"Is Mr. Lewis dead?"

Alan's question echoed in the quiet library room. Eryk let go of Alland's embrace.

"Wait here. I'll check," Eryk said firmly.

Eryk stepped to the side of Mr. Lewis' seat. The man's odd and lifeless facial expression looked like a mannequin's. Eryk could barely meet the man's eyes that were once full of kindness.

Eryk checked Mr. Lewis's wrist to ensure there was no pulse. His skin was still warm and soft.

"He's dead, but it happened recently," Eryk said regretfully.

Without Eryk noticing, Alland was already standing beside him. The boy's face was red, and tears were ready to burst from there.

"Why?" asked Alland, sobbing. "Mr. Lewis has never hurt anyone. He helps people. He was always kind to the whole club."

Alland slumped beside Mr. Lewis. It was then that Eryk noticed Mr. Lewis's hand was tightly clenched, and inside, he could see something white.

"Control yourself, Alland. Look, there's something here!" said Eryk, pointing at Mr. Lewis' clenched fist. "He mus

    "Aarrgh!"Alland screamed somewhere not far from where Eryk was standing. The boy was attacked by a giant spider.Eryk was about to approach the boy, but something hit his side, and he fell. Hot and sticky liquid sprayed on Eryk's face. The liquid dripped from above, and Eryk realized it was saliva from a giant spider's mouth.One of the spider's forelegs, which had black hair, held Eryk's arm. The weight of the spider's arms forced the air out of Eryk's lungs. The spider's pair of red eyes stared at Eryk with its clawed mouth closed. Then, the mouth opened slowly, only a few inches from Eryk's face.Eryk was sure the spider would soon sink its fangs into its tender flesh. He also felt the lizards rushing away as if terrified of the spider."If I were you, I wouldn't move," Black Widow said.Eryk turned away from the spider's legs with great difficulty and saw that Alland had also been pounced on.Black Widow stood not far from the spider, still pinching Eryk's chest. The woman snappe

    "Eryk!" Allan shouted.The boy saw the direction Eryk was going and tried to catch up with him. The gunfire stopped as Alland caught up with Eryk along the corridor.They passed through several doors before arriving at a set of stairs that led down. Eryk jumped three steps at once, and Alland hurriedly followed him. At the bottom of the stairs, Eryk pushed open the men's room door. There is a head-high window above the sink."Eryk, stop!" Alland shouted. "The police are on our side!"Before opening the window, Eryk glanced at Alland."No, Alland. They are not on our side!" said Eryk.With extraordinary agility, Eryk climbed beside the sink. He opened the window lever but had trouble pushing it. He decided to kick the window open, and the lever broke."Eryk, we can explain what just happened to the police. They will believe us! Did you forget? My dad is the head of the prison," Alland said, trying to convince Eryk. He didn't climb with Eryk.Eryk was still busy and trying hard to open

    "We go to my place and call Alyssa on Dad's cell.""Don't you have your own cell phone?" Eryk frowned. "Today's children are always facilitated by gadgets."Alland looked irritated. "But not with me! After all, this city's access and use of cell phones are severely restricted. Only certain people can own a cell phone, which must be registered. There isn't even internet access here.""Good grief! I almost forgot that this city is really complicated." Eryk grumbled.Eryk was lost in his own thoughts as they rushed to Alland's house. The tension from the chase had just died down. Eryk's feelings were burdened."You're not wrong, you know that!" muttered Alland. It was as if the boy could guess what Eryk was thinking.The two watched each other for any police presence as they hurriedly made their way down the deserted sidewalk. Black is seen waiting at the intersection. However, Eryk didn't see White there. Maybe she is angry.Black will croak twice if the path ahead is clear and once if

    "Keep me locked up?" Eryk could hardly believe what the crow was saying. Out of curiosity, he pressed harder on the doorknob to confirm. Eryk's skin crawled. Exhausted and annoyed, Eryk looked back at Black. The crow raised its lungs to say, "What did I say?" Eryk put his ear to the door. The noise from the TV made it hard to hear outside sounds. "... for the good of all of us..." said Mr. Jarvis. The man's voice rose and fell, and only heard fragments. However, Alland's voice sounded louder. "But, Eryk has nothing to do with that! I swear!" Mrs. Jarvis cut in, "You're still a child, Alland. You don't understand what happened. When everything is clear, you will thank us." "Please, Dad, no!" "Just this once, Alland. Hear our verdict!" said Mr. Jarvis in a loud voice. "It has been decided. I'm calling detectives. We're going to have a police car brought here!" "Don't!" Alland shouted. "How can you?" Eryk began to understand the situation that was happening out there. Eryk's eye

    "Calm down... don't overreact. I can understand. You haven't interacted with humans outside your lair for far too long." Eryk was getting annoyed. "You broke into my house without even permission!" The young man shouted loudly while threatening and pointing a dagger. "White, let me come here. And I've been watching you for a long time. Surely you remember me, right? My name is Barbro." "I don't care what your name is. Get out of here before I kill you!" The homeless man grinned. "Looks like you're getting better at killing people. Usually, you should just kill without needing any prior warning. I consider you a fine young man, Bird Control." "Stop calling me that! My name is Eryk." "Is it right?" Barbro smiled oddly. "But you talk to the birds, don't you? Not only your white owl but also the crows and other birds? Please, Bird Control... I mean, Eryk. We have much to discuss. You're… a summoner, I presume?" Eryk's face paled. He tried to breathe calmly. "So what if I could tal

