Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start
Chapter 334 The Duke's Invitation-----
"You can't use anything?" Wondered Elenora.
"Alchemy is the power to merge the magic within items into brand new creations. Even with all my experience and mastery I have over it, if I don't have enough magic power to use high level materials properly, I can't use them well. I could try, but the result would be underwhelming and it might even fail, resulting in a wasted material." I sighed. "Grimoire, what Level of Alchemy would I need to use these materials properly in this world? I know that my own experience itself is not enough, right?"
[Precisely, master. You require at least Level 4 [Alchemy] but even then, the higher level the better, there might be still chances of failure at Level 4, but if you reinforce your alchemy through other Skills in the Skill Tree such as [Brewing] and [Synthetize] you can increase the success chance of creating items. Additionally, Level 4 of the Alchemy Book is also needed to unlock special recipes that use Wyvern materials.]
"Hm, I see… I guess I'll have to level up faster to get those Skills and also Level up those Skills to a required level. I would want to do this before leaving the village, if possible. There'll be a long grind for my goal." I sighed.
"Cheer up, we'll manage to do it quickly. Now that you have many talents and powers, it is easier to do alchemy, we could even try to mass produce items!" Eleanora said. "For more EXP."
"Yes, thanks to the book, mass producing becomes possible, we need to gather more Bitter Herb and Oil Extracts from Wild Flowers at least…"
I summoned the four Rabbits and sent them off into the forest to look for materials. I gave each one a small bag where Huginn would help them store the materials in there using their dexterous legs.
"With that done, I guess we should go down to have breakfast." I said. "There's also some meat we got; we should enjoy that at a later occasion though."
After taking a bath I met with my family once more, everybody seemed to be having a peaceful morning, it was a rather intense day yesterday. My mother looked like she couldn't take any more surprises for the day.
My father seemed rather cheery of course.
"Yesterday's battle was amazing, all thanks to our son, Mary!" He said. "You should had seen him commanding us, his plan was amazingly detailed and ended in total victory against the wyvern, some said that beast was the same in the mountain terrorizing the people walking around the Vast Grasslands! This probably means we beat something almost at B Rank in level of strength!"
"I-I know, you told me that yesterday as well, honey." My mother sighed. "Still, that was so horrendously dangerous… I know its over but I can't help but worry it might happen again. Also, is there a reason why it came? Wasn't it territorial?"
"Yeah, I have the same question." Said my father. "Nobody has figured out why it came, but some said it was looking for something."
"Maybe someone stole the wyvern's egg! Agh, damn it, I should had been awake when it came. I slept through the whole thing." My grandmother said, her sleep was incredibly heavy so it was rather hard to wake her up.
"The egg?" Asked my mother.
"Don't you remember that anecdote we once heard from your father, Mary?" Asked my grandmother, probably talking about her deceased husband, my grandfather. "From the village where he came from, a Wyvern had attacked because a dumbass stole their egg. Those winged lizards have amazing smelling sense, it tracked its egg all the way to the village and set ablaze the house of the man that stole the egg, quickly taking the egg away after the man got turned into a charred corpse!"
"O-Oh…" My mother said.
"So Wyverns are very vengeful, huh?" I wondered. "Maybe the Wyvern we defeated also had an egg here, but who stole it? An Adventurer? We need to investigate this case further…"
"Yeah, let's go talk with the Duke, he should be awake by now, the chief came some time ago to tell us to go there whenever we had time." My father said.
After having breakfast, we quickly moved outside with my father, leaving mother and grandmother at home. We reached the noble's residence where the duke and the chief were staying, and after having to convince the guards we were invited here, we were able to enter and quickly found the duke and the chief, alongside their families, inside the hall of the house's first floor, alongside a few hunters that were in yesterday's banket. After formal introductions, we quickly began a conversation about everything that transpired last night.
We explained everything from the plans we had to the entire strategy done right, the wyvern's death, and everything that happened afterwards. Killing a D-Rank Monster was already an incredible feat in this world due to the level of difficulty that monsters of higher ranks had, each one growing usually several times stronger than the previous Rank, but one that was strengthened through Miasma, as it was already proven by experts that analyzed the corpse this morning, was an incredible feat that deserved more than just congratulations, apparently.
"It is incredible how you were able to defeat such a mighty beast! You have my regards, hunter Joan and his son… I am also very grateful to you, young Blake. Not only were you able to come out with a plan to defeat such a mighty beast, but also saved my wife's life… I am indebted to you." He said.
"I-Indebted to me?!" I asked in shock.
I had never thought things would develop into this.
"Yes… I have thought more about everything, I had already decided to give you all Commoner Status, but through this experience, I realized how dangerous this world truly is, and how precious are people like you, who fight these beasts and protect us, especially my wife and my two daughters." Said the Duke, as his twin daughters were eating a sandwich, completely ignoring his words. These girls were only a year younger than me.
"Therefore… I want to do something for you and your father- and of course, the other children that also helped, I am impressed by your incredible talent." Said the Duke. "Tell me anything and I shall consider it! Come on, go on and ask!"
