Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Nathan and the others once again stood in front of Elder Thompson. The elder had a serious face, as though there was a problem.

However, it turned out to be a false alarm. Instead, he was politely bowing to them while saying, “I have heard about the situation from the people. You didn’t abandon them despite the overwhelming odds. And I heard the boy end up summoning a new familiar. It must be without the preparation.

“I’d like to express my gratitude and apologize for all the trouble. It’s thanks to you that we are able to save so many people.”

Flora smiled. She glanced at Nathan while saying, “It’s fine, Elder Thompson. I trust his decision.”

“Hahaha. To think that the princess thinks highly of him…” Elder Thompson chuckled. “He must be a good guy.”

“Of course. He even wanted to compensate the people from his own coffers. He felt responsible because his decision to fight the alien first had caused some people to succumb to their wounds.” Flora didn’t hold back when praising Nathan. She didn’t plan to take the credit he deserved.

Elder Thompson nodded, knowing her intention as well. “Don’t worry. The Blacksmith Guild will properly compensate them. Thanks to you, the mine is not destroyed as well, although that’s not important right now.”

“According to the agreement, the reward will be a piece of equipment made by your elder dwarf. In that case, please make his equipment, not me.” Flora pointed at Nathan.

“Ah! Actually, I have told the current head of the Blacksmith Guild regarding the earthquake. It didn’t take them too long to understand it. And they confirmed the movement of the ground, which would allow us to do proper research about this phenomenon.

“As such, they are planning to reward you as well. After hearing it, I couldn’t help but think, ‘Why don’t I be the one to give you the reward?’ Hence, I’m planning to give two pieces of equipment, so you don’t have to be reserved, Princess Flora,” Elder Thompson explained.

“I don’t need it. You can give that to her then.” Flora pointed at Sera. “I can simply get equipment from my family.”

Elder Thompson turned to Sera, but before he could talk, Sera had raised her hand, stopping him.

“No. I don’t need any pieces of equipment. If I need one, I will simply ask my teacher, the Pope. Besides, this is for my training and my teacher has agreed. So, just give it to him.” Sera pointed at Nathan.

In the end, both of them pointed at Nathan, telling Elder Thompson to just give two pieces of equipment to Nathan.

“Woah. You’re blessed, young man.” Elder Thompson chuckled. “When I was at your age, let alone a girl taking care of me, I would have been happy if there was even a random girl talking to me.”

Nathan smiled weirdly.

Elder Thompson thought for a moment and summoned his elder dwarf.

The dwarf looked old, but he looked clean, as though he hadn’t touched the forge earlier.

Elder Thompson introduced him. “This is my elder dwarf, Zalton. His skills are among the top five in the Blacksmith Guild. He will be the one making your equipment.” He turned to Zalton. “This is Nathan, a summoner from the Frexia Academy. We have finished our discussion. Can you make two pieces of equipment for him?”

Zalton nodded and walked toward Nathan while extending his hand. “Zalton.”

“I’m Nathan. Thank you in advance.” Nathan shook his hand.

To his surprise, Zalton frowned after shaking his hand. He raised his hand and noticed there were no calluses on his palm. “You’re not using weapons?”

“My weapons are gloves right now. And I’m using my Ena to attack.”

“Can you show me?”

“Zalton. How about bringing them to your workshop?” Elder Thompson asked.

“Fair enough. Follow me.” Zalton nodded. Sera and Flora followed them because they were curious about the equipment Nathan had in mind.

They reached the workshop in less than five minutes. The workshop was made of cobblestones and separated into two rooms. The front room was for display and testing. The back room was where his furnace was.

Zalton pointed at the armor stand in the corner of the room. “How about attacking that armor? It has special material, so I want to see your power and your fighting style.”

“In that case, I will just use normal bullets. If I use explosive bullets, other items might be hit.” Nathan nodded.

“Oh?” Zalton hurriedly pushed away the shelves, isolating the armor stand. “Use everything you have.”

“Alright.” Nathan first used normal bullets from the straight path to the curving ones that would follow his bidding. After that, he released the explosive bullets. Last but not least, he showed the composite bullets, which surprised Zalton.

Zalton looked down, contemplating. “To be honest, I don’t know what weapon I should make for your fighting style. A wand might be good, but while your hands don’t have calluses, your muscles are refined. That means you are throwing punches, right?” freewebnvel.coɱ

“Yes.” Nathan was impressed. As one would expect from a dwarf, they really could see it.

“In your case, it seems you should get a weapon. Looking at your physique, you must be relying on your speed and strength, so I can’t suggest heavy armor. In that case, a light one will be good. As you are a student from the Frexia Academy, you can probably upgrade your uniform with better material. Or do you want me to upgrade your uniform personally?”

Nathan thought for a moment. He could either contribute to the academy or rely on his teacher to upgrade his uniform. But he needed to fight Alavenya soon.

“Please upgrade my uniform.”

“In that case, I will use light-weighted materials but with good resistance and reduce the impact. As for your weapon… I don’t have a suggestion because I might need to create a new weapon that has never existed in this world. Do you have something in mind?”

“Actually, I do.” Nathan nodded and took out a paper from his pocket, showing it to Zalton. Flora and Sera couldn’t help but take a peek at the weapon.

“I’m planning to have this weapon. It’s called Gun.”
