Level: 742

Skill: ???

------------------

There was a noticeable distinction between the normal Monikia he met compared to these two Monikias, it was the mustache.

Yes, Randy called it mustache as the fur above their mouth was much denser compared to the other Monikia. Actually, there were many Monikias wanted to accompany their chief, but Marlin opposed and asked them to stay outside.

Murin and Kurin were supporting Marlin as he was having a hard time to walk. However, when Marlin entered the circular house, he broke free from the two Elders and approached Randy with a serious look.

Just as Randy wanted to stand up, Marlin sat directly before him. Randy was sitting on the floor with a soft fur as the cushion and a small table. The peaches and the wine were on the table.

”Chief!”

Kurin and Murin shouted at the same time. They wanted to prevent Marlin, but Marlin stopped them with a wave of his hand.

Marlin took a deep breath, and a determination flashed in his eyes as he looked at Randy.

”Would you like to listen to my words?”

Randy smiled as he nodded his head.

There's no need to guess for what happened next. Randy listened to Marlin's word per words with great detail. Marlin was telling him the Monikia Tribe condition.

He was telling Randy that they got chosen by the God Beast and got its blessing. Marlin was telling him about their origin. Even though they got the blessing and the power from the God Beast, but they didn't want to get involved the prolonged war.

They just wanted their tribe to ascend to the next world, The Ascension World. They didn't want to become the strongest or thirst of the reign of land, they just wanted to main the survival of their tribe until they ascended to the Ascension World because they were scarce.

Randy had an unbelievable look as he heard Marlin's words. They had the power, but they didn't have the ambition to rule over the world as others did.

Even though Randy could not discern what Marlin told him was the truth or not, but Marlin looked sincere as he explained their situation. Also, as Marlin went on, Randy could not help smiling. But of course he didn't show it on his face, he smiled inside his heart.

The more Randy heard Marlin's words, the more he was confident to acquire the Monikia Tribe under Happy Guild. After half an hour lengthy explanation, Marlin stopped and chugged the wine in his hand in one go.

Marlin took another a deep breath.

”And, after experiencing your strength. I, Marlin, The Chief of Monikia Tribe, representing my tribe to swear to become your Ancillary,”

Marin said it with a deep voice and seriousness.

The atmosphere turned into a solemn and quiet. They could only hear their breathing sound as everyone inside the circular house turned their head at Randy. Kurin and Murin seemed not surprised and seemed to know their chief would say these words out.

However, Randy stayed silent. But Randy's eyes were on Marlin, emotionless. No one knew what Randy's thought, they could not read it.

The atmosphere stayed still for half a minute before Randy broke into a smile. He was smiling brightly as he got a treasure into his hand.

Randy stretched out his right hand out to Marlin, ”Welcome to Happy Guild!”

Marlin had a puzzled look on his face at first. He looked at Randy's hand and Randy's face back and forth, puzzling what the meaning behind Randy's hand.

Randy understood the monkey before him didn't understand what he meant. Randy scratched his head with his left hand, ”This is…”

”But I have one condition for my tribe!”
