...
Su Xiao had just returned to Reincarnation Paradise. Before he could check his obtained rewards, that feeling of calling grew stronger. Or rather, it was a feeling of summoning, somewhat similar to summoning Servants in the Holy Grail World, but without the binding of a summoning contract.
Su Xiao could choose to accept this summoning, or he could sever those invisible chains. Having just been teleported back by Reincarnation Paradise, the back of his head inevitably ached faintly.
This summoning sensation came from Mawen Hua'erzi. Su Xiao simply acquiesced to this summoning.
...
In a certain low-martial derivative world, inside the bedroom of a luxurious mansion, several girls with different colored hair were fiddling with something on the floor.
"Bound Earth Spirit, is this enough?"
A girl with blonde hair and blue eyes patted the black dust off her dress, glancing sideways at a blue phantom in the room.
"Of course, with your magical aptitude, you can definitely summon a seven-star or higher Apostle."
The blue phantom smiled. Being mistaken by these girls for an ancient Bound Earth Spirit was quite amusing.
"Obviously."
The blonde girl lifted her chin, clearly showing a young lady's tsundere attitude.
"Kelsey, is this really okay? Setting up a summoning array privately is a bit..."
A timid girl wearing bottle-bottom thick glasses spoke, her clear eyes filled with some worry.
"It's fine. Even if I summon a seven-star Apostle, they'll willingly become my attendant."
The blonde girl put her hands on her hips, looking tsundere.
"Simple-minded."
A black-stockinged senior student in a school uniform spoke. Hearing this, the blonde girl Kelsey glared at her.
"It's starting. I hope there won't be any mistakes. Father God bless us."
The green-haired girl with glasses beside her clasped her hands together, silently praying.
Woo~
The summoning array on the floor blazed with golden light, and a holy aura emanated from within.
"It's a holy attribute. I really am a genius!"
The blonde girl Kelsey clenched her fair fists, her sky-blue eyes filled with excitement.
"Congratulations."
Although the senior student had a personality clash with Kelsey, she sincerely congratulated her. This was the proper character of a reserve "Dimension Guardian."
"Oww..."
Just as the girls were staring at the summoning array with anticipation, a desperate wail came from within.
Bang!
Ripples of spatial distortion spread, and a bloodied figure flew out from the summoning array. It was a bird-man with wings on its back, but one of its wings had been severed, and several slash marks crossed its torso.
The bloodied bird-man rolled to the feet of the girl Kelsey, twitched a few times, and died.
The girl hadn't summoned a seven-star Apostle. She had summoned a nine-star "Holy Angel," but it was dead...
Kelsey lifted her foot, using her toes to nudge the bird-man in front of her. Her brain was somewhat short-circuited, unable to understand why the attendant she summoned was dead. Could it be an undead-type Holy Angel? The attributes seemed contradictory...
"There's something else."
Hearing the senior student's shout, Kelsey looked back at the summoning array.
The golden light within the array grew fainter. Soon, a large surge of blood energy spread out from the array. The girls' long hair flew wildly, and the holy aura in the room instantly dissipated.
Crack, crack...
The glass cups on the table and the windowpanes shattered, and blood energy filled the bedroom.
With a thud, a physically weaker girl fainted. After a moment, only Kelsey, the glasses girl, and the senior student remained conscious in the room.
"We have to destroy it."
The senior student struggled to step towards the summoning array. The closer she got, the more violently her body trembled. It was an instinctive shudder.
Just as the senior student approached the summoning array, a hand wrapped in a metal armguard reached out from the blood energy.
Crack, crack...
The space around the summoning array split open.
"Such a fragile world."
A man's voice came from within the summoning array. The array, unable to bear the strain, finally shattered.
The blood energy dissipated, revealing the bedroom now covered in cracks. Su Xiao's gaze swept around. The summoning from Mawen Hua'erzi was full of "surprises." Shortly after he responded to the summoning, the summoning sensation appeared, and he was dragged into an alternate space.
The bizarre part was that there was a bird-man in the alternate space. As soon as they met, the bird-man tried to judge Su Xiao with the noble status of a "Holy Angel." Su Xiao casually killed it with a few blade auras. Very weak.
"Is this... a derivative world?"
Su Xiao looked at the transparent chains on his arms. Because he had True Attributes and couldn't be weakened, Reincarnation Paradise used physical means to restrain him.
"Of course it's a derivative world. There are some things I need to give you."
The blue phantom in the bedroom spoke. It was Mawen Hua'erzi.
"Bound... Earth Spirit? Are you betraying me? I have a contract, you know."
A voice pretending to be tough came. Su Xiao turned his head. Their eyes met. Kelsey's body hair stood on end. The feeling of looking into Su Xiao's eyes was like being stripped naked and thrown into a frozen wasteland.
"Don't kill her. This little girl is quite interesting."
Mawen Hua'erzi spoke with a hint of amusement. He didn't care about being mistaken for a Bound Earth Spirit by Kelsey.
"Little girl, this is the attendant I summoned for you. Probably... over four hundred stars?"
"Huh?"
Kelsey was a bit dumbfounded. In her world, the strongest Apostle was ten stars. She had never heard of over four hundred stars, or rather, there was no such concept.
"Also, your contract power... needs serious study."
As soon as Mawen Hua'erzi finished speaking, the contract power on him disappeared. Just that simple.
The world Su Xiao was in was a light-magic derivative world, probably an expansion based on some derivative world prototype. Judging from the stability of this derivative world, the original protagonist might have already died of old age. This kind of world was generally used for first-rank contractors' trials.
Or rather, this was the first world a new contractor would experience: safe, stable, with a limited power system. Unlike Su Xiao, who was thrown into a world like One Piece, where the strong were as common as dogs, right after entering Reincarnation Paradise.
With a snap, Mawen Hua'erzi clicked his fingers, and the three girls in the room fell unconscious.
"Minor trouble solved. You don't have much time to stay here, so let's get straight to the point."
Mawen Hua'erzi's tone became serious.
"You've reached the Blade Awakening stage. This is the most important transformation for a bonded weapon. Or rather, it has some abilities to impart to you, and you can also choose to bestow something upon it..."
Mawen Hua'erzi began explaining matters related to Blade Awakening.
"Of course, what I just said is about conventional Blade Awakening. Considering that your Devouring Core has already broken its limits and is complete, I have another suggestion. This is also the main reason I called you here."
As he spoke, Mawen Hua'erzi took out a ring.
"This is the Heart Ring, invented by some witches. Over there..."
Mawen Hua'erzi's voice grew lower. Hearing the end, Su Xiao's eyes seemed to gleam.
"This... is it really feasible?"
"Of course, I guarantee it with my character."
"..."
If Mawen Hua'erzi hadn't said that sentence, Su Xiao would have felt this matter was somewhat reliable.
