Heavenly Harem Sect

It was none other than the Black Sword Sect to which he had given time for the 4 Elders to think carefully with their decisions. 

There won\'t be any consequences as to how their decisions will turn out, but it will be kind of disappointing that they wouldn\'t join his sect. 

\'It will be a bit sad if they don\'t join. But I can\'t do anything if they don\'t wish to do so. Even if after all I did serves nothing, then, I won\'t force my way\' 

He had done so much for them that if they rejected his offer, his efforts would have been wasted and it would be a learning point for him that he shouldn\'t chase every girl that he sees. 

Instead, they were the ones who should be desperately chasing him. 

"Well, let\'s visit the Black Sword Sect once again. Fresia, bring us to their destination" 

He ordered his disciple, and with a smile, Fresia summoned a portal that would lead to their destination. 

With his daughters on his hands and above his head, he entered the portal along well with his harems following his trail from behind. 

Eventually, they arrived at the entrance of the Black Sword Sect, and outside the gate of the sect, there were disciples who were guarding the entrance. 

Before Daniel could initiate a conversation with them, one of them was stunned to see a guest he didn\'t expect to come at all. 

"C-Call the Elders!" 

He shouted with fear in his eyes. His body was trembling and even his voice sounded frightened.

Nevertheless, his fellow friend followed his words as he sent a message to summon the 4 Elders. 

It didn\'t take that long before the 4 Elders swiftly arrived at the entrance with sweat across their faces and upon seeing their guests, the leading Elder sighed. 

"So...you have come again, Esteemed Guest"

Her voice sounded defeated and she was defenceless against the man who had killed the Sect Master and also the Male Elders. 

Mireya knew that one day he\'d be back for answers and the time she had spent pondering on what to do with the sect had stressed her mind so much that she had no clue how should she move on. 

Without the support from the Elders who were killed, the sect was falling apart rapidly and the resources were quickly declining at a rapid pace. 

Even with the help of her fellow Elders, there was nothing they could do except watch the fall of the sect as it declined slowly over time.

"Yes I did and this time I came to hear your answer. So what would it be? Would all of you and the female disciples wish to join my sect or would you just disregard it?"

Daniel smiled at the same time he knew what their answers would be. 

"If all of you join my sect, you won\'t have to face all these hardships and whatever you want will be granted. So what do you say?" 

He offered his hand and as Mireya gazed at his hand she shook her head and rejected his offer. 

"It is a nice offer but I will reject it and I will apologise to you if my answer has offended you"

Mireya and the Elders had thought about it carefully and their days of contemplating had concluded with a \'No\'. 

"But I thanked the Esteemed Guest for putting his way for us and I hoped that you won\'t be offended by the disappointment" 

She was afraid that her answer would have offended him, but it didn\'t. 

"Alright. Since that is your answer then I won\'t force you with your choice"

He retracted his hand and shook his head in pity. 

"But it is a shame though. I don\'t mind having a beauty like all of you in my sect" He complimented. 

"Then it\'d be fine if you\'d like to visit our sect for a cup of tea and if such a time occurs, I would look forward to it" She smiled lovingly. 

 "You\'re right. If such a day comes, I don\'t mind having a visit just to have a cup of tea" 

He responded with a smile and for some reason, it felt like he was rejected yet it wasn\'t a bad feeling. 

All this time, Daniel felt like the pace of building his sect had been so smooth and every disciple and elder he met had accepted his conditions immediately. 

Although he wasn\'t complaining about how everyone was so easy in entering his sect, he never thought that being rejected once could give a new feeling to it. 

He wasn\'t being emotional about it but rather it was kind of a new experience for him and it made him want to have her even more. 

Nevertheless, he won\'t be so adamant about her joining. Without a doubt, Daniel had a feeling that one day she would join his harem and all he needed to do was just let the time flow. 

"Without further ado, I will make my way then. If we have time in the future, let us spend our time getting to know more about each other"

Without wasting any more time, Daniel said his farewell to the Elder before departing to his next destination. 

"Same goes to you Esteemed Guest. I\'ll look forward to our time in getting to know more about each other"

Mireya responded with a smile and as she watched how Daniel departed and disappeared, she couldn\'t help but recall his words earlier on. 

"Hmmm? I thought you weren\'t interested in him Mireya? What\'s with longing face? Don\'t tell me!?" 

Out of a sudden, Neila teased Mireya as she caught her staring into the empty air with a face that yearned for something. 

"No, you\'re misunderstanding!"

Mireya tried rejecting her words but her reaction tells otherwise. 

"It doesn\'t sound convincing if you\'re overreacting" 

Hazely added and she couldn\'t help but smile on Mireya\'s reaction. 

All of them had already discussed this matter and their answers to it were adamant they didn\'t want to join his harem, but seeing Mireya\'s reaction, they couldn\'t help but teased her. 

"Come on Mireya, be truthful about it. How do you truly feel?" Cierra questioned with a curious expression. 

"I don\'t feel anything! All of you stop teasing me and get back to work!" 

She tried to deny their teases but it backfired since her cheeks were blushing. 

"It\'s obvious that you\'re lying, Mireya! Come on be truthful about it" Neila continued to tease and she wouldn\'t stop till she confessed to it. 

Eventually, Mireya couldn\'t hold it in and she confesses. 

"Alright fine! I didn\'t think he would be that good-looking now that we\'re more focused" 

She admitted that her face was facing sideways to hide her embarrassment. 

"But don\'t let it fool us. Don\'t forget what he had done" 

But it was only for a second that she remembered what Daniel had done and how he had murdered the Male Elders and for that she couldn\'t forgive his acts. 

"Sigh, you\'re right Mireya but if we don\'t do anything the sect would collapse and we\'re estimating about 3 months before our resources will run out" Hazely exclaimed. 

"Once our resources have been cut off, we have no one to rely on and our best option is him" She added. 

They weren\'t confident that they could gain another resource to let the sect run and a sect requires a tremendous amount of resources for it to sustain. 

However, it won\'t be long before one day the sect will close down for good and if such a day comes, they don\'t have any idea on what to do. 

Moreover, with the disciples, they were afraid that the situation would worsen and if such time occurs, who could they rely on?

"Let\'s not think about it now. For now, we should just strive for the best" 

She sounded defeated and she didn\'t want to rely on Daniel. 

She wasn\'t ignorant or unaware of his capabilities, but she hated the idea of relying on men to climb the stairs. 

She wanted to prove to others that she didn\'t need men to climb. However, the situation proved otherwise. 

With each passing day, her shoulders felt heavier as she was carrying the weight and future of 1 thousand or more disciples and if she made a small wrong turn, all of it would fall. 

Her mind was slowly wearing out and her mind was exhausted. 

Although she had the Elders to support her, it wasn\'t enough. 

With the decrement of resources each day, the weight felt heavier and she wouldn\'t know how long she could survive before she succumbed to depression. 

Although the answer was right in front of her eyes and all she needed to do was to just grab it, she was stubborn. 

But even then, her stubbornness would one day meet its defeat.
