The Fiction Summoner: Chapter 9

[Mouth Mushroom was killed. The User has gained 5 experiences and 2 Gold.]

[Mouth Mushroom was killed. The User has gained 6 experiences and 3 Gold.]

' It seems Scyther has encountered other creatures, but... Wtf is a Mouth Mushroom?'

Alex pictured a mushroom with a mouth in his head when he heard that name.

he would really like to see what this creature looks like to find out how these names are decided.

although curious, Alex wasn't stupid enough to go into the woods alone.

Alex stopped thinking about these things and started looking for new information in the chat.

He found a few people who have already managed to lower their summon's loyalty to such an extent that they stop carrying out the orders.

Alex couldn't understand how these people managed it.

Only items or summons that are "human-friendly" are in the official shop. It should be hard to lower loyalty from these Summons.

At least compared to the Summons from [Fiction Discount Shop], which don't have this limitation.

Alex had the feeling that if he summoned Batman's Joker, for example, he would carry out his orders for a maximum of 1 day.

It's hard to be the perfect leader for such a crazy and smart person.

Alex wasn't arrogant enough to think he could do that.

This was also a downside to his skill, which he realized when he saw how quickly Scyther was losing loyalty.

Just because he instinctively showed fear, he lost a lot of respect in the eyes of Scyther. Though he doesn't think he would do any better now than in that situation.

Alex even thinks he was unexpectedly calm and didn't let his fear get the better of him.

Scyther looks more dangerous than a lion and was only a meter away from Alex.

Even if Alex knew his summon wouldn't attack him with his starting Loyalty, it's hard to control his instinctive fear.

'F*ck, couldn't it be a Pikachu or something? Although, I need to get my fear under control quickly or it will cause many problems in the future.'

when it got dark, Gandalf and Scyther came back. Alex immediately looked at the information from them.

Alex, who leveled up three more times, noticed that his body strengthening became more evident after each level. Now his body felt ridiculously strong.

Although he didn't feel like he had reached peak human strength, he was at least close to it.

It's difficult to say.

he would like to do a 100-meter sprint to be able to assess it better. but he has no clock or way to measure 100 meters.

Although his summons are higher level than him, Scyther and Gandalf's ratings were no different than on level 1.

Alex looked at Gandalf and said after the greeting, "Do you feel stronger now than when I first summoned you over here?"

Gandalf gave a slightly confused look but after a second he understood why Alex asked, "Oh you're asking that because my rating hadn't changed. Haha, Don't worry I got stronger it just wasn't enough to show it in my rating."

Alex nodded and said thoughtfully, "It seems that for all creatures every same level is the same increase. Although your starting attributes are so high that in the first few levels you can't improve your ratings.....wait."

He looked at Gandalf and said, "Don't you have a [E] rating in Agility? isn't 8 level ups enough to get a [E+] rating?

Gandalf shakes his head and he says with a smile, "You care more about the ratings than you should. A [E+] can be only 0.1% better than a [E] rating attribute. A [E+] rating doesn't make you stronger."

Alex thinks about Gandalf's words for a moment. After a moment he said, "I see. It's like all scores from 50 up to 99 get an [E] and all scores from 100 up to 200 get a [E+] rating. The difference between 99 and 100 is relatively trivial but can become harmful if you put too much value on this rating and therefore under or overestimate the strength of a creature. Although it is still useful for a rough estimate."

after a few seconds, Alex said with a playful smile, "But... Gandalf your agility still is worse than I thought. haha"

Gandalf also shows a smile as he said, "fool"

Alex stopped joking around with Gandalf and started looking at Scyther.

He said with a serious expression, "I wanted to apologize for how I greeted you last time."

Alex made no excuses and admitted he was genuinely afraid of Scyther. it was really hard to hide and not feel scared when he glance at Scyther.

Scyther looked at Alex and said, "You're still scared. Though less now."

Alex showed a hopeless expression, "Your appearance bore many resemblances to dangerous creatures in my world. My instinct reacts beyond my control."

Scyther wore a thoughtful expression. after a few seconds, he nodded to Alex's words without confirming or denying them.

Alex, Gandalf, and Scyther talked and ate for a bit before everyone went to sleep.

Alex bought suitable food and drink for himself, Gandalf, and Scyther in the [Shop]. He knew instinctively what kind of food and drink his summons could eat and like.

There were a lot of choices and Alex didn't buy the cheapest but also not the expensive food for himself and his summons. 20 gold was used for this.

after everyone ate, Gandalf went into a free house and Scyther jumped into the Pokemon Habitat Building to sleep.

Alex also felt tired after so much happened today. Although he was not physically tired, he was mentally exhausted.

he slowly started to fall asleep in the uncomfortable bed.

Gandalf and Scyther speak their own language and Alex could hear a real-time translation in his head at the same time. has something to do with the new language he knew and was given at the beginning of the game.

So, I will now start uploading chapters from this story on an irregular basis.

Although I can promise that at least 1 chapter will be uploaded per week and once a month for a week like now I will upload an extremely large number of chapters at once (5-7 chapters). maybe more if the story gets bigger and more people support me on patreon.

In any case. I love this story so people don't have to worry about me stopping uploading chapters here. Especially chapters 14 and 15 were such fun to write.
