"Milady, are you alright? You seem down?" A lady wearing a maid clothing ask her employer daughter while giving a bright smile.

"I'm fine, don't worry about it." The lady immediately turn her previous frown into a smile to not make to much of a fuss.

'Damn bitch, you seem happy about me being married away to the son of the baron.' The lady curses the maid inside her heart without hesitation as she knew that the maid was enjoying deep inside.

'Sighed... I can't believe, father would do this to me, the peerless genius that everyone knows about is being married off to a son of a baron.'

Ava Philip, the eldest daughter of the Marquess, Harry Philip. Ava was the most talented and educated person since she was born. Learn how to talk fluently when she was three years old, horseriding in four even though she sneakily did it. Age five learn how to read and write and do basic arithmetic and also do mental calculation faster than the treasury of her household.

How about etiquette you might ask? She even got praise by the majesty himself when he asked her father to bring her to meet with him as the rumors of her being the peerless genius.

Both of her parents look at her with expectations. Her father even started to brag on how she might be the perfect person to take over his household though she is a woman.

As a child, being feed with numerous praise about her beauty and talents hence most of it went to her head, and in short of a year of exposure with the outside world, she becomes a proud and arrogant person. Having a bright future ahead and the chance of being one of the most powerful beings in this world her character started changing.

She started to treat her maids and butlers different as before, ordered them with a harsh voice and mercilessly fire them if they make a mistake. Complaints were sent to her father, Harry Philip but due to how his daughter is his hope and dreams for the household he closed one eye and gave way for his daughter.

It was then her younger brothers were born, Chris Philip with the same mother as her while her father mistress bears Thomas Philip. Treated similarly as Ava, she felt as if they are threatening her status. Ava addresses both of her brothers roughly and insults them whenever she has the chance.

It is her way to show her brothers that she is superior to them but everything in her life completely changes during her age of ceremony. Once a child is twelve years old, they are to attend the age of ceremonial. It is a short and simple procedure for the child to form a contract with a spirit. In her case, something they had never seen before happened. Not even one spirit appear within the circle to form the contract.

At the start, they all thought that there was a mistake on the circle and proceeded to allow another child to come forth, but their hope was lost when even two spirits appeared and started fighting each other to be the first spirit to be contracted.

Her father forces the ceremony to end and stop anyone from going out. He then bribes and threatens everyone within the scene, if any words got out that her daughter wasn't able to contract with a spirit he will eliminate all of them at once.

Everyone knows that even though Harry holds the position of Marquess, he is much more potent than any of the Duke out there. As he is one of the four generals that are tasked to defend the kingdom.

E.g., This is how powers are distributed within the kingdom.

King | Queen

Prince | Princess

General

Duke | Duchess

Marquess | Marchioness | Commander

Count | Countess

Viscount | Viscountess | Knights

Baron | Baroness | Squire

Peasants

As one of the most powerful and trusted house within the kingdom is giving them a chance to walk away with their life intact, no one decline, after taking the gold from her father they walk away without any fuss.

That day, children that come after them would have to turn up the next day as the priest apologizes to the rest that the circle of magic is currently weak and it is not confirmed that their child could form a contract. A simple but compelling argument that forces the parents to pull their child home immediately.

Whose parent want their children to live without a spirit? The most convenient entity that could bring their life around if their child can contract a God level spirit.

There are 9 tier to represents the spirits;

God Level

Continent Level

Emperor Level

King Level

General Level

Commander Level

Knight Level

Squire Level

Peasant Level

Each level of the spirit can change their contractor position within the world and ability to be able to do anything they want.

E.g. The king has a Continent level spirit that could bring meteors down from the sky and eliminate his enemy. Each spirit can affect any element they want.

Harry receive his position is purely due to his spirit that is an Emperor level, the only second strongest level below the king. Without the king, Harry could have even replaced the king himself.

Thus, it is straight to say that having no spirit is the same as having nothing in the world. No one will compare you to another person if you do not have a spirit, no matter how genius you are.

The incident changed Ava life completely, upon her arrival back to her mansion. The servants that hate her started showing their displeasure towards her. Pranks and insults hurled at her day after day.

She tried to approach her father, but the administrator taking care of her father told her that her father was busy and had no time for her. It was time that things got real, even her eight-year-old brother know about her condition. Every time she met up with her brother Chris, he would smug at her back and brag that he wonders what kind of spirit he could get.

While Ava usually mutters.

'Hope you get none too, and see how father will treat you then.'

The same year her youngest sister was born, Mia Philip. Strange enough, she never gets to see or approach her younger sister. Every time she tries, either Chris or the servants would prevent her from meeting Mia.

Years pass, the news of her didn't spread out and on this particular year. In fact, on her very sixteen birthday, her father told her to meet with her fiancee which immediately destroy her hope of gaining back her father trust toward her to become the owner of the household.

Accompanied by her, was the cruel maid that she could never part, not because she wanted it to be this way, she was forced to by her father, the maid herself volunteer to be her personal maid. A maid that doesn't give a fuck what happened to her milady life even if her milady is killed in front of her.

The maid does heed the instructions given by her when they are outside but when within the premises she would quickly disappear and leave Ava alone. Ava spent four years of her life mostly alone once in a while able to chat with her only brother that treat her like a typical sibling, Thomas.

Even though Ava had treated Thomas, her brother harsh previously, he didn't mind and continued to approach her like his elder sister. Once her brother commented a proverb 'blood is thicker than water' she was comforted by him and ignoring how she looks to others, Ava for the first time of her teenage life cried to her sleep on her younger brother lap.

~ Back to the present.

She was going back to her mansion after meeting with Nigel, son of a baron. Nigel himself is one of most hardworking man within the army and news spread that he is about to be promoted into one of the knights. His spirit knight level is one of the reasons why he could be able to get to where he is today.

No matter how much hard work you put in, but if your spirit level is lower than knight, you won't be promoted.

'I wonder what will you do when you realize that you had been married to someone that doesn't own a spirit. He might even store me inside his house so that he won't be embarrassed anymore.'

As Harry knew the importance of a spirit within the world, he wanted to send Ava away from his household quickly and could even blame someone else. Imagine the daughter of Harry that has the reputation of the peerless genius but upon marriage to the son of a baron either the marriage or something that her husband had done resulting in losing her contracted spirit.

Harry could fake his anger and force his personal army to destroy the family without being disturbed by the king. The king knew how much love Harry has on his daughter, previously brag to him on how Ava might become her successor if there isn't any man in his family.

As the carriage was about to reach her mansion gate, a sudden translucent window appears in front of her.

[Congratulations you have been given a system to help fulfill your dreams. I am 001 and would love to be renamed by you. ]

Ava immediately turns around looking for any suspicious person in her surrounding especially the sadistic maid but weirdly enough.

"What's wrong why are you looking at me like that milady? You can't wait to say goodbye?" The bitch started smiling at her once more.

"... Nothing." Ava closes her eyes, and the translucent window once again appeared inside her mind.

'Am I going crazy now? Is this both auditory and visionary hallucination?'
