Chapter 15 (1/2)

Some important fixes,

I e, it was his race which evolved, not his class Changed to:

Race: Lich/Undead

Class:Wizard

Arachne changed to arachnids, seey and is a creature which is half hue spider

'My Lord, I can accept, but I have one condition'

'Name it, and I'll take it under consideration'

'Once one of h to replace ain'

I thought it would be alright to allow this small consideration, to avoid the threat of a rebellion in the near future Also, I was confident that with ed me she wouldn't be much of a threat

'Fine I accept, then about the alliance…'

'No need, I a to submit You have acceptedwholeheartedly'

I illing to discuss terly she submitted immediately

'Great, then ill you be sending your three children over?'

'They will arrive to the borders, that's why the forave us a certain amount of freedom'

'Are the boundaries of the territory marked by your spider webs?'

'Yes, e also continue to have the duty of watching borders?'

'Naturally'

'Thank you my Lord!'

'By the way, make sure not to feed on or capture anyht? Or else…'

'Absolutely, we are completely devoted to you my Lord!'

With a clap oftermites retreated into the distance

'I will leave now'

Bianca was still in a subround

'Now that this is taken care of, we'll be ready for the next step'

After a long walk through the forest, I arrived before the largest of the terood that all the termites I ht

'My Lord, I have been waiting'

Alpeon was the ent of the queens, it was the correct choice to entrust her with my tasks

'Alpeon, thank you for your hard work'

'Not at all my Lord, If I had known she would rebel I would have wiped them out earlier'

'Don't be so quick to choose confrontation, the current amicable situation is a better result for both'

'I will follow my Lord's instructions'

Stroking Alpeon's antennae, I found the large and shy queen quite adorable

'Toes, they must be treated with the utmost respect I will have a use for them someday '

'I shall follow your command'

I saw , despite being a Lich, h I had survived and had successive victories, luck had played a big role and I definitely had to improve my power

'Tell ation you mentioned last time'

'My Lord, they usually arrive in three distinct groups'

'Three groups?'

Alpeon paused to wipe it's antennabefore continuing our telepathic conversation

'Pardon my rudeness'

'Not at all, please continue what you were saying'

'Wise King, the future of the Jungle Pit is bright with my Lord at its helm'

Alpeon was considerably talented at ass-kissing, it was hard not to feel good from so much praise

'The roup are known as Lost Asmodians'

'Lost Asmodians?'

'They want to return to their ical homeworld and claim that somewhere within the Pit lies the key'

Nor the strongest in a fantasy game, but the fact that they had the word ”Lost” in their title meant they had a special history

'So what do you think we should do about their claim?'

'If you give the them to return to theirto offer another piece of land in exchange'

I expected their excuses to be a scam, what they really wanted were the endless benefits which the World's Roots nectar provided

'That doesn't make any sense'

'Yes, I agree'

'So, I guess they aren't looking for a diplomatic resolution?'

'You are very wise,caht between themselves, to pick a winner who he would then face in combat'

I alations, but a small tournament instead Still, it s that could overco

I had won h soon teeth were indispensable in breaking it's defenses

'What about the other 2 forces?'

'One of them are Elves who have lost their hometown'

'Elves?'

'Yes, they a sier ic'

Wasn't that a super co a beautiful elf? Well, of course that was no longer the case for me

'Hht, then are the elves weaker than the Asmodians?'

'The Asmodians have al the envoys It has been '

It seemed like the Asmodians were quite a force to be reckoned with, even more so than the elves

'What about the last group?'

'The final delegation aren't very strong but they are regarded as wicked beingsI a to because their representatives arealways changing, they call theue of Reincarnation'

Reincarnation? I felt they were same as me Maybe I wasn't the only one who had a previous life

Still, I responded to Alpeon in a calm manner

'I see, but what do you mean by wicked?'

'Those froe powers The previous King ainst the laws of the world'

The King would have been able to see the stats of all beings within the PitThe envoys who experienced reincarnationchecked their stats, he inning to forroup

'Thank you, actually there is onewhich I am curious about'

'Please do tell'

'Hoere the duels against the King, did the he win easily?'

'They were always incredibly vicious and close fights Still, the King mentioned that it was his duty to keep ownershi+p of this place, and he always kept that promise'

Such terrible news! If even the previous King struggled so much, hoould I fare in an open duel, where the use of tricks and terrain were limited

'Ok, thank you for the infor ?'

'According to er, but…'

'Well, what is it?'

It was strange for someone like Alpeon to hesitate It was her nature to always speak frankly, so if she was reluctant to speak, it '

'So unexpected has occurred'

'What's happened?'

'A few of theolden mutation across their bodies'

'Hmmm? So what's the problem?'

'Well, the children have becoer than before I orried that ry'

I let out an inner cheer, I definitely needed powerful es of those with strange mutations

'Mir, Tagan and Jenna, was it those three?'

'That's right'

'Well done, great work Alpeon You should raise theer portion of nectar, is that understood?'

'Thank you, so… you aren't angry?'
