In front of me stood Huginn, a large crow capable of doing something I never thought would become handy until now, by looking at his stats, I also realized he wasn't made for fighting.

His stats were not bad, it was expected for a Familiar at G Rank to have such low stats. But what surprised me was that it had 150 Agility. That was… something way too huge. I suppose the rest of his stats being so low are to compensate for this. Huginn is probably faster than me as he can fly without the requirement of Mana and might out speed me with the use of his second Skill over a race. Of course, let's look at each Skill separately.

-----

[Voice Mimic]

A Skill that allows the perfect copy of the summoner's voice. The voice can be transmitted anywhere the Crow goes, and the summoner is able to freely decide to speak or not.

-----

[Shadow Flight]

The Familiar shrouds themselves in shadows, enhancing their flight speed by +50% at day and +200% at night. Additionally, it grants the power to transmit the Familiar's vision with the summoner.

Amazing. Huginn was never made to fight, despite his frightening sharp beak and claws… He's actually the perfect scout!

Not only I can use him to communicate from long distances but I can even see through his own eyes at night, and he receives a boost to his speed by merely activating a Skill that has no MP cost at all. Familiars are really amazing; I can simply summon them and not worry about MP consumption at all unlike with Eleanora.

Of course, Eleanora is way stronger, but still, Familiars have their use and are also worth the pain of getting enough Spirit Orbs to summon them. I was using Eleanora before as a scout, but Huginn might beat her in that role, and be also better for the job as Eleanora is better off standing by my side as my main Spirit and source of strength than going away from me.

I remember that some Dark Crows had the power to fire spheres of darkness. They were very weak though so they didn't do any damage. Huginn cannot do such a thing sadly, it seems that Summons are different from their origin most of the time. It is as if the Type of Summon decides what they actually do. The Walking Mushroom Spirit Orbs I used to make Spore were not able to create any spore that could paralyze or anything, Summons might be able to develop completely unique powers compared to their original monsters.

And if I am understanding things better… Summons might be classified depending in their type. Beast Type Summons are in charge of fighting and charging at the enemy upfront, meanwhile, Plant Type might be capable of distracting the enemy or inflicting status effects, and Birds might be for scouting, reconnaissance, and anything related to it.

Each Familiar Type has a role, and as an Invoker, it is my duty to put each role together to make a team capable of working in tandem with each of their abilities. Meanwhile, the Spirits from my Spirit Orb could be considered the bosses that maintain everything together, alongside myself, of course.

"A-Are you ready to go?"

Eleanora quickly made me snap out of my thoughts, as I quickly realized I had been thinking too much once more.

"You're right, let's go. Huginn, go ahead of us and scout the woods, look for any monster or animal you can find."

"CRAA!"

Huginn gave out a loud crow-like cry and flew into the skies. His wings shrouded themselves in shadows, as even before the light of the sun, his speed was enhanced by +50%, amazingly flying across the skies with ease. Well, that's the power of 150 Agility.

"Let's go."

Eleanora and I dashed into the forest, looking around, it seemed as if everything was calmer than ever. The forest might be even safe for toddlers to walk around now by how empty it all felt. However, there should be living beings somewhere. I really am craving to hunt anything. I do remember saying I didn't wanted to affect the ecosystem, but I've already lost my patience so I will take back those words I said before, for the moment.

"This place is really empty, we had been running around for an hour now… Are we already in the third layer?" Wondered Eleanora.

"Yeah, I am seeing things through Huginn. It seems there is really barely any life." I sighed.

"CRAA!"

Suddenly, I heard Huginn's cry and through his eyes I saw what seemed to be a group of five Horned Rabbits running away from a pair of hungry gray wolves. Finally, something! And it is Horned Rabbits, something I never managed to catch before because they disappeared when I was still incapable of going out to hunt.

"Huginn saw something to the northeast, follow me!"

"Alright!"

With Eleanora behind me, we ran over the trees and quickly reached a small meadow within the forest, the horned rabbits were running as fast as possible from the pair of hungry Gray Wolves, but sadly that was going to be my meal.

"Eleanora, catch the rabbits, I'll deal with the wolves!"

"Alright!"

Eleanora swiftly ran towards the rabbits through the treetops, using her Blood Threads to create a net in mere seconds and then putting it right in front of the rabbits running desperately. Too desperate to see through what had happened just now, they ended being captured quite easily by the net. Their horns were tough but they were unable to break through the net easily. These were low-rank monsters, so there wasn't going to be any exciting fight.

Meanwhile, I reached the wolves, but quickly noticed something. One of them was overly fat?
