67 Summoning Ceremony (2)

A vendetta called us.

And the expression achievement.

In these two words, rainfall was able to capture the fact that there was not a single large guild involved in demonism.

"Where the summoning ceremony will take place."

Rain asked in a low voice.

Kim Jae-hyun slowly opened his mouth.

"Pohang."

"That's where the S-class gate is."

It was a possibility they had been thinking about since they first said they should be summoned.

If summoning literally meant bringing the presence of aliens to Earth, it could have called for a stronger presence at a higher rank gate.

Rain was able to ascertain that fact through Echidna's summoning.

"How did you...?"

Kim Jae-hyun looked at the rain with an incomprehensible look.

I said Pohang, but I didn't say Gate.

"You don't need to know. Playing, Mr. Burns. It moves right into the port."

"Right now?"

"Yes. They probably already know we've got a tail. We'll try to start the summoning plan right away, even with the crowd."

I didn't know whether or not another large guild was preparing all the offerings.

However, it was certain that Kim Jae-hyun could not break this statue like that.

"Wait a minute. If it's a Fort S gate, isn't that where the Wrestler 2 is stationed?"

"I'll check right away."

Dept. Yeon took out his smartphone and contacted somewhere.

Short calls followed.

The more currency followed, the harder the face of the department store hardened.

"A large party of about 20 people entered the S-level gate a few hours ago."

"... You moved right away."

Rain distorted the Devil's expression of quick coping.

The next player approached the department store and opened his mouth.

"What are the identities of the people who entered? Can't you see who's the Devil's Bridge when you examine the permits?"

"It won't mean much."

Rain shakes his head.

"... Why?"

"It's all a forged entry permit anyway."

Even if you were a smoker, it was enough to make it easy for rainwater that you still can't get a Class S gate pass.

It was unlikely that demons supported by more than one large guild could have been able to manipulate a single gate permit.

"Ugh."

The smoker also dipped with a stabbing expression.

In fact, obtaining a Class S gate permit was not that difficult.

It was because in the first place there were not many unqualified people trying to get into the gate.

If I try to force myself into it, it will become the prey for monsters. Who wants to walk into limbs anyway?

"I delivered the situation to Group 2. Even on the other side, I said I would go inside and investigate right away... But the Fort S Gate is so spacious and complex, I don't know if I can find it."

"We're moving right away."

"I'll contact the guild members as well."

The next player said that and turned his head towards the department store.

"Do you have a military helicopter that can be operated by the Wrestler Corps? Let's move on to that. It takes too long to get to the port by car."

"Got it. Contact headquarters right now..."

"There's a better way to do that."

Rain said, cutting off the words of the department store.

"A better way...?"

The gaze of the smoke and the department store turned towards the rain. The rain nodded.

"A dragon would be faster than a helicopter."

* * *

"Rain...!"

As the door opens, a girl with black hair reaches her waist and runs towards the rain.

The red-blooded eyes were showing her how she had been so far.

"Sorry."

Rain lightly strokes Echidna's head, holding her.

It was true that it was an unavoidable situation, but it was true that Echidna had not cared for anything in the past week.

For Echidna, who had just escaped the feeling of loneliness, rainfall could not be replaced by anything else.

It was not difficult to imagine the despair she had felt over the past week.

"... where were you?"

Echidna asks in a trembling voice, holding the rain.

"There was work to be done."

"... I didn't do anything wrong with the rain, did I? You're not leaving me, are you?"

Echidna looks up at him with anxious eyes.

'One day my father disappeared.'

Rain felt like I should have paid more attention to her.

"Yes, it will never happen, so rest assured."

"... Yes. I'll believe it."

Echidna nods with a faint smile.

"This child...."

"You saw it last time, right?"

The smoker and the department store nodded.

"But did a real dragon hit you?"

"Apparently, she only looks like a girl..."

The two looked at Echidna with suspicious eyes.

Echidna grabs the edge of the rain and opens her mouth.

"I'm the dragon."

Echidna said that and made small wings behind her back.

The two wings that stood on the girl's body proved that she was not human.

"A girl with dragon wings..." "

"It's a combination that feels very dangerous."

The department store and the smoker swallowed up a gulp in her face that was so cute that she was suffocating.

Even though I wasn't very close, I wanted to rush in and hug him right away.

"Echidna, I need a favor."

"Yes. I'll do whatever I can."

At the end of the rains, Echidna nods without hesitation.

There was deep trust in her gaze at the rain.

"... Is that how you trust your master when it comes to summoning?"

I asked as if I was curious about the next player.

Rain shakes his head with a bitter smile.

"No, Echidna's case is a bit special."

