'I'm serious.'
Aaron just rolled his eyes and turned to Aurora.
"Mom, do you have another summoning book? This guy here is useless, he only knows how to eat."
'How dare you!'
"Shut up!"
"You can understand... Wait, is it a boy or girl?" Lilly asked with widened eyes.
"This Blob sound like an over-age man." Aaron said placing the Blob on the ground.
"I'm sorry Aaron, I don't have another summoning book. You might have gained a useless familiar, but I know with time. It will prove to be something extraordinary." Aurora said with a reassuring smile.
'I like her already.'
'We all do.' Aaron answered, and nodded at Aurora.
"I understand Mom, This guy might be hiding his true potential." Aaron said, trying to convince himself that this Blob was something extraordinary.
'You know I can hear your thought, You might be my Master. But you also have to respect me, If you think I'm useless; feed Me and I'll show you.'
Aaron thought for a moment and said to Aurora: "Mom, he said I should feed him, then we'll see what he's capable of."
Aurora was stunned. 'This is strange, A new summoned familiar shouldn't be able to communicate with his/her Master, Is Aaron's different?' She turned to Lilly.
"Can Snow also talk to you, Lilly?"
"Uh? Nope, I haven't heard anything from Snow." Lilly answered, she and Snow stared at the red Blob on the ground with a slight frown.
'Why are these two staring at me?!'
"Shut up, You said I should feed you, I'll do just that."
Everyone stared at Aaron, as he walked into the Kitchen and brought a plate of roasted meat.
'What the hell is this, Master?! Did I tell you I'm carnivorous?!!'
"What happened? Why is his eyes wide open?" Lilly asked in mild confusion.
'Master, I can feel a powerful energy in this guy. Maybe he's not so useless.' Diamond landed on Aurora's shoulder.
'Really?'
Diamond nodded.
"Then what do you eat?" Aaron asked, not answering Lilly's question.
'I eat energy, retard! Not physical food!!'
Aaron frowned slightly and turned to Aurora. "He said he eats Energy? How the hell am I going to find Energy to give him?"
"Energy?" Aurora thought for a moment, then nodded. "Wait for me." She walked towards her room.
"Why is this Blob what to eat Energy?" Lilly squat down in front of the red Blob.
'Don't you dare call me a Blob!'
Snow flew towards the meat and leaded on it, Moment Next; She started eating it.
"Can't you be like Snow for once?" Aaron asked in mild frustration.
'I'm a high blood, Master. I don't eat things Low-blood like this eat.'
"You?" Aaron was speechless.

Aurora walked back to them with a red Core in hand.
"Are you Kidding me?" Aaron muttered in a low voice.
{All Seeing Eyes.}
{Name: Skeleton Soldier's Core. Class: Epic. Info: Once a loyal soldier to the Demon Lord.}
"This is a Core of an Enraged-Stage Skeleton, The Skeleton is exceptional in swordsmanship and have a very high Defense. It took both Diamond and I to take it down even though I'm one realm above it." Aurora said with a smile, she crouched down and offer the Core to Blob.
"I'm giving it to you, As far as I know, Familiars aren't able to Absorb Cores; they grow stronger if their master grows stronger. But it seems you are different."
The Blob opened its mouth so wide, and swallowed the whole Core. The only thing they heard was the crushing sound of the core in its mouth.
{All Seeing Eyes}
{Name: ??(Shifter) Class: ??. Info: ??. Transformation(1/5): Skeleton Soldier. (Lv1).}
'What the butt?'
The next moment, everyone watched as the 30 centimeters Blob grew in size. Its body started expanding, talking an unknown shape, and in matter of 10 Seconds. A Red Skeleton stood in front of them, with a Red Broadsword in hand.
Aurora: "What?"
Aaron: ".....!!"
Diamond: "A Shifter?!"
Snow: "....."
Lilly: "WoW! That was Cool!!"
"How do I look now? Am I still useless?" The 6 feet tall red skeleton asked, staring at Aaron with his red eyes.

Aaron almost jumped up in joy seeing the Skeleton's Profile. 'Does that mean he could take the form and use the skills of any Monsters' Cores he absorbed? Any...?' He smirked and said:
"Wait here." He walked up to Lilly. "What about the Core I gave you?"
"Oh, It's in my bag. It's in the kitchen." Lilly quickly rushed to the Kitchen, and within 10 Seconds she rushed back with the Core.
"So..." Aaron took the Core from her and turned to his familiar. "If you absorb this, and changed to the Monster, I'll treat you to food; anytime."
"Slow down Master, I can only take the form of five Monsters with your current strength."
"My Current strength?" Aaron was stunned.
"It seems, this guy drew energy from you to be able to take more forms. So if you get stronger Aaron, The more from he could take."
"You are smart, Mom." The Skeleton said to Aurora, No one knew if he was smiling for not, because the guy was made of red bones.
"That means I have to get stronger. The lynx isn't strong enough, you'll only absorb the Cores of powerful Monsters, so you'll have all their skills and powers." He clenched his fist with a grin on his face. "We'll be feared by our enemies!" Aaron stared at the Skeleton for a moment then said:
"I'll call you, Protean."
The Skeleton thought for a moment and nodded. "I thought you are a retard, Master. But you are quite smart."
Lilly looked at Snow, who was busy eating the meat and sighed. 'What can you do Snow? Brother's Familiar is already this great. I wonder what you can do.'
'Enter the Saint Realm, and you'll find out.'
Lilly's eyes widened, she looked at Snow, who turned her head to her. "Snow just speak to me!" She exclaimed.
"Wow, That's lovely. My babies are very talented." Aurora said with a bright smile, while Aaron and the Skeleton facepalm themselves.
