I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

"This fog covers a vast area; I wonder how much it can be contained by my soul!"

Anno ran to the edge of the mist and went in to test it out.

As soon as she entered, Anno felt her vision begin to blur and she lost her sense of direction.

"That's amazing!"

Anno quickly withdrew from the mist and began chanting incantations as taught by Philomena.

A burst of orange light emanated from Anno's hand, enveloping the mist.

Before long, the orange light enveloped the mist, which was about fifty meters in diameter.

At this point, Anno felt that he had reached his limit.

If we want to continue expanding, Anno's soul needs to become even stronger.

To put it simply, it means you need to level up.

"This extensive fog is more than enough!"

Being shrouded in mist is like having Anno's soul imprinted on him.

Once Anno returns, he can summon this mist.

"Click-clack"

Just as Anno arrived with great joy, a strange noise suddenly came from behind him.

Without any hesitation, Anno rolled forward.

The next second, a skeletal claw appeared where Anno had been standing.

If you're even a little slower, Anno's head will be smashed open by the claws!

"More skeletons!"

Anno turned around and saw the tall skeleton behind him. He quickly ran into the mist he had marked and prepared to leave the underworld.

I don't know if it was just bad luck for Anno, but the skeleton that attacked Anno just now was a level 21, tier 4!

During his previous search for the mist in the underworld, Anno also encountered skeletons.

The levels range from Tier 1 to Tier 3.

If it's just the body entering the underworld, Anno isn't afraid.

However, he has only entered as a soul and has not yet figured out the methods of soul attack.

Although [Five Perspectives] can work, Anno is unable to summon creatures to the Underworld.

Therefore, when encountering skeletons, Anno has no choice but to run away.

The skeleton gazed into the depths of the mist, a hint of confusion in its eyes.

That delicious, lifelike dish has vanished.

It lingered nearby for a while.

Suddenly, as if sensing some kind of threat, it quickly dug a hole in the ground with its skeletal claws, trying to hide inside.

But it was a bit slow.

Before the pit was even finished being dug, a strange whistling sound came from inside.

Then a gust of wind swept by.

The soul fire that flickered in the skull's eyes vanished like a flame in the cold wind.

His entire skeleton was scattered all over the ground.

A fourth-tier skeleton died just like that, its soul even being shredded.

The fog around us was also partially blown away by the wind!

This is a sighing wind unique to the underworld!

Those whose souls are struck by the wind vanish in an instant when they are weak.

Even the most powerful creatures of the underworld dare not be blown by the sighing winds forever!

Anno was so frightened by the skeleton that he returned early and did not witness this scene.

"You're back so soon?"

Philomena, who was sitting on the rock enjoying the breeze, was somewhat surprised to see Anno open his eyes.

Anno stood up and told Philomena about his experience of being attacked by skeletons in the underworld, then asked, "Is there any way to give my soul the ability to attack?"

Philomena gave Anno a strange look and said, "Yes, you can choose to die, then your soul will go to the underworld, and then you can attack!"

Anno immediately gave the other person a "you're kidding me" look.

Philomena said dismissively, "Although a summoner's soul can go to the underworld, for you, having only a soul is incomplete."

At this moment, neither your soul nor your body is capable of fighting!

Moreover, the summoner's fighting style is mainly reflected in the summoned creatures!

Why are you learning about soul attack methods?

If you want to kill a skeleton, why don't you just go to the underworld in your physical body?

However, I advise you not to do that. In the underworld, the life force within you will be like a brightly shining light bulb to evil spirits!

Anno stared at Philomena for a while, feeling that she was hiding something.

Perhaps she didn't believe in herself and was unwilling to teach herself the skills her soul could use.

After all, once the soul possesses offensive capabilities, it will have the means to threaten Philomena's safety when he enters the God's Space.

In the present world, if Anno wanted to take action, Philomena could return to the God Space at any time.

"How about we try out this skill first!"

Anno changed the subject and began using [Mist Summoning]!

After consuming two thousand points of magic power, a cloud of eerie mist appeared in the Forbidden Forest, centered on Anno.

As the one who summoned it, Anno's vision was not obstructed in any way.

But according to Philomena, the fog in the underworld is peculiar.

Once the target enters, it will not only lose its way, but its perception skills will also be weakened.

However, according to Anno's observation, the mist should also have a corrosive effect on the creatures enveloping it.

The flowers, grasses, and trees within the area withered and died at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then turned to ashes.

A minute later, the mist returned to the underworld.

If Anno wishes, he can continue to expend magic to maintain the mist.

The mana consumption rate is 2000 points per minute.

Fog of war is very useful in small-scale operations.

After learning a skill, Anno immediately began to study the [Shadow Summoning] skill.

Anno's understanding of the fourth-tier skill [Shadow Summoning] is higher than that of the third-tier skill [Fusion].

Therefore, Anno plans to learn [Shadow Summoning] first, and then learn [Fusion].

"【Shadow Summoning】requires communicating with your own shadow and giving it 'life'! You must find a connection with your shadow and make it work for you!"

Remember, your shadow is also you.

If your desire is boundless, it can sense it and connect with you!

As Anno stared at his shadow in the moonlight, Philomena offered guidance from the side.

Anno had actually successfully established a connection with his own shadow.

That's why he's learning [Shadow Summoning] now.

However, last time, Anno did not reach an agreement with his shadow.

In his only confrontation with his shadow, Anno discovers that his shadow is extremely evil.

It seems to be the evil side of Anno.

Tyranny, greed, bloodlust, evil...

For example, it makes no attempt to conceal its murderous intent towards Philomena.

The moment Anno established a connection with the shadow, he sensed that it was constantly plotting to kill Philomena and seize her divine status!

This time, Anno also successfully established a connection with the Shadow.

Although the shadow on the ground remained motionless.

But Anno could feel that the shadow was staring back at him.

It was a very strange feeling.

The thoughts of both parties can be conveyed to each other instantly.

In a short period of time, Anno had a lot of communication with Shadow.

Philomena was admiring the moon when she turned around and suddenly noticed that Anno was acting strangely.

Anno was trembling violently, with veins bulging on his neck and beads of sweat on his forehead.

"What happened?"

Philomena looked somewhat serious as she jumped off the rock and quickly walked to Anno's side.

"Anno, wake up!"

Philomena shook Anno's body, trying to force him out of his meditative state.

"Huff~!"

Anno, whose shoulders had been shaken, suddenly looked up, his eyes bloodshot, his face pale, and he was breathing heavily.

It was as if I had just woken up from a nightmare.

"What happened?"

Philomena was somewhat puzzled.

The most difficult part of cultivating [Shadow Summoning] is communicating with the shadow.

Once a connection is successfully established, it is easy to summon a shadow.

Furthermore, shadows are also considered summoned creatures, and are primarily summoned by the summoner.

Anno's current situation would never have occurred.

"No...it's nothing!"

Anno's eyes darted away.

He stood up and calmed himself down.

Anno then glanced down at her shadow, then looked up at the bright moon, murmuring, "So this is what I've always thought!"

Philomena looked at Anno with a puzzled expression.

On the ground, Anno's shadow slowly moved towards Philomena.

But soon, it seemed to realize that it could not harm Philomena now, and slowly returned to normal.
