The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 17: Plans to use my Talent

My talent is Ritualistic Summoning, which is graded EX.

The grades in the world of Ragos are as follows: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS. The grades start at F, which is the lowest, and end at SSS, which is the highest. I have never seen any mention of grades above SSS. So I have no idea how high the grade is or how low it is. There is a chance that EX might be below F grade.

Unless I test out the effects, I can't say if the grade is better or worse. This was my opinion before I saw the results that I got from my Physique which too was graded as EX. From what I have seen so far, I can assume that the EX-grade is definitely not below F-grade.

Though I never tried what my talent was about, I did read a lot of books in the library. In this world, knowledge is compartmented and restricted. The access to knowledge about the magic depends on your rank.

When I had yet to awaken, there wasn't much knowledge regarding the awakeners available to me. The knowledge available was enough for me to under and prepare before awakening.

Only when I awakened successfully did I get access to one of the restricted sections. Even though I have awakened, not all the knowledge was made available to me. Since I was at Tier-0, knowledge up to Tier-3 was allowed. Only once I reach Tier-3 would the knowledge about the above ranks be opened to me.

Even though most of the important knowledge was still restricted for me, I still was able to learn what I needed.

I read books on Alchemy, Formations, Rituals, and every other subject that I can find in the library. Once I joined the academy, everything would be done online.

The knowledge I could read was public knowledge or what my family collected on their own. Except for that, no one can teach others, even their family the knowledge that they learn at the academy. I don't know why exactly such a restriction exists. Anyway, that has nothing to do with me.

The thing was I was able to read some books on rituals. I copied those and stored them on my bracelet. Now I can review everything that I wanted. This was not against family rules but the knowledge can't be shared.

In this world Knowledge is power. This is something that they accept more than on Earth. The one who holds the knowledge would have the final win. This what they believe.

This is especially hold true because, there a lot of skills that appear in the world but they weren't revealed to the world. This is not just about power but also about wihing to live.

If I had revealed about my physique or talent, no matter the protection my family can provide, there is no chance that I would have lived this long. It would be the same case if I had revealed my secondary affinity, Blood.

My family has been for over a milleneia, and that means that there are a lot of enemies and that would like to crush our family if they got the chance. Moreover, anyone in power wouldn't want other to hold that kind of power. Forget about anyone else, I wouldn't like that.

So if my family shows too much talent, that would give rise to new enemies that are willing to crush us before we can reach their level, as that would mean sharing power, which everyone hates to do so.

There are many geniues that died because of that. If I hadn't had read those webnovels in my past life, I would have naively revealed my talents, so that I would gain a good position in the family. I would temporarily but I wouldn't live long enough after that.

Normally, people can't read other people's status without permission, but this is a magical world where anything is possible. There is a high chance that out there is someone who has a skill that can read other's panel without permission. It would be rather dangerous.

Now, it looks like there are lot of things to do survive in this world. As time progresses, I feel that there is no way for me to survive in this life without going through the usual hassle that a MC goes through.

I have no wishes like ruling the world or marrying a princess. So I should be good right?

I hope so, if that is not possible, I hope that the talent of me would do something miraclous and help me have a safe and prosperous life without having to face so many dangers.

Anyway, in these weeks hunting, I was able to get the materials that I need for basic rituals and summoning.

I don't know what exactly I am summoning through this ritual, as the name was not mentioned in the book that I found in the family library. The book though, didn't seem to be in the index which showed all the book that are available in the library.

I didn't understand why but it worked in my favor, but I am not an idiot. I prepared well for containing whatever that comes because of this. If it was dangerous, I would be in danger and may have to lose my life, which I don't want to.

I am going through the ritual because of the items that were required. Most of them are low-level items, except the Ink that was used to draw the circles and inscription.

The items required are also quite wierd, because it requires the body of slimes. Who would want their bodies?

There is nothing one can do with their bodies. Even the cores are usually discarded or used in equipment making.

Thinking about slimes, what are their skills?

I never checked, infact I don't believe anyone has checked what skills they possess. Maybe something useful or useless. I should check them just in case. If I am lucky, I might find something useful is there.
