World System Among Gods novel Chapter 7

"If that's the case, call the subordinates right now."

“Summoning a subordinate.”

A portal appeared in front of Ares. Then, not long after, a figure seemed directly kneeling in front of him.

"Ashur is ready to take orders from you, sir," said the figure of a man still kneeling in front of Ares.

Not answering anything immediately, Ares is still astonishing at Ashur’s level. He said in his heart,

"Level 2,200, what's with his level? He's so much stronger than me."

“Master, there is no need to worry. As I said, the loyalty of the master's subordinates is absolute. Even if he is stronger, he will never betray.”

Ares nodded his head. "Ashur, wake up now, and you don't need to call me master. Just call me by my name."

"Sorry, sir, that's too presumptuous. Forever you will be my master, and I’m Ashur, will not dare to call your name directly," He said that and got up.

Facing the stubborn attitude of the subordinates, Ares could only surrender and follow his will. After all, he doesn’t lose at all.

"Ashur, come with me! We have something to do in the town," without waiting for an answer, Ares immediately shot back to Avalon City with Ashur following behind him.

***

Early morning, five kilometers south of Avalon City. Several security officers on patrol found thousands of corpses of wild beasts still relatively fresh in flesh wounds. Most beast corpses died with severe injuries, and hundreds were killed after their heads were beheaded.

“There are 20 level 500 beasts and nearly two hundred beasts with over 300 levels. With only them attacking the City, we will be wiped out. Look over there; there are even thousands of other beasts,” said one of the guards of Avalon City.

"At least we'll be wiped out in a matter of minutes," another city guard said.

"They are indeed strong, but they have been wiped out, and Avalon City is temporarily spared from destruction. But now the problem is who killed them? And on which side is it?" said the leader of the City guards, who is standing so bravely on the pile of beast corpses about to be burned.

Especially for beasts with levels above two hundred, their bodies would be brought to the City. Consuming the flesh of beasts over level 200 would at least slightly increase the experience of whoever ate it.

"Hopefully, he or she will be on our City's side," said the guard soldier standing beside the leader from the start.

If only Ares saw the face of the leader of the City guard soldiers. He will instantly recognize their faces. The leader of the City guard soldiers is one of the three people he has met.

While in the forest, there was confusion and worry; in a building abandoned for a long time, a young man and an adult man were seen enjoying grilled meat that was still smoking. Ares and Ashur are enjoying breakfast with rabbit meat that Ashur had caught.

[Main mission unlocked]

[After reaching level 200, the main missions will be unlocked one by one.]

[Mission to form territory]

[It is hoped that the master will form a village, and the master will be the leader]

[Requirements for the formation of a village]

"Five level 300 people, against ten yellow fur wolves, each of which is a level above 500. Those five will die soon," Ares muttered as Ashur could hear.

"Don't you want to help them, sir?"

"Sure, I'll help them, but I’m still waiting for the right time," he smirked while Ashur was confused by his master's words.

"Sir, soon they will meet the guardian of the dead realm. I think now is a good time to help them."

"A moment like this is what I'm currently waiting for."

In the twinkling of an eye, Ares shoots toward the two yellow-haired wolves about to pounce on one of the five people who fight them.

"Sring... Sring… Bugh… Bugh..." Two slashes of Ares’ sword managed to cut off the yellow-furred wolf's head.

In the next instant, at a speed that the eye could not follow, Ares slaughtered all the remaining yellow-haired wolves. Experience flowed from the ten yellow-haired wolves he managed to kill, but it was not enough to raise his level.

"Are you all right?" Ares asked the five youths who were looking at him in amazement.

"Si… sir, thank you for helping us," said one of the youths representing his other colleagues.

"There's no need to thank us. We humans are supposed to help each other." Ares waves his sword, and in an instant, his sword is clean out of the blood stains.

"In this forest, there are many beasts and monsters whose strength is above you. It's not that you are only looking to die if you are in this kind of place."
