Damon looked at the woman, who was the only one who had actually signed a contract with him. Not so surprisingly, she did not seem that indignant anymore. In fact, she was quick to bow her head and pay her respects.
"Master, congratulations on defeating the broodmother."
"Thanks." Damon chuckled. He was never one to hold petty grudges, so he didn’t care too much about the attitude change. The woman was practical at least, which only increased her value.
"Well, if there isn’t anything else. We should be making a move now. There is somewhere we need to be." Damon spoke to her and then started activating a Blood Gate to the Dune of Graves.
"Wait, vampire!" One of the others called out hurriedly after Damon. The man then quickly changed his tone and the way he addressed Damon.
"Master, please forgive my insolence. I wish that..." He paused and then looked at the others. "We wish that you would accept us as well as your followers."
Damon’s interest was piqued. "Oh? And here I thought all of you were too proud to bow your heads to a ’bloodsucker.’ What changed?"
The man who had spoken swallowed hard. His earlier arrogance was nowhere to be found. Behind him, the remaining Beast Lords exchanged uneasy glances, but none of them dared to speak.
The devastation around them told the story well enough. The broodmother was dead. Their armies, wiped out. What more could they possibly do here? They would only be open and vulnerable for others to slaughter them.
In fact, if this man wanted, he could easily finish them all off right this second. There was no point in pretending anymore.
The man lowered his head. "We were wrong. We should have never doubted your prowess."
Damon did not bother to discuss this matter anymore. It looked like they wanted the same chance he had offered the Venom Sigil, and he had no problem in giving it to them. Niera City could always use their Beast Taming skills. In fact, if they could again repeat what they had created here, it would be even better.
Damon sent the same slave contracts to everyone in front of him. "For now, I am only offering this contract, but if you show potential, then I am willing to upgrade the contract to a follower contract that would include a lot more benefits." He added curtly.
He was bringing in a lot of new people to Niera City at the same time. This could be dangerous in certain ways. He really did not have the time at the moment to deal with backstabbing and spies and such, and this was the simplest and crudest way to rule out all such nonsense.
"What is your name, by the way?" He asked the woman.
