Chapter 84 - Summoning
-----
In front of my eyes, there was a mysterious, white-colored egg with green dots on it. It is supposed to have been born from any of the monsters here but… all of them seem to not be guilty.
So how did it even came to be? How did this thing appear here?
No one knows… And it will hatch in a few hours.
Well, let\'s leave it here for now I guess…
I quickly left the Monster Hatchery and planned to call the monster pets whenever there was any fighting going on.
For now, I decided to summon!
Yes, I am going to summon more heroes, at long last.
Now that my System reached Rank 2, the Summon Function got to Rank 2 and it allows me to get a free summon per banner, which means I got three free summons from the three existing banners, the normal banner, the summer versions banner, and the evil banner.
So I quickly decided to summon in all three of them at the same time, as several magic circles emerged around the holographic window in front of me, summoning three different-colored jewels sparkling with powerful energies…
Three jewels appeared from these single summons. A red-colored one, a blue-colored one, and a black-colored one…
[You summoned the following Heroes]
[Kireina, Ocean Beauty] [★★★★★]
[Aqua, Brave Lake Water Slime] [★★★★]
[Wagyu, Fierce Shadow Wolf Emperor] [★★★★]
Ah… What?!
I got another Kireina… And this is the summer version?! Holy shit...
Wait, what happens if I summon her? Do I get two Kireina at once? This is beginning to resemble those FGO Doujins that include multiple versions of the same character…
Wait, is this how it will be? I don\'t know what to say…
Ah, right… There is also Aqua, the slime of Demon Queen Rebirth, a tamed monster pet of one of the protagonists, Veronica… And the other is Wagyu, a servant and loyal wolf of Kireina…
All of them seem like they could be useful allies, and my Mana is enough to fuel all their existence at the same time too.
And about their abilities… Aqua has things related to water production and shapeshifting, alongside the change of shape… But I don\'t see this as much of a necessity as of now. And maybe if there are any Slime Monsters, I might get their Skills dropped, which could be similar to Aqua.
And Wagyu is mostly an attacker and uses shadows, and I just got Shadow Binding, so it is not important either.
And Kireina… Now, this is a unique character. She possesses some of the same Skills as my Kireina, but this one has also a unique axe-type weapon that seems to be infused with powerful water-based magic. And she specializes in that too.
I am a bit concerned about summoning another Kireina, the other one might get confused or angered… I have to ask her first.
I was summoning in the open grasslands near the Monster Hatchery by myself, oh, well, Wisp was floating around me, so I wasn\'t exactly alone.
I quickly flew back to the house as I decided to ask Kireina over it…
"A-Another version of me?" she asked.
"Yes… Is it weird?" I sighed.
"Well, to be honest… Kind of… But that\'s how your power works, Master. So don\'t fret over it. We\'ll make sure to accept her- Well, me… Ah, this is really awkward, isn\'t it? But yeah, just feel free to summon her if you desire!" said Kireina.
Certainly, another 5 Star Summon would be very useful, although we would need to level her up all the way to our current levels.
With the amount of Mana I possess, it should be more than sufficient to maintain three more Summons, but I think that could be my limit, especially because summons get costlier to maintain as they level up.
I guess I will summon her and deal with it as we go.
For now, I decided to customize the settings before her creation. Summons are different, by using a jewel, you\'re creating a completely new lifeform made into the image of a character. They are by no means alive before you summon them, nor do they actually exist. It is like creating your own custom waifu! …It sounds weird, but this entire world is weird so whatever.
Should I give her the same personality as Kireina? Or maybe make it a bit different… I definitely want her to be gentle and motherly… but something else… Oh, instead of Kireina\'s playful personality, this one could be calmer I suppose.
And done… Now let\'s summon Aqua and Wagyu first through.
I put the two jewels in the ground as magic circles emerge instantly after my command, the light begins to materialize into two shapes, as new "living" beings are born.
One is a large bluish slime, the size of a dog, which begins to bounce around the moment she\'s summoned.
"Blob! Master? Are you my Master?" it asked cutely, I had made her personality cute after all!
Damn, it felt like I was crafting my own homunculus to an extent… Is this how Alchemist feels?!
And the large wolf, of almost two meters of height, appears too, with blazing crimson-red eyes and fluffy black fur, alongside a large fluffy tail waving around happily, this was Wagyu!
"Woof! I am at your service, Master! I am glad to have been created to help and serve you…!" it said while waving its tail.
Uwah, it is really an adorable and giant fluffy wolf!
I quickly began to pet Wagyu, he was really very soft…
Actually, everyone began to pet him all around, even Aqua.
"Glad to have you two in the crew," I said, welcoming them as I saw the last jewel…
Alright, let\'s get to it…
I put the last jewel in the ground like a flash of multi-colored light emerges, forming a magic circle of rainbow color…
FLASH!
A sudden figure emerges from the light, forming and shaping itself… It looks like a beautiful and slender lady, with long hair and horns atop her head, and even fairy wings appear as well…
