Ernest took Karma to his room at the Double Arch. The owner of the Double Arch gave Ernest the packages that had arrived.

Obviously some of Pertil's supporters had sent him gifts. He found them suspicious so he put them to the side of the room and never opened them.

He put her to bed and slept on the floor himself. Karma was delirious.

"Please, please..."

"... please don't. This is my life."

Every once in a while she said angrily.

"He's my apprentice!"

"...don't touch her! He's important..."

"...he will save us all."

In the morning he was awakened by Karma's screams.

"You! How could you do this to your own master? I took you under my wing, I agreed to be your master!"

Karma thought Ernest had slept with him that night.

"Will you calm down? As you can see, I'm lying on the floor. I didn't know what to do when you slept."

Karma started to think logically.

"So why didn't you take me home?"

"Do I know where your house is?"

"We just went to practice yesterday."

And she was right. Ernest knew where home was, but his battle with Agares and the forevaraxes had exhausted him. He had forgotten because of fatigue and alcohol.

"It doesn't matter. We'll go to Eldoria today. If you have anything you want to buy, I'll wait for you at the guild hall."

Ernest didn't have any belongings except the packages he had bought at night. He thought it wouldn't hurt to look.

"Eggs, a letter, a knife and some fruit. And some potions. Who drinks potions from someone they don't know?"

When he saw the potions, he had just thought of them.

"Where did the items that fell from the mana cat go? I wonder if it's done like this..."

"...Inventory."

Inventory

Forevarax Blood, Forevarax Liver, Forevarax Wing, Forevarax Rune Stone, Forevarax Eye, Forevarax Egg, Forevarax Feather, Umbrus (Passive), Cat Eye, Mana Cat Liver, Mana Cat Engagement Ring...

He made a fortune from forevaraxes. He had several of many different forevarax items. He also had the shadow spirit in his inventory.

"Glossary: Shadow Spirit Umbrus."

Umbrus

Umbrus, also known as the King of Shadows, is one of the sentient spirits in Yarya. He can bring weak-willed beings under his control. Many mages in Yarya make pacts with Umbrus and use his powers. Umbrus considers those he makes a pact with to be part of his subjects and protects them. In some cases, he has saved the lives of many wizards.

Umbrus is the brother of the Spirit of Light. Although he is one of the oldest spirits, he is known as a weak spirit.

Although there is detailed information about Umbrus, how to use it was not explained in this article.

How to use Umbrus?

Umbrus is one of the ancient spirits. It can be dangerous to use unless the spirit wants it to be. Umbrus can allow its use in many situations, as it is loyal to its user. When Umbrus is carried passively, shadow spells cast without prayer are cast on par with the best prayer.

After a certain amount of use, Umbrus becomes an active item. When this happens, it leaves your inventory and is stored in your shadow. Active use of Umbrus can give new souls to inanimate bodies. The number of souls you can resurrect is equal to the level of Umbrus.

It was good news for him that he could now use shadow spells without prayer. Although he was slowly improving in prayer, it was not really his thing.

"The dictionary also takes me from page to page. I'm getting bored..."

"Dictionary: Spirit Use."

Spirit Use

Once captured, souls are reborn and start at level one. Souls are immortal, and terms such as life and mana do not apply to souls. Instead, the availability of souls is determined by Essence.

When a king spirit is captured, it is replaced by its heir, a species of the same or similar faction. This allows spells to be cast without interruption. Only those who have an agreement with the spirit you have captured will be aware of this change.

If a spirit's Essence value reaches zero, the spirit gains its freedom and returns to its original level. You can only possess the same spirit twice, and the second time you do so, the spirit will drop back to the first level.

He had already seen the Essence on the screen since he captured the soul. It had even increased by 90 units since it first appeared.

Umbrus

Level 1

Essence: 130

He tried to look up everything he needed to know. After all, it might seem strange to use spells like the dictionary in front of others.

"Search in the dictionary: Elvandor"

Elvandor

No dictionary entry was entered.

For the first time ever, she could not find the information she wanted in the dictionary. Normally, anything he heard once was immediately added to the dictionary.

"Search in the dictionary: Cendrian."

Cendrian

They are one of the human races on Yarya. They are the leading race, accomplished in everything, especially witchcraft. In the past, many Cendrians have been raped so that newborn children would carry Cendrian blood, or vice versa, other races have been raped to assimilate them. In many different periods of time, different human races have treated each other similarly. Of course, no matter what race, the whole race cannot be blamed for the crimes committed by a particular group. There are more and more people in Yarya who hold this view.

She does not expect to see such a heavy dictionary entry. In the end, not only did he not get the information he wanted, but he also got some disgusting information.

"Search in the dictionary: Races."

Races

On Yarya, humanoid and human races have continued to form since time immemorial. In addition to demons, angels and giants, humans are also divided into different races. Pertil and cendrian are examples.

Indeed, all this time he felt that being a cendrian was more prominent, but everyone could see that he was a pertilian in the first place. Why was it that only Karma and Aurion understood that he was cendrian? What made them special?

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. It is true that they are much more knowledgeable than me, but I have been blessed by the entity, I don't think they can harm me. They seem like pretty nice people anyway."

He left for the guild building as Karma had said.

"Really, why am I carrying the weight of the sword? I'm mostly a wizard anyway."

"Sir, don't do that!"

Spirit upgraded to active level!

"You must have your sword with you. It will be your number one protection, especially until I regain my strength. Do not put yourself at risk."

"Umbrus, so you can speak, even though I've never used you."

"I am a king spirit, sir, and I will continue to grow in power even if you don't use me."

"Then I'll make a deal with you. Teach me a new shadow spell every day. What do you say?"

"I'd be delighted, sir, and if you like, I'll prepare an incantation right away. You don't need it, but it will be easy to use for the first time, and your imagination is important in the casting of the spell."

"You won't expect me to beg and pray for you, will you?"

"Hasha sir, it never crossed my mind! Just command me as you did before. Here are your words: Dark king fallen from darkness, hide my name by my command to you, find yourself from the depths of darkness to rule the shadows."

"What good will that do? It sounds like a spell of freedom for you. Escape once and I will capture you again, escape a second time and this time I will purify you."

"With this spell you can shift shadow forms. The form is determined by your imagination but limited by Yarya rules. For example, you can wear armor or wield a sword. You can even turn directly into shadow and move more freely."

Ernest was going to use the spell to get to the guild hall without being seen. He cast the spell without much thought. He wanted to turn into a shadow and sneak up on Karma.

"Ernest, next time I'll kill you."

Karma had already noticed him. Ernest returned to his normal body.

"How did you know?"

"The spell hides your mana well, but this time I can sense Umbrus. You can use it for other purposes instead of hiding. I'll teach you later."

Karma was still trying to teach Ernest everything she could. She was educating him at every opportunity, telling him his mistakes.
