Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights

Chapter 72: The Invincibles

Pulling herself out of shock, the mayor quickly called Dean. The moment he picked up the call, she rose to her feet.

”Stop the attack. Make sure neither the boy nor the rest of his family is hurt, by all means!” she ordered fiercely.

”The plans should already be done by now,” Dean replied. The mayor grew pale.

”The Pendragons are asking for him and his family?! How do you explain to them that you killed him without having a dragon in our clouds!”

”What?!” Dean’s eyes narrowed when he heard the mayor say that. He swiftly dialed Scott’s number, sweat beads appearing on his temples.

Meanwhile, Mr. Scott sat in his house, facing the floor-to-ceiling window with a glass of wine in his right hand. He leaned comfortably on a sofa, crossing one leg over the other.

The senior doctor had sent his summon to the scene. Currently, he could see through the eyes of a pale white bat soaring above skyscrapers. It had luminous blue eyes and one short blue horn.

”Just a mile or two and I’ll be there. My toxins should put that brash kid in his place. Still, I need to see how he has been neutralizing my men. Does he have people with him?” Scott whispered when he suddenly noticed a golden object in the air.

In one moment it was a distance away; in the next, the projectile was close. It was a huge arrow, longer than when an adult stretches out both his arms in opposite directions!

And this massive, ballistic-sized arrow crackled intensely with lightning, making it seem like a meteor.

Before Scott could think, the arrow pierced through the soft, leathery skin of his bat and came out from the back of its chest as golden lightning scorched the creature’s insides.

It screeched loudly, a final cry, before crashing on the top of a skyscraper. On the other side, blood came out from Scott’s nose and mouth as his eyes widened to the core with disbelief.

’What was that? Was it him? I was over a mile away and several feet in the air... just how—?!’

His phone rang as his consciousness waned. Scott picked the phone, struggling to place it against his ear as he saw the caller was the director.

”Scott, have you attacked them? Scott! Answer me?!” Dean’s voice roared from the speakers of the phone.

”Run, Dean. H-He’s a monster.” Scott fainted before he could say more.

”Scott? Scott?!” Dean yelled from the other side, a sudden cold enveloping him.

***

Dean and the mayor entered a brightly lit hospital – White Gate Hospital, its name glowing above the several-story building.

It was way past midnight, as the time was clocking towards 2:00 a.m., and the lobby of this large hospital was currently void of people, all except the receptionists and the boy in a singlet leaning down, his face toward the floor.

He sat on the waiting chairs, but the moment Dean and the mayor walked in with some bodyguards, their footsteps made Godfrey lift up his head.

”Is that him?” the mayor asked.

The director nodded, his eyes narrowing as Godfrey rose to his feet and began to approach them with large strides.

He walked with his bare feet, a sign that he wasn’t even able to dress properly, and his top had been vomited on, so he had to remove it.

Seeing Godfrey’s aggressiveness, the head security frowned.

”Constrain him.”

At his orders, two bodyguards in suits dashed out. Godfrey closed in with two quick steps, almost like a run, leaping and grabbing both bodyguards by the face at a speed they couldn’t react to, launching them like toys out of the building.

They flew right past the mayor and the director, shattering the hospital’s glass door and crashing into the vehicles outside!

The absurd strength made the director’s heart pound. He suddenly remembered seeing Godfrey come out with boxing gloves. Only God knew what would happen to his face if Godfrey punched him.

His fears became valid as golden lightning crackled throughout Godfrey’s right arm, his knuckles humming as his eyes, distorted in pain and rage, gleamed.

The head security activated Item Manipulation, forming a translucent shield right before Godfrey. His fist connected with the dome, and instantly cracks spread out as it exploded!

The head security’s eyes went wide. To be able to break his defensive skill with just one blow, Godfrey needed to be as strong as a high-tier!

What this meant was that he faced a dual summoner whose summons were at least two high tiers!

He couldn’t believe there was such a talent in Amazon City and no one knew about it. In that millisecond, he saw Godfrey’s left crackling with the same amount of lightning.

He could see the boy’s mana was low and fluctuating, like a candle about to be snuffed out, but even that little could do devastating damage, as he was talking about the blow of a high tier.

