Chapter 9 - Journey to Willow

Sitting in the carriage, with the beautiful princess in his arms, Sam sat in contemplation.

While they fucked, they shared their minds, and he already read through her memories and found out more about her and this place.

She was Princess Jemima de Vandermillion, the 16 year old Princess of the Vandermillion Kingdom and was the youngest daughter of King Lucious de Vandermillion.

She was widely awknowledged as the most beautiful girl in her kingdom and most precious and favorite daughter of the King.

The Vandermillion family was a famous family of Mentalists. Her father is not only the king, but also the current Grandmaster of the Mental Force.

The Vandermillion family cultivates in the secret arts of the mind, and their style of fighting was feared by the other nations as they found it difficult to counter and very rare.

They could control their opponent’s mind, put them to sleep, cast illusions, read minds and only the very strong willed could escape their powers.

In the Fallen Realms, there are multiple ways to cultivate oneself. The Vandermillion technique was unique and a secret. They were probably not the only ones who could fight with their minds, but they were the most famous ones, with their ancestor forming a nation using his powers to conquer and rule.

This land was the country of Eternia, whereby the she was also a visitor passing by

Sam knew from her memories that Princess Jemima was traveling back from a royal wedding of the prince of the neighboring Kingdom of Armadasia. As her father was in cultivation, she attended the function in his stead.

During the wedding celebration, countless nobles tried to woo Princess Jemima, but as usual, she rejected them all.

Now, she was headed back to Celestial City, the capital of Eternia to use their teleportation portal to get back to her Kingdom of Vandermillion.

Sam also found out about the power scale in this realm from Jemima.

In general, the denizens of this dimension are between levels 0 to 100 with 0 being the lowest and 100 being the highest for mortals. Of course, this is the Nexus' more accurate measurements of the abilities here.

In the local measurements, 0-10 are Beginner level, 11-20 are Intermediate level, 21-30 are Advanced level, 31-40 are Master level, 41-50 are Grandmaster level, 51-60 are Saint level, 61-70 are Sage Level, 71-80 are Legendary Level, 81-90 are Immortal Level, 91-100 are Godly level.

The average villager or farmer would only be under level 10 in this realm. A good level mercenary will probably be around level 15-30 being either Intermediate or Advanced level. The levels of the guards guarding the carriage were each an average of 17 while Annabeth and Charlotte were around level 30 each.

Jemima herself was around level 22 herself, and she was regarded as a genius at her age. Her father, the legendary King Lucious was rumored to be a level 85, but even Jemima herself does not know.

Jemima herself was still young, and had not trained completely in her family arts yet. For comparison, an average mage that had graduated from a reputable magic academy would be roughly a level 30 while a truly genius level graduate or top fighter from an army barracks will be around level 35 to 40.

Of course, all these were guestimates based on Jemima’s knowledge. Sam could only accurately read Jemima’s level because she had become his familiar.

“Mortals have a maximum of level 100, how about beyond mortals?” Sam asked the Nexus.

[There are levels beyond would be for immortal level beings or mythical creatures or gods. However it would appear that for the people of this realm, perhaps that is the limit that they can reach]

[Furthermore, your potential is double, since you have both your own cultivation, as well as you will be able to learn the cultivation of this world]

Sam looked into Jemima’s memories and because of fucking her, he had already acquired her level of mental abilities.

Princess was considered a genius. At only 16 years old, she was already a level 22  in her family mental abilities.

At her level, it means that she would be able to influence all those at her level and below, and her level showed how many people she could influence. At her level, she could influence around 20 people with her skill at the same time.

It would also be possible for her to attack higher level opponents if they were not expecting her attacks, but they would be able to defend if their mental abilities were strong.

This meant that for all his other abilities, he was only the equivalent of a Level 2, as he had barely leveled up from fucking her. A level 2 is pathetically weak, like a villager who wasn’t particularly good at anything. A child would be more accurate to describe his skills, as he was neither physically strong and fast, nor had enough knowledge of this world to be considered clever or magically gifted.

However, now he had the skills of a Level 22 expert in the Vandermillion Mental abilities.

“That’s not too bad, at least I had a incredible jumpstart to my abilities” he thought to himself. 

[When you level up later on to a higher level than her, she will be automatically leveled up to your level the next time you fuck her. This will be useful as you progress through the realm] the Nexus added

“Oh” Sam nodded as he thought that it made sense. At least, compared to the games he played, he could have a familiar that was more powerful than himself.

“What does leveling up to level 2 for myself mean?” he asked the Nexus

[Leveling up to level 2 means that now you can summon another familiar. As Jemima is your first, you can summon another one.]

“Wait, every level I get 1 new familiar?” he asked, shocked.

[Affirmative. Is that not how it works in your games?]

“Erm…. Yes! You’re right. That is how it always works” he lied, laughing internally. He got another advantage in this realm.

[Furthermore, you now have 2 spell slots, and each spell will correspond to your level. So for example if you had a level 1 spell “Fireball” at level 1, now it is a more powerful level 2 spell]

“Oh! So now what spells do I have?” he asked the Nexus

[None. All skills and spells will have to be learned yourself.]

“Thought so” Sam mumbled.

[Don’t forget, you still have Jemima’s level 22 mental skills, so you are not entirely helpless]

 “That will be useful” he thought as the carriage appeared to be stopping.

“Your Highness, we are approaching the town of Willow” Charlotte’s voice said from the outside, not daring to open the carriage door. In essence it was a hint to get Sam out of the carriage. A commoner cannot be seen riding together with the princess, especially not one that dressed so shabbily.

“I will get out here Princess. I think I will explore this region a little bit more” Sam said, much to Jemima’s disappointment. She wanted to bring him back with her.

“You know I can’t follow you back. But I promise, I will visit you” he said as he kissed her deeply and hugged her.

“Please don’t forget your promise” she said hesitantly as she stared at him, trying to absorb every detail about his face. He nodded and exited the carriage.

Charlotte and Annabeth looked at him strangely as he exited the carriage and waved at them. What would Princess Jemima want to talk with him privately about? Why did she release his bonds?

Annabeth entered the carriage but Jemima chased her out, preferring to be alone.

Charlotte shook her head and commanded the carriage to move on. They overtook him bypassed Willow and headed towards the Celestial City which was still roughly two weeks away by carriage.
