“Young man, let us check that beast!”

“I suspect that the Saint Child has been possessed by a spirit element beast, I shall save him!”

“There is a strange fluctuation going on around the Saint Child, we must help!”

Those powerhouses in the crowd who struck were not brainless, daring to attack in the home base of the strongest faction like apes. They timed their strike perfectly and even shouted out righteous words, making it hard for the Holy Saint Summoner faction to take their lives if things went awry.

After all, they were leaders of factions only one step below this one, and even if they were in competition, they would not easily risk their precious and noble lives without leaving a backup. A competent thief never commits a robbery without an escape route.

“STOP!”

“HOW DARE YOU ALL!”

“PROTECT THE SAINT CHILD!”

Immediately the incoming elder sensed the movement here and were shocked, doing their best to arrive on time and block for Dante. After all, their Saint Child had surpassed all expectations and constructed a Divine Beast.

A Divine Beast!!

Usually, those who got Divine Beasts where generational prodigies not seen in 100,000 years and even then, it was in their 9th or 10th summoning ‘slot,’ so they only got one or two at their peak.

Never before has there be someone qualified to contract a Divine Beast in their first slot. Such a person was destined to conquer the entire universe and stand at the top of all beings.

How could the Holy Saint Summoner faction let such a beloved Saint Child die? Conversely, how could the other factions allow such a monster to live?

“No!” The battered wyvern was filled with fury and regret, hating his own weakness as he tried to rush to stand in front of Dante, but the consecutive blows had rendered him weak.

He had been tasked to protect the Saint Child and had failed majestically in his duty. If anything happened to Dante, he would end his own useless life because he couldn’t bear the shame of failing to protect the prodigy of a generation.

Meanwhile, as all this played out, Dante was amused. From his point of view, everyone was moving in slow motion, and his spirit sense allowed him to view everything from different angles.

To him, it was like a scene playing from a laggy youtube video from a TV show about eastern fantasy stuff. Even his Truth Beast was glancing at the incoming fellows with shock and anger, preparing to defend Dante.

However, while its quality rank was divine, its combat

/power rank was currently at the lowest level. No matter how awesome a level 1 Mewtwo was, it could not beat a level 100 Charizard.

Dante sighed and decided to let this farce come to an end by using a simple Rank 1 Wind Blade spell to behead all the incoming elders as they rushed forward, their faces still locked in confident and malicious smiles as they charged over.

The heads slid off their necks and fell onto the ground, the bodies also losing their support as they charged towards Dante and ended falling into the tiled floor, sliding all the way to Dante’s feet while leaving a trail of blood behind.

Immediately, all movement stopped as everyone slowly parsed what they were seeing with incredulous gazes. Both those on Dante’s side, those against Dante and those who were watching neutrally in order to see what would happen were dumbfounded.

How could such powerhouses be killed without even making a peep? It should be known that many of those who struck had reached the power cap with Rare or Epic beasts in their line up, representing the top echelon of this world.

If they could be killed like this, then what about the others?

A chill seemed to pass through everyone’s heart as their eyes fell on who they assumed to be the culprit, Dante. However, Dante simply chuckled and glanced at the Truth Beast with appreciation.

“Good job, partner, for protecting me against evil.”

As Dante said this, the Truth Beast flapped its large wings and created a small wind storm before screeching majestically. Seeing this response, the hearts of everyone became more balanced as they placed the blame on the Truth Beast.

Well, if it was a Divine Beast, it was normal for it to break common sense, right? But to be so powerful at the first stage… many eyes began to flicker and worry whether they should risk it because if Dante grew, they would all practically become slaves under the Holy Saint Summoners.

However, it was too late. The top powerhouses of the Holy Saint Summoners had arrived and securely placed Dante in their midst, glancing at everyone with naked hostility and rejection. One of them even stepped forth and ‘politely’ told everyone to leave while having all his top-notch beasts face the crowd with killing intent.

This made the crowd feel annoyed and insulted, but they moved their legs quickly and left. No one wanted to be the one to become the scapegoat for the Holy Saint Summoners to teach everyone a lesson.

When everyone left, the elders warmly spoke to Dante and inquired about his experience. Dante naturally shared what he went through and even added some embellishments, causing the Truth Beast to be speechless.

‘My Brother in Christ, I am a TRUTH beast!! Even if we assume I wasn’t directly there and saw everything, I can bloody tell you’re lying!!’