    "Dad?" Alland whispered softly while keeping himself from moving when Eryk threatened him with a dagger."Eryk, get down!" Mr. Jarvis once again called him from downstairs.Eryk felt his heartbreak. Time and time again, he felt cheated and betrayed by those he trusted."You directed your father here?""Not!" Alland said with conviction. His face looked pale. "No, I didn't do that!"Eryk hissed beside Alland. The boy was almost up to Eryk's chest, and he could easily see Alland's expression."I swear, Eryk. I didn't bring him here. He must have followed me secretly."While still threatening Alland with the dagger, Eryk peeked out of the nest. His heart sank at that time too. There were a lot of cops down there—at least three of them circling the tree with Mr. Jarvis."I saw that young man!" said one of the policemen, touching the gun at his waist."Don't use it!" said Mr. Jarvis fiercely. "We don't know what he was

    Eryk, as well as Barbro were both on guard. They stood back to back while watching the moving bushes around the church. The next second, a group of men emerged from the bushes. Eryk counted at least ten of them. However, Eryk felt strange with these men."You know them, Barbro?" Eryk whispered behind Barbro."These green humans?" Barbro pouted and looked displeased at their appearance.White was perched on Eryk's shoulder. They noticed the green men who wore uniform black suits. Their bodies look proportional and muscular. It's just that their skin is green and not like humans in general.Their heads are also bald. Even up to the scalp is green, you can see a little horn growing there. They all wore sunglasses."They're not human," White said calmly."You mean they are summoned spirits?"No one has answered Eryk's question yet. Suddenly the ten men with green skin walked over and surrounded Eryk in the middle of the churchyard. Two pe

  • The Last Chosen Summoner   38| Summon Spirits Mansion

    Alyssa and Duri stood at the helicopter's door to welcome Eryk and his friends. Alyssa looked as usual—with a cold face and minimal expression. The girl was not wearing a qipao, and Eryk thought Alyssa wore a school uniform. It made him a little disbelieving. The girl's hair was left loose and a little messy because of the wind blowing from the helicopter blades."Welcome to our home," said Duri. "Sorry for the greeting if it was a little harsh."The plant summon spirit always made a displeased face at White's presence. His hands were made of two leaves folded to his chest.This was the first time Eryk saw Duri's average size. The summoned spirit doesn't disguise itself as the brooch on Alyssa's clothes, nor does it resemble the giant tree it had in the landfill.Duri is only a 50 cm black rose. He stood on two legs made of roots and two hands made of leaves. His head itself is a crown of black roses."Damn plant summons spirits," White hisse

    Alyssa and Joker, accompanied by Wanda, meet the Lightning Summoner. He is a tall man with a large spear weapon that can emit electricity.The man sat opposite Wanda in a cafe. Meanwhile, Alyssa and Joker stood not far from them but could still hear their conversation."Is it true that the weapon made by Iron killed Kayes?"Flash, the Lightning Summoner, looked very surprised by the information that Wanda had just conveyed.Gloomily, Wanda nodded. "That's right."Suddenly, Flash stood up and yelled angrily in front of Wanda."Why was Kayes just killed now? Did Iron mean to frame me and make me the culprit? Was Iron also the one who snatched the sealed summoned spirit from Sandra's hand? Was he the one who killed Sandra that time?"Wanda was furious. She stood up straight with her back to the cafe window and glared at Flash."Why are you asking me that? I should be the one demanding answers from you. Because only you and Iron rejected Sandra's decision to sell the sealed summoned spiri

    "Joker?" shock Alyssa and Duri together.“Belinda?” asked Joker, who was no less surprised when he saw Alyssa's appearance at his weapon shop.Alyssa growled and clenched her fists. "Don't call me by that name!""Oh, sorry, I forgot. However, among the Guardian Summoners, you are known as Belinda the viper.”"Joker, what are you doing here?" asked Alyssa. "Shouldn't you be level nine?"Joker shrugged his shoulders. “You can see for yourself. I'm trading here. How could I pass up an opportunity to make money? I can easily sell my collection of antique objects here. You, I mean you guys, what brought you here?”Alyssa took a deep breath. He pulled a stool in front of the table and sat down without being invited.Joker came out from behind a counter displaying various types of rare weapons and went to the mini fridge to get a can of soda."You look really tired," Joker said as he handed Alyssa the cold soda."Yes. There's a lot going on here. And I feel no progress. Even though I have to

    "I don't agree with that method!" the other Guardian Summoner members protested. "That strategy will harm the villagers.""That shouldn't worry you. Because the villagers you are referring to here are none other than the summoners themselves. Each of them should be able to fight and protect themselves. And the villagers should not relax but join in the struggle with us against the destroyers.""But-"Alyssa glared at the stubborn young man. "The battle this time was completely orchestrated by me–Alyssa Harris, vice-leader of the Guardian Summoners. Please obey my orders!"After the meeting did not go smoothly, they finally disbanded. Alyssa returns to town, where her inn is. He walked accompanied by Duri.Duri appears dressed as a warrior, although his skin is still green. Duri's body, in its original form, looked firm and muscular. He always escorted and watched over Alyssa.As soon as they entered the city gates, Alyssa and Duri gasped in shock.

