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

-----

A few hours passed as I slept, and I was testing the interior of my Spirit Orb. I had concluded that this world was somehow an illusion yet not.

The world by itself seemed realistic, grabbing the dirt was possible, even rocks could be thrown around and they would make an impact in the floor. There was a gentle and cold breeze, and it seemed realistic.

However, on the other hand, the "realistic" bodies we had in there were not really our own, or well, at least for me. My body in here was just a projection of my soul, something called Astral Projection, it is when a soul projects itself in the shape of how you see yourself as.

I had tried using Eleanora's help to bring things from here outside, but it proved to be impossible, the dirt would disappear when carried outside.

Maybe it could be said that this was very similar to a virtual reality world.

In my previous life there were several civilizations with a lot of technology that were able to simulate worlds through virtual reality. I had used such technology to train myself in many ways, and it proved to be quite useful.

This, could be said to be similar, however, I had not heard of this from anyone… This could quite possibly mean that not many can do such a thing as entering their own Spirit Orb, and this might be my own unique ability.

Nonetheless, I found something intriguing, although there were no monsters to kill and gain EXP from, grabbing rocks and throwing them using Throwing Technique… increased my Skill Proficiency.

There was nothing to butcher here, but by analyzing the different rocks lying around and even some strange grasses and flowers, Butcher's proficiency increased, as it was a skill that could also be used this way.

And by exercising in various ways, while also running around, jumping and more, gave me a few points in Acrobatics Proficiency.

Eleanora also noticed this within her own Skills, she also shared the curse with me, so growing for her would be 100 times as hard.

However, there was a wonderful opportunity in this internal "virtual" world, we could slowly gain Skill proficiency while practicing Skills.

It appears that I cannot learn new Skills though, I had practiced doing other things such as martial arts, and even sparred against Eleanora a bit. Also, my physical body doesn't increase in strength either, or any of my Stats, apparently.

But Skill Proficiency kept rising, even if by +1 point just by throwing a rock. I need 10k proficiency to level up the Throwing Technique… so I require to throw 10k rocks, perhaps.

"This is amazing! In here we can really train our abilities!" said Eleanora. She was summoned just a day ago, so I didn't blamed her for not realizing this sooner by herself. She most likely slept in here whenever she came here.

"Indeed, this is quite good, with this, even with the penalties we have, we can gain some extra time to practice skills and gain proficiency… Although it seems that magic cannot be conjured here… So I will have to practice that outside, but I do feel the flow of Mana and Qi… and even more strongly Aether." I said.

"I do feel the same… perhaps this is a good place to practice the flow of energies as well! And Aether! With Aether, you can strengthen your soul and add yet another layer of power to you! Perhaps if you could relearn your Soul Devouring technique, you could even devour souls to make your soul stronger at a quicker pace, or even cause mutations on it!" said Eleanora.

She was very hyped.

"Skills don't seem to be possible to learn, but we can accumulate proficiency, and about techniques outside the Grimoire? Perhaps these do work… But let's first continue sparring and gaining skill proficiency. Before starting Aether Cultivation, let's first practice our current skills, while also innately making the flow of Aether rush through our souls," I said.

"Oh, classic multi-task practice! Very well!" said Eleanora. She was used to my harsh multi-task trainings.

The ability to both controls the flow of energies around your body to strengthen it and then refine the energies, while also moving your body and practicing other techniques or skills, this is what I call efficiency.

Of course, not many can even do such a thing. They would instantly faint on the floor without being able to concentrate their minds on these two taxing actions at the same time.

But Eleanora and I had been practicing this since we were mere children in our previous lives. Thousands of years of practice had sharpened our minds, even after reincarnation, we can keep up with such a harsh training without any complications!

And like that, we trained and trained, until I woke up when my mother called me for dinner.

I realized I had gained around 600 proficiency in all three of my Skills, and the flow of Aether, Mana, and Qi around my body and soul had become a little bit better…

It works! I can really do this… Did Lucifer not see this coming?

The amount of time that passes is the same though, there is no time dilation between the outside world and inside the Spirit Orb, but that doesn't really matter for now.

Erika wasn't here for dinner and stayed in her home. She had sent a little doll here, part of her incredible Spirit to send the message that "she was staying with daddy".

p The doll, which was red-haired was seemingly made of wood with a white dress and holding a staff, stayed with us while we ate. Apparently, Erika already learned how to share her senses with it, and could see us a bit with it.

This proved to be annoying when I went to sleep, because the doll wanted to sleep at my side… I decided to not allow it, as I told Erika to stop controlling the doll and go to sleep herself.

The doll seemed saddened, but it nodded, and dissipated into spirit energy.
