Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 894: The Plans Ahead
-----
I think I've done most of the things I needed to do the most. I Ranked Up, did all the Spirit Realm chores, made a Mana Core, evolved the familiars, summoned the vampires and evolved the previous ones. Now, what's next?
Thinking about it while eating pancakes with syrup and sipping on a coffee, while having the beautiful scenery of grasslands and a calm and peaceful village in the window really made me feel at ease.
Right, I need to strengthen my equipment. I already made a very strong armor, but my spear is still awaiting further enhancements. Aside from that, my gun too, and also I promised Elizabeth a weapon, didn't I? A holy hammer of some sort, I believe that's what she asked me, she does deserve a gift from me after all.
Should I get to that today or later this month? I think prioritizing leveling is better, but it's a gift for Elizabeth too… So I don't want to delay it anymore. Well, I guess I'll do it tomorrow morning. I was already quite busy this morning.
"Hey Blake, did you had to just walk away while we were sleeping? You could have woken us up with you…!" Erika was pouting at me, angry I left them sleeping.
"Your sleep is so heavy I don't think that would have been a wise idea, you would have groaned a lot before even waking up, Erika." I said, petting her head.
"T-That's not right!" She said, crossing her arms and feeling flustered. "…Or is it?"
Elizabeth and Eleanora both nodded at her, Erika felt devastated.
"Well, it doesn't really matter. I heard you were busy this morning, what happened?" Elizabeth asked.
"Oh, I just evolved Ruby and Blood, remember them?" I asked her. "They're now both A Rank and four-star monsters."
"A-A Rank?!" My father asked. "Aren't monsters of that level calamities?! They could easily destroy our whole town if they wanted…"
"They're very loyal pets, sir, so don't worry about that." Eleanora reassured my father. "Especially Blood, he is such a fluffy little guy. He would never harm any innocent person ever! He loves belly rubs and I always give him little treats."
"I-I see, well, I'm glad they're trustworthy then." My father nodded. "But this is like the first time I ever heard about someone taming A Rank Monsters, this is insane… Usually only there are spirit summoners, but tamers? They're incredibly rare!"
"Hmm, I've heard that in the Beast Continent, beast-kin people have affinities with taming monsters." Said Cattalina, sipping tea afterwards. "That Continent is very far away from here, but it is where they had developed taming arts the most. I've heard most of their Spirits are also made exclusively to help them tame such creatures. Amusing, isn't it?"
"So there is some taming knowledge… but in another whole continent…" I sighed. "I haven't seen any beast-kin people in the academy though, are they not in the alliance?"
"The are, sort of, but their society systems are different than ours." Said Cattalina. "Their children are taught there and level up in their own dungeons. They have special trials, classes, training, and more depending in which tribe they belong to. They form large alliances between tribes that then build giant cities to live.
But often times, alliances are constantly battling with one another for territory. It doesn't help their continent is the farthest from the demon's invasion, so they're not as concerned as everyone else, and usually waste time in these trivial things, without preparing or helping as much as we would want.
They do send powerful warriors, but even then… when compared to the Dwarven and Elven Continents, it is still lackluster."
"I see how it is." I nodded while imagining things much more. "Do they have some sort of Deity they worship aside from the holy spirits? I heard from Alberta that the Dwarves have their Divine Architect who creates dungeons."
"Yes, yes, they do have many divine spirits that are close to holy spirits." Nodded Cattalina. "Mostly in the form of special Mythical Beasts that protect each tribe or tribe alliances. Sadly some of them have rather… savage tendencies, affecting the tribes they protect to become too bloodthirsty and battle hungry."
"That's a pity…" My father sighed. "Wait! There are more deities than the holy spirits?!"
"Yeah." Elizabeth, a representant of the holy spirit church giggled. "They're often times people or Ancient Spirits that managed to Rank Up enough to qualify, they're most of the time very ancient and don't like to talk too much. They're all aiming to become Holy Spirits themselves and join the rest, some already have a spot with them, others are working alone."
"D-Do Dwarves only have one?" Asked my mother. "T-That's a bit too less, no?"
"There should be one of Forging, they call it the Godsmith Hephaestus, and also the Earthly Mother Gaia." Said Cattalina. "All three of them are their major deities in a way, although they all still worship the holy spirits anyways.
The elves are the same… From what I've learned, there's the Divine Spirit of Yggdrasil, the Divine Dragon Fafnir, who's the youngest, and lastly, the Fairy Queen Titania."
"Fafnir, huh?" I rubbed my chin. "So he's already seen as a deity. This is going to be fun."
Everyone glared at me in surprise… I guess I better not say another word before my parents begin to worry again about what I might do in the future. But there's no way I'm not fighting that monster, I've grown this strong just for that.
After a lot of talking and eating, we prepared to depart with my siblings once more, who were mostly playing with their familiars all this time without paying attention to the grown up talk they couldn't really understand well.
"Alright, let's go then." I said, stepping out of the house with everyone.
"Big brother! Are we grinding more levels?" Asked Anna.
"Yes, I want you to grow as strong as possible." I nodded. "I won't stop until you two are at least… Hmm, Rank 4?"
"Rank 4?! Is there enough EXP in this entire place for them to get this far, Blake?!" Elizabeth asked me.
"We'll have to see first." I smiled. "We can always keep trying."
