The Fiction Summoner: Chapter 15

Alex went to his wooden stick, which was stuck inside a tree, and pulled it out with an indifferent expression.

He was extremely annoyed that he had almost killed himself while he was testing his Nen ability.

That happened only because he got too excited and didn't think about what might can happen.

Alex looked at the other two toads and began venting his anger on them. although He kill those two toads with two stabs his mood didn't improve.

[Large Acid Toad was killed. The User has gained 20 experiences and 2 Gold.]

[Large Acid Toad was killed. The User has gained 14 experiences and 3 Gold.]

'Never again... I'll never do anything so thoughtless again.'

After that, Alex didn't go deeper into the forest and stayed in this area to kill all the Toads he could find here. (Put simply: the distance to its territory stays about the same and He mostly goes horizontally.)

All the time Alex also got messages, that his other units were killing creatures. Although it seems that they haven't found a new creature yet.

about 12 hours later.

Alex was still in this forest killing creatures. He wasn't even exhausted or starved after fighting for so long.

The only difference is that Alex noticed that his body was starting to weaken a bit in those 11 hours. But even with that, Alex could probably easily fight for 2 or 3 days here in this forest.

Alex's body was now so strong that he could fight for a long time without much problem.

[Physical: D+]

Alex could now stay awake for more days if he wanted but that would make his body weaker and weaker.

Sleep was the best option for getting his body back in top condition.

Apart from the fact that it got dark and that in the dark other creatures appeared in this forest.

He read many times in the [Regional Chat] how many participants tried to make their summons fight in the night only to lose these summons.

Although some extraordinarily strong participants have not lost their summons, the night is still extremely dangerous.

Scyther (2) and maybe even Scyther (leader) could die in the night if Alex lets them keep fighting. Apart from that his summons also gets weaker if they fight for a long time and don't sleep or eat enough.

In these 12 hours, something else happened that Alex hadn't expected.

Once he reached level 20 new info appeared in his head. he could get now one new skill. However, this skill is not "randomly" distributed like the start skill and depends on the object you use to awaken your skill with.

Different objects awaken different skills, but as a general rule, the better the item's rating is, the better will be the awaken skill.

Alex showed a satisfied expression when he noticed this.

Although he can only awaken one skill, it's not unlikely that he'll get another chance to awaken a skill when he reaches level 30 or level 40.

But even if Alex has more chances later, it's extremely important that Alex finds a very good object and doesn't waste that potential of the awakened skill by using a bad item.

Alex wanted to wait and see what the other participants would do once they reached level 20. (until at least 5 or 10% reach level 20.)

He was already in a good situation anyway and now he doesn't need a mediocre skill to survive.

Alex went back to his territory and already saw his three units waiting for him.

He immediately checked the status of his summons. (show only what had changed.)

Alex smiled and greeted his summons as they looked at him. After that, Alex and his units started talking about how it went today.

Gandalf said in a relaxed tone, "It seems nobody had a problem going a bit further from the Territory."

Alex said with a serious expression, "I'm not so sure. Although no one is hurt, Scyther should have encountered a relatively strong creature. If I remember correctly, the name is [Green Mouth Mushroom]."

Scyther (leader), "These creatures aren't very strong. I shouldn't have a problem defeating a small group of these. Even more so if I can take minor injuries."

Scyther(2) agrees, "Yes. I'm already a little bit stronger than one of these creatures alone."

Alex felt that now these two Scyther(s) were a fair bit smarter than a newly summoned Scyther and could even build complicated sentences. Although that's more the case with the Scyther (leader).

"That's good then. We can try to go a little deeper tomorrow."

Gandalf agreed with Alex's plan, "This is a wise move. While it's dangerous to do so, the benefits are worth it. Mainly because I also think it's unlikely that we'll encounter that much stronger creatures. Although I suggest that we move as a team deeper into the forest."

Alex, who wanted to suggest that anyway, immediately agreed.

The group meeting lasted for a few more minutes before everyone went back to their "homes".

Alex opened up his [Fiction Discount Shop] and looked at the summon he couldn't afford.

[B Rating Hero: Boa Hancock]

[Shop price: 1,300,000 gold]

[Price: 13,000 gold]

He was a bit sad that he couldn't buy such a powerful hero, but at the same time, he was a bit relieved that he didn't have to worry about keeping this "hero" under control.

Even if he had enough money now, he wouldn't buy this summon immediately and think long and hard about how high the risk is.

Alex stopped thinking about it and started to get on his bed.

...

Alex woke up and realized it was still dark outside so he stayed in his house.

With his improved body he now only needs to sleep 5-6 hours to be in the best condition again. he would probably need to sleep even less if he didn't have to fight all day yesterday.

Alex immediately opened his [Fiction Discount Shop].

He wanted to see if he had better luck today and can find more useful items or summons here.

Alex looked at the first item with a speechless expression.

Alex only thought one thing at that moment, "F*ck"

***

For many who haven't read my first story, it might be a little strange that the Mc doesn't get everything here for free. I like writing realistic stories in unreal worlds and I personally hate plot armor.

It's hard to explain exactly what I'm trying to say, so I hope you understood at least a little bit what I'm trying to say.
