23 Clown of Envy (2/2)

”Who the hell are you?” I back away from the man, that seems altogether to suspicious, even though I had just summoned him.

”I'm Envy, you summoned me,” he replied steady, raising his arms behind his head and leaning backward slightly. Like everything was just fine and dandy.

”Witch of Blood, is what he said true?” I ask.

”Indeed, this is the Clown of Envy,” she replied.

”Why does he look different from what I remember?” I ask quickly, stepping backward the clown. Reaching a hand out, I place it on his chest looking for a pulse. But there is no heartbeat, it's silent. This was the first time I'd summoned a humanoid monster.

”One Moment,” she said.

He didn't move away at my hand if anything the grin on his face got wider. His arm moved suddenly, but I was quicker.

Catching his hand, I quickly twist it behind his back and kick out his knee. Sending him cantering forward towards the ground.

”Owiee, Mistress I just wanted to hug you; you look so sexy with that outfit on!” He chuckled faking pain, as he twisted his head towards me, giving me a leering look. Great, I summoned a pervert!

”I found the answer to your question, it would appear that he's upgraded along with your level! It seems that your summoning skill levels up for every five levels that you achieve for your normal stats,” she says with a slight sound of surprise.

”So you're saying because I leveled up this guy also leveled up?” I ask.

”In a way, he's still an advanced rank monster, but he's now on his way to evolving, for instance, if I was to evolve I would need 25 of your skill points, for your summoning skill it would appear that to have ranked up, you basically just need to keep increasing your level. Yet, you can also increase certain monster by giving them skill points. His level up is just a lucky,” she explained.

”Why didn't you mention earlier that I could upgrade you with skill points?” It appears that there is a certain level of free will with personal assistants.

”I didn't think it was prudent information, and that you shouldn't waste skill point on me,” her voice fell a little bit.

What a non-greedy little creature this one was.

”Next time tell me about this stuff okay? I'll level you up when I get more skill points too,” I say nonchalantly releasing my hold on Envy.

He pops right up, not even seeming phased by my rough handling of him. If anything, I think he was looking at me with hungry eyes. A slight flush was across his face, and I think I spotted a boner.

Ew.

Wrinkling my nose, I turn away from him.

”Mistress, who are we going to kill?” His masculine voice drifted to my ear, there was a twinge of insanity mixed in there as well.

”The damned Hag,” I mutter setting off in a direction, I didn't have time to waste.

”Sounds fun! Let me kill a lot of things okay?” He chattered walking next to me, reaching a hand out his tries to pull me towards him. Swinging my hand down, I hit him in the crotch.

He crumples to the ground, holding his crotch in a hand. A creepy grin was on his, his eyes gave off an almost satisfied expression.

”Misstress...” He panted from the ground, I ducked my head and kept walking, what the actual hell... had I summoned.

She better be right that he was the next strongest if not, then I would have to give her a stern talking to.