    After the main prize was given, which was won by Eryk, suddenly, the vast, boundless field has now turned into a city. The town's appearance resembles the cities on levels one and two.Eryk and the other participants realized that the field they had just seen was a floating island where the arena matches were usually held.Lizard immediately ran away as fast as his foot could take it. But, the testers seem to let it be."Why did you let him when you found out he was cheating?" Rosemary shouted at the level three examiner through the loudspeaker before her."According to the rules we have explained," replied the examiner. "The only rule in the land of shadows is to deal with summoners who kill each other. The examiners and organizers will not take any action concerning theft and other crimes. But, because now you are still in the level three area. Even though the match is over, I still give the same rules."Rosemary suddenly grinned and glanced at Eryk. They both nodded their heads at e

    Returning to the centre of the competition arena was much more troublesome and difficult than leaving it to seek the outer limits of the field. Eryk got lost several times and walked too far. However, they started to find summoners running last and slowing down."We are getting closer to the centre of the arena. In a moment, the centre of the field should be visible.""Hey, Young Man!" said the turtle summoner who strolled. He rides his turtle. "Why did you return to the centre of the arena? Did you find the limit? You should have crossed that line to survive.""Sorry, Old Man, it seems we failed to find the outer boundary of this field. Too vast and impossible. We haven't even reached it after an hour of running.""Gosh, if you guys who are as strong and as good as this can't even find it, what about my turtle who strolls and me? How many hundreds of years would it take us to get to the outer limits of the field? This is simply impossible. I could return with you and repeat this exam

    "Watch everyone!" exclaimed the examiner through the loudspeaker. "We will immediately carry out the challenge at level three without rest. You will be able to rest after going through this challenge."Everyone was making a fuss. They haven't finished calming down after the tension in the previous level two challenge. And now, when they arrive at level three, they hope to rest for a while but are offered the next battle instead."I'm a kind examiner!" said the figure through the loudspeaker. "I will not burden you with serious and difficult challenges. There is only one challenge this time. You have to find the boundary of this field. Only the first 20 participants who manage to find the field's outer boundary will be selected and will qualify for the next stage."Everyone was whispering. The remaining 40 summoners will be eliminated in half. Everyone started to get excited and threw away the tiredness and tension before. Now they welcome new challenges to defend life and death."Spec

    "Trying to kill us with this stuff?" quipped one of the summoners.But she still dared to open the gift box. Her eyes immediately lit up when she saw a beautiful dress there."Wow! How did you know I wanted this beautiful dress?""Time to open the gift box!" shouted a food summoner. He let out a scream as he earned so many gold coins."Eryk, what did you get?" White asked.Eryk opened his gift box and got a giant clam shell made of crystal."I don't know if this thing can be of any use? How about you?" replied Eryk.White opened her gift box and showed a pen made of goose down. The cell has solid toxic ink."Oh, I got some golden hairclips here. Not too bad," said Rosemary.Then they turned Black."Why haven't you opened your gift box yet, Black?""I was too scared to open it. I'm not sure if I deserve a prize? I've never had a surprise before," said Black, who looked such a melodrama when he received his first gift box."Just try it," said a summoner. "Your gifts are quite interestin

    "The competition has just started," muttered someone in front of the level two area surveillance monitor.The figure in the black robe pressed a button.After rescuing the summoners almost mired in the crater, Eryk and the others started to rush off to find another place with fewer traps."We should head back to town. This forest is not safe at all. And I'm not sure there will be an exit in this forest.""I'm sorry," said Rosemary. "I have already given the wrong advice.""There's nothing to be sorry for, Rose. We are all struggling and trying our best."They returned to the city. While on their way to the plaza, they saw that many summoners had died, trapped in a battle, or by attacking each other with their teammates. Everything was prepared by the testers at level two."In fact, I suspect this level two area has no way out," Black said defensively. He was still carrying Rose on his back.While in the city centre, Eryk accidentally found a building slightly different from the usual

    "Crow summoner spies?" Eryk asked. "I guess that's a bit impossible. If it is true that this land of shadows upholds rule and justice."Their conversation was cut short by an announcement."Participants, we have a little surprise for you on this wild night. The competition will be carried out earlier than the actual schedule."The two summoned spirits, Eryk and Rosemary, were surprised to hear the sound from the loudspeaker. Even though they are sure that a new competition will be held tomorrow morning. Suddenly the schedule was accelerated tonight, and they had no preparation."Testing at level two this time is a bit different. You don't need to come to the arena. We'll do it out in the open."Eryk and the summoners on the second floor also clearly heard the announcement. They all started scattering out of the house and their respective comfortable places.The summoners gathered in the plaza and filled the streets with panicked faces. They need clarification.Midnight and they were f
