WOOOO I'M NO LONGER THE WORST SUMMONER IN THE WORLD I FINALLY FUSED ME MAH VEROMOS WOOOOOO HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN THE NEW TRANSMOGS YET HOLY CRAP FRIGATE IS SUPER HOT BUT NOT HAS HOT AS ROCK STAR FRIGATE TRANSMOG – I've actually started writing this immediately after posting chapter 6, so I'm still being fueled with that Summoner's War trailers hype. Are you guys sick of me yet? :D
I've been having a lot of Summoner's War dreams as of late. Last week I had a dream where Isael had a lifelong dream to become a ballerina and dance with Darion (am currently working on writing that) and two nights ago I pulled Chiwu in my dream. It's a sign of things to come, hence why I've changed my flair to "On a quest to find the Chiwu I summoned in a dream."
I read somewhere that Com2Us was considering making a Summoner's War movie. Let's make sure that movie becomes a thing, okay guys? Your friendly neighborhood Summoner's War obsessed girl has money she wants to spend to see the movie.
P.S. I'm also starting a new thing, where I give a brief summary of each chapter, like with anime episodes on Viewster.
P.P.S. If you haven't noticed, I've removed "How to Kill a Parasite" from the list. I won't update the previous lists when I finally do finish it because hoT DAMN I DON'T WANNA GO BACK AND UPDATE, LIKE, EIGHT LISTS.
Summary: The world is losing its mind. The glitch-monsters that are Japan exclusive are appearing when people fuse them and replacing the already-fused four stars, the bosses of Cairos Dungeon are appearing on earth, and the three Summoner girls and their monsters are called upon by Durand to patch things up around their town.
I clicked on the TV to have some white noise in the background while we tried to figure out what was going on, not expecting what I was going to hear. The glitch-Jojo had since been sent back to Vivian's island, and I already explained what I knew about these monsters.
"Apparently," I had begun, sliding my headphones off and gingerly placing them on the coffee table. "There's a law in Japan that bans gambling. By this, I mean that they banned players being forced to have to hope that they pull monsters from a Mystical Scroll and can't be farmed from Secret Dungeons. The technology in the Fusion Hexagram was changed in Japan.
"The recipes have changed there, so that the materials needed to fuse these four-star monsters can be farmed in Secret Dungeons completely. However, there's also a catch that came with this modification: Apparently, monsters come out of the hexagram imperfect. They have to be awakened twice if they were to become normal and then awakened like regular monsters. The upside to this, though, is that it's easier to fuse monsters and if they're made "perfect" they can't be used in fusion, so you don't need to awaken them in order to use them as material." Velajuel's eyes closed as he processed this new information.
"I see. Why do the monsters seem to break when they're taken out of Japan, though, and why is it that Vivian was able to fuse an imperfect Joker?" I racked my brain for a moment, trying to look for an answer.
"I suppose it could be for safety purposes, so that people don't go to Japan, fuse some monsters and then go back to their country so that way they could've gotten an easier fusion. How Vivian managed to fuse it, though, I don't know. It's Japan-exclusive." It was around then that I clicked on the TV. It was turned to the news. It seemed like time had stopped to listen as the reporter tried to present the facts as calmly as possible.
" – and in recent news along with the bug in fusion that causes people to fuse Japan-exclusive "imperfect" monsters and replacing all previously fused four-stars, the Ancient Giant, Legendary Dragon, Ancient Lich King and the Guardians of all elements have been appearing all over the world." The attention of all three of us were brought to the television, listening to the newswoman go on.
"Scientists are baffled at the strange appearances. There have also been reports of some doors to buildings leading to Trial of Ascension floors. The Council of Summoners has not yet spoken about the issue and we eagerly await to see what they say." At that moment, Vivian's phone started buzzing, and soon enough, my own tablet started to vibrate. I reached onto the table to check what it was: a message from Durand. From the look on Vivian's face, I could assume that she was also getting a message from Durand. The message was quickly opened up on my side.
"I believe you've heard about the bosses and Trial of Ascension floors appearing everywhere." He began.
"There's nothing we can do about it right now except to close up all portals and defeat all the bosses around the area." I immediately went for a question.
"How do you expect me to do those?"
"We've figured out that if you can clear the floors, they'll close up and the bosses will disappear for that town." Surely there was some reason why he was telling me all this, right? I was onto him and suspicious.
"And what does this have to do with me?" The redheaded, smug jerk grinned at me and responded.
"We're going to need you, Vivian and Sapphire to clean up all the anomalies around your town! Right now, we've gotten reports of two portals to the Trial of Ascension and the Ancient Giant." I opened my mouth to chew him out and he cut me off.
"Oh, by the way, the difficulties have been significantly increased, as if there were a Trial of Ascension Hell or B11. Don't worry about the bosses, though – lots of Summoners will be fighting to defeat them, just like in the World Boss." My eyes widened in a mix of shock and rage.
"No no no no no Durand I haven't even fused Veromos yet and I don't want to work with Vivian you can't expect me to be able to do this by myself!"
"You three are the fastest learners we know! You'll be fine, friend!"
