11 - I Got A Lot of Family Members
[We offer loyalty and absolute submission to the Great White Sovereign!]
[Nothing can stop us Death Worms!]
[Blood and flesh shall boil over in the golden desert!]
[The world is topsy-turvy~! Inside a topsy-turvy world~!]
[Oppa desert style! Kungkwarakkwang! Kungkwakkwang~!]
[Faster than anyone else, different from others~!]
Male and female voices bursting chaotically around me.
They were the Death Worms and Sand Worms I attempted to tame.
Their number easily exceeded 100.
[Please issue any command to us!]
[We are the hands and feet of the White Sovereign!]
[Thank you for injecting reason and intellect! Kyahahat-!]
[Tteuttta…! Tteuuttai tteutttatta~! Utteya~!]
[Sex! Sex! Sex on the beachiii-!]
[Chaos! Destruction! Ruiiin-!]
Death Worms and Sand Worms dancing like wind puppets with their bodies awkwardly extended on the ground.
No, why do these worms have such overflowing individuality?
Each one is chattering away, making it completely chaotic.
[White Sovereign, what menial task do you intend to command?]
A sinister and gloomy old man’s voice, the Death Worm closest to me asked.
Surprisingly, it’s exactly like a human male voice.
Due to the nature of telepathic thought waves, language distinction is ambiguous.
[Hmm…]
Only a solemn sighing sound flowed from me as I experienced brain freeze.
I first tried to understand the cause of this phenomenon.
Those who tame summoned beasts, spirits, magical beasts, magical creatures, or animals are called tamers.
In English, they are clearly distinguished as summoners, elementalists, monster tamers, or animal tamers, but in the broader framework, they are all classified as tamer types.
I exerted a subjugation order in the area using the monster taming skill acquired from S-class hunter Wang Junlin.
Literally, it’s an order to subjugate as servants any worm types in the vicinity.
I tried it with desert fish but failed, so this time the targets were naturally other worms.
…The problem was the current state of the worms.
They are in a state of excessively injected reason, intellect, and individuality.
This is due to the caster-object mental synchronization characteristic of tamers.
The moment a caster subjugates an object, injection of reason and intellect and inheritance of all knowledge by the current tamer’s standard automatically occurs.
This is necessary so that commands based on modern civilization can be issued, such as going to the market for shopping, bringing a remote control from the second drawer, or watching a frying pan until the meat is cooked.
It wouldn’t work if the tamed creature couldn’t understand language or carry out any orders after all the effort of taming.
The key here is that Wang Junlin was an S-class tamer.
The stronger the tamer attempting the taming, the more massive the merits given.
The level of synchronization between caster and object naturally follows the tamer’s level, and at S-class, virtually 100% synchronization is achieved.
In addition, potential and hidden characteristics are awakened.
It can even grant independent individuality.
That’s why the worms subjugated to me are going wild.
It was the moment when ignorant creatures who just ate dirt and pounced on lost desert souls instantly transformed to be like humans.
In fact, these creatures now are just worms in appearance but should be considered Koreans from South Korea from my previous life.
The worms have transformed completely into Koreans.
[Battle! Battle! Battle!]
[Peace! Peace! Peace!]
The Death Worms and Sand Worms perform a choir of extreme tendencies.
It’s like seeing aspects of devils and angels.
I assessed with my current knowledge.
Worms adapt to various natural environments in the Arubian West Continent of the otherworld Elzeria.
In ordinary plains there are Earth Worms, in the freezing northern continent there are Snow Worms, on hills or mountains there are Hill Worms or Mountain Worms, in forested areas there are Forest Worms, near rivers or lakes there are River Worms or Lake Worms, and Sea Worms and Seabed Worms live in oceans and seabeds.
There are also extreme types like Volcano Worms living near lava which might be an even more extreme environment than the desert, and Heaven Worms, Hell Worms, and Abyss Worms adapted to the heavenly realm, demon realm, and abyss.
They are truly worm bastards that have adapted to all kinds of ecological environments with great difficulty.
Since worms living in the desert are Death Worms and Sand Worms, it was natural that these creatures were captured by my subjugation order.
If this had been a different terrain, completely different creatures would have been subjugated.
Death Worms have a form similar to mine but are bright red in color.
Just like the Mongolian tradition, they look like red intestines taking the form of worms.
They are smaller than Sand Worms, averaging about 15 meters.
Sand Worms have mouths like four-petaled flower buds, with teeth arranged on the four split square jaws suitable for crushing sand and rocks.
They have a bright beige color reflecting the color of sand, and as befitting arthropods, they have bodies surrounded by exoskeletons and segmented bodies.
They are larger than Death Worms, averaging about 30 meters.
Death Worms are carnivorous, eating living creatures, while Sand Worms are omnivorous, swallowing sand.
There were no small or young juveniles, all were adults.
[I welcome you, becoming my subjects…]
I sincerely congratulated all of them in Korean.
[Wu, uuuu-! White Sovereign! May you be eternal!]
[Nothing shall block our way!]
[Let’s cover this world in a festival of blood!]
[Slaughter! Slaughter! Slaughter!]
[Destruction! Destruction! Destruction!]
