Yeah, no. We are not delving into the dungeons YET.

We had to prepare a bit more before that, mostly me wanting to see a few things and experiment with Kireina.

And by experimenting I didn’t mean anything kinky, I mean experiment how she works like a summon.

So I made her do a few things by herself, such as… I don’t know, throwing a kick or a punch into the air.

“Are you sure, Master?” she asked rather concerned.

“Yes, I don’t think you will blow the entire edifice off with your punch, right?” I asked.

“Well, no, I will make sure to control my strength… Alright, here we go…” said Kireina, as she suddenly got into a straight stance, her left leg slowly raised, and then, she moved faster than my eye could perceive, like a flash of purple color.

Boom!

Her leg hit the air with a strong boom! Sound, what?!

And shockwaves began to resonate through the entire room, most of my light novels and manga fell off the bookshelf there, and the lamp broke.

There were also cracks in the wall…

Just how strong is she!? And you’re telling me she’s Level 1?

“Ah! Master light novels and manga…! I will get them in place immediately!” she said, apologizing for her kick shockwave, which made all the precious literature I have accumulated fall to the floor.

“You don’t have to worry, the Ragnarök is close so… it will be rather pointless to care about such stuff as much… Ah, now that I think about it, if people are going to die all around the world… then what about the manga and light novel I follow? They will all end up without an ending… How horrendous… Yeah, this is really depressing…”

“Master you don’t have to get like that… These things… Well, I know they had brought you a lot of joy in your life, but the important thing now is to survive… At least, maybe you could conserve these books inside your Inventory, what do you think?” asked Kireina with a gentle demeanor.

Hm… She’s right, there’s no time to get down because of such things.

“You’re right, let me save them… Ad the whole bookshelf too, why not…”

After that, we finally came back to testing, and I concluded a few things as Kireina tested giving punches into the air and kicks again (this time in an empty room), she also tested appearing and disappearing, and also conjuring her type of magic abilities.

It seems that summons constantly drains my Mana by materializing like Kireina is doing right now.

However, if it is only her, it only drains my mana by around 20 per minute, but I can regenerate a bit over 100 per minute, so I can maintain her like this indefinitely.

Summons also don’t have mana, any magic attack they perform drains my own mana. When Kireina used her Vampire Skill to conjure a single blood blade, it took a whopping 50 of my Mana…

I have to keep leveling and increase my max mana or my summons won’t be able to exert their power completely.

Another thing, summons can materialize or become ethereal, or even be stored back into the System, inside a function named “Hero Barracks” where any summon can be stored indefinitely, inside of there it feels as if time stopped for them.

By materializing, summons become completely made of flesh, they even have blood vessels, a beating heart, can eat, and even go to the bathroom, this was tested when I held hands with Kireina, afterwards, to prove this point further, she hugged me tightly and pressed my ear into her chest, and I was able to hear her heart beating… and it was very warm too.

Anyways, by becoming ethereal it is as if she became air, and cannot damage nor be damaged, but it’s not like she can abuse this in the battle to dodge, as it takes around a minute for her to turn into ethereal and then back to the material.

In an ethereal form, she only drains 10% of the original mana she would drain while being materialized and can recover her HP slowly if she was wounded, if I send her wounded into the barracks, she will stay wounded though.

She can also see around my surroundings and speak to me as if she were some kind of ghost.

Lastly, I checked her current Skills, which seem to be passive skills that also grant her special abilities which could be used offensively.

[Realm Menace of Lust (S)]

The Skill represents the wielder of the Sin of Lust, which brings a wide variety of abilities, however, none of such abilities can affect the Summoner unless he desires to be affected by them after being asked to.

Charming Beauty: As the embodiment of the Sin of Lust, your beauty is unparalleled and your charm can even convince people to do your bidding, as long as they are weak-willed.

Succubus Queen: As the embodiment of the Sin of Lust, your libido is endless and you can have intercourse indefinitely, the more intercourse is done, the more vitality and mana can be acquired. Skill Points and EXP can also be acquired through this method.

Illusion Master: As the embodiment of the Sin of Lust, you are capable of creating illusions that play with people’s emotions, perceptions, and warp their beliefs and minds. This can go as far as creating complete illusions of appearance to brainwashing. However, strong enough targets might be able to fight back with enough strength and willpower or discern illusions from reality.

[Vampire (S)]

The Skill represents the wielder as a Vampire, which brings a variety of abilities.

Vampire Weaknesses: You are weak to Sunlight and will cause constant damage to your Vitality if it hits you directly, Silver burns your skin and can ignore your defenses, and you take double damage from Holy, Fire, and Light Elements. These weaknesses can be lessened if the user drinks enough blood, with up to 80% decrease in weaknesses effectiveness.

Bloodsucking: As a Vampire, you can feed on the blood of your unsuspected victims and regain vitality and mana through it. The more blood you drink the more bonuses to your stats you gain, but the less you drink, the weaker you grow.

Bloodwork: You are capable of manipulating your own blood to generate all kinds of attacks, but vitality will be drained, alongside your summoner’s Mana. Damage is calculated by your Magic Stat.

Vampire’s Supernatural Senses: As a Vampire, your senses are increased to supernatural levels, you can perceive what ordinary people cannot, and see through the planes of the living and the dead, alongside being able to perceive danger easily, amongst other things.

Immortal Body: As long as you keep yourself well-fed with blood, your body can regenerate constantly even without changing into ethereal form, limbs can be restored with ease and an attack into your heart or lungs will not be deadly either.

[Grotesque Transformation: Nyarlathotep (S)]

As an entity that can shapeshift indefinitely like Azathoth’s Avatar, Nyarlathotep, you gain a variety of abilities.

Shapeshifting: As long as you are given enough mana, you can shapeshift your form to whatever is within your mind, however, there are limitations to mass, and your strength will not increase by simply growing more muscle nor any of such things, and it could be considered to be merely aesthetic… But that is good enough to deceive others.

Horrifying Existence: Harness your power as a shapeshifter and become a horrifying fiend, causing [Fear] to any target while gaining a temporal boost to all your capabilities while in this grotesque form. Your flesh can keep growing and hastening your regeneration, and you become capable of devouring anything with your monstrous maws, but after the transformation is over, you enter into a weakened state and need to rest for at least 3 hours.

Nyarlathotep: as the one crowned with the name of this entity, your very existence warps the perception of reality around any target you deem as an enemy, constantly inflicting direct damage into their minds, causing a series of effects, such as hallucinations, horror, confusion, and insanity.

…

Well… that was a lot.
