The auras of the soul weapons my generals pull out from their item storages all give off extremely strong and strange vibrations that I can't understand. Well, other than Maria's which I cannot even sense.
The ones that do give off readable energy waves all have a tint of Noble Vibrations laced into them, but at the same time, feel unique and different from my own or any of the noble demons I've felt with similar power.
With the seals blocking me from using my own vibrations to analyze them, it makes things tough, and the fact that they are all still yellow core makes this even tougher.
While they may have been impossible to match in strength in the Lower Realm, capable of bringing 1st Class worlds to their knees, the jump from yellow to green is still massive.
There are plenty of Lords on this citadel with enough power to match them as they are now.
We only have 8 days left before the Vermillion family becomes suspect too, as this is when I'm scheduled to meet the family head and have my avatar recalibrated to link to the 5 Great Families.
My generals are in no position to help me yet.
So, I push these thoughts to the back of my head and begin to explain how this ascension chamber works.
Each of them walks to the center of their bottom rooms, and I make small-scale tweaks to the atmosphere as my presence here does change the structure of this craft.
Though, after a thorough explanation and re-analysis on my part to make sure the blood-bonded luminite triggers are still stable in all 4000 chambers, they all begin a long process of their next stage in training.
All four generals sit in the center of their rooms and begin cycling the energy in the air through their bodies.
Once every room is drained, they will teleport upward, and by the final floor, they will have gained 2.5 million Low Quality Ether each and consolidated their green cores.

"Good luck. – And use every resource you have available to you. My self-regeneration skill, plunderer, mana manipulation, borrowed stats, everything. What you're attempting to do now is not the natural state of progression. Lords do not keep their bodies in the Upper Realm, not even the strongest Demons. So, to beat the odds and break the normal rules of reality up here, you will need to be creative in your own rights to figure out how to do so. I've built the infrastructure, and trust me, it can handle whatever you throw at it. Finish your ascension."
I smile as I get nods of approval and understanding from everyone, and I walk out of the central tower the same way I came in to see Ava still waiting for me behind a protective orb of light magic and ether.
There was a small amount of doubt in my mind a few weeks ago that they would be able to mutate and adapt their bodies to assimilate to the pressure up here, but seeing how much they've already changed and grown, that doubt has completely left me.
They'll succeed.
The fact that I'm certain they will is the very point that twists my facial expression and keeps me silent as I float up the tower with Ava next to me.
With a few hand movements while we rise upward, the massive split in the Citadel shifts back together.
A few thousand fast travel orbs are summoned, as curious lords wander onto the empty street, but for the most part, they stayed inside as these few minutes passed.
A light thud brings the citadel back together, deleting the temporary street I made, and leaving everyone involved in this stunt far more confused as the Demonic Servants continue to explain the situation.
