Chapter 13

Louise was not very pleased with her weird familiar. But what could she do about it, the summoning ritual had already finished. She felt that the only way to vent her frustration was to punish her stupid familiar. She decided that she would not give him food tonight for his insolence during the ritual.

William, on the other hand, was doing a victory dance in his head due to benefits from answering this summoning. Just now. Saphira had informed him that due to higher magical content in this plane, space would level up in about 4 months. After that, she would be able to create a specific type of marker using the principal of summoning from this world. The marker would act as a beacon and whenever he exits from the space he could directly choose to exit at the place where the marker was placed.

There were two downsides to it though. Saphira could only create 5 of them after the level up, and the marker could only be placed on living targets. Fortunately, the markers were effective across the different dimension. This would allow him to shuttle between the Harry Potter world and the Zero no Tsukaima world freely.

As soon as they were inside her room Louise decided to lay the ground rules.

"You are familiar, so you will do the cleaning, laundry and other odd chores from now on. As you were disobedient in front of other students so you won't get to accompany me to dinner tonight. Do you understand?"

"Hmm, I don't feel like doing either cleaning or laundry and as for odd chores, I will do it only if it involves saving beautiful women, hopefully, Milfs, dragons, and killing."

"You perver-"

"Right!"

Without waiting for Louise to finish, William acted as if he had come to a realisation. He sent Zangetsu inside his mindscape and started stripping away his coat, waistcoat, and shirt. After a few seconds, his immature but perfectly sculpted bare torso appeared in front of Louise.

"This is serious so answer me honestly. What can you see on my back?"

Although Louise wanted to scold her impudent familiar but seeing his stern gaze she decided to keep her trap shut. When she looked at his back, she was truly surprised the weird looking creature carrying a scythe. If she had to use a word to describe the picture then it could only be one thing, Death!

In a slightly hesitant voice, she answered, "I see a....man? or creature holding a scythe."

William turned around with a happy smile and said, "If you have so much void element magical energy at such an early age then why are you wasting your time learning magic from other attributes?"

Louise was completely stupified by the question. She couldn't even process what William was saying.

After taking some deep breaths and tightly clenching her fists she asked, "What do you mean by void element?"

Although William knew nothing about magic but since had already read the whole novel he acted as if Louise was the stupid one for not knowing such a thing.

"That's surprising! You don't know your own attribute? I mean people generally know it or discover it before starting to officially learn magic, right? Clearly, yours is Void and it seems it is very strong. I don't think you will ever be able to use other elements efficiently."

Louise was so shocked that she couldn't even maintain her consciousness. She bade farewell to this cruel world *ahem* I mean she took an impromptu nap on the ground.

Sigh! "Such a stupid master she is. At least be on a bed if you want to faint."

Still, William picked up the little girl and placed her on her bed and then covered her up with the nice and comfy blanket present there.

He felt that since he was in a fantasy world and he wasn't as weak as he used to, so he should explore around.

(*Ding* You should use the increase in your chakra to properly open up the Mangekuyo Sharingan first.)

'Don't worry so much Saphira. We are in the middle of the first episode. I promise that I will open it tonight.'

As there was no reply from Saphira, he assumed that she had allowed it. But before he went his merry way he needed to do one more thing. With a flick of his fingers, Itachi appeared in front of him.

"Go around and have fun too. It's not a very strong world, and it is relatively peaceful too. Also, keep your ears open for dragon related news."

With a small nod, Itachi disappeared among the leaves.

While coming downstairs from the dorm room he met Kirche Zerbst. She was on a date with some bearded guy. He was wearing a student uniform but he must be a senior based on his looks.

Although she was one of the hottest anime characters from his childhood, he wasn't particularly interested in her because he knew that they treated sex differently. Still, he walked towards her as he had nothing else to do. Maybe she could tell him about something that could be fun.

"Hey there Miss! Nice to meet you. I'm William Walker." William finished his introduction by offering his right hand for a handshake.

"Oh, Its the peasant familiar of the Zero! What are you doing here? Did you run away from that annoying brat and come to me for comfort? Oh, what should I do? You are very handsome and I do want to taste you but I'm on a date with Caesar right now."

