Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 352: Suspicion (Bonus)

Iskar had been watching them the whole time. He was completely shocked when Nathan's familiars were able to take down the mature class aliens.

"He is this strong? No way. Shouldn't a first-year student have the ability to take down a juvenile class mutant, not the mature class alien?

"Does that mean the Sage is truly using him as a trump card? In addition, what is that bird? It can utilize the power of the sun. The domain is also quite worrying. Still, does he plan all this?

"No. The sudden encirclement should have caught them off guard. That means he can summon such a terrifying bird with no preparation…

"This is his true talent. If this continues, he might grow strong enough to… maybe fight a mature class mutant before his second year. This is simply too terrifying. No wonder the Sage pays attention to him.

"Even if he doesn't, this kind of talent will become a threat to us. We can't let him grow whether the sage is watching from afar or not. Then again, there's no sign of the Sage here. Has the sage left his side? Is this our chance to attack? There's a possibility that the Sage has realized this is not a natural occurrence. I can't risk it. He might be hiding, waiting for me to strike him.

"I should wait like my master said." Iskar squinted his eyes. "Nevertheless, I have confirmed how much of a threat that guy is. Our organization should pay close attention to him. Besides, the prophecy states that an ultimate destruction that will impact the whole world will occur next year. There are still two months left before next year.

Iskar raised his head, feeling a bit cold. "In that case, enjoy your peaceful two months, Nathan. You will have to die next year."

Iskar disappeared into thin air.

…

"Raaaa!" Fenrir roared while unleashing all his strength and ripped apart the wound, enlarging it. The blood spurted out of the worm's body as the worm wriggled in pain. It was trying to do something, but its strength was leaving him.

It wouldn't take long before the worm succumbed to its wound.

Looking at this made Brunhild clench her spear tighter. She couldn't help but grit her teeth. 'This is not good. He keeps getting stronger. I can't even do much to this worm, but he is able to kill it. If this continues, I won't be able to avenge my lord…'

'Still, we have been fighting on the same side for a while. How come I did not notice that he had become this strong? At the very least, he was not this strong in the last mission. After all, if he was that strong, he would have taken care of his enemies much faster.

'Does that mean he has grown this strong in just a week? No. This is impossible. I don't think he has gotten mature class cores.

'What is going on? How come he can grow this strong? Is it because of his divinity? No, I have never heard of something like that, even in Asgard.

'Even in the prophecy, it's not like he's growing in an instant.' Brunhild couldn't help but think of one reason. Her eyes eventually stopped at Nathan.

'That's right. Nathan might have done something. Even Nidhogg told me that Nathan holds the power to bully Fenrir.

'Does that mean Fenrir's sudden growth is related to him?' Brunhild couldn't think of any other reason. At the same time, even with all her memories and experiences, she couldn't recall a single thing that allowed such an explosive growth.

'This is weird. What kind of power does he have to be able to grant that kind of power? Well, Nathan himself has become extremely weak. It seems granting Fenrir power costs a lot.

'Still, the kind of ability that can give such explosive growth… I can't think of anything other than divine abilities. Does that mean Nathan has a divinity? This is impossible. Isn't he supposed to be a mortal?'

Brunhild bit her lips. No matter how hard she thought, she could only conclude Nathan had a secret.

And she ultimately reached the same conclusion as Nidhogg. It was to seduce Nathan. In the end, Nathan had the ultimate power to bully Fenrir.

'Do I… really need to resort to such an immoral thing to punish Fenrir?'

While Brunhild was facing a dilemma, Flora was quite shocked to know that the three mature class aliens had been taken care of.

Blood was leaking from her mouth, right eye, and a few other wounds. She stared at the mutant, whose condition was much worse than hers. The mutant was bleeding everywhere. More importantly, his chest had an inward dent, as if the organ around that area had been squeezed, his waist was completely scorched, and his left arm was gone.

Even though Flora had the same questions as the ones Brunhild had in her mind, she had to focus on the alien in front of her.

'Thanks to the sun bird, I'm able to progress this much. I should be able to take down the mutant in three minutes or so. There is one problem. Will there be another reinforcement coming?'

Nathan was thinking the same thing. He regrouped with Sera and said, "I will need you and your familiars to take down the rest of the aliens. I want Fenrir and Jinwu to conserve their strength."

"Are you worried about the enemy's reinforcement?"

"Yes. There are still five mature class aliens in the area." Nathan nodded. "When you help those people from the Blacksmith Guild, I want you to order them to split into two groups. The first group is to go back to the mine to rescue the miners.

"The second group is to scout the area around, making sure there's no reinforcement. Choose only people with good conditions. The injured ones will help inside the mine after I heal them later."

"What about you?" Sera asked.

"I need time to formulate a plan and secure the escape route in case of an emergency."

"Alright. I hope—!" Sera immediately covered her mouth as Noel did the same. Both of them realized they almost screwed it up.

Nathan said, "Don't say it."

Sera nodded furiously.

Nathan let out a long sigh. He really needed the location of the remaining five mature class aliens.
