Liam's mind buzzed with excitement and anticipation as he gazed at the expanded potential of his army and his newfound powers.
He summoned the rest of his slimes to stand before him without hesitation.
With a wave of his hand, the remaining 90 slimes materialized in front of him, each taking on the magnificent form of a draconic slime.
The amount of mana consumed was negligible as he gazed forward excitedly toward his newly summoned slimes.
Their appearance was breathtaking, their dragon-like features radiating power and strength.
The sight of them left Liam feeling a surge of pride and satisfaction.
"This feeling of having powerful troops... "
Liam muttered in a deep voice. His eyes gleamed at this thought as he scanned the imposing manner of his slime's current form.
"No wonder those top-ranked Lords would always have this arrogant vibe whenever they spoke within the global chat. Power changes people, and I am not an exception to this."
As the slimes stood before him, Liam noticed a sense of awe and reverence in their eyes.
They seemed to understand the significance of their transformation and the power they now possessed.
"Now"
Liam commanded, his voice echoing across the chamber.
"I task you with a new mission. Go forth and clear the bandits surrounding our territory. Show the world the might of the Dragon Lord!"
Liam ordered in a domineering voice, and suddenly, he realized something and added.
"And also the might of the human lord."
Hearing his orders.
The slimes nodded in understanding, their determination evident in every movement.
With a collective roar, they slowly moved in order towards the throne room exits.
But before they were about to exit the place, Liam suddenly added another set of orders.
"Ah, yes. Morph into knight form first before leaving. I will send you the mental picture within your mind."
The slimes stopped in their movement for a second as they glanced at each other in confusion and doubt. However, they quickly adapted to it and obeyed the order silently without saying anything.
Morphing into a formation resembling knights, their slimy bodies shifting and solidifying into armor-clad warriors. Standing tall and proud of over 3 meters tall. Afterward, they saluted the lord and left swaggeringly in a mighty manner.
As the knights swaggered out of the throne room, Liam couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction at their imposing presence.
Outside the castle, the people went about their activities when they caught sight of the approaching knights. In an instant, all the people went voiceless as they hurriedly retreated to the side, fearing that any of these giant knights might accidentally stumble onto them.
"So many Knights! Just where did Lord Liam hide them? I've never seen them before around the territory."
"Hush. They might have just returned from an expedition. And after reporting, the Lord might have given them another task to complete beyond the bubble."
"Hiss, what kind of task are they going to perform? "
"With their sizes and strength, the enemy they face must be equally powerful."
Equally stunned by the spectacle, the villagers gathered around, murmuring excitedly.
Some pointed and gasped, while others simply stood in silent amazement.
"It's incredible,"
One of the people exclaimed, shaking his head in disbelief.
"I never thought I'd live to see the day when so many powerful knights are gathered together in an area."
"Yes, that's true. In our world, each knight is a ceiling combat power capable of overturning an army independently."
Another villager nodded in agreement.
"Truly, our Lord's power knows no bounds."
"He's like a force of nature."
Meanwhile, Adhart watched in awe as the knights marched past him, their armor gleaming in the sunlight.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride, knowing he lived in the same territory as such a powerful Lord.
As the knights disappeared from view, the villagers continued to talk excitedly amongst themselves, their minds filled with wonder at the incredible display they had just witnessed.
And amidst it all, Adhart couldn't shake the feeling that something extraordinary was happening in their small corner of the world.
Liam naturally noticed all of this since he was the one who deliberately directed where the slimes needed to exit from the territory.
Being a lord is not only about providing. It also involves the context of awe and respect from the people. He was trying to brush his sense of existence by giving them a certain understanding of the territory's strength.
With strength comes the respect that a person deserves.
Shaking these thoughts away, Liam then focused on the current global chat. There was a heated discussion ongoing. And the topic of it was not surprisingly enough revolving around him.
Seeing the chat, a smile was plastered on Liam's face, and he muttered.
"So this is how it feels like to receive the spotlight, it's quite amazing... "
[Global chat]
[Lord Arlithat'sme]: Who is this Lord Liam that suddenly appeared on the ranking board? If anyone knows who he is, I am willing to pay a certain amount of resources for this information. I want to hug the big boss's thigh as soon as possible when the alliance feature is unlocked.
[Lord caster110]: Holy 170 thousand in power, he completely dominated the ranking board. The second place barely has over 50 thousand power so far. Big boss, let me hug you!
[Lady Rose]: Can you guys stop being perverted for one second?
[Lord HAHAHHAHA]: Stop acting like you won't do the same if given the chance. All of us are perverts deep within.
[Lord Fearme]: The guy upstairs, it's just you. We are not perverts,
[Lord HAHAHHAHA]: we all are sinful, REPENT!
[Lady INEEDRESOURCES]: Is he on drugs? Are there drugs in this world?
Reading the chat, Liam's smile froze to a halt, and he sighed.
"How did the conversation get to this?"
Afterwards, Liam then opened the Ranking panel to see his name on it.
