After I returned from the inspection of the Sardaukar Forces, I went to check up on my Familiars as some of them were already close to evolution.
All of my familiars lived in the Sanctus Imperialis, and the first one to check on, I went to take a look at Dou Dou.
Some time ago, I gave her several corpses of Etoulde Spirits that were on the same level as Super-Devils, and even before that, I gave her corpses of some Titled Douluos. Evolution for Thorny Flower species was very hard in the latter stages as they required a lot of nutrients to push themselves even further.
When Dou Dou reaches Apocalypse-Class, she will be one of the most excellent guardians of the Imperial Palace, making it even more dangerous than it is right now.
As I looked at my familiar, she looked happy, knowing that another source of fertilizer would be now delivered, which is partially true, as I had several corpses for her of high-ranking individuals that I had killed.
When I studied her closely, I noticed that Dou Dou had already reached Emperor Level and has evolved into Thorny Flower Demoness.

Thorny Flower Army - 50,000 Grand Commander Level
Great Thorny Flower Treant - 500 General Level
Thorny Flower Protector - 25 Marshall Level]
Such abilities and stats would be a problem to deal with even for many stronger Super Devils, especially its vitality was really terrifying, taking into account the fact that Dou Dou became Thorny Flower Demoness and reached Emperor Level only not long time ago.
Additionally, she had an entire army of Grand Commander Level Thorny Flowers as her command, which was enough to draw even Super Devil; coupled with 500 General Level Great Thorny Flower Treant and 25 Marshall Level Thorny Flower Protectors, she was an army on her own.
This army was the result of cultivation through centuries as she ate and digested every death row criminal in the Chthonian Empire and managed to create such a trump card for me. For that reason, I have let Dou Dou stay in the Imperial Palace, so she can protect my family.
Dou Dou didn't do anything through the centuries; she just digested the fertilizer everyone brought to her. Be it me, my family, Custodians that killed strong foes, Commissariat who sent her hundreds of death row criminals every year, or scavenged corpses from battlefields that ranged from Low-Class to even Satan-Class sometimes.
All of that was used to cultivate Dou Dou and her Flower Army.
As I was observing Dou Dou and thinking about how to help her evolve, even more, I heard Isla meowing at me as I lowered down, as I scratched her behind her ears, as she purred at me.
Little Isla was no longer a little kitten as it was during the Great War, but now she was a full-fledged Wampus Cat that was just a bit smaller than Dark Devilgod Tiger Heishen.
After so many years of training, Isla was now Monarch Level Magical Beast. Among my Familiar, one could say she was the most normal one, as she didn't have the soul-devouring ability of Heishen or the ability to digest corpses as Dou Dou.

Abilities: Illusion Magic, Mental Magic, Elemental Magic - Fire, Wind]
I was happy that Isla reached Monarch Level, even though the environment for Monsters, Magical Beasts, and other similar creatures wasn't that good for them, as Baator only recently recovered and was recovering to a Grade 3 Plane, and magic density was slowly rising, and to increase it, even more, would require more drastic measure, that is not planned to be carried out now.
Unfortunately, they would be truly useful only after my familiars reached Apocalypse-Class in the great scheme of things.
Not that Isla complied as she liked to eat, sleep and cuddle. Every time my daughters or I came, she would always ask for pats, scratching, and cuddling.
Meanwhile, my newest familiar, Heishen, and my other familiar, Jin were more bloodthirsty in nature, and they itched for a fight; thus, I often released them to dangerous areas of the Baator where they could fight.
After the Baator started recovering, a lot of monsters and magical beasts of creatures started appearing in the Baator, creating literally forbidden zones. For example, Sunset Monster Mountain Range now was a true forbidden area, as it was swarming there with Monarch Level monsters and even more Emperor Level ones. Meanwhile, General Level monsters could be seen practically everywhere there, together with Marshall Level.
Heishen, the Dark Devilgod Tiger, was already at the General Level and was growing steadily, while my last familiar, Jin has, reached Emperor Level a long time ago.

Abilities: Darkness Control, Shadow Manipulation, Anti-Divine, Devour]
Jin had the appearance of an enormous pitch-black wolf with shining red eyes.
I have created him from the Sacred Grear, the Longinus Canis Lykaon, through manipulation of Laws, advanced magic, some mysticism rituals, and arcanotech.
I managed to create a geniue living creature by extraction of the Soul inside Canis Lykaon, giving birth to the Wolf God. Not only did he retain his abilities to Control Darkness and Manipulate Shadows, but he also gained Anti-Divine ability, which made his attacks especially effective against anything Divine, and also had the ability of Devour, which allowed him to Devour energy to strengthen himself.
