In the vast lands of the nether realm, a white fox casually flew in the sky, its pure cream white fur a bright contrast to the valley of black rocks that they were passing by right now.
The fox was in a particularly happy mood, and so was the person lying peacefully on its back.
"Hmmm? What did those two do? Did they perhaps overdo it?" Liam grinned in amusement as he looked at the last message from Abraki.
[Bro, you are God! Congratulations! The whole world wants to join your guild!]
He chuckled lightly and then closed the interface.
In reality, as soon as he started the guild, he already knew that these sorts of problems would begin to crop up from the woodwork.
Until they established themselves as a legitimate guild with a strong base, these issues would not be easy to root out and continue to emerge.
Liam knew about these things as he had already seen several guilds rise and fall with the tides of time.
It was still a long way for their guild to shape up, if at all.
Just as he was thinking about this…
"Hmmm…?" Liam suddenly stiffened and sat up. "Luna, slow down. Stop here."
In front of him, between two huge rocks, there was a small group of creatures.
They had long pointed ears and huge feet and hands with a thin body frame.
They looked like goblins and were thin and short but their features were different from that of a goblin.
"Imps?" Liam narrowed his gaze and observed the group carefully.
[Demonic Imp; Level 13]
[Demonic Imp; Level 14]
[Demonic Imp; Level 10]
…
…
…
…
Without any exception, all the creatures in front of him were lower-level imps.
Liam was already familiar with these creatures and was also very interested in them.
This was because, unlike the other demons he had come across so far, these imps belonged to a pure demon breed.
They were not a beast hybrid like most demons, and their bloodlines were probably not contaminated.
More importantly, just like the lesser dryads, these imps were also able to cast fire magic.
Ever since he forged the souls of the lesser dryads, Liam had been wanting to forge another similar creature and hone his skill.
So, these imps were just what he needed to train!
Liam looked at the imps and then back at Luna. If they landed right now, he probably wouldn't be able to use all of them.
So he decided to follow the little fox's technique.
"Luna, head to the village we just crossed a while back. Do it fast."
Kyuuuu!
The fox bobbed her head and then zoomed to the location in a jiffy.
Liam quickly hopped off from her outside the village and went in all by himself.
He then returned back in a couple of minutes and in his hand, there was a huge cage.
Who was this cage for? The white fox cocked her head and looked at him curiously.
Liam grinned. "You have some work to do."
A few minutes later, the duo was back in the same valley. Liam jumped to the ground and Luna dashed ahead to take care of business.
Within seconds, the group of imps was banged up, shoved in the cage, and brought back with only a gift wrap missing.
"Good girl." Liam smiled and patted her head.
He then sat down to start his work.
Now that he had the guild matters somewhat sorted out, at least momentarily, he wanted to focus on the most important task at hand.
Liam knew that he would only be a fool if he delayed his progress any more even after knowing the self-regenerative property and growth potential of his soul undead.
He needed to focus on forging. He simply needed to forge more and then some more.
Quality, quantity, type, he had so much to experiment with and improve.
And because they had the ability to grow with him, the sooner he achieved this, the better it was for unlocking their full strength.
In fact, he did not have any time to waste.
"Come out," Liam murmured, and his small army of soul undeads instantly emerged.
There were chickens, rabbits, wolves, bears, and dryads.
