"It would be unfair if you started a fight against Sam. How about we start with me as a fellow bird summoner?" bargained Barbro."Well, fine. No problem," said Eryk. "Whichever I'll try."Barbro sat in the nave beneath the missing white cross. He sat hunched over the empty altar table, and his legs dangled from the edge."Are you ready?" exclaimed the dove summoner."Come on, Eryk!" shouted Black from the balcony above."Give him a lesson, Barbro!" Sam shouted next to the crow."I am ready!" said Eryk.Barbro whistled like he did back in Eryk's lair. Then there was the roar of hundreds of doves' wings that descended from the roof beams and landed at Barbro's feet."Okay, that's an awesome start," muttered White, tilting her head."I can't stand it," Black whispered, covering his eye with a wing. "Can the albino bird compete with hundreds of pigeons?"Eryk stretched out his arms and summoned the birds with the power of his will. Eryk felt warmth rising from the bottom of his stomach. T

"Power of will," said the dove summoner. "And With frequent practice! Because my ability to control spirits was not inherited from my parents. I got it myself through effort and searching.""So-"Barbro interrupted Eryk. "Even if that ability was inherited from your parents, you still need to train it. Everything doesn't happen naturally. Like when you were a baby. You also need to practice eating. Is not it?""Teach me then!" said Eryk."It took months," said Barbro. "No, years of intense training. There isn't enough time.""I can learn quickly," said Eryk, trying to sound more confident than he actually felt.Barbro smiled. "Even if you could do that, you're not a fighter, Eryk. The people we will face… are brutal. No mercy."Black and White joined them at the bottom of the stairs. Black's beak was tightly clenched, showing tenacity."We can't give up, Eryk. We can't just hide.""Why are you so excited?" quipped White."Is it right?" asked Barbro. "Stay here with us. We'll be safe."
The Last Chosen Summoner 53| Sneaking Away in the Middle of the Night
Eryk had a dream. A dream he had never had before. Eryk seemed to watch as a tall, pale stranger moved the knocker on his parent's house door. The moonlight glistened in his snake ring."That's Venom. Do not open!" shouted Eryk. But no sound left his lips. The door opens by itself.Eryk felt the horror that sent him flying. This time, Eryk entered his parents' house and stood behind Venom.The door slammed shut behind them.Eryk saw his parents standing side by side in front of the dining table. On the table were two half-filled wine glasses. Eryk's mom faced Venom with determination. The folds of her white dress fluttered around like bird wings. It was as if she controlled the air around her."Get out of my house!" Eryk's mom ordered through clenched teeth.Eryk could see the sweat glistening on his mother's forehead as if she was exerting herself."I won't say where it is!""Do not come close!" shouted Eryk's dad. He stood next to his wife, brandishing a fireplace stick.Venom just
The Last Chosen Summoner 54| Empty Apartment Unit for Hideout
"What place is this?"Eryk and the others stood in front of a luxurious apartment building in the middle of Rockwool City. Eryk carried Alyssa on his back. He bent slightly and occasionally corrected Alyssa."This apartment is one of Master's properties. Several units are still vacant. For the time being, we can hide here safely.""Okay, we'll take Alyssa to where you want to go. After that, we have to continue the search. You're okay if you're left here alone with Alyssa?""Yes. We will be fine," replied Duri.Eryk led them into the apartment building after placing the key card in the scanner by the door. When they were about to enter the elevator, another resident noticed Eryk."Are you all right?" asked a middle-aged woman. "Is she hurt? I think you should go to the hospital." The woman looked worried for Alyssa.Eryk became awkward. He just realized that not all humans can see summoned spirits. Only summoners can see the presence of the summoned spirit. At this time, the middle-ag
The Last Chosen Summoner 55| Police Line in Abandoned Park
Eryk and the two summoned spirits flew across Rockwool City and returned to the abandoned playground. The playground was covered in a lot of police lines. Eryk watched from one of the tall trees nearby. Indeed, there was not seen any human movement, let alone the police. However, Eryk remained vigilant and didn't take any risks by returning there."What are we going to do here?" Black asked. "You don't think you're returning to the lair?""I need your help," Eryk said to Black and White, who were perched on a branch above his head."I knew this would happen," Black grumbled."Only if you want. I still have White. She would never refuse my request."The white owl didn't argue. She only turned her head 360 degrees to express her approval and was ready to accept any task, even if it cost her life."Of course, I will help. Don't we have the same goal? Revenge for the actions of those who have hurt us, "continued Black.Eryk nodded firmly. "Your job is only to find out whether cat summoner
The Last Chosen Summoner 56| Head to Black Hill
"What are you thinking? You don't look okay," White sneered as they walked together to find the Joker's house."My parents did everything they could to protect me so that the line of bird summoners would not be broken. However, I can't control various birds like my mom. I will ensure their deaths are not in vain," said Eryk."Your parents sound very brave," Black said. It was as if the crow could read Eryk's mind. They had arrived on the other side of the river. "You must be proud.""I think so," Eryk said again.They started up the river's north bank, where arched structures line the embankment. Shops and stalls are closed at night.His newest dream is an ever-present shadow. The screams of his parents as the snakes enveloped them sounded like a faint echo. Eryk didn't feel ready to tell White yet, not when his horror was so fresh.All his life, Eryk let bitterness towards his parents grow. But now it feels like the anger is misdirected. It was Venom who deserved to be the target of

