Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts - Chapter 1344

Chapter 1344: Request
Nathan knew the cost and the risk of going to the Endless Prison. If he only went with Regina, there was no telling what she was planning to do to him.

However, the trip itself would undoubtedly become safer thanks to her power. At the same time, he had no choice but to share the spoils with her.

As for Luna, she would be a much safer option for him. Even if Luna had a hidden intention, he at least knew it wasn’t going to harm him.

By bringing Luna alone, Nathan couldn’t maintain his relationship with the empire. Although he hated to admit it, he couldn’t afford to have only the dynasty bear the cost against the Death Society.

If he brought them together, Luna could ensure his safety against both the aliens and Regina. He would maintain the relationship with Regina.

But this also meant that the profits would be divided into three. Or he might even get a smaller portion due to his strength.

On the other hand, by making an agreement with Luna, he might be able to get two-thirds of the loot while maintaining his safety. All he had to do was repay Luna later.

That repayment could be anything, but it surely wouldn’t hurt him. This was a much better option. This way, Luna and Nathan would win more than under the previous arrangement because Luna didn’t need the cores but wanted Nathan’s favor instead.

Luna nodded without hesitation. “I don’t mind this arrangement.”

“Alright.” Nathan nodded. He thought about another thing. As Xolotl said, Alavenya and Noelle might not need the medicine. So, he planned to take their share.

In addition, Evelyn had only used two vials before, so he had three more vials to deal with.

Hence, he would take 5 more vials this time. One would be used to create crystal armor for the rest of his familiars. The other four would be used when he had to proceed with the crystal fusion. Judging by how much he got from one vial as well as the difficulty of the crystal fusion, he believed he could achieve the crystal fusion with two familiars with one vial.

And since Xolotl refused to use the crystal form, these four vials would allow him to fully complete the process.

He first planned to use three vials for Vivian, Melissa, and Bella, not because of their relationship, but because Nathan needed them.

After experiencing Frequency’s strength, he believed they needed to get stronger as quickly as possible.

As for Alavenya and Noelle, he would change their gifts to something else. He hadn’t found it yet, but he still had 7 months left here.

Even Xolotl shouldn’t find this arrangement problematic.

What Nathan didn’t expect was that Luna actually demanded, “No, you pay me now.”

“…” Nathan scratched the back of his head. “If I can pay you back, that is fine. Maybe you want something? Money? Or something else?”

Luna just circled her arms around his neck and pulled him to the bed.

Nathan was completely dumbstruck. Luna simply placed her head on his arm and made herself comfortable before sleeping.

‘Is this what people say about paying with my body?’ Nathan smiled wryly. ‘I can’t say I’m not interested.’

…

The next day.

“Can you tell everyone to gather? Hmm, I should be back in two to three weeks. Maybe around that time. Recall Sonia if necessary.”

“What is going on?” Bella asked.

“I’m going to introduce our new helper. She will definitely be of help against the Death Society.”

“Who is this helper? And a woman? This is rather suspicious. Nathan…” Bella squinted her eyes.

“Let’s talk about it once I’m back, okay? I will explain everything at that time. I can guarantee that this ally is definitely necessary.”

Bella sighed. Although she was curious about it, it didn’t seem she would get an answer right away. “Alright. I will call everyone later. I can’t guarantee everyone will be here, though.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Be careful out there.”

“I will. Also, my familiars have been exposed. The second prince’s family has found out this information. He, Death Society’s Frequency, and the emperor’s sister Regina. At this point, I don’t know what will happen next once this information is spread. The reaction will be different from the one on Gratzel because I’m already at this level, not starting from the beginning.”

“What? Frequency? You met him? No, did you fight him?”

“I will tell you everything about it later, okay?”

“No, you tell me now. Nathan. Aren’t you being too reckless?”

“No, not really. My luck was just too bad at a time that it went beyond my prediction. But everything is under control now. Just watch out for their reaction. I will be off to the alien territory for a few weeks. They won’t be able to track me here, even if they want to.”

“You…”

“See you later, Bella.”

“I’m not done with you. Nat—!”

Before she finished, Nathan just cut off the connection. Depending on their reaction, Nathan could be hostile or friendly to the empire. Besides, he didn’t think the empire would go reckless.

Bringing Regina to the alien territory with Luna could allow him to capture Regina to threaten the empire.

That was why he immediately met Regina again.

“I believe it will be better if you come with us. As for the split, the reward will be divided into three.” Nathan had made his decision.

“Ah…” Regina scratched the back of his head. “How about I give you my share? Treat it as my way of apologizing.”

Nathan shook his head. It might be great, but he still had to guard himself against Regina. “Please don’t.”

Regina wanted to persuade him, but if she continued to pester him, he might end up changing his mind about bringing her.

Regina bit her lip. There was no other choice but to accept this demand. This meant there would be a wall between them. If she wanted to approach him, she had to tear down the wall first.

‘Ellenwood. I won’t forgive you for this…’ Regina cursed inwardly. Still, her face was smiling. “Since that’s the case, I agree. I hope we have a pleasant journey, Mr. Nathan.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Nathan nodded.

“Then, let’s go.” Luna acted as if she was excited when she was actually opening her coffin and sleeping inside. Her familiar casually lifted up the coffin, planning to carry it the whole time.

“…” Nathan smiled wryly, thinking, ‘Aren’t you supposed to protect me from her?’
