Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!

FLUOOOSH!

Alberta utilized her Spirit Hammer and her flames, alongside several other skills to enchant the Gluttony Spear temporarily to a greater level of power. I was amazed by her powers, something I couldn't imitate at all due to the uniqueness of her Skills and her Spirit.

Recalling her Stats, I quickly checked my Grimoire where I had written them alongside the Status of everyone else. These were the simple status made by the Appraisal Crystal:

Seeing this, it is quite obvious she got a ton of Skills that she could be using. But it was easy to guess once she began chanting them out loud while imbuing enchantment runes through her hammer.

"[Quick Repair]!"

CLANK!

"[Reinforce]!"

CLANK!

"[Sharpen]!"

CLANK!

FLUOOOSH!

The Gluttony Spear suddenly began overflowing with a fiery aura, as she gave it the last enchantment, runes that emerged from her hammer, covering the spear's handle and its blade.

"[Rune Creation]: [Attack Runes]!"

FLAAASH!

Ding!

[The [Accursed Abyssal Devourer Spear: Gluttony (Mythic-Grade)] has been temporarily enhanced!]

"Here!"

Alberta gave me back my spear, everyone's else weapons were enchanted by her hammer, even Eric's bow received the same powerful benefits.

"T-This is amazing, you've made our weapons stronger so easily!" Chris said.

"So this is the true power of Dwarves…" Elfriedden said in shock, glancing at his needle.

Not only was she able to use this on weapon or armor… Even Tool or Weapon-type Spirits received the enchantments as if they counted as real weapons. This was the true power of a Runic Blacksmith.

"Phew…" Alberta cleansed her sweat coming from her forehead, her iridescent orange and red hair shining brightly below her portable furnace. "I hope this can help you guys become stronger. I've also used it on this."

She showed a small, red-colored wand, it was a simple Blazing Wand, a beginner wand for starting magicians. She had bought it for herself, probably to be able to enchant her own weapon's strength and therefore have stronger fire magic. Chris already covers the fire element anyways, but she might develop Earth magic in the future as well, or the combination of Fire and Earth, Volcanic Magic.

"Amazing… Even my bow!" Eric said. "Alberta you're awesome!"

"My sword had a few cracks for a while now but they're all gone!" Erika was as happy.

"My staff was getting rusty for some reason so this really helps too, it is clean, and even shiny!" Chris said.

"Great job! I think my magic could be way stronger like this." Elizabeth said.

Before everyone's praises, Alberta got overly embarrassed, covering her face. Perhaps she had never received this much praise before. Her stuttering, her nervous nature, and her lack of self confidence all scream to me that she was mistreated back in her family.

Whatever she went through back in her home, it was something that didn't allowed her to grow nor develop her mind and confidence properly. She has so many talents yet she doesn't seem to be able to think they were useful at all… In our first meeting, she wasn't even sure we would recruit her.

"T-Thank you… N-Nobody has ever… t-told me that before…" Alberta said, she was about to cry, even.

"A-Alberta, are you okay?" Eric wondered.

"Y-Yeah… I just… I am happy to be… p-part of this party…" Alberta smiled sweetly.

Everyone skipped a beat at her smile, she was perhaps the cutest member of our party. Even the obviously serous Elfriedden couldn't resist her cuteness.

"Ahem! W-Well, you should be more aware of your strengths. Only weaklings let others make them believe they're useless. My whole life I was told I was a useless person, that I had no good talent, and that my spirit was incapable of anything…" Elfriedden smiled. "However, I showed them time and time again they were wrong. You, Alberta, must do the same. Whoever made you think you were not good enough… Show them they're wrong, with effort, and accomplishments."

"Elfriedden…" Alberta felt surprised the angry elf said such words.

"Yeah, he's right. I also went through something similar back then, I always felt useless and a weakling… But over time, with effort, I was able to find out my talents. Thanks to my friends in here too." Eric said. "You don't need to do this alone anymore."

"Eric…" Alberta was being given so much advice that I felt the necessity to hurry things up, we still had two more floors to complete.

"Everyone, we should keep going, if you want to complete things in time record, we must move forward. Alberta, completing this dungeon will be your first great accomplishment. Let's do it together." I said, trying to both hurry them up and also inspire Alberta.

"Y-Yeah, leader! Let's do it!" She quickly stood up, all ready to go.

"Then let us go."

Like that, we swiftly made our way to the stairs leading underground. In mere seconds, we found ourselves on the third floor, the floor right before the last floor, Floor 4, where the Boss Monster would be waiting for us.

"Oh, there's glowing moss growing around the cave, and giant crystals! What are those?" Wondered Erika, as we wandered in the starting point of the Floor 3. Unlike 1 and 2, there were no monsters waiting for us.

"Those are Mana Crystals; they grow as a concentration of crystalized Mana." Said Elfriedden. "Mostly unique to Dungeons and Mountains."
