lv 1 skeleton

chapter 15

Some important fixes,

I misinterpreted Chompy's status page, it was his race which evolved, not his class. Changed to:
Race: Lich/Undead
Class:Wizard
Arachne changed to arachnids, seems like Arachne is from Greek mythoLogy and is a creature which is half human/spider(Woops!). Not the case, Bianca is just a large spider.
'My Lord, I can accept, but I have one condition.'

'Name it, and I'll take it under consideration.'

'Once one of my three unique children grow strong enough to replace me, allow me to challenge you once again.'

I thought it would be alright to allow this small consideration, to avoid the threat of a rebellion in the near future. Also, I was confident that with my current growth rate, by the time Bianca challenged me she wouldn't be much of a threat.

'Fine I accept, then about the alliance....'

'No need, I am willing to submit. You have accepted my condition, so I will serve the new King wholeheartedly.'

I was willing to discuss terms of the alliance, but surprisingly she submitted immediately.

'Great, then when will you be sending your three children over?'

'They will arrive tomorrow. Also, we are very good at guarding the borders, that's why the former King also gave us a certain amount of freedom.'

'Are the boundaries of the territory marked by your spider webs?'

'Yes, will we also continue to have the duty of watching borders?'

'Naturally'

'Thank you my Lord!'

'By the way, make sure not to feed on or capture anymore of my minions alright? Or else....'

'Absolutely, we are completely devoted to you my Lord!'

With a clap of my hands, the flying termites retreated into the distance.

'I will leave now.'

Bianca was still in a submissive posture with her head to the ground.

'Now that this is taken care of, we'll be ready for the next step.'

After a long walk through the forest, I arrived before the largest of the termite mounds. It felt good that all the termites I met, prostrated themselves to the floor until I was out of sight.

'My Lord, I have been waiting.'

Alpeon was the most hardworking and intelligent of the queens, it was the correct choice to entrust her with my tasks.

'Alpeon, thank you for your hard work.'

'Not at all my Lord, If I had known she would rebel I would have wiped them out earlier.'

'Don't be so quick to choose confrontation, the current amicable situation is a better result for both.'

'I will follow my Lord's instructions.'

Stroking Alpeon's antennae, I found the large and shy queen quite adorable.

'Tomorrow three spiders will arrive. Although they are hostages, they must be treated with the utmost respect. I will have a use for them someday. '

'I shall follow your command.'

I saw my reflection in Alpeon's large eyes. I didn't feel strong, despite being a Lich, my magic powers were still too weak. Although I had survived and had successive victories, luck had played a big role and I definitely had to improve my power.
