Ding – Servants added – Von, Vok, Lightfang, Demonpaw

–Choose and share your abilities now?

…What? Wait wait wait, hold on for a second, all this information pops up out of nowhere, let me have a better look at it before anything else alright?

I a.n.a.lyze my status and the only skils that were changed that could have led to this situation, a.s.serting it more thoroughly. 

The Wise Leader- t.i.tle modified from The Wise. Only gained when those under your leaders.h.i.+p trust and respect you. It may be altered by how you act with your subjects and how they see you.

Uhm… Interesting. There are some t.i.tles that are merely stating the facts, like gaining the t.i.tle of savior after saiving a lot of creatures, so that small change in nomenclature did not alter much practically speaking. 

So the cause of all this must be the next one:

King of Hounds- Only hound may be added to your servant list and be under your command, and only those that directly pleaded under your name will be affected by this ability and experience sharing. 

Ability sharing: you may choose two abilities to share with each servant, and those will always have the same level as yours, the "King". 

Experience sharing: only crystal experience will be divided. While consuming crystals from magical creatures or any source of outer magic input, the t.i.tleholder "King" will have to choose if he shares or not half of the experience earned with its servants, being able to divide that 50% between them, and only receiving the other 50% for himself.

Restrains: If betrayed by their servants, those will lose all abilities and experience gained by this mean, plus receive the t.i.tle of Betrayer, which will make them unable to cooperate and work in groups/packs anymore since none will trust them, as well as not being able to enter a sharing ability similar to this anymore. Same goes if the creature who pleas alliance is already holder of this t.i.tle, they won"t be able to become the "King" servant.

That"s quite the ability there, so I can make them, "my servants", evolve with me? Plus giving them my abilities in my own level would make a huge difference in battle since my abilities are quite high-level ones.

However I wouldn"t be able to share my favorites and strongest one; in my not humble opinion; since they were from the Shadow Element which none of these doggy brains kept.

Or so I thought.

"How cold, love, are you leaving without me?"

A shadow jumps down behind the group, not trying to hide her body as she simple walks as if owning the place towards us, swinging her tail sideways as she slowly walks with an att.i.tude, eyes glazing at us at the front.

"That was the idea Swiftpaw." Says Lightfang, the red female, with a hint of a growl on her words as she looks back at the newcomer, making me realize that I recognize them by name now without being even introduced to; probably some weird effect of the t.i.tle for sure.


The newcomer had dark long fur with some red strips here and there, but her physical looked more like a wolf than a dog, with a wild appearance that was improved by the many scars present on her body and snout.

"Ouch, that hurts love. But I know you don"t mean it so I"ll let it slide."At that she stops in front of us, snarling to my side as she says, staring me down and narrowing her eyes. "And who is this one?" 

Oh no you don"t, don"t come putting the blade on my alright? I"m just a pa.s.serby!

I check her very quickly, and I"m surprised not only for her to have Shadow element on her, but because her level was the highest one of them all, level 70!

Oh ho! Things may start to get a little interesting here…

And I love to put more wood on the fire, especially when someone is trying to overcome me like this, arrogantly.

"Me? I"m their King, they are now going on a journey with me. Got a problem with that?" She gives me a full fang smile that screams deadly fangs for all to see.

"Oh I have. You won"t take what is mine!" She screams and her eyes s.h.i.+ne red, making me realize that I may have made fun of a not so nice subject, not that I would have it done any other way.

She dashes forward, but on the contrary of the other hounds she seems to know her way in battle, strong muscles bulging under the fur, exploding into a shadow misty figure that could have come from a nightmare or a foggy night.

 Pity that her adversary was me.

And I was out of time to play with her.

I use my Shadow to overcome my small stump tail as it grows momentary into my long gone whip tail, making me able to use my Tail Whip at her so she would step back where I wanted her.

Sorry hon, is just that our level difference is way too high for you to have even the smallest chance of scratching me.

The next moment that her paws touch the floor the shadow seems to glue her to the floor, sticking her as my tentacles roll around like snakes and up her legs, binding her.

She tries to break free, pulling and biting, but what can you do when it is shadows that are locking you in place? And between my command and hers, it was very clear who the shadow would follow.

I approach, seeing the others look while Lightfang has an apprehensive look on her face; it seems like some cared after all; when I stop right in front of the wolf-hound, silencing looking at her and, in a few seconds, showing who was in command here.

"I do not have time for your pity brawl wolf-hound. Her choice was made, now do not get in our way." I add a hoa.r.s.e tone to my voice so that my words would sound very clear, but she doesn"t back off even after being bonded in mere seconds after starting the fight.

"To the h.e.l.l with you! King my a.s.s! Give her back! Lightfang, don"t worry, I"ll save you!" She says between biting the tentacles, who only hardened their grips.

"Oi, why are you portraying me as the villain here? Have you considered that maybe she wants to go with us uhm?"

"Liar! She would never submit to you! Right Lightfang?" At that she looks at the other hound, waiting for her answer, but the red female just looks away.

"Is none of your business." She answers while looking away.

The wolf-hound seems shocked, but then she stares at me as if about to blame me again when I release her, almost making her trip for how sudden it was.

"I really don"t have time for this." I say annoyed, and quickly add to all: "Seems like you are now my servants, and as such I can share with each one of you two abilities of mine as well as in the same level that I have them. Since we don"t have time now I"ll choose them later, but please think about what you want to have so we can talk later. As for you. "I say back to the wolf-hound. " They chose to follow me to get out of here and get stronger, and I do not intend to make it easy for them, so if you are here only to make things troublesome for me than leave, if not than stay quiet and follow us." 

Without giving them time to answer I trot forward, having the two younger ones trip once more when they try to follow too quickly.

What"s up with those two big pups? I roll my eyes at them.

Never thought that mere walking could be so difficult to some…

Oh wait, I have a dumb brother, never mind, I believe, I truly believe in the capability of the clumsy ones!

Sigh…

Feeling more and more like an old man for sighing this much… Just hope that I don"t lose any fur because of these hounds.

Because I would look ugly as h.e.l.l.
