Sovereign of the Firmaments

<Sovereign System? Never heard of it>

However, the beast tamer system acted aloof as it replied to the Sovereign system.

<You are just an Advanced tier system. So, of course, you don't know me, a special tier system>

<Special tier? Stop joking. If you are really a special tier, then you can easily intimidate me with your aura to make me acknowledge you as my master>

<Th…this…I don't know>

<See, you are not a special tier and I can tell you are just a Basic tier system that knows nothing>

<...>

In the end, the Sovereign system didn't know how to reply because other than the classification of the systems and its own tier, the system didn't know anything about other systems.

'...'

As for Lucas and Beck, they were speechless at the conversation of the two systems that behaved like nothing but children.

"Little system, why don't you reveal your full presence to the beast tamer system."

Nevertheless, after thinking for a moment, Lucas asked the system in his head to exude its full presence.

Lucas knew that his system had a mentality of a three-year kid and how did he know that?

Of course, in the beginning, when he said that he didn't pay attention to the system, it nearly cried and was easily intimidated by him. So, Lucas thought, maybe the system was still in the learning phase or whatsoever.

<Okay>

The Sovereign system followed Lucas' orders; however, Lucas and Beck were unable to sense anything.

However, it was not the same for the beast tamer system.

<Stop releasing your presence. I am suffocating.>

Finally, the beast tamer system shouted as it asked the sovereign system to stop releasing its presence.

'So, presence is nothing but the aura that the beast tamer system mentioned…Haha.'

Lucas silently noted down it in his head.

<Is it really that scary?>

The sovereign system asked the beast tamer system in an innocent voice.

<...>

This time, it was the beast tamer system's turn to become speechless.

<Fine…you are a special tier system.>

Nevertheless, the beast tamer system agreed that the sovereign system s a special tier system and continued saying,

<As long as you make me your primary follower, I can swear my allegiance to you>

<What?>

'What?'

Not only the sovereign system but even Lucas and Beck were shocked by the sudden change in the attitude of the beast tamer system.

Moreover, there was another reason why they were shocked because earlier, the sovereign system mentioned that one system can't swear its allegiance to other systems.

Because most of the system host's didn't bother to swear allegiance because they would only focus on killing the other hosts to devourer their systems to upgrade their own systems.

<Is it possible?>

The same question that Lucas and Beck had in their heads was asked by the Sovereign system.

<I don't know why you don't have the knowledge that  special tier systems have, let me tell you, it is possible and moreover, for the systems with the intermediate tier or above, they can swear their allegiance to one special tier system>

<Only the special tier system can have the privilege to take the other systems as their followers>

The beast tamer system's words made everyone reveal a smile on their faces.

"I have a doubt. What is this primary follower thing? Are there types among the followers?"

The sovereign system was already excited that he would be getting a system follower and it was ready to ask the beast tamer system to swear its allegiance; however, Lucas stopped it as he asked a question to the beast tamer system.

<Oh. Looks like the host has some brains compared to the brainless system>

The beast tamer system chuckled as it continued, 

<A special tier system can accept other systems as three categories. Primary follower, secondary follower and the lowest one will be slave, who had to do anything the special tier system asks it to do without questioning back.>

<A primary follower will have a lot of flexibility in doing the things it likes and whenever that system dissatisfy with its master system, it could pay something to the special tier system and remove its 'Primary follower' status>

<A secondary follower will have less flexibility compared to the secondary follower but much better than a Slave follower. If it wants to leave the special tier system, then it has to pay a huge price>

<So, here ends the explanation>

The beast tamer system gave a lengthy explanation that made Lucas and others a little surprised as they nodded their heads.

"Okay then. Swear your allegiance to my system."

Nodding his head, Lucas asked the beast tamer system to swear its allegiance.

<Hostess, even though I want to swear the allegiance, I can't do it without your permission  because once we swear our allegiance to them, we have to follow his orders and help him become stronger>

However, the beast tamer system didn't swear its allegiance to the sovereign system directly; instead, it asked for permission from Beck because she is the system host.

"I am here to serve the young master. So, it's fine to swear allegiance to the young master's system."

Beck gave permission to the beast tamer system with a bright smile on her face.

<Fine then.>

The beast tamer system didn't waste much time as some small light particles came out of Beck and materialized into a small girl with a long wooden staff in her hand.

She was around 10 centimeters and she looked transparent as though she was just an holographic projection.

<I, the beast tamer system, using my status as an advanced system, is acknowledging the special tier system named 'Sovereign system' as my master to become its primary follower>

Soon, a light ray came out of the wooden staff and entered Lucas' head in less than a second.

However, Lucas didn't feel any pain and looked at the beast tamer system's materialized form with a curious look on his face.

'Swoosh'

'Aargh'

At the same time, a light beam came out of Lucas's head and entered into the little girl, making her groan in pain.
