Chapter 20

The inside of Fred's home was the same as.the previous day. The cracks on the wall that made the building look like it would fall apart. The plain room which serves as a sitting room was adorned with mats on the floor.

"So kid." Fred's father said to Sam as he sat crossed legs on one of the available mats. "Something about a soul energy manipulation with the aid of a contracted beast."

Sam and Fred was seated adjacent and crossed legs to each other.

Knowing that the words were directed at him, Sam answered. "Yes, sir.. Humphrey." He answered, still not used to calling an elder by their first name. He then proceeded to explain the link between soul energy and contracted beast.

Sam made use of an electric current and a conductor as an illustration. The current was the soul energy that a summoner possesses, while the conductor was the contracted beast. Having a specified amount of current without a conductor could lead to death or probably disfiguration.
