It’d been five days since I was cooped up in this cave.
It was extremely lonely, to say the least. I did summon my minions but they weren’t one to talk. I just nurtured their abilities and get to know each one of them so I knew which one to use if a problem ever arose.
I didn’t have enough information regarding summoned creatures in the first place. Surprisingly, each one of them had different talents.
The leader man who I named Romano was proficient at leading the summoned creatures. I saw from before how he managed to guide them into cutting the deer perfectly. When I summoned him again, I asked him to lead them into doing a few things like having them standing in a line or moving around.
It worked. Romano was a natural-born leader.
The next summoned creature was Freddo. He was the biggest out of all of them. He could very well be the same size as me, except for the fact that he was 6’5. Something about him felt familiar too. Like a colleague of mine back in my world.
My colleague was this dude who rarely spoke. I always ate with him during lunch because I was someone who loved to savor the food in silence. I didn’t know whether he liked me or not. He had this silent yet overpowering aura, causing everyone at work to avoid him. He also had this serious face on.
I was afraid of him for the first time. I was an awkward person in nature and I usually avoided someone like him. However, the first time that I was forced to eat with him during a break, it was somewhat comforting. He didn’t care too.
Little by little, we established this silent relationship where none of us ever talked with each other but we were still close. I wondered how he was doing right now.
Freddo was exactly like him. I guessed it had to do with the fact that summoned creatures sometimes copied something that their owner was comfortable with. I was used to staring at human person thus my minions were each shaped like one.
Freddo was more interested in heavy labor or Earth Element.
When I was practicing perfecting my spells so it would be natural for me to cast them, I was fiddling around with Earth Element. I’d let my summoned creatures roamed around the cave and Freddo approached me. It was the first time that he was openly interested in something.
“You want to learn Earth Element with me?” I offered him. I was making different shapes using the Stone Wall spell. I even got a notification that Stone Wall had been upgraded into Stoneweaver. It was the same concept as Metal Bending.
Freddo nodded at me and I taught him everything that I could regarding Earth Element. Even though I’d only unlocked one spell, it was a strong type of spell.
He caught on to everything that I said very well. In the end, as I practiced all my other spells, he was also there to practice his.
The third summoned creature was yet another guy. Well, at least I guessed that he was. He had a lot of feminine features to him. His hair was also somewhat curly. I named him Hazel.
He was more interested in dueling with me. I didn’t know how he had the knowledge of fighting but he was extremely excited every time I summoned him. He would immediately make a sword made out of plants in his hand even before he completed his transformation.
It was nice to see. I used him to hone my own fighting capability.
But the more we dueled, the more I realized the reason why Kannech was labeled as a Mage Support. If he were to be a character in a MOBA game, he would definitely take on the role of support that dealt damage.
There were usually three types of support in games. The healing one, the one with mainly crowd control abilities, and the one that dealt damage. The last one could even take the role of a mage in the team due to their kit but they mostly fell off during the late game.
Kannech was a guy that was more proficient in dealing damage at the back while the rest of his underlings fought in front. With his countless damaging and strengthening spells, it was appropriate to call him a king.
I was unfortunately inferior when it came to frontal combat but when using my offensive spells on Hazel, I could easily beat the guy. Plus, I gained a lot of new spells when we fought one on one. My brain would try to find a way to defend myself and that was when new spells would arrive.
My female summoned creatures were both different than each other. The one with the long hair was named Valencia and the one with shoulder-length hair was Vienna.
Valencia was similar to me. She was more interested in magic. So, I made her my disciple somewhat. My summoned creatures were easy to teach. They adapted really well and listened to everything I said. Well, it was somewhat scary how much their loyalty to me was.
I didn’t want to think about what would happen if I said that I wanted them to die. They’d probably do it in a heartbeat.
Vienna was more reserved. She preferred labor jobs or was curious about new things. When I wanted to do something with the fur I got, she offered to make it into a coat for me. When I was playing around with the Metal Element and created something that could only be found in my world, she was right near me, tilting her head in a cute manner.
I explained everything to her. I even explained how that mini refrigerator worked since she kept fiddling with them when I wasn’t looking. I could see her being interested in scientific research, honestly.
In the end, I got myself a leader, a worker, a battle maniac, a future mage, and a thinker. They were as perfect as they could be. Mocha was the sloth.
He never left my shoulder unless it was time to eat. Others didn’t eat since they didn’t even have an actual mouth. They didn’t even have eyes. Somehow, Mocha was more structured than them. He looked like a real hamster to me. Even his fur felt real.
I was done with another duel with Hazel when I examined my status again.
So far, I’d managed to open a few more elements such as Air, Electricity, Storm, Shadow, and Gravity Element. My screen became better to look at.

I’d only realized that two elements were corrupted when I thoroughly checked them. No matter how much I tried to find the reason why this was happening, it ended up futile. The novel didn’t give me any details regarding that. I also didn’t know what elements those were.
My investigation was forced to stop.
Nevertheless, I was completely satisfied with the result. I was also satisfied with another ability.
Illusion.
I’d been working laboriously in order to work on that ability. Kannech also helped me to control them since I could read the details in the novel. I’d made myself a clone before and worked on them to perfection. I was going to use this one sooner or later.
With a sigh, I stood up before I used my Illusion spell. Illusion consisted of a few things. The ability allowed the caster to alter their body and looks in order to distort people’s perception. However, the caster could also create a clone of themselves and used illusion spells on them too.
I created mine with Nature Element within them. This was one of the rules to create a clone after all. A spell and a continuous amount of mana. It was simple.
In front of me was another version of Kannech. He was naked but I made sure he didn’t have the thing down there. I wasn’t comfortable looking at another guy’s…thing. Well, I saw it a few times but that was a story for another day.
