P.O.V Aadi

I spend the last year saving money from selling crops and say goodbye to the kids although they are tower residents they are still real and will most likely have died before long, I get the last of the 1000 profit and hear the tower announcement.

---You have finished the task and can now go too the nest floor do you wish too continue or wait.---

I choose too wait and head out of the tower appearing after so long with no contact it is clear that my sudden disappearance caused panic as when I finally appeared I was immediately swept up and taken too a military check area and told too report all information and events.

I tell them of the mana and give them the notebook filled with information of haw too cultivate it and use it I tell them about me taking so long due too cultivating the energy without being able too absorb outside energy is harsher and requires much more discipline making it take much longer which is why I chose too focus on that while making use of our time distortion too get a head start.

I talk of the crops grown using it having unique properties as well as the fact that all the creatures using it where at least S-Class at least even if they don't have energy cores, just the energy alone is enough too make them S-class.

They insist I do a scan and a full body examination once my guarantee returns from the tower, I am told that until then I will wait within my dorm and not leave for any purpose as all my needs will be provided for until he returns. I am not even allowed too meet with Lucien or Nilan until after the scan is done.

I wait for nearly a month before Wyatt barges in too my room he seems tense and the look in his eyes makes me feel nervous.

I see soldiers come behind him and see them talk with Wyatt over the check up and medical scan which Wyatt tells them too wait until tomorrow for as he is tired from the tower and needs a break and he will remain with me until then, the soldiers leave and silence returns too my room.

Wyatt sits in front of me at the dining table, "I have not had the chance too read your file as I rushed here after hearing you had returned too make sure there were no potential problems, I would like too hear the events that transpired from you."

I tell him the same that I told the council not mentioning taking care of those children or pushing back my cultivation because of them, I know I would be seen as ignoring my duties and wasting time for such thing but I couldn't leave them vulnerable like that, not after all the help there father had given me.

I see Wyatt relax and after an hour of discussing and him asking me of the details and smaller things we finally reach the end and Wyatt begins too small talk over what he had done in the tower and how his time had gone.

I knew that the demons where there but too hear that many tower climbers were killed because they believed they were demons was unexpected, although I used only mana there and no one questioned it due too me having someone claiming me as a relative, others would have far greater difficulty.

Wyatt talks over his inability too go past 50 mana and says that he will try my cultivation method later as too see if that is the reason for him being unable too advance.

Night falls and Wyatt offers too sleep on the couch but my bed is more then large enough too fit both and as he claimed too stay in order to watch me during the night he might as well just stay with me, he seems shocked I offered but agreed. He is dressed in only a pair of shorts the soldiers brought him along with having used my shower, I can't deny he is my type with his perfectly fit body and looks but he is still my guarantee and so I can only look in pity at what is without a doubt the most perfect man.

I lay down in my own blanket and Wyatt uses the blanket the soldiers gave him, I lay on the left and he on the right making sure there is enough space for neither too be in the others personal space.

I could hear his breathing and felt myself drift off from the sound and sense of safety brought by him nearby.

Waking the next morning I get up once more too the smell of food and a bright sun shining through my open windows, getting up and entering the kitchen I see Wyatt fixing food in the shorts he wore to bed along with a short sleeve shirt he most definitely did not have on last night. But as I go too question him on it he says, "Pancakes are almost done and we will head out for the medical check soon so go get ready while I finish up your food so while you eat I can get ready myself."

I go back and shower along with basic hygiene and change into military uniform, I exit the bathroom too food on the table and Wyatt taking clothes from an officer.

I sit at the table and eat while Wyatt gets ready.

Once we are both finished we head out going too the medical office where there is several council members and scientist waiting for me too finish with my medical check.

Like all the times before I enter the tube and wait for it to finish while having Wyatt hand me my clothes once I am done it is a normal procedure by this point, after I am done me and Wyatt head out for team meeting and training as well as practice spars against us too get them used too fighting those with more powerful and unique energy as although no other low level world is known for mana we have it which means others could too and it is best too prepare for that in the long run.

As the 2nd month out of the tower passed we talked over what we will most likely be doing on the next floor as it is clear the tower is drastically different no matter if you do it by region or by oneself.

We don't know what it will be but clearly internal fighting is more then fine with the current tower and even more encouraged as although some internal fighting was done in our tower it didn't directly pin you against each other consistently like this as all three floors and the tutorial have proven that you will not only need too fight others but also amongst yourselves.

