Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 123: Nathan's True Plan (Bonus)

The Dragon King gritted his teeth and said, "No. There is no need to do so. I…"

The Dragon King looked like he was struggling to calm down and tell his daughter to not go, but that made Alavenya even more sure to go.

Her father must think that he had been forcing her too much. Now that she decided to join the academy, he was overwhelmed with guilt.

Still, Alavenya had caused all of this to the point where Nathan got the core technique of the Dragon King.

That was why she had to go. "No, Father. It is my duty. You have sacrificed a lot for me, so it's time for me to do the same."

The Dragon King looked unwilling, but soon let out a long sigh. He took out Nidhogg's blood and presented it to her. "Take this. I managed to get it from his hand."

"Huh?" Alavenya was confused.

"This was the reason I sent him to you in the first place. It was to acquire the dragon blood—true dragon blood. I thought I could get more if you could build a good relationship with him and make him feel indebted to you."

Alavenya bit her lips before saying, "No. I don't need such a thing. If I summon a dragon because of him, it's the same as admitting that we're lower than him! I will prove to him that's not the case. I'll defeat him with my own power."

Alavenya was angry, both at Nathan and herself. She immediately left to pack up her luggage.

"Daughter!" The Dragon King tried to stop her, but he soon stopped and covered his face with his right hand. Little did she know, a smile appeared on the Dragon King's face.

…

13 days ago.

"If you act angry because I scam you, she will probably come to the academy." Nathan whispered in his ear.

"But won't that trouble you?"

Nathan shook his head. "Looking at her age and ability, it is clear she will join the academy as a second-year student. And in the academy, the first-year students like me are protected by the rule for the first six months. Even after I go back later, there are still more than three months for that protection, so she can't do anything to me during that time. By the time three months are up… hehehe."

The Dragon King understood what he meant. Considering Alavenya was his daughter, he got a good grasp of what kind of character she had and what she would do after his father got scammed because of her.

And for Nathan's plan to work, he truly had no other choice but to get scammed. It would make the situation more believable after all.

"I have told Mr. Mando about my plan. And if you send a letter to him stating you are getting scammed, he will go there and help you with the plan. All you just have to do is act accordingly, directing her to the academy."

And that was what he did.

The Dragon King never expected Nathan's plan would work this well. He thought Alavenya wouldn't accept it so easily.

He figured out the reason right after giving that dragon blood. This was Nathan's last card.

No one would really like to swallow their pride, especially someone strong. That was why showing this blood sealed the deal.

Mando looked surprised, but seeing the reaction of the Dragon King, he nodded his head as if everything went according to plan.

Unfortunately, he couldn't say anything to the Dragon King because of the act earlier. He hurriedly chased after Alavenya like a good subordinate, helping her with the admission to the Frexia Academy. "Miss. Miss!"

…

Meanwhile, Selena couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do with her? Are you going to fight her? I will help if I can, but if she challenges you in Summoners War, I can't join."

"No. Don't worry about it."

"How can I not be worried? The Dragon King will probably give her the dragon blood." Selena shook her head. The Dragon King managed to summon a draconian without dragon blood, so Alavenya must be able to summon an even better being with one, let alone a divine beast.

Nathan actually smiled. "No. She won't accept that dragon blood no matter what. Her pride won't let her."

"Really?"

"Yes. In fact, the plan changed once I saw those terrorists. It was good that everything worked according to plan."

"Changed?"

"Yep. If there were no terrorists, I could only blame her and somehow forced her to the academy. But thanks to those terrorists, I could make her reject that the dragon blood!" Nathan grinned. "That's right. Reject the dragon, return to monke!"

"Good. Reject that lizard." Fenrir nodded. "But it appears you haven't given up on that Monkey King or something."

"Of course!" Nathan nodded with a smug.

"Monkey King? Reject the dragon?" Selena tilted her head in confusion. "Who is this monkey king? You sound like you want to summon him so much."

"It's the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal."

Selena thought for a moment before asking, "Is he stronger than even a dragon?"

"He single-handedly defeated the Army of Heaven's 100,000 celestial warriors, all 28 constellations, four heavenly kings, Nezha the god of protection, and fought equally against the best of Heaven's general, Erlang Shen."

"Oh!" Selena sucked a cold breath, realizing why Nathan idolized such a being. She didn't know who they were, but listening to the accomplishment alone was enough. And the reason he chose Alavenya was probably because she was the most talented one who lived with the beast-people and a woman.

She couldn't help but ask, "So you're going to turn her into your ally and make her summon him?"

"Yes."

"Just an ally?"

"En?" Nathan blinked a few times as his heart skipped a beat. Did he just mess up? He looked at Selena's judging gaze.

Selena soon shifted her gaze back to the road while saying, "It seems I have to grow even stronger."

"What?" Nathan was taken aback by her reaction. He couldn't help but wonder if she was jealous.

Fenrir grinned while following them, thinking, 'Hehehe. Look at you, horny brat. You are definitely going to have trouble with women in the future. It'll be amusing to see how it'll turn out in the future."
