When I finished reading Brakos' Stats I had a few questions "ok so I am glad that other people's Profiles will look similar but I have questions."
"Ask away," He said.
"ok well, question one is... YOU CAN STOP TIME!!!" I shouted.
"Temporarily yes. I can but I must warn you that I will only use it in dire situations, I will not let you use it to do some last-minute studying or steal something with no one noticing."
I nodded and continued "Question 2 what is with your massive amount of Magic and Mana?"
"When your Magic reaches a certain point you will understand but I won't say anything else until then," he said not giving me an answer.
I looked at him annoyed but continued "Question 3 then, some of your information is hidden. Is that a 'power-level thing' or a 'you don't want me knowing' thing?"
Brakos thought for a moment and said "All of the above." with a playful smile.
I smirked back and asked my next question "Are you limiting your power and what I can ask you to do when I summon you?"
He shook his head "No I am actually that strong. I may be a primordial spirit and Rank 10 but I am very weak, weaker than some Rank 5 spirits I know. As you become more powerful and I use other powers you will be able to see more of my skills but for now, that is all I can let you see."
"To be clear, that doesn't mean you can only ask me to use what you can see. I can use my other skills, I just won't tell you what I can do until you need them. Most spirits will not reveal everything to you right away and they will keep some powers hidden."
"Ah, I see." nodding my head,
"Ok, next question. It says here [Domain: The Library] in Active Skills, what does that mean."
Brakos looked at me with a weird expression and said "A [Domain] is a powerful form of magic that increases your own power. The Library is my [Domain] as it is the place I rule over."
"I wouldn't recommend looking into it right now, instead focus on making yourself stronger." He avoided my gaze while explaining and only one thought came to my mind. 'suspicious.' But I decided I wouldn't press the matter further.
"Alright, now last main question. It says Conditions to Evolve does that mean you can still grow stronger?"
"Yes and no. I know the conditions to evolve but I have no interest in doing so. I'm not a fighter and if I do get in a fight all I have to do is enter the library, no one can enter without my knowledge and I can remove anyone I want with just a thought. I know it is a cowardly thing to do but I don't really care."
"Though if you want other spirits to evolve you can feel free to do so as long as they want to as well."
"Good to know." I said and flipped to the next page listing Volt Stats but before I started reading I remembered "Oh we should probably have Volt here with us for this."
"Volt?" Brakos asked as he didn't know I named Volt.
"Yes, Volt the Lightning Tiger, he asked for a name when we made the contract," I said and proceeded to summon him not paying attention to Brakos' shocked expression.
"Volt," I said and the same Magic circle appeared as before crackling with lightning but this one appeared floating vertically in the air.
"Why do summoning circles only appear vertically on walls or floating in the air and not on the ground?" I curiously asked as Volt stepped out of the circle.
"It's how you tell what you are summoning. Spirits circles are verticles and the spirit steps out, infernal circles are on the ground with the demon rising or climbing out from it and Celestial circles float above your head in the air with a celestial falling or descending from it," he said as we watched Volt walk over.
^Hello, Jackson is there a problem?^ Volt asked me giving Brakos the side eye.
"No, there is no problem but I wanted to talk with you." I said to Volt so he didn't worry and turned to brakos "I have explained that I am a primogenitor and an Otherworlder already"
"not surprised. Knowing you, you wouldn't have accepted the contract if he didn't know" Brakos said looking at me then turned to Volt.
He knelt down to Volt who was shaking slightly and said. "Based on how you act around me, Jack must have told you I am a primordial. You don't have to worry about offending me or me anything, I am not like the others and have no interest in combat. Besides Jackson trusts you so I will as well."
"All I ask is that you don't reveal to anyone else that I am helping someone, it could cause problems. can we agree on that?" Brakos asked Volt in a kind voice, trying to not seem like a scary being who could kill Volt with a thought.
Volt nodded and said to both of us I understand but I do have one question. Why Jack of all People and why did you give him so much?^
Hearing this question piqued my interest as this was a question I had myself but never asked.
Brakos smiled and said "I won't deny that I have my own agenda but Jack isn't a part of it. Why it was Jack... well I felt bad that he died so young and yet had so much potential that I had to help."
"I know that isn't much of a reason but hey, I'm old and like to see new stories be written," he said with a laugh.
"As for why I gave him so much power... I guess I don't really know," he said and paused thinking with both of us looking at Brakos confused.
Brakos continued and explained "I haven't intervened in the mortal world for a while and seeing someone like Jack made me want to help him so much more. I guess it was a little bit of pride and ego that made me want to do more than most would and help him get strong."
Both me and volt looked at Brakos with confusion but before we could ask for more he told us "I know you have more questions but I don't have an answer right now. Let's continue like we were before."
"um sure," I said after a few seconds seeing that Brakos would not answer any more questions related to that topic and diverted my attention to Volt and the books.
I explained what we were doing and showed Volt what I had learned so far and told him that we were going to check his stats if he was ok with it.
Volt agreed and we checked his stats.

I read through Volts page and was surprised but one thing caught my mind right away.
"Volt is only at the level of an E+ Rank! his stats are more than double mine, how am I higher ranked than him?" I shouted in confusion
Brakos placed a hand on my shoulder to calm me down and said. "You are equivalent of an F+ or E- Rank Adventurer, but because you have the [Heros will] skill you are ranked higher"
Volt Nodded with what Volt said but looked happy seeing me act confused and jealous when I realized I was ranked incorrectly because of a skill I didn't want.
I didn't question much else as I expected everything else. We continued and I checked the section for the books but sadly all that was displayed was their Evolution Conditions which are as follows.
{Leither Book}
{Rank 1}
{Books registered: 1/1}
{Notebook}
{Blue Book}
{Rank 1}
<0/100XP>
<0/500>
{Black Book}
{Rank 1}
<0/500>
Every Evolution requires me to infuse Spiritual Energy into the books.
When I asked Brakos and Volt explained that Spirits cultivate their Energy over time but an infusion from me can speed up the process.