Although no foreknowledge of the next floor as those on it have yet too pass we talk over all the possibilities and finally after waiting 2 months we are finally allowed too return to the tower.

It has been five years since the tower reset and we have only made it too floor four truly if one wishes too climb the tower it will be a push, as even the best are now struggling on the early floors I can only imagine what it will be like after the beginner floors are over.

Appearing where I left we had decided too meet up where I am at as it is the safest location, waiting for them too come I head too a Inn to rent a room while waiting for them as I already handed the house and all my belongings over too the kids as I can't bring most the stuff to another floor. I wait nearly a week before Wyatt and the rest show up and once we are all here we finally go too the next floor.

I appear in a beautiful room filled with silks and gold clearly showing the opulence and high standing of the owner, after waking I get up too check out the room but a tower quest shows up.

---You are currently acting as a consultant and aide too the princess who is to wed the king of south who is known for his violent and harsh temperament, you are too have them wed and follow through with the agreement. Your task will be finished once the first child of the wedded couple is produced and officially pronounced the heir.---

I am now in the position too either do this easily or the hard way depending on the personalities and willingness too succeed from both sides.

Getting dressed in a white button up shirt with flared sleeves that cinch's at the wrist, a silver vest along with silver dress pants and white shoes. I make sure all things look presentable and head out, the timetable for the person I am currently acting as was written in there journal along with basic information.

I head too the princesses chambers too help pick out outfits too wear and wake the girl up so as too make sure she is on time, next is too get her too the dining hall for family breakfast.

She is the daughter of the fifth concubine but the only girl born into the imperial family which allows her too gain a high marriage despite her being born from a lower wife, she has been officially adopted and raised by the empress precisely so as too have her loyal too the empresses son instead of her full blood brother as too make her a good bargaining for outside alliance too protect her sons position.

Many of the emperors children have tried too over throw it but most have failed as the loyalty of the south is important as they are the biggest producers of food and medicine, making the emperor have too make sure the current king won't betray or short him as either could lead too big problems and the other kings have all married an imperial princess in the last three generations so marrying them is not viable. This leads only the south king as being in need too reassure the loyalty and faith in the empire.

Making it so the current princess has no way too chose her spouse in any capacity and unfortunately for her the southern king knows this and has already claimed many concubines and second wives all waiting too throw her off from her position of first wife and as long as she fails too produce a legitimate heir within her first two years that is exactly what will happen.

I am in for a rough time as he is a playboy with little interest in the princess short of his required duties and she will receive no protection due too her mother being a lower concubine.

Not only that but this world has only the most basic energy of life energy not even having evolved into physical or mental energy making it so they can only do small things like healing small wounds or making a ball of water and even that is considered talented.

I am in the body of someone with high talent in healing and was assigned as her aide precisely because of that so too guarantee the child she has safety.

I am an veteran from the barbarian war against the northern lands who both fought on front lines and healed once the battle finished making me a high standing official, unfortunately I am also the son of a whore bought by a low grade noble and anything I succeed in is claimed by my father making it so I can only climb to a barely acceptable position despite my great strength and deeds.

Seriously the tower put me into the hardest position it could with a near impossible task and with no way too get support from anyone.

I wait for the princess too finish her meal before beginning manners and wifely duties teachings as too guarantee she is still up to par on them so as not too ruin the face and reputation of the imperial family, tomorrow is the day of the marriage and is when my task truly starts but tonight I feed her a glass of Black tea with maca put in too promote fertility.

She most likely will have few chances too ever get pregnant and it is best if it happens on her first time as it will make her position solid from the start.

I wait till she sleeps before putting healing energy in her body all night as well as make sure she is near the optimal time for such thing and it appears they made sure the wedding took place at such time as well, after the first night I will give her more healing energy and fruit drinks for the princess so as too help her body if it is pregnant truly the next coming days will show how easy or hard my task will be.

The wedding begins the next day with the wife dressed in bright yellow with hints of red so as too show a happy and prosperous marriage the princess is veiled and lead too the wedding halls for the marriage, the whole time I remain right there giving her maca laced tea and small bits of healing energy making sure she did not touch another glass or ate from any of the dishes.

Best too prevent poisoning if possible so she cannot eat anything fixed in another's home and the food is supposed too be fixed by the husbands home so as too prove he has plenty to keep there daughters happy, the more opulent the banquet the better the man.

As night comes I wait in the side room too do the customary bride consummation celebration where the bride will have her first night next door for all too hear, it is a show of a future happy marriage and that the whole community supports the marriage.

