Almighty Summoner System

'System, give me the details about Little Eva's evolution.' Ban uttered under his breath as he read the row of words that had materialized in front of his eyes.

[Affirmative!

A new evolution path is now available for the Contracted Beast, 'Eva'.

Demon Ant (Queen Candidate) can evolve to Demon Ant (Variant) (Crown Princess)

Successful evolution will unlock,

-Another Form

-Evolved [Skills]

-Stronger battle ability

-1x Royal Demon Ant Guard

Evolution Requirements: Let the Contracted Beast fully absorb the essence of a Lord level Beast Core in one setting.

]

As Ban read the description, he could not help but sigh at the obvious coincidence.

He got a Lord Level Beast Core but also needs to part ways with it the next moment.

However, Ban did not get salty over it as he was already planning to let Little Eva consume it in the first place.

After hearing Grandpa Kuys teachings earlier, Ban somehow gained a deeper understanding regarding the Adventurers and how they strengthened themselves.

Just like Monsters, Summoners will be able to strengthen themselves with time and effort. They can consume herbs, eat Beast Meat, and even consuming Beast Cores to ascend to the next rank.

However, unlike the Monsters, the Summoners will first need to utilize a technique that can allow them to absorb energy from the herbs and other things.

These are the so-called Core Manuals. Unlike the Book of Techniques, these Core Manuals are pretty common. Almost all of the Adventurers have it in their possession.

However, the grade and legitimacy of such Core Manuals were still in question. And even if they are legit, every Core Manuals can produce different kinds of effects. Some Manuals allowed fast absorption while others have a very slow absorption rate.

It all depends on the Grade of the Core Manuals.

Grandpa Kuys offered Ban his Core Manual but Ban chose to reject it.

There are a lot of Core Manuals that are for sale and he reasoned that he will buy one for his own when he got the money. Although Grandpa Kuys was adamant about letting Ban accept the Core Manual at first, Ban finally managed to successfully reject him after a few minutes of persuasion.

However, the real reason why Ban did not accept the Core Manual in the first was due to the existence of his [Skill] Greed. With it around, forget about the E-Elite Rank, he was even confident about reaching the next Rank after the E-Elite Rank just by relying on that [Skill] alone.

And not only that, with Little Eva's title, he doesn't even need to actively strengthen himself. As long as he helped Little Eva get stronger faster, his Rank and strength will also follow along.

After reading the requirements, Ban did not waste any more time as he retrieved the Lord Level Beast Core that was inside his [Item] Dimensional Storage.

The Beast Core then materialized on his hand palm after a swift glow.

Ban sat down straight on his bed as he patted the area beside him. "Come here, Little Eva!"

He patted the bed as he glanced at Eva who was curiously looking around his room.

Hearing his voice, Eva did not hesitate even for a second as she directly hopped towards the area that Ban has patted.

Ban then proceeded to ask the Almighty Summoner System for the proper method to absorb the Beast essence from the Beast Core.

[Affirmative Host! Injecting knowledge in 3… 2… 1…!

Successful!

]

Ban closed his eyes and nodded his head in understanding as he absorbed the new knowledge that appeared inside his brain.

A while later, he finally opened his eyes, the fastest method on how to absorb the Beast Core was already deeply etched on his mind and he could not help but feel excited upon his first Summon's evolution.

Ban then explained to Little Eva what she needed to do.

Ban followed the method strictly, as he taught Little Eva at the same time.

Little Eva keeps on nodding her head cutely as Ban explained it to her.

"Did you get it Little Eva?" Ban inquired.

Krrr! Krrrr! Krrr!

Little Eva replied with her usual Krrr! Krrr! sound, as she raised both of her front legs in acknowledgment.

"Alright, let's start it now then!" Ban said as he handed little the Lord Level Beast Core on his hand.

The method that the [Book of Techniques] All About Them provided was precise and on point.

According to it, there is no need for the Beast to consume the Beast Core directly as it would just become wasted in such a brute way of absorbing it.

According to the 'All About Them,' one only needs to put the Beast Core near enough or in contact with the absorber.

Ban chose the latter as he felt that it is more reliable than just laying the Beast Core close enough.

The Beast will then need to recite and follow the mantra that was also provided by the All About Them Book of Techniques.

After this step is done, the Summoner would then help the Beast absorb Beast Core by giving them 'moral support!'

"Go, Little Eva, you can do it!"

If the person who wrote the Book of Techniques sees this scene, they would surely applaud Ban for his enthusiasm.

The absorption process was not an easy task, the Beast needs to concentrate as it might fail if they got distracted. Of course, according to the author of the All About Them book, providing moral support will lessen the probability of failure.

And so, for almost two hours, Ban did nothing other than to cheer on Little Eva that was trying to absorb the Lord Level Beast Core as hard as she can.

He waited anxiously as he stared at the Beast Core that had now become much smaller compared to the first time he saw it.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

A sudden cracking sound startled Ban as he traced the source of it. And when his gaze landed on the Beast Core that was now full of cracks, he could not help but gasp in shock and bewilderment.
