Chapter 9: Cemetery Army

At midnight

In the coastal Iskar city

In the largest palace in the city

All the servants and members of the family gathered at the gate of the Palace to welcome the return of the head of the family.

(That's surprising even my mom is here) Fray thought, walking towards the Palace surrounded by many familiar faces.

One of the oldest traditions of the Prada family is to welcome the head of the family at the entrance of the palace whenever he returns from carrying out a dangerous mission.

But this was a precedent for Fray who was hated by most of the family members, although he had received a welcome before. It was only from the servants this is the first time the whole family is organized to welcome his return.

(Looks like the loyalty contract scared them a bit) Fray thought, noticing the uncomfortable looks on their faces. All members of the Prada family have contract spirits, even wives, courtesans, and servants. Anyone living in the Prada family's palace must be a spirit warrior in at least the First Kingdom, or they will be expelled from the family.

But even though there were a lot of people not even one of them talks to Fray, they just stood there as Fray entered the mansion, anyone can notice that they were not happy with Fray's return but Fray didn't care, he already expected this.

From the novel, Fray learned that even if he died, no one would care about him, except...

"You did well this time, sir," Montaser said, standing behind Fray while he was having dinner

"Thank you, Montaser, If it wasn't for your help I wouldn't have done it," Fray replied

(Is he trying to console me? what an idiot) Fray thought in annoyance, though a faint smile formed on his face, no one noticed that smile, not even Fray himself.

But actually, Montaser's statement wasn't untrue, despite not being able to clean the dungeon, they got a lot of loot from the warehouse of the serpent organization, which will be a great help to the city that Fray rules and which suffers from many difficulties at the current time.

"Montaser, send letters to all members of the council, tell them that it will be a meeting tomorrow at midday, and attendance is mandatory," after finishing dinner Fray said, standing from his site.

After leaving this order, Fray left the dining room and headed towards a place no one had visited in years

chemistry room

Fray's grandfather was a skilled alchemist and he was doing his research in this room. It contains all the necessary tools and machines for alchemy and many scientific books in various fields and even Fray's grandfather's scientific notes are here, but because there are no books related to martial arts or magic this room was abandoned after Fray's grandfather died, or rather after he was murdered.

Fray obtained advanced scientific knowledge thanks to Yassine's memories, but there are many differences between Yassine's world and Fray's world. For example, if Fray wants to remake a car, he has the minerals and knowledge to make it, but there is no oil in this world

Therefore, Fray must first understand the science of his world and then combine them with the sciences of Yassine's world to find a suitable energy source to make a car in this world. This logic applies to all the inventions that Fray intends to achieve...

With that thought in his head, Fray closed himself in the room and began reading the books his grandfather had left

The next morning.

Fray left the room and headed towards the back garden, there exists a huge area for training equipped with different types of heavy-weight exercise machines that Fray uses for training as well as big spaces for running and training martial arts. Fray is a physical fighter who depends on muscular strength so he needs to train his muscles daily. Thus, he started his exercise plan which consists of heavy lifting and martial arts training, so after more than two hours of intense training. Fray finally stops and began his next exercise

"Cemetery Army," Fray mumbled in a low voice as he sat on the ground. the moment these words left fray's mouth a large group of black-colored insects appeared out of the void and started circling Fray's body slowly.

The number of these insects was so great that they completely covered Fray's body, then suddenly a white light started emitting from the insects and streaming toward Fray. These insects are called cemetery bees, and the shape of these insects is similar to bees, but they are about twice as large as ordinary bees, and it is the second contracted Fray's spirit, The cemetery Army, and it is a summoning type spirit that can absorb the energy of dead creatures and transmit it to the contracted human. It is a rank three spirit but it can evolve and can reach rank seven or eight if it absorbs enough energy, it only gives Fray half of the energy it absorbed and keeps the other half for itself to use for its evolution, and it has already gone through its first evolution it was a first rank spirit and became in the third rank.

After its development, the number of bees has become less and their size become larger and they can absorb twice the amount of energy compared to before, even their handling and control of energy have become better, which benefits Fray a lot.

Normally summoning-type spirits need a large amount of energy to stay summoned but this spirit depends on the energy it has absorbed to maintain itself so it is a very suitable spirit for Fray who cannot use energy. As Fray acquired these two spirits at a young age, and after obtaining these two spirits, Fray decided to follow a path that only a few would follow, which is the path of body development.

The body developer combines energy with his bones, muscles, and internal organs to make his body stronger, but he cannot maintain the energy in his body for long. Any energy that enters his body merges with him quickly

Because of this, a body developer cannot use energy to create spells as a magician does, or martial arts skills like a warrior does, he can't even use a spiritual sense.

But Despite this major flaw in the body developer's job, Fray decided to use it because the Spirit Gate notified him that his first Contracting spirit *Narod* was using this class and Fray knew that the skills he would obtain from Narod would be related to it after that he choose the cemetery army. After all, it doesn't need any energy from him.

After half an hour

(It seems the energy is running out) Fray thought after noticing that the cemetery army was gradually disappearing and the energy it was producing becomes weaker gradually.

It's been a while since the last time Fray went hunting, and when raiding the serpent's lair, Fray had to rescue the children quickly so he didn't have time to absorb the energy of the corpses so the energy from the spirit ran out now.

After training, Fray took a shower and ate breakfast alone as usual. And start preparing for the meeting....after this meeting, everything will change
