Chapter 359: Lords of Horror

"You want us to help you forge Rune Knights, Boss?" A confused expression crossed Jormungandr's face as he spoke. There was no doubt that Rune Knights were helpful, but they weren't exceptional. Given the powers and abilities normal warriors of the Xoas Kingdom gained through the Demon Soul Master System and their bloodlines, Rune Knights would barely make a difference in the kingdom's overall power. The only result of such a plan would be a waste of resources and time.
