care for what we are gathered. I'm content as long as I can see our Matriarch's body and gorgeous face. I haven't seen her since yesterday night!"

"Well… I can't disagree. Yesterday night I had quite a wild dream, after all. I had to change the sheets twice in the middle of the night."

"I can understand, sister. That thick tail surely is tempting."

Ghana sighed and commented. "Silence, sisters. The Matriarch is arriving!"

The door opened, and Yasenia entered the room with the other girls. She wore her revealing blue dress, and our girls wore formal white dresses.

Because of Yasenia's insistence, even Andrea was wearing one.

Because of the tightness of the dress, her very tall and golden-proportioned body showed off her usually hidden femininity.

With her figure for all the harpies to see, a loud and collective gulp sounded.

Just imagining being held between her arms and pampered by her was enough to make them restless.

"Crap, I didn't expect the heroic Lady Andrea to look so good in a dress."

"I-I want to be hugged by her."

"I want her to pat my head and praise me."

"I want her to cuddle me and groom my feathers."

Yasenia and the others couldn't help but chuckle. Their desires were so pure and cute that Yasenia couldn't get mad.

She secretly said. "See? I told you that they will like it, darling. You look outstanding in a dress."

Andrea was embarrassed. "Okay, I know. Please don't rub it on me."

Then, she complained a bit. "Hadn't I worn the dress you previously gifted me in the past? You should already know it. There is no reason to wear one before them."

Yasenia snorted. "But you only wore it twice. Put it on more often. This goes for all of you. I made them for you to wear, not for them to gain dust in your rings."

Kali commented. "But it would be such a shame if they broke."

Cecile nodded. "It is the first hand-made dress I received from you. I want to cherish and keep it intact."

The others nodded in agreement.

"Sigh, well, do as you want. I won't say anything about it anymore." Yasenia didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Yasenia reached the middle of the room and stood before the three hundred harpies. She smiled and said calmly. "Good morning. I hope your first night in our home was adequate. If you want to change and decorate your rooms, you can fill in an application and send it to the management team. As long as they are not outrageous, any request can be considered, so don't shy away."

They all said aloud. "Thank you, Matriarch!"

Yasenia chuckled. Then, she said thoughtfully. "We are a new power, and you all know very little about me and my Clan. Until now, I've made verbal promises and not actual material ones. I was testing all of you and seeing who would be uncomfortable with it. I apologize for something like that."

Yasenia didn't bow or anything but smiled gently at them as she spoke the last words.

The ruffling of feathers filled the room as some were a bit too excited at Yasenia's gentle smile.

"We forgive you; we forgive you."

"Right, right, the Matriarch can test us however she wants. Even tasting us in bed is possible."

Yasenia sighed and smiled helplessly. "All right, I know. Even then, I want to give you peace of mind. Most of you will probably have thought about this question. How will the expenses be paid? Are their riches limited? Will we be able to expand securely?"

Yasenia paused and observed their reactions. Seeing that some of them nodded without fear, she was satisfied. "Well, today, we are here to show all of you that we indeed have the ability to support all of you and even expand our operation teams many-fold. With our foundation, creating profit is easy."

Kali waved her hand, and a smooth wooden table materialized before them. It was almost twenty meters long and three meters wide.

Then, Yasenia waved her hand, and the room's aura changed.

More than one hundred treasures of different qualities filled the table.

The room's energy seemed to be drawn by them, a unique quality that only appeared in Earth-ranked treasures and above.

The faces of all the harpies changed from curiosity to incredulity like a coin flip.

Even Ghana, who had a general idea, was frozen stiff by the array of powerful treasures before them.

Naturally, one-hundred-plus Earth-ranked treasures wouldn't be that much. The problem was…

'These treasures are all Heaven-ranked!?'