"Durand please no no no no –" He hung up on me. You can't just do that to a girl, you people. I looked up desperately at Vivian. She was smiling, and just for a second, I thought that maybe; just maybe, I was going to have fun doing this new challenge.
"Well, no time to waste. Let's get to work!" I called for all my monsters, before stopping and addressing Vivian.
"Oh yeah, I finally grinded up enough transmog stones to transmog one of my monsters." Vivian looked intrigued.
"Who'd ya get?" Before I could say a word, the hungover complaints of Frigate rang out as he stalked into the room. His silver hair was mostly hidden by the black and white cap turned backwards, the rock guitar in his hands still shiny.
"Friga –" I was cut off again by what possibly sounded like someone exhaling with all their force really quickly. Even Velajuel jumped at this sudden noise, turning to Vivian. Her eyes were wide and one hand was covering her nose and mouth.
"Are you okay?"
"Y-yeah, I'm fine…" She was betrayed by the fact that a spot of blood had appeared on her cheek.
"…You have a nosebleed, don't you?"
"So what if I do?! I'm a girl and he's hot don't judge me!" I gave up at that point and buried my face in one hand.
"At the very least, do you need to clean up before we go?" Velajuel spoke for her.
"This happens many times; she will be fine." I heard a roar outside – five roars, actually. Please don't tell me there's a T-rex outside my house. I internally mused before rushing out the door. (Yeah, that was an actual dream I had once. As Vivian would say, don't judge me.) I did not see a T-rex outside my house, but instead five Dragons; one of each element, along with Ariel, Fermion and Galleon. Of course, else did I see standing in front of them but Sapphire, grinning away like a madman?
"Lemme guess, you got a message from Durand that says the three of us need to clean up anomalies around town?" Her own phone, which looked nearly identical to her sister's (save for a small sticker of a Devilmon near the camera), was in her hand and she was fiddling with it.
"Yep. What's with the dragons?" I gestured towards Zaiross, who stared at me as if I insulted him.
"Oh yeah, these're all mine. I figured that we'd want to get to the town faster, so we'd just take a ride on my dragons." I opened my mouth, not really sure of what I was going to say.
"I call dibs on Zaiross!" Vivian shouted, rushing outside.
"Too late. I already called dibs on him." Sapphire shrugged.
"FINE. Verad."
"Mav gets him. You remember what happened the last time we tried to give him Grogen, right?" I looked up.
"He sat in the corner and cried and wouldn't budge until I said he could ride Verad. It was both the cutest and saddest thing I've ever seen." Sapphire shook her head.
"Oh."
"Can't I use your second Zaiross or second Verad?!" I'm pretty sure I screamed "WAIT WHAT HOW MANY DO YOU EVEN HAVE?!" in the distance.
"Zaiross isn't awakened yet and Verad needs to be maxed out. You can have Grogen." Vivian whined.
"But I don't WANT Grogen!" I raised my hand.
"I'll take Grogen." More than anything, I was glad that Jamire didn't like me – light and dark monsters are cool, especially if they're dragons.
"Alright, done. Vivian gets Jamire, and Galleon will be on Zerath." Vivian shot her index finger up.
"Only if her Frigate is with Galleon." She motioned towards me. I gave her a blank stare.
"…I'm not sure why, but alright." It was at that moment that I noticed her Galleon. He was transmogrified as a Full Metal Hero, white hair ruffled as if it had been in the wind. Galleon leaned against Jamire and glared at Frigate, who, of course, was already drinking.
"I don't want to fly with him. He's a gross pleb who drinks too much." Galleon's voice was gruff and husky, yet sultry at the same time somehow.
"Do not." Frigate slurred through his beer.
"You're literally talking to me right now while you're drinking." I sighed.
"Galleon, don't even try. Living with this guy made me realize that same cases are hopeless." He glared at Frigate for a while before turning to Zerath. It was around this time that all my other monsters came out, shouting and hollering about "adventures" As much as I hated them, I could never temporarily send them back to my island. I said this to Sapphire, who gave me a blank stare for so long I wondered what I said wrong.
"This is exactly why I built 16 300-speed Bernards." It was my turn to give her the blank stare.
"…But why?"
"I wanted to see how many I could six-star and rune to be 300-speed in a week. Was aiming for twenty, but I'll stick with 16." She changed the subject to helping me onto Grogen. Within ten minutes, we were off and in the air.
Riding on a Dragon in the sky is one of the most exhilarating and thrillsome experiences I've ever had; I'd honestly never forget it. Just so you can somewhat get an idea of what I'm talking about, I want you to picture all five elemental Dragons high up in the sky, three girls on three of them, a Mav on Verad and two Pirate Captains on Zerath. There are about ten or eleven Bernards behind them, a monster on each, and four of the Archangels in front of them all, Charlotte on the back of Eladriel. All that was needed was Artamiel leading the way.
Oh wait, that did actually happen.
Yeah, I kid you not. The legend himself appeared, a Racuni on his back and leading the way of our team, sword in hand. Some say that Artamiel is a myth, and others say that only the best of the best can summon him. One thing was for certain, though: I was best friends with the owner of Artamiel.
