"W-What is it now? Why are you looking at me so much?" Asked Ignatius. "Also, did that thing do anything to me? I don't even feel stronger like you said I would! I have yet to even hatch from this stupid egg…" He seemed frustrated nothing changed, but he had indeed changed a lot.

"Ignatius, the power of the System doesn't give you immediate power- or well, it was supposed to be like that, but it is supposed to give you the potential to endlessly develop with great effort!" Said Alice, cheering him up. And while she did that, I looked into his Status.

"Wow! He got it! And there are some interesting new changes! Did you do this, Alice?" I wondered. As I saw Ignatius Status, I couldn't help but grow more and more excited. Maybe I can't level up, but I can help him Level up and make him stronger, which in turn will also make me stronger because he's my spirit! He even got three Skills right off the bat, Eggshell, Dragon King's Son, and Baby Dragon Breath! However, as he doesn't have a glitched system, his MP and HP can go down… which means he can die.

Well, can't Spirits revive after they make a contract with someone? I remember my father saying that even if they "die" they can slowly regenerate back in the Soul Scape, but based in how strong they are, it might take an eternity or just a few days or weeks.

"I-It feels weird, before, I didn't had any Mana, most if not all my Mana depended on you, but now I seem to have my own internal amount of Mana… How odd!" Said Ignatius. "Well, not like I'll need it, you have endless mana to give to me anyways!"

"Don't get cocky, maybe one day I'll need your help elsewhere where I can give you Mana, so you'll have to train it." I said. "But yeah, you've got a nice status, you can't see it? Let me show it to you."

I used the [System Modification] Spell for the first time and used it to make the system window of Ignatius visible to him. He opened his eyes wide open when he saw everything, numbers and all… he wasn't good with numbers, apparently, nor with complex things such as Skills, or anything of the sort.

"H-Huh… I get it… I think? So I am strong! That's it, right? Nothing else? I guess that's it." He said with a prideful nod.

"Did you ever were taught about numbers?" Asked Alice.

"S-Seriously? You're an old dragon!" I said.

"Dragons don't need to learn about numbers!" Said Ignatius with embarrassment.

"I am going to teach you math." I sighed.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "I won't learn math!" Roared Ignatius. "You will! And stop shaking, I need to check you more… Now that you got the power to grow through earning EXP and Leveling Up, you'll stay outside most of the time as well."ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"Outside all the time?! But it's almost about time for my daily nap!" He said.

"You just woke up, lazy egg!" Said Alice, reprimanding Ignatius.

"Ugh…" Sighed Ignatius. "So what do I need to earn this "Exupé"?" Asked the dragon egg.

"Well, you need to just slay monsters. But your stats suck, so I think we'll need to babysit you a bit… or not, depending in how much Mana you can take at the time of fighting." I said. "For now, rest inside my Soul Scape, I'll check your status in more detail because you seem uninterested."

"Alright… Bring me some food though, I am starving!" He said, even though he didn't even need to eat as a spirit, he had already become spoiled.

Once more, I decided to look into Ignatius Status into more detail with Alice, the two of us began to analyze things, as it seems that there were various different features that were not within my own Status, meaning that they were brand new of Ignatius little system.

"First of all, he got a Rank? What's this for?" I wondered.

"Hmm… It seems to be a simplification to showcase the level of strength he is compared to monsters, and perhaps even adventurer ranks. Currently, and only by himself and without your Mana as help, he is merely comparable to F-Rank monsters! He'll have to beat little creature first, anything big might not be possible for him to defeat alone…" She said.

"Wait, can't he just earn EXP through the Party Method I've been using to leech EXP from others?" I wondered.

"Hm, it seems that it might not be possible, that's an advanced system feature that the System seeds lack currently, he'll have to kill each of his things, but I think you could aid him with your Mana at the very least, or to deal damage… But F-Rank monsters are so weak that you could easily one-shot them all… And that won't net any EXP for him, so be careful." Said Alice, as she informed me more about the mechanics of Ignatius, who now had a little system of his own.

"I see… He got three Skills, and they got levels up, unlike my starter Skills." I said. "Is that how the system was supposed to be?" I wondered.

"Indeed, there are certain Skills that can and cannot level up, but it seems all three of his skills can level up… He also has a Class! That surprised me a bit." Said Alice. Things were getting more and more interesting.
