I Became the Youngest Summoner in the Strongest Guild

48. Arcana Online

One of the places called the 7 Magic Realms.

Delegations from the Avalon Empire and Arcadia arrived at Eldorado, the City of Gold.

True to its nickname, the entire city was made of gold, rich in resources, and located between the Avalon Empire and Arcadia.

Because of this, neither side could touch it, like the commercial city of Thalassa, but due to an uninvited guest, it was now in danger of being taken away in an instant.

The master of numerous magical beasts and a being with power too great for an individual to possess.

The traveler, Yuna.

The delegations that arrived in Eldorado were guided by the Silver Fox Clan to the conference room.

The story of a single nine-tailed fox destroying a kingdom is very famous.

Dozens of such nine-tailed foxes were visible in all directions, and it felt like this wasn't even all of them.

With tense hearts, they entered the conference room to find the traveler Yuna sitting in a chair.

Numerous magical beasts were glaring at them from around, but with a raise of her hand, they all bowed their heads.

One by one, these magical beasts that could threaten humanity were so obedient.

Could she be a Demon King...?

"Welcome, delegates from the Avalon Empire and Arcadia."

She stood up, welcomed them with a bright smile, and for some reason, smiles appeared on their faces.

Was it just their imagination that they were reminded of their daughters waiting at home?

They sat down, managed their expressions, and proceeded with the negotiations.

The conditions proposed by the traveler Yuna:

Neither the Avalon Empire nor Arcadia would interfere in any way with the City of Gold, Eldorado.

Furthermore, she wanted an alliance.

Not only was she threatening them with magical beasts, but she also wanted an alliance.

She was trying to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Empire, which had ten master-level knights and formidable military power, and Arcadia, which had produced seven great mages and possessed three magic towers.

This was nonsense.

He slammed the table and stood up.

"Stop this nonsense! How dare a mere traveler to the military empire..."

The moment the snake on the traveler Yuna's shoulder raised its head and looked at him.

His legs gave out and he collapsed, with the aide beside him helping him up.

Cold sweat flowed and his hands and feet trembled, unable to do anything.

He had seen many magical beasts, including dragons, but this was on a different level.

Such a being couldn't be turned into an enemy.

"A-an alliance..."

"Ah, just a moment."

Not only did she interrupt his words by raising her hand, but she also took something out from her bosom.

A magic stone...?

As he watched her feed it to the snake, curiosity overwhelmed him.

"What is that?"

"It's a magic stone. I got it from the celestial realm, and it's more effective than top-grade magic stones."

What did she just say?

Celestial realm...?

"W-what did you just..."

"There wasn't anything like this in the demon realm, but the celestial realm was amazing!"

Now the demon realm came up too.

Her true intentions were revealed indirectly.

It was a threat saying that the celestial and demon realms were behind her, so they should make their decision wisely.

Come to think of it, during the investigation, there were reports of her being with angels or possessing items from demon clans.

As he was trying to use tactics to negotiate as advantageously as possible while sweating nervously, someone entered.

"Benefactor."

A nine-tailed fox approached the traveler Yuna and whispered in her ear.

Hearing those words, her expression hardened.

"According to information that just came in, it seems armies are approaching. What's going on?"

"Th-that can't be! P-please give us a moment!"

"It can't be from our side either!"

While the Avalon Empire and Arcadia delegations were insisting it wasn't them, people bearing the Avalon Empire's flag and wearing blue robes symbolizing Arcadia's magic tower were approaching.

Just as they were about to contact the upper echelons to find out what was going on, an urgent communication came through.

[Stall for time as much as possible.]

After checking the communication content, they could only despair.

They had moved the army while stalling for time through negotiations.

The traveler Yuna stood up.

"As expected, dialogue without power is useless. I hope next time we can resolve this peacefully."

With those words, blue particles shone from her body and she instantly moved through space.

She moved to where the army was marching, and knights who recognized them approached.

"Why are you here!? We clearly ordered you to stall for time!"

"Th-that's not the issue! Why are you trying to start a war!?"

"It's His Majesty the Emperor's will."

The frightened Emperor and Arcadia's upper echelons had launched a surprise attack taking advantage of the meeting.

Just as numerous troops were about to pour into the City of Gold, Eldorado, the atmosphere shook and an anomaly occurred.

Huge dark clouds covered the sky, and a being revealed itself from within.

A dragon so large that only part of its body was visible was looking down at them.

"Q-quickly activate the barrier magic!"

"W-what are you doing!?"

"Magic won't activate!"

A huge veil spread around them, and no one could move their magical power.

Blue light gathered in the mouth of the dragon looking down at them from the sky.

As they collapsed in despair, the dragon's breath didn't aim at them but struck the distant mountain known as the Mountain of Death, where no living beings existed, and a huge explosion was heard.

When they came to their senses and looked at the Mountain of Death, nothing remained.

[There will be only one warning.]

With those words, the dragon disappeared.

The traveler Yuna approached them along with numerous magical beasts.

"I tried to negotiate on equal terms earlier, but not anymore. What will you pay in exchange for your lives?"

Was it an illusion that a reaper holding a huge scythe appeared behind the traveler who spoke with a bright smile?

"Kyuuung!"

"Our Yong-yong is the best! I'll give you a bath in magic stones!"

"Kyuuuung!"

I received an enormous amount of gold from the upper echelons of the Avalon Empire and Arcadia under the name of reparations.

The amount was so substantial that I immediately contacted the celestial realm to purchase a large quantity of unique-grade magic stones. I filled a bathtub for our Yong-yong, and he's now diving in and enjoying his happiness. It's so cute.

And as I check the document containing the newly concluded treaty, a smile appears on my face.

[The 7 Magic Realms. The City of Gold, Eldorado, is designated as the personal area of the traveler Yuna, and no interference or invasion will be made.]

There were various other clauses written, but this is the most important content.

From now on, invading Eldorado is clearly illegal under international law.

I can't help the monsters that exist outside, but if they come into my arms, I'll protect them.

More importantly, should I start making calls now?

A new skill obtained after reaching level 100.

[You have acquired a job-specific skill for reaching level 100.]

You have acquired the Active Skill: Hello? It's me, your master.

«Hello? It's me, your master.»
When the skill is used, you can contact summons that are far away.

Mana used: 0
Cooldown: None.

When I used the skill, a phone appeared in my hand...?

When I pressed 1, the number 1 was displayed on the screen, and along with the call button, I heard Yong-yong's voice?

"Kyuung?"
[Kyuung?]

Does it connect to the summons I've obtained starting from number 1?

When I pressed 2, I heard the orc's voice.

[Young human. What's the matter?]

After I explained the situation, he readily accepted.

[If the young human wishes, that would be fine.]

And so, starting with the orc, I contacted numerous summons.

Most readily accepted, but there were some that didn't.

The monsters living in the Dungeon of Greed refused to relocate, saying they were satisfied with their home.

There were also summons, no, friends who refused for other reasons.

[I'm busy with business, man!]

[But... I want to spend time with my friend?]

[I-if you put it that way, I guess I have no choice. I'll drop by sometime when I have time.]

How naive.

After contacting everyone, I looked at the magical beasts organizing the city.

Many monsters will be moving to the city from now on.

They'll need various goods and tools for a comfortable life.

To do that, I first need to establish a merchant group to procure necessary supplies...

Wait a minute... merchant group...?

I hurriedly called Lala again.

[I said I'm busy, man!]

As she was about to hang up, I shouted urgently.

[Merchant group! It's about a merchant group!]

[Tell me more...]
