Half a moment.

After the line of sight disappeared for a long time, Gilan finally let out a sigh of relief.

He calmed down and raised his hand, revealing the sapphire ring in his palm.

The contract in the air was burned by invisible fire, turned into little bits of light, and finally fell on the ring.

Gilan uses the Gnosis induction ring to "see" the hexagonal sapphire the size of a fingernail, with tiny characters engraved on it: "Vivi·Nino Dofrenitan".

This is a method he imposed to restrain his familiar according to the records in the <Branding Iron Secret Record> channeling ritual.

From now on, Vivi cannot leave him and will be bound in a sapphire ring.

You can only come out with his permission.

Of course, if Gilan wants to set it free, all he has to do is cast "Holy Covenant Spell" again and ask May Hour-God to "Twin Kites" to unilaterally tear up the contract and smash the sapphire ring.

According to <Branding Iron Secret Record>, wizards can often only have one familiar at a time, which is related to the contract.

"Vivi, come here."

Gilan walked to the table by the window, sat on the chair and said.

The female devil slowly raised her head. Under her long black hair was a pitifully beautiful face. She tentatively stretched out her hand, and when her fingertips successfully crossed the ritual magic circle, she sighed in relief and stood up.

Immediately, he twisted his waist and hips, walked up to Gilan, and knelt down in front of his knees.

"Master." It whispered.

Vivi carefully stretched out his hand, placed it on Gilan's knee, leaned his head on it, raised his face, and looked up at his master.

"Do you need Vivi to serve you? Vivi also has everything that female humans have, and can even do things they can't do..."

As it spoke, it stretched out its long black tongue and licked its lips.

The slender black tail on the rear hip stood up, twisting and swaying in mid-air, and even tentatively wrapped around Gilan's waist, winding downwards...

Snap!

Gilan slapped Vivi on the face with his backhand.

"Did I allow you to touch me?" he said expressionlessly.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Master!"

Vivi tilted his head, immediately lowered his head in fear, and retracted his tail.

"Don't touch me without permission in the future, let alone try to seduce me."

Gilan grabbed its black horns, lifted its head, and said coldly.

"Yes! Vivi Got it, Master!" the female devil said quickly.

Gilan took a look at the female devil in front of him, noticed her naked image and her alluring figure, and said:

"Change your image."

Vivi was startled. It didn't understand why the owner, as a male human being, hated the way he looked.

"Yes, Master." But it didn't dare to ask or think about it, so it could only nod.

The next second, Vivi made a bang sound and transformed into a tiny humanoid shape as big as a palm in the smoke full of sulfur smell.

It looks like a smaller version of Vivi, but a pair of mini bat wings has grown out of its back, and its body is covered with black scales, which just blocks the key parts.

It flaps its wings and floats in front of its owner.

"That's good." Gilan nodded.

After receiving the owner's approval, Vivi giggled and spun around in a circle.

"Tell me, what powers do you have?" Gilan asked.

He still needs to know more about his familiar.

Vivi didn't dare to hide anything and honestly explained:

"In addition to the abilities of 'low Gnosis cannot be seen', 'penetrating objects', 'immunity to physical damage' and 'possession' that all devils possess, Vivi also knows how to 'Bloodthirst Curse', 'Confusion Curse', 'Love Spell', 'Hatred Curse' and 'Mind Invasion'."

"Oh?" Gilan was a little surprised.

According to the content of <Devil Summoning Record>, the author Shadai recorded information on 155 devils, but most of them did not have additional abilities. Only a few mastered individual spells, most of which were "Bloodthirst Curse" or "Snake Scale Curse".

Take the devil lord Mukla as an example.

When it was caught by Shadai, it only had three spells, namely "Bloodthirst Curse", "Snake Scale Curse" and "Flame Curse".

According to Shadai's annotation, Hell has a strict hierarchy, and only "nobles" have the ability to perform multiple spells.

It can be seen from this that Vivi is not an ordinary devil.

"You are the 'Hell noble'?" Gilan said calmly.

Vivi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed in a flattering way.

"Master knows so much..." it said, nodding in recognition. "Vivi was born from 'Evil Wind Territory' under 'Corridor', and naturally belongs to 'Second Ring Baron'."

"I only pity the lord Evil Wind Territory. He has been killed by other lords long ago, and Vivi has become a collarless noble wandering around Hell Corridor."

Gilan nodded and learned more about Vivi.

Immediately, he inquired in detail about the specific effects of the five additional abilities that Vivi had mastered.

Vivi answered them one by one and did not dare to neglect.

According to it, "Bloodthirst Curse" can temporarily improve fighting desire and physical fitness. The disadvantage is that after the effect wears off, it will cause a period of weakness.

"Confusion Curse" disrupts the target's mental consciousness, thereby making the target unconscious... "Love Spell" is similar to "Hatred Curse", but it is clearly misleading and can cause it to generate strong emotions that do not exist out of thin air.

As for "Mind Invasion", this is a rare ability among devils. It can invade the target's consciousness, destroy its spirit, change its temperament, and even steal its memory.

Just now Vivi was trying to invade Gilan's mind, but unexpectedly he hit an iron plate.

As soon as it entered, it heard the cry of "Lordran·Drangleic·Lothric", and was almost backfired by the flaming cross sword.

Vivi has lingering fears about this, and is even more inexplicably afraid of his master.

'The devil is indeed an evil creature that plays with people's hearts.'

Gilan thought to himself and asked the familiar again:

"Can your 'Bloodthirst Curse' work on me?"

"Of course, Master." Vivi said.

Gilan heard this and nodded with satisfaction.

With the help of his familiar Vivi, he has another powerful help.

This can be regarded as the first mysterious power he has mastered after entering "Path of the Flaming Sword" and becoming Spirit Mystic.

'I didn't expect that when I arranged the channeling ceremony for the first time, I would withdraw money.'

Gilan is secretly happy.

Thinking back to his previous life when he was Game Streamer, he had never had good luck in drawing cards, characters, weapons, skins and even all the activities of opening boxes and drawings.

Pure guarantee Warrior.

Unexpectedly, after traveling through another world, he was transported to another place.

'What a wonderful life.' He couldn't help but sigh. 'Thank you for the new life!'

I glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already five minutes to five in the morning.

The pouring rain outside the window finally subsided, but the sky was still dark.

Gilan didn't sleep all night, but his mental state was still full. He knew that this was the reason why he had "Mind Kingdom".

Even if you don't sleep for three days and three nights, you can still maintain a lot of energy.

'It's almost dawn anyway, so let's go to the fourth floor attic to stretch our muscles and warm up, so as to prepare for the next day's actions.'

Gilan secret channel.

He did not forget the agreement he made with Mr. Stork, but he was not sleepy either, so he raised his hand and made a move towards the little familiar.

"Come here."

"Yes, Master."

Vivi responded with a sweet voice, flapped his bat wings, drew a beautiful arc, and disappeared into the sapphire ring worn by Gilan on his middle finger.

Gilan wiped away the chalk marks on the ritual magic circle, packed up the materials, reset the bed, and pulled out a piece of cashmere carpet to cover the charred pits left on the wooden floor.

Then he turned around, opened the door and walked out.
