The Lich was the same Rank as Ragnar and Raya, but Jason was shocked when he saw that it had forty thousand mana points! That was just under half of what Jason had, and Jason knew that this mana was far higher than any of his other subordinates! Jason gained a wicked smile on his face once he realised how useful this skill was going to be! Jason had already figured out that he would have the ability to resurrect the bodies of dead monsters with the Lich’s skill, but there was a problem with that plan. Even though Jason had a lot of mana, most of it was used up in trying to control and support his original Legion. If Jason started using his mana to also resurrect the bodies of dead monsters, then it would only run out faster.

’But why the hell do I have to be the one to control the dead monsters?’

Jason looked up at the Lich with his smile still in place, and he immediately sent a message to the system.

’If the Lich reanimates an undead creature, can I still resurrect monsters that are killed by the Lich’s undead subordinates?’

Since the Lich was a Rank III, it could take on fifty subordinates from Jason’s Legion, but the Lich also had the ability to create his own subordinates using his Necrosis magic. It would be a bit disappointing if Jason found out that he couldn’t resurrect the monsters or people that were killed by the Lich’s subordinate, but once the system replied, Jason’s grin widened!

[The Lich is the user’s subordinate; therefore, every action carried out by the Lich is by extension also carried out by the user. If the Lich uses its mana to create subordinates and its subordinates kill other beings, then the user will still be capable of resurrecting them.]

Gina felt her brow rise in confusion when she saw Jason put his hand over his face and laugh happily! It was strange to see Jason suddenly laughing like that, but in a way, Gina guessed that it had something to do with Jason’s system. Gina wrapped her hand around Jason’s waist and buried her face in his neck while asking him what was going on, and Jason put his hand around her shoulder and answered as he slowly came down from his hysterics.

"I just figured out that this bastard is a lot more useful than I thought, so I’m going to work him to the bone... Hmm, that’s true—"

’—Can you hear me like this?’

Gina was already shaking her head at Jason’s horrible pun, but her eyes suddenly widened as she heard Jason’s voice in her head. She looked at Jason and nodded ’yes’, and Jason smiled.

’I have this link with all the members of my Legion. You can send me messages from anywhere in the world, so let’s use this to talk when it’s convenient.’

Gina couldn’t help but laugh in sheer disbelief.

’Your Gift is so freaking versatile. Does this take up any mana?’

Gina had a child-like awe in her voice as she asked this, and when Jason shook his head, Gina just let out a sigh since she couldn’t even be surprised anymore! She knew that she should have gotten used to Jason’s versatile Gift by now, but she couldn’t help but think that his Gift was just too broken! There were millions of people who would kill to have even one of Jason’s abilities, not to mention all of them! Gina was just thankful that an ability like this ended up with Jason and no one else. Just thinking about the things an evil person would do with a Gift like this sent shivers down her spine.

Jason turned back towards the Lich as the system sent him a new message.

[Would the User like to choose a name for the new Rook? Yes/No?]

Jason hummed and put his hand on his chin as he tried to think of a good name. From the memories that Jason got from the Lich, Jason knew that the Lich’s actual name was Logof, but that didn’t seem like a name Jason wanted to give his subordinate. The Lich was a Necromancer with power over the dead, so Jason wanted a fitting name for it.

’Azrael.’

This name suddenly passed through Jason’s mind, and Jason nodded to himself calmly. Azrael was a name that signified the Angel of Death, and it just made perfect sense for the Lich to have a name like that.

[Would the user like to choose the name [Azrael] for the subordinate?]

Jason chose yes, and he watched as the Lich’s tab changed.

Once Jason was done with that, he told some of the Phantoms to go and grab all the Journals, documents, and any artefacts that were in Azrael’s cave, since Jason would need them for studying Runes later in the future. Jason then used some of his magic to resurrect Ragnar.

ROARRR!

Ragnar reformed in the air above Jason, and Jason looked up with a smile as the large dragon dived down to the ground and almost crashed into him! Ragnar charged forward quickly, and Jason easily caught the giant dragon and rubbed its head while laughing as Ragnar blew hot steam into his face in excitement! Ragnar was the one who had taken out the Lich during its final attack, and Ragnar wagged its tail excitedly while asking Jason if he saw the magnificent firebreath!

"Yeah, you were great! That was the brightest one you’ve produced yet!"

Ragnar beamed with pride once it heard this, and it flapped its wings and raised a massive gale wind in the region from its happiness! Jason just chuckled again at Ragnar’s excitement, and he watched as Ragnar turned its sight over to Gina. Gina was watching them with wide eyes, and Jason knew that she was just surprised by the fact that there was a dragon in front of her. Even though magic was a common thing on Earth now, it was still shocking for most people whenever they saw Ragnar, since Ragnar was the truest definition of a Magical Beast. But Ragnar didn’t even waste a second as it immediately pounced on Gina and began to nozzle into her with its nose! Gina let out a cry as she struggled to hold onto the giant dragon, and she laughed when Ragnar blew hot steam into her face!

Ragnar recognized Gina from all the time that she spent inside Jason’s Alternate Dimension, so it was comfortable around her! Because Ragnar and every other member of the Legion knew that this was the King’s mate, they had no trouble accepting her as a part of them!

"You’re like a giant puppy!"

Gina couldn’t stop herself from laughing as she tried to wrestle with Ragnar! In her excitement, Gina didn’t even realise that she was using far more power than she had ever had in her life! Since Gina was now a Rook, she was able to withstand Ragnar’s immense power while they played, but if Gina had tried something like this when she was still only a C Rank, then she would have been easily crushed by Ragnar’s strength!