William took his hand back completely flabbergasted and looked at Kirche with a gaze that clearly conveyed, 'ARE YOU RETARDED?'

"I may look taller than your classmate Louise, but I'm six years old. Shouldn't you...umm..mangage your taste better?"

This time it was Kirche's turn be flabbergasted. She never imagined that a six-year-old child would become a summon. She couldn't help but feel pity for him. William was quick to notice that and he thought that there was not a huge advantage to act like a kid in this world so he decided to nip the idea in bud.

"Don't worry too much about it. I responded to the summoning because I am confident about my fighting capabilities. Oh, right! Here is my business card for my guild."

He handed Kirche a gold coloured metal card. It had his name and a picture of a white-winged grim reaper on it.

"We specialize in assassinations and genocides. If you have a job for us, just tap the card 6 times in quick succession. Someone will immediately get in contact with you.

Since we take careful consideration of the personality of our clients before handing out a gold card, so all the assassination missions will be approved without a second thought. But if you want to issue a genocide mission, you will have to present enough evidence that the targets are not innocent."

This was an impromptu experiment William had come up with. He wanted to see how similar these people were to their anime counterparts. According to the anime version of Kirche, she would most probably never use it.

On the other hand, the golden guild card was something that was automatically generated once each day, after the guild headquarters was built. According to Saphira, what was the point of a guild if it didn't do business and generate its own revenue.

Kirche jokingly accepted the guild card because she truly felt that William was trying to act like a mature adult in an unfamiliar environment. Unfortunately, this further increased her interest in him.

She stood up with a jump and took William into a hug which prompted William to belatedly realise that his plan had completely backfired.

Sigh! This was going to be a tough evening for him.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

After an hour of being toyed around with Kirche, he managed to escape. Though William didn't mind the boobs, he still had lots of stuff to do.

As soon as he reached a deserted corner of the academy, Itachi appeared in front of him.

"While was walking through the town outside the academy, I came across an interesting mercenary group. They were bragging about how they had escaped the assault of fully-grown dragon by merely losing 20% of their members. I have taken over the group by disguising as a leader. I will be leaving to capture the dragon. Do you have any objections?"

William was truly surprised by Itachi's efficiency. To be able to blend so perfectly in a completely strange environment was really worthy of someone as legendary as him. Some may think he was overreacting but please try to go to a completely different country and explore it without sufficient cash.

(AN: I almost shat my pants when I came to Canada as an international student because of the small talk culture. It was hell!)

William thought about the options and realized that nothing dangerous enough to harm him was going to happen until the war with the Kingdom of Albion. It would be better for Itachi to move alone and develop some connections in this world.

"Sure, go ahead. See if you can establish some kind of elite fighting force. Nothing too fancy. I am just toying with the idea of inter-dimensional trade corporation. It would help if they can sustain themselves on their own. Feel free to ask for Saphira's help if you need to."

Itachi gave his usual stoic nod and disappeared.

'Professor Colbert must have reported the suspicion of me being Gandálfr to the principal by now. I don't want to mess up the plot a lot.

I will just quietly train myself to better use Zangetsu and Mangekyou Sharingan. I should spar with Zangetsu at least an hour each day. I still don't know how to properly control Getsuga Tenshou as I have never used it before.'

After defining a goal for himself, William walked towards Louise's room.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Saphira can you get me some simple meat dish. I haven't had anything to eat since morning.

(*Ding* You have zero galleons. You can't purchase anything from the shop. The 2 galleons left from earlier purchase were used up to provide basic Language proficiency to you and Itachi.)

This was the first time in his life that William realised that money management skills were very essential for survival. Well, although he tried to act dignified in front of his mother, he was still a shameless bastard.

He mentally passed an order to Itachi for depositing some gold coins in the farm. Itachi being Itachi didn't even bat an eyelid regarding such a request. After a few moments, 100 gold coins appeared in his status sheet.

Like this, one of the shameless moments of great William Walker's life was quietly pushed under a rug....for now. William had forgotten to take into account the ever-present Saphira.
