51 Birth of an Army of Spirits (1/2)
Seeing Niko's strange look Ivanic felt a strange chill behind his back. The grin on Niko's face showed a crazed determination, which would make anyone feel peculiar around him.
Noticing Ivanic staring at him confused Niko spoke, ”As you can see we are now in a ”clan” together which is something I received after taking over this territory...”
Listening, Ivanic nodded and Niko continued.
”... In fact, try and open up your interface, there might be new things there.” Niko said, looking at Ivanic various facial expressions.
Awe and excitement flashed in his eyes, then a sudden dark look took over his face.
”What are your thoughts?” Niko asked seriously.
”Our clan have its own quite huge territory, however, people are greedy, especially those without one. They will eye this place and try to take it” Ivanic spoke.
Niko nodded and replied, ”Indeed, but we aren't at a complete disadvantage. This whole territory for ourselves means we can hunt and level up easier without competition or fear of backstabbers.”
Ivanic nodded, ”True, but if that's the case we better be quick. The other territories will not sit idle for long, I'm guessing they will send someone to scout us very soon.”
Wondering, Niko agreed as he wondered to himself, 'Right. We need to be fast. People are greedy and until worthy ones are found, my spirits are all I need, as they will not backstab me.'
Ivanic who looked at Niko thinking asked, ”By the way, how many spirits can you summon at this point?”
”Hmm… I have five so far, and can probably get a little over five more. But as we level that number will increase drastically.” Niko replied as he looks around at the dead rattans and continues, ”Ivanic, can you explore the castle a little bit more? I will take the spirits of these rattans, and afterward, we can explore the forest around the castle and grind some levels out.”
Ivanic nodded as he agreed and moved on farther into the castle.
Looking around Niko knew exactly where to start, and that was the Wise Rat in front of him.
[Spirit King's Order]!
The aura that surrounded his body began to fluctuate and connect with the body of the wise rat's body, and then suddenly, a spirit Identical to the wise rat was erected.
The spirit of the rat was so identical that it even possessed the same staff that Niko had taken. This caused Niko to wonder about items and how connected to monsters they are.
Coming closer to the wise rat, Niko's eyes widened. The rat turned his head slightly as it looked towards Niko with a confused expression.
Seeing this Niko was in utter awe. If this rat could react this way this meant… Intelligence! Usually, spirits would stare blankly towards the void, without a single bit of expression.
