A Djinn

[: 3rd POV :] 

[: You have slain 1 Emperor Slime and acquired 1 Million Exp :]

[: You have defeated 150 Heavenly Slimes and gained 810,000 Exp :]

[: Congratulations! You have reached Level 166 and earned 1100 Allocated Stat Points :]

[: Congratulations! You have successfully cleared the final stage of the dungeon. Would you like to claim your last reward? :]

With such rewards gained from annihilating the horde of slimes in the last stage, his level increased, but this wasn't the primary outcome he had anticipated.

It was at the end that he looked forward to. 

'Is this it? Are these the final rewards contained in the last stage of the dungeon?'

He still found it hard to believe that the reward lurking in the deep part of the dungeon would be bestowed upon him.

After all, it was one of the most extraordinary powers to possess.

With enthusiasm, he claimed his rewards when a key randomly appeared in the middle of the air.

Knowing its purpose, he grasped it, and a golden door materialized at the end of the dungeon.

As he walked forward and unlocked it, the door opened with a creaking noise, revealing mountains of gold coins and other treasures worth the value of a gold coin.

However, what caught his eye the most was a floating flabellum with white feathers.

'Is that the one? The one everyone calls a Weapon Vessel to summon the Djinn to form a contract with?'

Daniel thought as he moved closer to the floating object.

A Djinn is a fragment of a soul combined with Mana, infused inside a Flabellum as a vessel.

By forming a contract with a Djinn, it allowed users to withdraw the power of the Djinn, known as Djinn Equip or Djinn Weapon Equip.

As he grabbed it, a feminine voice echoed throughout the cave.

"Has a warrior finally arrived and claimed the rewards of this dungeon, I, Paimon, created?" It voiced out.

Smoke poured out from the object, forming into a massive woman with pale blue skin, pointy ears, beautiful long silky hair, and a third eye on its forehead.

She had multiple piercings on her ears and an array of jewellery around her arms.

Fortunately, her chest was covered up by a rounded white robe that goes all the way down to her pelvis in a V shape.

Once her figure manifested, she gazed towards Daniel with a surprised expression.

"Oh? Despite only some time has passed, it seems like you have achieved quite the strength, haven't you, human?"

Paimon lay her body on the ground with her chin playfully resting on her palms while staring at the human with an interested gaze.

"This is quite interesting; it has been quite some time since I have found an interesting master." She smiled seductively.

"Well, since you have cleared the dungeon, it's time I abide by the rules. For clearing the dungeon, do you wish to form a contract with me, human?"

She questioned with a smile.

"Yes," he answered without any hesitation.

"Oh? So fast? But I like that," she chuckled.

"To form a contract with a Djinn, you'll need to drop blood toward the object and let the rest do its job."

Daniel followed her words and dropped a droplet of blood on the object.

Immediately, the flabellum formed a star on its handle, signifying the succession of the binding between a Djinn and a human.

[: Congratulations! You're the first to complete a dungeon. You have received a mystery box :]

[: You have formed a soul-binding contract with the Djinn, Paimon; hence, you have obtained Djinn Equip (S), Djinn Weapon Equip (A) :]

Immediately, the Djinn returned to its vessel, which was the Flabellum, and somehow, the voice of the Djinn could be heard in Daniel's mind.

'Hmmm, now that I see it, aren't you a bit too powerful for someone who doesn't belong to this world? To add on, you seem eerily calm about us, the Djinns'

'Do you perhaps know something about us?' Paimon curiously asked.

Her third eye and powers allowed her to see through everything, whether it was status or any mimicry.

Her third eye gives her the privilege of seeing through an existence, to be precise, a person's soul.

She could pierce through Daniel's soul, and her discovery terrified her.

Deep inside his soul contained three Souls that belonged to the 'Demonia,' an existence that she's 'familiar' with, thought to be extinct and long existed before she was 'brought' into this world.

Paimon, or Djinns, is an existence that has existed for countless years.

The knowledge and wisdom they have accumulated are priceless, which is why those who have obtained Djinns' powers gained a priceless treasure.

But in the first place, what is a Djinn? And why does someone like Paimon remain inside a vessel?

Daniel knew the answers to it all, which is why he didn't panic despite Paimon using her abilities on him.

Knowing that Djinns can transmit their thoughts through their master, Daniel remained calm.

'...' He remained silent, not knowing whether he should tell the truth or not.

By telling her the truth, he could gain her trust, and with them being on contract, that would mean that none of them could betray each other.

'Aren't you guys one of the 'Beings' that sided with the Sovereigns in rebelling against the Divinity Beings?' He revealed.

'Hahahaha. So you knew it after all, mortal? That's interesting'

'How did you even know about it? It's impossible for you, who belonged to another planet, to know about it.'

Paimon couldn't believe her ears, and what was even more unbelievable was how the mortal knew about it.

It was an event that happened millions of years ago, and now, their existence was just a fairy tale.

'How did I know? I guess you will find out in the future,'

Daniel didn't reveal the reason because soon, the truth would be revealed. '

You're an interesting human, and I guess I have contracted with a fascinating human.'

'I'll take that as a compliment,' he smiled.

'Alright then, human. You've got what you wanted, and although I would love to accompany you more than anything, I need to rest inside your body'

'After all, it's been who knows how long I've been contracted, and my energy has run out to maintain my form'

'Well, if you have any questions, you can call me, though I doubt I would answer.'

It was Paimon's last thoughts before she disappeared inside Daniel's body, and he couldn't help but chuckle.
