As they get older, Elizabeth and Victor become close friends. Victor's friendship with Henry Clerval, a classmate and an only child, deepens, and he spends his childhood surrounded by this close group of friends. Victor meets Henry, a classmate, and the two become friends because of their shared interest in science.
- Chapter 6
- Victor devotes himself to his studies, reading all he can about the sciences, especially chemistry. Developing a reputation as a scientist and an innovator among teachers and peers. Victor considers returning to Geneva, but instead embarks on a new line of scientific inquiry: generating life from death and reanimating a dead corpse. Victor fails multiple times while searching morgues and graves for the requisite body pieces before finally succeeding in bringing his creature to life. His job does take a toll on him, hurting his health and ability to make decisions. Victor is obsessed with his work and devotes so much time to it that he loses all contact with the outer world.
- Chapter 7
- In November of his second year, Victor succeeds in bringing his invention, an eight-foot man, to life. He flees the apartment, excited and appalled by "the monster" he had made. He wanders the streets of Ingolstadt until he is discovered in terrible health by Henry Clerval. Henry had come to the institution to inquire about his acquaintance and to enroll. When Henry and Victor return to Victor's apartment, they discover that the creature has vanished. Victor is overjoyed that his monster has vanished, and he collapses in a fit of fatigue as a result of the release of tension about his creation. After a difficult fall, Henry spends the remainder of the winter and spring bringing Victor back to health.
- Elizabeth's letter is the type of thing a worried family member might write. It's chock-full of good news from home, which cheers Victor up and helps him regain his health. Justine Moritz, Frankenstein's servant and confidante, is described by Elizabeth. Justine is a martyr for being a kind and devoted friend to the Frankenstein family, while being mistreated by her own family. Victor presents Henry to his teachers, all of whom are quite complimentary of Victor. Victor and Henry start their studies together, learning old and foreign languages to keep their minds stimulated. Both males are content to be dedicated college students. Victor is expected to return to Geneva in the fall following his spring recuperation.
- Victor receives a letter from his father ordering him to return home right away because his younger brother, William, has been strangulated to death. The letter is significant because it marks a turning point in the novel, in which the monster becomes a genuine character in the tale, posing a threat to his creator. Victor had been thinking about the monster in the back of his mind up until now. The monster is making an appearance in Victor's life. Because the city gates are locked when Victor arrives, he must wait outside the city in Secheron until the gates are reopened at daybreak. It is at this point that he learns he has been away from home for six years and that two years have passed since the creation of his monster.
