An Extra’s POV

The world might be unfair, but the System isn't.

The way it operated followed set rules, and it adhered strictly to them. Breaking those rules, or causing deviations, were met with certain consequences.

Curses only existed due to the fairness of the world's principles.

As such, any Beast that an individual summoned had to be returned to said individual. It didn't matter their location or position.

They would still appear before the one who called them.

***********

The stage was set.

Rey stood before a Magic Circle, his eyes keenly focused on the egg that sat at its center. The object shone with purple light, but the black mist that danced around it seemed to suppress the power that lay dormant inside.

It almost felt like whatever was inside wanted to explode, but the cage that restricted it forced the creature to remain within.

"What kind of Beast should I expect?" Rey asked as he glanced at Ater, who was finally merging all the pieces of the Dyubbuk.

The Familiar grinned as he stared back at his Master.

"Didn't you want it to be a surprise?"

The moment Rey heard this, he itched his head. He had obviously let curiosity get the better of him, nearly ruining the moment.

"Yeah… you're right." Slight hues of pink appeared on his face, but they vanished almost instantly.

'I want this to be an amazing surprise! Like unpacking a surprise present for the first time!'

It was a kind of thrill that one rarely had, so he desired to savor the moment. Thankfully, his loyal Familiar understood that.

'Thank you, Ater!'

"Just a slight hint, though, Master…" Ater's words echoed as a buzzing sound began to fill the air.

"That Beast is very special. Its properties and compatibility with Master is incredible. I admit… if I was never summoned by you, it would make a perfect subordinate."

As those words sank into Rey's head, his heart began to race.

'Ater is giving it such high praise…' He suppressed all wariness and allowed slight doses of excitement seep through.

His eyes were wide open as he awaited the promised moment.

"I will now release my hold on the egg." Once Ater said this, the dancing blackness around the egg vanished, and the object began to tremble violently.
