"It''s time for Shye Crowley''s broadcast again. I wonder what the cool stuff he would show us was?"


    "Beats me. However, I enjoyed hisst broadcast. I hope he doesn''t disappoint this time."


    "Hmph! You pathetic lot! Instead ofpleting quests and advancing your own careers, here you are waiting for Crowley''s broadcast. It wasn''t that entertaining for me so I''ll be going! I''ll be waiting for you guys at the top!"


    "Heh, as if you''ll reach the top with your lousy talents! Go! Train so you can at least catch up to us!"


    Shye''s entertaining broadcast spread like wildfire as one person who watched recounted what happened to another who didn''t.


    Naturally, due to his rapid rise as a neer, it was inevitable for there to be a few haters.


    However, they were of no hindrance to Shye''s n as their voices were quickly drowned out by those who loved his broadcast during his channel''s grandunch.


    His recent broadcast was simply too entertaining to be ignored.


    It was a great pastime for those waiting for suitable quests to be posted on the quest board.@@novelbin@@


    Heck, most of them even wished for him to broadcast something new every day.


    Unfortunately, despite wanting to do so as it would give him loads of points, Shye had other responsibilities he could not ignore.


    Hence, he couldn''t be a full-time live broadcaster.


    The huge amount of points he would earn per broadcast were mere bonus points he could use to increase his attributes and advance his adventuring career further.


    Well, the two would advance hand-in-hand, though, since earning more points would allow him to grow stronger and gradually advance to the peak of the adventuring world.


    He would then be more famous, gain more fans and viewers, and earn more points, allowing him to increase his strength again through the shy Adventurer System, which in turn, would further advance his adventuring career.


    A win-win situation for both his career and side hustle.


    "Oh? Look, he''s finally live."


    "Hmm? Where is he? Isn''t that the familiar summoning chamber?"


    "T-There''s no way he already got a familiar summoning scroll! Those things cost a fortune and require strong connections too!" Read new adventures at empire


    "You idiot! Do you really think someone so talented wouldn''t have both? This young man is probably wealthier than both of usbined! And when ites to connections, wouldn''t people in power be the ones reaching out to him?!"


    The guildsmen crowd and the viewers who were watching at their homes and inn rooms spected.


    However, none of their guesses were even close to what actually happened.


    Shye, with the help of the system, was only able to obtain a [Legendary]-grade familiar summoning scroll as a reward for his recentlypleted mandatory quest.


    It was the old man who had some strong connections, not him.


    Since none of his viewers knew the truth, they assumed he had the money and connections himself.


    This misconception boosted his fame and slightly increased his safety, as those plotting to abduct or kill him would have to reconsider whether they could handle Shye''s supposed backers.


    "Wee, everyone, to my live broadcasting adventurer channel! I''m Shye Crowley, and today I''ll be summoning my first familiar with this scroll. Will it be weak andme? Absolutely not! For I am the great Shye Crowley! MUAHAHAHAHA!


    Why not bet with your friends on the rank of familiar I''ll obtain?" Shye jollily eximed with a confident smile.


    Since his suggestion was both entertaining and practical, his viewers, watching alongside others, promptly began making bets with their friends.


    Some bets were made for enjoyment, while others were ced for substantial amounts of money.


    Meanwhile, Shye gave his viewers a few seconds to talk amongst themselves, allowing them to arrange bets as though he was sure that they would before speaking again:


    "Well then, let''s begin, shall we, sir chamber operator?"


    "Yes, please ce the summoning scroll on the designated area."


    Standing before an immense magic circle in the center of a spacious summoning chamber with high ceilings, Shye followed the operator''s instructions.


    He then walked to the designated area and promptly ced the summoning scroll.


    "Now, please stand in the middle of the smaller magic circle." The chamber operator said, waiting for Shye to arrive at his position before continuing: "Next, please channel your mana and feed it to the magic circle. You must continue to do so until I tell you to stop."


    Naturally, Shye would follow the instructions meticulously, refraining from any exaggerated enthusiasm solely to entertain his viewers.


    "I shall activate the magic circle now, Sir Crowley. Please continue feeding the circle with mana until a familiar appears in the center summoning circle."


    Giving a silent nod to the chamber operator, Shye resolved not to hold back, knowing that doing so mightpromise the summoning process and result in him acquiring a weaker familiar than he could obtain by giving his all.

    Meanwhile, in another world inhabited by sentient monstrous creatures of various tiers and ranks, who had already established civilizations at different developmental stages, bright azure lights glowed in eight distinct locations.


    "Hey, look! A summoning light just appeared at Pokko Castle!"


    The sentient monstrous creatures weren''t surprised by the azure light, as its appearance seemed to be amon urrence in their world.


    Instead, they were mostly surprised by the specific locations where the summoning lights emerged.


    In Gomparo, the world of familiar spirits, it was a blessing to be summoned by a human from another world.


    However, it was also a widely known fact that each spirit would only receive summons from humans of equivalent andpatible strength, skills, and talents.


    Moreover, as long as a spirit and a human werepatible, it wasn''t impossible for multiple familiar spirits to receive summoning lights, which they could respond to faster than other spirits or reject should they not like the vibes the human''s mana was giving them.


    Unfortunately, only the spirit who epted the summons faster than the others would be summoned to the other world and receive benefits from the humans they were bound to.


    Since familiar spirits do not age and cannot die from old age, their contracts with humans only terminate when either they perish in battle or their contracted humans pass away, allowing them to return to their world and await another summon.


    Hence, in theory, the more full contracts a familiar spiritpleted, the stronger they were.


    However, this didn''t mean that they couldn''t grow stronger in their own world, it was just that they could grow faster in Adthiopia.


    In such a fiercelypetitive world where survival hinged on strength and alliances, there naturally existed pinnacle beings: the eight spirit kings.


    These were the eight most powerful familiar spirits in Gomparo, and now, all of them suddenly received summoning lights, causing an uproar of unprecedented magnitude.
