Chapter 50 Nathan's Choice

Combat Department.

August took a step with his right foot and leaned his upper body forward. His hand gripped the sword's handle tightly.

When he was about to move, his eyes glinted as he drew his sword as fast as possible.

The moment it was unleashed, the Ena that had been stored inside the scabbard flew out, extending the blade in a crescent shape and hitting the dummy that was 5 meters (16.4 feet) away.

Unable to withstand the impact, the dummy was sliced into two as the upper part slid down to the ground.

"Huu..." August exhaled in relief. It seemed that he had succeeded.

"Congratulations, August. You have managed to master this one swing. You can start learning other moves, which will become the foundation of your swordsmanship." Another student came in August.

August didn't say anything. Instead, he was staring at Landark who was defeated by Nathan previously.

"Raaaa!" He roared while waving his right hand vertically and his left hand horizontally.

His Ena extended his claws, similar to Nathan's Deadly Claw, and sliced the practice dummy into pieces.

However, after that arrogant challenge, other students didn't think highly of him anymore.

"Landark must be frustrated. Even if he does well in this class, he won't be able to defeat Nathan."

"Right? In the end, his werewolf will be suppressed by Nathan's wolf if they fight in Summoners War."

"He better not meet Nathan during the event since it will be game over for him."

"I know right?"

Landark could only grit his teeth because that was true. He just used that frustration to increase his strength even further.

"Go forth!" Rudeus waved his hand, shooting out Ena. It produced a light trail that curled toward the practice dummy before bouncing to another dummy.

The minotaur followed the trail and slashed the dummy with his axe before spinning his body to change direction and head to the second dummy.

"Indeed. If he comes here, he will know what his familiar is all about. In fact, he might be able to discover why he is the only one having such an ability."

"I bet that there are a lot of teachers wanting to dissect him."

"Hahaha."

Selena's eyebrows twitched. The longer she listened to them, the colder her expression became.

At one point, bloodlust escaped from her eyes, but it was quickly dispelled by Sasha, who waved her hand in front of Selena as if telling her not to mind their words.

"..." Selena scratched the back of her head. She didn't know why their conversation annoyed her so much. She knew Nathan's personality and power. All those words and actions made her feel indebted to him. Even Sasha was proof of his kindness.

Fenrir might be the one telling her about the lilitu, but she doubted Fenrir would tell her about it unless Nathan begged him.

Selena harrumphed quietly and just focused on her own research.

...

Magic Department.

Nathan was sitting with his familiars.

"Isn't that guy staring at us a lot?" Fenrir asked casually.

"Who knows? He might be curious but not have the courage to ask, or maybe he is just here to observe us. Either way, it doesn't change my plan here." Nathan shrugged.

"Oh? You already know what you want?" Anubis asked.

"Yep. I'm planning to learn long range combat with my Ena." Nathan nodded with a smile. "The moment I saw the power, I knew what I wanted."

"And that is?"

"Others have known summoners and Ena before they came to the academy. While I can learn it slowly, I still need to catch up. As a result, I can't pour too much time into this training, which is why I think of simplifying what I want to get double the result with half the effort."

"Are you going to spew another bullshit?" Fenrir's eyebrows twitched, remembering how Vivian became his teacher after eating those bullshits.

"Hahaha, nope. There is something that I don't need to learn as much as other weapons like a sword, a spear, or a bow, but it can become more deadly than those weapons." Nathan had a cheeky grin on his face. "The weapon that dominated my current era."

"Hoh? What is that, summoner?" Anubis had taken an interest in this unique summoner, who somehow captivated Fenrir.

Nathan raised his finger and said, "Gun!"
