"Child… Wake up…"
"Huh!"
Leo woke up hearing some whispers and found himself inside a dark room. Only thing present here was a door and bed. He tried to call Jen but Jen gave no response. Even minimap and inventory refused to work here.
"Come outside…"
He heard the whisper again. Finding nothing else here, he shrugged and opened the door and walked out.
A narrow corridor welcomed him. Paintings hung on both sides of the walls at a similar distance. The blurred faces in the painting gave him chills.
'Why am I getting horror movie vibes here?'
He followed the only way. The path in front was split into left and right. Pitch black darkness shrouded the left path while the other shone brilliantly with a white glow.
"Go left."
He alternated his gaze between left and right, trying to discern the purpose of this.
"Black as my heart, huh..."
He whispered and walked to the left. After he walked in the dark corridor for a while. A gust of wind hit his face and a door appeared out of nowhere. The space around the door looked like it was warping.
He opened the door and went inside. A room appeared in sight with nothing but a large round table surrounded by six chairs. Five figures sat there leaving one chair empty.
He went forward and sat leisurely. He noticed numbers carved on the table in front of every figure, he also had a number which was six.
He observed five figures staring intently in his direction, their blurred faces looked really creepy to him.
He could still discern their gender from their silhouette. Two were female and the rest three male.
"Welcome to the Soul room of … …. ..." All five of them said together.
He only heard half of their words, the rest sounded like glitch in his mind.
"Who… are you guys?"
"We are … …. …."
"I can't hear you clearly."
The only two women whispered among each other.
.
"I guess it's not time," said the woman with number three. Her voice was very soft and pleasing.
"For what?" he asked.
His head felt dizzy just from staring at their faces. He felt a sense of powerless when he stared at their face.
"Just keep getting stronger, you will know it... one day. It is your destiny as one of the ———" answered the men seated in front of number one in a tone filled with majesty.
Their voice was silenced by something, he could guess the culprit.
"Do you guys know about the silver haired woman who calls herself Entity?"
"You must be talking about … She sure is one hell of a bitch, taking orders from ..." replied the man with number five in a shrill voice.
"Hahaha."
Every one of them burst into laughter leaving Leo wondering about this whole talk.
"Well looks like this is it for our first meeting," replied the woman in an apathetic voice, seated in front of number two.
"You guys are..."
Before he could reply everything vanished in a mist. He opened his eyes, still feeling a little dizzy.
'What were they about to say? Jen, you know something right?'
(.....)
'If any one of them ever tried something on me or my family… you know the rest.'
"Leo!"
Yue jumped at him, tears threatening to burst from her eyes. Seeing him collapse with a pained expression, she was left in a state of despair.
"Don't worry," he murmured, soothingly, "I'm fine."
After comforting the sad Vampire princess with a kiss and some headpats, he walked out of the room with two tiny holes in his neck.
Yue followed behind, her rosy cheeks glowing with vitality.
They crossed the large door and saw the destruction. One of the crystal pillars he saw before was… shattered into pieces. Hydra silver head wasn't there on its body. Blood was everywhere on the ground with bits and pieces of meat.
A look of disbelief spread on his face. Even after witnessing it in the Orcus room, he still couldn't help but doubt it.
Yue nodded with a smug face."Nn."
Ignoring Yue who puffed her chest proudly for some reason, he stored the hydra body in his inventory. He went back and ate the meat of silver head. He ate nearly six times of his udual diet.

['Aurora Breath' skill acquired]
[Aurora Breath] (Active skill)
Allows the user to shoot breath that causes corrosive and destructive damage, proportional to mana.
His mouth opened wide in surprise. He picked up Yue and used supersonic step to return to the place where he picked up the Hydra corpse.
"Leo?!"
Stepping outside the door, he aimed his hand forward and made a mental image of the same aurora breath Hydra used.
A silver flash of light shot forward and hit the crystal pillar and slowly disintegrated it.
"...Amazing, as expected of Leo."
"That's too much praise for me… Let's start my magic training."

"Nn."
He then earnestly started his magic training with Yue. She started from very basic and taught him how to properly use mana for beginner spells. After getting lectured by a girl who appeared to be thirteen he wanted to experiment the new crafting skill.
He came to the workshop of Orcus and 'borrowed' some tools. He grasped the hammer with an odd feeling. He never used any kind of hammer except the one time he used to smash some heads… the hammer felt familiar to him.
His hands moved skillfully and started beating the hammer on an already melted azanthium ore.
He could do it instantly with Creation Magic, but his hands were itching to do it.
Clang! Clang!
Hammer waved around in the air and struck the ore slowly turning it into a round ball of metal. He picked it up and poured mana in it while focusing his mind on a skill he was dying to get.
A sudden sharp pain in his head stopped him.
'It really is hard to create a skill out of nowhere.'
He concentrated hard this time, ignoring the headache. After a few moments, the ball glowed with a faint red then dimmed down.
[Mana Crafting successful]
He used creation magic to shape it into a golden ring with a crimson wavy pattern carved on its shank and a blood red ruby fitted on its head.
"Fuuh"
He fell back on the carpet in exhaustion and gazed at the beautiful ring in his hands.
'Analyze'
[??]
Rank - SS
A ring made to nullify any mental status including possession type skills.
Enchantment - [Mental Immunity]
He stored it in inventory and closed his eyes. After seeing Yue caught off guard twice with mental attacks, he was really hoping to create something like this. Thinking about it he slowly fell deeper in slumber.
He opened his eyes and felt something soft under his head. His gaze met with Yue softly brushing his hair and realized he was resting on her lap. He wanted to get up from her lap but threw away the thought after seeing affectionate look in Yue's eyes.
He grabbed her left hand and pushed the golden ring on her fragile fingers.
"Hwah!?"
The sudden attack took Yue by surprise, after processing it for a few seconds, a beautiful smile blossomed on her face.
"It's a yes…"
He couldn't bear to tell it was an artifact instead of a proposal ring. He stood and started to create a few extra rings for Eri and maybe her friends.
[Mana Crafting successful]
He created a simple silver ring with a black diamond on it. Eri always liked simple things.
His mind was totally exhausted, this skill really sucked up all his mental strength. He turned back to see Yue smiling bewitchingly.
"Not here, you lusty princess!"
Despite that he was attacked and drowned in her affectionate kisses.
***
One week later, Leo leaning against a tree
'Yue is too cruel. How can she throw tens of fireballs at her lover, just because I didn't let her drink blood?'
His clothes were all tattered from training. He looked at Yue smiling brightly.

He deadpanned seeing the first option.
'Jen, do you really want me to become a pervert?'
(.....)
For a moment he thought about buying the Aphrodisiac potion and fed it to Yue. But he slapped his cheek to shake away the thought.
'What the hell is happening to me? Is she really influencing me that much?'
'I really need to gather some SP for HP potion. What is that world ticket anyway? I can go to any random world like how I came to this world?'
(Yes…)
'Chains of Heaven...'
That price shook away any thoughts of buying it. He opened his eyes to see Yue sleeping on his lap.
'I will go up some floors and collect SP for HP potions. I can save some Ambrosia by using it.'
