Eregn woke up hours later to it being noon, he got out of bed to see an note on his desk from Crowley.
" Master Eregn, I figured you were probably up late at night studying lunch is downstairs an after you finish eating we will resume your training, sincerely Isaiah Crowley. "
Eregn put the note down an yawned remembering he got rewards and five stat points that he needed to assign, so he put three in strength, one in speed an the last in endurance.

Now that Eregn had reached level three he could have access to the crafting tab, he knew he needed better armor and weapons, especially after last night he saw first hand how much of a difference it was to not have them plus he had a new item he had to check out too.
" Let's see what the crafting tab has to offer first. "

Looking through and reading the items Eregn knew he had to have them the would increase his skills greatly the only problem was getting the materials, he would have to go into town to get them. " I'll just have to ask Crowley for some money and a ride to town later. " thought Eregn.
" Now let's take a look at my reward. "
< Inventory >
< Scroll of the Familiar : A contract that summons a creature based on the user to soul bond >
Eregn eyes lit up with delight as a scroll appeared out of thin air dropping into his hands, he read some stuff on familiars before and how some spellcasters had them to help channel their power an assist them, but these would usually be magical beast and even then that was incredibly rare to have.
Eregn rushed to his father study and locked the door behind him.
" So Hades... how do I use this ? "
< Well first.... you have to lay the scroll out, then write your name in blood after place the hand you cut in the center of it while speaking the ancient text to bring forth the familiar... it usually takes a lot of power because its basically crossing dimensions there is no telling what or who might answer the call... Hehehe>
" Why do you always have to laugh an make it sound so cryptic Hades ? "
< Because you humans amuse me... especially You Eregn, i've been dormant for so many years to meet someone like you reminds me of someone I knew... and if you're anything like him then this will be a hell of show... >
Eregn pushed his hair back an laughed. " Well then I'll make sure that you enjoy the show then. "
Eregn laid the scroll out like Hades told him in the center of the scroll was a white circle with ancient symbols around it untill he saw a place to write his name.
Opening his spatial ring pulled the kunai out and cut open his hand dipping the kunai in his blood then wrote his name with it, placing his hand in the center, Hades translated the Ancient text for him into english.
" I Call Upon The Power Of The Netherworld, Ancient Ones Answer My Call To Serve Beside Me, My Blood Is The Bond And My Essences Is Your Core, Break the Barrier Of The Veil And Lend Me Your Strength, Come Forth To Serve The Lord Of Death ! "
The Scroll began to glow a deep red followed by purple then green causing Eregn eyes to do the same he felt his essences deplete faster then ever.
< Essences 5/220 >
Eregn lifted his hand off the scroll as it rolled back up and bursted into flames the smoke began creating a dark portal crackling with purple static
until it was the size of a doorway an out stepped a being who stood around four feet with yellow eyes, dark purple skin that looked somewhat scaly with two horns sticking out of his head while a tail with an stinger at the end of its tail wrapped around the waist of its black robes.
The robes had a bird face in the center with gold along the edges of the it, an finally coming out from behind him was black feather wings.
The being gave off a devilishly aura as he analyzed his surroundings until his eyes fell upon Eregn.
The devilish fiend took a knee in front of Eregn
" You called an I answered my Lord, I am Malfist Korvan, Prince of the Ravens an the six son of the Queen of Night." Malfist looked up at Eregn once more and was surprised how young he looked.
" I must say my Lord... you are not what I expected...I thought you might be a little more how do I say it... seasoned, but nonetheless you must be on your way to great strength if you were able to summon me so with this bond i will be your right hand, I will be your eyes an ears in the shadows, it will be a honor to serve the future King of Death my only price is that you feed me a soul every once in while. "
" Hmm sounds like a deal with a devil....sounds crazy, but if you can offer me you power an loyalty...it's a deal. "
" You will not be disappointed My Lord. "
Malfist smiled wickedly as he cut open the palm of his hand with his talons reaching for Eregn's bleeding hand, shaking on it, soon a ghastly green third eye appeared on his forehead.
< Contract Completed >
< You now have bonded with Familar: Malfist Korvan >
Eregn couldn't believe his eyes this great and powerful being just pledged his loyalty to him he had to inspect his strength.

" Nice this guy got some nice tricks up his sleeves and he's pretty strong with him by my side who knows what I'll be able to accomplish ."
Eregn was rubbing his chin in deep thought when it was interrupted by a knock at the door.
" Master Eregn are you in there ? I know studying is important, but one must not forget about the daily importance of nourishment especially for a growing young lad such as yourself."
Eregn began to panic he couldn't let Crowley see Malfist who knows what could happen.
Eregn turned back around towards Malfist right when Crowley opened the door, but he was gone.
" Wh..where did he go ? "
