The Goblin's Leveling System!

I glanced towards the criminals before returning my gaze towards the beastman king.

"More allies, more power, right? If they become my slaves, killing the demon lords will be much easier!"

The beastman king nodded since, for him, it would be a waste for the criminals' strength to not be used since it would be better if they participated in battles.

It was almost impossible to make the criminals listen to someone unless they were criminals themselves or they possessed a skill to enslave which I had already acquired.

When I went near one of the criminals, a familiar sound rang inside his mind.

*Ding!*

*The host has triggered a hidden task. More rewards will be give compared to normal tasks. Will the host accept or not?*

It wasn't the system that said it since there wasn't a voice feature but only a text message was shown on the system screen.

There were still six days left before I could speak with the system again so I felt the urge to want to talk with the system again.

Even though the system was annoying and always asked me for almost impossible and absurd tasks, I still liked how the system gave me many rewards whenever I completed a system task.

I am curious about what kind of avatar the system would get after reaching level 4.

I will accept the task.

*The host has accepted the task. Task information will be displayed... Task information has been displayed.*

______________________

S+ Rank Task

Completed 0/28

-Enslave all of the most heinous beastman criminals that were locked up inside the Eldion Prison. The criminals will be loyal to you after you enslave them.

Reward:

+28 powerful loyal criminals waiting for your command. The title is known as [Hero Of The Underworld Society]

Failure:

The host would become the slave of the criminals instead.

______________________

Why do I felt that I'm stepping on the evil path?

Well, I don't care anyway. Even if I became someone who was labeled by the people as 'evil', as long as I can fulfill my goal, it would be but a small sacrifice.

Now, let's get started.

I cast [Enslave] towards the criminal that was in front of me.

The criminal didn't resist as if he resigned and accepted his fate.

After I finished enslaving the criminal in front of me, I went to the other criminals and cast [Enslave] on them.

********

Eight minutes had passed. It took more time since some resisted which resulted in me beating the hell out of them.

*Ding!*

*The host has completed the S+ Rank Task. The task rewards will be delivered... Task rewards have been delivered.*

*Ding!*

*The host has acquired a new title! The title known as [Hero Of The Underworld Society] has been acquired. Beings from criminal organizations will now respect you.*

Eh? Isn't that good? Now I don't have to worry about some bandits infiltrating my houses or something like that.

I could use the time they respected me to perform a surprise attack that will either enslave or execute them.

I checked the level of [Enslave]. It was previously level 2 but now it's level 3.

I could use it with less mana than before and with a higher success rate of enslaving the being I cast it to.

I wonder what would happen if it reached level 10 or the level higher than level 10 which was MAX level.

Maybe I would be able to enslave a God.

"What do you want us to do, master?"

One of the criminals asked while performing a bow and the other criminals followed suit.

"What is your name?"

"Mark Clark is my name, master."

I checked the status of the criminal known as Mark Clark.

______________________

Mark was quite strong. He was qualified to become the leader of the criminals since he had the most stats in intelligence and wisdom not to mention his title known as a strategist.

"Mark be honored because I will grant you the position of Shadow Beast leader. Shadow Beast will be the name of the group you are going to lead."

"Yes, master. I felt honored but may I ask why the group is named Shadow Beast?"

The criminal known as Mark Clark asked me while trying to be polite as possible.

"You are all-powerful beasts that will lurk in my shadows and whenever I need your assistance, all of you will heed my orders without question."

"I understand, master."

"We understand, master!"

After Mark replied to me, the other 27 criminals that I had enslaved replied to me at the same time. They all bowed after replying to me but I signaled them not to do so.

"You all don't have to be polite but need to be obedient. I don't need sweet talkers who curry favors but beings who can finish the jobs that I'm going to give to all of you."

As I said that, they all listened and didn't interrupt me.

"Any suggestions?"

"Master, how about you make a ranking for all of us so that we could take your request much more efficiently with the right people to take your request. Like if you need us to do labor then it is up to the lower-ranking ones while the assassination job or monster subjugation jobs will be handled by the higher ranking ones.", Mark suggested.

"Master, you can also assign some of us jobs that we would be able to perform well or jobs that are our forte."

One of the other criminals suggested.

"What's your name?"

"Charles Smith is my name, master."

Charles spoke while performing a 90-degree bow.

"Charles, you will be the assistant leader of the Shadow Beast. Assist Mark whenever he needs your help and you can act as a temporary leader whenever Mark is not present to lead the group."

"I understand, master."

Charles agreed and went near Mark to discuss the leadership and management of the Shadow Beast group.

The remaining 26 criminals waited for my orders while listening to Mark and Charles.

Mark and Charles told the members of Shadow Beast about the rules of the group like they must show loyalty towards me which was already a given since after the [Enslave] skill was cast on them, they wouldn't be able to betray me.

"We must not waste any more time, goblin hero. The demons had already infiltrated Eldion and are currently disguising themselves as beastman to fool my people. We must eliminate them before they make their move!"

The beastman king exclaimed while his hatred for the demons for infiltrating his kingdom was shown.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, I already defeated all of the demons. They were too arrogant to use low-rank disguise spells in front of me which is an insult to me who has a skill that could see through illusions and disguises."

I replied to the beastman king. He was surprised that I already eliminated the demons but he still sighed in relief that his kingdom was safe.

"I cannot thank you enough for the things that you have helped me with! I will give you some money after I return to my palace."

"You don't have to give me your money since the freedom of the criminals is enough not to mention that Eldion is on a tight budget since most of the money was used to repair the kingdom."

"You are a hero indeed! Thank you so much and if you want I can engage you to my eldest daughte-"

"I object. I already have a fiancee so no thank you."

I interrupted the beastman king since Aerin might throw a tantrum if she knew that I had accepted another fiancee, not that I'm planning to since it's too much of a hassle.

Even if I was planning to have another future wife then I would have accepted the offer of the dragon king.

{You are missing out since my daughter is so beautiful and has a kind personality that several nobles from other races asked me about it but I declined their offers. I still respect your choice since I judged that Aerin would be a perfect match for you.}

So you were observing the situation right now, Dragon King? Did I entertain you?

{Well, yes but the reason why you have entertained me is that I don't have that much entertainment since I was living in seclusion inside the dragon cave until you trespassed it. I felt joyful after we fought each other because I haven't fought for a long time that my skills are getting rusty.}

You were a worthy opponent of mine. But, I felt irritated after you said that you haven't used all of your powers since it was sealed while I used all of my powers to defeat you.

{The gods wouldn't let someone like me roam around without any restrictions. Even the demon lords were given a restriction.}

I know this might be late to ask but may I ask where is your daughter?

{She is at the dragon mountain near my dragon ca- oh sh*t! I forgot to bring her with me!}
