Watching as Idonea and Marley destroy dantian, effectively losing their status as a cultivator and returning to a mortal, they promptly collapsed onto their knees, coughing blood amidst their pale faces.
"Ugh, t-that was painful." Muttered Marley with an ugly expression, breathing heavily as he wiped her mouth.
"Worse than cauldron burning?" Asked Elif curiously as he fanned himself with his Quạt tay while looking at Marley and Idonea, who promptly shook her.
"Not quite, your Highness." Replied Idonea softly as she wiped the blood from her mouth while carefully standing up.
Nodding, I summoned the two cultivation manuals from my dimension ring and floated them toward Idonea and Marley, which they grabbed out of the air.
"S-Shattering Heavens?" Muttered Marley with a raised eyebrow as she grabbed the glowing silver manual out of the air and observed it.
"Yang Devourer?" Said Idonea with furrowed brows as she grabbed the manual floating in front of her and opened it, only to heavily blush.
"Y-Your Highness, a-are these possibly... Cultivation manuals?" Asked Marley hesitantly as she skimmed through the manual before looking at Elif, who nodded, causing her to widen her eyes.
"T-That's why you asked us to destroy our cultivation." Added Marley quietly in shock as she read her manual, only to peek over Idonea's shoulder out of curiosity, blushing in the process.
"Yes, you're correct; you two have proven you're clearly loyal and faithful servants, but honestly, while you two are pretty strong servants in general, compared to the truly talented, you two are both somewhat weak. Fighting one entire realm above your own is decently impressive in the OverRealm, but that's the bare minimum in the Realm sect. It's debatable whether you two would even be accepted into the Realm sect." Remarked Elif lightly as he gently fanned himself while glancing at Marley and Idonea, his words causing them to be slightly taken aback.
"B-Bare minimum? I-I always prided myself on my talent, and while I don't have nearly as big of an ego as I used to, I still thought I was pretty talented. Yet, for Idonea and I only to be considered the bare minimum? That's a little shocking and discouraging." Stated Marley with an unsightly expression as she looked at Elif before staring at the cultivation manual in her hand, completely ignoring the numerous erotic images in Idonea's manual.
"Well, you should be thankful you follow such a wonderful, heavenly, and perfect being such as I..." Said Elif with a narcissistic smirk as he flipped his hair behind him and winked at the two, causing their blush to deepen slightly.
"... With those cultivation manuals, you'll be stronger than before, though, as you know, your natural aptitude hasn't been altered in any way, so don't expect to be able to fight two entire major realms above you." Added Elif lightly as he folded his Quạt tay and pointed it at his two followers, causing them to both nod as they got onto one knee and bowed their heads.
"We greatly appreciate your generosity, Your Highness, and we swear upon our Ancestors and dao heart that we'll faithfully serve as your followers until the banishment of our souls." Stated Marley and Idonea simultaneously, their vow of servitude causing Elif to faintly smirk, though it was hidden behind his Quạt tay.
"Hoho, well, then, you two best get to cultivating; we only have a few months before we set off to the Realm Sect, which should hopefully be enough for you two to return to your original cultivation base." Remarked Elif with a slight chuckle as he waved his hand, creating a gust of Qi that uplifted Marley and Idonea, bringing him onto their two feet.
"Oh, also, here is your actual cultivation manual, Idonea." Added Elif with a mischievous smirk as he summoned a manual that released a golden glow from his dimensions ring before floating it towards Idonea, who sighed in relief and grabbed it.
