Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 3: Summoner and Dragonewt

According to the info, summoning a Summoned Beast requires a Summoning Stone. This time, I got a Summoning Stone for free as a Starting Bonus. I immediately placed the Summoning Stone on the ground as written on the instructions and evoked the Level 1 spell, Magic Stone Summon.

Magic Stone Summon!

When I cast the spell, a purple magic circle automatically formed around the magic stone. The magic stone floated upward, and was sucked into the magic circle. After that, dazzling yellow lights came out from the Summoning Circle that absorbed the Magic Stone. The light was so dazzling that I had to close my eyes, but the light stopped soon after.

When I opened my eyes, a cute, blue-eyed girl with long, blonde hair stood in the middle of the Magic Circle. The Information Panel popped up again.

[Dragonewt Summoning Success. Please give it a name]

If Im not mistaken, a Dragonewt is part of the Dragon Race, right? In other words, this girl is a Demi Human-type Summoned Beast. For me to summon a Dragon right off the bat

As I froze, the Dragonewt girl talked to me.

Did you Summon me?

Ah, yeah. I was the one who summoned you.

Oh crap, I didnt think shed talk to me

I see. Tell me your name.

Its Se no. Takuto. My name is Takuto.

I almost told her my real name. I heard this kind of thing was taboo, so I have to be careful next time.

Takuto. Thats a nice name!

The girl smiled honestly and cheerfully. This VR technology is scary; she looked just like a real girl. When I thanked the girl for her words, she says,

Hey Takuto, give me a name.

She asked me for a name. I never thought that I would have to give her a name. I looked at her. I got the feeling that she is a bright and honest girl. I looked at her and decided on a name.

How about Lily?

Her name was derived from the lily flower. There are a lot of kinds of lilies, but I decided to name her based on the flower language of ordinary lilies. During my part-time job at the florists, the lady I was working with told me that in the language of flowers, lilies mean purity, innocence, and chastity, which I thought was appropriate for this girl.

I would like to exclude its other meanings such as charm, pure love, and longing as its not appropriate for a first meeting. There are more meanings associated with the flower, but those dont fit the image of this girl a bit, so I wont include it.

In other countries, the flower seems to be mostly associated with purity and innocence as well, so there should be no problem.

Lily So thats my name

Now I wonder if shell like the name I gave her.

If you dont like it, just let me know. Ill do my best to think of another one.

As I said that, the girl hugged me.

No, its fine! Thank you for the cute name, Takuto!

I see. Its nice to meet you, Lily.

Yeah, nice to meet you too, Takuto!

Oh man, shes so cute...I have stepsisters so I could resist her cuteness to some degree, but if I didnt, it would be bad.

After I finished naming her, the notice popped out.

[This concludes the Summoners tutorial. We will now teleport you to the first town]

We were enveloped in light. Oooh, so this is teleportation. Finally, we moved into the game world.

When I opened my eyes, we were already at the town square.

Oooh, so this is the town

Its the town!

As I voiced out my thoughts, Lily, who was beside me, imitated the action. She was smiling as if there was something good, so I kept from reproaching her.

As I glanced at our surroundings, I could see that several players were being teleported to the town one after another. If we stayed where we were, we would get in the way, so I pulled Lily and we retreated to one of the back alleys. And just lille hoe the tutorial taught me earlier, I viewed our statuses.

I dont have anything to compare it to, so I dont really understand how Lilys strength is uselessly high. As expected of the Dragonkin. As for my status, I think the build is also pretty high. After all, save for my DEF which is at 4, all the other stats are at least a 10 and above.

Next, I looked at the Item Box and found a Novices Staff, Beginners Potion x 5, Portable Meal x 5 and money worth 5000G inside. It didnt contain a Sword for Lily, so it seems Ill have to buy that one. After taking out the Novices Staff, my preparation was complete. Next, we have to look for a suitable Sword for Lily, but first

Can I help you?

Hoeh?

I spoke up and Lily made a puzzled sound. It seems Lily hasnt noticed it.

So you noticed, huh

A single female player appeared in front of us. She looked considerably older than mekind of like an office lady.

Isnt what youre doing stalking?

Dont be so touchy...Im sorry for stalking you

Hmmmif she apologized right away, then I guess theres no need for alarm

So again, how may I help you?

Why dont we introduce ourselves first? My name is Ruin. Im a Beta-Tester and my class is a Merchant

Since she introduced herself, then I guess I have to tell her my name too.

Im Takuto, and this is Lily. Im a Summoner

So that girl is a Summoned Beast, after all

Hnn? So this was all about Lily?

Is there something wrong with Lily?

No, its nothing Im just surprised because I havent seen a female Summoned Beast even during Beta-Testing

So Lilys existence was rare and she wanted to talk to me.

I suppose I cant trouble you to tell me about her race and her stats now, can I?

That seems to be the case, I thought, but Lily beat me to the punch and cheerfully answered.

Lily is a Dragonewt!

There was a strange air of awkwardness between both sides.

How should I say this. Im sorry, okay? I shouldnt have asked you that

Its alright, it was Lily who answered anywaythe fault lies on our side this time

Even so, I cant just leave it like this. If Im not mistaken, youre a beginner, arent you? Is there anything you need help with?

I do have a lot of things I need help with, but for now

Do you know a good Weapons Shop?

Of course. Ill introduce you to someone I know

And so, we followed Ruin-san as she led us to the Weapons Shop.
