Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 46: Feast and Newcomer Summoner



Chapter 46: Feast and Newcomer Summoner


I report my victory to Mocchi-san and the others. Then all the guests were happy to see me. It's kind of embarrassing. I'm tired, though, so I log out...and make dinner...a frozen pilaf in the microwave. Unfortunately, I didn't feel like cooking an elaborate meal in my current situation.

I've heard that cooking is somewhat easy in games, but in EO, the concept of the game is a real alternate universe. I guess it would be strange to be able to cook easily in a real other world.

I finished my dinner and logged back in. When I came down from my room, there was still a lot of noise...or rather, people I recognized.

"We're sorry to disturb you"

It's Ruin-san and the others. And there's a man and a woman I don't know. They know that I'm in this inn because of the Return experiment. So they brought the man and woman here.

"You...what? That girl..."

Crow-san looks at Setia. By the way, I never showed her.

"This is the newly summoned elf Setia. Setia, say hello"

"I don't want to"

Oh, that's the first time I've heard a clear refusal.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I feel awkward from that person. I don't want to get to know such a person!"

"Guhaa!?"

Crow-san is badly damaged. I'm not sure I could recover if Setia said something like that to me.

"Then...it can't be helped~"

"You're no good, Crow. You can't look at a girl with evil eyes"

The women are bashing him.

"Wa, Wait! I'm innocent! That's what I look like in the first place"

"Don't look at me"

Setia hid behind my back. Her words and actions again caused a lot of damage.

"You're a complete villain from a distance, Crow-san"

"Ku, no...fine...I...Ion-chan..."

Crow-san looks at Ion with the last hope, but Ion also hides behind me. That action stopped him.

"Let's leave Crow out of this...actually, I came here today to talk to you, Takuto-kun"

"You want to talk? You mean about those two, I presume?"

"That's right. Introduce yourselves, both of you"

Let's start with the boy.

"Y, Yes! I'm Rook, a rookie summoner"

Does the name come from chess? Or is it the main character of a famous movie?

"Oh, also. I'm Tyrol, a rookie summoner"

I wonder if the name comes from candy? Or rather, they are both summoners. What is the summoned beast? That's what I thought, but I spotted one right away. A goblin. But it's slightly different. A woman?

I wondered what the other one was, but then I saw a wolf. It looks like the old Gray.

"Ah, it's my summoned beast, Gobuna, a goblin"

Oh. You gave it a name that's easy to understand. And Gobuna was a goblin woman, after all.

"My summoned beast is Gonta, a wolf"

Ah, I guess someone would name it after a dog.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Takuto, a summoner. Those are my summoned beasts, Dragonewt Lily and Ion and the elf Setia"

Lily and the others greeted each other. Yeah, yeah. Well done.

"Ho, I'm thrilled to see the real thing!"

"Emm...if it's not too much trouble, I'd like to see the other summoned beasts as well, is that okay?"

It's not a no, but...it's not a good idea to summon them in a store. It seems that Ruin-san knows that too.

"It's not good to summon in the store"

"Th, Thats right...Im sorry. Saying something unreasonable"

"I'll show you when I get a chance"

"A, Are you sure? Thank you very much"

Now, I think I have a general idea of what they are talking about, but I'll ask them a few questions. As expected, I was asked to instruct these beginners.

"Takuto-kun, who is by far the top summoner, is the right person for the job, right?"

"Who's the top player...I'm just an ordinary summoner"

Everyone fell silent at my words. Why?

"You're serious. Takuto-kun"

"You know...if you're the first person to defeat a mid-boss, how can you not call yourself a top player?"

Muu...that may be true.

"But you were fishing yesterday, right?"

"Yes?"

What's that? Face. Ruin-san. But...I needed it for Ion's meal.

"Ah, by the way, you made weights and hooks"

"I made a fishing rod, too"

Ruin-san is holding her head.

"I've never heard of a top player who fishes, but could you help me?"

It's unusual for Ruin-san to ask for that much. Is there a reason?

"Actually, Rook here is the first summoner besides Takuto-kun to summon a female subspecies"

Oh. Congratulations! But what does that have to do with the story?

"To put it bluntly, Rook could be targeted by the players"

"They've asked us to help them and there's nothing we can do about it"

"So you think I'll be okay there?"

"For now. If they're with you, other players won't be able to target them so much. There are not many people who would want to deal with a full party of summoned beasts that are evolving into a very rare subspecies under the current circumstances''

Does that mean I should escort them? Well, I'm not going to challenge the boss and the only thing I have to do is fishing.

""Please!""

Well, I'm enjoying this game too. Do I want to help them for a bit?

"Of course. If you accept, I'll give you a reward. Mew"

"I'll do the talking from here. Takuto-kun, you're still wearing your initial armor and you have a lot of piranha skins, right?"

Yes. I completely forgot and accumulated it.

"Sorry. I forgot a lot of things..."

"Ahaha. That's common. But I think it turned out to be a good thing this time. After all, I can make a robe out of werewolf skin and piranha skin. And since Takuto-kun has the kicking skill, I can also make shoes. How about these two as rewards?"

Seriously? If she can make them for free, I'll be happy.

"I understand. I'll take care of them"

""Ah, thank you so much!""

I don't know what to do if they're honestly happy. I feel a little guilty because I'm even getting paid.

"We'll explore a lot. If you have any problems, please let me know"

"Okay"

This is how I ended up taking care of Rook and Tyrol. At first, I exchanged friends with them and formed a party. Now, where should we start?

----------------------------------------

Author note:

It was the new characters Rook and Tyrol. They're going to be working with Takuto for a while.

Next time, we'll try the first list summon. Please look forward to which summoned beast Takuto will choose.
