"I get it why you want to always be on adventures now. This place is too serene. In other words, it is boring, and it is making me sleepy." Adrian stated as he laid on the bench located in the courtyard.
"It will still take time for your magic stone to be furnished. Maybe try reading the books in my study so that you can have an idea of magic the Ryujin from the House of Creation are using." Peridot stated.
"What is the point? I cannot use elemental magic anyway and my soulbounds that can learn magic are basically masters of their own element. I will just try and practice with the summoning magic.
I have yet to fully explore the power of the new summoning magic as soulbounds could no longer be all summoned. The upside is that summoning a soulbound does not need a cooldown anymore before summoning another." Adrian stated as he clearly read all the changes that happened to the summoning class.
The limit of having three soulbounds at a time is the basis for the new summoning system. In return for decreasing the quantitative power, the devs focused on the qualitative increase. They also created a new skill for summoners when they reach level 200.
The developers did not say much but they hinted it as something like a limit breaker skill that is available for all job classes. They might have been players that already reached level 200, but they will not disclose this as someone being a pioneer means they have monopoly over game content.
"It actually sucks that you can only summon three at a time. The only way you can summon all of them is that you must own a town or territory. The outrage from the summoner player base is not as heated as before because the buffs that the soulbounds give are very useful." Peridot stated as she knew that the summoners are having difficulty coping up with this new change.
Making the soulbounds have buffs is a major game changer for the summoners. From the initial analysis of the game experts, each soulbound has unique buffs that they give to themselves and party members. This made summoners that wanted to build a powerhouse must coordinate with them regarding these scrolls.
Adrian started to focus as he could only use his left hand inside of the game for a limited amount of time. Each soulbound can only be summoned once as the Summoning Circle immediately reverts to a sealing skill once the monster is subjugated by the summoner.
Adrian then noticed that the first of the three soulbounds that he summoned will be demanding. The fourth summoning circle appeared but Adrian is not sure if he did something good as demons or do not have parents that much to begin with as they are usually born from the world.
Adrian noticed that the summoning magic circle did not immediately disappear once he opened it. The three he is currently summoning right now are Sirius, Kanlaon, and Kimat. If he summoned a new soulbound then Sirius should return to the Soul Chamber.
The thing is that Adrian instructed Dodu to not get out of the summoning circle. Just like Adrian's hypothesis, the summoning magic circle did not vanish, but it remained suspended in the air. Dodu could even stretch a part of its liquid body out from the magic circle.
Adrian did not even have a notification saying that Sirius will be unsummoned. It means that the first soulbound will only be sealed when another one is summoned fully into the world. Parts of the soulbound passing though the summoning circle does not count.
The summoning circle might not have a cooldown anymore, but it still cost mana. Adrian noticed that his mana is decreasing for each second that the summoning magic circle is still present. There seems to be no signs of instability in the magic circle, but he could more or less get ideas from what he has observed.
Adrian then summoned Dodu and Saena which made Sirius and Kanlaon get sealed. Adrian could still speak with his soulbounds using his soul link which meant that the next experiment is underway.
Adrian cast the summoning magic circle for Sirius, but he did something different instead of summoning him fully. Adrian commanded Sirius to get in his real size and stomp real hard on the magic circle. The summoning magic circle of the Fenrir soulbound is not in a vertical position but in a horizontal format.
Sirius obeyed the command and stomped his feet towards the magic circle in a horizontal orientation. The result is nothing but extraordinary as Adrian developed a new way to utilize the summoning system. He actually found a hidden feature for summoners now that the summoning magic circle limit is lifted.
Sirius' giant foot stomped onto the ground in the material realm which slightly damaged the pavement that they were stepping upon. Adrian could now utilize the abilities of soulbounds in a limited scope despite them being inside of the soul link.
Adrian then stopped supplying mana to Sirius' magic circle and it vanished without much of a problem. The only thing that Adrian needs to know is the limits of this hidden feature. Adrian then tried Kanlaon's magic circle as he wanted to see if the breath attack will pass through the magic circle.
Kanlaon faithfully agreed but the breath attack did not reach the mortal plane as the magic circle also acted as some sort of barrier. It might have been a fail safe in case of a rowdy soulbound that is not even considering to be tamed by a summoner.
"If Kanlaon fires the breath attack inside of the soul chamber then it will not reach here. What about this then? Kanlaon, materialize your head and blow your breath attack into the sky for a second." Adrian commanded as he thought that the soul chamber is preventing Kanlaon from unleashing his breath attack into the material realm.
Just like what Adrian commanded, Kanlaon showed his head into the mortal realm as if he is a dragon looking at the world he will soon conquer. Kanlaon then released its breath attack into the sky. Like what Adrian thought, the breath attack came through because it is used in the material world.
"This would be very useful in fights that require a sneak attack against the opponents." Adrian thought as Peridot stared at him blankly for suddenly thinking of something so out of the box and possibly game breaking.
Adrian continued his tests until he heard the rallying voice of a man from the outside of the manor. Peridot asked what was the commotion about and one of the servants told her that someone from the House of the Azure Dragon is telling them that the young mistress did a misdeed to one of their own.
=====
"Your young mistress must pay for stealing the hard-earned loot of my nephew and niece." One of the elders from the House of the Azure Dragon demanded as he flared his aura at the guards.
The House of Creation is not a totally hidden location, but it is only hidden to those that cannot overcome the illusion. In other words, weak guests have no place in the House of Creation. The Ryujin values strength or unique talent over the power of the masses.
Seeing that it is an elder of the House of the Azure Dragon that is complaining, one of the elders from the House of Creation stepped up to see what that elder from the other house is fussing about. Peridot chuckled as she already knew what the aim of the elder really is.
"It seems that they want to retrieve the Qilin through diplomacy." Adrian stated as he just finished his tests.
"I am sure that the bastard Zhong Donghai did not tattle what the treasure of Mt. Thunder really is. That is one of the reasons why that elder is only saying that I stole a treasure from them. He is clearly making it vague so that we reveal that we actually have the Qilin." Peridot stated.
"Well, the elder from your house that talked to that elder from the House of the Azure Dragon is actually the one that is fond of the Qilin. He will definitely protect the Qilin by hiding it. He will definitely feign ignorance." Adrian stated as he clearly could see that the elder from the House of Creation like to dote upon Peridot like she is their actual grandchild.
"What are you shouting so loudly in the middle of the day? Do you not have any manners?" The elder from the House of Creation stated which made the elder from the House of the Azure Dragon a bit ashamed.
"You actually question me from being loud? Elder Sky, your young mistress took something from my niece and nephew, and they want it back." The elder from the House of the Azure Dragon stated.
"If this is just about the magic stone then we will gladly compensate you with the price of a small magic stone since that is the so-called treasure that the young miss got from your niece and nephew. She thought it was great and all, but she wanted to return it once she learned that it was a small magic stone.." Elder Sky stated which made both Peridot and Adrian giggle as they came close to the scene.
