Not only have my stats gone up by a lot, but yesterday several Skills simultaneously leveled up after I had finally reached enough Skill EXP, all those at Level 4 were reached painstakingly after years of constant practice, which had become more easy to do now that my physique has developed a lot. I’ve also realized that cultivating my physique granted Skill EXP to all body-related Skills, so that might had boosted their level up speed as well.
Currently, I also have 40 Skill Points, and 20 Stat Points I have yet to assign. I am tempted to use all my Stat Points into Strength once more, overpowering an adult man as an eight-year-old child truly felt great. However, for now, I’ll spend the Stat Points into Intelligence, as I want to boost the power of my low tiered Spells.
[You have exchanged 20 Stat Points]
[Your Intelligence has increased by +20]
With that done, it was time to spend the 40 Skill Points I had accumulated. And the obvious choice was nothing else than the last Skill in my Invoker Skill Tree!
[You have exchanged 25 Skill Points]
[You learned the [Familiar Synthesis: Lv1] Skill]

[Familiar Synthesis: Lv1]
Skill Proficiency: 0/10000
As an Invoker, you not only have the power to summon familiars, but also to synthetize and combine them, creating brand new Familiars. New Familiars created through Synthesis can only be created through it but are registered in the Grimoire. Only Familiars of the same Rank can be created. To Synthetize Grades above E Rank, Spirit Orbs are required. Certain types of Familiars can only be created through Synthesis.
Available Synthesis:
Level 1: [H Grade] [G Grade]
Level 2: Locked

Hm, it is just what I had expected it to be! With this, I can possibly bring completely new Summons to life… But the thing is, once I discover them I still need to do the same formula to create them, meaning that Synthetized Familiars will naturally require even more MP than the other ones. So… hopefully they’re strong and useful.
Hmm… Let’s try it out for now.
“Familiar Synthesis.”
The Grimoire pages suddenly showed up a special set of pages, each one had a small orifice where I could place a Summon Card. I analyzed it for a bit, and then took out two Random G Grade Cards I had, [Fenrir] and [Huginn] and placed them.
Synthesis also had its own independent cost of MP, usually seemed to vary depending in the card grade, perhaps, but as of now, it was asking me 50 MP for the fusion, quite costly, but fine.
FLASH!
I saw both cards suddenly unifying together in a flash of bright light, and what came out of it was…
[You have synthetized [Bug (G Grade)] Summon Card]
A new Bug type Summon Card!
What is it this time?
I looked into the Card’s appearance, and it resembled a… A Rhinoceros Beetle.
Huh, so a Beast type and a Bird type Card creates a Bug type card? Hmm…
I tried doing it again, wasting 50 MP and a Fenrir and Huginn Card, the same card came out.
I see, so it is not random, there are fixed recipes.
Well, let’s see what this is about… Come out.
FLASH!
BOOOM!
Suddenly, an enormous, three-meter big Rhinoceros Beetle came out. It was so enormous that it made the floor tremble, and it barely fit inside of my room!
“Shit! Come back! Now!”
FLASH!
The creature quickly went back to a card, as I was left in the floor surprised.
It was a bit too big.
“Blake! Blake?! What was that commotion?”
Knock, knock!
My mother suddenly knocked the door.
“It was… Erm, a summon.”
“Oh… Well, don’t summon them inside if they’re going to make the entire house tremble!”
“Okay, I get it. Sorry.”
“Hmph… Come downstairs for breakfast dear.”
“Alright.”
As my mother walked downstairs, I was finally left alone to analyze things properly.

This thing is monstrously min maxed.
By sacrificing Agility, Intelligence, and Dexterity, this is definitely a strong Familiar. I had never expected Bugs to be so strong as this. I suppose they’re not that tied to types. This thing is definitely a fighter and defender. I could bring him out in situations where I need a living wall.
Both of his Skills were interesting, Horn Charge is similar to Orcus Charge, and enhances his speed a lot while using it, charging at an opponent, and piercing them with its sharp horn. The other makes it possible for Brutus to grab an opponent and throw them into the ground furiously… or so it says on its description. Both Skills enhance his damage dealt by a lot.
Honestly speaking, I am a bit surprised, his buff gives three stats at the same time, this is the first time this happens. Perhaps more Synthetized Familiars will give triple buffs? If that’s so, synthetizing only for the triple buffs would already be amazingly useful. However, experimenting each combination of cards will be painful, and a real MP waster.
Hm… Nonetheless, the more Skill EXP I get, the faster I’ll be able to synthetize higher ranked Familiars, because my other Skills… Well, they’re all already at Level 2 just after I created Brutus twice.
[The [Create/Delete Familiar: Lv1] [Summon/Unsummon Familiar: Lv1] [Familiar Storage Expansion: Lv1] Skills have leveled up]
[You gained +10 Familiar Card Storage]
[You can now Create and Summon F Grade Familiars]
I couldn’t help but smile as I saw these words in front of me. I had just reached the 10k EXP for all three Skills almost simultaneously. With this, I can store ten more cards, which means even more bonus Stats, and alongiside that… F Grade Familiars!
“I’ve already gathered enough Spirit Orbs to turn some of you into F Ranks, so eat up all you want!”
It was a feast for my Familiars.