In fact, it wasn't that long after the rains and Echidna met.

No matter how much she called it a summoning, it was for a different reason that she sent so much trust.

'You don't want to go back to your lonely life.'

The rains lightly stroked Echidna's head and turned around.

"There's a place I need to go right now. Go back to your body and take me there."

"Got it."

Echidna nods with glittering eyes.

"I'll transform right now."

"Relax. When you get back from here, the house falls apart. Let's get out of here first."

Rain brought Echidna out.

The next player asked in a worrying voice.

"But if the dragon suddenly shows up, won't there be a big fuss?"

"There's a way to think about it."

Rain replied without hesitation.

The next player looked at Echidna with a curious expression.

Echidna asks Rain if she cares about herself or not.

"Rain, can we transform now?"

"Yes."

As the rain nodded, Echidna's body began to glow blue.

The blue light gradually swells and turns into a giant dragon within 20 meters.

"Huh...."

"I can't believe it..."

The two women look up at Echidna, who turns into a black dragon, as if untrustworthy.

There was no player who could handle monsters as summoners, but none of them could handle dragons.

[Rain, where do we go?]

"Hmm. So... over there."

Rain rose to Echidna's back, giving an approximate direction.

Following him, the next generation of musicians and department stores climbed on Echidna's back.

[... I don't want to burn anyone else but the rain.]

Echidna said with a voice full of dissatisfaction that the fact that no one but rainbows on his back was offensive.

Rain lightly stroked her throat with a feeding smile.

"It's urgent, so this time, Echidna needs to be patient."

[... If you do well, will you give me a prize?]

"What award do you want?"

On the question of rainfall, Echidna emits a nosebleed of excitement.

A black flame emanating from her nostrils set fire to the flowerpot of the apartment.

She spoke with a slight trembling voice.

[I want to go somewhere with the rain.]

"Hmm...."

It was too small a request to speak in a splendid voice.

The rain nodded.

"All right, let's go hang out after this."

[Is it real?]

"Yes."

[Hmph!]

Bloop!

Echidna once again snorts like she can't hide her heart.

I felt the hot heat from the fire emanating from my nose.

[I'll do my best!]

Huuuuuuu!

Two huge wings began to budge and Echidna flew into the air.

Rain used the power of projection to cover her body.

Her body turned translucent and began to melt into the surrounding background.

If I didn't concentrate and look at it, I couldn't see it correctly.

"Wow. Did you have this ability?"

It turned translucent, and so did the next player on it.

She looks down at her body, which becomes translucent as if she were a ghost.

"How can you be so capable?"

The next player looked at the rain with an incomprehensible look.

Even if you look at it with a simple force, it's enormous, and you have this technology after memory manipulation.

There seemed to be dozens of attributes that could be obtained one per 10 levels.

"Because I'm competent."

"... a rascal."

The next player looked at the rain lightly.

I didn't like the fact that I couldn't deny that audacity.

[Well, I'm leaving.]

Huuuuuuu!

Echidna's wings fluttered loudly with a well-motivated voice.

A translucent dragon crosses the air at a terrifying speed.

There was an intense gust of wind on the back of the car, toward the department store and the rain.

"Wha...? Huh?!"

"Khh."

The two of them grabbed the scales that had protruded beyond their ability to withstand the storm.

It wasn't just the two of them.

'It's too soon.'

Rain also hugged Echidna's neck as she immersed herself in the enormous air resistance.

It was too fast.

I felt like I would fall if I didn't use even the power of a thousand.

The problem is that both the power of power and the power of projection are quite difficult powers.

In order to use both powers simultaneously, a certain degree of mental concentration was required.

In this situation, it is difficult to use two powers simultaneously, even if you release your hand for a short time and it seems to bounce right off.

"Echidna, slow down..."

[Hmph! Hmph!]

I felt like I could no longer hear him in Echidna's ear.

Rain added strength to Echidna's cuddled arms.

[……!]

Echidna's eyes sparkle, feeling the rain hugging her neck vigorously.

'Why are you speeding up?'

[Hmph! Hmph!]

'Stop it.'

[Rain, it's okay to hold on tighter.]

'I'm already doing my best.'

[Are you ashamed?]

The rain that clings to the neck of the previous Giant Ogre has much more power than this.

At that time, Echidna, who did not know that the rain was using the power of power, decided that he could not hang on any longer because he was ashamed.

[Don't be shy, it's okay, it's raining.]

'Save me.'

[If it rains, I want to stick closer.]

'I don't want to die.'

[I want to feel the warmth of the rain... with my body.]

'Fall.'

Aaaaaaaaaah.