The small talk and murmurs through the room are kept low as is expected so that we may hear the sounds of next door to make sure the couple truly go through with it.

A loud moan from a clearly masculine voice is heard then a creaking a small gasp from a woman and the sound of a bed hitting the wall as more of such sounds flood the room, many people have begun too turn red and a few have even become hard from the noise but they are not allowed too find pleasure before the couple finishes theirs as a sign of respect but it is expected for a mon too do so after them too show there virility and masculinity.

Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.

I do not bother as I am here as a dual sex being a person not a woman or man and in this world if I was too impregnate someone the child would also be duel sex but if I got pregnant the child will be male no matter what.

Many cultures have different beliefs for mixed genders like me but in this empire it is considered a deformity and they are expected not too reproduce fortunately for me as that means I will not be expected too ever marry, as one would expect from me in any other circumspect.

The sound of a scream of pleasure and moan along with the movement stopping means the couple has finished there task and we can now indulge and indulge they do many pulling there parts out for all too see and not even hiding there acts of self indulgence, the women who came with the men even began too join them in there pleasure by beginning too aid there husbands in there act some even had full on sex in public.

Although not taboo or even inappropriate too speak of in Ira it is still expected one too keep common decency but here that is non-existence making it so orgies like this are common and done at almost all festivities.

I am forced too wait on the side as they last all night enjoying themselves and indulging in there acts of depravity, once morning comes the celebrations finish and all guest are sent too rooms to rest and clean up before they are too return home, I wait outside the consummation room as the husband leaves he had been dressed in customary face mask last night but now his face is open and his outfit is hardly covering anything.

He is a tanned skin man with a little fat and no muscle clearly having never worked a day of labor in his life, but also having been born in the south where most people are born innately tanned due too the indigenous people they have inter-married with.

His hair is like fax wheat and his eyes dark green he would look good if not for the fat on his body truly a waste of good genetics, once he leaves not even bothering too pay attention to me I enter the room to help the princess.

She is now non-veiled as is considered improper for unmarried woman but she is now married and no longer needs to wear a veil unless her husband asks it of her or she is pregnant, I prepare the fruit drink and small fruit bowl along with using healing energy on her while I wait for her too awaken from her exhaustion.

She has light brown hair and blue eyes with star pupils that show her as an imperial princess but is unlikely too be passed down as the gene is weak in women.

She is skinny with slight muscle from dance and horse riding along with calluses from playing the harp and calligraphy she looks like she has done more work then the so called strong man she married.

She wakes with tears streaming from her eyes but makes no noise or complaints as she know her duty is too play the happy wife and continue the marriage as much as possible, I feel some respect for the girl as she is most certainly angry and upset but will do as her family needs of her.

I wait on her for the next 3 weeks making sure she eats plenty of fruits and less meat along with making sure she does not do any physical task and she is kept in perfect health, the morning of the 24th day of her marriage she wakes and promptly gets sick.

I call a physician but am certain it is what everyone has hoped for and when the physician checks it is confirmed the princess is already pregnant and a strong pregnancy at that as the child already has a powerful life force.

Of course the child has a strong life force I have been giving it mana healing in small doses through it's first three weeks of existence if it wasn't powerful I would be worried, but with this the joy of events is announced and many unhappy woman can be seen as this guarantees her position as first wife whether the child is boy or girl as she got pregnant with one go proving her high fertility and pushing any bad rumors or claims out of the way.

I know there is still many things that could go wrong but once the child is born as long as it is a boy the position and strength of her will grow as although married too many the southern king has only one son currently too a low grade whore, meaning this child will have no competition for heirship.

Now my sole duty is too protect her until the child is born then raise the child too a fine adult too guarantee he will have no dispute over inheritance.

It will be a long time till finished but it will be easier once the child is born too know my future path.

Time passed slowly with me giving her my energy all the time and making sure she is in perfect health with no complications or problems the first three months and most dangerous time passes with the child safe and well protected when the physician comes for another check a surprise awaits all.

"There is not one but two children in you both have great strength and potential already even before birth as long as you can withstand this pregnancy you will bring forth a set of powerful children."

"Did you hear the first wife is pregnant with twins and they are both high in potential even in the womb."

"One time and already producing two children truly the southern king got the perfect woman, such high fertility plus his virility has produced excellent children."

Rumors spread like wildfires and within a day everyone knew the princess was with twins and powerful twins at that.

