Chapter 37: 33: Using the Card

While Alex was busy admiring his status page, Urim heard sounds from outside and looked in, only to spot Alex as elation flashed through his face. "Brother!" He said excitedly.

"Yo" Alex responded casually as he stood up. As if on cue Lovan and Dabok came in as well,

""congratulations My Chief"" They said in sync, genuinely happy by his progress. Alex looked at the bowing duo, amused 'Their wordings are getting smoother'.

As that thought flashed through his mind, he responded while approaching the throne,"Thank you".

It was then the fire place illuminated it's light on Alex fully, although half was covered in the shadows, every muscle on his torso was flowing from the light into the dark. He was like a living work of art, his green skin so tempting to touch; every move giving away his strength. His eyes were locked onto the light from outside as someone came in. Lovan edged closer until he could see his face, illuminated by the fire, serious like he'd never seen him before. this awakened him from his daze as the Atmosphere in the Hall changed, when He turned around, He saw the reason why.

Torrelsav had walked in!.

According to their Orcish nature, Alex might be feeling very territorial at this stage of evolution. the sight of someone at the same level as him might cause problems. Even Dabok let out a sigh at this moment. Earlier, He had told Torrelsav to wait for sometime before showing up but it looks like this fellow had other thoughts in mind.

He didn't change much but his hair grew out as well and his tusk became longer just like Alex's, His muscles became even more defined. Dressed in his black battle skirt he came in, Torrelsav wanted to see what kind of Orc Alex really was, now that Alex just completed an Evolution would be a very s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e moment, so his true nature would surface. But When He stepped into the Hall, He could feel sweat drench his skin, throbbing in his own eyes, ringing screams vibrating in his ears, and the thumping of his heart against my c.h.e.s.t. All this just from staring at those red glowing eyes that stared at him from behind that long hair. His fingers curled into a fist, nails digging into his green palm. He didn't even know that he had stopped breathing.

Alex simply stood there, staring at Torrelsav, not because of anything but he had found something interesting. He could smell his fear, just by standing there. It seemed to be one the perks of his evolution, He could smell it and he knew the Orc was afraid.

The silence in the room made the others shift uncomfortably.

Fear engulfed him for the first in many years, knocking all other thoughts aside. making it drastically exhausted.

"I see you evolved as well splendid" Alex spoke calmly, finally breaking the tensed atmosphere. Torrelsav as well felt like he had been brought back from his daze and responded quickly by going down on one knee, "Yes, My Chief!!"

Alex nodded,'That was dangerous, initially he had a strong impulse to attack Torrelsav, for some reason he felt it was a challenge but he quickly restrained such thoughts'.

While shaking his head, He sat on the Throne very slowly as he felt he might damage everything, He was having a hard time restraining his strength. Luckily he made it, He then chose to stop looking at Torrelsav for now and scanned the others.

Aside from Dabok, the other two were close to evolving as well. "What about the Blacksmith?".

"Everything is proceeding nicely" Dabok said with a toothy grin before bring a steel sword forward and showed it to Alex.

[Coyorn Steel sword]

Attack: 10-15

Durability: 100/100

Condition: Excellent

[Summary: A common short sword, it was made by the blacksmith Coyorn.]

After inspecting it Alex nodded, this was obviously better than the last batch, "How much has he made and how many more can we squeeze out of him?".

"Of this type?, he made ten...the rest are the same like the first ones. so..." Dabok paused and looked at Lovan with a look that said 'help me please!'.

Alex guessed that he must be having problems with the numbers that he thought them before so he helped," sixty?,"

"No...more than" He answered with an awkward grin.

"Alright that fair, i'll find the exact number later" Although Alex was saying this, His face was gloating as though saying 'you better go back and practice again before trying to show off'.

"Torrelsav, you and Dabok should take out the warriors again...the only Goblin village next to us, I want it...when you come back, I'll have your reward ready." He suddenly said, shocking the others except Urim who didn't seem bothered.

Torrelsav looked at Alex solemnly and thought 'This is a test' before responding, "Yes."

"Urim"

"Yes brother" Urim looked at Alex with sparkly eyes.

"You go too, I feel you're close to evolving as well" At Alex's words, they all turned to look at Urim curiously, trying to see or feel what Alex was talking about.

"Yes" Urim laughed excitedly, there is nothing but an impish glee on his face, the kind that feels like the icing on cakes and splashing in the sea. All it takes is for his thoughts to turn to the idea of being helpful to Alex and the excitement switch is well and truly on. It's as if there's always a trail of gunpowder in his veins and that was the only match, letting it spark, everything else didn't really matter.

Alex looked at his expression helplessly, He really didn't know what the original owner did for Urim but he wasn't complaining about having such a companion. After some conclusion, Alex dismissed them as he excitedly opened his new inventory.

He brought out the Random reward card(Rare) and chose to use it.

[Ding! Congratulations, you have received basic territorial platform (Aegis shield-Medium)]

Seeing it, He could only sigh. Luckily his wait wouldn't be that long, He just need to deal with the surrounding tribes.

With that, he turned to the option for his second sigil and began to wonder what to use this time.

The tiger tattoo gave him boost in strength and agility, what does he need now the most?.

No!

What then?

Perhaps, flexibility?...there were some techniques he couldn't perform due to the lack of enough flexibility. but it feels wasteful to use a whole sigil for just flexibility, what creatures had flexibility and could help with magic power or other aspects.

'all I have to do was imagine it and the system would analyze and distribute the attributes accordingly.'
