Battle System: Golden Skeleton (Commander) has pledged to be your Ancillary (Accept/Reject).
The sudden Battle System's notification surprised him, but soon another Skeleton Commander with a rough voice knelt down.
"Please accept me as your subordinate too!!"
Battle System: Golden Skeleton (Commander) has pledged to be your Ancillary (Accept/Reject).
Randy didn't accept the pledges immediately as he let out a chuckle, "I have no reason for accepting you as my subordinate,"
In the first place, he was indeed had no reason to accept them as subordinate, after all, they were from a different race. They could even betray their own race, let along him, a human.
But he never thought that Shana gave him an answer as her voice rang in his head, "Uncle, they won't betray you if there's a notification from the Battle System. The system is omnipotent, if they have a thought to betray you, then the system would collect the Addendum Elixir from them for you,"
"So you could trust these skeletons. Instead, these skeletons are more trustworthy than your current guild members,"
Since he had Inflame Griffin as his Battle Partner, Shana never showed her face as long as the Inflame Griffin was in its Dimensional Home. She always played with Rocky there.
Hearing Shana's words, Randy's face shone. If what Shana told him was true, then he would gladly accept these skeletons as his subordinate.
The Skeleton Commander had their own soldiers, and he didn't need to worry about casualties of his guild member with the Skeleton Army as the vanguard.
The two Skeleton Commanders were fidgeting as they heard Randy's words.
"Sir… No, My Lord, we have a big use for you. First, we can lead you to the Enigma Kingdom's base. Second, you will have a huge skeleton army with us as your subordinate. Third, we will never and can't betray you or even a thought to betray you as long as you are alive,"
The Skeleton Commander with a child's voice gave an immediate response at Randy's words, and from his voice, he was a little panic as he explained the advantage of having them as subordinate.
But after five-ten seconds, they didn't hear Randy's response. The two looked each other, they thought Randy didn't believe their words.
"My Lord, what my friends said is right. We never and can't betray you, even thought of betrayal will lead us to our death. The main reason for this is the system you have, as long as you are alive we could never betray you,"
The Skeleton Commander with a rough voice gave further explanation, hoping Randy would believe them.
Randy didn't answer them, but he accepted them as his subordinate through the Battle System after the Skeleton Commander with a child's voice finished his words.
However, the two skeletons didn't realize Randy had accepted them as his subordinate as they didn't have system notification. They were in a panic as the two alternately explained about the advantage of having them as subordinate
Randy didn't give a response as he busied himself checking the new option after he accepted the two skeletons as his subordinate.
Soon, there was a new option added into Battle Partner option.
Randy entered the Battle Partner option and there was a new option there beside Pet, it was Ancillary. He entered Ancillary option and appeared two texts there.
----------------------
[(Name) - Gold Skeleton] (Commander)
[(Name) - Gold Skeleton] (Commander)
----------------------
Randy didn't hear the two as he looked at the interface of Ancillary. After some time, Randy set his eyes on the two skeletons and the two had their mouth shut.
"All right, I will accept you as my subordinate. From now on your name is Kiddo," Randy pointed his finger at the Skeleton Commanders with a child's voice.
Because this Skeleton Commander had a child's voice, Randy named him Kiddo. After that, Randy turned his head to the Skeleton Commander with a rough voice, thinking what name he should give after him.
After some time, Randy had an idea and said with a satisfied smile, "From now on, I will call you Rougher,"
The same as Kiddo, Randy named after Rougher based on his voice. After this, Randy had more force for his Happy Conquest.
But the two Skeleton Commanders had no right to complain about their name as they knelt down at Randy and said simultaneously, "Yes, My Lord!"
Along with the Skeleton Commander's response, the Battle System rang once again.
Ding!
Battle System: Ancillary has been updated!
----------------------
[Kiddo - Gold Skeleton] (Commander)
[Rougher - Gold Skeleton] (Commander)
----------------------
Afterward, the two Skeleton Commanders stood right in the front of him. Randy could discern there was something they wanted to tell him but hesitated as their jaw opened and closed for a few times.
