On the following day Arthur spends his time leisurely in the mansion and mostly is accompanying Emilia on her study, he always checks the trading company in the Lugunica once every morning, as for the one in Gusteko and Vollachia he just checks it when he delivering the goods from the warehouse.

In the Vollachia the security is quite safe so he didn't need to worry about the trading company moreover he also paid the tax to the empire and for the Gusteko side after he showered the ground with the ȧssailants' blood, there is no one who dares to cause trouble for the trading company.

"Arthur, how about the Karsten family? Will they help us?" The next morning after the demon beast incident Emilia want to ask the greatest healer in the kingdom, Felix Argyle, to heal Subaru's damage gate

"I didn't know how he can damage his own gate like that..." honestly Arthur didn't really like Subaru that's why he never meet with him, but he was needed for emergency measures

"From what I heard from Rem, it was his first time use his magic so it was understandable if he can't control it properly and end up damaging his own gate"

"The Duchess of Karsten is accepting our request, but because Felix is her knight she just can make Felix treat him in the Karsten Household"

"That's also fine, he injured because he help us, so we need to help him to treat his injury"

"Speaking of which, we have a guest here"

Emilia following Arthur's line of sight and she can see a dragon carriage is entering the mansion area

"It seems they're from the capital, you need to meet them with Roswaal"

"You will not go?"

"I have something to do..." Arthur play with a card on his hand "I will not go anywhere"

After Emilia leaves the room Arthur crush the card on his hand, it was a specific item card that he received from the system.

Solomon Grimoire: A grimoire used by Solomon to make the 72 greatest devils follow his orders obediently.

● To form the contract it needs for the contracted one to write their own name on the grimoire

● Every being that had their name written on this grimoire will follow obediently any order given by the holder of the grimoire

"Solomon Grimoire? I know about some of Solomon's legend but this is my first time heard he had a grimoire, maybe he is Solomon from different worlds" with him who is coming from another world then there is a very large possibility if there is another world that he didn't know "It's a good grimoire, but the limitations for the target to write their own name is a bit problematic... System, can I get the specific spirit?"

^No, the most Host can get from specific item card is random spirit summon card^

"A random spirit... alright, give me one and use it immediately" Arthur didn't want to summon a group of spirit immediately to reduce the possibility of they will attacking him before he can establish a contract

^Using specific item card... using random spirit summon card... summoning success^

After the blinding light disappears in the previous place where the rune is shined stood a man with a girl doll on his hand.

"Please to meet you, my name is Baal and this is my companion Sezan. I know it's rude but can you tell me where am I right now?"

The two of them... no, three people in the room look at each other before Arthur open a book and give it to the man who introduced himself as Baal with a pen

".....Wait, I'm not very good at remembering other people's names so can you write it here?"

"Oh, no problem... Baal...Sezan.. yes this is our-"

^Congratulations you successfully established a contract with your first spirit, you get Magaraha's tome as a reward^

Magaraha's tome: An ancient book written by The Great Magaraha. It contains all of Magaraha's magical research. Due to its complicated content and massive volume, it needs a large amount of patience to read it.

"You?! You dare to trick me?!" He, The Great Illusionist Baal is tricked by a cheap trick like this is a shameful thing. It was because he thinks if the man in front of him just an ordinary person when he can't feel any type of energy from him so he becomes careless because of that

When the contract is established the two parties received each other information but the information that Baal and Sezan received about Arthur is very limited, it was just stated if Arthur is a knight for Emilia the queen candidate for the Lugunica kingdom. As for Arthur, he received the complete memory of Baal and Sezan.

"I know you're very angry because I'm tricked the two of you, but didn't you want to restore the body's of your teacher?" After received Baal and Sezan memories, Arthur know what is their dream and he uses it as a bait

"Do you know a way to restore her body?" Baal asking expectantly but there is still some wariness in his eyes

"I didn't know, but I have something that can lend you this book" Arthur take out a Magaraha's tome and pass it to Baal

"This is the legendary Magaraha's tome!" The doll that hosted Sezan's soul exclaim when she looks at the cover of the tome "I thought this book is being destroyed when the great war has happened"

Honestly, in their world, the only one who might have the ability to make a body again for her is just the great Magaraha, but Baal still refuses to believe if her fate is becoming a doll for the rest of her life, he believes there must be a way to restore her body that's why they travel to anywhere they can.

"If you can lend me this book I, Baal, will loyal to you from now to eternity" for him to restore the body's of his teacher is the only goal that he has that's why the Magaraha's tome is the most important thing that he needs to achieve it

When Baal wants to kneel on the floor Arthur throws the tome to Baal, catching the tome Baal is very panic afraid if the book will damage or there is some page that torn up from the tome.

"The book is yours, with the existence of Solomon's Grimoire your loyalty is not something that I need. I just didn't want to have a forced loyalty because of the book, I want you to really loyal to me no matter what I will do in the future" Arthur stand up and walk to the door "I help you to fulfill your dreams, so as a payment I want you to help me. follow me, I will bring you to a person who knows a lot of thing regarding of how magic is work in this world, although you have the Magaraha's tome this is not your previous world so I afraid there will be some difference occur with how the magic is work in this world"

"Thank you for your help, Arthur-sama" Sezan really felt thankful for the help given by Arthur, although at first there is some resentment because he deceived them the two of them also in fault here because they're careless in front of a stranger

Baal is the last descendant of a powerful devil family who is lost in the great war and because of fate Baal who is at that time, just a child accepted as an apprentice by Sezan, as a devil Baal has a very high aptitude for magic especially illusion type magic.

Under Sezan's tutelage, Baal is growing up as a very strong magician. But facing the accident that happened to Sezan when she researches the forbidden magic he is very helpless and just can preserve her soul and insert it into a doll.

Although he never shows any negative emotion in front of Sezan, she knows deep inside his heart he is very distressed with the fact she is turned into a helpless doll from a very strong magician and he can't do anything to restore her body.

That's why she is very thankful to Arthur because he makes Baal have a passion and hope again, not just helplessness and self-blaming. No matter what with the time they spend together Sezan not just treats Baal as her apprentice but she also treats him as her child so she didn't want to see him depressed because of her condition.

....

"Give Betty a reason why she needs to help you, I suppose" Beatrice look at Arthur indignantly, she still angry whenever she remembers their last encounter where Arthur said if she is Roswaal's little sister

"I can give you a chance to learn a new type of magic that maybe never appear in this world" Arthur make Baal show the Magaraha's tome to Beatrice but she looks at Arthur like an idiot

"Why do you think Betty will believe in you when she can't even understand what that worm-like text means is, I suppose"

"That's why I bring the two of them, they're Baal and Sezan. They will teach you how to read that book and so you can learn from the tome, as a payment for that you need to help them in their research, it's a win-win solution, right?"

After Beatrice agrees to help Baal and Sezan Arthur leave the room and going back to his room, Arthur takes out a book from inventory and opens the marked page, inside this book Arthur writes the plan that he made and sometimes he will adjust it accordingly.

"With Baal and Sezan I get a master for yin magic, with Beatrice help he can adjust his magic so it can compatible with the people in this world, at that time it will be the first step for my plan to make a magic academy"

With Baal capabilities, it was a waste just to make him a teacher but he can't make him run an errand for him every time because Baal needs time to research how to reconstructing Sezan's body. Although Sezan is a great magician, she is just a doll now and didn't have any mean to use magic that's why Baal is the one who needs to perform magic research.

"So I need to summon another spirit?"
