Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 48: Hiyori's Potential and the Strong Man of the Forest

At any rate, each of them had finished their summoning and were about to go hunting, but the two of them seemed to be concerned about Hiyori.

"Is that a chick you summoned, Takuto-san..."

"Yes, isn't it cute?"

"It's definitely cute, but..."

Umm? You're not making much sense. When asked why, it seems that chicks are treated as off on the bulletin board. Its status is weak and its flight is a few centimeters. It's true that as an early summoned monster it may be hopeless. But only as an early summoned monster.

"I have a feeling that this summoned monster will be transformed by evolution"

"What do you mean?"

"No, it's just a hunch. When you think of a chick evolving, the first thing that comes to mind is a chicken, right?"

"That's right. What's wrong with that?"

"No, chickens appear as normal monsters. So I was wondering why they are in the evolutionary path"

Yes, I've already confirmed in the library that the rampaging chicken is a normal monster. If the chickens evolved from the chick, they would be covered. I'm not sure I'd bother with such a thing.

"In other words, does Takuto-san think that chicks will evolve into powerful bird monsters?"

"Yeah. The weak status makes sense when you think about it. It's more of a late-blooming type"

"That's certainly a possibility, but it's a early monster"

As Tyrol said, if it's a chick at the beginning...

"It's going to be tough. The only way to get a chick is to form a party and raise it until it evolves or put it on a new monster for a while"

"On the bulletin board, there are people who have chicks or who fail to summon chicks and get stuck"

Yeah...I'll pray for those people. I'm just going to fight and believe in Hiyori's potential.

Rook is talking to me while were moving to the Young Tree Forest.

"By the way, Takuto-san, you sounded like you were trying to summon a chick earlier"

"Umm? Ah, you don't know what list summon is?"

"List summon?"

"Yeah. I think it's something you learn with Summoning Magic at Lv5? You can summon any monster you've ever summoned and any monster you've identified with the Identification skill by selecting it from a list"

""What is that? That's unfair!""

It's not unfair. It's the result of properly raising the summoning magic to Lv5.

"B, By the way, Dragonewt"

"Unfortunately, it is impossible to summon. But the goblins I identified earlier can be summoned. Gobuna was not selectable, so the goblins could be summoned alternately or randomly"

"Well, looking at my case, it seems more likely to alternate"

So I'll make a suggestion to Rook.

"Why don't you give it a try?"

"Please don't...I'll leave that to the verifiers"

That's right. You wouldn't become a goblin summoner if you wanted to, would you? And there's something else that's been bothering me. It's the attitude of Rook and others. They don't have a guardian, so they should be about the same.

"And you don't have to be so nervous? We're probably close in age"

""Eh!? Really!?""

I was a little hurt. Do I look like an old man? No, I've been working part-time all my life, so it's probably not surprising that people think that way.

When we arrived at the Young Tree Forest, we changed members. The members were me, Rook, Tyrol, Lily, Kotetsu and Gonta. I asked the goblins and the others to stay back until we reached Desnia's place, since it was too dangerous in the Young Tree Forest. Hiyori too.

Lily and Kotetsu kicked away the goblins and wolves. We arrived at our destination. It's time to eat. I tried Legion Summoning for the first time. Then all my summoned beasts gather. Rook and Tyrol were surprised. Now, let's start today's cooking. This time, it's grilled skewers. However, I didn't want to make just any skewers. So, I coated the boar meat with honey and grilled it. A sweet smell wafted around me.

""Oh, that looks delicious...""

Rook and Tyrol can't wait to eat it, but Lily and the others are also looking forward to it. And if it smells this sweet, of course it will have an effect. However, this time a powerful monster of the tiger class appeared.

""B, Bear!?""

Yes, it's a bear that you basically have to run away from when you meet it in the forest. I can see that the bear's attitude is fidgeting and looking at the food, but the other two are in a panic.

"Calm down. He's not going to attack us"

""He's not going to attack us?""

"Yes. If you're scared, stay away from him"

I said that and Rook and Tyrol kept their distance. Then I gave the bear a skewer of honey-roasted boar meat and it happily bit into it. He's a good eater. After it finished eating, I received the usual info.

You succeeded in feeding the bear. You can make it a companion

Now, let's name it. Since it's a bear, I've chosen this.

The first name that came to mind for a bear was that of the world-famous yellow bear, but I thought it was too quirky, so I decided on another name. I took it from the English reading of chestnut, because of its chestnut-colored fur. It has nothing to do with the game chess.

Now, this chess seems to be an excellent vanguard and tank. It looks like he's going to be a reliable member of our party without a wall.

And then I explained the situation to the two who didn't know what was going on.

"This is why the number of summoned monsters suddenly increased..."

"Takuto-san looks more like a tamer than a summoner"

It's true that I might be a tamer when you look at how I tame it, but I don't want to hear that from Tyrol, who's hugging Chess and enjoys mofumofu.

And that day, I, Chess, Rook, Tyrol, Gobuna and Goblin went around Desnia. It would have been faster if I had used Ion, but Chess had joined us, so I changed the plan. This time I go back to the beginning and take on the other side. I threw the Desnia away and we all beat it up. Rook and Tyrol seem to be leveling up nicely. The goblin and goblina evolved into goblin fighter and goblin archer and then we broke up. Chess, unfortunately, did not evolve. I guess I'll go with Tyrol to level up tomorrow.

I made a final contract with Chess at the Beastmaster's Guild and logged out.
