Chereads / The Only Leveling System / Chapter 138 - Should've Done This Sooner...!

Chapter 138 - Should've Done This Sooner...!

'In my army, I want there too many varieties of races. Instead of sticking to just one race, I can combine races or even create something completely different than all the races out there.'

「Master, how are you going to create your own army and what type of soldiers are you thinking of creating?」

'Well... I can simply use my Shadow Creation skill. First, I need an army with human-like beings. That way, they can wield weapons and handle other things with their hands and feet. For example, skeletons. Though, I don't want an army of skeletons. I need something with a better body structure. Hm... I should make this simpler. Instead of having a body, I'll make it so my soldiers don't have a body at all.'

Rem started by creating one shadow soldier. She thought of how the shadow soldier would look like in her head. After about half an hour, she successfully created a shadow soldier she imagined in her mind.

{You Created A Shadow Armored Knight!}

The shadow soldier is around 6,5 feet tall and it only has armor on. The armor looked like ones professional knights you would in manga wear.

The armor and helmet can't be taken off. If you look inside the eye holes in the helmet, all you would see is darkness and jet black shadows since obviously, the shadow soldier is completely made of shadows.

'That took longer than I thought... Dang, I used up a third of my mana already. I should keep track of how much mana I use more carefully...!'

{Where did you get this idea from? Did you read too many fantasy books or what?}

'Do you have to complain about everything I do?' Rem asked, clearly annoyed.

{Tch.}

"I'll name you, Ridere. Your role shall be that of a commander." Rem announced.

Ridere kneeled in front of Rem, just like a knight would.

Rem inspected the shadow solider's stats.

[Name: Ridere]

[Role: Commander]

[Race: Shadow Armored Knight]

[Level: 1]

[HP: N/A]

[MP: N/A]

[Element: N/A]

Rem then checked all her shadow creations.

[Karasu]

[Ridere]

'This skill, Shadow Creation sure is useful.' Rem thought, satisfiyed.

She called Ridere back and in an instant, Ridere disappeared.

'For now, I'll start by creating a hundred soldiers who will be under Ridere's command.'

Rem sighed after thinking about how long it would take her to create a whole army by herself.

'Time to work.'

Rem began creating the shadow soldiers one by one.

...

Many hours passed and it was already almost midnight.

'Oh, shoot! I lost track of time!!! If they don't see me, they'll be worried...!'

Rem ran towards the inn, dodging everything in her way.

So far, Rem has created 78 Shadow Soldiers and one Shadow Armored Knight.

Every single Shadow Soldiers looks the same. They didn't look as stunning as the first one Rem created due to Rem rushing things.

It took Rem about 10 minutes to create a Shadow Soldier while the first one Rem created took her around 30 minutes.

All the Shadow Soldiers Rem created were nameless because one, there were too many of them, and two, it was meaningless to name all the Shadow Soldiers. In other words, it's time-consuming and useless.

Rem chose to only name the higher-positioned Shadows she created.

'Phew, I'm back.'

Rem entered the room through the opened window, but what happened next was unexpected to her.

"Surprise!!!" Alex, Izel, Chloe, and Samael yelled.

They waited for Rem to come back so they can celebrate together.

"What is this for?" Rem asked, seeing all the food on the table.

"You're leaving tomorrow morning with Samael. Chloe, Izel, and I went out to prepare all this for you guys..." Alex mumbled.

Instead of fighting with Samael, Alex seemed to be getting along with him. Nobody knew that the four made a temporary truce for this surprise to work.

'How nice...' Rem thought.

She didn't know what the warmth was, but she liked this feeling.

"Thanks." Rem smiled for a few seconds.

"D-Did I just see Rem laugh...?" Chloe stared at Rem with a shocked expression on.

"Our Lord... Smiled?"

Alex looked confused.

As usual, Izel was quiet and indifferent.

*Pfttt...

Everyone faced Izel, who they assumed, laughed. They were correct because they saw Izel giggling.

'What an odd day.'

"It's rare to see Rem smile and see Izel laugh like this! Let's begin celebrating!!!" Chloe said aloud happily.

The atmosphere was joyful and the feasting lasted for hours. Alex, Chloe, and Izel ended up falling asleep. In the end, Rem and Samael had to clean the mess.

"You guys are an energetic bunch," Samael stated, picking up all the trash on the floor.

"This is the first time we celebrated something together." Rem claimed as she helped pick up the garbage personally.

"I like it here..." Samael admitted.

"Too bad because we're leaving early once it's morning." Rem said, throwing the trash she collected in the garbage can.

"Yes, you're right." Samael smiled just a tiny bit.

He finished cleaning up the rest of the trash and they both started to sleep, getting ready for the next day.
