Norn opened the system interfaced and choose the subordinate management function.
Loyalty metrics:
100( ready to die for the group) awarded a random weapon card
99-75( family) awarded ability awakening potion
74-50( newbie with some loyalty)
49-1( spy,traitor and enemy)
A blue holographic screen displays the profiles of his three subordinates.
Norn zoomed in on Beardy's profile. The picture showed a man with a man with thick beard and eyes that held a heart of steel. The description read: "Ruthless to enemy, handles disciplinary matters of the mafia gang...with enthusiasm."
Loyalty: 100
Next,Fatty. The profile picture was a blurry snapshot of a fat man with double chin,a stained t-shirt, and a surprisingly cheerful grin. The description:"possessed an uncanny ability to disarm tense situations with humor and the promised of snacks. Loyal to a fault...and to junk foods."
Loyalty: 100
Finally,Baldy. The photo showed a man with a bald shaved head with gentle eyes and callous hands.Fiercely protective of his friends and family.
Loyalty: 100
The data shown comforted the uneasiness on Norn's heart. I'm not alone in this new world with them I know that I would be able to endure every challenges that comes our way. And he as their young master in this unknown new world would protect them just as they would protect me too.

--------------------------------------------------------
Norn stood up on the trio handling them vials of ability awakening potion that guaranteed to unlock latent magical or physical abilities.
Beardy, without hesitation took the potion on Norn's hand,it contained a thick,grey liquid. He uncorked it and downed down the potion in a single gulp. A cough escaped from his mouth followed by a billow of grey smoke that erupted from pores,momentarily obscuring him entirely. When the smoke cleared,beardy remain unchanged, but a faint,smoky haze clung to him swirling and dissipating around his body like a phantom cloak.
Norn appraised Beardy's stats.

Beardy,noded and focused. Slowly he conjured a wisps of smoke,twisting and solidifying on his hands,the smoke hardened into a shimmering grey sword. It look fragile and powerful at the same time.
With a swift,confident motion,Beardy swung his smoky grey sword at the nearby tree. The blade sliced cleanly through the thick tree trunk,splitting it in half with a crack that echoed through the forest.
The sword quietly dissolved back into smoke,then disappearing into thin air.
Fatty smiled,"that was incredible..."
Fatty stepped forward took the vial eyes gleaming with curiosity. He too drank it without delay. A wave of heat washed over him, followed by a strange tingling sensation.

Norn pointed on a giant Boulder nearby.
Fatty tried lifting the giant boulder,grunting with effort but it wouldn't budge. Then he tried picturing it as light as a feather,to his surprise he effortlessly lifted it with one hand. It felt like he was holding a puff of air.
"That was amazing."in fatty inner mind.