White led them across the street. Eryk followed her. Now there was an odd silence as they left the busy city center. Even the air felt different, cleaner, and fresher.There were no streetlights to illuminate as Eryk, and the two birds flew along the winding road up the hill. It didn't take long for the sidewalks to disappear, either. Then the two birds flew away until they were barely visible. They passed between the pine branches.Eryk looked at the trees but could see no further than a few yards before the darkness engulfed the trunk. Occasionally they passed the driveways of houses and the sketchy form of settlements far away from the road.Eryk's nerves tingled. He often looked back. He felt as if something or someone was watching him. Going to a new place always makes him nervous. The farther away he was from the familiar place, the more worried he was."Are you sure the way through here?" Eryk asked. His voice sounded thin and hollow.Under normal circumstances, no one can hear
The Last Chosen Summoner 58| Joker's Collection of Old Objects
"You're visiting the wrong people's house, Young Man!" said the man in the clown costume, pushing the door as hard as he could.If only Eryk had thought carefully about this meeting before. Everything depended on what he would say next.Joker tries to close the door again. At that moment, Eryk realized something was wrong. Without much effort, Eryk pushed open the door quickly. It was as if Joker didn't have the energy to close his door before Eryk.Eryk immediately grabbed the man's hand, wrapped in white gloves. And at that time, Eryk was increasingly convinced that the figure behind the clown costume was a different person from what Eryk had imagined about the Joker figure."Tell me where your father is?" Eryk asked."What? Father?" Black and White, who were also paying attention, wondered.'Is that figure in the clown costume the son of the Joker? Is the real Joker really in Rockwool prison?'Only Eryk and the costumed clown figure can answer that."My name is Eryk Wayland. I'm a

118 | The Fall of the Wall, The Rise of Hope
Rockwool City was in chaos like never before. The poor, long confined behind the massive stone wall, began to rise. Armed with torches and whatever tools they could find, they marched, shouting for freedom and justice. On the other side, the wealthy living in the better part of the city panicked, afraid that the rebellion would shatter their comfort.Eryk stood atop the main tower of Rockwool City, looking down at the chaotic crowd. Beside him, Ravenclaw stood with a serious expression.“Eryk, we can’t let this go on. If this wall doesn’t come down, they’ll kill each other,” Ravenclaw said.Eryk nodded slowly. “I know. This wall is a symbol of injustice that has divided humans and summoners for decades. If we want to build a new world, this wall has to fall.”But before Eryk could decide his next move, Joshua Wayland appeared. He stepped forward with a hateful smile.“You really want to tear all this down, Eryk?” Joshua asked. “This wall is the last line of defense for those who deser
117 | The Blood Feud of the Wayland Legacy
After months of strategizing and climbing the ranks in Black Lake City, Eryk finally reached the peak of his success. Wayland Corp, once in ruins, now stood tall under his leadership. With the influence and wealth he had amassed, Eryk earned an exclusive invitation to a secret meeting of the Destroyer Summoners in a hidden fortress outside the city. But he never expected that the gathering would unveil shocking truths about his family.In a vast hall illuminated by candlelight, Eryk stood composed, even as his heart pounded. Before him sat a sharp-eyed, commanding man on a grand throne. That man, known as the leader of the Destroyer Summoners, was none other than Joshua Wayland—Eryk's father.“So, you've finally made it here, Eryk,” Joshua said, his voice low yet commanding. “I've been waiting for this moment.”Eryk’s gaze burned with confusion and anger. “Father? So, all this time… you were alive? And you’re the leader of the Destroyer Summoners?”Joshua rose from his throne and appr
116| Rise of Revenge
Eryk Wayland stood under an old oak tree, a white-feathered owl perched calmly on his shoulder. Lyra wasn’t just any bird—she was Eryk’s first summoned spirit, born from his family’s summoning bloodline. But Eryk’s powers were far from perfect. After the tragic death of his family, he was determined to become a strong summoner and avenge them.Eryk had tried everything to enhance his abilities, but every effort seemed to hit a dead end. One day, he heard from a traveling merchant about a legendary summoner called Ravenclaw, known for mastering bird spirits. However, this summoner had been imprisoned in Rockwool City for being "too dangerous."This news sparked a glimmer of hope in Eryk. He devised a wild, high-risk plan: to turn himself in and get into the summoner prison. To do this, he faked accusations of murdering his uncle—a respected village head—to draw the attention of authorities. The plan worked, and Eryk was sent to Rockwool’s summoner prison.Rockwool prison wasn’t your or
115| Want to get back to the level it should be
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. Above the fortress gate that protecte

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
111| The Healing Potion Thief
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
