Chapter 169 - Soul Recall
Adrian is looking at the Orb of True Fire in his hands with a sad expression because he could not use it for himself. He did not want to sacrifice this item for his weapon upgrade because he could use this item on Kanlaon. This items was a weapon and material hybrid.
Items that are both classified as a weapon and material are rare and hard to find. It is rare because you could use it as is or find a blacksmith to craft a better weapon. The only downside is that once used for crafting then it will lose its classification as a material. This is what makes items like these unique and hard to find.
"Summon: Kanlaon" Adrian stated and a magic circle appeared.
Kanlaon's magic circle had a dragon insignia that is like his silhouette with runes that radiated red and blue light. Adrian was always amazed by the design of the magic circles in this game. Aernas even told him that once he becomes an Advance rank Scribe then he could edit magic circles which greatly excited him.
"You called for me Master?" Kanlaon stated.
"Here. You deserve this. You are the one who found it after all." Adrian stated and was about to hand out the Orb of True Fire but he suddenly got a system notification.
[Do you want to use the Orb of True Fire for your soulbound Kanlaon? Yes or No]
Adrian's hands froze midway because he thought that this was a crafting material not a consumable material. If that was the case then this item was extremely rare. Too bad Adrian does not have fire related abilities but increasing Kanlaon's strength is also considered as increasing his strength so he was not mad about it.
Adrian happily used the Orb of True Fire on Kanlaon. Kanlaon's body was suddenly engulfed in flames but it did not hurt him rather he looked like he enjoyed the feeling. The orb on Adrian's hand suddenly had the dragon insignia on it and then it turned into particles to combine with Kanlaon.
The fire engulfing Kanlaon died down and from Adrian's view he looked the same. The only thing different now was that a floating red orb was revolving near Kanlaon. In a simple analogy, Kanlaon was the planet and the red orb was the moon. The red orb floated freely around Kanlaon and it looked awesome in Adrian's eyes at least.
"Since I am already feeding you expensive stuff then I might as well give you another one." Adrian said as he took the Calcite Rock Dragon Core from his inventory.
"Here eat this. Say Ahhh." Adrian instructed and Kanlaon happily opened its mouth like the former was feeding a baby.
Adrian observed if there were any changes on Kanlaon's body but there was no noticeable change. He looked at the evolution interface and there was no indication that Kanlaon unlocked a new evolution route.
"So three elements are not enough for Kanlaon to evolve. The elements that I am missing now are wind, light and darkness. I can find wind dragons when I gain higher levels but light and darkness dragons are either non-existent or one in a million. I will just tackle this problem when I have the time." Adrian murmured to himself as he sealed Kanlaon once more as the latter is not fully recovered yet.
"Now let us look at the skills that I got from the Gem of Earth. Oh! The runestone became epic tier nice." Adrian thought as he looked at the skills.
Skill: Protection of Geb
Tier: Rare
Type: Shield
Effect:
Passive: As long as the player is in contact with the earth, the player will generate a shield equal to 10% of your maximum health that can block all types of damage. If the shield is broken, it will take one hour to generate another one.
Active: Summon a dome of earth to cover you and protect you from any type of damage for the duration.
Duration: 2 Seconds
Cooldown: 1 day
Cast Time: 1 second
It seems this was the skill that the rock dragon used to protect itself from Adrian's attacks. No wonder it dropped this runestone. Although the rock dragon's duration was five seconds long, beggars can't be choosers. Adrian was satisfied with this skill and his defenses increased once more. A summoner that is difficult to kill is a headache.
He then looked at the skill he got when he reached level 100.
Skill: Soul Recall
Tier: Legacy
Type: Summoning skill
Effect: Open a portal from a random death realm and summon an entity to fight for you for the duration of the skill. The summoned being will have its level adjusted to the summoner's level. Once the duration ends, the summoned entity will return to its death realm and all experience points gained by the summoned entity will be transferred to the summoner.
Duration: 1 hour
Mana Cost: 5000 mana points
Cooldown: 2 hours
Cast Time: 10 seconds
Adrian was very excited with this skill as he can finally have temporary summons. He wanted to try it out on the Paradox Planes but Ascalor warned him not to test space warping skills in the Paradox Planes. If something went wrong, Adrian could potentially rip a portal to another world. Ascalor told him that the space around the Paradox Planes is volatile which is why spatial rifts are placed in one location instead of being scattered.
"I will just test it out when I raid the other places for the crown fragment. Hopefully, I can find it easily. Maybe I should head out when I can summon Sirius but raids of high levels are much more difficult compared to that of raids for low levels." Adrian muttered.
Adrian then contacted all of the people on his friend list except for Cersei. He contacted his three childhood friends, the father and daughter elemental and Creepysoo. Adrian only sent them two sentences but they all accepted it in just a matter of seconds.
"Can you help me with a raid for a dungeon above level 100? Details will follow later."
All of them replied enthusiastically in just a matter of seconds. They too were looking for a raid since they were all nearing level 99. Adrian logged out first as he was being called to eat. He also thought to bring his big sister if her level was high enough. Adrian would give her a bus ride.

During mealtime…
"So sis, what level are you now?" Adrian asked to her sister that looked dazed while eating.
Mina was eating like a robot and looked like she did not hear Adrian's question.
"Mina! Your brother asked you a question." Adrian's mom said which brought Mina back to earth.
"What was your question? Sorry, I did not hear it." Mina asked.
"I asked what level are you right now." Adrian
"Oh! I am level 92 right now. Why are you asking?" Mina replied.
Adrian almost choked and had to drink a glass of water so that he could swallow. Adrian's head suddenly started finding a logical answer to how that happened as she only started the game recently. Several mathematical equations and formulas appeared on Adrian's head until he found the answer.
"The almighty fifteen hour daily limit!" Adrian thought.
Adrian then had a glint in his eye and then was about to speak to his mother.
"Mom…" Adrian said.
"No." Adrian's mom replied.
"But I barely said anything yet." Adrian retorted.
"You were going to ask me something about giving you money or something related to that game." Adrian's mom replied.
"She is a Psychic!" Adrian thought while shocked by his overactive imagination.
"Alright then, if the treasurer does not approve then you must go to the source!" Adrian thought.
"Dad…" Adrian said.
"Ask your mother for permission." Adrian's dad replied.
Adrian acted like he was shot in the heart due to the sudden block his dad made. His parents looked at him funny because their son was clearly overreacting.
"So you take acting classes now huh. Eat your food." Adrian's mom replied.
Adrian sat there deflated and looking lost when he saw someone more lost than him and it was his sister.
"What is up with her?" Adrian whispered to his mother.
"Judging by her actions and her absent mindedness then I can only make one guess." Adrian's mom replied with a slight smile.
"Okay… you know I do not like to be kept hanging so spill it my beautiful mother." Adrian replied.
"I still will not give you money for your game. Anyways, it is crystal clear that your sister is in love." Adrian's mom replied with her slight smile now forming into a big smile while looking at Adrian's dad.
"Uhuh…so any idea on who is the unlucky guy?" Adrian asked and then a back of a spoon suddenly hit his hand.
"Ouch! That hurt." Adrian replied.
"Who do you mean by unlucky huh punk?" Mina asked Adrian with a smile that did not look like a smile.
"Yes. Tell me Mina, who is this guy?" Adrian's mom teased.
"I am done eating. Thank you for the food." Mina said as her face flushed red and she hurriedly went to her room.
"You were acting like her when we just met." Adrian's dad interjected.
"Stop it. Not in front of the kids." Adrian's mom bashfully replied.
"Okay. I am done eating too. Also get a room." Adrian said as he hovered himself towards his room.
