The Extra System: Summoner of Shadows
"Teacher, why does the Church call summoners evil?" The priest’s voice was grim. "Because they defy the gods. They summon horrors that devour worlds. It is not just power—it is corruption given form." A student hesitated. "But could one not use that power for—" “Silence!” The priest’s eyes burned with fervor. “There is no redemption for a summoner. And now, they speak of the worst of them all—a Summoner of Shadows. A heretic who will plunge the world into eternal darkness. He is the epitome of evil, and when he rises, he will destroy us all.” ————————————————- [New Extra Character Registered… Cedric Everhart.] [The Extra System has initiated.] Awakening as Cedric Everhart, ninth prince and prisoner, he carries a curse: the most reviled class in existence—[Summoner of Shadows].

A Craved Realm
Cedric was confused by his double vision. He saw the knight slash toward him, and another knight following right after. Cedric dodged the first strike with confusion, only to realize that the first image disappeared.
The knight came and slashed, missing Cedric for the first time. The millisecond difference between the two images allowed Cedric to dodge ahead of time. As he stared at the knight turning into two again, Cedric understood what he was seeing.
His mind had grown so used to the knight's movement that it became capable of deducing its attacks based on its movements. It was not real foresight, but something akin to battle instinct.
Cedric became capable of dodging the knight's attacks. Of course, there were still instances where Cedric dodged too early and the knight reacted to his intent. There was still a long way to go before he could defeat the knight.