Such a blow could shatter the hood of an armored vehicle. Neither the mayor nor the director would live to see another minute if he did nothing.

A diagram manifested, and a huge nine-foot-tall stork emerged, grabbing Godfrey’s fist and stopping the blow with one foot.

This was the Iron Gale Stork, a rare, top-level high-tier summon with great intelligence and an innate skill to form its own martial technique as it grew older through experience.

Its golden slender legs gleamed like pure gold. The talons of its foot threatened to destroy Godfrey’s hand completely if he thought of making another move.

”It is enough!” the head security bellowed, but inwardly he wondered what they had done to make him sink so deep into such state.

He was fully aware Godfrey was beyond the point of listening, so there was no other choice than to subdue him.

However, that bold thought crumbled as three diagrams flared behind Godfrey. They released three towering golden knights.

Tempest stood in the middle, the tip of his massive greatsword placed against the floor as he rested his gauntleted hands on the pommel of the long hilt.

Mountain stood at his left, Achilles Shield raised a bit up for movement while the longsword was positioned beside it. Clearly, the bulky knight was ready to move.

At the right, Ballista had already drawn his bow fully, the tip gleaming under the ceiling light.

”Great God...!” the head security gasped with trembling eyes, as before him stood a Tri Summoner! An absolute legend, as they stood above dual summoners the same way dual summoners had the advantage over a summoner with just one summon.

The mayor was even more stunned than the head security. She couldn’t believe a Tri Summoner was in her city! Him alone could represent Amazon, and every great deed he did would only make the city even more prosperous.

It would become a city of legacy!

Dean, however, paled.

The mayor clenched her teeth. ’So this is the reason the Pendragons have eyes on him. They want to steal my treasure right from under my nose!’

Instantaneously, she composed herself before a fight would erupt.

”Godfrey, that’s your name, right? I was unaware of all this, and I came to tell you that Amazon General Hospital is currently under surveillance, and their director with his accomplice, Mr. Scott, will rot in jail for attempting to kill your mother, who had served the city for almost two decades.”

”W-What?!” The director was shocked, but the Iron Gale Stork slammed him to the ground, pinning one foot on his head. The cold gleam of its long talons made Dean quiver.

With the last thread of mana gone, Godfrey’s summons were pulled back to the soul space, but he remained standing despite exhaustion clawing at his every thought.

Clearing her throat with a wide, friendly smile, the mayor continued, ”I will make sure there’s a hospital built in honor of what your parents have done for this city, and your mother will be in charge of this hospital. A statue of honor greater than the one that was built before will be made in honor of your father. All this will begin as of today.”

Godfrey squinted. The mayor wasn’t really aware? Was that true? Well, he didn’t see her at his house, and she came by this time of the day, was that out of her good heart toward his family?

Was the destruction of his father’s statue so they could build a new one all along?

”If you attended our school, you can always be close to your mother, and nothing of this sort would repeat itself.”

”That’s a lie! She knew about our plans to kill your mother! She’ll always lean toward the side that gives the advantage; that’s why your father’s statue is being replaced by that of the Pagoda Guild!” he pushed.

Dean bellowed. He didn’t care if the mayor would release him from prison later because the moment he went there, he had lost his position and might never regain it.

It was best they both fell!

The mayor’s eyes widened; even the head security was shocked.

All of a sudden, a voice rang. ”You think you can take my student with your lies.”

Sebastian walked into the hospital. During the time it took Godfrey to get to the hospital, he had called his school, and Edwin had teleported the headmaster to Amazon City.

Seeing him approach, Godfrey couldn’t believe his eyes.

Behind him was his secretary, Evangeline.

”Who are you?” the mayor frowned. Since when did people grow the guts to speak to her in such a manner?

Sebastian smiled faintly. ”I am the headmaster of Manhattan Summoner’s High, Sebastian.”

The mayor’s heart shook. Before her was one of the Invincibles! Invincibles were lord tiers with distinct summons that made them a huge threat to king tiers and invincible to those below them.

There were only a few in the world, and before her stood one of them.
