Reborn as an Extra Chapter 620: Types of Spirits In The Spirit Realm. (Skippable)
Previously on Reborn as an Extra...
Only three kinds of spirit beasts exist in the spirit realm capable of being summoned.
The initial and most prevalent among them are evil spirits.
It's widely recognized that the spirit realm overflows with miasma, where the majority of its areas suffer from severe contamination by corruption and miasmic decay.
Every creature, whether monster or spirit, inhabiting that place becomes corrupted, forming the bulk of the inhabitants in the whole spirit realm as these malevolent beings.
Numerous evil spirits and monsters faced by Team Astra within the Spire of Ascension came from this particular group.
The primary cause for viewing a 'Summoner' type awakener as a significant risk in this realm stems from the chance of calling forth an evil entity that could wreak havoc not just on oneself but on everyone around as well.
Frequently, skilled summoners draw forth mighty monsters that slip from their grasp and decline to form contracts.
This explains why summoners here must perform their summoning rituals under close watch nearly always.
Ellie, summoned by Liam, originated from this very group too, yet she proved to be psychologically sound and non-violent; had it been another shadow dragon in her place, Liam might have perished that very day.
The second variety includes spirits dwelling in isolated tiny enclaves of the spirit realm untouched by corruption, deemed ordinary spirits free from ties to malevolent natural powers.
These spirits have largely resided in distinct spirit realm enclaves from antiquity and endured by avoiding any exposure to miasma.
Alternatively, King Allen and the renowned healer Astra saved them, relocating them to cleansed sections of the spirit realm prepared by Astra for their preservation.
Around the globe, the majority of summoners call upon and bind contracts with such spirits, deploying them in combat.
Liam's wyvern along with his other summons fit into this classification.
Beyond these two groups lies a third one, featuring spirits utterly antithetical to the spirit realm's evil spirits in essence.
Such spirits wield potent purification magic, proving exceedingly scarce and formidable.
The bulk reside at the demi-god level, regarded as innate foes to evil spirits and demons alike.
Divine spirits is the name given to these sorts!
Divine Spirit General Kawaki qualifies as a formidable spirit demi-god within this group, and being a demi-god, he naturally possesses his personal 'World Authority.'
Having existed for millennia, one cannot possibly maintain feeble command over one's world authority.
A dull-witted swine could grow potent enough to demolish worlds after such an extended lifespan brimming with vast might and chances, much less an intelligent and sly divine spirit such as Kai.
Though Kai can't fully display or employ his 'World Authority' due to Lia's frailty as a vessel, he can still exert a minor effect on the 'World's' 'Law' linked tightly to his 'World Authority.'
That 'Law' stands as the 'Law' of 'Cosmic Order and Judgement'; it governs the preservation of universal balance and imposes severe retribution on wicked forces through celestial retribution!
The identical 'law' previously appeared in King Alex's blade, aiding his battles against mighty foes until the conclusion as the 'Sword of Cosmic Order, Raksha.'
Entities like Kai boast tremendous strength, yet they form the tiniest faction among this world's spirits.
Evil spirits outnumber all others, trailed by normal spirits, with divine spirits coming last.
As evil spirits dominate almost the entirety of the spirit realm, summoners face a high likelihood of invoking unruly, brainless evil creatures routinely.
The odds of drawing a normal spirit already dip under one percent, to say nothing of a divine spirit.
This underlies why summoner roles in this world carry extreme danger; unpredictability reigns over what entity one might suddenly release into the world.
Not even awakened, Liam managed to summon a top-tier S-rank shadow dragon!
Such a pinnacle S-rank dragon holds the power to battle scores of typical S-rankers alone, given that dragons inherently surpass regular beings in strength, boasting superior intellect and elemental prowess over most worldly creatures!
No documented cases exist of anyone summoning an SS-rank evil spirit in their early stages, though the chance of it happening isn't absent.
Just a remarkable summoner like Liam, succeeding in calling a strong, amiable beast on his debut attempt, escaped the usual monitoring.
Chiefly since, should he summon a threat, Ellie would allow him to manage the crisis independently.
The key factor enabling Lia to call forth Kawaki, a mighty divine spirit, lay in his binding to her lineage via a potent contract.
For ages, he had awaited a fresh successor to the silver bloodline endowed with the aptitude to forge a firm contract with him.
Despite Kai instilling great fear among dragons and being an oddity himself, to his summoner, he served as the ideal ally and a priceless resource.
With Kai as her strength, Lia not only gained an SS-ranker under her command but also displayed her staggering prospective might.
Down the line, upon Lia attaining SS rank, she'll effectively merge two SS-rankers into herself simultaneously, wielding dual distinct world authorities concurrently!
Beyond her personal world authority, she'll harness Kai's world authority indirectly for herself.
Clashing with her equates to confronting a pair of SS-rankers together every time!
