Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 112: Gaslighting (Bonus)

It didnʼt take too long for Alavenyaʼs team to reach Nathanʼs location. They had been searching for quite a while, so they looked distressed a lot, especially Mando.

It seemed Mando was the one who had been complaining the whole time.

Of course, they were shocked to find Fenrir and Anubis. They had heard a rumor about a summoner having beasts as his familiars, but it turned out Nathan was the person in the rumor.

Mandoʼs face turned pale as he realized the true value of this summoner called Nathan. And not only Alavenya had disrespected him by shoving him to the students from the Retishia Academy, but they were also in this much danger.

”Are you alright?” Mando hurriedly checked their conditions. ”Weʼll bring you to the doctor and get your wounds healed right away!”

Nathan grabbed Mandoʼs head to show his displeasure. He shook his head while saying in a disappointed tone, ”We donʼt need it.”

”But your injuries…” Mando was terrified. If this matter was heard by both the Frexia Academy and the Dragon King, it would cause a huge problem. After all, the one who recommended Nathan and Selena was the Dragon King, which meant the one responsible for sending them here was the principal of the Frexia Academy, the man known as the Sage.”

Nathan stood up, his feet shaking as if he were enduring the pain. ”Since you are here, the mature class alien must have been taken down, so weʼll just take our leave. To think that the Chaotic Cat organization would come…”

”What?! Chaotic Cat?” Mando gasped.

Alavenya looked shocked as well. It was a famous organization because their aims were to kidnap talented summoners. A lot of people had been coming to recruit her, so she thought the Chaotic Cat came for her.

If they failed to subjugate the mature class alien, these terrorists would create an opportunity for them to capture her.

Even if their aims were not her but Nathan because of his unique familiars, it didnʼt change the fact that it was their fault to let such an organization come close.

Nathan turned to Mando and politely said, ”Iʼm thankful for your kind action, but the mission is over. Itʼs time for us to report to the Dragon King and receive our rewards.”

”This…” Mando wanted to persuade them and solve this misunderstanding so that the Dragon King didnʼt know that they had neglected their duty.

However, Nathan took this opportunity to glare at Alavenya while saying, ”You thought this mission was to meet you? Has your fame gone to your head for you to assume that every single person who wants to meet you is because they want to recruit you?”

”You—!” Her subordinates looked like they were trying to protect her, but Alavenya raised her arm to stop them. She bit her lips, feeling humiliated.

Nathan snorted and continued walking. Selena walked beside him while covering some of her wounds.

Their bodies were swaying left and right as they struggled to just walk.

Mando kept glancing back and forth between Nathan and Alavenya.

”Young miss. I might be overstepping my bounds by saying this, but your father has always said that the easiest to kill an opponent is when they think theyʼre stronger than you. After all, people stronger than you tend to lower their guards, believing they can defeat you as they like.”

After Mando gave that message, he politely lowered his head and said, ”Iʼll try to talk to them. Iʼm afraid that if the Dragon King hears this, he will definitely be angry.

”Besides, we canʼt do anything to them because that lad is the rumored unique summoner. If we do something, there is a high chance a war between the Soaring Dragon Mercenary Group and the Frexia Academy will begin.

”Thatʼs why Iʼll take my leave and persuade them.” Mando then turned around, chasing after Nathan and Selena.

Alavenya looked down, her expression darkening and her hands clenching into fists. She was too ashamed to say anything.

The people next to her could see her body shaking as if there were a lot of things she wanted to say but couldnʼt because the other party was right.

It was her negligence that caused this situation. If Nathan wasnʼt here and the Chaotic Cat still attacked them, the raid would fail and hundreds of soldiers would die.

Little did he know, Nathan was actually smiling.

”Dear students! Respected students!” Mando caught up to them while saying out loud, ”Please. Let me bring you back to the camp so that we can treat you. Iʼll reprimand the young miss, so please—!”

Mando suddenly stopped talking when he saw Nathan having a hard time containing his smile. ”Eh?”

Nathan chuckled. ”Do you think Iʼm mad for real?”

”Eh?” Mandoʼs heart sank. Their wounds were gradually disappearing, causing Mando to shift his gaze to Anubis. It turned out they could heal themselves this whole time, but why didnʼt they do it before? The answer was simple.

Nathan said, ”Well, her father wants me to recruit her in exchange for the dragon blood, so yeah… I just do it.”

Mando dropped his jaw. ”But if you were trying to recruit her, wouldnʼt it be bad to humiliate her like that? Even I would be angry if you humiliated them for no reason…”

”We have received permission from the Dragon King. He allows me to do anything I want as long as I can recruit her to the academy, so please donʼt get angry because my plan is not over yet.

”Hahaha. Still, gaslighting is truly the best. Itʼs perfect for someone like her who has been chasing away others because she is freaking talented.

”And I know you donʼt like this, but I will have to request something from you even if I need to ask it in the name of the Dragon King. I need you to do something.”

”What?” Mandoʼs eyebrows twitched. These two students were much bolder than he originally thought. And to think that the Dragon King would give them permission. ”You… You… What are you trying to do?”

Nathan smirked. ”Scamming the Dragon King.”
