"I, Evan Von Bourne, request the world's help. Draw a connection between me and the one who will become my friend and strength. Let us come together like we were at the beginning of the world."
At that, the magic circle glowed brightly, a little too brightly.
The light and magic power emitted were not ones that you would see in the magic circle to contract a mid-rank spirit.
'Is that little critter really a mid-rank?'
[The goddess 'Artemisia' rolls her eyes while saying 'obviously not'.]
The contract circle began to vibrate, radiating light. It not only sucked in his own mana, but it began to absorb the mana in the atmosphere.
[Kyaa, run! We're being sucked in!]
[Run!]
[As I expected, he's a-ma-zing-!]
[It's the birth of a contractor!]
[You stupid spirits! I said run!]
The little spirits flew around noisily like always, and as always, Evan ignored them. He appraised the little spirit that had somehow found its way into the magic circle.

"The fuck?!"
Evan could not be blamed for his 'exclamation'.
The result of his appraisal said it was a great spirit and not just any middle-ranked spirit. It's just that its strength was currently on the mid-level now.
While he was still dumbstruck, the little spirit had transformed into the form of a small Oriental dragon, about 50cm in length, and floated towards him in joy.
[Master!]
Hearing the feminine voice, Evan finally noticed the gender on the status board in front of him.
"So, you're a girl, this might be troublesome, I don't know how to take care of girls."
[The goddess 'Artemisia' says that spirits are different from humans and do not need to be treated like so.]
[What big sis says is true!]
[The goddess 'Artemisia' chokes on her t-.]
Message retracted by sender. |
"It's too late Artemisia. Besides that, to think she could see the notifications too, huh?"
[The goddess 'Artemisia' hurriedly explains it's not what you think. She also says she has no idea why the spirit refers to her as 'sister'.]
[The 'Eternal of time and destruction' says it is because she was affected by the residual divine power of the goddess 'Artemisia' dwelling on the body of 'Evan'.
This helped her evolution and also created a faint, almost non-existent connection between the two.]
"On? Not in?"
[The 'Eternal of time and destruction' says you should have noticed you possess high resistance against divinity, the divinity tries to enhance your body but it can't because of your resistance.
You will also die if she uses an amount high enough to bypass your resistance.]
"Tch...never thought I'd hate a resistance so much, why do I even have that anyway?
Is it Adaptive Evolution?
Does it think the divinity is harmful and is making my body resistant to it?"
There was no reply this time but Evan didn't think too much of it and continued to pet the little golden dragon that was resting on his shoulders.
"Do you have a human form you can take?"
[Yes!]
As she replied, she activated her body transformation and transformed into an adorable girl, whose height did not seem to reach 20cm, floating above his shoulder.
She wore a delicate black silk dress and silk gloves and had straight black hair that curled at the ends.
She had snow-white skin, eyes that shone with noble gold, and an appearance like a porcelain doll. It was a shame. If she were human, she would have been a girl of incomparable beauty.
[Wow, a great lightning spirit!]
[It's the first time I've seen one!]
[How beautiful. She stole my heart.]
[Heart… Thief?]
[Ah, she is a spirit contractor's contracted spirit!]
Evan was shocked at the reactions of the other spirits,
'Aren't these guys a little too carefree, still she would indeed be considered cute by some standards.'
[How does it look? I can't make it bigger until I reach a higher level]
She said as she floated around his head and sat on his head. Evan chuckled at her childish actions and replied.
"No problem, Ah! Lemme try something."
He held her and placed her on his palm, he then looked into her yellow eyes and activated his mystic eye skill. 10 seconds later, he saw an alert.

'Tch...same as in the game, why didn't you reduce this?'
Artemisia did not reply so he assumed she was busy doing other things and carried on with his plans.
'Time to think of how to get the fuck outta here by tonight.'
Evan planned to run away before but he was only going to do that about a week after returning from the dungeon.
He had a lot of knowledge about some events of the future due to the game, he also knew a lot of locations of hidden items and artifacts he might use.
The original plan was to send the Duke's knights to get whatever artifacts he could from the capital city, Gerfast, before finally leaving.
However, he knew that his movements would be closely watched after the day's earlier events so he had no choice but to make a break for it tonight.
'Also, this has been on my mind for a while.
Since the game was a simulation of the future, there has to be a reference the 'future' was based on.
I don't think that the events happening in the game were all Artemisia's ideas, she had to have gotten them from somewhere.
I assumed it was just her and her subordinates that thought everything up, but after knowing about 'that' guy, it doesn't seem that way again.'
[The 'Eternal of time and destruction' stares at you in amusement]
"You can read my thoughts too, huh?
Oh well, answer me, will ya?
The game scenarios, are they events that would actually happen in the future? Perhaps a future you saw with your power of time? I don't think the system would call you the 'E-"
Evan was abruptly cut off by two warning messages.
[The 'Eternal of time and destruction' requests you do not say his title aloud.]
Warning: User has almost attempted to break the law of #########. Please refrain from such actions in the future. |
"The law of what now?"
[The 'Eternal of time and destruction' says you should become a master level existence first before you can know, a bronze level existence is not qualified to know of the law's existence.
He also says you should not casually utter his title in this world for there are consequences. Your thoughts are enough.]
Evan looked at the messages and sighed.
He was tired of being told he was too weak.
This only gave him more of a reason for him to leave the Duke's mansion and go to dungeons he knew of from the game.
'Especially Kasteblum's dungeon. The double experience would be welcome.'
He cleaned up what was left of the spirit contracting circle before taking a seat at the desk in his room.
'After today's events, they are definitely gonna get me to stay at home a lot more.
They might even stop me from levelling up until they figure out what my skill is. That would be disastrous as it would prevent me from getting the weapon I want.
Can't have that now.
I'm gonna move with the assumption that the events of the game are future events that would definitely happen, as such, the negative ones should be prevented.'
[The 'Eternal of time and destruction' laughs heartily]
He ignored the headache he was having due to the higher being's laughter and went on with his plans. Taking a pen and paper, he wrote down the major events to be stopped.
"The Eight disasters;
The Dulhan Attack,
The Lizard Lord's Outbreak,
The Seven Deadly Sins Massacre,
The Wolf of the End,
Fall of the Desert Country,
The Basilisk's Stone Festival,
The Barbarian King's uprising, and lastly, the worst of them all;
The Ancient Demonic Dragon's Resurrection."
