Eldritch Creature's Guide



The High Jarl was the highest political authority within the Skrånøtiå and contrary to the Monarchs of other nations, the succession of the Skrånøtiå was determined on the meeting of Jarls called moot, where the candidates for the High Jarl would fight among themselves and only the strongest and most competent would be chosen for the High Jarl.

When it came to the request of the Bishop who was the highest religious authority in the Skrånøtiå, it was almost impossible for the High Jarl to refuse the request and soon enough, Samiel received a few messages on his Holo-Brain.

One of them was access to the information network of the Skrånøtiå, which was filled with the exact thing that Samiel needed. It was primordial truth that the information were one of the most destructive and deadly weapons ever.

A piece of very detailed information about all of the pirate crews that operated in the Northern Oceans, together with the Sea Lords and Pirate Kings and even some of the nations that secretly or openly supported the various pirate crews.

The second one was the list of warships that the Skrånøtiå could sell them.

Samiel immediately started screening through them and chose one of the best warships at the 500,000 Credits. It was a small investment, on top of which he could always sell it back at a good price if the ship was in good condition.

"I thank you very much for your help, Your Excellency Bishop Viglar. If possible, could you please assist me in procuring a crew? Using undead has proven to be inefficient. Having Vikings and Templar Knights as part of my crew would be the most productive scenario."

Bishop Viglar agreed with this sentiment, acknowledging that using undead was not the most efficient method of controlling a ship.

"I will send an entire crew for the ship at the later that... for now, you should go and find your lodgings within the Cathedral that was already prepared for your needs."

Samiel then thanked Bishop Viglar and went to meet Yvraine and Juulius, who were waiting for him at the back of the grand cathedral.

They needed to find their dwellings within the grand cathedral of the Hall of Kadath.

As they would be using the nation of Skrånøtiå as their home base for the time being, they unanimously decided to stay in the grand cathedral of the Hall of Kadath because it was of a high standard and, most importantly, it was free.

"Good news is that I got us ship, crew and even dwellings... the bad would be, we need to wait a few days before we could set sail. During that time, we need to plan our sailing route toward the most notorious pirate crews with the highest bounties and other places of interest. I already have access to the information network of the Skrånøtiå Kingdom."

Samiel said to Yvraine and Juulius as soon after he returned to both of them, a servant came, clearly a member of the lower clergy, only a priest-in-training who would lead them to their dwelling.

Because the Grand Cathedral of the Hall of Kadath in Skrånøtiå was an enormous building, it took some time before they arrived at the part of it where their chambers were located.

Yvraine and Samiel naturally got a big room that they would be sharing, while Juulius got a bit smaller room compared to theirs, in the same hall.

Like the rest of the building, their chamber looked like a cut out from some gothic movie, with an enormous king-sized bed in the middle, naturally colored black, which Yvraine already eyed with sparkles in her eyes.

"Do you want to test the bed?"

Even though the offer was pretty much tempting for him, right now was not the time for activities like that because Samiel wanted to train for a bit.

He sensed that he could continue to increase his Level once more because it was a long since he did so the last time and Mana in his body was already stabilized enough.

Not to mention, there was still one Magic Grimoire, Basic Principles of the Mythos Necrosis, that was impatiently waiting for him to open it.

From the moment he got his hands on that book, he heard its whispers and temptations that it was constantly giving him.

He knew that the consciousness of that one was bent on driving its users mad and probably turning them into puppets for the Outer Gods to play. Such was the nature of the Necronomicon when it was in its peak state.

According to the legends, it could enslave Holies like Demigods or False Immortals and so on, those with weaker wills just within a few sentences and the moment a person opened the Necronomicon, he was forever lost to the will and whims of the accursed book.

"Spoilsport... whatever... I will then entertain myself."

Yvraine shrugged as he wanted to curse in his mind because he knew what would be following... while he would normally be eager to have some sexy time with his Silvermoon Princess, he didn't want the spend upcoming days in bed entirely.

'At least I should get master some of the basic spells from the Mythos Magic before my will to resist her temptations will crumble apart...'

Samiel knew that when it came to seducing, he couldn't say no to Yvraine for a prolonged time and she always got what she wanted... especially when she wanted her healthy dose of D.

Decided to ignore Yvraine for now; for as long as he could, he sat down cross-legged and entered the meditation while circulating the Nuclear Void Mana Control Method and one after another, he was draining one Silver-Tier Mana Crystal after another.

He sensed that the Mana inside his core was increasing bit by bit, being refined from the Mana Crystals, refined and tempered to become an extraordinary unique kind of Mana that was unique to his very own existence.

[User Samiel Zentaur has reached Level 41.]

[Proficiency with the Mana Control Method: Nuclear Void Mana Control Method has been increased by 1%.]

He heard the notification from the Akashic Records approximately ten minutes later after he reached Level 41 and then Samiel decided to stop with this. He felt that the increase was rather big in terms of his raw power.

After that, he would need at least a few days to adjust to it properly.

From the other part of the room, Yvraine looked at him with interest and some levels of lust, because she was getting off from Samiel getting stronger... it was like some sort of aphrodisiac for her...

"Wait more time if you could... I will be coming to you soon, so for now, play with yourself."

Samiel said to her, as he couldn't take his eyes off Yvraine in lingerie.
