"How's the operation process?" Lady Maia asks as she arrived in the entrance and meet up With Yinhua and Inoue.
But Lady Maia notice the annoyance in the face of Inoue shown, as for Yinhua, she looks totally pissed off, both of them return like a desolated expressions, Lady Maia guess that something bad had happen to them and she then stop herself for a moment and then straightforward look to the two.
"I guess let's call it a night, Lady Sakura and lady Inoue, please rest and sleep for now, I know both you two are tired from the mission, tomorrow we will have a talk about what happen earlier" Lady Maia said as she presumes the outcome even though she also feel a little dissatisfaction from their situation right now.
Yinhua just let a sigh in disappointment and leave immediately, she never truly expected that her plan will be foiled by those dark mages, what's more, if she encounter them on battle, she already know that the two of them will have a hard time to deal with these guys, she need to go back to the starting point and make another solution for the farce she entered and set another countermeasure that will might be help for her.
As for Inoue, she retain her coldness presence again as she follow her master, she never anticipated that her master plans will be failed this time, but she knows that Yinhua are already plotting a plan and she need to be alone in order to concentrate, that's why she will never bother her master to extreme until Yinhua gains again her coolness and calculative attitude once she set her heart on completion of strategy and tactics.
Both the two walked for a moment and passed the soldiers and escaped survivors who help themselves to build their homes and to find food to eat and survive in this crisis, some of the soldiers are waving hand to Yinhua and dodge the stare of Inoue, Yinhua just waved back and smile and the proceed inside her temporary home, she then proceed to take a bath and Inoue follows her inside the bathroom and the two wash each other's back and enjoy themselves.
After that both of them eat for their supper and rest a bit, later Yinhua start another plan and methods to use based on the information she accumulated from the enemies, evidence, recent events and their position to the situation, she calculated what will be the lost and success of each option she have in mind, as for Inoue she still guard the door of the room of Yinhua, vigilant and full alert to her surroundings, extreme security and awareness in her location.
After few hours pass, Yinhua calls Inoue to come inside her room and invites her to sleep, both the two share on the bed morning comes, Yinhua awakens from her deep sleep and
Yinhua decides to meet up with Lady Maia and the rest and have a meeting but this time it is not about attacking the opposite sides and remnants of the Duke Christopher’s retainers, but to make a haste development city in the Fregalia kingdom.
“I know this is sudden but truly yesterday is my utter failure in deducting the enemy’s movement, my greatest apologize to everyone” Yinhua said in apologetic tone as she stands from her seat and face everyone.
“It’s alright Lady Sakura, don’t mind it, everyone has their own flaws to start with, truly we appreciate the way you help our kingdom established harmony is enough for us” Lady Maia retort and convincing Yinhua to cheered up and forget her failures.
“My grace and thanks Lady Maia” Yinhua answers as she start to smile again.
“You’re welcome, but for now what is now in your mind to set another plan to begin with?” Lady Maia said as a hint of excitement can see in her face.
“Yes, I have a plan, but this one is bloodless than before, instead of attacking and taking down the enemies one by one, we shall focus now in developing this ruin village and promote it into our first provincial region, we must focus on strengthening the whole vicinity of the area and start to spread it one by one, extracting the survivors is highly prioritize because they will serves as our manpower in developing and reconstructing this branch city of Lightenguard Kingdom” Yinhua explain as she rolled the map in the centre of the table and show the whole map of the Fregalia and Lightenguard locations and the other nearby kingdoms and dukedoms, she then pick a wooden long stick as her pointer.
“Since we are from south east location of the map nearby to Alphac mountain range boundary, we shall focus to development of the city move to north east and avoid the north west, these dark mages is very dangerous to up close, they planning something big in the dukedom, I want all the forces be wary in the north, west, and south directions” She said as she points the locating areas.
“Put a huge and tight security here when the back-up army arrives, magic sensory must be spread on sights to detect some invisible and undetected by normal visions, enemies sooner will know where are our exact location, do not be confident in our defence, alertness is appreciated and failure is not an option” Yinhua said in seriousness as she then point another location.
Everyone is starting to take notice of Yinhua’s target locations and think of how they will divide the forces to the selected area and manage the forces for the defensive formation regards to the situation they were in, even though they having a hard time, they still believing in Yinhua’s suggestions and options given, they know Yinhua’s capabilities and coordinating skills.
“There is a mysterious underground cave in that location, maybe that’s the dark mages territory or their camp, I’m sure of it, be wary, I felt they plotting on something, I don’t know but precautions and safety measures is needed” Yinhua added as she point an area in the map.
