What Blake did now might have been something completely impossible before. He created an artificial compatible Spirit Orb for his Grimoire to absorb and turn into a new Familiar.

Using the power of ten S Rank Spirit Orbs fused together into a single and big one, he placed all the souls of these brave knights inside, synthetizing them into the item. And then once the grimoire swallowed it all, their power dissolved and then was remade as new Familiars.

Without his current powers and his investigation on the modification and creation of Spirit Orbs he did with the elves affected by the demonic parasite of Mammon, he would have never reached this far.

He had done this on a whim, without fully knowing if it would work as perfectly as it actually did, he was slightly shocked it worked so well, and in the first try too.

Ding!

[You have successfully registered the New Familiar Summon: [Elven Spirit Knight of Yggdrasil (A+++ Rank)]!]

[You can now create Cards of these Familiars, each one will possess the soul of a different knight, with great intelligence and their unique abilities additionally from their generic skills.]

They were, however, not S Rank, unfortunately, limited to the highest Grade of A Rank, which was already incredibly decent and fine for now.

Blake quickly summoned a single card, which then he duplicated with his Familiar Multiplication Skill, at half the Spirit Orb and Mana price.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Of course, for this to be done, the first Knight had to be summoned, and he appeared, a radiant, tall knight, two meters tall, wearing shiny gold and green colored armor.

They had long blonde hair, pointy ears which their helmet had taken into consideration, shaping an area for them to be positioned, finely decorated, and also carrying a huge golden and green colored blade.

Their emerald eyes shone brightly beneath the helmet, as the brave knight took off their helmet, to reveal a beautiful and handsome elven man.

"I thank you, my liege, for giving me a second chance," and he bowed before Blake.

First of all, he was like Bestellen, Skadi, and the Generals and Fairies, capable of speech with ease!

"So he can talk!" Saphira said.

"Amazing~" Eleanora appeared behind Blake, bringing with her the corpses of several lizardmen and monsters, alongside the draconic general she slayed. "I brought you more soldiers."

"Thank you," said Blake, waving his hand. The elf watched as his new liege used accursed dark powers similar to the demons themselves, rising the scaled monsters into new soldiers.

His Status was surprising, and as more of the Knights appeared, Blake discovered every single one had a different name and occupation within the army. Some came without swords but spears, others carrying huge shields, some with large longbows or ballista, and so on.

Lifang's Status, however, was the most surprising, his stats were very high compared to other of Blake's Familiars, and once he received all his buffs, Lifeng would become truly unparalleled!

But above all, he was very unique, as he was capable of summoning Elemental Spirits that once belonged to him somehow, making him much stronger as a result too.

"Why yes, we know quite a bit about that despicable monster," Lifang answered Blake's question about Fafnir. "For once, we know that he wasn't exactly born as a Divine Dragon originally. And that he's also... Half human."

"Half... human?!" Blake asked in surprise. "I could swear that... Bestellen, come."

He summoned Bestellen by his side, the silver and white colored divine dragon's presence made Lifang gasp in awe and amusement.

"I-Increidble, is this another divine dragon below your jurisdiction, my liege?!" he asked. "Did you see this, my friends?! We made the right choice!"

The other elven knights roared in unison, rising their weapons.

As that happened, Blake asked Bestellen more about Fafnir.

"I honestly have no idea what he is," Bestellen said. "There was no dragon named Fafnir when I was alive for all that time. And his presence, albeit divine in nature... it feels twisted and strange."

"Huh..." Blake rubbed his chin. "Well, let's clean this city and then we continue, the day has yet to end after all. We'll rest until we reach Fort Greenleaf closer to the Evergrace City."
