Hello, guys , one more chapter finished:D

With this , the first mini-arc is finished, and we can start the first real arc . This one will be slightly longer (20 episodes or so) so bear with me .

This chapter is not from Andel’s POV .

Without further ado , this is an order : ENJOY !

Summoning Arc: Destruction and Hope

‘Hahh ...’

“Mea , how long till we reach the border of the world ?” [Woman #1]

I ask her another pointless question . The answer is obvious, but I can’t wait anymore .

“Two more hours Miss Hecate . We shall arrive just before sunrise .” [Mea]

Two more hours ...

‘ A sunrise at the edge of the world is something that anyone should see at least once in their lifetime ! ‘ . Those are the last words mother said before she died .

She said that , while travelling , she met father at the sunrise in the nine digits area .

Since I was a kid , seeing this scene was my biggest wish . Now it is about to be fulfilled .

But I am sad .

Today is my last day as a free person . Tomorrow is my wedding with the third prince of the Great Naga Clan . An actual three digits clan .

If I had to choose , I would better kill myself than becoming than monsters toy , but , for my clan , I am willing to suffer a thousand years worth of pain .

Marry him and delay the fate of our clan . Kill myself and condemn everyone I love to a fate worse than death : slavery under the banner of the Emerald Dragon Clan .

Ranked 807 , a real three digits clan unmatched under the sun .

A mere four digits stand no chance against them . But , with the help of the Nagas, we might be able to avoid disaster .

‘Huhhh ...This is a fate worse than death , but it’s my destiny, and I will accept it with all my soul !’

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

“Eh ...” [Mea]

“Something the matter Mea ? ” [Hecate]

“Nothing significant Miss Hecate , just a little battle taking place somewhere near . ” [Mea]

Mea is my protector . She has been with me since I was born . Although she looks frail , she is quite strong actually . With her around, there are not many things that could harm me .

“A fight ? Interesting ... We are close enough to the edge of the dimensional plane . Let’s enjoy a little spectacle before the sunrise , shall we ?” [Hecate]

“As you wish Miss .” [Mea]

With a slight movement of her hand , the big Cloud Ship changes it’s direction slightly towards the east .

A Cloud Ship is one of the fastest classes, with powerful shields and good camouflage abilities . Unfortunately , its offensive power is almost nil .

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

Five minutes later we arrive at our destination . Below us, a few tens of thousands of soldiers from over ten different species are surrounding a single man .

In front of that person is a Celestial Whale sitting on a golden throne ... Oh ... Wait ... It’s actually a girl ... For a second I really thought it was a Celestial Whale ...

“Mea information please .” [Hecate]

“One second Miss Hecate ...” [Mea]

Her eyes turn violet, and she enters a semiconscious state . This is Mea's innate ability : Universal Library .

A person using this ability is capable of connecting their consciousness to the Celestial Library where records of all 8 digits and higher individuals are located .

A few seconds later her eyes return to their original sky – blue colour , sign that she interrupted her ability .

“That Moby Dick over there is called Elenair Yllaqirelle . She is from an ex 6 digits clan that is thought to have been exterminated . Those soldiers are not recorded in the Celestial Library, which means they are only 9 digits small fries . As for that man over there ... ” [Mea]

She looks a little ... frustrated ?

“Is there something wrong with him ?” [Hecate]

For a second she hesitates , but then , after clearing her throat, she looks me in the eyes ...

“He is not part of the library which means that he is 9 digits , but the power that I can feel from him right now could be compared to the combined strength of a late thousands 7 digits clan . ” [Mea]

Ehh ... That is interesting .

“Activate espionage mode . Concentrate on the man and the whale . Let us watch this to the end .” [Hecate]

“As you wish Miss !” [Mea]

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

From the information that we gathered, it looks like that man is called Andel . He is a summoned hero from a different world that received a divine blessing .

If it was only that much, it would not be such big of a deal , but a few seconds ago he used a B+ level ability : Shatter .

All the enemies and pretty much everything in a five kilometres radius has been turned to dust . Fortunately, the shields of the ship were activated so we were not affected by it .

It must be known that B+ level abilities are not something that everyone can use . Even in our clan that is ranked 2182 , a powerful 4 digits clan , B+ abilities can be counted on a man’s hand .

The strongest spell that our clan possesses is an A- level ability that only Clan Master , my father , has the capacity to use .

Furthermore , Andel’s power is now five times greater than when we first arrived ... Unbelievable!

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

He seems angry ...

On his arms nine snakes eating their own tails can be seen . Mea said that those are seals ...

‘Eh ...’

