New Units and Training

When morning arrived and Theo woke up, Amethyst introduced herself and greeted him. With a nod from him, she informed him that the women had already left, as they didn't want to bother him anymore. After that, he washed himself, left his house, and approached the male players. Who were all tied up and being watched by some skeletons and also by Kornel, who made a point of staying there for any unforeseen event that might happen.

As soon as he approached, Kornel greeted him and said that nothing had happened and that he would now retire to sleep. Then he left, and Theo looked at the players and said seriously.

"You must know why you died now, so I'm not going to waste my time or saliva on it. I also don't want to hear any insincere excuses you might make up to try to keep your lives." He turned to one of the skeletons and asked for his sword.

With a sword in hand, he killed everyone without hesitation. Amethyst watched this with pride, and her devotion to her Lord increased greatly at that moment. Theo didn't know the reason at that moment, but he intended to understand it later, why Amethyst's loyalty, which was already 100%, increased when he killed players.

After killing them all, Theo made his recruitment for the day. The options he gained from killing players were.

[Spend 10 energy stones to create a basic skeleton without a profession (value for each body)]

[Spend 15 energy stones to create 2 thieving ghosts and one with no profession.]

[Spend 30 energy stones to create 5 killer ghosts that will be under Amethyst's command.]

Obviously, Theo chose to spend more but increase Amethyst's standing, causing her to begin her ascension to the Horde. Once he selected this option, he ordered Amethyst to stay in the mausoleum until the transformation of the bodies was finished and also explained that she would now begin her ascension.

Amethyst thanked her lord for this opportunity and said that she would never disappoint him from now on, any mission given to her would be completed, even if she had to sacrifice a part of her power to do so. Theo told her that she shouldn't overdo it and only do what was within her capabilities, he also ordered her to ask her companions for help whenever she encountered something she couldn't handle.

It would take 2 days according to the system, for everything to be ready, but Theo was in no rush. All he wanted was for one of his most loyal units and his main companion to have their strength increased without any problems. Furthermore, he had just summoned two new units and needed to check their abilities.

[Ghost]

[Level: 1 0/100]

[Skills: Possession, Haunt]

[Skeleton]

[Level: 1 0/100]

[Skills: Agility, Intelligence]

With these new skills, each new unit could be trained according to the skills they had when they appeared, for example, this skeleton unit could become a hunter or an assassin. And Theo would obviously choose the assassin option, as this would mean that his skeleton units that came later with similar abilities could be trained in a squad.

With this in mind, Theo ordered Alika to be responsible for teaching the skeleton how to move quickly and silently through the forest and also offering the same training to Izabel, but not forcing her to do so. He hadn't yet decided what role he would give her, but doing this type of training wouldn't hurt her, on the contrary, it would only help.

After that, he started his own training privately in the basement, now he was training with Copper. He ordered Copper to throw balls made of crushed leaves held together with a sap that served as glue that Alika found a few days ago. He would be blindfolded and try to dodge the balls, it was training to increase his perception and his sense of danger.

He had been looking for a method since what happened with Gael, and when Alika found this sap, the idea came to his mind. It was insane and exhausting training, but if it gave results, he wouldn't complain. Just as his units underwent improvements, gaining new abilities, he also needed to strengthen himself so as not to be just a dead weight that needed to be protected at all times.

Obviously he would have his escort, but he would not be dependent on her, if they had to separate, this could happen without any problems. That's how he wanted to be, a strong boss who inspires his servants and subordinates to be strong so they don't stop being useful.

The training continued until lunch when Alika returned to camp and not seeing Amethyst decided to call him. She was the only person who could enter the house if Amethyst was not available at the time, or outside the camp on a mission, this was an order from Theo to avoid any type of accident.

He had lost track of time while training with Copper and thanked Alika for coming to call him, he knew the others couldn't come here, and that was an issue too. Theo thought about ordering one of his skeletons to stay at the door and teach him some signs, so when Amethyst wasn't there, anyone could call him and make the signs for the skeleton.

Alika warned him that the training of both the skeleton unit and Izabel was giving quick results, as the two were able to see, understand and repeat what she taught in a few minutes. Making learning faster and more effective, she also said that if it continued like this it wouldn't be long before they could move on to combat training with Kornel.

This was great news for Theo, as his choice to stay with Izabel has not disappointed him in the slightest so far, she had already held a meeting with Amethyst where she suggested improving the formation of the patrol team. She also made many other suggestions on how to improve the security of the place, and Theo decided to accept almost all of them. Except for the one that included subordinates in the camp patrol, this would be done by the skeletons, who were tireless.
