CH.202 Ergency Call
I woke up in the morning feeling great. No excessive hunger, or sluggishness from yesterday anywhere. The problems I had yesterday didn’t affect that much, other than having to snack more often, but still, it's good to know that everything is fine.
The only strange part was when I woke up. I actually had naturally woken up before Ria had, so I even managed to exchange a few words with her, as she ca to wake Ria up.
… Should I offer the maids level ups? No, really. They deserve it. They are the hardest working people I know. If they don’t deserve it, who does? Not , at least. Well, Angelina does know about level ups now, so maybe she will give permission. I might ask her today.
But anyway, I left Ria to change her clothes and went to the factory. Let’s go see what is happening there.
“Mr. Brian, could you head to the village as soon as possible?” Mia asked, when I t up with her and Laura in the factory.
“... sure, but why? Our normal blood delivery day is tomorrow.”
“It’s my Mistress. She is under quite the major level up sickness, caused by her evolution.”
“... excuse , but did you just say evolution?”
“Yes, I did. Mistress reached level 70 yesterday evening, and her body began an evolution. I’d ask that you co over and look over her until her evolution has fully finished, and she has cleared her level up sickness.”
“... alright. I’ll hurry over then.” I said. “Laura, anything critical I need to know, or can I just get going?”
“No, you should be good to go.” Laura answered, so I jumped out of the factory, so I could catch Ria, before she had ti to leave for breakfast.
“Ria, change of plans. We have to go to the village.” I told her, catching her just as she was leaving the room.
“Eh? Alright. But why?” Ria got on board as soon as I told her that. Probably because of my tone of voice.
“Lua, well her system support, contacted , telling that Lua is quite sick because of an evolution. She asked us to head over, so we could help her get over it.” I explained. “Go tell so of the maids we are leaving, possibly for a day or two. Then we’ll quickly drop by Agatha’s house and pick her up as well. I’ll get dressed, so you can go now. Co back as soon as you can.”
“Yes.” Ria answered, rushing off.
Ria returned just as I was ready to go, with one of the maids on her heels, the sa one that had woken her up earlier. She asked about the situation, so I just quickly explained that I’d be going to the dhampir village because of a dical ergency. I added that I might not co back today. When I was sick, I was out for two days, so I want to have at least that much ti secured. The maid simply accepted the information and said she would relay it to the lord and others.
With that done, Ria and I rushed outside. I didn’t hesitate a mont and called out B.E.S. Big Core.

“Master, what may I ..?”
“Keep her cool.” I told my summon, before she had ti to fully ask.
“y-Yes.” She answered and got to work.
Will she be enough? Maybe I should summon a second one.
I turned my terminal into a duel disk. Yes I can do what while I have a card on it. The card will move from the one slot on the terminal to the middlemost spot on the duel disk. I can also activate my duel disk in three states.
First is one that looks like a deactivated GX duel disk. It will give three monster slots I can use, but I never use it in that form.
The second is fully active GX duel disk. And that ans five slots for monsters, five for spells and traps, and one for a field spell.
Then the third is my Hieroglyph Lithograph improved version, which gets two ‘extra monster zones’. So a total of seven monsters, five spell/traps and one field spell can be active on it at the sa ti.

I summoned another water attribute monster, and this ti one that can increase life points, aka heal. With the two monsters now here, I was finally able to relax, feeling like everything will work out.
“Great Summoner, is Miss Lucia fine?”
“I hope so. Did Ria tell you what she is going through?” I answered Rosemary. She had arrived in the town hall, while I was summoning monsters to help Lua.
“Yes. I did hear. To think she would evolve.” Rosemary began. “I just can’t think what we would have done if you had not co. She would have been trapped in that room, suffering with no help.”
“... yeah. I’d rather not consider that. Thankfully she could contact .”
“May I ask how she did that? If you don’t mind.”
“We have our ways. That’s all I’ll say. It isn’t sothing anyone but and Lua can do, so there is no reason for to share more than that.”
“I see. That is too bad. We could have had a way of contacting Agatha.”
“Yeah. Sorry. Maybe you can learn a blood magic spell that makes bat familiars, like Cain did. You could have them deliver letters, probably.”
Since I hadn’t eaten breakfast yet, I cooked myself so egg. Monster Egg.

“Ria, take these two and hold the True Blood Magic lesson for the villagers, as Lua can’t do that.” I said, as I handed her two Vampire cards. Vampire Grimson and Vampire Scarlet Scourge.

It has been just over two hours since we got here, and I had traded the two monsters taking care of Lua. Now the two taking care of her were Maiden of the Aqua and Spirit of the Breeze.

“I can, but are you sure that is important at the mont?” Ria asked.
“It isn’t, but there is nothing else we can do for Lua at this ti. We just have to make sure her temperature stays down and let her keep resting.” I said, before adding. “And I’m sure Lua would want the others to keep practicing, even if she can’t teach them.”
“Yes. Then I shall. I’ll be borrowing these two for the lesson.”
“No. Not just for the lesson.” I said. “I’m giving those two to you.”
“... are you sure? I already have four monsters.”
“Take good care of them.”
“Thank you, Brian.”
Now, I know there is one big question you want to ask. Why am I not using the Pyro Clock of Destiny? I actually asked that from Laura myself.

Well, I can’t. … I can, but I shouldn’t. While it can counter level up sickness, evolution is slightly different. Her body is doing more than just adjusting to its new power. It is changing on a fundantal level. And skipping that could have dire consequences, so we have no choice but to wait. But I don’t mind. Lua took care of when I was sick, so I’ll do the sa for her. Even if I use my monsters as a subsidiary, instead of doing it directly.
Well, it counts. I think.
