>[Single Summon: 5% chance for a Phantasmal-Rank Summon]
>[x10 Summon: 0.1% chance for a Phantasmal-Rank Summon]
…
In front of Chaos, there seemed that there were two options! Was this a gacha or something?!
The good thing was that Chaos had never played such games, so he never suffered what was actually the horror of playing a gacha, phew!
Nonetheless, this made him a bit conflicted…
What should he pick and what should he not pick? It was complicated, he was not familiar with gacha games at all, in fact, he had never played a video game before, and briefly knew about their concept to a small amount due to the books or outdated newspaper he had once read sometimes, very little times, through his previous life.
If he were knowledgeable with gacha games, however, he would still be conflicted.
"What is this? It says that I can summon one for a higher chance of a stronger summon, while there is another option where I can summon ten times, but the chances are the "normal" ones…" said Chaos.
"I-Is that so? Hm… Well, I don't remember Master Ainz's experience any of this, my lord. I remember him always summoning many at the same time… Oh! I remember you said that the artifact bind to the system? It most likely through the blood core, right?" asked Belphegor.
"Yes, I do recall it being like that. What happened there?" asked Chaos.
"It is difficult to explain even for me, I don't really get it completely. But Blood Cores seem to have special properties I never knew about, my lord! For instance, such an ability to connect to artifacts and then the system is… baffling! Perhaps your Blood Core is unique on by itself!" said Belphegor.
"Hm… Well, anyway, I will choose the x10 option because I want more summons, I can strengthen them through my miasma, so it doesn't matter if they're weak," said Chaos, selecting the second option without doubting!
Ding!
[You have chosen the [x10 Summon: 0.1% chance for a Phantasmal-Rank Summon] Option!]
FLASH!
The entire machine became to tremble as several sparks of light started to generate from it!
Chaos and Belphegor, and everyone else around them watched with surprise as many magic circles emerged out of thin air one after another, covering a large amount of the floor!
"Oh, these are going to be summoned outside because the machine cannot take that many…!" said Belphegor, as he and everyone else moved farther away from the magic circles, which were ten!
Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash!
Several flashing lights emerged, taking the shapes of large figures one after another!
What did Chaos summon?!
Ding!
[You summoned the following Monsters]
[Skeleton Soldier (Normal-Rank+++)]
[Skeleton Soldier (Normal-Rank+++)]
[Skeleton Magician (Unique-Rank)]
[Skeleton Soldier (Normal-Rank+++)]
[Blue Slime (Normal++)]
[Red Slime (Normal++)]
[Green Slime (Normal++)]
[Troll Warrior (Unique++)]
[Lizardman Shaman (Unique+++)]
[High Succubus (Mythical+++)]
…
Before Chaos and everyone around him, ten creatures of varied sizes emerged, there were around four skeletons who looked almost identical and seemed to release a very weak presence… One of them, however, instead of wearing some rusty armor and a spear was holding into an old staff and had mage clothes.
Three slimes seemed, somewhat, even weaker than the skeletons! How could this be? Slimes were overpowered! …Right?
All three slimes were of different colors, from blue, red, and green…
And then there was a large Troll, a monster Chaos had already seen and eaten before, who served the Mind Flayer. This one was a bit more decently strong, although it seemed weaker than the ones he had killed and eaten before.
And there was also a lizardman, a humanoid creature with the features of a lizard, it had the head of a lizard too, and hard armor-like scales covering his body, he wore tribal shaman-like clothes and staff, and seemed to exude a decent magical presence.
And lastly, there was… a beautiful demoness! The Succubus had pale-white skin, fair and smooth like porcelain. Alongside that, she had a beautiful face, sharp pink eyes that shined with some crimson-red eeriness, long purple hair reaching her hips, and two little black horns at each side of her head, alongside two small bat-like wings in her back and a long tail with a pointy end in the shape of a heart… her attire seemed made of tight latex and showed a lot of skin, her smile seemed complacent, and she immediately winked at Chaos coquettishly.
"Oh, there they are! My lord, ten summons! Outstanding- eh? These seem rather weak- A-Anyways, nothing that my lord's naming or miasma cannot fix!" said Belphegor.
All the summons proceeded to kneel before Chaos in silence, easily recognizing him as their lord!
"Amazing… did he just brought to life new monsters…?" asked Natalia.
"That's right, this is the powerful summoning artifact Master Ainz used to build an army quickly. It is a prized artifact and treasure that perhaps many would hope to have!" said Jack.
"Incredible, with this, we can really build an army…" said Dura.
"Indeed, with this, we can really build a strong one! Even more, if we count Chaos Naming Skill and then his Mutagenic Miasma…" said Abyss.
Chaos quickly walked towards his summons as he greeted them.
"Hello, I am your Master, Chaos. Can you talk?" he asked rather politely.
The Summons glanced at him, it seemed that none could talk, even the lizardman only was able to release screeches, and the troll only screams, except…
"Ah, my lord, I am capable of speaking, unlike my comrades at my side. I am a nameless Succubus contracted to you and summoned into this world originating from a faraway Hell Plane, it is a pleasure to meet you, Master Chaos. I am at your orders, please, feel free to ask me to do anything. For you, I am willing to give my life," said the succubus, with a coquettish smile.
Chaos was surprised by the eloquence of the woman, as he nodded.
"I'll be using your help from now on. And a name… How about Lilith?"
