at midnight
In the coastal city of Iskar
In the largest palace in the city
All the servants and members of the family gathered to welcome the return of the head of the family
(That's surprising even my mom came) Fray thought
One of the oldest traditions of the Prada family is to welcome the head of the family at the entrance to the palace whenever he returns from carrying out a dangerous mission
But this was a precedent for fray, although he had received a hostile welcome before. It was only from the servants. This is the first time the whole family is organized to welcome his return
(The loyalty contract seemed to frighten them a little) Fray thought
All members of the Prada family have contract spirits, even wives, courtesans, and servants. In short, anyone living in the Prada family's palace must be a spirit warrior in at least the at First Kingdom, or they will be expelled from the family.
But even though there were a lot of people not even one of them talks to Fray, they all stood there as Fray entered the mansion and that's it
and as usual they didn't join Fray for dinner, but Fray didn't care, he already expected this.
From the novel's events Fray knew that even if he died, no one would care about him
except
"You did well this time, sir," montaser said while Fray was having dinner
"Thank you, montaser, I wouldn't have been able to do anything if you hadn't helped me," said Fray
(Is he trying to console me, what an i***t) Fray thought in annoyance, though a faint smile formed on his face, but no one noticed that smile, not even Fray himself.
But montaser did not lie, despite not being able to clean the dungeon. They got a lot of loot from the warehouse of the Serpent organization, which will be a great help to the city that Fray rules (the city of Iscar) and which suffers from many problems at the present time.
"Montaser sent messages to all members of the council. Tell them tomorrow there will be a meeting tomorrow at midday, and attendance is mandatory," said Fray
After leaving this order, Fray left the dining room and headed towards a place no one had visited in years
chemistry room
Fray's grandfather was a skilled alchemist and he was doing his research in this room. It contains all the necessary tools and machines for alchemy and many scientific books in various fields and even Fray's grandfather's notes are here, but because there are no books related to martial arts or magic This room was abandoned after Fray's grandfather died, or rather after he was murdered.
Fray obtained advanced scientific knowledge thanks to Yassine's memories, but there are many differences between Yassine's world and Fray's world.
For example, if Fray wants to remake a car, he has the minerals and knowledge to make it, but there is no oil in this world
Therefore, Fray must first understand the sciences of his world and then combine them with the sciences of Yassine's world to find a suitable energy source to make a car in this world. This logic applies to all the inventions that Frey intends to achieve. .
With that thought in his head, Fray closed himself in the room and began reading the books his grandfather had left
In the morning,
Fray left the room and headed towards the back garden, where there is a space for exercise equipped with different types of heavy weight exercise machines that Fray uses for training
as well as a big spaces for running and training in martial arts
After an hour of intense training
"Cemetery Army." Fray mumbled in a low voice as he sat on the ground. Suddenly a large group of black-colored insects appeared out of the void and started circling around Fry.
The number of these insects was so great that they completely covered Fray's body , and suddenly a white light started emitting from the insects and streaming towards the fray.
These insects are called cemetery bees, and they are insects similar to bees, but they are about twice as large than ordinary bees. and it is the second contracted Fray's spirit, and it is a summoning type spirit that can absorb the energy of dead creatures and transmit it to the contracted human.
It is a rank three spirit but it can evolve and can reach rank seven or eight if it absorbs enough energy ,it only gives Fray half of the energy it absorbed and keeps the other half for itself to evolve and it has already gone through its first evolution it was a first rank spirit and became in the third rank
After its development, the number of bees has become less and larger and can absorb twice the amount of energy compared to before, and even its handling and control of energy has become better
Normally summoning type souls need a large amount of energy to maintain but this spirit depends on the energy it has absorbed to maintain itself so it is a suitable soul for Fray who cannot use energy
Fray acquired these two souls at a young age, and after obtaining these two souls, Fray decided to follow a path that only a few would follow, which is the path of a the body development.
The body developer combines energy with his bones, muscles and internal organs to make his body stronger, but he cannot maintain the energy in his body for long. Any energy that enters his body merges with him quickly
Because of this, a body developer cannot use energy to create spells like a magician does, or martial arts skills like a warrior does. He can't even use a spiritual sense.
Despite this major flaw in the body developer's job, Fray decided to follow it because the Spirit Gate told him that his first Contracting spirit *narod* was using this job and Fray knew that the skills he would obtain from narod would be related to it.
After half an hour
(It seems the energy is running out) Fray thought after noticing that the cemetery army was gradually disappearing and the energy it was producing became stronger.
It's been a while since the last time Frey went hunting, and when raiding the serpent's lair, Fray had to rescue the children quickly so he didn't have time to absorb the energy of the dead so the energy from the spirit ran out now
After training, Fray took a shower and ate breakfast alone, as usual
And start preparing for the meeting....after this meeting everything will change
