Munchkin of the Summoning Academy

chapter 17



Foreshadowing (2)

Those who left Jungang-ro headed to the widest stadium in the academy.

A battlefield used for group battles during exams and events.

The spectator seats stacked on top of each other surround it, so it’s perfect for viewing.

As I walked, I found Christine and Maria not far away.

It looks like it’s sticking together as usual.

Being conscious of the gaze around her, she was unable to approach her, but Medusha narrowed the distance at will.

The same goes for the previous mockery of Elpentus.

It is basically a good summons, but it is strangely difficult to control.

“Maria, Christine!”

“Medusa-san…”

Maria, who had an anxious expression on her face when she saw her older brother climbing up the dungeon, struggled to laugh.

We headed to a relatively quiet spot in the crowd.

As if a rumor had spread anywhere, onlookers gathered from all directions.

Christine, who had just taken a seat, opened the book and summoned a summons.

“Tangerine cake.”

“Keeping!”

An orange-colored pet with a hat appeared with a group of lights.

It has a low rank, but it is quite rare.

A body with a soft texture that shows the inside clearly.

Slowly floating in the air, it settles on Christine’s hand.

Christine summoned an additional straw and put it in the guy’s body.

Then, it slowly sucks the contents inside.

It looks like a high-viscosity fruit juice, but I was a little curious about the taste.

With each sip, the pet’s size gets smaller and smaller.

On the other hand, Maria, who sits next to her, continues to be restless.

Michael Westwall is her older brother.

So, you must know his skills better than anyone else…

The current reaction is a bit disconcerting.

‘Westwall’s heir wouldn’t have waged an unwinnable battle…’

Christine said in a voice not worried at all, as if she had noticed Maria’s sign.

In fact, he probably thinks that the real Michael doesn’t matter anyway.

“Maria. What are you so worried about? Your brother is really counting.”

“Still, there are 17 opponents…”

After receiving the duel request, Elpentus called all his club members.

Michael, as the heir of a famous family, has a magical amount that far exceeds the average, but…

Yes, unlike me, it is at a common sense level.

While the spectators, including us, were each predicting victory.

From the top of the dungeon, professors in charge of summoning combat techniques were coming up.

High school students in 3rd grade or higher can compete in a formal duel with mutual agreement.

And those professors will serve as witnesses and judges of the duel.

In other words, it is impossible to run away or pretend to be ignorant of losing a duel.

“Up to 2 summons can be used each. Simultaneous summoning is also allowed. Of course, if you attack the summoner, you will be disqualified on the spot.

“I agree.”

“A little, but… I just do it.”

Elpentus, who had been complaining a little, nodded his head heavily.

All the rules are secretly on the side of Michael, but he can’t complain about a 17-to-1 fight.

I would have expected this to some extent.

Those who understood the rules of the duel quickly took out their summoned beasts.

It unfolds lavishly, as if considering the opponent’s S-rank summons.

“Take out all two from the start!”

“If we don’t completely surround ourselves, we lose.”

The guardian of the western border, the Westwall family has a total of 3 S-rank summons.

Among them, the one that Michael inherited is the Lightning Bolt, the grouse of swiftness.

It is famous for its outstanding speed and firepower among the S ranks, but it is weak as it is.

The Elpentus side intends to completely encircle the opponent with the number of heads ahead.

A and B ranks of pets filling the dungeon in an instant.

When the number exceeded 30, Persia trembled as if frightened.

“Oh, that’s a lot…”

“But what happens to the out-of-court judgment in the case of flying summons? If you go out of the arena, you will be eliminated immediately?”

“No. Off-site is only recognized when the body of the pet touches the ground. So, it’s not particularly disadvantageous to a pet that can fly. However, if you go too far, you lose by foul…”

While I was explaining to Medusha.

Michael summoned the summons as if responding to everyone’s expectations.

“Lightning Bolt!”

“Kik!”

A new type that strikes like lightning from the sky.

An eagle-shaped beast with stiff feathers guards Michael’s face.

It’s too small for an S rank. At least a little bigger than a normal eagle?

However, the magical power and intimidation felt from him is overwhelming.

He probably wouldn’t be lacking in fighting skills too much.

If only one summon had been used, Michael would have been easily crushed…

Simultaneous summons are possible in this duel.

Therefore, the second summon that will make up for the shortcomings of Lightning Bolt is very important.

Michael is in a position to make 1+1 to 4 or higher.

