Chapter 76 Beast Familiar Summoning
Chapter 76 Beast Familiar Summoning
-----
The wolf in front of us seemed to be quite a problem. I didn't know how to "call it back".
Indeed, it was impossible to bring it back to the spear, once summoned, the summon would remain until it dies…
This is indeed quite a problem. I can't go showing it off to everyone. Although I could mask it as another Spirit… But it would be annoying to explain to everyone how I suddenly got a second spirit out of absolutely nowhere.
Once the mana was used, the spirit remains as it is and it doesn't drain any more Mana, so I suppose that's better, but it cannot grow stronger either, it will remain at the strength it is summoned as.
Spirits can grow stronger as the Spear does, but perhaps there are some hidden values that could strengthen them somehow…
Due to that, I tried checking if this wolf made of darkness and red light had any Status whatsoever, and it had. However, compared to our own Status, it was very minimalistic.

Is this really the power of a simple Demonic Spear? I feel like Gluttony might have changed after I named it, this is seriously out of my expectations. Although it cannot level up or something, it has a Skill, and even… Buffs?
What is this? I had never thought I would find a new Grimoire Function through the acquisition of a Cursed Weapon. This is interesting and fascinating… However, I cannot help but find this entire thing rather ridiculous.
Now on top of normal Spirits I can summon these weaker Beast Spirits as backup… Is this Grimoire building me into becoming something similar to my previous life?
The more Mana I have, the easier it will become to summon duplicates of this Spirit… Imagining an entire pack of them is rather interesting.
But for now, I could summon a second one, but I don't think I will, it is already very weak, and it would be a waste of Mana… Also, I don't know where I can put them.
Actually, I could summon many of them over the days and if I can find somewhere where I can store them… but perhaps I shouldn't try doing that for now.
"Despite the intimidating appearance… It is very weak, without even having to look at the Grimoire Status… It is very weak…" sighed Eleanora at my side.
"Yeah, it could probably get killed by another gray wolf, probably…" I sighed.
"…"
The wolf seemed to look at us with sadness in his empty eyes, I think he understood our words.
Hmm… Ignoring his eyes, I can see that he has special things. First of all, the Skill
-----
[Furious Bite]
Furiously Bite a foe with its deadly jaws, increased damage dealt by +20%.
-----
Oh, it can use this without the need for Mana? I suppose it is better than I thought, it can increase its damage dealt by +20% as long as it bites an enemy.
Now the problem is getting to bite a foe without getting killed beforehand…
Aside from that, it has… Buffs.
While it is summoned, the Gray Wolf has increased my Agility and Dexterity by +1…
I see, so this is another part of these mysterious Beast Summons, they can increase my Stats as long as they're summoned. I think this is quite a big surprise. If I can summon many, or get new types of summons that could give different enhancements, things might become better for me.
I explained these mechanics to Eleanora, as she nodded and found it rather interesting.
"I see… It is quite a pity I cannot buff you though! I don't like these summons, they might end up making me seem as useless!" she said.
"…I doubt it, they're weak. I would say they're more like expendable summons, while you're a main leader of them." I said.
"Oh! I guess I can think of it like that." Said Eleanora.
She was very simpleminded, I see.
And then, there was another thing…
Growth.
What is this Growth thing? It shows one out of twenty…
-----
Growth: 1/20
Required Spirit Orbs of the same type as the Beast to strengthen the Beast Rank.
-----
Oh, I see. So the more Spirit Orbs of Gray Wolves the spear absorbs, the stronger this Wolf can become.
And I can summon it over and over again too… Hm, this is indeed quite broken. Is there no limit to it other than my own Mana?
Well, if it enhances the Beast Rank, it might cost even more Mana… Meaning I won't be able to summon them as easily either.
Also, twenty Gray Wolf Spirit Orbs are very expensive. I could use those spirit orbs to make potions instead, and you're asking me twenty of them to increase its rank?!
…
Anyways, as of now, this is it- Oh.
I think I found the limit of how many I summon, by touching an area of the Status near the Growth, it said something…
-----
Maximum Amount of Times it can be summoned per Rank:
Rank H: 5 Summons at the same time.
-----
So by increasing Rank I can summon it more times at the same time? I see, so it had a limit, but the limit of five is still rather high, even if they're trash and might die easily, they can still become useful.
I could even use them as dummies for my disciples to use to practice their Skills or Abilities.
Well, anyways, aside from all of this, what should I do with this…?
Ah, a name?
"I will call you Fenrir." I said.
[The Name [Fenrir] has been assigned to the [Spirit Summon: Beast Gray Wolf]
