He promptly retrieved the body and core of the sages sent after him by the Elvin Empire. Additionally, he extracted two great beast bodies along with their respective cores. These two beasts were the ones they faced in the third trial inside the Tomb of the Deity of War: the Infernoscorch Drakon and the Thunderclaw Behemoth Great Beasts.

As the process began, he distanced himself to about 2 km. Earlier, he had sent his subordinates to hunt for Great Beasts and Saint Beasts. His goal was to create the ultimate Subordinates.
Sabrat had already provided him with the Saint Beast he and Rowan killed in the Viper Quadrant, and he intended to use that along with the Scorpion-Spider beast from the tomb to forge a dark and malevolent subordinate capable of wielding the 'Necronomicon of Forbidden Knowledge' book.
Aware that the possessor of such knowledge would unquestionably become his deadliest subordinate, he altered his plans. Despite initially intending to use one of the beasts to enhance Sabrat, the impending war forced him to make adjustments. He still had nine sage bodies, cores, and even great sage cores at his disposal. There would be many opportunities to upgrade Sabrat later.

Back in the Sundance Kingdom, the Princess, soon-to-be queen, made a public announcement about the impending war. While there was some chaos here and there, the most surprising development occurred after the announcement. Young men and women with slightly higher cultivation bases began signing up to participate in the upcoming war.
Realizing the upcoming war would be an immense challenge, they understood it wouldn't be fair to leave the burden solely on the Princess and the army. Their determination to fight for their Kingdom and their Princess outweighed the daunting odds. They weren't alone in this sentiment. Even the Adventurers, typically independent individuals with no allegiance to any kingdom, began signing up despite their usual nature.
In light of this development, the Princess called for another meeting with the generals.
"Little Vina, it seems your influence is stronger than I thought. Toddlers are even willing to die in your honor...General Elara spoke kicking off the start of the meeting.
"Auntie Elara, let's focus here for a minute. We have a decision to make...The Princess immediately responded changing the topic.
"Tsk, this is so dull," she muttered with discontent. She wasn't pleased with how things were unfolding, but she grasped the seriousness of the situation. Gathering herself, she prepared for the meeting."
"Have you all witnessed the aftermath of the announcement? What's our plan regarding civilians enlisting for the war?" Princess Vina inquired.
"While it's commendable to defend our kingdom, I believe they're underestimating the gravity of the situation. This won't be a typical war; we're up against six kingdoms with armies five times larger than ours," remarked General Damon.
"What General Damon said is true, but how do we convey the message that they can't join the war?" questioned General Malik.
"It's a challenging situation. On one hand, they're eager to fight for the Princess and their kingdom; on the other, they're driven by the fear of potential enslavement if we were to lose the war. I'm not implying we will lose, but hypothetically speaking," remarked the speaker.
"Refusing them this opportunity will crush their self-confidence," expressed General Elara, revealing the intelligence behind her mischievous facade.
A hush fell over the entire room as they collectively contemplated the issue. They were well aware that this decision wouldn't be an easy one. But before they could delve too deeply into the realm of decision-making, Sabrat broke the silence. He had arrived in the capital just a few minutes after Rasoul and his other subordinates had departed and he had been staying in the palace ever since..
"What if we establish a distinct unit for them? We can form a specialized legion to act as the last line of defense. Additionally, they could serve as essential support, transporting armor, food, and other resources between the three strongholds."
"Rather than deploying actual soldiers for such tasks, we can assign these civilian forces to handle it," Sabrat suggested. The general's face brightened upon hearing Sabrat's proposal.
They recognized the potential success of this plan. With some guidance, civilian soldiers could serve as a valuable workforce for the army. However, the critical challenge lay in their security. Despite their efficiency in transporting goods, the vulnerability of their security was a pressing concern. In times of war, adversaries often target the food supply chain to undermine their opponents in the long run.
As if Sabrat could hear their thoughts, he then provided them again with the answer for that.
"The Dark Minions will take on the role of security to guarantee their safety. As the Great Families join the war, I'll allocate a portion of the Dark Minions to serve as security for the civilians handling the transportation of goods," Sabrat declared.
"Are you saying that the seven Great Families will be joining the war?" General Cedric inquired in a shocked tone. They were aware that Rasoul had mentioned calling in a favor, but they hadn't anticipated a positive outcome. Knowing that the Great Families typically prioritized their own interests, Rasoul's success in involving them came as a surprising revelation to all present.
"Yes, indeed. Rasoul pulled in a favor, so expect their arrival soon. You'll need to coordinate with them to establish a more robust defense," Sabrat stated, dismissing the lingering shock in the air.
"I believe we should proceed with Sabrat's plan," Princess Vina declared. The other generals nodded in agreement, concluding the meeting. After they all departed, Princess Vina turned to Sabrat and asked,
"Do you think we can win the war?
"Princess, I don't know if you've noticed, but Rasoul is no ordinary human. As I see it, the Six Kingdoms should start shedding tears because when he's finished with them, the entire empire will be at his mercy," Sabrat declared, his shoulders held high.
"What you ought to be doing now is preparing to rule not just a single kingdom but the entire empire," Sabrat added, accompanied by a slight smile. This, of course, lightened the mood for the Princess for the time being. It's not every day that a Princess has to face off against six kingdoms without yet being an official Queen.

In the forest, Rasoul was resting on a sofa he acquired from the system when a thunderous sound echoed through the surroundings. He abruptly awoke, fixing his gaze on the source of the noise, located 2 km away.
About 1 km of the area was enveloped in a greenish aura. Lightning began to take shape within the aura, and thunderstorms relentlessly pounded the region surrounding the forge. After a relentless ten minutes of thunder and lightning, a 6-meter-tall winged humanoid creature emerged. Each step it took left behind traces of ice, fire, and lightning burns.
"What the hell is this monstrosity!" Rasoul screamed at the top of his voice the moment he saw the beast's full body emerge. The creature's appearance is nearly humanoid.
The Beast stands at an imposing 6-meter height. Its muscular humanoid frame is adorned with shimmering scales that alternate between icy blue and fiery red. The scales appear to be infused with arcane energy, giving them a mesmerizing glow.
Its wings, expansive and feathered, stretch wide, showcasing a gradient from deep blue at the base to fiery red at the tips.
The beast's eyes glow with an otherworldly intelligence, shifting between the colors of ice, green fire, and crackling lightning. Intricate runes, symbols of its arcane heritage, are etched across its body.
But the most bizarre thing is the armor and materials on the beast. It's in a sleek, metallic armor, the creature carries an ethereal, rune-engraved revolver on each hip.
"Even in his beast form, it seems he can still shoot like a gunslinger," Rasoul pondered for a moment.

[Name your Subordinate]
'Gunner Deathshooter...He named his subordinate.
(A/N: Wanna use Deathshot but I don't want any copyright strikes)
After the beast turned to his human form, a young man with Short white hair strands at a tall and imposing six feet and two inches, his figure both powerful and agile could be seen. His skin has a subtle iridescent sheen.
His eyes are a mesmerizing kaleidoscope of colors, reflecting the elemental affinities he commands - a combination of icy blue, green fire, and crackling lightning.
His facial features are sharp and well-defined, with a chiseled jawline and high cheekbones that exude an air of reality. A runic tattoo of a Dragon could be seen on the left side of his neck.
Rasoul continued to gaze at the subordinate walking towards him. However, just as he was about to command the system to clothe him, something unexpected caught His attention.
