"What is- " Damion saw a small figure with two pairs of wings standing before him.
"⊣∷ᒷᔑℸ ̣ ᒷ∷ ⍑ᒷᔑꖎ" Damion's body started to feel less heavy with fatigue from the batle. At the weird words of the small figure, Damion's injuries had seemed to heal.
"Now your injuries are-" before the mysterious creature had finished its sentence the Hobgoblin who was surprised from another enemy violently smashed its club into the creature.
[Shadow step activated]
Damion grabbed the creature before the club had gotten too close.
"Uwah... That almost hit me"
Putting down the creature, Damion needed to finish klling the hobgoblin.
[Poison strike activated]
[Posion strike activated]
The Hobgoblin had finally fallen after two more strikes of poison
"It seems that you have finished it" The small figure began talking again to Damion
"Who are you?" Damion though grateful for saving his life, was suspicious of the creature.
"Ah, it seems I have a lot to explain"
The creature had the form of an eyeball with four wings.
"So you see that runestone right?"
Damion turned to the broken runestone on the ground and picked it up.
"I was sealed in there by your father"
"My father! How do you know him?" Damion shaked the eyeball.
After Damion had put down the creature. Damion listened to what the creature had to say.
"So your saying .... Your a familliar of my father and you were sealed in that runestone by him" Damion looked at the eyeball who was flying around the place.
Damion did not know much about his parents though Uncle Henry said that his father was a very experienced adventurer who was a Silver rank 1st tier back in the Kingdom of Aislentor. So he really wanted to know anything about his parents.
"Yes, I was and I am now your familliar or personal servant, Alvollas"
Damion's thought were in a mess, it was late afternoon. He was probably tired from all the fighting.

"Where are you going? Master Damion" Alvollas following behind Damion
"Im going home to rest"
"Aren't you going to check your status scroll?"
Damion stopped in his tracks, he had fought a group of goblins. His level must have increased tremendously!
"Status Scroll open"
Class: None Level: 20 Vitality: 42 Strength: 49 Agility: 50 Defense: 45 Magic: 43
[Skill acquired: Appraise]
[Skill acquired: Greater Strength]
"Holy shit"
Damion was shocked by the amount of levels he had jumped. Damion hunted goblins and wolves before but they were low-leveled monsters about level 2 or 4. The goblin group he just faced had levels of 7 and the highest 16 though it made sense that his level increased by 10, he could not contain his composure
"Quite the impressive level for a 17 year old" Alvollas looking at Damion.
"Hey Alvollas, did my parents leave anything for me?"
"Now that you mention it"
Alvollas's eye suddenly glowed brightly.
"Magic Storage open"
A black dagger, damacus blade and leather armour appeared from nowhere.
"Your father had left these for you" Alvollas said befor returning back into Damion's body
Damion picked up the equipment and stored it in his bag. Damion looked at his status scroll while heading home
[Legendary Familliar]
[Level 20]
[Alvollas]
A royal mind demon whose powers are reflected by the master. Is able to help one to read opponent's attacks in battle. Gives one telekinesis and other mind powers like mind-manipulation.
"Able to read attacks... Seems like a cheat ability"
Uncle Henro was outside the house, walking back and forth then saw Damion walking to him covered in blood.
"Are you okay? You took so long to get back! Your covered in blood, are you injured?" Uncle Henro was worried sick for his only nephew that his brother had left to take care of.
"I'm fine Uncle Henro, I got those two rabbits you wanted."
Uncle Henro checked Damion to be sure of any injuries before both of them went back inside.
"Damion go wash up while I make dinner."
"Okay, I will" Damion smelled awful from all the goblin blood stained on his clothes
After washing up, Damion had went down for dinner.
"Here Damion have some more stew, I bet you are tired from getting the rabbits for me"
"Hey Uncle Henro" Damion had a serious face on
"Can I become an adventurer?"
Uncle Henro almost dropped the pot of stew.
"So is that a no" Damion judged from his uncle's face of surprise.
"Damion, you want to become an adventurer?" Uncle Henro also put up a serious face
"Yes I do, Uncle Henro"
"You know its dangerous work being an adventurer, i'm not saying I object you being an adventurer. Your father wanted me to keep you safe from danger and what your asking is the exact opposite of danger right now."
Damion stared at Uncle Henro
"So your not saying no?
"Yes, I'm not saying no. Your father asked me to keep you safe but he also said if you wanted to become an adventurer, I would need to teach you the basics first."
Damion could not control his joy, he hugged Uncle Henro tightly. Uncle Henro surprised by his nephew's hug, laughed heartily. Uncle Henro was slightly worried about having his nephew having a journey by himself later on and there would be nothing stopping him, so the only thing he can do was prepare him with all the knowledge he knew.
"I'll train you in what you need to know about monsters and herbs, starting tomorrow."
"Yes, Master Henro!"
"Aha! Master Henro, no need to call me that Damion!" Uncle Henro was a bit embarrassed being called master as he was only a Copper rank 2nd tier
