After constructing the pillar and the cauldron that contains the fire where the egg will be placed to help it hatch quickly, I and Jack return back to the HA lab just like I said to Evienne. I saw Evienne and Joel still talking. When we got near them, they were not talking about the necklace anymore, they were talking about a lot of things, mostly about the familiars.
"What are you two talking about? Does Joel keep bothering you with his curious questions?"-Demetri.
Joel gave me that shut-up look while Evienne just smiled at me.
"It's okay Demetri, Mr. Joel here doesn't bother me that much, he's just curious about my children, the familiars"-Evienne.
"Yeah Demetri, I am just curious how everything about this works"-Joel.
"I'm just joking Joel, always so serious, anyways, the pillar and cauldron is ready, you know now what to do right?"-Demetri.
"Yeah, yeah, do the familiar summoning then craft Ms. Evienne's necklace according to the instructions in this paper, oh right, Ms. Evienne can I add my own touch to the necklace"-Joel
"You can Mr. Joel"-Evienne.
"Thank you, Ms. Evienne, and can I just say that you really are so beautiful, seeing you this close, I can see now why Chairman David is the lucky one in this relationship"-Joey.
Evienne gives Joel a shy smile at what he just said. After we are done in the HA lab, we went back to the location of the familiar summoning pillar. I thought Joel what to do and hand him the paper that contains the incantation and the magic circle for the familiar summoning ritual. I step back and walk toward where Jack and Evienne are standing. Jack leans to me and asks if he can perform the summoning ritual today too.
"Can I perform it summoning now too?"-Jack
"Of course Jack you can"-Demetri.
A beam of light comes out from the pillar, and just like before Evienne transforms into her original form and appears to the pillar. After a few moments of waiting, the egg appears.
"Joel, place the egg on the fire so that it will hatch quickly"-Demetri.
"Okay, copy that"-Joel.
"Do I need to wait for a moment before I perform the summoning ritual so that Ms. Evienne can rest?"-Jack
"Don't worry she is okay, besides only the two of you will perform the summoning ritual for today, you can perform it now Jack, just do what Joel did earlier and ask him for the paper that contains the incantation and magic circle"-Demetri.
"Okay, Joel!"-Jack
Jack walks towards Joel and asks for the paper that contains the incantation ad magic circle then walks towards the pillar, where Evienne is already waiting. Jack performs the familiar summoning and not for long the egg appears, the same as always, he places the egg in the fire in the cauldron beside the familiar egg of Joel.
"I see that everything is going well"-Chairman David.
"Chairman David, yes everything is going well, how is the talk with the other HA Chairmen about the familiar summoning"-Demetri.
"We haven't talked yet, I just told them that I needed to talk to them about something, we all decided to talk later tonight if you are not doing anything maybe you can join the meeting"-Chairman David.
"Sure thing Chairman David no problem"-Demetri.
We watch as Evienne transforms into her human form and walks toward us. Chairman David approach her and make sure she was okay. We even saw him, kiss Evienne on the cheeks. We all feel cheesy.
We waited for the familiar eggs to hatch. Joel, just as expected, summoned the Crafter Slime and summoned a total of three of it. At first, Joel doesn't know what to feel about the slimes but when they climbed up him and rest on his neck, head, and back, the slimes cooling and heating effect make his body comfortable, and you can see it in his face. Jack summoned two lightning wolves. We also waited for the familiars to get their strength back.
"Are they okay?"-Jack.
"Yeah, the familiars are like this a few minutes after they were hatch, so don't worry they are okay"-Demetri.
After a few moments of waiting, the familiars are okay now.
"You know, at first I don't know what to feel about these slimes because of how they felt the first time I touch them, but now, I love them, they feel so good, they are curing every pain in my body"-Joel
"That's why they are the perfect companion for Alchemist, they do that when their companion feels sore, they rest on top of it"-Demetri.
"Oh, they are good, it feels good. so what are the other things that they can do?"-Joel.
"Besides that, just like their name, they are Crafter slime, you feed them with something, and they can duplicate it, feed them with all the materials, including the instruction and what you want it to look like, and they can make it, and for their other abilities, you can discover it for yourself, it's part of having a familiar discovering what they are capable of, what they can do, you know"-Demetri.
"Okay, I better start working on Ms. Evienne's necklace so that she can contact her sister"-Joel.
"We also need to go, I needed to do something for a friend of mine, Evienne and I will come back later for the meeting"-Demetri.
"Okay, Demetri"-Chairman David.
We are about to leave when the lightning wolves started growling in one direction. Evienne also started to be alarmed by something that she reverted back to her original form and was ready for any attack. The other familiars that were inside the shadows also started to come out and growl in the same direction.
A portal formed from the direction the familiars were growling and its aura was very different from the portals that already appeared. This one is much stronger than others. And its aura, it gives off the same aura that I felt when I was in the presence of the darkness fragment.
"Boss!"-Kaya
I know Kaya, this is a portal made by the darkness fragment.