Her position was strong and high and the chances of one of the two being a boy was much higher then if there was only one meaning she is most likely carrying the heir, many supporters flock and the women with daughters in the harem come too suck up as she most likely will determine their daughters marriages in the future with her position safe.

Time flies through the last months meeting one person after another and guaranteeing her safety and health when at the 8 and a half mark her water breaks.

Nearly two days of pushing and hard work when the cries of two healthy babies are heard as all but the wet nurse attends too her as I will only be call in case of complications, we wait for the announcement of the genders and two babies both wrapped in blue blankets leave the room.

Two heir potentials at once and from the sounds of the physician testing the boys both have high potential for cultivation, two perfect heirs at once truly the princess couldn't have done better if she tried.

-----Time skip 5 years-----

The boys are already showing heightened intelligence and physical strength no other child could match, I have made sure the children have not been spoiled or given all they want making sure they know working for somethings is needed and beginning too teach them the basics even though they are still young and now that they are five physical training and combat can begin in full.

I wait in the training hall for the boys too arrive when the second wife heavy with child walks by, she has been in joy over her second pregnancy hoping it is a boy as she hopes too try and stake claim on heirship as although two more boys have been born amongst the low concubines they are not nearly talented or capable enough too outshine the two boys.

Her child nearly ready too pop is a high potential child and as the second wife and cousin of the current eastern king she hopes she can regain her footing and position as potential first wife and mother of the next southern king.

Of course her child will need to work against a five year difference and two against one as the boys already show great unity and loyalty too their twin, add the emperor's favor and the chances of gaining the heirship is essentially zero but if anything happened too the boys or if they proved incapable then her son would have a chance and no woman in the harem is above sabotage or even assassination.

The boys need too be a able to protect themselves even in a tight situation and it is best they start training for that as soon as it will not cause potential problems to their health.

If this continues to go cleanly then by the fifteenth year the kids will most likely be named heir and nothing the second wife does will change the fact my objective was completed, all it needed was for the kids too reach the age of majority in this country.

I am harsh on them making them learn combat, tactics, all basic school courses, along with cultivation as they need too make use of the great potential I have given them.

As there tenth birthday rolls around they are doing beautifully and are soon to be assigned apprenticeships under the stewards and arms master when a rapid change occurred, on the day before there tenth birthdays monsters appeared and energy began to be released by the planet similar to what one would expect when a planet awakened it's unique energy.

This world had finally properly joined the tower connection and like in my original world people where not prepared as many small villages and towns where demolished and the strength of the stellar empire dipped due to the death of many soldiers and civilians.

That day the southern kingdom was attacked but I took control on behalf of her highness and the boys too command them to protect the borders and let the kings guard deal with the monsters in the capital while the military went out and cleaned our borders as well as protected the crops and farmers.

It is only early spring and the stock of food is on the lower end due to the winter so we need to guarantee food production is stable.

I talk the boys through my decisions and have them help in the emergency commands on where to send the soldiers and where is most vital too protect for the sake of the country, it took almost a year too clean up and straighten out the problem but the rest of the empire is decimated as many nobles did not bother helping the commoners or protecting there fields and farmers instead prioritizing the nobles in there respective capitals.

Even the north king with the best military due to fighting barbarians all year didn't do well as they lost half of there army and almost 80% of there grain reserves barely enough grain too feed there remaining soldiers through the battles that have come this past year.

With a monopoly on food and a good position and high backing the boys have gone from potential rulers to nearly already ruling despite there young age as there father was to busy indulging in women at the time to bother with any of the problems.

Truly if not for me and the boys this entire empire would probably collapse in the next five years from such things.

But the empire is in dire straights the only up side is this is happening all over and not just in the empire so other nations will not attack but we are greatly weakened and need allies to get through this period and the only ones close enough with enough military strength to do so is the northern barbarians.

I speak with the boys and my advice to them is that the current chief has yet to web if we propose one of their elder sisters to him for wedding purposes as a sign of alliance to trade them men for food that we are still in abundance for now that food production has restarted.

Although we will need to ignore others in the empire for this to fully work as long as the king can agree to allow it then any harm can be suppressed.

The eldest boy Chimon and his younger twin Chikao both have shown great talent and so when the letter of marriage to form alliance for protection comes to the emperor he is hesitant but knows they have little other choice if he wishes for the empire to continue to prosper.

So an envoy is sent to the northern lands waiting for there reply to the offer, a month later the reply comes.

A meeting shall be held by both parties in the northern walls in no mans land and all candidate for the marriage are to be present so as to see there ability to withstand and survive in there region and under there culture.

