Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 69  Warning

Rudeus and Flora were facing each other in the corridor.

Rudeus raised his voice, asking, "What are you doing, Flora?"

"What am I doing? I don't know why you're asking me this question. I'm standing in front of you," replied Flora in a playful tone.

"You know what I'm talking about. Do you think I'm oblivious to your message when you recruit him to the student council in front of everyone?"

"Oh my." Flora grinned. "He is a citizen of the Azilia Kingdom. As the representative of the kingdom, I have to take care of my own people, right? Don't tell me, does the Liaystian Kingdom plan to snatch my people?"

"Your people?! I discovered him first!" He gnashed his teeth.

"And yet, you did nothing. This is the difference between us. You can scheme however you want, but that's the reason for your slow speed. The Azilia Kingdom chooses to be decisive when making a decision."

"You…" Rudeus' breathing became rough as he had a hard time to calm down. Nathan's value had just skyrocketed the moment he defeated Noelle. No matter what they said, Nathan had both the uniqueness and the strength to join the student council.

Connection and wealth were something he could build from now on.

Flora started walking as she said, "We both are royalties. We know that no matter how good a sovereign can be, they still need to be calculative and have the necessary ruthlessness.

"You can play to be the best all you want, but in the end, strength reigns supreme. Besides, I'm not the one who you should be worried about. If you are going to play your scheme against him, I might not even need to play my cards.

"Just remember that humanity is under an alliance in order to fight those aliens. However, it doesn't mean that we have to play nice with each other. You can focus on that petty rivalry of yours with that successor of the Blacksmith Guild, I'll take care of Selena Ashton and Nathan. They are my subjects after all."

Rudeus' body was twitching, and his body was distorted. What was more frustrating was that he couldn't even reply to a single word she said.

…

August sat down alone in his room, remembering everything that happened during the day.

He still remembered how Selena dragged Nathan away. It was clear that no one could approach him like this.

At the same time, he had heard about Selena's relationship with her family. It meant that while Nathan and Selena were friends, Selena couldn't afford to give him anything.

In that case, his method was simple. Unlike Rudeus who had to fight against Flora, the Blacksmith Guild was a neutral faction.

That was why the first thing he did after sorting his thoughts was write a letter to home.

…

As everyone expected, Nathan used the favor so that Serena would teach him.

Due to the invitation, he would probably get flocked by a lot of people. The only way for him to escape from them was training with Selena.

If Selena was displeased, they would think that Nathan would feel the same. That was why they had to be careful when approaching him.

Besides, Selena was more well-versed in politics compared to him. If they approached him with hideous intention, Selena should be able to realize it and warn him.

Of course, it didn't change the fact that he intended to learn the explosive Ena from Selena. It would be a great addition to his current fighting power.

"Is this how you do it?" Nathan asked while forming a sphere with his Ena. The flow was much more violent than what he usually produced when making a bullet.

"No. If you do it that way, it'll dissolve—" Selena couldn't even finish her words before the sphere vanished.

"…" Nathan scratched the back of his head. "I guess it's not working yet."

"I believe you can learn it quickly. What you are doing wrong earlier is that you pour out your Ena slightly too late, which causes the flow in one direction to be stronger and neutralize everything. You do it like this." Selena gave another demonstration.

Unlike his sphere that went berserk from the start, Selena created a rather stable flow that gradually turned violent.

Nathan thought for a moment. "So we start with the stable flow first?"

"Yes. You have to maintain that state when you release them. They still need to travel for a certain distance after all."

"No. I'm just thinking if I can change the flow a bit. While it remains stable, I want to put a bit more spin into it so that the penetrative force increases."

"That's…" Selena crossed her arms. "I think it's possible. Something like this?"

Selena raised her hand, forming the sphere again. But after applying more spin, the sphere gradually elongated.

"What? You can do that right away?"

"It's not hard." Selena tilted her head in confusion.

Nathan's eyebrows twitched, wondering if she actually didn't realize she was talented at manipulating Ena.

While they were talking, Noelle suddenly came to the Magic Department, startling the students in the class.

"You are… Noelle Flamante from the third year, right? What are you doing here? This is the class for the first year." The teacher stood on her way, his words gathering the attention of all five people in the Magic Department.

"Is that Noelle Flamante?"

"Why is she here?"

"Is she coming for Nathan? Maybe something like revenge?"

The students were observing her closely. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Noelle took out a paper for the teacher. He was slightly surprised by the content, but he said, "You may go," after inspecting it.

Noelle nodded before walking to Nathan.

Selena frowned. Even though they were not enemies anymore, her instinct was telling her to be on guard against her.

"Junior. I have come as promised." Noelle gave him the paper. "This is the detail. I have handled all the formality as well as received your teacher's permission. The trip should only take about seven days. We'll meet in the morning three days from now. I'll be waiting for you at the school's gate."

"Oh!" Nathan nodded. When he was about to grab the paper, a figure suddenly stepped between them.

It was Selena. She was spreading both of her arms with sweat covering her face, not allowing Noelle to pass.
