“… I feel left out.” Xiodar sighed in his throne.
Jael just looked at him. “I don’t know what you are talking about. You gave everyone a job to do. And stop petting that thing!” Vampire referred to the giant egg on Demon lord’s laps. They found it inside the leviathan.
“You can’t tell me what to do! And didn’t I give you a job?”
“Did you?”
“I don’t remember.”
“Then me neither.”
“…” They started to stare at each other. Silence filled the room, until someone entered.
Bob arrived with group of rapkeys carrying big wooden boxes. “How did you convinced Kokmal to give you these stuff?” Ghoul asked. A lot of these things could kill him three times before even opening a box.
Demon lord stopped the staring contest with the Vampire and answered. “I told you. I gave him some technical schemes from the internet.” In return Kokmal gave him some inventions, magic stones and the ritual to resurrect faster.
In the same way he traded some adult videos for magic spells with Dourin. “Well, good job! You can all have sushi for a dinner!”
“That’s the only thing we are eating since last month…”
“Well that big fish is still taking a half of Pendragon’s storage!”
Jael pointed at him. “Just give them that egg!”
Xiodar laid his hands at egg as he was covering it’s ears. “If you talk like this, it will hate you when it hatches.”
Bloodfang just shook his head. “It is probably dead right now!” He took the egg and held it by his ear. *WHROOAARR!* ”Okay, never mind.” He thrown the egg back to Xiodar. That egg was much too lively.
“Are you sure this is safe?” Bob asked.
“It won’t be worse than me.” Xiodar said with a cheerful smile. Nobody could argue with that.
*BAM* Zelenia entered with while slamming the doors. “Why you send me there if you knew I hate that b*tch!” She started complaining right away.
“Because it’s funny? Now hand over the porn book.” Demon lord reached his hand to her. But Zelenia thrown her spell book in his face.
“Stop calling my grimoire like that!” She shouted just to be ignored. Xiodar opened it and the castle’s system started copying the spells. Pendragon could also be used as a giant magical staff. Of course it’s useless if user doesn’t have affinities.
But some spells are still usable without them. “Catch!” Demon lord thrown the book to original owner. “Now let’s see the spying spell.” The screen appeared showing the outside of the castle. “Find: Hero.” Xiodar said. “Hey! Why there are 3 results?”
Jael frowned at his words. “That much?” He thought for a while. “I remember that there were once two at the same time.”
“Yeah. But they were twins.” Zelenia commented. “Just show them.” She said to Xiodar. Giant holographic screen appeared in the middle of the room. It was showing the boy fighting with a bear in some kind of forest.
“Well. They summoned an Asian. So I won’t win by a starcraft’s match.” He changed the view. Now they see a girl reading a book. Xiodar thought for a while. “7 out of 10.”
“Can you believe him.” Zelenia asked Jael.
“No.” Vampire shook his head. “She is barely a 6.” That sentence gain him a punch in the face.
The view changed again. Now it’s showing a random guy exterminating innocent goblins with various spells. “How much affinities this guy have?” Bob pointed out.
“Too much.” Succubus said while wondering. “But he is using a lot of spirits. That is weird.”
Xiodar wondered. “Having many spirits is weird?”
“When they are all in low ranks? Yes.”
“How he get that many in the first place.”
“Probably summoning circle. It can contract you to a low rank spirit.”
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
“Then why demons don’t use that?”
“Because we are half-spirits already? Besides making a contract requires a blood.” When she said it she
froze. Something just came to her.
“Draw me one summoning circle!” Xiodar ordered.

“*RRRAAAWR*”
“WHY!WON’T!YOU!DIE!” Jack shouted as he stabbed the bear 47th time. Finally the monster stopped
moving. Taking the magic stone took almost 5 minutes. ‘My nails are sharper than this sword.’
It was the second bear he killed. He hoped that this time his spirit will change. “Eat this Reuel.” He said to the cat spirit. Then its body started to glow. “Finally! [Analysis]!”

“Now we can talk!” Jack shouted. *Rustle* ‘Huh?’ He turned around to see another bear has come. “Bring it!” Hero rushed at the beast and swung his sword vertically. *Ting* The blade broke after hitting the head.
“…”
“…”
“…I’m not sorry.”
“*WRAAAR*” Jack was sent flying by a monster’s attack. *Crush* The tree was broken by the impact.
“*Cough* Okay… I will kill you with my bare hands…No pun intended. [Yuzja]!”

“I checked! This should work in one way! Also there is another problem!”
“Hey Nick! Let’s play!” “Nick I am hungry!” “I’m bored!” “I still want that toy!” “Hug!” “Hey listen!”
“They are like children!”
[“…I won’t judge you.”]
“I asking for a help there!”
[“Well… You have a problem. It will be 100$ for a specialist’s help.”]
“I am serious!”
[“And I am riding on a bear. Just make them rank up. Maybe they will turn older?”]
