Shocking Them Again And Again

"Damn! How come you already have part of our people here?" Matte couldn't help but ask. And the others looked at me in a weird way.

"I got them from Toranks," I shrugged, "aside from training with my forces, I didn't force them to fight for me. I just asked them and those willing joined my forces out there to invade other worlds."

I did tell a little lie, but it was worth it. Seeing a large number of these Hescos here doing nothing but training with my newly arrived races made me look cool.

"The Toranks? You don't possibly mean the same Toranks in the universe, right?" another paragon asked, while Matte kept speaking to himself about something I couldn't get.

"Sure, they are my allied race," I said it like it was something simple. Yet from the reaction on their faces I knew my words left the desired impression over them.
