Chapter 35 - Mysterious grimoire.

But time soon gave his system right when he saw his two enemies' character turn into a pixel; a fact that showed that he had not really gotten rid of the problem, but put it on standby.

Sighing with a frustrated look but a little relieved, he focused on Jane.

Seeing that the latter still did not react, his heart froze in his chest.

'Something's wrong with the skill King Tamers had used on them. Even if the draconian language is considered the most powerful language, since magic and power even reside in the words she'll pronounce in this language, it is not omnipotent.'

While he wandered in his own thoughts, Epsis and Lilith were busy picking up the drops left by Kevin and King Tamers.

The thing Lith wanted to acquire at all costs was among the drops, King Tamers' book.

Seeing this item, Isaac had another wave of surprise. 'There is no doubt that this book is a grimoire. But how is it that she...-

Before he finishes his speculations, Lith hands him the book. "With this, it is no longer necessary to break the enchantment that hinders this girl's mind." She said with a charming smile.

But her smile looked more like a demonic smile than seductive in the eyes of Isaac, who understood her intentions.

He shakes his head to get rid of all the unnecessary questions that raged in his heart before answering Lith. "Yeah, with that, it will be possible to free her from this obstacle without delay."

Instantly, confusion almost took hold of her soul when she heard Isaac's words. "... But master, wouldn't it be wise and beneficial for you to leave her in this state? In addition to erasing any possibility she will betray you in the future, you can use her as a useful and obedient pawn, and also to...-

"Rendy!"

Her body stiffened when she heard Isaac scold her while coldly shouting her name.

But the confusion in her eyes soon left Isaac speechless.

'Sigh, it's my fault if she is so insensitive and detached to the fate of others. At that time, I thought it was the right solution for these two to be faithful to me whatever the situation. So my anger is a bit silly.'

While mumbling these words, he inhales a large amount of breath of air before releasing it all at once in a warm breath that carries over his anger with it.

He then looks straight into Lith's eyes. "Listen to me, I am aware that you are doing all this for my own interest but there are things you still do not know; This thing is none other than gratitude to these two."

At the same time, Epsis returned to them with the other drops and the two prisoners she had captured, who were struggling to free themselves from her steel wire.

Isaac takes a brief look at her before sighing with sadness when he sees her dragging the two 'prisoners' like animals.

'She is no better than her sister. - These two are not only simple maids gifted in singular warfare but also inherited all the characteristics and knowledge of the character I embodied in the game.

-I saw them as kinds of hard disks in which I recorded all the information I had collected from my raids and experiments.

-Military strategies, warfare, intelligence and infiltration techniques, etc. Even my experiments on potions and others are all recorded in their small skulls.

-And unlike me who forgets information as I learned new knowledge, they probably remember everything I had recorded in their memoirs.

-To put it raw, they are my most powerful assets, but also my most formidable enemies if I can't use them properly.

-...

By trying to put his messy and overheated brain in order, Isaac ends up sitting on the slab of the gas pump.

After two long minutes of silence, he finally raises his head towards both. "For now, free this girl and this knight from mind control; I have a debt to this girl and the mistress of this blood knight." He then addresses Lilith.

Nodding her head, the latter performs the task that Isaac had just entrusted to her.

She opens the grimoire and navigates between the pages before stopping on the last page that had Jane's sketch; reading the information with a simple glance.

She then looks at Isaac. "Master, to be able to free them, you must pact with this grimoire that no longer has an owner. By doing this, the..-

"I know, I know." Isaac cut her off.

He then bites his right thumb, leaving a small scratch with a few drops of his visible blood.

Seeing his actions, Lilith no longer got lost in the explanations; she approaches with the grimoire open in her hand.

Isaac then leafed through the pages before stopping at the first page.

Once on the blank page, he puts his bloody thumb, leaving an imprint of his blood on it.

-Whoosh...!

The page gradually turned red following the contact of Isaac's blood with it.

Gradually, the page showed Isaac's information, as does his system.

Despite his curiosity, and the abnormal silence of his system that did not comment on his actions, Isaac gives priority to Jane and Abdel's freedom.

The process was not rocket science, he just repeated the same process by letting a few drops of his blood land on the two independent pages that contain Jane and Abdel's information.

The same reddish glow then manifested on the two pages, which contained the information of two, gradually becoming white and blank.

As a result, having a lower level than Abdel, Jane instantly lost consciousness.

But Abdel, for his part, looked around him with confused eyes that could not be hidden by his helmet.

Seeing him leaning on his sword to keep his balance, Isaac guessed that he was struggling to cope with the headache that put Jane in K.O.

He, therefore, gives him time to think calmly while then taking a brief look at Lith, who had cushioned Jane's fall,...but without commenting.

