Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 313: Jinxed

Nathan and Sera were standing in front of three people. The oldest one was a man with two swords on his waist.

He was wearing his school uniform instead of other armor as though he had imbued enchantment into the uniform.

His spiky brown hair and cheeky grin made such a confident face.

Next to him was a woman. She had smooth, long brown hair, which was similar but different from the first guy at the same time.

She had a rather different temperament compared to the first guy. The first impression Nathan had on her was calm and collected, as well as mature.

The last one had long blue hair tied into a ponytail. His eyes had been ogling on Sera. It was pretty much clear what his thought was.

Titus was smiling wryly. "These people are from the Duxia Academy. Likewise, these two are from the Frexia Academy. This will be a joint mission between the two academies to subjugate the bandits."

"Please introduce yourself."

The one who began was from their side. "I am Lees Relast, a second-year student from the Duxia Academy. Next to me are Lisa Relast and Eliot Gret. They are both first-year students."

He extended his hand to Nathan with a confident look, as though he thought he was better than them simply because he was the only second-year student.

Obviously, his objective was to become the leader of the party. Normally, the Frexia Academy had been on top of them the whole time, so having authority over the Frexia Academy's students was satisfying.

On the other hand, Nathan simply extended his hand, his face saying that he wouldn't lose against him but, at the same time, showing no aggression. "I am Nathan. This is my partner, Serafina Dialanta. We are both first-year students."

"!!!" Lees raised his eyebrows. He instantly recognized these names. In fact, he didn't expect that the beast summoner and the saintess would be their partner.

Serafina had much better status than them. Even his status as a noble and a second-year student couldn't help him get the leader's position.

In addition, Nathan was a unique summoner. He had heard a lot of things about Nathan, especially rumors that he was secretly the number one person among the first-year students.

As a result, his status was pretty high within the academy.

That was why he realized he might not be able to get the leader position.

However, Nathan said, "Because this is a joint operation, how about doing things according to our own original plan? However, because you're the oldest, which means you have the most experience here, you should set the main plan. It's just… I hope that you also consider our opinions if they're reasonable."

Lees was shocked that the other party seemed to have a broad mind. He acknowledged him personally and chose not to have a conflict.

It appeared the rumor was true.

Less nodded while shaking Nathan's hand. "Agreed. If that's the case, why don't we have Baron Titus to brief us about the bandits?"

Nathan nodded before turning to the baron.

Titus smiled, feeling relieved that it didn't turn into a conflict. After all, Nathan and Serafina's identities were simply too much for him to handle.

"Please sit down first."

As soon as they were seated, Titus immediately took out the wanted posters and a map. "These are the bandits. We believe their stronghold is somewhere around this area."

He circled a spot in the southwest of the forest.

"Do you have any basis they're here, Baron?" Lees asked.

"Yes. I do. We have been sending our scouts around the forest. As you already know, the Land of Alba is directly next to the alien territory, so our scouts are much more experienced than other scouts.

"And according to our scouts, there is a sharp decrease in the number of aliens in this area."

"So, you're assuming they have been killing the aliens here… Since it's their place, it's normal for them to thin out their number to make it safer…" Less nodded in understanding.

"Yes."

Nathan couldn't help but ask, "Do you have the locations of the mature class aliens?"

"Why are you even asking their locations? We are here to subjugate the bandits, not to kill mature class aliens," Eliot snorted.

Nathan's eyebrows twitched. Sera, who usually couldn't understand Nathan's plan, realized something after he taught her a few things. "Knowing their locations means knowing the danger. If their location is close to the base, we have to fight the bandits as quickly as possible, not causing too much damage and noise that will bring them into the battle."

"W-Wha—!" Eliot looked shocked when Sera rebuked him.

Lees was much calmer and assessed their opinions carefully. "That's true. Although the aliens will attack all humans, the bandits have been living in this forest, so they will most likely be able to avoid these aliens. Besides, a mature class alien will definitely bring a lot of lower level aliens."

Baron Titus looked troubled as well. "As you might have guessed, one of the mature class aliens seems to be near their location. The last time it was sighted, it was around this area."

He pointed at the spot west of the suspected stronghold. It wasn't that far either.

"This is troublesome. If that's the case, we might have to enter the forest through the south to avoid the mature class alien or through the east, even if it means making our way through the forest." Nathan rubbed his chin.

"My scouts have been entering the forest through the south entrance. We will give you the detailed map, so you don't have to worry about it," Titus assured them.

"Is that so? That would be a great help." Lees felt relieved. Still, he was quite surprised that Nathan was able to see all that. 'He has a great sense and good judgment. I guess it feels reassuring to have him with us.'

Eliot pumped his chest while saying proudly, "Don't worry, Baron. Leave everything to us. We'll definitely solve this problem with ease."

Nathan's eyebrows twitched as he was screaming inwardly, 'For fuck's sake. I have stopped everyone around me from jinxing the situation, and yet, this random person whom I met not long ago ends up jinxing it for me? Can I sew his mouth?'
