An Extra’s POV

Chapter 571

Rey no longer had any [Binding], [Mind Control], or [Domination] Skill at his disposal, so it would be very difficult to get a Summon under his Control.

Using Summoning Magic and controlling the Summons was still within his power--especially Elementals--but Beasts were completely different.

Beasts came from another world, and unlike Monsters who had flesh as their bodies and Mana Cores as hearts, or Elementals who were primarily composed of natural elemental attributes and had some kind of core that functioned as a stabilizer, the Beasts were fully composed of Mana--flesh, core, and all.

They might seem like physical bodies, but ultimately they were simply Mana given form.

Casting Magic to control them wouldn't work at all.

"I guess this is where the difference between Skills and Magic come into play once again..." Rey chuckled as he heard Ater's explanation.

"Precisely!"

With Skills that specifically allow control, as long as the action fell under the purview of the Tier, there really was no limit.

But, with Rey losing the perks of having Control Skills, he could only use Magic to achieve that end. And, as established already, controlling Beasts through Magic was quite impossible.

"If I'm to guess, the laws of this world just differ from the one they're coming from. As such, the kind of Control Magic that can be made using the Magic of this world would prove ineffective on them." Rey rubbed his chin as he analyzed the situation.

Ater shrugged and gave a casual smile.

"Those details are unnecessary, Master. The good news is that we have a nice alternative." Ater once again caused Rey's attention to fall on the shards of the Dyubbuk.

They were slowly closing in on one another, though Ater still had the core in his hands.

"How exactly do we go about it? It's an item for cursing and establishing binding vows, right?"

Rey asked this partly because he was curious about how he would control his new familiar, but also because he wanted to see if the Dyubbuk's function would enable him to somehow bring Alicia back.

Ater hadn't mentioned the possibility yet, but Rey didn't want to give up hope just yet.

"It's simple. We force the creature to enter a binding vow with you, so it will be enforced by this item. Once it is done, a curse will be inflicted on the two of you. Fortunately for you, Master, you are immune to curses, so you aren't bound to your agreement..."
