Almighty Summoner System

The moment he successfully contracted the Rogue Red Termite, Ban did not waste any more time as he immediately ordered for it to join the battle against the Hermit Termite.

The newly contracted Beast did not hesitate even for a second as it immediately went and joined the fray even though it was still injured.

Ban also did not stay idle as he also joined the battle.

His [Skill] Reinforce only has a duration of 4 minutes. It has already ended a while ago but it was no longer needed anyway. With Eva's speed, the Red Hermit Termite could not even touch her shadow much more than hit her.

Eva's [Skill] Wrath was also nearing its end. Ban planned on ending the battle before it happens.

And with the addition of the Rogue Red Termite, the battle immediately concluded when the Red Hermit Termite lowered its guard upon seeing the approaching Red Rogue Termite.

The Hermit Termite screamed for the last time as it angrily gazed at the traitor, Rogue Red Termite.

And at the same moment that the Hermit Termite died, the System virtual screen suddenly materialized itself in front of Ban.

[You successfully killed a Red Hermit Termite!

An immature Beast Core could be extracted!

5x Red Cave Rock could be extracted!

The Red Hermit Termite's Eyes has a special property that can calm monsters that tend to get nervous. Could be sold to the merchants for a high price. ]

Ban was taken aback by the sudden appearance of this screen.

As far as he could recall, when he killed the Night Worm from before, it did not display this kind of message.

However, he then recalled something that he keeps on forgetting. It was the '!' sign that he was about to check earlier when that girl, Belle interrupted him with a slap on his waist.

"System, check what's on this red blinking mark?" He requested.

The Almighty Summoner System immediately complied and showed the content of that exclamation mark.

[System Logs: 1 Unread!

You successfully killed a Lord Grade Beast, Night Worm.

A Lord Grade Beast Core Could be extracted! (Finish!)

5x Night Worm Horns could be harvested! Can be used for weapon making! Can be sold for a high price!

Night Worm Mucus could be harvested. Can be used as an ingredient for poison making. Can be sold for a high price.

]

Reading the content Ban could not help regret at the waste of resources.

He already knew that the Night Worm's body part is valuable but he never thought about trying to sell them as he might get into trouble with it.

If he sold them with his status as a newly awakened, the influential people might suspect him of being an underling for the Dark Guild.

Ban doesn't want that as his main focus right now is to get stronger and start searching for those who abducted his gramps in front of him.

In his two years in the city, Ban has already confirmed that those white robe men do not belong to this city.

At first, he even suspected that those people are what the Adventurers address as the Dark Guild, however, after learning the outfit of the Dark Guild which was a black coat, he immediately discarded them from his list of the possible people that abducted his gramps.

Of course, he also did not rule out the possibility of them just disguising themselves during that time, so the Dark Guild was still on his radar.

"Wait, I recalled that an Adventurer could choose to hide their identity while registering as long as they are proven to never have colluded with the Dark Guild."

A certain mask then appeared on his mind as if reminding him of the correct direction he should follow.

Ban could only sigh in defeat as he retrieved the Ant Mask inside his Dimensional Storage.

[ [Item] Ant Mask!

A mask forged from the face of a rare Lord Grade Demon Ant.

Effects:

-Complete deter: The eyes of the mask have a deterrent [Skill] attached to them. People will be afraid to look at you while wearing this mask.

-Total Conceal: No one can recognize you while wearing this mask, not even those who are close to you. Not even those who are one Realm higher than you could recognize you with the Ant Mask on. Your voice will be altered in every person that hears it.

This [Item] is indestructible upto people who are a realm higher than the user.

]

Aside from the term indestructible, Ban really did not find anything good about this mask. All of its effects are literally just to hide one's identity. Which he thought he would not need to.

However, he realized that in order to get stronger quickly, he should not be hindered by those 'influential' people. He needs to forge a new identity that could hide his real one from the eyes of those influential people.

Ban observed the appearance of the Ant Mask and he had nothing to say about it. He doesn't have any sense towards fashion as he and his gramps would only wear the same kind of clothes everyday when they were still living together.

In fact, if he did leave the forest they were living, he would not even know that there's another form of clothing aside from the one they were always using.

The Ant Mask has a dark red color that almost looked like the color of blood. Aside from the mouth area, Ban imagined that all of his face will be covered if he wears the mask right now.

The two antennae protruding on the mask's forehead could even be mistaken as a horn if one did not observe carefully. It's huge eyes that have the deterrent skill have the same color as that of the abyss, pitch black. The two mandibles extending from the lower jaw look like they would snap at the next moment.

Ban has no problem with its appearance. After observing it for a few moments, he finally decided to put the Ant Mask on his face without worry and haste.