"What's up?" Randy asked.
The two fell silent for a while before finally, Rougher mustered up his courage to speak,
"My Lord, can you ask your friend to stop, we can use the skeleton army as your vanguard rather than being slaughtered like that,"
Rougher seemed speaking in a bitter tone as he witnessed his subordinate being slaughtered with Zhen Yi and Garuda's members, but he tried to conceal it lest his new Lord discontent about him.
After hearing those words from Rougher, Randy looked back. Sure enough, about 1 mile away from him, he saw Garuda's members were slaughtering the skeleton army as the pile of bones scattered around them.
Randy let out a small laugh before sending a message to his wife to retreat. Just after he sent the message to his wife, he received a message from Long Xinya.
"We meet an army of the skeleton, any order?"
The content of the message was simple.
Randy replied, "Smash them! Also, if you meet King Grade Undead…"
His reply contained about Addendum Elixir, telling her to not forget to pick the elixir after killing the King Grade Undead.
Less than 20 seconds, Randy received Long Xinya's reply, "Roger~,"
…
20 minutes later…
Zhen Yi along with Garuda's members back to Randy followed by the skeleton army. But because there were two Skeleton Commanders, the skeleton army stopped.
"Honey, what's wrong? There are still many skeletons here…"
Zhen Yi had not finished her words, but she looked at the two Skeleton Commanders who was stopping the skeleton army. Her eyes were shining in excited light as she saw the Skeleton Commanders.
"Two King Grade Undead!" Zhen Yi exclaimed and her fighting spirit reached the max, "Leave them for me,"
But Randy stopped her and misunderstand Randy's intention, "What? You want to get your hands at them too?"
Randy speechless at her wife's remark, but his wife took his silence as a yes.
"All right then, lets we compete who will get those two King Grade Undead," Zhen Yi proposed, and she was getting ready to launch her attack at the two Skeleton Commanders.
Randy shook his head at his valiant wife, "It's not this, listen to me first…"
Afterward, Randy explained about Ancillary to her wife, telling her the two Skeleton Commanders were his subordinate and telling her about the Legendary Undead and Mythical Grade Undead.
"There's such a thing?" Zhen Yi mumbled as she was a little disappointed.
But after hearing there was Legendary Grade Undead and Mythical Grade Undead, Zhen Yi's eyes shone, full of fighting spirit as she could fight against the Legendary Grade Undead and Mythical Grade Undead.
"What are we waiting for? Let's smash them!!" Zhen Yi urged.
But just as the two were talking, Kiddo approached. Even though Kiddo and Rougher were wearing the same armor and the same appearance, but it was quite easy to differentiate between them. Kiddo had twin swords as his weapon while Rougher had a huge ax as his weapon.
"My Lord, there's a problem!" Kiddo knelt down as he reported accompanied with a "ktak ktak ktak" sound.
Randy was not used with about them calling him My Lord, let alone the kneeling ceremony. It was a bit awkward for him as he came from the modern world, not like the Crimson Cloud Kingdom who still used kingdom system.
"Next time, there's no need to kneel each time you meet me," Randy beckoned Kiddo to get up, but Kiddo wanted to talk, but Randy cut it off.
"What problem?"
Kiddo could only comply at Randy's request and directly reported the problem, "My Lord, we encounter some problem with the skeleton army, half of them is Skeleton Knight's men so they won't listen to us to follow under your command,"
"Oh,"
'Oh!?' Kiddo puzzled at Randy's reaction. Somehow, he wanted to flatter his new Lord, but he could not read his new Lord's mood, so he just motionlessly waited for his new Lord's order in silence.
"It's easy to solve," Randy looked at his valiant wife. With one glance, Zhen Yi understood what her husband's means.
"Order your men back, let my friend swept those skeletons,"
Kiddo immediately carried out Randy's order without delay and Garuda's members under Zhen Yi's lead continued harvesting the exp from skeleton army.
