Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 130: Redhead girl and duel

I logged into the game. Then I saw Koihi. She seems to be frightened of something, what's wrong?

"Hi...there were so many people..."

When I went downstairs with Koihi, there were a lot of players...hey, hey. And there's something exciting going on. It seems that Lily and a red-haired girl are arguing.

"Ah, Takuto!"

"Huh! That's your summoner? He doesn't look like a big deal"

"Takuto-oniichan...is no big deal..."

Koihi makes a clenched fist and is quietly angry. She's mature enough not to jump on her. Some people just can't take it.

"I'm so mad! I'll never forgive you if you speak ill of Takuto any longer!"

"Good! If you can do it, try it!"

"Takuto! Permission to duel!"

"Scum! Give me permission to duel!"

Even if I was told that...I just came and I don't know the condition...then one of the players stopped the red-haired girl.

"Hanabi, you can't win. Don't say anything bad, just don't duel"

"Who are you talking to? If you're a piece of shit who can't do anything without me, just shut up and give me permission!"

"......Yes"

Being struck and weak!? No, I can't say so strongly because I'm taken care of by Lily and others. And does that child's name say Hanabi? It's just one letter different from Koihi in Kanji.

"That's all you need to know! You're the only one who can!"

"You can't do it here. If you're going to fight, do it outside.

Fighting in a restaurant is bad manners. It's not a matter of it not being open.

"Haaa? Who are you ordering"

"You. I'm in charge of this place. If you're going to fight, do it outside. If you don't listen to me, I'll throw you out"

"How dare you...

When the girls saw Hanabi's fighting stance, they tried to move to protect me, but I used my synchronization skill.

Everyone, don't get involved

Are you sure? Takuto

Yes

"Haaaa!"

Hanabi attacked me. I dodged the attack, grabbed Hanabi by the neck and lifted her up.

"What!? This! Let go of me, you coward!"

She swings her limbs around, but unfortunately she can't reach me.

The girls look at the scene and give me a look of shock.

"Ku! This! Let me go!"

Hanabi is even more violent because of the sight of Lily and the others' faces, but it's rather strange that she looks so cute in her desperate rage.

"Yes Yes. So what is going on here?"

"I'll tell you what's going on. First of all, I'm sorry for Hanabi hitting you. Hey, Hanabi, apologize. You know it's wrong to get violent in a store and hit people, right?"

"...I'm sorry"

She's a surprisingly honest girl, isn't she? She seemed to have calmed down, so I forgave her for punching me and put her down on the ground.

"My name is TAKUMA and I use the Roman alphabet because it sounds like a video game name. You can call me Takuma normally. I'm the summoner who summoned a Dragonewt after you"

"She's a dragonewt!?"

"What? What's wrong with being a dragonewt?"

"It's not bad, but it's the first one I've seen asside of Lily and Ion. I'm surprised"

If you ask me, she looks like Lily and Ion from the beginning in terms of clothing and such. It was a blind spot that I didn't notice. I'll have to introduce myself.

"I'm Takuto. I'm the summoner of those girls"

"So the Young Girl Summoner's name is Takuto? What do you say...any tips on how to make her an honest and gentle dragonewt?"

"There's no such thing...Lily and the others have that kind of personality from the beginning"

"Ku...I, I've always wanted an honest and kind girl"

"Hee...so"

The fire of anger resides in Hanabi-chan. You've stepped on a landmine.

"Hanabi!? Did you hear it just now!?"

We were talking at close range, so she could hear that.

"I heard you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm not an honest girl...huh!"

Hanabi turned away sullenly.

"I'm having trouble with her personality"

"You don't look like that"

"...Do you understand?"

"Yeah"

I only saw a little of the exchange, but I could tell they were close. It may be a special relationship, though. Now, let's get down to business.

"So what was the cause of the fight?"

"Ah...Lily-sama boasted about her strength and Hanabi bared her rivalry and just like that"

I see. Then it's our fault too"

"I'm sorry about that. Lily and the others didn't mean to offend you. I'm sorry if we made you feel bad"

"I don't feel bad. I just want things to be clear"

"I told you not to fight in a duel, because you would lose"

When Hanabi heard this, she turned her gaze angrily to Takuma.

"I understand. I'll allow the duel. Lily and the others are okay with that?"

"Of course! Let's do it!"

"As you wish! I'll avenge you!"

Takuma panicked when I allowed the duel.

"H, Hey!?"

"I'm sure there's a level difference between Hanabi-chan and Lily, right? It's going to be a tough duel for her to win"

"If you know that, then why!"

"Because Hanabi-chan understands this and wants to fight Lily"

She knows that she will probably lose. Still, I think Hanabi has a meaning to challenge Lily.

"The duel will take place on the field"

"Can I observe?"

"I want to be the referee!"

The duel ended up being held on the Seek Road with the players watching. To ensure fairness, the referee was left to the player who volunteered to be the referee.

Lily pulls out her Liebling Large Sword. Hanabi is bare-handed. Let's see what she can do.

"Begin!"

"Fighting Spirit!"

"Burning Fire!"

They both use their skills. Hanabi burst into flames. I've never seen that skill before.

