Powerful

Allen quickly followed Alice's example and turned away from the groaning Feno on the floor.

"Umm- Alice? Since Feno will be out for a while, can you tell me more about Elves? Your husband seems to know a lot, so was he a noble or something similar?"

"Well, he seems to know a lot because he is a Water Elf. It is the most respected weak race of the Elves. Apparently because as long as they are given the chance they can rise greatly in rank and power. Of course, this is through a change of race similar to what Feno is currently doing."

Allen nodded along as Alice kept talking all about the system most races use. (Prelude type stuff)

"Allen you mentioned that these stones are used to upgrade summoning circles?"

"Yes. You can upgrade most items from the system and even individual units if you are ok with a stronger unit as a trade for less use out of the stone. Oh- I also found that the number of units available refreshes when you upgrade the circle."

Alice nodded along as Allen explained everything he had learned about elemental stones. He was even telling her about his theory about some stones being more well suited to some creatures.

Suddenly a foul stench spread out from Feno. Both Allen and Alice quickly covered their faces and left the room as fast as they could. "This didn't happen with Almos..." Allen spoke with a grimace on his face.

Alice was also grimacing as she called out, "David! Come!"

Soon a Human came running before bowing to Alice, "Lord! You called?"

Alice simply nodded, "I need you to prepare a slime bath for my husband. Have it ready in an hour."

As the man nodded and turned around to leave Allen checked his status.

[Race: Human(Enhanced)]

[Vitality - 4]

With his mouth agape Allen could only watch as the impressive human walked away to do his tasks, "Is that what it means to be truly blessed?"

"What do you mean?" Alice on the other hand was wondering why Allen was standing there mouth open like a fool.

Allen saw her confusion and suddenly felt a lot worse, "Is that man what you summoned from your summoning circle?"

"Oh- Yes, he is the most impressive of the ten I summoned, just yesterday we gave him the method to level up and he seems to have already hit level 2."

Allen suddenly felt like there might be hope, "How much better is he?"

Alice on the other hand took the situation very casually, "Oh, he is the only one of the ten with a talent. He is also the only one with a C rank skill, the others have mostly E and F rank skills. I don't really know what makes them all 'enhanced' as the system labels them all. Also, why aren't there more ranks to show where exactly they are? That man gets a plus by his type and suddenly there is such a change, but seriously."

Despite being hurt that they were all summoned with at least one skill, Allen could only be happy that there weren't a bunch of humans constantly being summoned with both talents and skills. "Alice all the humans I summoned in their base form don't get anything. No talents, no skills, nothing. Even their base stats are worse."

Alice looked completely shocked at the difference between the stats and only showed an expression of great pity to Allen. Allen on the other hand seemed to feel like that pity was well deserved.

The pair kept talking in the hallway comparing how humans could differ and suggesting what could be good. This talk lasted until an hour later when David returned and reported back, "Lord, the slime bath is ready."

Allen this time caught on to the main word that was different, "Slime bath? Can you tell me about it, Alice?"

Alice looked at Allen in surprise, "Allen, don't tell me you have never had a slime bath."

Allen shook his head and reminded her that they came from different worlds and had completely different cultures.

"Well, then I shall start with a slime. It is the lowest level of the Fae race, according to Feno. Where I was from it was just considered another beast, but there were a few legends of slimes becoming a type of water spirit after a long time. As for their form, slimes are transparent balls of water and other liquids. These liquids make the water mostly corrosive, but the membrane outside stops anything living from entering it.

This makes it great to make a slime bath out of. They eat everything that is on a person so long as they are hungry making them a bit hard to keep as they eat anything you leave them in. Still, slimes are great at cleaning everything! They even eat away hair leaving the skin smooth without any imperfections. Scar? Use slimes! A month of slime baths can clear the scar leaving perfect skin!"

Soon Allen found himself listening to Alice talk about slime baths like a saleswoman telling her customer about the greatness of their product. Even as she repeated herself Alice never stopped blabbering about how amazing it left her skin. She even claimed her Goddess left slimes here just for her so she could use them to keep herself perfect.

It was only half an hour later when Feno walked out of the room was Allen spared from the overly talkative Alice. Feno on the other hand didn't care about anything and walked out proudly, "I have become a Marsh Elf! Next week I will use another stone to become a Swamp Elf! For now, Allen, I want to join your hunt for the bears!"

Feno had changed greatly having lost his pure white skin for barely tanned skin. His blue hair changed to have turquoise color instead.

Alice only nodded her head while covering her nose, "Go take a slime bath first, I already had David prepare one." Despite his excitement, Feno nodded and quickly went to clean up.

Allen, after making sure every Forest wolf was left for their scouting quickly left back to camp. At camp, Henry and Orion were already preparing for hunting and water gathering trips. Allen didn't disturb them and simply went back to the summoning circles and elemental stones that had been on his mind all day.

After a few moments of hesitation, Allen upgraded the Wind Wolves summoning circle with another wind stone as he had done before with all other summoning circles.

[Upgrade (Wind Wolf Summoning Circle) -> (Tornado Wolf Summoning Circle)]

[Yes]

The summoning circle suddenly started pulling the air as the door was forcefully pushed open as a large gust of wind rushed inside. Slowly the wind calmed down as the light subsided.

Allen didn't hesitate and summoned ten more wolves as soon as he saw them available. Soon another bright flash of light blinded him, again the wind rushed in as a huge amount swirled inside as it quickly gathered onto the summoning circle. Just as the wind seemed to stop increasing in strength, the window broke letting in a larger storm in as the wind gathered to the summoning circle.

Allen could only brace himself against a nearby wall as he did his best to not get blown away. The storm slowly subsided as the flash of light disappeared revealing ten large wolves. These wolves seemed very special having fur mostly white and silver making them look sleeker and more beautiful.

Still, they were wolves and quickly rolled over to show their stomach as an act of submission. Smiling happily Allen checked their stats.

[Race: Tornado Wolf]

[Type: Enhanced+]

[Level 4]

[Vitality - 22]

[Strength - 27]

[Agility - 100]

[Intelligence - 70]

[Skills: Wind Howl, Wind Cutter, Wind movement, Tornado Manipulation]

[Loyalty - 100]

[Note: The Wind can be your guide or weapon.]

[Tornado Manipulation (C rank) -> Allows the user to create a tornado and push it once. The more energy put in the bigger the tornado.]

[Wind Howl (E rank) -> The user's howl is one with the wind allowing it to push it in certain directions. The more energy the more push available.]

Seeing how powerful the wolves were Allen quickly made a decision to buy more wind stones. Having just killed two bears, Allen had obtained over 40 thousand units of food from each! The current prices of wind stones were 3,000 having risen from 1,000 since the last time he had bought them. Still, that didn't stop him from buying 20 wind stones without any hesitation. Although he wanted to buy more, other wind stones had prices that had risen anywhere between 4,000 to 6,000.