“Says that the dark mages made your plans to fail and foiled, anything evidences and lead to discover their identities?” Lady Maia asks as she fans herself with her elegant and ornamented fan.
“No, nothing is discover yet, these people are flawless, but still we are lucky that they didn’t spotted us when we sneaking behind them” Yinhua answers as she reminisces the events happen yesterday.
“Me and Inoue continue our investigation in the afternoon to night, but today I will focus on cultivating, best thing is to get strong and think more of appropriate plan and counter attack, everyone good luck on the task, “Operation Territorial Lines” commence!” Yinhua finishes as the everyone is exchanging their thoughts and opinions regards to the said planning, looks like it will be a long day for them, but they know that they just starting.
Everyone is starting to go back to their respective tents and command post, tasking their soldiers and guiding and aiding the villagers in reconstruction, Lady Maia send an immediate report to the Lightenguard castle for the situation that Yinhua involves at hand and what is the current status of the village that they reconstructing and renovating for the spreading of Lightenguard kingdom territory.
Yinhua starts to cultivate in her home and taking Spiritual Concentrating Pill to aid her in focusing cultivations, Inoue remain at her side as always as she glance at Yinhua and keep guarding her surroundings, after several hours. Yinhua reaches the four star, copper rank, Martial Commander, almost reaching the five star, she then walk outside as Inoue follows her.
“Inoue, you say about the classes about the rankings of the Celestial Maiden, when we have a conversation in the Sweet Smile Maid Café, can you specify more about it?” Yinhua asks as she precedes her walk.
“As you wish, rankings of classes of the Celestial Maidens depends on their own power, their master’s power and whole armaments they have, rankings begin in class F, known as the lowest and most inferior class of Celestial Maidens, but in this class belongs a numerous numbers, at the peak is the class SSS, known as the heavenly defying power peak, the Chaos strikers ranks at class C minus, the Five Heavenly Pillars ranks Class D plus, the Twelve Zodiac Empress ranks D and more” Inoue reports based on her past memories which never been erased in times of the generational battles have passed by the thousand years.
“I see, so your group are the strongest in starting point huh, Looks like I have a good catch not bad, warukunai!” Yinhua said as she felt a little joy in her big catch.
“Heh! Trust me master; you will have anything you want as long as you have me or my sisters” Inoue boast as she heeds her head high and mighty.
“Really huh? I’m afraid to tell you, even without you or this whatnot Celestial Maiden Tournament thing, I can get anything I want once I reach the pinnacle of the cultivation, trust me, I can have anything I want without any problem” Yinhua replied as she look at Inoue with mischievous face.
Well that’s true, if Yinhua reaches the supreme rank realm, anything she want to do become possible, creating realms, reviving dead, killing low level enemies with just a thought, even the rocks, she can turn them into gold if she want so, how will the Celestial Maiden can compare to her pinnacle of her reach, she may have a higher chance to recruit them and control all with possible feat.
“You’ve gotta be kidding me Master” Inoue answers in unconvinced tone as she crossed her arms.
“Right now, you won’t believe me, but when I reach the pinnacle, maybe it’s too late for you, Bleeh!” Yinhua said as she made a taunting face at Inoue and run away from her.
“M-master, wait!” Inoue shouts as she follows her running master.
“Faster! Aren’t you this slow, come on, I explain you the details of the plan I have in mind so you will become prepared for it, Inoue” Yinhua said as she runs in fast paced like a wind.
Inoue follows Yinhua, She never anticipated that Yinhua can run this fast, sooner the two reaches the eastern part of the Fregalia Dukedom, and saw some many houses in ruins and few survivors, Yinhua moves to the crowd and announce of rescue and renovation process will come this land, which brings joy to the desolated survivors, Yinhua cooperates with the people and help them to set their home and give them advices and options to survive until the help and reconstruction comes.
“Inoue, please scout the west side of the village, if you see enemy, report it immediately to me, so I can warn the people to run to the south and we will engage them to buy time for them to escape, copy that?” Yinhua orders as she flips the paper of per plan set for the village.
“Yes master! Your servant understood well” Inoue replied and run in burst of speed to west, as the villagers amaze in her speed run.
“That will be a good part, ok gentle men! Make sure we can finish the barricades and rock walls formation to upgrade our defence from wild monsters, boys be careful in hunting in the forest in the north and fishing at the bay, ladies make sure the clothing, medical supplies, herbs and other materials are prepared, kids! Make sure to aid your older sisters in the job, proceed!” Yinhua orders as she points the people in their job suits to their physics and age.
“Yes Lady Sakura!” The crowd replied with vigorous and hope in their eyes.