However, it knew which side it was on and naturally kept quiet. It only glanced at the Wyvern by the side who had managed to pick himself up but was unsteady and unsure whether to even show his face given his failure.

Dante also noticed it and smiled. “In truth, I have to thank this guard you sent to protect me. Without his intervention by telling me to activate my Divine Beast’s other ability, I might not have been able to repel those fellows.”

The fellows who had initially ignored the fellow with the mentality of dealing with him later were surprised and glanced over. The wyvern’s face changed but quickly understood that Dante was protecting him and giving him a way out, which made him feel endlessly grateful.

Saint Child… if it wasn’t for the fact I was someone else’s summoned beast, I would definitely do my best to sign a contract with you!

Dante soon resolved the various aftermath matters skillfully. He was soon exclusively taken to the head of the faction, who gave him the details of the technique needed to advance his summoning ability.

Unlike other power systems, he did not select a unique technique for himself but practiced the strongest technique that the faction had, which was incidentally the reason it could rise to dominate the world.

It was called the True Summoner’s Will. It condensed the three different main technique summoners needed to practice into one along with a special technique unique to this faction.

The first was the method to gradually increase their soul power to break through to the next realm and condense another soul tether.

The second was the method to feed one’s beast exclusively produced soul power from the summoner’s soul through the soul tether to the soul beast, gradually increasing its power.

The third was the method to feed oneself the power from their beast, both in terms of stats and in terms of gaining some parts of the beast’s ability for oneself.

The unique technique was the fusion ability, allowing the summoner to fuse one or all of his beasts into his body for a short period, gaining all their abilities and becoming a transcendent being.

That’s right, in this world, the power system was very simple. Each stage was split into stars, from 1 star, which was the weakest, to 10 stars, which was the highest. So when introducing one’s beast’s power, they would say ‘name of Beasts power rank’ and then ‘name of beast’s quality rank’.

For example, the Wyvern was an 8-star Epic Beast.

Summoners also used the star system, but the titles attached were different.

Classification of Summoners in the Summoners World

1 star: Beginner Summoner

Just starting out, and can usually contract up to a Uncommon beast. They have one beast, and this is one of the slowest realms to be in because the beast requires feeding to breakthrough before you could feedback to yourself. Depending on the beast, your SDI can range from 1-50 at the peak of this realm.

2 star: Moderate Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract a second beast, still usually up to the Rare realm for most average people. Regardless of the beast’s rank, it will start from 1 star and have to be nurtured to the 2nd star, while the first beast was likely already in the 2nd star. Speed of cultivation increases from here slightly. SDI ranges from 20-150 in this realm depending on the beasts.

3 star: Advanced Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the third beast, usually up to the Rare Realm still. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases even further, almost 1.5x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 50-300 in this realm.

4 star: Master Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the fourth beast, usually up to the Epic Realm this time. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases even further, now at 1.8x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 80-500 in this realm.

5 star: Grandmaster Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the fifth beast, usually up to the Epic Realm still. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases greatly, now being 3.2x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 120-800 in this realm.

6 star: King Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the sixth beast, usually up to the Legendary Realm, which began to draw a gap between those of the same level. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases even further, at 5.3x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 200-1200 in this realm.

7 star: Emperor Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the seventh beast, usually up to the legendary Realm still. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases even further, at 7.7x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 400-1700 in this realm.

8 star: Saint Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the eighth beast, usually up to the Legendary Realm still. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases even further, almost 9.9x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 600-2000 in this realm.

9 star: World Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the ninth beast, usually up to the almighty Divine Realm. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth increases exponentially, almost 19.4x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 1200-2300 in this realm.

10 star: Divine Summoner

Here, summoners can now attempt to contract the tenth and final beast, up to the Divine Realm. Same rules apply with cultivation. Speed of growth is capped at 30x of the 1 star realm. SDI can range from 1500-2500 in this realm.

Dante collected the technique and most of the important data from this world by going to the library so that he could fill up his database. He then informed the elder that he was going into a special realm with the Truth Beast that existed on a different plane. .

When they heard this, they were worried and skeptical, but Dante forced the Truth Beast to lie, which made it clench its beak with unwillingness.

Of all the masters it could get, why did it have to contract a vile liar, it roared in its heart!

Dante then left the Summoners World and returned to the Home Universe, planning to handle some matters here. However, he immediately frowned when his AI chip received an update from his various bases and networks around the galaxy.
