Omega Summoner

Even if the boss monster is controlled by the player named Equinox, they can still defeat him as long as they can hit their attacks. Who better to do that than the first ranked player who is known to not miss?

“Compute the victory percentage of the contestants.” Mr. Atlas asked Deus.

[Current winning chance of the contestants: 13.55%] .

“How did an almost 80% chance of victory drop down to that level?” Mr. Atlas asked his super AI.

[Individual Equinox survived the attack due to pure chance as the last hit did not deal a critical strike. If that were to happen then the event would have ended there.]

“I see. Virtual Reality is indeed unpredictable despite being a game. Sometimes being unlucky is really what changes one’s fate.” Mr. Atlas stated as he relayed his orders to his subordinates.

=====

Six different arrows are headed towards the King of Twilight Hay-lale’s head. All six arrow have different target areas, but they mostly kept the same arc. With the King of Twilight Hay-lale busy with giving power to the Herald of Doom, the players thought that their victory is assured.

Just as the arrows reached the two-meter mark before the head of the King of Twilight Hay-lale, a magic circle appeared in mid-air. The magic circle had the image of a blob like monster inscribed on it. The players thought that the monster would be fully summoned as the souls of the previous six monsters did enter the King of Twilight Hay-lale.

“Summon: Black Ocean Slime” The King of Twilight Hay-lale muttered.

The magic circle of the summon fully formed but the Black Ocean Slime did not get fully summoned in the real world. Instead, a tendril of the Black Ocean Slime slipped out of the magic circle and shielded the King of Twilight Hay-lale from the hail of arrows. The Black Ocean Slime’s tendril the retreated back to the Soul Chamber once its duty was complete.

Not only the audience but the contestants are utterly flabbergasted of what happened. How could a summon not fully materialize into the real world and only port some parts of its body. The confusion is real with the whole community as that should have been impossible because an incomplete summoning magic circle is still an incomplete magic circle.

Incomplete magic circles are chaotic in nature and could either be really strong to the point of creating a disaster or really weak that it can only summon a small mana fart. It could also potentially endanger the soulbounds as they could have mana backlash from the incomplete magic circle, yet they have been proven wrong right now.

All of Pandemonium actually saw an incomplete magic circle be activated without much difficulty. In fact, Adrian did not think that what he did is extraordinary because he only modified the magic circle using what he learned as a Scribe. He can also easily keep the magic circle stable because it is powered using his own soul.

If her were to do this to an elemental magic spell, then it would really be a true incomplete magic circle. In essence, the outer part of the summoning magic circle might look incomplete but the essence of it is perfect. One would need complete understanding of the summoning magic system to even attempt something like this.

“This is the reason why Big Brother is a pain in the butt to deal with. He might not have three soulbounds around him, but the way he uses summoning magic makes it seem that he is still fighting with all six of his soulbounds.” Creepysoo uttered with a tired expression, but he is still hoping that they can still win.

Whether he likes it or not, he wants to at least beat Adrian in a battle. He has yet to win against him in a serious match. He actually regretted that he challenged Adrian in a serious match before this contest but at the same time he is a wall that needs to be vaulted or destroyed.

“Summon: Twilight Harmony Dragon” The King of Twilight Hay-lale stated as a magic circle appeared behind the players.

The players did not need to know what will happen if they were in the direct line of sight of the magic circle as they all evaded with all their might. A few seconds later, a beam of light and darkness energy suddenly passed through the magic circle. If they did not listen to their gut feeling, then they would have been eliminated by now.

“I can still do it! I am a berserker after all!” Sveto shouted as he charged fearlessly towards the King of Twilight Hay-lale.

“Summon: Sunburst Yatagarasu” The King of Twilight Hay-lale stated as a magic circle appeared below Sveto’s feet, but he quickly dodges the upcoming attack. He thought it was an attack though, but it is actually just a burst of light directed at King of Twilight Hay-lale to heal about 1% of his health.

With Sveto now airborne, he cannot easily dodge anything that is coming his way. The King of Twilight Hay-lale might not have a visible face right now but Sveto knew that the player controlling the boss monster is smirking.

“Summon: Unbound Black Frost Fenrir” The King of Twilight Hay-lale stated as a large magic circle appeared just above Sveto’s head.

As soon as the magic circle appeared, Sveto tried to block the attack as he thought it would be a beam like attack or a claw, but he did not expect something more horrific. A jaw filled with extremely sharp fangs came out of the magic circle and chomped at Sveto without mercy.

The proud warrior Sveto is the first to be killed through being eaten by the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir. Some of the audience could not even try seeing what happened to him as it is graphic. The moment particles of light came out of the mouth of the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir, his jaw receded back to the magic circle.

As if Sveto did not die, the death of one of the eight remaining challengers looked so insignificant. Even the audience did not know how to react as they should be rooting for the challengers to defeat the enemy as they are the chosen heroes after all.

“One down. Seven to go. But let me drive away the one that is difficult to deal with.” The King of Twilight Hay-lale stated.

“Summon: Undying Abyss Wraith.” Adrian muttered as seven magic circles appeared.

The seven magic circles are of the same runes and depictions. The magic circle appeared to be attached to each of the players. They thought that the magic circles would explode but they learned its true purpose as someone screamed.

“What are these chains!?” Apolaki shouted as he tried to cut off the chains that came out of the magic circle attached to him.

Despite trying to cut he chains that came out of a magic circle using his Kris, the chains did not break. In the end, the red crystal appeared out of the magic circle and trapped him in that pocket dimension for a specific amount of time.

Adrian specifically chose Apolaki to be sealed because there is still one skill that is affecting him. A spiritual sword is still attached inside of his soul and the only way to activate it would be for Apolaki to land a clean hit on him. He needed to buy enough time for the skill to wear off or make sure that Apolaki will not hit him even with a simple tap.

“A weapon that accumulates spiritual damage by the amount of damage that the one marked has received. Scary when it comes to boss monsters, but players will not be easy targets.” Adrian thought as he also disabled the secret magic circle that he conjured on his palm.

“Summon: Myriad Colors Tiger King.” The King of Twilight Hay-lale actually attached the magic circle on his palm and only chanted quietly. The other six magic circles that appeared are actually just dupes to hide the real thing. Using Kimat’s ability to easily bend light, he made copies of the summoning magic circle that Charon has.

As Adrian is about to choose another target, a spear is suddenly thrusting towards his head. In just a split second, he managed to dodge the attack that was made by none other than Frey. If his domain is not active, then he might have not easily dodged the attack, but his opponents get lowered stats inside.

“Are you sure that you should be aiming at me when the one that you need to stop is above you?” The King of Twilight Hay-lale stated but Frey did not reply as he is focused on the task at hand.

“Pocket of Twilight!” The King of Twilight Hay-lale suddenly muttered as he got absorbed by a star that has golden color but an outer ring of darkness.

As soon as the King of Twilight Hay-lale vanished, the Herald of Doom has finally finished collecting enough energy from the surroundings.
