章節 73: No, I'm not going to serve you. (V)
"Trapped souls." Madam, Salvey replied.
"How? Why?" I asked, confused, and flabbergasted.
"An Obsidian is a special rock made from the quickly cooling of volcanic activity. It has a hardness level that is not easily broken. Its metaphysical property has a rapid energy storage that sucks in any Dark Magic or Spirits or similar elements into the crystals. That is why you see dark spirits lingering inside the stones because they are not strong enough to break away from the pull."
"I see." This was something that I didn't know about. I once again picked up the Obsidian from Madam Salvey's hand.
Using my mind, I tried out the skill Coder onto the Obsidian.
Coding Skill can not be used. New Skill has been obtained from Magical Spirit Management.
Magical Spirit Management
A unique ability to manage and control the souls inside the Earth's Crystals. The user can Capture, Release, Summon Spirits, and Book. Spirit ranges from humans, beasts, and even magical creatures.
To Capture a spirit, one must be more reliable than the Spirit and have an agreement of servitude to be 'housed' inside the Crystal. Beware of the spirits that harbor dark thoughts or hatred towards the wielder. The Crystal's can become contaminated and become a cursed object. Forcefully putting a Spirit into a crystal will cause a bad interaction between the Crystal and the caster.
To Release a spirit, one must say the magic word caste onto the Crystal. Once released, the Spirit will not come back a second time to the same Crystal. When Releasing angered Spirits, the backlash is to be expected. Beware when they are free.
To Summon Spirits, set up special 'treats' that the spirits like. Treats are like offerings to the spirits. Find out new 'treats' that each Spirit likes.
The Book is a unique storage of summoning techniques for the Spirit. Special procedures and steps need to be used to summon a Spirit. Not all summoning is successful to look into Book, just call out or think "Book." To close out of the Book, call out or think "End."
Without further question, I thought 'Book."
Book of Magical Spirit Summoning
There are many methods to summon a spirit on Earth. Some steps take specific periods of days and time to summon. Individual crystals that respond to the spirits must be used. The period for a spirit to dwell in a crystal depends on each contract.
Would you like to look through more information in the Book? Please specify a specific genre or keywords.
End. I thought. There was a time and place to study this Spirit Summoning. The skill Coding couldn't be used in this world, and it made me wonder if that meant other skills cannot be used. I summoned up my status menu to see what had changed.

Earth Magic: Magical Spirit Management
I couldn't help but be surprised at the new changes in my status. The Ice Magic had increased by three, and now they were specific magic that seemed to differentiate between two worlds. So it seems that Earth Magic Stones couldn't use Coding skill though I had to wonder if it was true with Torren's Magic Stone.
Pulling out a low-level Magic Stone, I willed myself to use the Coding Skill on the Obsidian. Nothing happened.
So that meant the skills from two different words couldn't work. I wondered why this specific magic I was not able to use. The other skills I think I was able to use. I was not quite sure what the rules in this world were with magic.
"I would like to buy two of everything, if possible."
"What?" Phil's voice rose up an octave. "How are you going to carry all of them? Wait, are you saying you can do something with these crystals?"
"I think so, though I don't quite know if I can carry them.…" I pulled out the box where all the Magic Stone was. Opening it up, I dropped the stone into the box. The Obsidian disappeared into the magic box, and a new feature was added. Now I was able to draw out and store Earth's Crystal.
"Are you going to buy that? I only trade with Gold or Silver currency."
"Ah..." I just realized that I didn't have a single money in my name.
"Young mistress," Coco called out to me. She had a bag out in her hand for me to use.
My eyes brightened at the bag of coins. I couldn't happen enough at how dependable Coco was at such a time. She indeed was an A-plus maid.
"How much would it cost?"
"Six gold coins and four silvers."
"Okay." I pulled out the money she asked for though I knew the Draconian coin's purity was the highest. I pulled out three instead and handed it to her to see if it was enough.
"Pretty good stuff. Okay, give me a second." Madam Salvey started picking out every stone in the shop and placing them on the table. Piles of different color crystals, shapes, and sizes were laid out for me to see.
Coco and Phil stare at the stones with interest and pick up a couple of them to examine it.
"There you go." Madam Salvey was finished.
I walked over and started putting the crystals into the box. They disappeared in large numbers into an endless void. With the last one placed in the magical box, I felt pleased at today's profit.
"If you want to buy any more crystals, just give me a call." Madam Salvey gave me a card with her phone number. I also put the card inside the box for future keeping. "I deliver anywhere, plus I got complete more stores around the world. Visit by, my sisters are running the other shops."
"Thank you. I sure will." I smiled. I was happy that I was able to get Earth Crystals. The thought of experimenting with different things excited me.
"I'm glad to see your species back on Earth. You don't know how long this world needs more push in the magical energy. It's been so stagnant that it's hard to conjure up magic. Just being next to you is like a fresh breath of air." Madam Salvey chuckled.
"You make me sound like an air freshener."
"I do, don't I? But it's the truth."
"Well, then let's go." I turned towards everyone. "How far away is our destination?"
"An hour walk from here," Adriel spoke.
"Finally." I let out a sigh. I hoped that nothing would happen any further, but seriously such thoughts need to be thrown out the window.
"Madam, Salvey!" A young boy rushed into the store.
"What is it, Brad?"
"The Demon Lord Abraxas has descended!" He let out with bated breath, almost screaming out the words in fear.
"What!?" Alarmed, Madam Salvey grabbed my hands, almost yanking me. "Follow me quickly!"
For an old woman, she had quite a pull. I was almost being dragged away by her strength and speed.
"Damn it. I was hoping that idiot would take a bit longer to find us." Adriel hissed.
"Abraxas!? He's actually a Demon Lord too?" How many Demon Lords are there even? This was making my head spin. Adriel was one, and I was not expecting to meet another one so soon.
"The worst kind." Madam Salvey stated. "I wouldn't be surprised if he kills you on the spot. It will be a shame for someone like you to die so young. Adriel quickly takes her out of here as fast as you can." She opened up a special door that led to another exit.
"Thanks, Madam. I appreciate your help." I spoke, glad that she was helping me.
"No problem. I'm glad you brought me someone interesting today. Not just one, but three." Madam Salvey smiled and waved goodbye before we ran out.
"I promise I'll come back to buy some more!" I waved back.
"I'll be waiting."
The door closed behind us, and we snuck out through the tightly packed stalls.
