Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

"Ugh. The snow is already piling up." Sera looked up. "It won't be long before our home is buried under the snow. I feel like it snows harder than last year…"

"Have you set aside some money for the maids and butlers to take care of this place?" Nathan glanced at Selena.

"Yes. Don't worry. Everything is going to be fine. I have been learning a lot about managing a household during my visit to noble houses as the vice president." Selena waved her hand as if it wasn't a big deal. "I've set more money than necessary, so they'll be rewarded fairly."

"All right." Nathan nodded.

When they were about to leave, Alavenya's voice suddenly rang from behind.

"Wait."

"Hmm?" Both Nathan and Selena turned their heads around, finding Alavenya bringing her own luggage. "What's wrong?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Alavenya looked down for a moment. "Can I… go with you on this mission?"

"Eh?" Selena looked shocked, not knowing whether she should go or not. After all, the decision would be in Nathan's hand this time.

"Do you know that the trip is going to be extremely dangerous? This time, it won't be just a mission." Nathan frowned.

"I know."

"Then you should know that you have a chance to die on this mission, right?"

"Yes. Even so, please allow me to join this mission. Besides, having me will also make the trip a bit safer, no? I might lose against you, but it's not like I'm weak."

Nathan crossed his arms.

"Please. I promise I will listen to your order."

Nathan couldn't help but contemplate.

"I think it's fine?" Selena asked. "I don't know the mission, though."

"Yeah. I've just grabbed the mission earlier. The mission itself is not dangerous, but because of this, you will be exposed to those terrorists." Nathan decided to honestly tell her.

"I don't mind." Alavenya shook her head. "If something happens to me, it will be my fault."

"That's not how your father will think."

Alavenya bit her lips. Although she was angry at her father, she hadn't told Nathan and the others about it. So, everyone still thought she had a good relationship with her father.

Seeing her resolute face, Nathan knew there might be no chance for him to reject her.

"All right. Let's go then. The mission might be dangerous, but I will do my best to ensure that the worst won't happen." Nathan nodded, finally agreeing to her request.

Alavenya let out a breath of relief.

"Have you packed up everything? We can buy the rest over there, but we need money. There is no Axis Inn over there."

"Yes. I've brought everything I need."

"Sure. Let's go then." Nathan waved his hand, asking her to come.

Alavenya immediately came out and closed the door.

While they were walking on the street, Sera asked, "By the way, what's the mission this time?"

"The mission this time will be quite long. There's a chance we might even stay there for New Year. As for the destination, it's called Rara-raoi Village? I don't know how to pronounce it."

"Ooohhhhhh!" Sera looked excited. "Rararaoi Village?"

"What? You know about it?" Selena tilted her head in confusion.

"Yes. It's a famous destination not far from the Blacksmith Guild headquarters. What? You don't know about it even though you're a noble? This is the famous hot spring village. I have visited them once to relax myself after summoning a fallen angel. It's a good place."

Selena and Alavenya blinked their eyes a few times.

"You're going to the hot spring? As a saintess?"

"As a corrupt saintess. Who cares?" Sera stuck out her tongue.

"Why has your title as the 'corrupt saintess' rather become an excuse instead of a stigma now?" Selena's eyebrows twitched.

"Hehehe. It's fine. I have found something much more fun and don't really contradict my belief." Sera smiled.

Nathan chuckled. "Anyway, the mission this time seems to be calming the Mountain God or something. We need to head to the inn to check what's going on.

"Besides, since we're going to stay for a while, it's good to stay in a place where we can relax. Well, I'm pretty tired of dealing with bandits and aliens for the time being, so I choose this mission.

"With such a rural area, it's also good for a big fight," Nathan explained. "Also, I'm not sure what's happening over there. If I'm not wrong, there's a chance that this 'Mountain God' they're talking about is an earthquake or something.

"Considering it's a volcano, I just want to make sure whether that volcano is going to erupt or not…"

When he mentioned a volcano, Nathan couldn't help but remember the dream from back then. The world was covered in ash clouds, and the temperature felt like winter.

He wanted to know whether that volcano was the culprit or not. If not, he would just enjoy the time over there. Besides, the Blacksmith Guild's researcher would spread the news about the earthquake pretty soon.

After hearing that explanation, they headed to the teleportation portal, heading straight to the Blacksmith Guild headquarters.

However, they went further south. Of course, Fenrir was the one carrying them on his back.

Obviously, their movements were being monitored secretly, not only by various kingdoms and influences but also by the Divine Hand Organization.

…

Divine Hand Organization.

"We have spotted him going with Selena Ashton, Serafina Dialanta, and Alavenya Silveresta to the portal."

Iskar couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows. "To think he would actually leave the academy. As expected, he is a fool. With his teacher occupied, no one can help him.

"We need to find out his current location. Check the trace of the space element near the teleportation circle to see where he is going. We'll take our time to make sure there is no one watching over him, especially the Sage. We'll capture him and show how foolish he is.

"If there's a sign of him returning to the academy, do whatever you need to stop him. Remember. We have to succeed."
