Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 316: Arrows

”We should head to the bandit hideout right now,” said Eliot while looking around.

”What should we do, big brother?” Lisa asked. ”They should be in their position, so we should move now.”

Lees nodded. ”Yeah. Letʼs go to the enemyʼs hideout. However, make sure youʼre extremely careful. Thereʼs a high chance that the enemies have figured out our location, so we canʼt let our guard down.”

The two nodded.

While walking, Eliot couldnʼt help but click his tongue. ”In the end, weʼre the bait, huh?”

”Thereʼs no use in complaining right now. Besides, itʼs better to shut your mouth. Saying things like that is the same as letting your enemies know your plan. Iʼm saying this as your mentor. You are simply too reckless.” Less frowned. Eliot clicked his tongue one more time, but he didnʼt continue running his mouth.

Less could only sigh. Lisa also remained quiet most of the time.

”Still, as they reported, there are really no aliens around here. I have been keeping my vigilance, but I canʼt see anything.” Less looked around while furrowing his eyebrows.

”Should we summon our familiars as a precaution?”

”Thatʼs what Iʼd like to do, but Iʼm not so sure right now.” Less shook his head. ”For now, maintain vigilance and donʼt summon your familiar yet. They might suspect anything.”

The two nodded their heads.

However, it didnʼt take too long for numerous arrows to suddenly cover the sky.

”!!!” Less raised his head and said, ”Enemy attack!”

”Shield!” Lisa raised both hands above her head. Her Ena started to spread and solidify, creating an umbrella.

Less pulled out both of his swords, while Eliot held his spear with both hands.

The arrows hit the barrier. Unfortunately, the arrows werenʼt strong enough to destroy the barriers. Still, with so many arrows being released at the same time, it still scratched the barrier quite a bit.

All three of them immediately summoned their familiars, ready to fight.

Less raised his head, as if staring at the person who seemed to command them.

ʼThis place is surrounded by small hills, which made it easier for the archers to take aim. As expected, they have extensive knowledge about the terrain. And most likely…ʼ Less squinted his eyes.

There were a lot of people standing on top of the three hills around them. However, the most important targets would be the five people who had Ena in their bodies.

The one leading them had a rather robust build, showing that he had been training for a long time. He was holding a sword at his waist.

Because the vice captain joined them not too long ago, there was no wanted poster of himself. The baron also didnʼt have his face. Hence, they truly had no portrait of him.

Still, the fact that his face wasnʼt in the wanted poster and his form was like that of a knight, they could easily confirm that this guy was the vice captain.

”So, youʼre the vice captain of the barony, Rain.” Lees squinted his eyes. ”I have never thought a knight like you would join a bandit. You are still young, not even twice our age. Yet you end up destroying your life with such a bad decision. The baron has told us youʼre reckless; I guess I understand why he deems you not qualified.”

When he heard those words, Rain shouted in anger. ”Iʼm reckless? Theyʼre the ones who donʼt know my true worth. I am a man of much higher caliber than they think I am. To think they would think Iʼm not worthy of the captain position. I am not worthy compared to that old man?”

”The fact that youʼre spouting all this nonsense is the reason they think you are not worthy. Unfortunately, it doesnʼt seem like you donʼt understand it.” Lees sighed.

”Iʼm not worthy? You must have heard the rumor about the mature class alien that has died recently, right?”

”Are you saying youʼre the culprit?” Lees squinted his eyes.

”Of course I am. I have grown stronger. To think that I would be treated much better than a bunch of nobles who donʼt know anything! They are just fools.” Rain clenched his fists.

”Your action just proves their points. In the end, you will end up causing a lot of deaths because of your stupid decision.” Lees shook his head helplessly, disappointed by him.

”Do you think I donʼt dare to kill you?” Rain raised his hand.

His familiars appeared around him. Other summoners also followed suit, showing all their familiars.

Lisa and Eliot were frowning, fully aware that they would be in trouble. The archers were also ready to release the second volley. At this rate, they would have to spend a lot of Ena just to block their attacks.

In fact, they were wondering where Nathan and Serafina were.

ʼWe have been buying a lot of time for them, but they havenʼt come at all… Are they abandoning us due to their numbers? But we have an even number of summoners. As long as we are able to kill at least one of them, the battlefield will turn to our favor.ʼ Lisa frowned.

”I donʼt need to talk with you guys anymore!” Rain snorted. ”Youʼre going to die here. Ah, wait. The woman wonʼt die. She canʼt die, even if she wants it. Hahahahaha!”

Those words made Lees squint his eyes.

”What? Youʼre angry? Sadly for you, you wonʼt be able to do anything!” Rain shouted, ”Archers. Shoot them. All summoners, get ready and overpower them!”

When they were taking aim, Lees noticed something since he was looking up. He couldnʼt help but smile. ”Since I have known what youʼre doing, itʼs time for you to die.”

”Me? Die? You—!” Rain wanted to beat them down with words, but it was futile. Light trails rose into the sky and spread, showing their number.

Rain raised his head, noticing the Ena fluctuation. He shouted, ”Watch out!”

All of them turned around and saw the incoming Ena bullets. They were trying to shield themselves, not realizing that there was a trick behind these bullets.
