Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 362: Fulfilling His Promises

Once one week of rest was up, they picked up several missions, spending half of the month on a mission and another half to absorb the cores.

Of course, Nathan received the remaining mature class cores from Evelyn. In addition to the rest of the cores, he managed to increase the Ena of Anubis and Nidhogg to 10,000.

Still, due to the amount of cores he received from the mission with Flora, he actually surpassed his original goal.

It might not be by a large margin. In fact, he might have gotten a lot more had he saved his Ena instead of summoning his fourth familiar. However, it didn't matter much to him. He had made a decision he wouldn't regret.

As a result, all his familiars now had 10,000 Ena each. In addition, his own Ena had surpassed 12,000.

He knew that Alavenya was most likely to be stronger. In fact, her familiars might have at least twice the amount of Ena of his familiars, while Alavenya might have several times his Ena.

However, this was a good enough point that allowed him to have the confidence to win.

A few days before the banquet, Selena was completely busy with the banquet.

"We need a flower pot over there." Selena pointed to the wall on the right side, directing the maid. "Have we procured the ingredients for the food?"

"Most of them. The rest are ingredients that can expire pretty quickly, so we will only buy them one or two days before the banquet. Some will have to wait until the day of the banquet."

Selena nodded. "Alright then."

"Selena. Stop working for a bit and eat!" Sera waved her hand while raising a bag of food. "If you don't eat, Nathan is going to get worried."

"Where is he?" Selena asked.

"I don't know where he is right now. It seems he has something important to do." Sera shrugged.

"Alright then." Selena grabbed the bag while looking around. "Have the others eaten yet?"

"I saw Regynar and Leon going to the cafeteria earlier. Lovelia is outside. I don't know where Flora and Noelle are."

"Flora is talking with the organizer, while Noelle is working with the security to ensure the safety of the banquet. Well, thank you for helping me here."

"No worries." Sera smiled.

While the two were focusing on preparing the banquet venue, Nathan obviously had to fulfill his promise with Evelyn.

That was why he went to the Sleeping Garden's base.

Evelyn, Bella, Neyeid, and Christopher had been waiting for them.

"Are you ready, Nathan?" Bella asked.

"Yep. I will have Anubis inspect him alone. If nothing goes wrong, we should be able to extract as much information as we can. Have you prepared the questions?"

"Of course. There are a lot of things we want to ask, but we don't know how much this guy knows about them."

"Fair enough. I'm going in to take a look first."

"Yup."

As soon as Nathan entered the room, he summoned Anubis.

"Thankfully, it doesn't seem we need to get more Ena to unlock your domain."

"Yeah. Now that I have gotten all that Ena, I have unlocked three abilities, with one of them being my domain. It's still the lowest level of domain, but it should be pretty effective."

"In that case, there's only one thing to do." Nathan raised his hand, forming a contract.

[In exchange for a proper final judgment that Party C will undergo, Party C will answer all the questions presented by the judges and Party B truthfully. The conclusion of this contract will be supervised by Party A, the summoner of Party B. In addition, Party C will have to abide by the proceeding decided by Party B.]

He made the man sign the contract.

Anubis couldn't help but say, "It seems you have been more comfortable with the contract."

"You noticed?"

"Yeah. You word it in a way that he has to answer our questions and can't hide anything. Instead of 'need' or 'have to' answer our questions, you use 'will,' which means he will answer whether consciously or subconsciously."

"That's the intention. And a proper judgment is indeed a good price to pay, no?"

"Yeah." Anubis nodded.

"Alright. Should we call the others in?"

With Anubis' confirmation, Nathan came out of the room while saying, "We are done. Everything is proceeding properly. Let's take him out and kill him so that we can extract his soul."

"Neyeid."

"Alright!" Neyeid entered the room.

"Well done, Nathan." Bella winked.

"Haha. I'm just fulfilling my promise since you've given me the mature class cores. You can thank me after we manage to extract a lot of information from him."

As soon as Neyeid brought out the summoner, he took a glance at Evelyn. With a nod from her, he slit his throat, which ultimately killed him.

"Christopher?!"

"The curse is getting undone since he dies." Christopher checked his body. "Please wait. It needs some time. Five… four… three… two… one… It's gone!"

"Nathan." Evelyn glanced at Nathan.

Anubis took a step forth and activated his power. An ankh suddenly appeared underneath his feet as it released an ethereal light that made them feel inferior.

"This is…" Bella frowned. "This is a domain?!"

Christopher and Neyeid were startled, while Evelyn remained nonchalant. She only glanced at Nathan while muttering inwardly, 'This light surpasses that of an archbishop. As expected, his familiar is not just a normal beast…'

Within a blink of an eye, they were transported to a golden courtroom.

Bella, Neyeid, and Christopher were sitting in the spectator seats. Anubis had turned into his humanoid form while Evelyn and Nathan sat down next to him as judges.

"Is that the beast?" Neyeid was shocked, staring at Anubis' giant body.

"Nathan… How many times are you going to surprise me? At this point, I need insurance for my heart." Bella sighed.

Christopher only clasped his hands together as though he was praying.

Of course, the summoner had been summoned and looked confused. "Huh? Where is this? Wasn't I…"

He turned his head to the side and saw Nathan and Bella. "You two—!"

Before he was running his mouth, Anubis shouted, "Shut up! You are in the presence of the Supreme Judge."