Immediately, fervent cheers returned from the Death Worms.
Very naturally, they threw identical Korean telepathy at me expressing their intentions.
Even their appearance is completely red intestines, and these creatures even spit blood from their circular-toothed mouths.
It was really grotesque, enough to make your hands and feet curl up.
Was I truly similar to these creatures before evolving into a lord…
[Brother! What task shall we handle first!?]
[Hey, boss! Just trust us!]
[Boss! Everything will be fine if you leave it to us!]
[Our Hwayang, let’s do everything you want!]
[White oppa! Love you~!]
Following them, the Sand Worms cheered like fan club members.
Their most characteristic trait is that they call me by truly diverse names.
With that seven-colored rainbow panorama gradient diversity, my head started to spin again.
[Kill, burn, and destroy everything!]
[Ah~! This world is full of the light of hoope~!]
Desert worms bobbing their protruding bodies in a certain rhythm.
It’s like seeing tamed pet snakes fawning over their owner.
Death Worms and Sand Worms each chanted.
[Despair! Despair! Despair!]
[Hope! Hope! Hope!]
Death Worms are dark, Sand Worms are bright.
What is this extreme difference in atmosphere?
[Sovereign, please bestow names upon us.]
[Names! Names! Names!]
The Death Worm with the sinister old man’s voice who first spoke to me requested again.
The Death Worms and Sand Worms cheered in unison.
I pondered his request.
[Names…]
They are already spiritual beings with reason and intellect.
They have become exactly like me.
I began naming them one by one.
[From the left, Tarkhan, Erden, Batar, Zorya, Kacha…]
Various Mongolian male and female names flowed freely.
I named them using the knowledge from the Mongolian Three Battle Wolves hunters.
The first Death Worm with the sinister and gloomy old man’s voice is Tarkhan.
The second Death Worm with the cold and chic male voice is Erden.
The third Death Worm with the hot-tempered and rough male voice is Batar.
The fourth Death Worm with the seductive and sadistic female voice is Zorya.
The fifth Death Worm with the vicious and playful girl’s voice is Kacha.
After that, appropriate Mongolian male and female names.
[From the right, Sivat, Karim, Rimud, Sharan, Zand…]
I gave names to each of the Sand Worms as well.
This was through the combined knowledge of all the hunters I had consumed.
The first Sand Worm with the hot-blooded foolish male voice is Sivat.
The second Sand Worm with the lively and spirited boy’s voice is Karim.
The third Sand Worm with the husky sexy older sister voice is Rimud.
The fourth Sand Worm with a high female voice like an idol is Sharan.
The fifth Sand Worm with a mischievous young girl’s voice is Zand.
After that, appropriate Arabian West Continent and Arab-style male and female names.
[…End.]
Naming 105 worms made my head throb.
Honestly, can I even memorize all of this?
I’ll try to do so for now.
[First… let’s move somewhere else to talk. There are many other magical beasts nearby here so there will be interruptions, and above all, it’s too cramped.]
I notified everyone while burrowing my body into the ground.
Dudududu-
So I burrowed first.
The worms all buried their heads in the ground at once.
Their raised tails squeezed into the ground.
[Execute! We will comply immediately!]
[We could just sweep away all obstacles…]
[How exciting to hear what you’ll discuss!]
[Move out quick! Let’s all change locations now!]
[This is truly an exciting and fun picnic!]
[Go! Go! Go! Rock and roll!]
Dudududu-
The worm family also collectively burrowed.
Thus, silence fell upon the scene.
Only the sound of sudden dust echoed.
Hwiing-
A journey to find a stable colony for the group.
The purpose is to maximize each other’s survival rate.
It has just begun.
*
A desert where a noisy gathering of worms is taking place.
The sight of a group of over 100 is magnificent.
“Krureuk.”
A head with a protruding crest, gleaming vertical pupils, a yellow sleek body.
It watches the scene from behind a sand dune far away.
The being tilted its head repeatedly in puzzlement.
“Kiiik, kiiik?”
A completely different appearance from usual.
Worms that rarely gather together, gathering in one place was unusual.
“……”
With their characteristic massive bodies protruding from the ground, they just stand still without saying anything.
The center of the group was, of course, the White Sovereign.
At some point, the sovereign buried its head in the ground.
Kugugugung-
The White Sovereign dug deep into the ground.
Kugugugung-
All other worms also dug into the ground.
It took less than 10 seconds for everyone to disappear into the ground at once.
“Kiieek.”
A theropod dinosaur living in the desert, with an impressive crest protruding from its head.
The gaze that initially accompanied indifferent interest changed.
The Shaharraptor sharply turned its body direction.
Tattak, tattak, tattak.
Two legs with threatening claws that rose long like hand sickles ran quickly.
It leaps over a flat rock that appeared along the way and runs away quickly.
The Grabadra Sea located in the eastern part of the Shahar Great Desert.
The worms here are suddenly showing strange trends.
The running dragon let out a cry.
“Kiiek! Kiiee-!”
Not far from the Grabadra Sea, in the Nargal Plateau located in the northern part of the great desert.
One of the four great magical beast lords ruling that place.
The Red Dinosaur King had to know this fact.
