Morning came and Ban woke up from his not so long slumber.

He took a glance at the little Demon Ant sleeping on his shoulder as he heaved a sigh of relief.

The little Demon Ant is the solid proof that he was not dreaming from before and all that happened was real. Including his tragic fate of not being able to become a Summoner due to him lacking a Monster.

He then touched the [Item] Dimensional Storage and felt relieved after feeling that it was still there. He then checked every detail regarding the System and finally settled on his own Status Profile that he was not able to check until now.

Ban felt elated upon reading those details. It was just yesterday that he was still a normal unranked human, and yet at the span of a day, he had already become an F-Apprentice Rank human.

Kuys wanted his Monster, Eva to ascend to the next Rank but what he didn’t know was that Eva had already ascended to F-Apprentice Rank yesterday, even bringing Ban along with her advancement.

He now has four [Skills] in which he knew was quite extraordinary. After all, in the City, a person owning a single [Skill] can already be considered a celebrity, how much more him, who has four [Skills] in total.

However, Ban does not have the intention to announce it to the world. He’s afraid of the consequences that it might bring.

At least, not until he’s already strong enough to defend himself, from Beast, and Humans themselves, he does not have the intention to stand in the limelight.

His real enemy was not even in the city, and he knew they were far more terrifying than the City Lord himself.

He doesn’t have a Core Manual yet, but he did not take it to heart. After all, if he could let little Eva ascend again, he would also ascend along with her.

The word Grimoire after his Beast Tattoo was new to Ban as he recalled that it doesn’t have a name before. He also noticed earlier that his Beast Tattoo had somewhat changed its form a little bit.

Although for him, it still looks like a terrifying unknown Beast rather than a Grimoire just like what its name stated.

He was confused about the N/A, Ancient, and Sky words after each [Skills], Title and Techniques. Although the N/A was quite understandable as, Not Available, the others he did not know.

He asked the Almighty Summoner System regarding it but it seems that it doesn’t want to answer it. However, Ban already had an initial guess on what they implied.

Namely, the Grade or the Rank.

He heard about it from the Adventurers before, about [Skills] having a Grade or Rank. From what he recalled, one Adventurer who has a [Skill] mentioned that the grade of his [Skill] was called Mortal.

Ban felt his head spinning thinking about those complex things. He did not waste any more of his time thinking about them as he proceeded to check another important thing.

Namely, the little Demon Ant on his shoulder.

Little Eva was still sleeping soundly so Ban carefully moved her head that used his shoulder as a pillow. Ban then slowly got up from the bed and marveled at Little Eva’s new form.

He was not able to observe it clearly yesterday night as Kuys suddenly went up to check on him. With that, he could only force himself to sleep, and leave the observation for tomorrow.

From what he observed, little Eva had become even cuter due to her current form.

Although her arms and legs had become slimmer, Ban knew that they still packed a punch and was even stronger than before.

He also could not help but touch and feel her thin crystal wings.

And due to that, little Eva’s black eyes slowly turned brighter until it settled on a glossy black color.

She was now fully awake and upon noticing Ban, she hurriedly stood up and yawned like a human.

Krrr! Krrr! Krrr!

Her two sharp mandibles moved as it produced the Krrr sound as if greeting Ban a good morning.

Ban smiled upon hearing that before he greeted her back.

“Little Eva, return to your normal form for now. Grandpa Kuys might suspect something if he sees you in that form.”

Little Eva nodded her head and immediately transformed back to her normal form. Her body glowed with a red light for a second before her form returned to what it was before. However, her normal form was no longer as chubby as before.

Ban did not mind it as he knew that it was an effect due to her evolving into a higher kind. It was also the same reason why her Rank dropped to X-Mortal Rank again.

Although he felt sad about her Ranked Down, he soon moved on as he thought that it was only reasonable. After all, her combat form and current physique was definitely stronger than before when she was at F-Apprentice Rank.

After her transformation, Little Eva hurriedly jumped on Ban’s shoulder, her favorite spot.

Ban patted her head as he walked towards the door. He still needs to help Grandpa Kuys prepare the Kuys Bar before he goes to the Adventurers Guild.

However, before he could step out of his room, the virtual screen of, Almighty Summoner System suddenly materialized itself in front of his eyes, along with a new mission.
