Chapter 37: Subus


    If this was a joke, this is one of the not funny jokes I ever heard of. Someone like her is offering a contract? Aren''t a person able to only make a contract to a single familiar? Just as I was wondering what is going on, I heard a familiar voice that seems to being from my mind.


    "Master, it looks like you can have different contracts to different familiars without any problem. If you make a contract with her, you won''t have anyplications at all."


    "Inari?!"


    "Yes, this is me. I may not be summoned by your side right now but I can see everything that my master is seeing right now. Also, I canmunicate with you due to our connection with the contract without consuming mana."


    With the iing wave of skeletonsing at me, I am forced to back down while I am trying to process what is going on with this.


    The subus flew beside me and seems to be waiting for my response. I don''t really know what to do in this situation and I don''t have any idea why this is happening to me. But one thing is sure, I am still overwhelmed here!


    "So what are you going to do? I am waiting for your response~"


    Damn, her sultry way of speaking is interrupting me. I can''t really concentrate on my attacks here due to her.


    "Master, I suggest that you ept her proposal. You won''t be afraid of betrayal from a contract anyway so this is good what I am saying is actually pretty good offer," Inari said.


    "Am I going to be safe with this woman though?"


    "Don''t worry master, as long as she is under your contract, she can''t betray you and she can''t cancel the contract unless you agree to cancel the contract of hers."


    I see. Even though its a bitplicated in my part, I still understand what she meant to say. If I have her with me, I have a higher chance of survival in this ce. And from the looks of it, this subus is a strong one. However, there is one thing that I am confused about her.


    "I will agree to your condition but answer my question first, what are you trying to aplish by allying yourself with me?"


    The subus smiled as she swiped her hands in the air and a wave of blood shot out of that wave, killing all the skeletons that areing in our way. She looked at me and gave me a meaningful look.


    "I am just bored here and also, I think I have taken a liking to you, that''s what."


    I almost spurt out blood from what she just said. Are you flirting with me or what?!


    In the end, I decided to ept the contract she is offering. Since I can ept more than one familiar, there is no problem for me forming a contract with her. As soon as the contract seal appeared on her left leg, she started to get serious.


    "Master, supply me with mana and I will clear out the way for you!"


    I nodded and supplied my mana to her via connection to our contract. As soon as the wave of mana flowed to her, she suddenly squealed like she really liked the feeling of the mana flowing to her.


    "<em><strong>THIS... IS... AMAZING</strong></em>!"


    And without warning, she opened her wings and a strong amount of bloodlust started to gather around the air. It started to get thicker and thicker as it gathers on the subus. As soon as the big cloud of bloodlust umted in the air, she grinned and pped her wings.


    ''"Be grateful you ants can see my glorious self and receive death from my hands!"


    The strong malice transformed simr to the power that the subus used earlier. And before I knew it, she released it like a wave of water in the ocean. The skeletons crumbled to dust and the ce turned barren again.


    I didn''t waste my time and sprinted towards the direction of the necromancer. The necromancer was surprised to see that the mass of skeletons he summoned disintegrated into nothingness. Although I have no intention of using the remaining power of the Skull Knuckles, it has enough crushing power to destroy the enemy. Controlling the power to stop the casting of thetent skill, I grab the head of the necromancer and ignited my hand before I started bashing his head relentlessly.


    The crushing power of the Skull Knuckles ended up reducing the head of the necromancer into powder. Also, after destroying the head, a red orb fell into my hands. I examined the item carefully and a panel appeared before me, stating what item it was.


    (Orb of Memory)


    Item


    Description: An orb containing someone''s memory. Depending on what memories stored there, it can be used as a preserving memory for their loved ones or to store important knowledge. The knowledge can be passed to another person if it was eaten.


    Another weird item again. I put it on the bag and after the orb was separated into the body of the necromancer did the body started to crumble and turn into dust. After that, the remaining skeletons that are not killed from the st that the subus shot out earlier fell down and started to crumble away back into dust.


    Although that was a tiresome battle for me, it became easy due to the subus. What was left to the ce are the mana shards, dark shards, and a few cursed stones that scattered all around the ground without much disturbance. When I was picking up the items, the subus waved her hand and all of the shards started floating and gathered to her hands.


    "Are you collecting these master?"


    "Yeah. Is there any problem with that?"


    "I don''t know what are your uses on these items since they are just junk in our eyes. Do you have something you need to use it with? I have seen a lot of this stuff around here."


    "These items can increase my mana, and will help me recover mana faster whenever I use it."


    When the subus heard this, her eyes glowed as if she heard something amazing.


    "Okay! I will help you gather all of these things!"


    "Huh?"


    "Your mana is the best thing I ever tasted in my life. It is much better than human seed that we normally eat. It even surpasses the quality of taste that the male essence has! I will help you and you will supply me mana in return!"


    "AH..." I was baffled but I can''t say anything. She hummed and gather the items and shove them all to me.


    As soon as all of the shards were shoved to me, all of the shards gathered together and they became one. She looked amazed at the spectacle after all of the shards gathered together. The pieces of shards including the shards that I gathered earlier became one, turning into Mana Orbs. Looks like everything is good this time. But I guess this subus will be staying with me for quite a while.


    "Ahhhnnn~ Master... I''m getting horny I want yours~"


    "No way in hell..." I grumbled. Maybe not really good I guess.
