It was a simple matter for Colin to add the two high orcs to his family, but Skorn was a different matter. To make him apart of the family, he would need to be given the title of a knight, which came with a lot of responsibility and a more elaborate recruitment.
"I swear on my name, Skorn, to serve the Dunamis family to my dying breath. To never betray them to the enemy. To never falter in combat. I give my life to the family." Skorn swore his oath infront of the entire family, in the hotel courtyard.
[Do you accept 'Skorn' as your knight?]
A system message appeared infront of Colin.
"Yes." Colin said, as he stood above Skorn and a red rune glowed under his and Skorn's feet.
[A knight of Dunamis has been selected.]
[A portion of the family's authority has been granted to the 'knight of Dunamis', Skorn.]

'He has less demonic energy than me despite the fact that he's eight levels above me. Atleast now I know how I won that fight. And what's up with all these titles.' Colin thought
"Congrats, you are now a member of the Dunamis family." Colin said
"Yes well, this family leaves much to be desired." Skorn said, looking around at the members of the family with a disdainful look on his face, making everyone glare at him.
[What are you doing? Are you trying to make everyone hate you?] Colin asked, via [Telepathy]
"I am just being honest my liege. Everyone here is too weak, which is understandable considering that they have only been demons for a month." Skorn said and Colin's eyelids twitched when he didn't respond using [Telepathy].
"Are you belittling us, you green bastard?" Paul said while gritting his teeth, which has transformed into fangs and his eyes glowed. Far from being offended by Paul's statement, Skorn smiled widely.
"You have a pretty good attitude. Gothmog!!!" Skorn shouted and one of the tier 4 orcs stepped up. He took a fighting stance, holding his broadsword and Paul smiled, understanding the meaning of the high orcs actions. He fully transformed into his werewolf form and lunged at Gothmog.
Name: Gothmog
Title: []
Race: High Orc
Sin: [Weakness]
Level: 15/20( 144,120 exp to next level)
LP: 640/640

Paul lunged at Gothmog and the high orc roared, before his blade was covered in a red glow and he swung his blade, meeting Paul's claws. His claws were covered in a thick blue glow as he activated the trait, [Aura Armament], giving his body extra protection. The trait was derived by accident when he was battling in the mountains, and decided to try and use his aura as armour, while the [Last Stand] skill was activated. The result was a thick, blue substance created out of his aura.
The clash sent waves of demonic energy flying in all directions, and everyone quickly put some distance between the two. Gothmog sent a kick to Paul's chin, kicking his head back before he spun around swinging his blade with the attack. Paul, sensed the danger, jumped into the air and swung his hands, sending ten lines of red energy in the high orc's direction. Gothmog changed the trajectory of the blade, and destroyed the lines of energy, before swinging his blade, releasing a wide arc of lightning. The arc of lightning spread wide infront of the orc, electrocuting the still airborne werewolf, but the lightning didn't stop there. It continued to spread towards the crowd and Colin quickly used his [Darkness Affinity] to protect the crowd.
"The werewolf is stronger than I thought." Skorn said, when Paul got back to his feet and charged once more. He opened his mouth wide, and a blast of pure demonic energy escaped, faced with the unexpected attack, the orc was forced to block with his broadsword. Paul jumped into the air, and the [Aura Arnament] covered his claws as he sent out another attack, this time, the lines were thicker. Unable to block with his blade in time, the lines dug into his chest, drawing large amounts of blood. Paul fell on the wounded orc and held him against the ground, while baring his fangs threateningly.
"Satisfied?" Colin asked Skorn, his eyes glowing furiously and Skorn sighed
"No, Askalad, as weak and foolish as he is, still possesses over a hundred tier 4 in his army. And it doesn't end with you killing him, your family needs to be prepared. And they are not strong enough to survive, much less win, this battle." Skorn said
"Which is why you are going to tell us everything you know about Askalad. I admit that my family is lacking in raw power, but I never intended to win this battle through raw power, but intellect and ingenuity." Colin said.
