Novel Full Chapter 87: Nathan’s Choice
“Hahahaha. She is going to surpass you!” Fenrir laughed out loud.
“That’s true. You will have no choice but to follow her from now on.” Anubis also did the same.
Both of them looked happy after Nathan shared Selena’s talent. He was silent the whole time, watching these two betray him.
“Now you finally understand that you need to get power before women.” Fenrir grinned.
“I agree with him this time.” Anubis nodded. “You can get all the women you want if you have power. If you can’t get them, that means you don’t use enough power.”
Nathan sighed. “You guys are always saying power, power, power. I admit that you guys are correct, but I’m a guy who likes to enjoy the moment as well. It’s not about the end goal for me. The progress, the journey, the scenery… I want to experience it all.” Nathan shrugged.
“Yeah, but it didn’t change the fact that she was attracted to you because of your power. If you didn’t summon us, would it be the same?”
“…” Nathan’s body shook as he tried to refute it. “This bro is charming. Besides, I can create art!”
“Art? You haven’t even picked up anything that can be called art.”
“Bullshit is an art, you don’t know that?” Nathan shrugged.
Fenrir clicked his tongue while Anubis asked, “Still, it doesn’t change the fact that she is more talented than you right now. You might be able to raise your talent as you raise your level, but she will probably shoot up so high that you won’t be able to catch up to her by that time. It’s not like you’re going to accept if she gives you the cores, right?”
Nathan looked away, unable to deny all those claims. “Maybe I should just focus on myself and get as much Ena as I can to increase my talent. After that, I will abandon you two instead of sacrificing my Ena.”
“You dare!” Anubis stood up while Fenrir shouted, “I’m going to bite yours off so that you can’t chase women if you dare!”
Nathan let out a long sigh.
“And who is the divine beast that gives you that confidence? You said he came from the same myth as me, but because I was locked up back then, so I never met him.” Fenrir asked.
Nathan opened the briefcase Alisha gave him earlier, showing a root filled enormous amount of Ena. There wasn’t a single leak on the briefcase, so they didn’t realize it contained such a powerful material.
“What is this? I can see that it’s possessing as much power as I do at my peak.” Anubis frowned.
Fenrir squinted his eyes. “A tree root?”
“Yep, specifically, the divine tree’s root.” Nathan nodded. “I’m planning to summon a dragon that gnaws at the root of the Yggdrasil. A divine tree’s root is the perfect substitute for it. This dragon is known to have the power of chaos and destruction.”
This was Nathan’s choice because they were limited to resources and information.
“Heh? Is he strong?”
“Well, compared to other dragons that I know, he is strong, but not the strongest.”
“Not the strongest?”
“There are a lot of strong dragons after all. For example, Tiamat. She is the primordial dragon goddess representing the chaos of the ocean.”
When they heard the example, both Fenrir and Anubis looked at him in disgust.
As if he knew everything about him, Fenrir said, “You give that example because you think she will have a human form and create a harem of your own, right?”
“…” Nathan fell silent, not denying or confirming. He ignored it and added, “There is also Fafnir, a greedy dragon in the same myth as you Fenrir. Or Quetzalcoatl, a serpent dragon from Aztec Mythology, or Shenlong, a dragon god that controls the weather. I might probably need to gather seven dragon balls to sacrifice before I can summon him, anyway…
“There are a lot of examples, but I’m not very sure what items I need to sacrifice and how I can get those items. Meanwhile, I can get this root easily because of my teacher. Hence, I plan to summon Nidhogg.”
Anubis couldn’t help but ask, “If that’s the case, shouldn’t you use money to bring out that greedy dragon?”
Nathan pointed at the root and said, “This one is free.”
“He probably meant to use the money to bring out a dragon and use the root for another familiar.”
“I don’t know what I can summon with the root alone. Am I going to summon the Yggdrasil? But I don’t think a tree is considered a beast, right?”
“Fair enough.”
“Anyway, I’m planning to have this new guy and you two to have 1,000 Ena each before the next event. Of course, I’ll also have a similar amount of Ena,” Nathan explained.
“For that, you need to hunt a lot of aliens.” Anubis nodded in agreement. “We’ll help as much as we can.”
Fenrir nodded, so Nathan asked, “Speaking of helping, Fenrir, I need your strength enhancement so that I can absorb the mature class core. I’m planning to absorb the proto-class first so that I have enough to reach the good quality again. With this, I can get 2 Ena per core, which means getting more Ena when I swallow the mutant and mature class cores.”
“Sounds good enough.” Fenrir agreed to lend him and immediately established the contract.
After all the preparation was ready, Nathan sat down on the bed and started swallowing the cores one by one.
As soon as he finished all the proto-class cores, he moved to the mutant core. Nothing happened like Vivian said, so he could proceed with the mature class core.
The mature class core was actually a little bigger than the proto-class core, but the Ena concentrated inside was much more potent.
He was slightly nervous because Vivian had to inspect him first before giving him the permission to swallow it.
The moment he devoured this core, Nathan learned why she needed to do that.
“!!!”
Nathan’s eyes rolled up as his body fell to the bed and arched before he started screaming. “Aaaahhhhhhh!”
