He had only been tolerating her actions for the sake of the other person close to her.
After having delved into the nether realm, at least to the extent that he had, he knew one thing for sure.
It was that SSS-affinity to any element was not a joke! It could mean the difference between a powerhouse and a mediocre player!
With that being the case, he couldn’t bring himself to let go of a precious ally like Mia, especially when she had the affinity to the element he was probably weakest against.
This was the one and the only reason why he had been patient all this while.
Not to mention, when the woman stopped talking, she could also be a big asset. Alex’s combat skills were not a joke.
Perhaps if he actually managed to rescue her this time around, like a typical damsel in distress rescued by the heroic prince… she might soften up? Just a tad it?
Liam chuckled helplessly, shaking his head at this thought. “I must be tired. I am thinking of impossible things!”
He let out a deep breath and the look of seriousness returned to his face.
He already decided to rescue this hot-headed damsel.
So even if he did not feel any pity for her, he was going to do the task properly and not half-ass it and the best way to go about it was…
“Come out,” Liam muttered.
And the next second, his small personal army of chickens and rabbits appeared in front of him.
He had lost about 10 of them in the battle and there were still 20 remaining, 13 chickens and 7 rabbits to be more precise.
Apparently, these weaker soul-forged pets were only able to last for a while especially when they took a lot of damage.
In this aspect, they were very much similar to a live pet. They also had a specific ‘health’ and an ability to withstand damage.
After that their soul strength shrunk into the soul bead from which they were originally forged.
When this soul bead rested for a while and gathered mana again, the soul pet was able to materialize again but… not always.
After a couple of deaths, the soul bead was simply not able to handle the process and everything disintegrated completely, thus permanently losing the follower.
Liam already thought about this problem and he also thought up a dozen ways to stabilize this soul bead more and forge stronger followers, but all that had to wait.
For now, he wanted to quickly finish this Kingdom quest and claim the rewards before deciphering the next plan of action.
He coldly gazed at his small troop of ghosts, all of them emotionless and blank, and commanded.
“Attention everyone! Team C and Team R, you guys are all on search duty! Go forth and search these lands without leaving any stone unturned.”
Even though the words coming out of his mouth sounded cool, Liam knew that the truth was far from it.
He smiled wryly looking at the undead fauna and gave more specific directions to his small not so cute followers.
“Team C go left.”
“Team R go right.”
“I will take the center.”
“Always remain within 50 feet radius from me and keep a low profile. Don’t start any fights with other beasts or monsters.”
Liam spelled things out as best as he could and then the search began.
He watched the bunnies and the chickens scrambling about and the sight was…
“I really need to create some stronger undead followers.”