<<<<====/////░░░▒█▀▀█▀▀█▄▄▄█▀▀█▀▀█▒░░░\\\\\====>>>>
Meanwhile in the Lightenguard castle, Princess Erina takes the notice of backup of Yinhua and call for a meeting for the other lords about the said report dark mages in the west side of Fregalia, she was wondering which side of enemy those dark mages belongs, she then felt a little fear for them to harm Yinhua, she then task some expert archmages from the Lightenguard Mage Academy to back up Yinhua and to secure the lady’s safety.
“I hope you two can be a great service to my kingdom’s safety, especially to a woman who guides us to a great prosperity right now, make sure her safety was top prior, even if we lose in the territorial dispute in the Fregalia dukedom, as long as Lady Sakura is safe, we still have a chances to survive” Princess Erina said as she face the two archmages who deeply bow down to her throne.
“Your Majesty, we will make sure that lady Sakura will survive no matter the cost” the red cloaked archmage said as she then lifts her head and reveal her red hair strands resting in the right side of her face and her ruby red eyes.
“Even our lives is on line, we will make sure that she will be heavily guarded as your majesty wish” the black cloaked archmage said as he lift his head and reveal a white banged hair in his face cover his emerald like eyes”
“My grace and thanks, Marcia and Luciel, you guys are truly worth of my closest and best friends since childhood” Princes Erina replied in joy as she faces her two powerful mage friends.
“Whenever you have a call we will always be with you as long as you need our help, you’re Majesty” Marcia said as she smile and shown a peace finger gesture.
“Marcia stop that, be respectful to her Majesty!” Luciel said as she pricks Marcia’s head.
“It’s fine Luciel, no more formalities since we didn’t have a conversation to another in seven months ago” Princess Erina said as she smiled gently and signals the two to rise up from bowing posistion.
“Is that so, then we are at your care, your Majesty” Luciel said as he then relieved in the improper manner of his comrade and friend.
“ Shou! Luciel we shall move now, or else Lady Sakura might fall in real peril, right! You’re Majesty” Marcia said as she patted the shoulders of Luciel and smiles at him which make Luciel to feel down all of the sudden in her attitude in the face of Princess Erina.
“Oh right, you two should get going and guide her to safety, although she have the Legendary Celestial Maiden “Sword General” Inoue Yamato, I‘ve got a bad feeling that she will encounter much powerful dark mages based on the said on the second report from Lady Maia” Princes Erina said in deep concern as she felt a little chill in Yinhua’s situation.
“Wow, she subdues a legendary Celestial Maiden? Quiet the powerful feat she is, looks like this lady was a sky high achievement and glory beyond reach by any mages and knights, You’re Majesty, the kingdom was truly blessed such a fine woman serving the whole Lightenguard Kingdom” Marcia said in amazement and quite astonished.
“I heard that the evolution of industry and the economics are also comes from her, quiet the tinker, she is not just that strong but wise and have a views and knowledge beyond common sense on which part we live, looks like her view of generation adaption is beyond advance to us if I calculated the plan she implements” Luciel added and quiet amaze too to Yinhua’s planning and observation regards to the situation of the Kingdom.
“She is truly a blessed servant coming from the heavens, we are indeed lucky to have her on our side, the mass and the nobles can tag along now unlike in the past they quiet fighting for a petty reasons, Lady Sakura revise the law and also explain to us the effects on the both sides and she also gives some helpful yet reasonable ideas and methods” Princess Erina said in satisfied tone as she remembers the conference where Yinhua is explaining various plans, techniques and methods in a various arrays of implemetations.
“The by your will we move and proceed to your royal orders, Marcia, steadfast, let’s move!” Luciel said as he then look to Marcia.
“You’re Majesty, please take care, we are going to set off” Marcia said as she then bow to Princess Erina and turned her back which Luciel do the same thing and follow Marcia.
Princess Erina waves a goodbye to the two as they close the door and leave, Erina sits in her throne and the rest for a moment and wait for the another report from the Fregalia dukedom, it was another afternoon for her, she must do something for the kingdom in order to boost it growth and making the changes and development move in fast pace in order to improve the lives of everyone who is staying in their kingdom and territory.
<<<<====/////░░░▒█▀▀█▀▀█▄▄▄█▀▀█▀▀█▒░░░\\\\\====>>>>
As for Yinhua, she is inside in the simple house as she is totally busy in managing the people and give them some guidelines, she keep the people work on the flow and coordinated as well, just to ensure the work improvements will be fast and proficient, sometimes there is a fight and brawl occurred which is normal to these folks, Yinhua just stops the fight before its get out of hand and making a consent and negotiation to the people involves in the ruckus.
