Monster Lord: The Goblin Offers the Saintess to Me at the Start

Sivis' words landed with weight, though the volume wasn't loud, they echoed around, making everyone hear clearly.

What does that even mean...

There's no way, this is just a joke, right?

The civilians' excited and surprised expressions fell apart.

They looked at Sivis with confusion and bewilderment, not believing what they had just heard: "No plan? No preparation? Then how did you just come here?"

"You didn't have to come to rescue us."

"We don't deserve you to risk your life!"

...

A wave of disappointment and pessimism spread instantly everywhere.

But the civilians didn't angrily accuse or blame anything, they just felt a bit sad.

Their lord was so great, why would he just throw himself away like this?

Their thoughts were very reasonable — with their own super strong combat power and immunity to infection?

Then we would still have to wait and suffer slowly.

There might be tens of thousands of monsters in the city, can we really hold out?

The civilians were no longer as confident as they once were, they just felt that even if Sivis had arrived, it still seemed a bit hopeless.

After all, the female knight was once a super warrior, but in the end, she still ran out of energy...

Lord, even if you're strong, one person can't do much, can you?

People didn't let their expressions turn completely into despair, mainly because the Lord's super strong combat power made them feel...

It wasn't completely hopeless to just hold on, at least there was a chance to survive.

But the relaxed minds were tight again.

The men with weapons were already exhausted, their physical strength had been pushed to the limit, but they still stood together.

"That's fine, Lord, your coming is already enough. We are willing to serve you, willing to die for you."

They each pointed their weapons outward, ready for battle!

The first effect of Holy Swordsmanship had already faded, the light turned into tiny stars flying around.

The waves of Blood Servants came again, dark and heavy, and it looked like the battle would start again in just a few seconds.

Sivis simply shook his head calmly: "No, you misunderstood. Because I don't need any preparation or plan. This disaster is already over. I have a better solution — one that doesn't require your effort or sacrifice."

"No need for any method!"

"Just a few tens of thousands of Blood Servants — we can just crush them straight on!"

Sivis' voice gradually got louder.

At this moment...

Everyone was stunned by his words.

Sivis had just used a bit of rhetoric — first, making the civilians feel disappointed, then offering his deal — using the power of the monsters!

He had already explained this to the female knight before, saying that he had the permission to absorb blood magic, and controlling monsters wasn't a big deal.

His original intention was good — to save people!

In this way, Sivis could easily paint himself as the "hero who risked everything to save the people from the blood plague, absorbing blood magic power, advancing to silver, and controlling a group of monsters to serve and protect the people."

He, Sivis, wasn't some Monster Lord. He was just a small merchant, a small noble — a law-abiding citizen!

He just wanted to make money!

Suddenly erupted plague destroyed his dream. He was forced to fight for his people, and eventually "recovered" the monsters, escaping the disaster!

That's so inspiring!

That's so touching!

He wasn't the heir of some Evil God, nor was he chosen by some monster domain!

Sivis becoming a Monster Lord was a huge sacrifice!

This was his plan to clean his name!

After this, with the official backing of Vikalina, with the sincere belief of the people, and with real achievements of saving the people — who could say that Sivis was a naturally evil Monster Lord?

He was forced to use monster power for others — it was so unavoidable!

The people present didn't understand Sivis' good intentions.

They were listening to Sivis' words, and they were stunned.

Then they looked at their lord, with his cloak fluttering in the moonlight, although covered in blood, he still showed a sense of grandeur.

What he said really did have some convincing power.

But as people looked around and then at the lord, they thought he might be a bit crazy.

Even if you're one person with super strength, you can't crush that many monsters by yourself.

"Roar!!"

"Aaaaaah!!"

The Blood Servants approached again, their loud, annoying cries filling the air.

But Sivis remained unmoved, standing still in place.

The civilians were a bit lost, and at this point, even if Sivis was a powerful lord, he would have to go to the front line and join the defense — this was a routine they were very familiar with.

But no one dared to give orders to the lord!

As the monsters were about to arrive, the men on the front line were gripping their weapons, pacing anxiously.