“No matter how good the compatibility, I still have one A-rank summoned…”

At the moment when Medusha tilted her head curiously, Michael turned the bookshelf.

As if enjoying people’s gaze, he summons them with exaggerated movements.

“Come out, Goliath.”

“Huh? Was there such a summons…?”

As if it were the first time she had ever heard of a summoned beast, Maria swallowed her breath.

There were also spleen numbers.

While everyone was raising their expectations, a large figure appeared above the dungeon.

About 5 meters tall.

It’s not that thin either.

Enormous muscles cover the large area without gaps.

“Lewis, that’s…”

“Where the hell did you get it?”

rock giant!

It is an S-Rank summoned animal that was thought to be extinct a long time ago.

The Westwall family had only three S-rank summons, including Lightning Bolt… Have you just signed a new contract?

Facing everyone’s astonishment, Michael kindly explained.

“I had a hard time capturing it during the short vacation period. Still, this wasn’t what I expected, was it?”

“You caught it. Don’t be shy, contractor.”

As if slightly displeased, the giant turned his head and gave him a pint glass.

It looks like it hasn’t been fully trained yet.

As a result, there are only two S ranks in Michael’s camp.

Besides, he looks very strong even when he pretends to be, so he has a good balance.

While the players on the El Pentus side were shaking violently, the rock giant began to ask questions in a low voice.

Michael answers them one by one with a generous expression.

“Are they a vile evil?”

“No doubt about it.”

“There are more enemies than allies.”

“Yeah. You can see it.”

“What will you gain from this fight?”

“Glory? No money anyway.”

“Is this a fight against the giants?”

“no.”

If they are S-rank summons, they all have high self-esteem.

So, it’s quite common to fight according to the conditions…

I’ve never seen them scrutinize one by one like that.

After that, Goliath, who had received a confirmation for a long time, turned around with a slightly absurd expression.

“I’m sure there will be someone who satisfies all of these conditions. They’re really cowardly, clumsy, and bad guys. Good. I’ll lend you my strength just this one time.”

“Thank you too. Shall we start soon?”

While the referees at their respective seats set the start signal.

Elpentus exclaimed coldly.

“Wait! Let’s all summon the summons one by one…”

“Stop. The number of summons already summoned cannot be accepted. Failure to do so will result in disqualification.”

It would be difficult for even Michael to deal with two S-Rank summons at once, so it was meant to be a long-term battle, but…

The judges were concerned about it and restrained it like a sword.

Christine, who had swallowed all the contents of Tangerine Rice Cake, summoned him back.

The inside is hollow and transparent.

It will be replenished once you absorb the magic power.

When he looked back again while restraining Medusha, who seemed to be asking for one, the judges started counting down.

Sensing that the allies were anxious, Elpentus cried out in a snap.

“Don’t be afraid! The loot has only increased!”

“Lightning bolt. You know?”

“Cook!”

From the other side, Michael, who grinned, gave the instructions in advance.

Eventually, as the slowly decreasing number converges to 0, beep! And the loud start signal rang out.

Thirty-four Elpentus’s summons were quickly running to their respective positions.

The lightning bolt that soared into the sky used his ultimate skill.

“thunderstorm!”

A large amount of magical power flowing through the link.

Hundreds of thunderbolts fell like rain from the sky colored with thunder.

At first glance, the power might not be a joke… It’s really too fast for such a thing.

The Elpentus side summons have not yet left the starting point.

A summoned beast famous for the speed at the highest level of S rank.

When a thunderbolt fell from the sky and struck the enemy camp, the figures that had turned into black charcoal fell into the rain.

A particularly effective attack against the same flying-type pets.

It goes without saying that the higher you are, the easier it is to be struck by lightning.

In addition, summoned creatures that can fly are usually light in body and weak in strength, so such an attack is even more lethal.

It would be a bit heavy for a slow starter like Medusha.

While I am feeling a sense of crisis.

Minions that survived the thunderstorm pursued the Lightning Bolt.

At first glance, it seems that the summons on the ground have no other way to use their hands…

If you get to rank A or B, you have at least one anti-aircraft skill.

The grouse, pursued by them, returned to the back of the rock giant.

“Cheap!”

“Ugh.”

Goliath, while showing a slightly thick reaction, blocks the attack.

It is an arrow that is automatically guided, and the blade of the wind collided with the body and scattered in vain.

