(This chapter is in the POV of the character.)
The game Pandemonium is really revolutionary that even I became high level enough to garner attention from my classmates. Even social status can be elevated if you are mildly good at the game. The nobody that was me has a circle of friends in school.
Using up all the money that I got from part time jobs and gifts are all worth it. Although some people are only acting like my friends because it would benefit them, I also gained real friends in the process. I hang out with them more frequently than those who act like my friends.
I also attract other kinds of attention when I post something on my blog. I do not want to brag but my blog is somewhat famous for being the know how of summoners. I, myself, am a summoner which is why it is important to post your struggles…I mean achievements so that others can relate to you.
I do not want to lie but the donation of those that read my posts are also helpful in my inquisitive spirit in finding out the real power of summoners. For the past few months, the Summoner class has been a hot topic because of a certain player.
Even I am at awe on how powerful all his soulbounds are. He even has a dragon, but his wolf is larger than other wolves that I have seen. The summoner I am talking about is none other than the one dubbed as the Demonic Summoner.
Anyways, my blog became famous because I am one of the summoners who tamed an undead. The undead I tamed is none other than a skeleton mage. I am also the first summoner that publicized that soulbounds could evolve but I doubt that I am actually the first summoner to learn about it.
I am pretty sure the top guilds already knew of this before I publicized my findings. They like to keep things secret after all since they want to be the best. I, however, just want everyone to have fun. I realized that my blog became more famous when I started posting about my daily struggles…achievements about being a summoner.
The first soulbound that I got is actually a little chick. I do not know why but the fact that a chick became my first soulbound because I am allergic to feathers in real life. Thank goodness that this game is not reality or else I would have been sent to the hospital by now.
Everyday has been a great blessing since my subscribers have been deeply invested in my Summoner Diary as I call it. What aggravates me is that my subscribers accusing me that I was creating a made-up story. That day on my Summoner Diary is when I encountered this weird summoner player on a faraway field zone.

Summoner Diary Entry Number 255
Today, I took my new soulbound to a farther field zone because there are a lot of players in the area near the town. My new soulbound is none other than a Warhorse that I will use for transportation but that does not mean that it should be weak.
The Field Zone that that I am visiting is called the Savannah. It is separated into other areas as it is really wide and spacious. The enemies in this Savannah are all monster type that looks like mutated earth animals. All of them just have physical attacks and no magical attacks except for field bosses.
The most formidable monsters in the Savannah that is not the field boss are the Horned Lions and the Armored Rhinos. Even my Warhorse that is famed for having the skill Courageous are somewhat afraid of them. Still the Warhorse will not run away without the consent of the master which is why they are famous mounts for knights.
As I am wandering and battling enemies with two of my soulbounds, I heard the painful cries of a cat monster. After a few more seconds, I then heard the wail of a monster that I have yet to know. My hobby is collecting information about monsters which is why my subclass is Informant. I mainly focus on monsters rather than people though.
"Yes. Great job!" The voice that seemed to be of someone young can be heard from the distance.
The cries of the cat monster and unidentified monster can be heard while the voice of a young male could also be heard. I know it is not proper etiquette to observe other players without their permission, but my curiosity bested me.
What I set my sights on is actually unbelievable even for myself. I saw a player and a young child NPC sitting comfortably on top of a boulder while commanding a large black wolf and unknown undead. There is another monster that looked like a blob of dark colored water which I can only describe as a slime.
I do not even know if that is really a slime since the starting village did not even have slime monsters around it like conventional role-playing games. The sight before me is actually unbelievable because the wolf and the undead are bringing the Horned Lions and Armored Rhinos to the slime for it to eat.
The two monsters could only scream in pain as they are dissolved inside the body of the slime. I wanted to actually ask that summoner player, but I must mind my own business. It is not like that player looks menacing and I am a scaredy cat. I am not going close because of manners or player etiquette.
The next thing that I saw made my mouth widen to the point that I almost drooled. The young child NPC became a dragon that has red and blue scales and brought another Horned Lion and Armored Rhino with its hands. I promptly do not remember anything after that because of technical reasons.

I still cannot believe that my own subscribers accused me of making up a story. I pride myself of being truthful after all. It is fine if they do not believe me because I myself know that I am not lying. I will just ignore the mean comments that I receive like me 'creating a story based on the Demonic Summoner' to get instant fame.
I clearly wrote that the summoner player that I encountered that day is a human player. He must have been a hidden expert that is not setting his profile to public so that he will not get flooded with friend requests to inquire about his unique soulbounds.
I just wish that I could have known what kind of undead he has because my Skeleton Mage evolved into a Lesser Lich. The undead he has looked really cool and villain like that my Lesser Lich bowed immediately upon seeing its coolness.