It wasn't until the Blood Servants slowly and steadily approached — getting so close that they were about to burst into the group — that the two knights from the Knight Order, who had been hiding among the crowd, started preparing for defense with blank expressions.

They were the least trustworthy toward Sivis.

The two of them just felt that this lord wasn't some kind of evil demon who manipulated people, but rather a madman.

Vikalina had been tricked because Sivis was crazy — he took everything too seriously, spoke whatever came to his mind, and had just a little bit of power.

The inexperienced female knight had actually believed he was some kind of savior!

It was all a bunch of nonsense!

Well…

At least he was a silver-ranked powerhouse, and these Blood Clans seemed to have gotten weaker for some reason. Maybe they could try to hold out for a while.

The knights thought.

The civilians had pretty much the same idea — if there was a chance, they could just grit their teeth and keep going.

Only Reina directly retreated into the defense line, not planning to fight anymore.

She just knew that the master had said it was possible to crush the monsters in front of them — so it had to be possible.

Vikalina didn't hesitate either, just urged, "Just use whatever technique you have — quickly."

She believed in Sivis, but she was still worried, scared of any casualties.

Sivis snapped his fingers: "Relax, I didn't come earlier because I was saving a big gift for these Blood Clans."

He felt his face go pale. To show off, Sivis forced himself to stay still, not moving, but his arm that had just snapped was already slightly trembling — in that instant, his divine power had been almost completely drained!

Summon Guardian!

A unique skill of the player, now shining with light!

Sivis had directly summoned eight out of ten of the monsters in his territory!

Each summoned monster required a portion of divine power to transport, another portion to strengthen, and then a third portion to send them back after the battle.

As a special skill designed specifically for players, it wasn't completely without flaws. It was more like a rule-based ability, not a martial technique that could be freely adjusted. Sivis had masterfully used Holy Swordsmanship, but "Summon Guardian" had to be used in the strict way it was meant to be.

Otherwise, he would have definitely chosen not to send the monsters back to save divine power.

The next second, countless beams of white light flared up around them.

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!

...

With the pleasant sounds, it was like an orchestra, or a neon light show.

In the eyes of the people, after the light around them was lit up, one by one, the figures of monsters appeared —

The most common ones were a group of Goblins. But these Goblins were quite different from what the common people normally thought of. Each of them was over two meters tall, with bulging muscles, and they weren't holding any weapons — mainly because Sivis' "Summon Guardian" didn't enhance their weapons. These Goblins used their usual wooden sticks and stones, which were even worse than just fighting with their bare hands.

They each had fangs, and their eyes sparkled with a bloody, terrifying aura. Just standing there, they gave people a sense of extreme fear — these were Silver-Rank Goblins!

Even among the widespread monster populations across the continent, they were extremely rare individuals!

Yet, the civilians on the scene were astonished to find: one, two, three, four... more than dozens of Silver-Rank Goblins appeared!

The civilians didn't understand the difference between bronze and silver Extraordinary, but they could feel the aura these monsters were giving off. Each one was similar to the aura of the previous Silver-Rank cleric, Vikalina, and Lord Sivis — it was clearly a sign of power!

Even more terrifying was the fact that seven huge Stone Demons stood there — each one as tall as a multi-story palace. Their appearance immediately blocked the full moon in the night sky.

In front of them, that so-called wave of Blood Servants looked like a small stream that barely covered their ankles — it was extremely ridiculous.

Just a few steps from these Stone Demons, the ground shook violently.

After the light faded, two more massive creatures appeared: one looked similar to the previous Goblins, but had a scar on its face and a more muscular build — it was clearly a leader-like figure.

The other was completely different from the Stone Demons — it was made entirely of crystal, reflecting the moonlight and shining brilliantly. Its height was even taller than the regular Stone Demons, and the Blood Servants at its feet were as small as dust.

After the monsters appeared, they were not as violent as usual. Instead, they stood completely still, cold and indifferent — like statues.

But the aura they gave off couldn't be faked.

The wave of Blood Servants in the distance paused for a few seconds.

They still had some animal instincts and instincts. They could feel something in front of them...

Something that must not be touched!

Going there would mean certain death!

In an instant, all the civilians were shocked, even Vikalina and Reina were stunned.
