"It`s happened again...

" Mumbled Evan rising to his feet. Like the last time, all his wounds had miraculously healed and his eyes had changed.

Outwardly, they had become very deep and mesmerizing, but that wasn't the most important thing. Most of the change was with Evan's sight. He looked around and the world seemed very unfamiliar to him. He could see an ant crawling through the grass a few meters away. Before, there was no way he would have been able to spot something like that from that distance.

"That strange feeling again...that's real bliss.

" Evan was surprised, but he realized what had just happened.

After taking some time to think about it, Evan decided to check something. He concentrated and entered

"Nirvana

".

.

Crack.

Just when Evan thought about it, a huge crack appeared in the white-white space. This time the Demogorgon didn't show itself, this crack was a passageway.

"Oh, so it's a door made especially for me.

" Said Evan with a slight smile on his face.

He headed towards the crack, walked through it, and found himself in the very space where the black lion was.

Evan looked around and muttered,

"I see, it's here too...

" Evan muttered, looking at the huge rat.

It was to the right of the lion, and there was a massive magical circle around it as well. It was no different from an ordinary rat, except for one important detail- it had golden eyes. They were as deep as an abyss in which the greed of the world was concentrated.

Evan thought and returned to the real world.

Just a minute ago, he had been dying, but now he was perfectly fine. He couldn't even put into words how good he felt. It was like an absolute superiority over all living things.

Stretching himself, Evan made his way to Reinier, he was sure his opponent was dead. There was no way Reinier could have survived being pierced by Prince Seere's spear. But, Evan wanted to check something.

"That power is truly amazing, but... that attack alone cost me twenty years of my life. I have to be more careful, I've already wasted thirty-five years of my life. Unfortunately, in this situation, I had no other choice.

" Said Evan looking around the fallen trees. Everything looked as if there had been a real tsunami here.

Evan reached Reinier's body. There was a wide through the hole in the man's chest, and his entire body was riddled with wounds. He had died in the first moments of the attack.

The young man leaned over his body and he frowned,

"Shit!

"

He wasn't going to watch his opponent's corpse, he was coming for his spatial ring. It was surely more capacious than Evan's, but the young man's hopes were not destined to come true. Because of the unrealistic power of the attack, the ring had been destroyed, along with all of its contents.

"Well, I shouldn't feel sad, as long as I'm alive. We need to get out of these woods soon, I can't survive another encounter like this.

"

Evan decided to go back to the fallen tree and inspect the warehouse. He hoped that at least there he could find something of value. Because of the monster and the battle with Reinier, the shelter was almost completely destroyed, but something must have survived.

Caw. Caw. Caw.

Suddenly he heard the cawing of a raven. The young man turned around and smiled. Evan knew that monsters and humans were hostile to each other, but this bird had saved his life a second time.

Evan looked at the raven's bleeding wound and picked up a yellow pill from the floor and threw it right into its beak, and the raven caught it on the fly.

Their gazes met, and the next moment, a golden gleam flashed in Evan's eyes, and the giant rat's eyes glowed brightly. The words rang through Evan`s and the raven's mind:

A sufficient level of trust was reached.

The contract was concluded. Soul Level- 1.

The spell

"One-Eyed Raven`s Beam

" was received

Both Evan and the raven were in disarray. The young man quickly gathered his thoughts, looked at the raven, and grinned.

"Since we're tied now, do you mind if I give you a name?

"

The raven only nodded in response.

"Okay, then... how about Reykar?

"

Caw! Caw! Caw!

"Great, I see you like it, but there's one problem... I can't show up in town with a monster on my shoulder, what to do...

" Evan was puzzled, he didn't know what to do in this situation. Other people shouldn't have seen that he could communicate with the monster.

Whoosh.

Suddenly the golden eyes of the giant rat glowed again and to Evan's surprise, Reykar disappeared. He couldn't find him anywhere until suddenly he heard him somewhere in the depths of his mind.

"Is it...?

" Mumbled Evan and immediately found himself at Nirvana. He couldn't believe that his hunch had turned out to be real.

But, it truly was reality. Reykar was floating in the midst of his

"Nirvana

". It just didn't fit in Evan's mind. He was shocked that a living creature could be in this place. Nevertheless, it was just great news. Now his mate could always be with him and he wouldn't have to hide him.

"Hey, Reykar, can you make it out of here back to the outside world?

"

The raven nodded, and the next moment he was already sitting on Evan's shoulder. Seconds later, he was back in the young man's

"Nirvana

".

"Great, couldn't be better. By the way, what kind of spell was this talking about at the time of the contract?

" Evan wasn't quite sure what he'd gotten, but the raven seemed to know everything.

Caw. Caw. Caw.

He began to caw, getting Evan's attention. A few seconds later, a large blue crack appeared next to Reykar and the raven flew right into it.

"...

"

"I was under the impression that this raven had settled in even better than me...

"

Evan shook his head and headed after the raven. The young man knew where this crack led, to the Library, the place where all the spells he had learned were located.

Whoosh.

"So I`ve actually got a real spell, amazing.

"

Mumbled Evan looking at the purple magic circle, it was floating in the air quite close to his three blue magic circles.

"Does this mean I can learn an evolved monster skill? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

"