The ship starts moving backwards with maximal speed . I turn around and see Mea controlling the ship with a pale look on her face .

“Mea , what are you doing ? ” [Hecate]

She doesn’t even turn her head around while answering me with a trembling voice .

“I am sorry Miss Hecate , but we must get away as fast as possible ... Otherwise, w-we might ... Not survive !” [Mea]

Eh ... Is she serious ? What kind of ability is Andel going to use to make even Mea so afraid ...

Luckily espionage mode is still active so I can see and hear him quite well even from this distance .

Andel says a single word and the whole world stops moving like time actually stopped : “Release.”

A surge of energy rotates around his body . Out of thin air, a bloody robe made out of pure crimson red fire appears to him .

His eyes and hair turn completely bloody red and the seals on his arms transforms in real fire snakes that wriggle around until they form a necklace . Two long horns can be seen starting on his forehead and arching over the top of his head .

‘What kind of hero is he ??? ‘

The sky is mostly black right now , with thick bolts of lightning flashing everywhere .

He looks ... Terrifying ...

I am not afraid of death nor of pain or suffering , but when I look at him my hair stand on its end .

Andel raises his right hand and points it directly at the poor woman that instigated his wrath .

“FIRST REVELATION ...” [Andel]

A ball of fire appears in front of him . Its size is unbelievable . It starts spinning faster and faster getting smaller after every cycle . In the end , it get’s small enough to fit in his hand .

“CHAOS ...” [Andel]

The ball of fire turns liquid ... I’ve never seen something like this . I look at Mea, and it sounds like she hasn’t seen anything like that either ...

“FIRE !” [Andel]

After that word is spelled , the ball of liquid fire is released with a phenomenal speed directly at Elenair.

No screams can be heard before a fire column that connects the sky, and the earth appears out of nowhere .

The column goes past the clouds dispersing them in all directions . Less that one breath worth of time later , the fire starts extending towards us. It is moving at such a speed that not even our ship can escape although we were over one hundred kilometres away .

Mea stops in place the ship and pour all the energy in the shields .

Fortress Mode . While this is activated , not even an A level ability could damage the ship . We should be safe , but still, why can’t I calm my breathing ?

The answers come in the next instant . The shield starts cracking, and it looks to be on the verge of collapsing . We barely make it out alive ... One more second and the shield would have indeed collapsed .

There is nothing left in sight . Everything has been turned to lava .

“This is impossible ... If only the residual energy could deal this amount of damage , just what level was that ability ???” [Hecate]

I shout towards Mea ... I know it is not very ladylike , but right now is not the time to think about that kind of things .

Mea looks towards me , sweat pouring down her face . She is completely pale ... This is the first time I’ve seen her like this ...

“S ...” [Mea]

Eh ... What did she just say ... S ...

No ....

“Mea , that is impossible ... S level abilities ... Only those one digit monsters possess ... How could ...” [Hecate]

Mea is not reacting at all at my shouting ... Is it really possible ... That I just witnessed and survived an actual legendary S level ability ...

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

I decided ... I will risk everything ... I will bet my life , my soul , my clans existence on you ... Andel .

“Mea , get the ship near Andel ... I want to talk with him !” [Hecate]

She is still completely pale ... But it looks like she will not disobey my command . The ships turn around, and we head to where Andel was a few minutes ago .

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

He just sits there , not moving whatsoever ... Although he was in the middle of that explosion , there can’t be seen not even one drop of blood on him ... What blood ? Not even his hair is damaged ...

We approach slowly not to startle him .

I’ve already prepared for this ...

‘Original form : Checked .

Clan emblem : Checked .

Revealing but not slutty clothes : Checked .’

Good ... let’s do this ... Calm down Hecate ... He doesn’t seem to be such a bad person ... I will do this ... I will ask for his help, and he will agree ... He MUST agree .

‘Agree Andel ... Help my clan and you can have my whole . I will be yours forever . Even if you want me to be your slave , as long as you can save our clan , I am willing to !’

I check my body one last time and , with a trembling voice , I introduce myself ...

“Please excuse me Andel - sama , this humble person here is called Hecate from the Arachne clan . If you have a second, I would love to ... ” [Hecate]

Before I finish talking, he turns around . He stares at my body, and his face distorts ...

‘Whaa ... What have I done ??? Please , kill me but don’t exterminate my clan ... Please ... ’

“Eh ... Hot girl .... SPIDERRRR ????!!!?!??!” [Andel]

‘Swish’

In the blink of the eye, he just disappears from sight ...

“What the hell just happened ???” [Hecate]
