Chapter 37: Chapter 37: The Moon-White Clan_l

Translator: 549690339

Under Leo Ray’s silent and increasingly murderous gaze, the old half-elf knew that he had little time left to think.

At this moment, Leo Ray appeared like an insurmountable peak, crushing him beneath his weight.

If it continued like this, the fate awaiting them might be extinction.

After a short moment, the back of the old half-elf’s robe had been completely soaked with sweat.

The human youth before him undoubtedly had the terrifying ability to slaughter his entire tribe in a single instant!

Under immense pressure, just when the old half-elf could hardly breathe and was about to give up in despair, his eyes brightened as he suddenly realized something.

Right! Since the other party was so powerful and his own tribe wanted to save their lives and continue their bloodline. Then, the answer was obvious.

Why not just do it directly?

Although doing so also carried huge risks.

But it could ultimately give their tribe a chance to survive and even revive their race!

This was a gamble, a gamble that involved the future of their half-elf tribe and all their people!

Realizing this, the old half-elf didn’t hesitate and threw down his walking stick, trembling as he knelt on one knee before Leo Ray, saying, “Honorable Lord, I am Gunner Santons, the elder of the Moonwhite Tribe.

On behalf of our half-elf Moonwhite Tribe, I swear in the name of our bloodline that I am willing to sign an Obedience Pact with you and serve you for generations to come!

From now on, under your protection, we shall live and die together, advance and retreat together!”

“Grandfather?!” Upon hearing this, the half-elf girl’s long eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, and her face was filled with an incredulous expression. The other half-elf warriors also looked at each other in shock, their mouths agape.

Without a doubt, doing this meant placing the fate of their entire tribe into the hands of the human youth before them!

“An Obedience Pact?”

On the other side, Leo Ray was somewhat surprised as well, based on the Imowledge that had surged into his mind at the beginning, he clearly understood.

At its core, an Obedience Pact was no different from the master-servant contract automatically signed when summoning subordinates using the Recruitment Order.

It’s just that instead of an individual, the subject became an entire tribe sharing the same bloodline.

Moreover, beyond the master-servant contract.

Once the Obedience Pact was successfully signed, every life form in the entire tribe, including descendants with the same bloodline,

would automatically be bound to the life of the Lord himself, unable to take any actions detrimental to the Lord or his territory.

This meant that if the Lord were to die suddenly, the entire tribe would also be wiped out.

Crucially, this binding was one-sided.

Conversely, even if the entire tribe were wiped out, it would not have any impact on the conqueror Lord.

Additionally, if the Lord needed to, he could directly turn one or more individuals from the subordinate tribe into direct subordinates without using a Recruitment Order.

In short, once the Obedience Pact was signed,

Leo Ray would gain an ally who would never betray him, or rather, a chess piece that he could discard at any time.

And as long as they weren’t converted into direct subordinates, they wouldn’t count towards the population limit of the territory itself.

That being said, although signing an Obedience Pact had no downsides for a Lord, it was undoubtedly difficult to achieve.

It required the consent of over 99% of the tribe members with independent thinking capabilities who share the same bloodline in order to be successfully signed.

One could imagine, if not in an absolutely desperate situation or under extremely special circumstances, who would willingly hand over their life and future to others?

It was therefore obvious how shocked the half-elf girl and the other half-elf warriors were when the old half-elf uttered those words.

However, at this moment, everyone clearly understood.

If they didn’t completely offer their loyalty and everything to the human Lord in front of them, death would undoubtedly be their fate.

Thinking of this, all the half-elf warriors followed the footsteps of the old half-elf and knelt down.

Especially the half-elf girl called Belinda Wright, although her heart was filled with resentment, finally clenched her teeth and lowered her proud head to Leo

Ray.

“Stand up, all of you, I agree.”

With a slight nod, though his expression seemed calm, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel excited in his heart.

How could he refuse such a good thing that had come to his doorstep?

Having such a ferociously loyal half-elf force would undoubtedly raise his own strength and safety to a new level!

“Please wait a moment, honorable Lord. I will have all the tribe members come out to meet you, and we will immediately prepare for the contract ceremony!”

On the other side, the old half-elf’s face lightened with joy, as he quickly ran out.

Seeing this scene, Leo Ray stared in surprise, then shook his head with a mixed expression of amusement and disbelief.

“Well, this old half-elf’s walking stick is still lying on the ground.”

Ten minutes later, Leo Ray stood calmly on the high platform next to the arched stone building from before, while the large fire in the village had already been easily extinguished by Scarlett.

By his side stood Taylor and his three other subordinates.

At Leo Ray’s behest, they now unleashed their full power.

Especially Taylor, who was gripping his giant sword with both hands, exuded an extremely terrifying energy that made the surrounding air thicken. Beneath the high platform, hundreds of unarmed half-elves bowed their heads in reverence and unease, men and women, old and young alike.

“Everyone, listen to me first.”

At this time, the old half-elf who had picked up his walking stick again, walked shakily to the front of Leo Ray and respectfully saluted him.

He then turned to face the other half-elves and spoke loudly, “Everyone, last night, a deadly crisis suddenly descended upon every single one of us.

Those despicable half-orcs, driven by greed and slaughter, invaded to seize our sacred treasure and completely annihilate our tribe.

In the face of life and death, it was this brave and kind Lord who led his powerful subordinates to eradicate the enemy, helping us to survive this crisis.

Therefore, as the elder of our tribe, I decided to sign an Obedience Pact with the Lord to express our gratitude and respect for him!”

Upon hearing this, the half-elves below the platform began to exchange glances with one another.

Due to the generally longer lifespans of half-elves, which exceeded 200 years, their experience was relatively rich.

As such, except for the inexperienced young half-elves.

When they saw the majestic Leo Ray and his subordinates on the platform, the vast majority of them had already understood the implications.

There was no other choice but to agree!

At the same time, in Leo Ray’s ears, the long-lost prompt sound echoed once more.

[Your Excellency Lord, the Moonwhite Tribe wishes to sign an Obedience Pact with you.. Do you accept?]