The meeting is set for the third full moon of the year in three months from now packing happens quickly and all the daughters of the southern king are expected to come no matter if they already are engaged or not as you do not know if they may be the one chosen.

A week later the convoy of the eldest twin Chimon and me along with 100 guards and 16 women set out for the alliance meeting.

The north is a cold land with little vegetation and from the reports many monsters, although many have begun to awaken a more advanced and powerful energy(Mental energy) few have properly adapted to the new energy and the few who have are those that cultivated life energy before hand too an extreme and that was only ever those that reached the level of general or me who is dual sex and therefore not considered a true person.

As we ride on our carriages and powerful steeds past a large stone wall with soldiers on it all in gaunt and tired looks almost as if they will drop at any moment.

The military of this region is horrible barely able to hold afloat much less deal with a potential threat from our neighbors, I see Chimon also see them and tell him, "You are a ruler and if you mess up that is the fate of your people and an even worse fate awaits you if you do not remedy it."

I can see his seriousness at my statement and so we continue out into the frozen landscape where the snow falls so continuously that you can barely see a foot in front.

We come to a cavern area with fires and furs all over and many people wearing leather and fur outfits and there bodies are filled with muscles, they sneer at our week nobles and soft women clearly not impressed with what has been brought as future wives.

A man with white hair and black eyes comes out and although no one else can sense it I recognize that energy anywhere, the man who they are bowing to and is clearly the chief is Wyatt.

I keep my face blank and my manners immaculate as Wyatt walks to our envoy and looks at me, my person is one that has fought on the front line and has even fought against the chief before so it would surprise no one that the so called chief recognized me and was interested in me.

"I welcome the chief and thank you for being willing to think of a alliance despite our past disagreements, we hope that each side will prosper with this agreement." I truly raised Chimon properly as he is neither assertive nor demure in this statement.

I see others scoff but Wyatt's eyes do not leave me and I can see the other barbarians have noticed this as well and are looking in my direction, in battle I wear a helmet and the only time the person I am acting as has ever had it knocked off is against the chief so none of the soldiers recognize me except for the chiefs second in command.

The second in command looks at me in a greedy way I have seen only on the face of the soldiers back in Neelan the look of wanting to posses.

"You bring me weak women like this as offering have you decided to spit on our culture like this while speaking of both sides prospering, truly it is as though you hold no respect for us." Wyatt says and I hold back my wish to glare as he is making this trickier then it needs to be.

"I apologize but I have no dual gender siblings and so I am unable to bring one for the marriage offer." Chimon says, clearly understanding that although in our empire dual genders are seen as deformed people over there they are seen as perfect wives as a guaranteed son or a future wife that is as strong and capable as a man makes it so the seek them out as first wives.

Unfortunately the snow gene of there region is incongruous with the gene for dual gender making it so most dual genders can only be brought in from foreign marriage and most foreigners are unwilling and most duel genders outside do not bother learning combat and are instead treated like women making them weak and not much better then a woman raised in the northern region.

"Well you brought a perfect candidate for my first wife along side you so I wish to make a slight change to the proposed alliance, the advisor next to you is healer Koju from the front army is it not he is perfect for our culture and appears quiet attached to your family since he is here as your assistant."

The men on the other side zeroed in on me looking me up and down ad the stare at me, my looks are similar though my hair is more silver and eyes more yellow.

I am without a doubt a beauty and to be strong and healing along with said beauty makes me the perfect wife by there culture as a duel gender but the problem is how did the chief know I am duel gender.

"I was not aware the northern chief had knowledge on me being a duel gender person tell me where did you gain such information."

The only way is if someone told them which means a traitor most likely from the imperial family as they would not wish the southern king to have his daughter married to the chief of the north.

I can see the men of the north shift at this statement in shock but neither the chief nor the second in command show surprise at the reveal of me being a duel gender person, the looks of greed appear then are pushed out as they know there chief has already made his claim to me and they have no hope to get me unless they beat the chief.

Wyatt looks at Chimon and says, "I agree to all the other offers but my bride will be Koju not one of your sisters if you agree then I request the right to properly meet and accompany my future wife over the coming week as we flush out all the details."

Chimon looks to me and I look in Wyatt's eyes before turning back to Chimon and nodding my head, I am to be wed to Wyatt better then if it was the actual chief as Wyatt will not expect children from me.

"We can begin negotiating both our trade and the wedding over dinner."
