Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

"What\'s the situation up there?"

"We can exit the building just fine. They seem to have separated their forces. The vice leader is hiding somewhere in the village. The security is a bit tight, so I can\'t really go out there to pinpoint his location.

"On the other hand, their leader has led their troops out. I don\'t know where they are going, but it\'s probably the village, like getting water or something. Either way, if we make our move now, we can defeat them."

Nathan nodded. He recalled Nidhogg first, since his body was too big to move in this underground prison. After that, Nathan asked Sera. "Can you summon your angel and fallen angel to distract the rest of the bandits? I\'ll be leaving Anubis with you while the other two will go with me to take down the vice leader."

"Will you be fine?"

"Yes. But it means you have to prepare the summoning circle by yourself."

"I can do it." Sera nodded with a serious expression.

"Alright. Let\'s go." With Nathan leading the group, they immediately headed to the stairs.

Sera couldn\'t help but look at other cells before noticing something amiss. Despite all the threats that the bandits had thrown at her, she actually noticed the lack of blood in this place.

They definitely wouldn\'t really clean up the underground prison that much, so there was bound to be blood on the floor or wall.

The fact she didn\'t see any blood meant two things. The bandits might have just been formed, or these bandits were just throwing empty threats to make them give in.

The former was unlikely because the bandits had a huge size, and their leader was a strong summoner with five familiars.

Hence, she realized the bandits must have been bluffing this whole time. If she gave in, they would definitely get the money without dirtying their hands.

It was probably the reason Nathan deceived them. He knew everything would be fine.

Before she could think any further about what she was going to do with the bandits, they had reached the stairs. As soon as they reached the ground floor, which turned out to be empty, she summoned her familiars.

"Distract the bandits by flying into the air. You can take them down if they are going to distract him. But unless it\'s necessary, don\'t harm or kill them," Sera gave the instruction.

"Understood." Both of them nodded. Even though they would argue most of the time, a survival battle was more important, especially when Nathan summoned the three divine beasts. If they actually messed up and became their burden, they couldn\'t uphold their image anymore.

"What is the holy relic?" Nathan asked.

Sera looked around as she sensed the holy relic and found a small shelf for spears and swords.

She grabbed one of the spears and showed it to him. "This is the holy relic."

"Huh? An ordinary-looking spear?" Nathan\'s eyebrows twitched.

Sera didn\'t bother to explain it to him. She simply showed it to the fallen angel and said, "Cut it here."

The fallen angel raised her palm as a spear made of fire-like black energy formed. She then cut the spear according to Sera\'s instruction. And it was then a small golden crystal fell off the spear.

"Huh?" Nathan was amused. The crystal was emitting a golden light. It was faint, but it was clearly something out of the ordinary. To think that they would hide a holy relic inside an ordinary-looking spear. And for some reason, it was in the hands of the bandits.

He didn\'t know what kind of mess-up setting the Fairy Queen had to make this trial.

Nevertheless, he actually figured out which Valkyrie she might be able to summon. "Use that spear as your sacrificial item as well."

Sera didn\'t understand why, but it was clear Nathan knew what he was doing. So she just gathered all of them next to each other.

After that, Fenrir let his blood drop on the spear and the crystal.

"That should be enough." Fenrir turned around. "Let\'s go!"

The angel and the fallen angel nodded to Sera before coming out first. They immediately took off to the sky, which alarmed the bandits.

"Enemies!"

"There is an angel and a fallen angel in the sky!"

"What? Does the saintess manage to escape?"

"Hurry up and check!"

"How can she escape from the cold iron shackles?"

The bandits were panicking. There were at least half of them in the stronghold, so both the angel and the fallen angel had to work hard to take care of them, especially since Sera didn\'t want to kill them unless necessary.

One soldier came to a building near the main building. "Vice leader! It\'s not good. The saintess has escaped. We need your help to fight against those familiars!"

"!!!" The vice leader\'s expression turned grim. He shoved away the women serving him on his side and said, "Hurry up and call the leader back. I\'ll buy you some time. We can\'t let her escape."

"Yes, sir!"

The atmosphere inside the stronghold couldn\'t be any more different from in the main building.

Nathan looked excited for one reason. It was the fact that she would use the spear to summon the Valkyrie.

\'There is only one Valkyrie in my mind right now. I don\'t know if she has enough Ena to summon her, but I hope she does… or at least, have this trial give her more Ena please. I want her to summon Brunhilde. The Valkyrie who is known for her beauty. Hehehe.\' A small chuckle leaked out of Nathan\'s mouth.

Fenrir could only look at him with a judging gaze, thinking, \'He must be thinking something lewd again.\'
