Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 208: Selena's Trap (Bonus)

"Hehe. It seems this girl is unable to use her power. With all these people, she will be taken out in no time." The principal couldn't help but smile.

"Why are you smiling? You want to take the girl as your disciple, but you want her to fail?"

"It's better to fail now. It will destroy her arrogance." The principal nodded. "She has a bright future, so I don't want her to be arrogant and end up making a huge mistake in the future. It's better to make a big mistake now since she won't lose her life."

"But that girl has been accompanying Nathan for a long time, the one who has seen almost everything he has done. Do you think she will go down without a fight?" Vivian casually remarked.

The principal couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows after hearing it. That was right. She was in the devil's clutch the whole time.

…

"It seems your time is up."

Selena's expression didn't change. She just looked around, finding herself getting surrounded by at least ten people with their respective familiars.

Her job was to bring some water, but it seemed to be not possible anymore.

She could try, but Rudeus would most likely defeat her, especially without Nathan around.

Yin Zhen was ready to fight, but Selena chose another path.

There was one plan Nathan once used that inspired her in this scenario.

"Yin Zhen!" Selena suddenly shouted. At the same time, Rudeus waved his hand down. "Attack her!"

All of them moved forward, but Yin Zhen immediately stomped on the ground, cracking it and kicking up the dust.

"Not good. Everyone, be careful!" Rudeus shouted. She knew that Selena planned to use this smokescreen to run away. It would be dangerous if she took out several of them when they couldn't see. This was the biggest flaw in their plan after all.

"Sandstorm!" One of the familiars raised his hands and started forming a sandstorm, using the sucking force to lift the dust to the sky.

As expected, Selena was gone.

They all looked around and shouted, "Where is she?"

"There!" One of them pointed at the back.

Selena was actually going back to the cave to meet up with Nathan.

"We have to stop her. Don't let her meet up with Nathan. When that happens, even if we can defeat them, we will also suffer a major loss." Rudeus warned them out loud, which made them even more determined.

Whenever Nathan ran away, he would become the most unpredictable person. And Selena, who had been watching him, replicated that saying.

As soon as the people were about to catch up, Selena released her Ena.

"This is…" All of them widened their eyes, feeling the absurd amount of Ena. And that Ena gradually formed a humongous upper body. Ribs made of concentrated Ena started to form as it was extended to the skull and arms.

"Watch out!"

They shouted. Several familiars had also released their attacks.

Yin Zhen kicked the air with his Tiger Kick, its shock wave blowing away the familiars' projectiles. Risa formed a blood field to stop the rest of the attacks.

However, they had to exert a lot of Ena just to neutralize that number. It wouldn't be long before they ran out of Ena.

"Attack her!" Rudeus ordered the cyclops to stop her avatar.

As if predicting his attack, the avatar smashed the steep slope on the side, the shake caused a portion of the soil to collapse and slide down.

"Gnome!" August was the one to react this time.

The gnome raised his hands as a massive stone wall emerged from the ground. Fortunately, he was able to stop the landslide, allowing the rest of the group to catch up.

Little did they know, Selena had another plan. There was a reason she dragged one of the guys and knocked him out.

Selena could see the cave's entrance. Normally, going to the cave resulted in a disaster. But this was actually her goal.

She immediately shouted to the sky; her targets were not the students but the teachers. "If you don't back down, I'll kill this guy even if it means I'll be disqualified!"

Selena suddenly leaped into the cave, causing everyone to halt.

"What? Did she just say…"

"You didn't hear it wrong. No way. We have to stop her."

"Wait!"

The people were confused as to what to do. Even the teachers frowned, observing her action from the sky. They might have to enter the cave to make sure that she didn't do anything reckless.

Meanwhile, Rudeus was thinking hard, wondering if there were any other solutions. If he ordered them to enter, he might lose their support. He knew these people didn't fully trust him, and Selena took advantage of it as well.

Rudeus said, "Five strongest people in this group should enter and negotiate with her. I will try to lower her guard, and since this is inside a cave, the gnome should be able to use the rock formation to protect the guy. We'll take care of her after that."

They looked at each other. It seemed this was the best solution, so they agreed with Rudeus.

Hence, Rudeus picked three members as they headed into the cave.

The teachers were unable to see through the cave from the sky, so they had to enter as well. The same applied to those who were hiding in the boat.

"That's…" The principal looked amused when Anna summoned her avatar. "An avatar? But unlike a normal avatar, she is actually creating a skeletal frame. This way, the avatar will have a more solid foundation, allowing her to increase its power.

"And those bones are actually a concentrated Ena. As a result, this avatar will become a versatile avatar that can attack, defend, or even support. In addition, as long as she surrounds herself with that massive amount of Ena, she is able to avoid any sort of hidden attacks."

Vivian smiled at the principal's shock. "What's the bet again? Shocking you? I guess she has succeeded. Do you know how much talent you need to concentrate on that amount of Ena in your first year? And it's only been three months since she entered the academy.

But it seems you're unable to see her true potential since she is going into the cave."

The principal looked like he wanted to follow them. Although it meant he would end up revealing himself, he had to see it. What kind of plan did she have in mind, especially with that avatar?

Little did he know, the bait this time was not for the students, not for the teachers, but for the biggest fish, him.

When he followed her into the tunnel, that was when he realized what her plan was. His body trembled after seeing what was ahead. That was why his voice immediately echoed in the tunnel. "Stop! The event is now suspended!"

"What?"

While the others were confused, Selena was the only one having a smug smile on her face.
