Chapter 8: My Real Family or Just A Dream??
In a World that looks and feels completely different from Earth.
Four figures can be seen in what it is called a Sea of Flowers.
The first figure looked like a father, second one like a mother, third a small girl and the fourth one who seems to be the only one whose face can be seen.
He looked a little older than the small girl, his Black hair had strips of white which made it look like a universe, his left eyes was dark red that looked more dangerous than an ancient beast, while his right eye was light which gave a majestic look and as if it could perceive anything.
The mother and the little girl had hair Darker than a night sky. They were sitting together on the ground having a fun time. Occasionally the girl turned back and smiled towards her brother.
The father had a Majestic Aura with his long white hair flowing in the wind and occasionally touching his short beard.
"I am sorry my son but I'll have to seal your memories temporarily, after you are strong enough the seal wilk eventually break. " The father said with a hint of sadness in his face.
He lifts his hand and touches his son's forehead. Immediately the son falls unconscious. The father carries his son and flies away.
"You can hate me for what I am going to do, but its the only way, I am sorry" the father mutters as he flied faster and faster.
...
"Ugh, my head! what was that dream about? " Blake said with one of his hand on his head. He tried to move but his body felt like it was bitten by millions of ants.
"It seems like the last skill really did a toll on my body" Blake said as he sat on the bed.
'That figure said I will get my memories only when I am strong enough' Blake thought.
Blake has been missing memories of his childhood. He can only recall memories from when he was in a forest at the age of 7, below that he can't recall anything.
Suddenly the door opened and Elise entered the carriage.
"Umm... Thank you for saving me..." Elise said in a shy voice.
"Its fine don't mention it. How are your injuries?" Blake said.
"I am fine, most of my injuries are already healed" Elise said.
Without wasting much time Elise quickly bowed before Blake and said, "I hope you will accept me as your as your maid."
"huh?"
"HUH!?"
"Y-you mean you want to be my maid?" Blake said in a suprised voice.
"Yes will you be my Master?" Elise said as her face slowly started turning red.
"Why do you want me to be your Master?" Blake asked.
"At that time when the Golden-Bear attacked, you rushed to save us even though you're level was lower than the bear's level. I had already acknowledged you as my master when I saw your determination and courage." Elise said with a warm smile.
Blake thought for a while and said, "*Sigh* Ok, I agree to be your Master."
After knowing Elise for almost a week, he knew that it would be useless to protest about it as she was very stubborn and would rarely go back on her word
Also, Duke Aaron and already suggested Blake to become Elise's master. As it would be beneficial for both sides.
After a few minutes both of them signed a Master and Servant contract. A Master and Servant is signed with their blood and it was almost impossible to break it without both their consent.
[Ding! Elise Clover is now Blake Starling's Maid]
[Both parties can now sense each other in a distance of 10km]
[More functions of Combat Maid's system has been unlocked]
"Please take care of me from now onwards Master" Elise said as she bowed with a shy face.
"Likewise please take care of me." Blake said as he also bowed.
"Also please don't call me master just Blake is fine" Blake said while scratching his head.
"No you are my Master so i will call you Master" Elise said with a stubborn look as if saying she is not gonna change that.
"Ok-ok I get it" Blake sighed and said.
"Oh yeah where are the others?" Blake asked.
"Right now they are in the middle of a training session" Elise said.
"They are training? With who?" Blake asked.
"After you fell unconscious Eira, Raven and Ravel requested Duke Aaron to train them" Elise said.
...
In a field there were two groups training with different methods.
The first group was training their magic where as the other group was training their skills.
"Control over your Mana is more important than control of your elements" The maid who was with them said to Ravel.
She slowly turned towards Eira and said, "As for you, you dominate them rather than control so... Its something i can't help you with sorry."
Eira nodded and began training with her own method.
'Hmm... It seems like she has already found her way for training' The maid thought.
"Fuse both Mana, Qi and Fire element together and form a thin layer of it around your body with it" Duke Aaron explained to Raven and demonstrated it.
Duke Aaron's body was slowly covered by a dark-red flame enveloped his body and formed a dark-red armour with black crack-like lines throughout the armour.
"This technique is one of Phoenix clan's special technique called [Flame Armour]" He said.
Raven did as Duke Aaron told but the fire element, Mana and Qi didn't fuse together and all of them were just floated away.
A few hours went by but Raven's proficiency didn't improve. After using up all her energy she was panting heavily.
"Miss Raven, it seems like Master didn't teach you the phases of this technique properly" The Butler who was with them came from behind and said.
"Hmm... what phases?" Raven said as she gave an angry glare to Duke Aaron.
"urk...I-I was just making sure that you understand it by yourself... Yeah that's the reason its not that I forgot..." Duke Aaron said while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Please tell me more about the phases Simone" Raven said as she ignored Duke Aaron.
"There are three phases for learning this skill Releasing, Fusing and Metarilizing." Simone said.
The training continued but this time with Butler Simone's help she was able to complete the fusing phase in an hour.
...
Blake after fully recovering in 5 hours which would normally take a day or so to recover suprised Elise because of the insane regeneration speed.
"Oh, yes Master both your pupils seems abit different than before" Elise said.
Blake went towards the mirror and saw that his pupils really changed a bit. His left eye became a little bit darker and his right eye became a little lighter.
Blake was suprised that Elise was able to notice such small detail.
"[Sharper Precision] as one of the new skills I obtained after forming a contract with you, using this I was able to easily detect that your pupils were different from before" Elise said even before Blake asked.
"Hmm... it seems like I also have some new skills" Blake said and the list of new skills appeared in his mind.
[Eyes that sees though Everything Ex: Allows you to see through almost anything. You can increase the efficiency by putting in any energy (Can also have different effects depending on the type of energy you put in)]
[ Eyes that Learns Anything Ex: Increases your comprehending speed and allows you to learn and modify any type of skill in an instant (Bloodline skill may not work) ]
[ Intimidate C : The user releases an aura that can intimidate others ]
[ Sealed Memories: Some of your memories are sealed try to unlock them ]
'So that Dream was true and if the Dream is true than that means those figures were my family members' Blake said as he got a little bit emotional but didn't show it.
"Oh after reaching level 20 I got another system skill" Blake said.
It was called [Upgrade] and it had 4 features.
[1.Allows you to upgrade any item by One Rank
2. Can remove any impurities.
3. Can remove any seals.
4. Unlocks any hidden functions if there is any.]
This time Blake was really surprised because any one of these was enough to shake the whole world. Especially the 1st one was unheard of even in the whole universe.
Yes an items rank can be increased and a skill that increases an items rank was also there.
The only difference was that those were a one time use skill and it only works below a certain rank and not any rank.
Blake's system skill didn't have any limit and it also says it will absolutely increase by one rank.
