I wake up and feel something wet falling through my cheeks.

I place my hands on them and realize their tears.

'Seems like I was crying during my sleep.'

'Also, why is my lap so heavy?'

I sit on the bed and look at my lap to discover why it's heavy and realize Aurora is there in grimoire form.

I grab her and place her on top of a pillow.

'Let me have a look at status, to see the changes.'

'It seems like the contract was successful.' I pat the grimoire while smiling.

'My disgrace and soul went up yet again, I feel disgraceful at this point, I wonder what I did wrong?'

'Though the rank of the grimoire turned out to be the very worst,' I think a little disappointed.

'Oddly enough I expected sister to have become a high-ranking Grimoire since it has a soul and a unique element in it, not a ranked F one.'

'What is that thing after the grade of the grimoire?

Notice: Suggestion to use the Appraisal skill.

'Sure? Appraise the grimoire rank F!'

Notice: 500 mana has been deducted.

Notice: Appraisal unique skill has leveled up to 2.

A little screen appeared next to it.

[Grimoire(F: 0/100) Evolutionary type of item that requires killing enemies to awaken to the next rank.]

'Woah! What's up with that mana consumption!? Unique skills are scary!

"That definition is very unexpected and incredible at the same time!" I say with excitement.

"Seems like Aurora can become stronger."

'Even though I have yet to see how strong she is in reality.'

'Can she even fight? She's a book... Am I supposed to use her instead?'

I see mana shining on the grimoire and then it transforms back into my appearance.

"Good morning sister," I tell her happily.

"You seem awfully happy, but then again I suppose that's normal," a faint smile is shown on her face.

"By the way Iris, you should use your skills points so you can get a class."

"Why?"

"It'll make you stronger and we're both level 1 so we're worse than ants."

"Do ants have levels?"

"Probably?"

We look at each other wondering...

'I'd like to see my possible skills.'

Notice: Due to the gigantic list of skills, would you like to see active or passive ones first?

'Skills related to wisdom or mana, I really need more of it please.'

Notice: Loading specification into a screen:

Available Skills:

Slight Wisdom boost

Slight Mana recovery

Solo Boost

Party Boost

I look at my sister.

'Is she part of the solo? Or the party section? I don't have enough mana to use appraisal so I'll get the first two skills.'

"So you got mana skills, Iris, well they're bound to become useful."

"You can see my status screen too?"

"Yes, I couldn't see the skills you could choose but your library and status are viewable."

Cursed Soul-bound

"Woah, you have a lot of things and really high status with barely any titles!"

'Her race is human after all? Is it because of her soul?'

'Seems like she has similar skills to mines, she didn't copy my bleeding resistance?'

'Maybe she can't bleed...'

'She does have attack and magic attack like I have when wielding a weapon.'

'Aurora's not holding any weapon so it must be due to being a grimoire.'

'What a strange status, I expected it to be a little different, more weapon-like.'

'Anyway, time to check the possibilities of my future.'

'I want to see the classes please.'

Notice: Loading the possible choices based on status.

Classes Available:

Witch

"Hum... I only have the talent for one class called Witch?"

Aurora starts laughing upon hearing my words, "take it sister it's a very interesting and complex magical class."

"Why are you laughing?" I ask confused.

"In our past world it was a job for female evil mages, and whenever I look at you I don't see much evil."

'Evil? Could it be my disgrace? I think about all the animals killed and things I did to get all that disgrace...'

'I guess I am evil to some extent...'

'I'll take the witch class, it'll be my apology for the lives taken.'

Notice: The Witch Class has been acquired.

Notice: Witchcraft skill tree is now available.

System: The title Class has been received.

"Well, I got it."

'I'll check the witchcraft skill tree when I have skill points to spend.'

"Good good you won't regret it, despite being evil in our world doesn't mean that it's the same in this world."

"I suppose you're right."

"I used my status and skills but I'm not able to acquire any class for now."

"Well, that's what you get for laughing on mine! At least I got one!"

We spend a while teasing each other.

I check my status to see the information on the class.

Cursed Soul-bound(Grimoire Rank F: 0/100)

'At least it's not a rank 0 class like farming.'

'It seems like I'll need 2000 experience to rank the class higher, sounds like a lot.'

'The wisdom has an extra 1 next to it, is it due to the wisdom boost? Must be.'

'For now, my best offensive stat is actually strength so I'll take the metal short sword of my mother as it increases my attack status.'

'I can manage the mana with some mana coating and use my stats together like that.'

'I'll save mana wave for emergencies as mother advised me.'

I take Aurora to the river to show her my field which I water every day except on rainy days.

"Would you like to water it? You might get a title which will make you stronger!"

"The farming series that took you a year to complete did give you a lot of statuses."

"Exactly try it."

I watch her get water from the river than water the whole field.

"Any luck?"

"None," she replied coldly.

'Seeing as she was sad about the swordsmanship skill earlier, and the title not working, does it possibly mean that...'

'Since she's a book the system doesn't apply to her?'

'Seeing as in her status earlier she had an experience bar and a level I think that is not the case...'

'Maybe...' I speak, "I think the titles you get will be different than the ones I get."

"Like titles only for grimoires?"

"Yes, exactly! That's why some skills you were able to copy and others not!"

"That could be true."

"If I'm right then you don't need to be sad, I'm sure you'll do great with magic, even better than me since you have a unique element!"

She nods silently.

We head to the farm at the east which needs help with the slimes.

I check the guild quest one more time to make sure.

Quest

Rank: F

A group of slimes between 10 to 20 has been sighted on the east farm of the Astia village.

They have been eating the crops and so a farmer requests support from the guild.

You'll be rewarded 2 points and 5 copper per slime killed.

I head home to get the short sword and a bag with a water flask in it and head there with Aurora.
