Inside the prairie grassland covered with green grass and flowers, a teenage boy stands still while closing his eyes. Suddenly, the teenager opened his eyes and raised his hand. A wind blade shot from his hand.

The wind blade keeps going until a few meters away before dissipating. Looking at the wind blade, the teenage boy smiled happily. This teenager is none other than Axel Pomel, who got saved by elemental spirit, aka the Fairies.

"Yes, finally, I managed to do it." exclaimed Axel.

"Wow... He managed to do it."

"Yup, he did it."

"But, he is still weak."

"It's not even 10% of my power."

The other nearby fairies keep chatting themself while berating Axel. Axel, who heard this, could only sigh before sitting on the ground.

"I can't believe I have the power of this." muttered Axel.

He begins to remember his conversation with the queen a few days ago. Apparently, he is a special person that could hear and make contracts with the elemental spirit. According to the elemental spirit, only a good-hearted person could see them.

As for the one that could make a contract with them is as rare as finding a unicorn. Because of this, it's been a long time since someone is qualified to have a contract with them.

Through the contract, he could borrow their elemental power. However, Axel also needs to use his own mana to borrow this elemental power. He also requires a lot of practice to use their elemental power successfully.

Some of the contracts are very strict with a lot of requirements. Some of them are very loose with less complicated requirements. Axel found that the higher the grade of elemental spirit, the higher and complex its condition.

He also discovered that these spirits have their own specialty. For example, the spirit that he is currently contracted to is named Elsa. She is a wind spirit that has specialties in wind blades. Among the other lower-grade wind spirits, she has the best expertise in wind blades.

However, Axel could only utilize not even 10% of her power. It is because the requirement to use her power also consumes his own mana. This mana consumption will lessen as he keeps using her power to get more used to it.

This is the reason why he keeps practicing until his mana is exhausted. According to the queen, If he becomes more used to the elemental spirit power, he could cast the spirit power with only a little bit of mana.

The downside is he also needs to maintain the connection of the contracted spirits with his own mana. It is possible to connect two or more spirits, but it will consume more mana and stamina along the time. For now, he could only connect one spirit for a dozen minutes.

As he gets used to the spirit power, this mana consumption to connect them also gets smaller. Besides that, he also found that there is a limit to the spirit he could get a contract. For now, he could only contract three first-grade elemental spirits.

His body would explode by over contracting with many spirits at once, especially the high-grade one. Fortunately, this limit could be expanded as long as his body gets used to the elemental spirit power.

Basically, using elemental spirit power is a very complex and arduous path. But, the reward is also worth it. According to the Queen spirit story, few master elemental spirits before him could even create disaster just by willed it.

This kind of power is almost the same as a seventh-grade combatant, the realm of legend where everyone could only dream and not reach it.

Because of this, Axel works together with these spirits even though all these spirits are very childish and like to mock him. He just feels that he is dealing with a bunch of kids. Even though all of them are many times older than him.

In the middle of his resting, "Axel, give me more candy." said the spirit that is fluttering nearby him

"Ehh.. Already??" asked Axel.

"Of course, you keep using my power. So, I am quite hungry now." said the small wind spirit.

"Haa.. Alright, here the candies." said Axel as he took a bunch of candies from his space storage.

Looking at the candies, the small wind spirit immediately snatched them from Axel's hand. All the candies on Axel's hand immediately went away in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, Axel gets surprised even after looking at it many times.

"Ehh.. I also want candies."

"Me too.. Me too…"

"No, give me."

The other nearby fairies begin clamoring around Axel and urge him to give them candies. However, he still remembers the Queen's warning about giving them something.

Spirit is a pure being, and giving them something means having a contract with them even if they didn't intend to. If Axel gives them something, they will be forced to contract with Axel and lead him to explode into pieces from having too many contracts at once.

The reason Axel gives the first wind spirit candies is that she is contracted with Axel already. She also demands sweet things once in a while, as the contract said.

Sometimes when he contracts with spirits, they will demand something for the contract. It could be food, raw materials, or even gold. The higher the elemental spirit grade, the more demand they usually want.

One time, Axel asked the requirement for contracting with the Queen spirit. The queen said one of them is enormous gold, enough to supply the whole Heart Kingdom for one year.

Moreover, that is only for one of the Queen's abilities as for the others. He didn't even qualify to know about it.

"Sorry, everyone.. I don't have much left of the candies." said Axel, making excuses to others spirits.

"Boohoo… Stingy Axel."

"Yeah.. Stingy."

"Weak and stingy."

"Weak, stingy, and ugly."

Suddenly, a strong wind comes to Axel's face along with the land movement, making him fall to the ground. Then, a block of ice appears in the air hitting his head.

Looking at Axel's miserable condition, "Hahahaha..." laugh the nearby spirits.

Hearing all the nearby chattering spirit, Axel could only roll his eyes. Contracting with the spirit also means being friends with them. So, Axel could only be patient with them.

After Axel rested for a few hours, he continued his training. Right now, he recognizes the horror of the Endless Battlefield. Although it is dangerous, he also marvels at such an environment.

He feels that if he needs to explore this dimension more, he needs to become stronger. Right now, Axel is inside one of the pocket dimensions called the Elemental world.

By such coincidence, he arrives near one of the elemental world's entrances and is saved by Elsa. The elemental world is connected with many worlds or dimensions. But, they have their own law.

Another being beside the spirit could only enter and exit one entrance. So, if Axel wants to go back to Firuman, he needs to go back to the Endless Battlefield dimension before going through the exit.

Normally, there is also a limit to how long another being besides spirit stays inside the elemental world.

However, Axel is a contractor after such a long time. So, the Queen exempted Axel with this restriction and allowed him to stay as long as he wanted, just for this time.

The Queen spirit considers it as a gift to him. Using this opportunity, he begins to train the new power that he gets from the elemental spirits.

In the meantime, Angus and Jayna finally get out of the beast's territory. Now, they arrive at the vast desert. Above their heads, they could see three bright hot suns. Looking at the weather, they know that they have already come into another zone.

The Endless Battlefield dimension is divided into many zones with varieties of weather. Some of them are forests with cloudy weather like the monster and beast territory.

Some are hot vast deserts like this. There are also mountain ranges with hail storms or land with non-stop rain. Because of this, many people often die not only from the monster or beast but also from the harsh weather.

Now, Angus is feeling exhausted because of the hot temperature in the air. Unlike Jayna, who is now immune to hot temperature and fire. Angus still needs to keep fighting against the hot temperature with his own body.

The hot desert is scorching and dry. Even with the fire resistance which he got from opening the Gate of Life, Angus could still feel the nearby scorching temperature. Looking at Jayna, who was completely fine, Angus couldn't help but envy her.

Feeling stared at by Angus, Jayna looks back at Angus, "Emm… Angus, are you okay? Do you need to take a break?" said Jayna worriedly.

Hearing this, he feels his pride as a man get hurt.

"Don't worry, this kind of temperature is nothing to me." said Angus.

"I see.. then, let's move on." said Jayna.

Suddenly, Jayna attacked Angus out of nowhere using her fast jab. Angus already predicted this and caught her jab easily.

"See, you couldn't even dodge my attack. You are exhausted. Let's rest first." said Jayna.

"Err… No need…" said Angus.

Before Angus finished his sentence, "Rest now!!" said Jayna with a chilling tone.

"O-Okay." replied Angus.
