Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 244: According to Plan (Bonus)

The previous day.

”What did you say?” Vivian widened her eyes. After calling Nathan to congratulate him, she didnʼt expect Nathan to have such an unreasonable demand.

”Yes. Iʼm sure you have heard about it as well, Master… about the organization that has been watching the academy.”

”I know, but why do you want to join such an organization?”

”There are four reasons… I mean, three reasons.”

”Oi! Do you think I donʼt know what reason you dismiss? Be serious!” Vivianʼs eyebrows twitched. ”If you feel unsatisfied, you can just tell me. I can do that much for my students. I donʼt want you to do something this reckless!

No. Why would you even do something like this in the first place? This is unlike you.”

”Unlike me, huh?” Nathan smiled wryly. ”As I said, there are three reasons. This organization most likely consisted of elites. They might even be stronger than anyoneʼs expectation.

”If I can gain their support by becoming their member, it means I can take advantage of their network and strength to both protect myself and crush this terrorist organization.

”Last but not least, you have always wanted me to have an influence that can protect me, right? I believe this organization is perfect. Thatʼs why Iʼll become a double agent for both sides.”

”This is not like you, Nathan. If itʼs the usual you, you would have stayed away from trouble. This reckless thing might get you killed. This is different from your usual composed and rational way of thinking!” Vivian bit her lips.

”No. Even if I try to escape from this problem, will I be able to do that, Master? Will they leave me alone? I know more than anyone that my life will be filled with trouble because of one simple reason. Itʼs simply because I can only summon beasts. That alone will fill my life with an unlimited amount of trouble.

”Rather than just letting the problem come to me, Iʼd rather get an upper hand first!” Nathan looked Vivian in the eyes as if he had made a decision.

Vivian bit her lips. She wanted to stop Nathan, but it looked like he was determined to do it. If she didnʼt give the permission, Nathan would do it in one way or another.

”You…” Vivian was so frustrated that if this wasnʼt in the school, she would break a thing or two.

Nathan raised one finger. ”And because of it, I hope you can fulfill one request of mine.”

”What is it?” Vivian wanted to reject it right away, but soon calmed down. If Nathan had thought this through, it meant he had enough preparation to guarantee his success.

”Among your familiars, is there someone who can kill a person from a distance? Preferably someone strong and can stay not far from me when observing me. Even though I have some confidence, I need some assurance. This is the only way for me to protect myself. Of course, I donʼt need any more protection if my plan succeeds.”

Vivian thought for a moment. ”That would be Silvania. Her power is much stronger than Alishaʼs and she is also a bow user.”

”Thatʼs great. Can you call her for me?”

Vivian nodded.

Silvania was clueless about what Nathan wanted, but Nathan only gave her two orders.

First of all, she had to maintain a certain distance from him starting the next day. She would follow him and stalk him, if possible, trying to figure out whatever he was planning to do.

The second order was, ”Kill the opponent if I raise both of my hands as if Iʼm trying to surrender.”

Silvania remembered those two orders as she pointed her bow at this woman who threatened Nathan. She was already uncomfortable with how this woman treated the person she recognized.

However, she couldnʼt kill her yet because Nathan hadnʼt given the sign.

Still, the first order allowed her to find out about the letter. That was why when Nathan went to the back of the hall, she positioned herself in a place where she could kill this woman right away.

This was the assurance Nathan was talking about. As long as Silvania was here, Nathan could do something a bit reckless.

But Nathan might have a miscalculation.

”!!!” Silvaniaʼs body trembled as she saw another person appearing out of nowhere.

ʼA blonde? She is actually much stronger than that assassin? No. This kind of level… itʼs similar or stronger than the mistress.

ʼNo way. The young masterʼs prediction is actually true? This organization really has someone, while young, but her strength is approaching the level of the Frexia Academyʼs sage.

ʼStill, she looks like she is only in her late twenties… Who—!ʼ She abruptly stopped as she thought about a person. ʼDonʼt tell me. This woman is…ʼ

As she was realizing the identity of the woman, the latter was saying to Nathan, ”It seems you are trying to enter the Sleeping Garden. But donʼt you think your method is too excessive?”

Nathan gulped down. Everything turned out to go according to his expectation.

”I have to do it even if I donʼt want to.” Nathan shook his head calmly. ”I apologize if you feel offended by it, but I donʼt plan to throw my life away.”

”In that case, I will ask you a different question. Why do you want to join the Sleeping Garden?”

”Do I even need to answer that question? You should have seen through my intentions.” Nathan smirked.

”Leader…” The assassin looked worried, thinking the leader would fall for Nathanʼs trick.

”One last question. Why do you think I should accept you?”

Nathan raised two fingers. ”My strength might be small, but I still have my own uniqueness. And the fact that you approach me instead of anyone else means Iʼm somewhat special in your eyes.

”The second reason is information. As I said earlier, I can give you information from the academy or even the intention of the Holy Kingdom. Accepting me will definitely ease your burden, and eventually, I will become a strong force within the organization as well.”

The leader remained silent for a few seconds before snapping her fingers.

All of a sudden, cracks appeared in the air, creating a dome-shaped crack and isolating all three of them inside this crack.

”!!!” Silvania was startled because she couldnʼt see Nathan, but these cracks suddenly shattered like glasses, and all three of them, including Nathan, were gone.

Silvania lowered her bow, muttering, ”Does this mean everything work according to plan?”
