And so, about a quarter of an hour later.
Taylor, along with team captains Gavin Sullivan and three others, once again gathered in the guest hall of the Lord’s Mansion.
Stella Clark and Serena Clark, both dressed in black, stood on either side of Leo Ray.
“Let me introduce you to our two new colleagues, both Tier 3 Assassins, currently serving as my bodyguards,” said Leo Ray. With a gesture to the sisters, he continued, “Go ahead and say hello, we’re all family here.”
As Serena stepped forward and said respectfully, “Greetings, seniors. My name is Serena, and I’m delighted to work with you all!”
On the other hand, in front of everyone’s gaze, the shy red-faced Stella timidly said, “Hello, everyone. My name is Stella…”
Noticing this, Leo Ray shook his head with a smile.
It seemed that although the two girls were twins, their personalities differed – one extroverted and the other introverted.
At the same time, apart from Taylor, the other team captains had the same reaction as Gavin Sullivan.
Amazed and full of admiration, they looked up to Leo Ray even more.
To have two powerful Tier 3 women swearing loyalty at the same time, the Lord was really formidable!
Stella and Serena naturally focused their attention on Taylor; their Assassins’ intuition told them that this man was dangerous!
However, the one more impressive was the Lord who made such powerful people submit!
With that thought in mind, the sisters also cast admiring glances at Leo Ray.
Lastly, Taylor, with the Dragon Slash Sword on his back, still grateful, looked at Leo Ray, apparently still not over the surprise from yesterday.
On the other hand, feeling everyone’s burning gazes, Leo Ray felt a little uncomfortable, so he cleared his throat and handed out today’s assignments.
The task for the four Tier 1 teams remained the same – to clear the trees within the territory.
Taylor’s task was to go hunting and try to bring back more meat, which was currently quite valuable at the Trading Center.
As for Stella and Serena, needless to say, they followed Leo Ray, always on standby.
And so, after everyone received their orders and left, Leo Ray took the twins with him to familiarize them with the surrounding environment and terrain of the territory.
After all, the protection period would last only three days.
By then, security for the territory and themselves, undoubtedly, would be a significant challenge.
Leaving the Mansion, recalling the attributes he had just checked, Leo Ray casually asked, “Oh, Serena, I guess since your weapons are different, your specialty is different as well, right?”
“Exactly, my Lord has a keen insight,” Serena immediately responded respectfully. “Though my sister and I are both Assassins, I specialize in long-range sniping, while my sister excels at close-range assassinations.”
Saying this, Serena took the crossbow off her back, while Stella also removed the short sword from her waist.
Then, the identical twin girls exchanged awkward glances.
Afterward, Serena said somewhat sheepishly, “I apologize, my Lord, but we just graduated from Assassin Academy and could only afford the cheapest Tier 1 Weapons, which might hold the team back…”
However, Leo Ray waved his hand, clearly uninterested.
That’s because, next to the weapons in the hands of the two, he unexpectedly saw the words “Upgradeable”!
Good grief! The equipment that came with the subordinates could also be upgraded?
“Serena, Stella, give me your weapons.” Filled with excitement, Leo Ray immediately collected the sisters’ weapons.
Heading straight to the storage space, Leo Ray threw the short sword and crossbow right in.
Invoke the talent, upgrade!
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 1 Weapon: Wooden Crossbow’ has been upgraded to ‘Tier 3 Weapon: Cloud Piercing Crossbow’!]
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 1 Weapon: Iron Short Sword’ has been upgraded to ‘Tier 3 Weapon: Windfall Sword’!]
“Both weapons are now qualitatively changed? Not bad at all!”
Overjoyed, Leo Ray thought for a moment, and the two brand new weapons instantly reappeared in front of him.
[Name: Cloud Piercing Crossbow]
[Tier: Tier 3 • Excellent (Blue)]
[Attack Power: ★★★★]
[Additional Effect: Meteor (Increases shooting speed by 20%, increases physical penetration by 20%)]
[Notes: Made from century-old Elf Wood and the tendons of the Tier 3 Demon Beast, Ink Bull Rhodalite Horse, it is sturdy, durable, and a masterpiece among crossbows.]
[Name: Windfall Sword]
[Tier: Tier 3 • Excellent (Blue)]
[Attack Power: ★★★]
[Additional Effect: Agility (Increases mobility by 20%, inflicts a bleeding effect)]
[Notes: The sword’s blade is made entirely of Windfall Steel, lightweight and compact. Due to the inherent characteristics of Windfall Steel, wounds inflicted by this sword will heal much slower.]
Seeing the two ordinary Tier 1 weapons transformed into high-quality gear with just the blink of an eye, the twin girls were shocked and in disbelief.’
Looking at each other, both Stella and Serena had bewildered expressions on their faces, as if thinking, “Who am I? Where am I? What just happened?”
“Take them and consider them as my welcome gifts for you.” With a slight smile, Leo Ray handed the upgraded Tier 3 weapons back to Stella and Serena.
“Thank you, my Lord! We are willing to give our all for my Lord!”
“Thank you, my Lord! We are willing to give our all for my Lord!”
Hearing this, the twin sisters finally came to their senses. They were both surprised and overjoyed, quickly kneeling on one knee and simultaneously expressing their loyalty.
Without a doubt, with the help of advanced weapons, their combat power would reach a new level!
That said, although they didn’t know how Leo Ray managed to perform such a magical feat, the dazzling new weapons in their hands proved that it wasn’t just a dream!
Such advanced weapons would have been out of their reach even if they had saved up several years’ worth of salary without spending a penny.
But now, having just been summoned here, and without having made any contributions yet, they were presented with these gifts, which made them feel overwhelmed by the favor!
With gratitude brimming in their eyes, Stella and Serena tightly held the weapons Leo Ray handed them, moved almost to tears.
Even extroverted Serena didn’t know what to say for a moment and had to perform another ritual with her sister, promising their loyalty to Leo Ray.
Unquestionably, if loyalty had no upper limit, the value of these twin sisters would have at least risen by another 50 points!
