Ari Snow and Lily Snow ranked among the first selections. Hannah, a healer serving the Second and Th Legions, also made the list.
“Little brother, Caelan may have been a disappointment, but what he’s asking for this time would benefi both the family and the Empire. Shouldn’t you at least consider it?”
General Marston had barely returned from the battlefield when he found his older brother waiting insid his private lounge.
Finance Minister Oren Rockefeller had come prepared to persuade him.
Marston had no desire to be persuaded.
“The Fourth Legion bled for that single 2S-class core. We still don’t have enough Omegas for the front. Why would I waste time considering someone else?”
“Someone else? That’s your son-in-law!”
Oren’s expression darkened.
“Whether you approve or not, Caelan and Elias Whitmore have already completed a lifelong mark. Even i you refuse to consider the family, you should at least think about your own son
Elias’s reputation was poor.
Oren knew that.
But reputation meant little beside talent.
Besides, how spotless was the Rockefeller family’s own name?
The world was changing at a terrifying pace. Every additional high-ranking Omega gave the family another layer of protection.
Yes, they already had Helen.
But Helen did not have eight hands. How was he supposed to support Marston. Caclan, and Crown Prince Harold Mulholland all at once?
Caclan had the potential to become the next 35-class Alpha. His exclusive Omega could not be mediocre Just look at Orion.
Once Julian awakened, he would no longer be addressed merely as an Omega Excellency.
Mu become an Omega Sovereign.

He and Julian were brothers. Surely the gulf between them could not be allowed to grow this vast.
Otherwise, Caelan’s reputation for throwing away a treasure to chase scraps would become a joke across every legion.
What would the other Fourth Legion offers think of him then?
“No.”
Marston’s answer did not waver.
“I decided long ago that the Fourth Legion’s core would go to Lily Snow.”
He turned and left the lounge without looking back.
Giving the core to Elias might have been safer than giving it to Lily. It might also have benefited their family more.
But Marston was fair.
He would never put his own household above everyone else.
Oren watched his younger brother disappear, then slammed a hand against the table. Frustration clogged his chest until he could barely breathe.
Caelan called almost immediately, clearly seeking the outcome.
Oren rejected the call.
Then he rose and went straight to his son-in-law, Crown Prince Harold Mulholland.
He knew his younger brother.
Marston refused plenty of things.
That did not mean Oren had to abandon every plan Marston rejected
Certain acts were necessary for the family’s future.
His younger brother could remain honorable and spotless. As the older brother, Oren would carry the dirt.
He had been doing it for years.
News of the Omegas’ collective advancement quickly captured the entire Empire’s attention.
Everyone understood that being selected was one thing and successfully advancing was another.
Even so, the excitement was impossible to suppress.
Omegas were not merely rare.
They were genuine strategic resources.

Every new S-rank Omega allowed the Alphas under their care to unleash even greater combat power.
So what if they were support specialists?
Alphas fought over support this powerful. No one dared look down on it.
A healer was your second life.
There was no substitute.
“Nicole gave her core away? Who did she give it to?”
Ari looked puzzled.
Nicole was the First Legion’s chief healer. The legion had suffered catastrophic losses during the battle, so it naturally received a share of the six cores being distributed.
General Orion Ashford had said the Second and Third Legions had already received the 3S-class core. They therefore kept only one 2S-class core for their own candidate and gave the other to the senior Omega aboard the Ranger.
The remaining four went to the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Legions, one each.
Nicole had originally been the First Legion’s candidate.
“I’m not sure.”
Hannah shook her head.
The Second and Third Legions were about to gain an Omega Sovereign.
Who had time to worry about another legion’s Excellency?
Shadows of conflicting emotions crossed Lily’s face.
No wall remained airtight forever. Lily held considerable prestige within the Fourth Legion and plenty of people had been watching the allocation on her behalf.
She already knew that someone had tried to take her core.
Yet she was still a Fourth Legion healer. There were things she simply could not say aloud.
Fortunately, she did not need to.
A familiar figure soos appeared outside the advancement room.
It was none other than Elias Whitmore, personally escorted there by Caelan.
The young Omega’s skin was pale, and a crimson beauty mark rested beneath one eye. His looks were three parts dazzling and seven parts captivating, with a smutle that seemed permanently fixed on his face Fresh and untested, he rescinbled a red wild rose beaded with morning dew
