Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

[You learned the [Butcher: Lv1] Skill]

-----

[Butcher: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 0/10000

While butchering, naturally gives you the insight to masterfully take out the parts of a monster and detect which one is the best. It also gives insight into which parts can be more valuable. This ability enhances its effects with each level.

-----

I suppose it not only helps with taking out pieces but also gives me insight in terms of quality and value? I see. It might evolve into something similar to an Appraisal-like Skill, perhaps…

Though… the Proficiency needing 10k is a bit too exaggerated to level it up, this will take me years to level up, what a pain…

Oh well, at the very least I will be butchering a lot of monsters each day from now on…

"Son, you're way too good at this! I think you just surpassed me with natural talent…" sighed my father, he felt defeated.

"I have nothing to teach you…" he sighed.

"Well there's still Erika, let's teach her together." I suggested.

"Oh right!" exclaimed my father, his eyes shone brightly.

"Chuuu!"

Suddenly, his spirit was summoned out of his chest, Earth Mouse.

"Oh! So that's how other spirits are?" asked Eleanora, seeing the little mouse walking around.

"Yes, this is my Spirit, Earth Mouse… It is nothing compared to you though, Eleanora." said my father.

"It is cute, can I pet it?" asked Eleanora.

"…Sure, why not? Come here rat." Said my father.

"Chuu?!" Earth mouse looked at Eleanora with surprise, she was a spirit like him, yet she was way stronger…

"Ah, so cute… I love pet rats." Said Eleanora, grabbing Earth Mouse and petting him carefully.

"Chuuu… Chuu…" Earth Mouse resisted, but ultimately was overwhelmed by Eleanora's pettings.

She does indeed like rats, in our previous life she had a farm of rats of various colors and breeds she held as pets, they were all well clean too, and cute and strong. Each one wielded an element as well, they were her monster pets, and worked with her in battle sometimes. They were known as the "Rat Squadron".

I guess she misses them, they were her precious pets… Very so often we grow so attached to our pets that we see them as members of our family as well. I had my own pets as well; I missed them too.

"Hehe, I never saw someone like the rat so much." Giggled my father.

"I can see potential in him, why don't you train him?" asked Eleanora.

"Train him? Well, Spirits cannot grow stronger by training as we do… It usually takes a lot of effort for us to receive the Blessing of the Holy Spirits while defeating a strong enemy, after hunting a lot of boars, I cannot grow stronger so easily unless I invest in materials to do rituals and weird things that rich people do to enhance their spirit orbs." Said father.

"Hm? Blessing of the Holy Spirits?" I asked while raising an eyebrow.

"Well, you don't know, son? I guess you've never killed a beast before… When you kill a monster, your Talent grows stronger. Even if you don't have talent, you also grow a bit stronger. Usually, the first time you kill something, you immediately receive the blessing, but gradually it becomes harder… Whenever you gain it, you kind of "feel it", you know?" said my dad.

What? Is that Leveling Up? So the people in this world do indeed "level up" but don't have any way to tell other than the sudden boost they get by slaying beasts… I see.

So father probably hit a barrier on his level somehow, and now he needs to beat monsters that are way stronger than what's found around these forests.

Wait, that means that my father, despite his looks, is quite strong.

I have indeed felt like his Qi was off the charts sometimes, but I thought that was just the natural Qi of a grown adult…

When people level up, it appears that their Qi naturally increases, which is also connected to the strengthening of their bodies.

"I see… I didn't know that happened, must be exciting…" I said.

"Y-Yeah!" said Eleanora.

"Maybe we could hunt one day?" wondered Erika.

"When you grow a bit more, you're way too young for that. I started hunting at ten years old." Said my father.

"Is that so…" I said while averting my gaze.

If he knows I slew all these wolves, he'd probably lose his sanity.

"So Spirits can also do this?" I asked.

"Yes, Spirits share our strength and grow stronger as well, but this Rat only develops abilities that make the dirt richer, and my Talent: Farmer, does not do much with fighting either… So most of the bonuses I get are just physical strength. Although I am pretty good using a long spear." explained my father.

"Ooh, I've never seen you holding one before," I said.

"I only take it out when it's time to hunt, I'll show it to you later, son." Said my father.

At the end, we continued butchering the wolves with a lot of energy while chatting with father. We ended up taking around two hours doing the whole thing. After that, we separated the pelts and left them drying over the roof of the house, so they would get dry.

After that, we cut down all the meat from the bones and separated them as well, mother took a large bowl of the meat and began to cut it into tiny pieces rather masterfully until it turned into meat paste.

After that, she poured in salt and other spices, including lemon juice too, and then left it resting for the rest of the day.

While lunch was still a bit far away today, we decided to go to the plaza and enjoy a day off there, playing ball for the most part, although I also liked to look around and inspect the people and their spirits, just by looking I can sometimes learn a lot of insights…

Some people noticed Eleanora's appearance and looked at her weirdly though.
