These Familiars Are Strange

It was clear that everyone wasn't happy with these words that he said and for good reason.

After all, in their eyes, he was nothing more than a rookie that had just come to the Abyss this year.

He was someone that was still wet behind the ears and he was complaining about his position. He really didn't have a right to say anything like this as far as they were concerned as veterans of the Abyss.

But since Yun Tian didn't say anything, none of them said anything.

They just waited to see how he would deal with this arrogant young master.

Only in the end, they didn't see what they thought they would see.

With his arms crossed, Yun Tian narrowed his eyes to look at the arrogant young master before saying, "Alright, what kind of power do you have that you think that you can stand on the front lines. As long as you can convince me of this, I'll change your position."

This was certainly the last thing that anyone expected to hear.

There were many strange looks that were cast in Yun Tian's direction because he said this, but Yun Tian didn't seem to care as he kept looking at the arrogant young master while waiting for a response.

Even the arrogant young master was taken aback when he heard this, so he wasn't able to respond right away.

But when he came back to his senses, he didn't hesitate to summon out his familiar.

Surprisingly, the arrogant young master didn't have a familiar that was the same size as his ego. Rather, his familiar was actually quite small for someone with his level of confidence.

However, it wasn't as if the size of one's familiar determined the power that they possessed.

Even if a familiar was small, that didn't mean that it couldn't be powerful.

The familiar that this arrogant young master summoned out was actually a moth.

It was a moth that was around the same size as one's palm.

Yun Tian raised a brow after seeing the moth that the arrogant young master summoned out, but he didn't say anything as he waited for a demonstration.

Since the arrogant young master was so confident in his own power, he had to have a reason for being this confident. All that was left was seeing what kind of power this moth had.

The arrogant young master recognized this as well, so he flicked his finger and sent the moth into the air. The moth didn't really act like it was his familiar, it acted more like it had no choice but to do what it was telling it, almost like a slave.

But the moment that the moth took flight into the air, it suddenly flapped its wings and released its scales.

In no time at all, the arrogant young master disappeared from everyone's sight.

At the same time, there were different things that appeared all around them.

These were Abyss Demons that had suddenly appeared and it seemed like they were aggressive. It didn't take long for the Abyss Demons to suddenly charge at everyone that was here.

Though I could notice that there were more Abyss Demons coming at me than anyone else.

"Should I just blow through his smoke and mirrors?" I asked myself before deciding against it.

Yun Tian was the one that took action in the end by suddenly raising his hand towards the closest Abyss Demon charging at him, but he didn't attack that Abyss Demon in the end.

Instead, all he did was give a simple wave of his hand.

That generated a large gust of air that blew away the Abyss Demon.

This wasn't an exaggeration, the Abyss Demon was really blown away as if it was made of dust. But in reality, it wasn't dust that this Abyss Demon was made of, rather it was made of moth scales.

It seemed that the scales of the arrogant young master's moth could create illusions in an isolated area.

Based on the way that the illusion broke after the scales were scattered, it seemed to be some kind of power that was related to reflecting light to create these illusions.

It was surprising to see that the arrogant young master would have an ability like this.

But it was also surprising to see how powerful Yun Tian was. It wasn't that he was just strong physically, he also had very sharp eyes that he was able to see through the illusion with a single glance.

He knew exactly what to do to remove the illusion.

Despite his…sloppy and friendly appearance, he was actually quite the sharp person.

Of course, he never would have been able to become a sergeant of the Abyss Guards if he didn't have these abilities. This should be considered the bare minimum that he had to become a sergeant.

After releasing the illusion, Yun Tian gave a slight nod before saying, "Alright, this can be used."

Turning back to the map, Yun Tian erased a mark that had previously represented where the arrogant young master's group would have gone and put a new mark down on the map to signify their new position.

The arrogant young master still didn't seem that happy about this, but it was at least better than before.

Even if he wasn't happy with this, he still knew his limits at the very least.

After all, even a fool would be able to tell that this was really the best position for him considering the power that he demonstrated. This was a place where he would be safe from the fighting and would be able to support everyone.

Since he got what he wanted, even if it wasn't the perfect compromise, it was enough for him for now.

Everyone seemed to have some misgivings about this, but they also recognized the power of his ability.

The arrogant young master even let this go to his head as he said, "Everyone will bow before the power of this Jin Long."

That was the first time that I learned his name.
