"You four, in my eyes, represent the leaders of my colonies. First, there is Gool. You said that the goblins of Oga have no leader... that he was killed in the process. That is fine. Since you have contributed the most in their retrieval, you will earn the title of leader of the goblin race for now." Midas said.
Gool nodded, a serious look on his face. He didn’t know why Midas had brought them all out here, but he wasn’t doubtful.
"Bzzrt! You obviously rule the mosquitoes. Dorhal, the orcs are under your command. And finally, what is your na, troll king?" Midas asked at the end.
As he called out Bzzrt and Dorhal, they nodded in approval of their titles.
"My na is Uranus, lord Midas," Uranus said calmly. "I am no king. Before you, I stand as nothing more than a servant." He bowed.
’Hmm? This troll already has a high admiration for . Just what did Dorhal do for this outco?’ Midas thought for a split second.
"Uranus, huh?" Midas replied.
After this, Uranus went ahead and explained his origin and power to Midas, along with a few other bits of information on the troll race as a whole.
"Hmm... a primordial gave you a prophecy, huh? That’s odd. And the description ets Dorhal as well... too specific to be a coincidence, I think." Midas said.
This fact confused him quite a lot. It was fear-inducing, even.
’If there is a primordial who can predict the future... why did he go after ? Or did it not know that Dorhal would be under ? Hmm... It’s concerning.’ Midas mused. But there really wasn’t much he could do at the present mont.
"Uranus, you are the leader of the trolls. And as such, you must contribute to my task here." Midas replied sternly.
Uranus nodded, causing Midas to smile.
"Good! It’s settled now. Gool, get over here! You won’t be participating, im afraid." Midas said, nodding Gool toward his direction.
As soon as these words left Midas’s lips, Bzzrt, Dorhal, and Uranus cast glances at each other. They had serious looks on their faces.
To them, it was clear what Midas’s intentions were.
Gool seed oblivious, though.
"What? I’ll miss out, huh?" Gool said as he walked toward Midas, "Trust , pin against these three doofus’s and I can win at almost any trail! A ga of wits? A test of knowledge and skills? I think I am being underestimated!" He shouted as he arrived beside Midas.
"Hmph!" Midas chukcled, "It will be a three-way one-versus-one match. Do you want to join?" He asked the goblin with a smug smile.
"W-what!?" Gool jumped with surprise, "Nevermind! These fools can duel it out. I wouldn’t want to waste my skills on them anyway..." He said, closing his eyes and looking to the side.
Midas chuckled at Gool’s reaction.
The other three, however, fortified their minds. It was only a suspicion before, but now, their suspicions had been verified.
Above that, however, they were being tested by their master.
’I...’ Uranus thought, ’Stand no chance against lord Dorhal. But still, I must do my best in front of lord Midas!’ He thought with bravery.
’I can not show any weakness in front of my liege!’ Dorhal roared inwardly.
’I must win... I must look powerful before the master.’ Bzzrt thought to himself, preparing for action.
’Scan. Open up all passive and active skills as well.’ Midas said, glancing at all three competitors.

’Dorhal and Bzzrt are definitely the two competing for first place. But Uranus is not weak either. Kingdom Core System, explain these abilities.’

[Skills]
> Iron Drill [Description]: Iron Drill is a powerful attack used by elite Giant Mosquitoes. It is learned naturally, and allows the Giant Mosquito to spin its body during flight, creating a powerful drill out of its sharp and sturdy mandibles. The kinetic energy leads to the mandible becoming much denser and far more unbreakable during impact.
> Fla Blast [Description]: Fla Blast is a powerful attack used by Aspect Beast-tier creatures. It is an ability that awakens during the Aspect Beast stage of a creature’s rank and allows the user to conjure a large blast of fla toward any direction.
---
’Amazing... I never knew Bzzrt had such skills. Iron Drill sounds strong... but Fla Blast. It feels like it’s out of the blue. But... does the Aspect Beast rank have everything to do with it? That seems to be the case. It’s a clue, but it still doesn’t tell what the Aspect Rank does exactly.’ Midas thought his curiosity had increased even more now.
[Uranus]
[Skills]
> Power Fold [Description]: Power Fold is a grand boon bestowed by a primordial being. It allows the user to absorb their enemy’s attack power and ntal power and add it to their own for a massive boost. The ntal energy absorption capacity is that of one’s own ntal energy, while the physical energy absorption is several-fold above the user’s.
> Power Sword [Description]: Power Sword is an ability linked with Power Fold. It allows the user of Power Fold to conjure a sword created from one’s own energy. The stolen energy of the enemy can be absorbed to increase the strength of the Power Sword.
> Stone Throw [Description]: Stone Throw is a powerful attack used by Aspect Beast-tier creatures. It is an ability that awakens during the Aspect Beast stage of a creature’s rank and allows the user to conjure a large boulder in their hands. The user may then choose to throw the boulder.
---
’Amazing... Power Fold seems undefeatable. I wonder how Dorhal overca it. I don’t doubt him, but I’m still curious.’ Midas thought, ’Apart from the first two abilities, the third one is quite random, just like the first ability granted via the Aspect tier. Is it the case that the Aspect tier grants random powers? No... it has to be sothing more specific than that.’
