Chapter 68: You Summoned? So Did I
update icon Updated at 2025/7/8 19:10:12

Of course, I wouldn't just stand there like a fool when something like this happens. No matter what, this is not the time to be watching the plot unfold.

That dumbfounded look while watching the other person causing trouble, although it happens frequently in games because the characters are fixed due to the plot and cannot be controlled, it's different now. We don't have those limitations anymore.

"Split up and quickly evacuate everyone!"

I shouted loudly to the people next to me and grabbed Oyado and Aliyah, running directly towards the south gate.

The people around immediately understood what I meant and quickly fled in the direction I indicated.

Oh right, there's also Uncle Gabriel!

I looked at the collapsed house, then turned to Oyado and Aliyah.

"You two go ahead to the south gate! I'll call Uncle Gabriel and catch up with you."

"Brother, I want to go with you..."

"Listen to me! This is no time for jokes!"

I looked at her seriously and then glanced at Aliyah.

"Please take Oyado and run!"

"Well... even if you didn't say, I would do it!"

She said, then grabbed Oyado's hand.

"Let's go..."

"Yeah..."

Oyado nodded.

"Don't die easily, be careful..."

Aliyah said that, then pulled Oyado and rushed towards the south gate.

"Really... at a time like this... don't jinx it..."

I shook my head, then directly accelerated and rushed towards the collapsed house.

Of course, if I hadn't seen Uncle Gabriel's name still under that collapsed house, I wouldn't have come running. This guy is at least a few levels higher than me, so I shouldn't worry at a time like this...

Boom!

Before I could get closer, the collapsed house shook, and Gabriel's figure jumped out from underneath!

"What the hell, you..."

"It took me a little time to heal my wounds, sorry about that."

Seeing me standing in astonishment in front of him, he chuckled.

"Really, hurry up, the situation is very serious now."

"Are you talking about the guy who attacked me? There's no need to fear that guy, I'll take care of him. In that case, this country will owe me a favor, and I can openly ask the king for that instrument from the Seamus family."

So this guy had such intentions, it's quite... righteous indeed...

"But it's impossible for you to defeat him."

I said.

"Huh? Why?"

"Can you defeat the Demon God?"

"Demon God...?"

When Gabriel heard my words, his expression, which had been laughing, froze.

"I think... we should evacuate everyone before that guy goes crazy. That bastard has summoned the Demon God, and it's beyond our capability to deal with."

"This..."

Just after I finished speaking, a bolt of lightning shot towards the sky from the direction of the altar. Then, the sky seemed to be filled with ink, slowly turning black from the center where the lightning struck.

The black clouds started spreading crazily, and before long, more than half of King City's sky turned black.

"That..."

"You go quickly and make sure the people at the north gate evacuate, escaping is the most important thing now."

"Alright."

After saying that, Gabriel spread his wings and flew up into the sky.

Seeing him fly away, I... escape? That's impossible.

"Subtle shadow."

Using the nearby shadows, I activated the thief's skill "Subtle Shadow" and instantly merged into the shadow.

Looking up, I glanced around and then floated up into the air, flying towards the north.

Did I see Gabriel flying in the air earlier? Or did I sense his presence?

Well, it doesn't matter.

I looked at the position of the altar, drank a bottle of magic recovery potion, and activated the teleport skill.

The next moment, I appeared directly above the altar.

Time was running out, and I hurriedly rushed over to Saito's side, but when I saw the constantly wriggling talisman on him, I didn't dare to get too close.

"Hey, are you still conscious?"

"Kill me... kill me, the summoner, and he will be sent straight to the abyss... Otherwise..."

"I'm telling you, since you know this thing is so dangerous, why did you summon it? You're not trying to conquer the world. Look at you... I mean, just look at you. You look like a bad person. Why not just summon it and control him? Now, he's the one who's controlling you. What are we going to do now?"

"So, you have to kill me..."

"Grand ultimate skill, Judgment, Cross of Tear!"

Since he said so, I had to act accordingly, right?

I immediately summoned the Cross of Tear and stabbed it directly at his chest.

Of course, I just wanted to stab him, but as soon as the cross touched the runes, it turned into mist and dissipated into the air.

"Huh?"

"Seems like it's a talisman with a 'dispel' effect... The other side really thought this through. Without something to touch me, they can't kill me..."

"Can you please bite your tongue and kill yourself?"

"Well..."

"Alright, I know it's difficult. I won't force you. By the way, how did you summon the demon god? With something so powerful, you'd basically be invincible."

"But I can't control it..."

"If you knew you couldn't control it, why did you summon it? Are you trying to cause a world-class crisis? To destroy the world?"

"That's why I summoned it because I know I'm about to die..."

"No, no, no, that reason doesn't hold up at all. Have you lost your mind? For the sake of world peace, can't you implant a time bomb or something in your body to ensure everything goes smoothly?"

"Well, that's..."

"Okay, then give me a solution. Tell me how to summon the demon god, or how to remove the talisman on your body."

"To summon, you need an item left behind by the other party, and a large amount of magic crystals, the kind of large magic crystals, at least 50 or more. And to remove the talisman on my body, only a person of absolute purity can do it. Otherwise, it is impossible to remove this ghostly talisman."

"Purity..."

I thought for a moment, I knew someone who could be considered pure... Or rather, someone who is completely... No, that's not right. It seems like there really is such a person if we really want to say it, but I always feel that although she has the reputation of being pure, her true nature...

"Well, at a time like this, I should at least give it a try..."

"You know someone who can do this?"

"I have to try."

Saying that, I walked directly to the summoning array and threw all the magic crystals I had collected onto it.

The magic crystals that had been filled with the shikigami before were also inside, and I had already collected quite a few. They all piled up to a small mountain about my height.

"That should be enough."

I nodded in satisfaction and asked Saito, "The incantation?"

"What do you want to summon? If you don't have an item..."

"Just tell me the incantation."

"Oh trembling gate to the Other World, please follow this signal and seek its origin, guide it to the present!"

After I repeated the incantation, the magic array immediately lit up. I smiled, this was expected, I had already placed the so-called 'item' on it earlier.

And after he recited the incantation, I also repeated it, so the summoning array directly activated.

I'm so clever!

A white light emerged from the magic array, accompanied by a bone-chilling cold.

After a while, a figure slowly appeared on the magic array. I smiled and walked over.

"Yo, welcome back~"

"Here... Huh? Why am I here?"

"Because I summoned you~"

I smiled and reached out my hand, pulling her up.

"But now is a major crisis, so I need your help, Miss Yuki Montes~"

That's right, the one I summoned is none other than the undead Miss Yuki Montes!

And what I used to summon her on the summoning array, is the bow she once used.

"Alright, My Saintess, come and help us save the world."
