Everyone left the room, leaving me behind.
A few minutes later, a young maid came into the room with two buckets and put them on the floor for me.
I looked into buckets, ignoring the young maid who left the room.
I tried eating the meat and it tasted delicious for no reason.
I am starting to feel myself straying from being human.
Anyway, having finishing my meal and being left alone in the room, I took the chance to look around.
The room I am in looks like a solar which is often seen in western medieval games. It has a fireplace and interesting decorations on the walls.
The only differences in the room was that all the tables and chairs are placed against the wall. I guess it was to make space for the summoning ritual.
As I looked around, I started picking up scents. Not my furry scent, but the scent of a perfume.
The only person who has close contact with me would be Ariel.
*DING*
You have unlocked Sniff.
Ariel Crimsonheart has been added to your list of Scents.
I almost growled loudly in anger at notifications.
Ignoring the notification in front of me, I continue to focus on my current task while calming down.
Then I noticed some piles of books on the tables and went over there.
At first, the symbols on the books seems foreign to me but as I attempt to read and figure them out, I started to have a splitting headache.
*DING*
You have unlocked Lesser Flame Spirit's Wisdom.
You have unlocked Language Comprehension (Olam).
You had obtained them when you were a lesser spirit of fire but due to the summoning ritual, your skills are locked until the summoner permits it. As the contract with Ariel Crimsonheart is not a familiar contract, you may obtain or unlock skills as you progress along.
No, I am your wisdom.
Yes.
Yes.
No.
*DING*
Wisely, the Lesser Flame Spirit's Wisdom has evolved to Wisely, the Flame Spirit's Wisdom
You have unlocked Naming.

No, You do not have the required information.
Yes.
I was depressed for a few hours until the room's door burst open.
Ariel: FIERY! Look at what I have got for you!
I turned around and saw Ariel holding up a red collar for me to see.
Ariel: Do you like it ?
I nodded to her question and patted her head. She seems to like it.
Walter: Excuse me, Fiery
I did not notice Walter came into the room
Walter: Due to the lack of guest rooms, I am afraid that you have to stay here for the night.
Fiery: It's alright, Having a roof over my head is better than nothing.
Walter: Very well then. Young Miss, it's time for your lessons.
Ariel: Walter, can I play with Fiery for a little while? Pretty please?
Walter: Sorry, Young Miss. I am sure that you do understand the consequences if you do not attend your lessons.
Ariel: Fine, I will go.
Ariel said with a pouting face.
Ariel: Fiery, we will play together at a later time, okay?
Fiery: Of course, Young Miss
As I and Walter watched Ariel left the room, Walter turned to speak to me.
Walter: A message from the lady, she said she will have that private conservation in here by tomorrow morning.
Walter: Is it alright with you ?
Fiery: I am alright with that. Please send my thanks to the lady.
Walter: I will give your message to the lady.
Walter left the room after that.
For the rest of the day, I just simply read the books which I just found, played with Ariel, ate another meal and slept till next morning.
Rose: Fiery, are you listening ?
I was still fidgeting with the red collar that Aerial bought while sitting on the floor. Rose was in front of me sitting on an armchair and sipping a cup of tea from a small round table which was beside the armchair.
Fiery: Sorry, My Lady. Yes, I was listening. It is just that I am not used to being collared.
Rose: Well, that will take time. So what do you think of our world ?
Fiery: Hmm...........
I looked up with eyes closed and folded my arms while trying to come up with an answer.
Southern Empire, ruled by Demon Emperor, Flamma Northern Empire, ruled by Pope Hibernis Western Empire, ruled by Elven Emperor Artorius Eastern Empire, ruled by Empress Murasaki Central Empire, ruled by Monarchess Shamsun Northern Empire is always at war with Southern Empire and Eastern, Western and Central Empire declared neutrality.> Holy Order of Light (Southern Empire) Black Order of Darkness (Northern Empire) Spirit Order of Balance (Western Empire) Divine Order of Paths (Eastern Empire) Central Empire was the only empire that accepts all religions in spite of their differences. One example of their differences would be marriages. Holy Order does not allow polygamy while the other religions are fine with it.> Rose: So, have you done thinking ? I reacted to her question by opening my eyes and looking at her. Fiery: Yes. I am done, My Lady. The world is not as bad as I think. Rose diverted her eyes from my answer for a while and look at me again. Rose: If you say so...Is there anything else you want to ask me ? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author's Notes: As you requested, another chapter.
