Chapter 1084: Titles
“Sorry, but… What’s with this Magic Empress thing?”
“Is that even important?” Nathan smiled wryly.
“Not really, but I’m curious.” Evelyn shook her head.
“That’s what they call you.” Rena chuckled. “You should know that once you become an arcane level summoner, you get some sort of title, right? Although the titles won’t be as flashy, even I have my own title. They call me Yellow Flash simply because I’m much faster than the others and this blond hair of mine.
“This title is usually cultivated and popularized as you grow stronger. When you become a world class summoner, this title will stick to you. You should have heard of the Sword Saint, the Sage, the Flame Emperor, or even your teacher, who will become one in the future, the Forest Queen.
“After seeing your strength, the people from the Liaystian Kingdom created a nickname for you. Because you are able to have two lifebound contracts and even fuse them, they decide to call you Magic Empress.”
“Hoho…” Nathan was amused. “Magic Empress, heh?”
Evelyn fell silent. It looked like they had misunderstood her current situation. If not for Nathan, she wouldn’t be able to fuse these two elements.
Besides, thanks to Nathan using his innate ability, it ended up being known. Everything was her fault.
Rena then glanced playfully at Nathan, saying, “Though, there is a lot of talk about your title, Nathan.”
“Huh? Mine?” Nathan pointed at himself while tilting his head. He didn’t particularly care about titles. Besides, he was only a grandmaster.
“Yeah. With your current growth, you should be able to reach the arcane level in a few months at most. You will probably be able to become the youngest world class summoner in the future. The only one who can rival you is probably your disciple, who is currently at Frexia Academy.
“Right now, you are only 17 years old. At this pace, there’s a chance for you to become a world class summoner before you are 20 years old. Even Elysion Aquamoon broke the previous record by becoming a world class summoner at 23.
“Usually, they call you ’Unique Summoner,’ but your strength and growth speed are simply too absurd. At one point, someone even called you the Beast Sovereign.”
“Beast Sovereign?” Nathan smiled wryly. “Won’t that cause a conflict with the Beast Kingdom?”
“Hahaha. True.” Rena looked like she was enjoying the drama from that name. She raised one finger. “Still, there’s another reason why it just fits. You are like a beast… literally. Look at how many women are around you.”
“W-Wha—!” Nathan dropped his jaw to the ground. “Beast… as in that kind of beast?!”
The laughter grew louder as Rena thoroughly enjoyed his reaction. Even Evelyn looked away while covering her mouth as if she were having a hard time holding her laugh.
“You…” Nathan was speechless. There was a sudden urge to destroy the world by joining hands with the alien. How could they even give him that nickname?
’I might love women, but I’m a gentleman. How dare they compare me to those lustful beasts! Are they considering me as one of those lustful young masters whose only purpose is to get beaten by the protagonist and call their uncles, parents, grandparents, and ancestors? Fuuckkk!’
Nathan gritted his teeth. “Who was it? I don’t plan to join politics, but I think it’s fine to kill one politician or something, right?”
Rena patted Nathan’s shoulder before giving a playful answer, but with a serious face. “Do you think I’d know such a thing? I’m just receiving the report as it is.”
“…” Nathan facepalmed.
“Anyway, come in.” Rena opened the door for them. This was the same room they used during the previous meeting with Flora or Vivian. She then waved her hand. “I will get some stuff first. Enjoy your time.”
Once Rena exited the room, Nathan could only sigh helplessly. “Why is my luck so bad?”
“You beast… Pfft.”
“You… Even you are messing with me right now? Where’s all that emotionless face and lack of reaction?!” Nathan complained, but he was secretly happy that Evelyn had gradually overcome her trauma after destroying the Divine Hand.
“Sorry.” Evelyn took several deep breaths to sweep away the ticklish sensation in her stomach from the joke. “Actually, sorry.”
“Huh?” Nathan felt something was wrong. The second ’sorry’ was unnecessary, and her voice made it feel even more serious. “Well, I’m not really mad about the title. You don’t have to apologize since it’s not your fault.”
“No, I’m sorry for revealing your innate ability. Because of me…” Evelyn explained herself, hanging her head low.
“Ah, that…” Nathan scratched the back of his head. It was true that getting revealed like that would cause a lot of problems, but it wasn’t like he planned to hide it for long.
“It doesn’t matter. It’s bound to be revealed sooner or later. Besides, even if it’s revealed now, we’re planning to leave the continent for a while. By the time I return, I should have reached the arcane level. At the very least, I will have enough power to run away. Then again, my innate ability and your space element make running away easy.
“The only problem is when they’re dispatching multiple world class summoners just to do something on me. No, that might not be a problem at all.
“After all, you will fight alongside me, right?”
Evelyn’s expression turned solemn. “Of course. This is my fault. I will definitely stand beside you on this matter.”
“See? The problem is gone.” Nathan raised two fingers. “Someone I respected a lot once said, ’Rather than thinking whether my choice is correct or not, I should focus on following what my heart chooses and use my wisdom to think about how I should handle the things that will come after that decision.’
“In other words, since it happens, so be it. Just deal with the incoming people. For now, they can’t do anything because I’m still monopolizing the magic weapons. A large number of magic weapons have been distributed, but they’re not enough yet.
“However, if we just stay for another few months or even a year on another continent, they will believe they have enough magic weapons not to need me anymore. That’s why I’ll be safe for now and have enough strength to resist the future.
“Besides, I already have some plans for upgrading my magic weapons.”
Evelyn closed her eyes, feeling relieved. “I understand. If you need anything, just ask me.”
“Yeah. But I have one question. I felt like you had mischievous intentions after I owed you a favor. What was the original request you were planning to make?”
“!!!”
