Why stop at the obvious?

ㅤ Frayne puzzled over the notes of Klarth, his legendary ancestor. All his scientific works were well-read, but the most valuable were the notes preserved only within the family. In his documents, Klarth detailed the complexity of the summoning process, all the subtleties that had to be taken into account. The sheer number of details was enough to make one's head explode. Yet all the legends described the ease with which Klarth F. Lester summoned even the most powerful spirits. The Origin alone was worth it! Or Pluto, ruler of the Underworld? 'Hmm…' Frayne thought deeply. 'Pluto and Gremlin aren't spirits. Does that mean, with enough skill, it's possible to summon any monster?' Frain's mind was firmly hooked. Summoning a spirit demanded too much—he wasn't yet ready for that. Take the tattoos that covered Klarth's body, for example. Applying even a small part of the design was already a challenge. 'I'll only get to my first summoning when I'm old…' Frayne thought, horrified. The ability to summon monsters gave him hope. He thought weaker monsters wouldn't pose a problem—those he could defeat himself. And each one of them would hardly require a specific stone. Frayne chose to develop in this direction, never forgetting the hope of one day summoning a spirit. 'But you have to start small.' He began by capturing monsters and trying to negotiate with them… But the monsters weren't willing to negotiate with him. He had to delve into his ancestor's books and notes again, searching for clues and hints about his mistakes. Through much trial and error, Frayne came to the conclusion that… nothing ever comes easy. Something is always needed. Something on which at least the simplest contract can be concluded. And until he finds that something, he has no hope of anything. Therefore, memorization and research alone are not enough—he must embark on an adventure and explore the world itself! Every corner! Completely and entirely! And fate rewarded him for his correct decision… ㅤ