The anti-aircraft of the summons were not so powerful because the accuracy was prioritized.

But even considering that, it seems really sturdy.

“Goliath, it’s your turn.”

“Don’t rush.”

The guy who raised his right arm faithfully even though he was always grumbling.

The magic that flowed through the link was sucked into the giant’s fist.

Goliath hits the ground without hesitation!

With a huge impact, the ground was toppled in an instant except where he was standing.

That dagger doesn’t even get scratched by any attack…

It’s like a skill to control the ground itself.

The great earthquake that occurred from the giant’s fist stops just before it swept away the spectators and the opposing summoners.

Goliath didn’t control his power, but the referees stopped him.

Flying summons were all destroyed by Lightning Bolt’s thunderstorm, and the rest were swept away by Goliath’s great earthquake.

Now there are only five left on the pitch.

No, in fact, calling it a stadium is something else.

The stadium, which was shattered by the great impact, became an archipelago of large and small fragments.

Unusually lucky or fast guys are barely surviving on the shards.

“Nonsense…”

“It’s a chance! Two consecutive S-Rank ultimates. It’s already like a corpse!”

Elpentus prepares for summoning while shouting like a seizure.

But the referee quickly intervened and stopped it.

“Elpentus, Jeffrey, Henry. Elimination!”

“The dropouts don’t use summoning!”

Michael, who had almost exhausted his magical powers, was barely maintaining a standing posture.

A lightning bolt from behind Goliath dropped all the pets standing on the fragments.

Thanks for the power loss.

It took less than two minutes from start to finish.

“All the El Pentus teams are eliminated! Michael Westwall wins!”

“No what…”

“President!”

Michael, who had collapsed from exhaustion of magical powers, got up again with the support of the student members.

Once the Lightning Bolt is reverse-summoned, he faces Goliath and grins.

On the other side of the devastated arena, the referees were arresting the Elpentus teammates.

He steals the Summoner’s Book, steals the card, and throws the empty book to the ground.

Seeing some fairly neutral professors do that, it seems it wasn’t really a joke.

“Come in front of the students who have been deprived of their summons!”

“I’ll give them all back, so take it slow! Check it out one by one and hand it out.”

Best speed and firepower, and formidable firepower and defense.

It’s a combination with no weaknesses.

Michael, who was barely able to control himself, said looking up at Goliath.

“Come on, let’s go! I’ll send you back to your home dimension.”

“What? Chairman?”

“Isn’t it an official contract?”

Not only the aides of the student council but also Goliath looked slightly surprised.

I don’t think I could have imagined that I would release myself so easily.

A voice that trembled uneasily for its gigantic size asked, filled with disbelief.

“Are you really going to let me go?”

“Yeah. As you said before. You want to go back to your hometown, a rocky mountain where there is nothing, and die lonely old.”

Michael, who was speaking with a lot of sarcasm, secretly turned his gaze away.

Goliath’s eyes, who had been watching him, moved along with him.

Spectators filled the perimeter of the stadium.

Not only the spectator seats, but also the aisles outside are already full.

The sound of chanting Michael’s name has not ceased since before.

Envy and envy are everywhere.

Goliath found himself standing in the middle of a heated atmosphere.

Michael, who looked like he was going to see it, smiled.

“You said it was an honor.”

“Ummm…”

“Of course, if you want to stay by my side, I won’t be sorry for you. If you diligently search other dimensions, you won’t find a giant who can become your wife. Of course, if you want to become extinct like this, I won’t stop you.”

“Please be a little more respectful. Contractor.”

“If only a few conditions were modified.”

Then, their fists clashed very slightly.

Goliath was very careful not to crush his summoner.

Persia seems to have been shocked by the world outside the ice and snow hell.

Maria, startled, barely got up from her seat.

“When will I get another summons like that…”

“I won, too. Don’t worry about that.”

Christine follows her.

I checked the timetable to make sure the bell tower was ringing.

I had a lot of free time until the next class…

I almost lost my lunch break watching the duel.

I’ll have to hurry up a bit to eat before the next class.

As we greeted Christine and Maria and headed to the dining room, I could feel Michael’s gaze from afar.

What did Maria say at home?

I’ve been paying close attention ever since.

“Well, those two are going to be a bit of an awkward match.”

“As expected, Sir Count’s learning place… The level is high.”

Medusha and Persia shared their feelings.

I left the room with my head slightly bowed.
