I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…

Logan and Serana watched as Kryst used Darkness Arrow, then added a bit of fire magic with Scorch's ability.

She shot it out towards the lava-filled section of the cave, causing a slight tremor in the lava before changing back to her original form.

"Well, you just need some practice, but you now at least have offensive abilities, Kryst." Logan got closer to the slime in girl form and placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Yes, I can fight now!" The girl showed an innocent expression, but Logan knew she would be far deadlier in the future.

"What will you do now, Logan?" Serana asked, wondering what she needed to do based on the boy's answer. She pondered whether to go with the boy now that her business was done in the cave or stay with Logan.

"Well, you did say there were bats around here we can try working with. Let's go with that for now. Kryst, how about you? Will you stay here?" Logan questioned his slime.

"No, I want to go back with Master. Job done here, my mushroom friends will do the rest!" Kryst said. Logan looked at the giants who kept infusing and absorbing power throughout the cave and decided to make one of them a Monarch, in case it was able to find or make more of its kind.

Logan then left after collecting only the largest of the crystals and those that disrupted the growth of new seeds.

At the end, it was enough to fill two rings, along with some of the water that would help his plants that needed its magical properties.

Logan soon got out of the cave and was guided to a group of vampire bats. Serana used her shadow skills to capture them; they had been hanging from the top of a particular section of the cave about four meters from the ground.

"Here, this one seems to be the largest. I think you only need one, right?" Serana asked Logan while handing him a large male of its species.

"Sure, I think this one will work." Logan reopened his wound and placed a drop on the dazed animal Serana had tranquilized with her power.

Within seconds, the bats became tame and a monarch with Logan's power. Seeing it was a creature of darkness, Logan got out a few crystals and began feeding it power. Just like with any other before it, the bat grew in size and evolved.

"I think its first evolution will be enough for it. Being in this cave will allow it to find mana nearby to slowly gain more levels," Logan explained his reason for not going further with the bat. Logan also wanted to save as many crystals as possible for his seven powerful primordial creatures that needed all the power they could get.

As soon as he was done with the bat, he released it back to its colony and saw, as he was leaving, that others like it began to change, growing and gaining newfound strength.

Logan smiled as he felt his power increasing with each new creature he added. The best part about monarchs is that they would have a mana tax on all its followers, while Logan would get a portion of mana from all his monarchs, meaning the more followers a monarch had, the more mana Logan accumulated.

Another reason for having monarchs was so their followers would protect their leaders. Logan was still linked strongly to each of his beasts, and if one of them died, he would feel the repercussions towards his soul.

He recalled the battle Scorch had to endure before and wondered what would have happened to his own soul if Scorch had died in that battle because he did not have help.

As soon as the three exited the cave, Logan was given another bat by one of Serana's minions, a girl who was a Shadow Revenant. Different from the bat before, this one was large and made to feed off vegetation. It looked far less deadly than the previous Vampire bat and even reminded Logan of Luna as it shared the face of his tamed ice fox, who was busy training with Riptide.

Logan did the same and saw how the bat grew in size before evolving it to its first form. He added the monarch's blessing before releasing it back into the wild, with his only order for both bats being to get stronger.

"Well… I called our Uber, hope you can wait a bit for them to arrive." Logan sat down on a large rock, laughing towards Serana, who did not get the joke.

"Who is Uber?" Serana questioned, sitting next to Logan.

"I meant I have told Lisa to send Orus so that we could return. I don't think we could fly for so long without getting tired. Uber is a taxi system in our world, like asking a carriage to pick you up personally." Logan smiled while thinking about having Marie make more movies that he could show his close ones about normal day happenings in his world. He did not want to forget his past on Earth, so he felt like watching just a normal day in school would be interesting to show Serana and Rubina.

"Will you be leaving your minions here?" Logan asked while looking at the girl who stood under the shadow of a tree, staring at him expressionless.

"Yeah, they would be far too dangerous to bring into a human settlement. They constantly need life force and blood, so being near this cave is the best for them." Serana asked the girl to come closer and patted her head.

The young girl looked like a doll, her age resembling someone around twelve years old. She wore a black gothic dress created by dark shadows. Her face was beautiful but eerie, as she rarely blinked, and her stare was like watching a doll that held no emotion or needs. Even as Serana patted her head, the doll stood still as if she did not feel what Serana was doing.

"Can it talk?" Logan asked while waving his hand slowly to see what the girl would do.

"Yes, simple words. She has yet to regain that part of her," Serana said while pulling the braids she had done to the girl up to make her look funny.

"Do you think the Monarch blessing would help you keep control of them?" Logan wondered, trying to keep himself from laughing.

"Maybe… Let's try it? You haven't used it on a person before, right?" Serana asked.@@novelbin@@
