Dragon-Erend look at the Lycan who had just approached him and offered an interesting proposal.
Not that he immediately believed him. But, if that was true then it was quite an advantage for him.
"What do you say?" Dragon-Erend asked.
Grim had fixed on what he wanted to say and decided to look down without daring to look at Dragon-Erend directly.
He could feel his overwhelming strength before him.
Just to stand here, Grim needed quite a bit of effort.
If there was another choice, he would choose to flee and run. But he couldn't let his pack suffer the consequences.
So Grim turned to Dragon-Erend and offered cooperation.
His voice which he conveyed with his remaining Magic could only be heard by Dragon-Erend.
That voice sounded normal to a Dragon-Erend. But the members of his pack didn't hear anything he said.
Grim hoped Dragon-Erend wouldn't take it as a bad intention if he realized his Magic.
Dragon-Erend disables his Skill. A bluish light enveloped his towering body and dazzled the eyes of the Lycans.
Grim also had a hard time holding back the light. However, he tried his best not to fall.
A few moments later Erend had returned to his human form.
He returned to the form of a man with wounds on his face and arms.
The wound had been caused by Sigewulf's claw earlier.
Erend groaned looking at the wounds on his hands and a bit on his face.
He looked like he had just fought a huge stray dog ??or a crazy woman with long fingernails.
He was at a loss as to how to explain this to Billy if he asked when he got back.
But now Erend chose to focus on the figure of Lycan in front of him.
His size now far exceeded himself. But obedience is evident in the Lycan.
"You can change into human form, right?" Erend asked.
"Yes," answered Grim.
"Then change."
Grim complied and changed to his human form. He was now a tall slender man in animal skin clothing standing in front of Erend.
"What did you say just now?" Erend asked.
"We will serve you. So let us live."
Grim still looked down and didn't dare to look at Erend directly.
Even though right now the pressure of Magic when he had turned back into human form had disappeared as if she was no longer a threat.
But Grim knew that he could change at any moment and destroy him the second he tried anything.
"I don't know. You guys look like creatures that would betray me," Erend said.
"We know a lot more to not do that," Grim replied.
"Well, then I'll let you live."
Erend glanced at Grim then the Lycans behind him.
Some Lycans had already passed out. But some still stared at him with burning rage and obvious hostility.
However, Erend couldn't care less. He could kill them now but he didn't have to.
'Besides, I didn't have to kill them to complete the Daily Quest from the start. And if what these Lycans are offering is true, they can be quite useful allies.'
Grim tried to raise his eyes from the ground because he didn't hear any more words from Erend.
At that time Erend immediately said. "Swear that you will obey me as I say."
'Shit, I don't know what I'm talking about. Will that work?'
Erend himself was doubtful and unsure of that.
'At least I can order, or threaten them not to harm humans anymore.'
Grim found it very hard to say that oath. But now he couldn't fight back.
So he had to agree to it. At least until he figured out a way to make better decisions.
"I, the Alpha of this pack, swear on behalf of the Lycans in my pack to serve you."
Erend smiled at that. However, it turned out that the impact of the oath that Grim had uttered was more than just words.
A notification appeared before Erend's eyes.
[ You have got a new companion. ]
[ Grim and his pack of Lycans from the Snjar tribe has been added to the companion list. ]
[ They are now under oath with you and will obey your orders. ]
In addition to the notification that appears for Erend, Grim and the Lycans also get a sign when they have become Erend's Companions.
Grim and his pack of Lycans felt a strange energy coursing through their bodies.
Instinctively, they realized that now they had to obey Erend's orders.
The Lycans who had fainted had now revived. Those who were tired from the pressure now also felt that the pressure had disappeared.
'W-What is this?'
Grim stared at his palm and felt the difference in his heart.
He looked up to stare at Erend who was also seen widening his eyes staring at something in front of his eyes.
Whatever that thing was, he wasn't looking at Grim who was currently standing in front of him.
'Oh, it turned out like this.' Erend thought. 'They've become like Slimes.'
Then Erend grinned. 'This is something unexpected. I can use them to increase my power. At this rate, it's like I have a private army.'
Erend looked at the Lycans behind Grim. They were staring at him with confused wolf faces.
Erend nodded approvingly.
"Alright," Erend said to Grim. "So your name is Grim?"
Grim who was surprised to hear his name being called looked up. But he didn't question it because a creature like Erend would easily know his name.
"Yes," Grim answered.
"You have now sworn to obey my orders. I will give you the first order," Erend said.
Grim stared at him with eyes full of seriousness. 'If it's like this, I have to carry out the first order properly so that this Dragon thinks we are worth it to be allowed to live.'
"You guys guard this area and protect the town filled with humans from monster attacks. Do that until I contact you again," Erend said.
Grim didn't answer right away. That command sounded strange to Lycans who were a race of savage beasts.
Protect humans? If any other tribe or pack ser what they were doing, they would be humiliated.
"You understand?" Erend asked.
"Y-Yes."
"Good." Erend nod his head. "Now get out of here. Carry out my orders until I call again."
After that, Grim and the Lycans left in front of Raichi town.
[ Daily Quest Completed! ]
[ Reward: 800 Exp. ]

[ You leveled up! ]