'This grimoire may be a high-ranking item. Even if my level would not allow me to see Abdel's stats, all his information was recorded on this page.' He looks at the blank page with particular interest.

'If I'm not mistaken, it's not a grimoire of taming or slavery, but a superior grimoire.' To check his theory, he continues to navigate through the other pages that were now blank.

Apart from the hell wolf's sketch, the grimoire had no other information about the former players his maids had just killed.

He then looks at Epsis. "Epsis, leave a drop of your blood on this page." He said after leafing through the blood-red grimoire and stopping on one of the blank pages.

Unlike her sister, Epsis was less talkative. Slightly nodding her head, she made a small notch in her hand and let two drops of her blood fall on the blank page indicated by Isaac.

Then, blood-red writings appeared on the page, irretrievably captivating the attention of the three.

[Cindy Fulgar Jefferson: Lvl: Demi-goddess(Sealed)]

[HP: #%%] [EP: $>%]

[STR: %#*] [...

[Jack's maid]

[Legacies: queen's beast men (Legendary)/Assassin seasoned (Legendary).]

[Skills: Steel Wires (SSS+), absolute shadow control (Divine), daggers master(#%#%\), immunity against magical/spiritual attacks (divine)...

...

'Uh! She's cheated...- no, too cheated!' Isaac's book almost slipped off his hands when he saw this relevant information about Cindy.

'By forgetting her level, I realize that this grimoire is not as powerful as I imagined.' He concludes by looking at the indecipherable writings in the grimoire with somewhat disappointing air.

But the next moment, Lilith imitates her sister by leaving a drop of her blood on the same page.

"Huh?"

Seeing Isaac's confusion, she gives him a graceful but a little sad smile. "I am aware that you don't yet trust us, these necklaces are proof of this. But you will eventually change your mind, master."

"...Well, it's for personal reasons. But you will have to chain your curiosity and keep it in a golden cage until I find the right words to speak to you when the time comes." As if he were expecting Lilith's question, Isaac gives these explanations.

Lilith nods slightly while Cindy had no other expression than apathy.

In the same second, the grimoire, not determined to let others have their own time, becomes noisy as it turns its pages before stopping at a random blank page.

[Rendy Fulgar Jefferson: Lvl Demi-goddess(Sealed)]

[HP: #%%] [EP: $>%]

[STR: %#*] [...

[Jack's maid]

[Legacy: Descendant of the first vampire queen (Legendary)/Descendant of the golden dragon(Legendary).]

[Skills: Golden Dragon Language (legendary), absolute blood control (SSS+), ultimate mastery of magical skills (#%#%\), immunity against physical/spiritual attacks (divine)...

...

'The one is an assassin immune to magical attacks while the other is a mage immune to physical attacks.' Isaac could not help but shudder as he remembered the previous battle between Epsis and the other two.

'She avoided the magical attacks of the wolf and Abdel just to give false hopes to her enemies.

Anyway, a warrior immune to magical attacks is really a mage's worst nightmare. Moreover, her shadow skill gives her almost total immunity against physical attacks since she can switch between her material and immaterial shape, as she had done to surprise Abdel, who believed he had sliced over an illusion.

On the other hand, a magus who has immunity from physical attacks is just as frightening as Epsis. Sigh, I'm happy to have spent almost all of my savings to create both of them and give them all the characteristics I could.

If I had rather known that they will come alive, I'd have invested all my money in them to boost their skills and give them more unique traits. In a world where even gods are not invincible, demi-goddesses are just a joke.'

Focusing on Abdel, Isaac realized that the latter's condition has improved a little.

"You look in shape, corrupt knight." He says with a sneaky smile to tease Abdel.

But against all odds, the latter squeezes his left fist and lightly taps twice his chest in a row. "You have my gratitude for helping me get rid of this curse." He said in a heavy tone.

It was only after hearing his words of gratitude that Isaac finally understood that he sent him a sign of respect.

Smiling slightly at Abdel, Isaac answers him. "Don't think about it, I did it to return your mistress's favors."

"..."

"Speaking about her, you may have to go back to her, she was more negatively affected by your loss than anything else." He continued by noticing Abdel's silence.

"..."

Even if Abdel did not respond to Isaac, the nod he gave him was more than enough to describe his feelings of gratitude.

Expecting nothing from him, Isaac just watched him take out the same teleportation parchment that Jamil had.

'It was probably Jamil who provided him with this parchment. He also gave me a few by order of Maria just in case I intend to visit this latter.'

...

'Well, I feel that the night is going to be long.' Isaac whispers in his mind after Abdel's departure, leaving him only with his two maids and an escort still unconscious.
