Chapter 1002: Threatening the Entire City
âSay hello to others.â Nathan smiled. âMy eighth familiar.â
A serpent started to manifest. It was a huge serpent. The size alone was already as big as the main road, spanning over ten meters (33 feet).
More importantly, this serpent had eight heads. All the heads spread around, carefully positioning themselves so as to not destroy any buildings.
The skins were covered in moss and trees, and its belly was red from all the blood splattered on it.
Eight heads rose into the air, scaring the entire city. More importantly, this was a kind of Nathan threatening the entire city.
After all, with such a huge size, the serpent could easily destroy all the buildings in this area.
In addition, there were some other people fighting here, their power would most likely cause a huge devastation to the entire area.
âI wonât be so foolish anymore. You have agreed to make me not get tricked anymore. If you are able to do that, I will lend you my full strength.â
Nathan smiled. This was his choice for the eighth familiar: Yamata-no-Orochi. In the legend, he was known for his size. Even though he wasnât as big as Jormungandr, he was supposed to have a size similar to that of Kun.
It was said that his size spanned over eight hills. Unfortunately, it looked like his size was dependent on the amount of ena in his body, like Kun.
If he summoned Kun with the current ena, Kun would only be 300 meters (990 feet) in length.
It was probably the same as Jormungandr if he chose to summon him later.
Still, the reason he picked Yamata-no-Orochi was because of his legend. Although he was known to be defeated by Susanoo, it was because of a trick. Susanoo gave him a strong liquor to make him drunk and fall asleep before he cut him down.
It wasnât a head-on confrontation. For a god like Susanoo, the reason he chose trickery must be either because his strength was similar to his or even stronger.
That was right. Each of his familiars had their strength, such as Absolute Strength for Fenrir, Healing Ability for Anubis, Chaos for Nidhogg, Sun for Jinwu, Size for Kun, Versatility for Mae, and Harmony for Qilin.
After seeing everyone, what he lacked was none other than the additional firepower to control the entire battlefield. Nidhogg, Jinwu, and Kun could handle the air, but most of the time, Fenrir was the only one on the ground. Hence, with the addition of Yamata-no-Orochi, he wanted to strengthen his fighting power on the land.
Of course, he considered Jormungandr or even Goddess Immit, who was related to Anubis. But Orochi was often known for floods or natural disasters. In addition, he had his own poison.
So, Nathan chose him over anyone else for the eighth familiar.
âThisâŠâ The teachers panicked because of the size. If they attacked Orochi, they might end up destroying the city.
But if they did nothing, it would mean they turned a blind eye to the other partyâs threat.
Nathan stated, âLetâs not start this, shall we? All I ask is for you to stand down and focus on the aliens. Besides, donât forget that weâre still within the cities. If we fight now, the aftermath is not something we like.
âInstead of fighting me, you better evacuate the people from this area. Even if itâs not me, I donât think the others can stop themselves from destroying this area.â Nathan pointed to the side.
ââŠâ The teachers gritted their teeth.
âHow dare you threaten the Axia Academy! Even if you are the famous unique summoner, itâs not your turn to threaten this academy!â An old man leaped into the air and formed a massive energy ball above his head.
Nathan furrowed his eyebrows while raising his head. The moment the old man waved his hands, the energy ball came crashing down. The intense pressure made everyone worry, especially Bella. After all, she recognized that Nathanâs opponent might not be the teachers but this arcane level summoner.
However, Bella didnât know Nathan better than Evelyn.
In the last three months, Nathan had killed countless aliens and increased his ena. Each of his familiars had 500,000 ena in their bodies, along with him, who had 800,000 ena in his body.
Although it wasnât at the arcane level, he was clearly close to becoming one.
In addition, the real training came in the form of magic.
Nathan pointed his finger toward the energy ball and lifted it up. A green magic circle formed in front of the energy ball, but unsurprisingly, the magic circle shattered in almost an instant.
Everyone thought there was no way an arcane level summonerâs attack could be stopped by someone like Nathan.
Contrary to their expectation, the energy ball suddenly disintegrated one second after shattering the magic circle.
â!!!â Everyone widened their eyes in shock. They simply couldnât believe such a powerful attack could disappear just like that.
But this was a new magic that Nathan created. It was a defensive magic similar to that of a barrier. However, the magic circleâs purpose was to accelerate the magic itself.
In other words, for the energy ball earlier, it felt like it had reached its target earlier than it was supposed to, resulting in the ena to disperse.
It was more effective against a projectile attack, which made the trick even more amazing.
In addition, all of Orochiâs throats bulged. The moment the principal landed on the ground, he released a massive amount of water from his mouth.
â!!!â The principal hurriedly summoned all his familiars and erected a barrier, but this water was just not a normal breath. Even Orochi named it Flood Breath instead of Water Breath.
After all, the water gushing out of his mouth was intended to cause a massive flood.
Even with the barrier, the water continued to fill up the academy. It wouldnât be weird if no action was taken during this time, the Axia Academy would submerge under water.
Nathanâs eyes had turned cold this time as he stated, âSince reasoning canât be done, then yes⊠Iâm threatening now. Cease your action and help evacuate the people around him. Otherwise, I donât mind making the Axia Academy my enemy.â