“Looks like the enemies are not yet moving, good, as long as they idle their attack we can manage to spread the operations without a problem, now how to face these retainers of the dukes with a lesser force needed, hmm?” Yinhua muttered as she thinks some tactics and strategies contrast to the environmental view and terrain formation of the location she steps in.
“Well, looks like I need to investigate more about the enemies territory and to ensure which plan will be the most effective and less crucial for us” Yinhua thought as she then proceeds to make another notes for another various implementation for the hew occupied territory and to seek what methods will be helpful for the growth of this village.
It was about nightfall, Inoue returns and the messenger that Yinhua sent for the back-up and support, the order was given now by Lady Maia and sooner the aid will come as the army arrives in their first camp, Yinhua felt relived as she sat leisurely in her wooden rocking chair, Inoue suddenly sat on the lap of Yinhua, which is to why surprised Yinhua a little about Inoue’s action then Yinhua hug Inoue tightly as the two rest in the chair and each ones sides.
Later that night, the squad army consist for hundred Calvary Knights, Hundred Mages and thousands warriors and archers comes to Yinhua’s location and start to guard the people safety, they become patrolling the area and the vicinity and even the nook and cranny to ensure a tight security from the assassins of the other retainers of Duke Christopher and the mysterious dark mages which Yinhua encounter yesterday.
Everyone is busy, as for Yinhua she is cultivating diligently, now she is in deep trance and tranquil state and also she taking some of her cultivation pills earlier and absorb them to ensure the easy breakthrough levelling in her cultivation, she still in the second pages of the supreme cultivation techniques and Intent Chants she is preceding right now this night, she felt the she retake her twenty-three percentage of her divine body.
Inoue is just watching at the sides and smiling at her master figure, she then look to the night starry sky and suddenly the images of Yinhua’s face and figure burn in her mind, the memories with her starting to swirl in her thoughts, she felt the intense heat and pressure within her as she recall the hot pool scene with Yinhua and can’t help to blush, she already fall in love with her master although they are both female.
Even though they have the both gender, she doesn’t care about it, it is only Yinhua and nothing else more about it, she is totally obsessed in Yinhua’s serene and calm demeanour and beauty, although sometimes she is angry at her, she felt the warmth concern of her master that reaches to her heart, her heart rate quicken all of the sudden and she felt agitate whenever she doesn’t see Yinhua, a feeling of concern, if only Yinhua was a boy, she is willing to be Yinhua’s first.
Suddenly, a burst of energy emits come from Yinhua, Inoue returns to her sense and she felt a sudden surge of power flowing in her veins and vessels, it was intense and astonishing, she saw Yinhua stands up and drenched in heavy sweats, Inoue summons from her brace a clean towel and rush to the sides of Yinhua in just blink of an eye, weeping the sweat in Yinhua’s body and savouring in the femine and tempting scent of Yinhua.
“Hey, easy Inoue, don’t be rash, it is not like I’m running away or something” Yinhua said as she felt the hard pressed of Inoue’s weeping of cloth to her exposed body parts.
“I’m sorry master, I will be gentle then” Inoue apologetically replied as she soften her touches to Yinhuas exposed body parts.
“You,, sigh, then do it as you please” Yinhua said in surprised in Inoue’s sudden changes, yet she smiled and patted Inoues head with her right hand as she removes Inoue’s hat with her left hand and put it on her head.
“We shall get going now, Inoue, you know already the plan right” Yinhua said as she look to the far north.
“Yes master, your servant understands well” Inoue replied as she intended to slide her both hands to the huge and plum chest of Yinhua and start to grope it.
“H-hey! Don’t do that! S-stop, bad girl!” Yinhua shouts as she felt the tingling sensation in Inoue groping, her face turned red in shock and embarrassment.
“Oh! My bad, sorry master, I will not do it again, forgive me” Inoue pleaded as she remover her hands that still clinging in Yinhua’s huge bust.
“Orakana josei, stop doing this again, hmph!” Yinhua said as she felt annoyed and then left Inoue as she walk away.
“Master, congratulations for another successful breakthrough!” Inoue said in congratulating tone as she tailed swiftly at the back of Yinhua.
“Thanks, surely you know enough how I handle myself, Inoue, be sure of your extended training and be calculating your movements” Yinhua replies as she look to Inoue while smiling.
“Master can rest assured, your servant do her best effort to catch to your expectations and continuously practicing some additional methods can be used for further improvements” Inoue said in impressing tone and head her high up and shown a prideful appearance.
“I see, then good, now then, let’s proceed and begin the sneaky peaky in that cave, Inoue, prepare for the mess we will encounter” Yinhua said as she then suddenly run in burst of speed.
“By your will master, I will follow” Inoue replied and suddenly run in fast pace and followed Yinhua.