"Huhuh! Burning Fire is a skill that burns the person it touches! If you touch me like this, you'll be burned"

She's explaining it to me. That's sweet. But I guess it's a disadvantage to give away your hand in a duel.

And then they take their stances and both start running.

"Yaaaaa!! Heavy Slash!"

"Haaaaa!! Straight!"

Lily's large sword and Hanabi's punch collide and Hanabi is blown clean away.

Aah...I thought she was going to feint or something, but it turned out to be a head-on collision. It's like riding a bicycle into a dump truck. It was inevitable that this would happen. The audience was also in awe.

"Ha, Hanabi~!"

Takuma's sad cry echoes through the dueling field. It's as if we're watching some kind of shoddy comedy act.

"I won! Takuto!"

Lily comes back happily. She offers her head. Yes, yes. I should just pet it. Now, is Hanabi safe?

"N...I, what the heck..."

"You were blown away by Lily-sama. I told you"

"Sh, Shut up! Shut up! Next! Hey, you cool blue-haired flat chest! Let's fight!"

Ion unleashes an unprecedented killing power.

"...Alright. I'll make sure you never get cocky again"

You can guess the result. She's the kind of girl who would have a head-on collision with Lily. From Ion's point of view, it's a duck like Lily. It looks like a rag.

"If you learn from this, be careful about how you speak"

Even if it is said that, Hanabi stubbornly does not accept the loss challenge Setia and Koihi. She thought it was going to be tough, but Setia shot Hanabi in the leg with her bow and arrow. Then the arrows turned poisonous and Vine Bind was used to restrain Hanabi and she was trapped.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to do something? Won't the poison kill you?"

"Then get rid of this vine! Fight fair!"

"Huhu, no"

I don't know who she looks like at all...is it only me?

Koihi is an instant kill. The distance between them is reduced to a fraction of a second and the glass sword catches Hanabi's neck.

"Do you want to surrender...? If you don't, you'll be decapitated"

"...I surrender"

With that, the duel was over. Hanabi-chan was completely sulking.

"...Hey. What am I supposed to do?"

"Hanabi-chan fought hard for Takuma? If so, is there something to say?"

"Ah..."

I'm sure Hanabi-chan wanted Takuma to recognize her power. I think she wanted to prove that she was strong too, seeing as how Takuma had taken Lily and the others on his shoulders.

Then Rook came out of the audience.

"Good work. Takuto-san. You probably don't know this, but there have been other reports of summoning sub-races besides him. They're all men, though"

"Hee. Have there been any male Dragonewts?"

"No, there haven't been any. The most common sub-races seem to be Goblins and Lizardmen. I think it wouldn't be strange to be able to summon Dryads"

Aaaaah. Rook also slipped his mouth. Did this guy just come out to step on a land mine? He's a picky eater.

"Does the Goblin Summoner has a older sister crush...I'll have to post that on the bulletin board"

"What are you going to do to the Dryads with all those Goblins!"

"That! What that!"

"Wait! I know you're all wondering what it is! And I'm not going to do anything!"

I tap Rook on the shoulder.

"Rook...don't go near Setia"

"Takuto-san!?"

Why are you surprised? It's a natural measure.

After that, Rook was taken away by Tyrol who was among the spectators. Let's hope he's okay.

After that, I talk to Tyrol and the others. The reason is this.

"I can't get the Sheep to be added to my list summon!"

"Have you identified it?"

"Yes"

Now, what's the cause? Well I have an idea....

"When I became an intermediate summoner, the release of some of the summoned beasts was broadcast in the info, so maybe that's the cause?"

"That's probably it. We'll hurry up and go level up!"

"Ah. Good luck"

"Wait for me! My sheep!"

Are they gonna be okay? I'm a little worried, but I've got things to do.

I head to the Beastmasters Guild afterwards. Try out the synthetic summon on Tsukiyume. In fact, Miki pointed out a possibility to me earlier.

A summoned beast is required for synthetic summoning of Spirit

It's as Miki predicted...or maybe she's right, I don't know yet, but it's worth a shot.

That's why I list summon characters that may be potential partners.

The magic stone is sucked into the magic circle and the magic circle shines. Then a Caterpillar is summoned. Koihi recoils a little. Well, it can't be helped, can it? Now, as for the name...let's use the name of the first butterfly that comes to mind.

Name Monshiro Green Caterpillar Lv1

Vitality 5

Magic Power 10

Strength 5

Defense 8

Agility 2

Dexterity 8

Skills

Sticky Thread Lv1

I took this from the name of a famous butterfly. I didn't want to use kanji, so I used katakana. But it's not a name I'd give to a green caterpillar.

Now, let's make the other one a Snake. My target is a Sea Snake. According to Miki, two sea snakes can become Hydra. So let's go for it!

So, I list summon again.

Successful summoning as before. Let's give it a name. I'm going to play this game!

Name Seguro Snake Lv1

Vitality 16

Magic Power 2

Strength 10

Defense 6

Agility 8

Dexterity 8

Skills

Bite Lv1

Coiling Lv1

Poison Lv1

Heat Detection Lv1

If the sea snake is black, I win. If it's colorful, I'm done. Now that the summoning is over, let's go level up.

This was the first appearance of the fire dragonewt Hanabi-chan, other than Takutos summoned beasts mentioned on the bulletin board.
