"Lock her up and keep watch on her. Tell me when she wakes up?" An order rang through the corridors of the mansion as Ray's mother looked at their new prisoner.

It had been a few minutes since Sirius came back and the mood had been down ever since. For what the news he brand was nothing good.

On his way back, Sirius observed various worrying signs. For starters, the animal activity in the woods had decreased by a good margin while the trees seemed to grow thicker.

Also, the prisoner he caught healed very fast and if not for his superior physical traits, he was sure that the prisoner would have long escaped from his grip.

Using the help from shadows around him, Sirius hurried back to the mansion. Upon reaching the stronghold, he met Ray's mother and informed her of everything.

This alerted her and prompted her to gather everyone and make plans for further actions.

As for the prisoner, when they took of the masks; they realized that it wasn't some hideous animal but a beautiful woman. Though, she wasn't human but an elf.

Being an elf further enhanced her beauty and charm as Ray's mother quickly understood one thing. Their enemies weren't some mindless beasts but the elven race that not only had unique magical powers related to nature but were also very intelligent and adept in warfare.

As she ordered the elven woman to be locked up in a makeshift cell, she prohibited anyone from coming near her. After all, who knew what trump cards she had under her belt and worse, what if she was adept in enchanting people.

If that happened, Ray's mother was sure to have a lot of trouble on her plate.

As for the one to look over her, Kashish complied and with her Aella was sent to look after.

"Sirius, what else do you bring to report?" Asked Ray's mother as she wiped the sweet off her forehead. The things were turning for the worse and they had to deal with it in the same way.

If their enemies were aggressive and wanted to kill them, they would retaliate with the same, if not much more fierceness. However, if the enemies advocated peace and wanted to make a relationship of peace and harmony, Ray's mother wouldn't mind cooperating with them.

After all, no one liked losses and deaths on their side and Ray's mother was sure that they would achieve more by cooperating rather than by fighting against them.

"The woods are clear. Just the area around the pagodas are left," Stated Sirius as he added, "So I was going go get a look at that place after dropping off the assailant,"

"Granted," Approved Ray's mother as she understood that Sirius was simply asking for her permission to continue his mission.

Given the nod, Sirius turned around and dissolved himself in the shadows as he made way out of the mansion and into the woods. The moonlight embraced his figure as he felt his strength increasing. Looking up the sky, he saw the moon in it's full glory. The silvery dull light emitted from the moon as it provided Sirius with a sense of warmth and belonging.

In the moonlight, Sirius truly felt himself, "Awoooooo," He howled in the sky as he planted his feet on the ground and took a feral stance. He stood on his fours and looked forward with ferocity. His muscles tensed as he felt his heart beat loudly in excitement.

Tensing his legs even further, Sirius kicked off the ground as he jumped forward in haste. His figure turned into a blur as he took the form of a wolf running forward at full speed while on his fours.

Within moments, Sirius was hundreds of meters away from his starting position. He ventured in the woods like a predator as he aimed for the new development several kilometers away.

The woods around the mansion were endless and provided the best cover for Sirius and this was exactly what he aimed for. To be as fast as he could while having the support of natural cover from the trees around him.

While Sirius went on with his mission, the mansion saw some unprecedented chances. For starters, Ray woke up.

He opened his eyes several moments after Sirius left and right now, he was making sure of his physical condition. He sat in a meditating position all naked. His clothes were burned to ashes while small laceration formed all over his skin as they healed up at the speed visible to naked eye.

This was a strange occurrence that happened when he woke up. Unable to control his newly elevated strength, the elements in his body went awry for a second but Ray quickly controlled them. Though, not before the damage was done.

The temporal fire had burned his clothes to rags while the Void element had laced his skin with multiple cuts that grew along the space they found.

Thankfully he controlled it all or the Void cuts might have ate a good amount of his skin.

"Hmm… the Void element is much like the gluttony of the sins I heard of. It has the tendency to eat apart space itself," He thought as he tried incorporate the sense into his battle style. He was sure that he could his powers more adeptly and that he was much stronger than before.

Not just that, but his blood also seemed to be different. He looked at the drops of blood over his skin as they seemed to have changed a lot. The blood was thicker and more shinier than before. Not just that, but he found out that he bled even less.

Opening his system status page, he found that it had changed greatly,

[System Status],

[Stats:-

Realm:- Magical Realm

Strength:- 134

Agility:- 128

Perception:- 103

Magic:- 299

Bloodline:- 69]

Looking at them, Ray felt strange as most attributes seemed to be missing and not just that, he was sure that he unlocked a couple more attributes as well.

Therefore, he consulted the system consciousness itself, "Aurora, care to explain the change?" He asked.

"Oh, long time since you saw your system page. Well, the attributes turned out to be a lot. So I simplified them into five main attributes. All the elemental powers you gain from your bloodline are in your bloodline attribute. It's same for magic as mana had been incorporated into that as well. Rest you can imagine. Strength means all the physical abilities to strength are in there so I didn't beach them up. It's same for agility and perception," Aurora answered as she explained everything in a simpler way.

Ray was smart enough to understand what she meant and nodded. Simply, his attributes were still there and stronger than ever, it's just that Aurora categorized them into their main attributes and compressed the attributes.

Therefore, if before he had twenty attributes related to strength, he had the same right now. Just that they were all in the strength attribute now and if he needed to look at them all, he simply had to look at the branches of strength attribute.

Ray looked further and realized that the system ha simplified a lot and helped him sort things out by a greater margin. He thanked Aurora for that and looked deeper into a new tab that had opened up.

[Proficiency]

[Description:- Relates to all the proficiencies that the host has. Whether be proficiency sword skills or proficiency in magical skills. They all are sorted out in this tab. Also, the host could level up proficiency by providing mana stones and spirit crystals. This can also be used to unlock other proficiencies]

Ray's eyes lightened up at that prospect as he realized the value of this new tab. He could always hunt more beasts to acquire more crystals and mana stones. Therefore, he could get stronger as long as he killed beasts.

Not just this, but Ray realize that the same applied to skills section as he could now buy new skills and upgrade his existing skills as well. Also, the shop also offered a lot of new things.

The prospect made him jitter with excitement as he couldn't wait to kill more beasts and strengthen himself beyond limits. However, before that; he would have to deal with the problems at hand.

His keen perception had allowed him to sense the new developments around the mansion and it didn't take an expert to notice that everything and everyone was in state of alert.

He left his body conditions as they were and determined to look deeper on a later date. Right now, he had to stand up as a leader and stand tall in the face of battle and lead with example.
