Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts - Chapter 693

Chapter 693: Entrance
The soldiers were gulping down, not knowing where the enemies would come from.

“Sir. There is nothing in front of us yet.” One soldier reported.

“This is a bit too dark for us, isn’t it?”

“We have spotted a lot of moving lights in the slum. They’re moving fast, so they might be coming here. They are going in three different directions… No, wait. The other two directions are actually moving toward here?” A soldier reported while standing on top of the roof.

“What? They’re really coming?”

“How many are they?”

The other soldiers panicked.

The problem in fighting during the night was that they couldn’t see anything.

During the day, due to the ash cloud, the sunlight couldn’t reach the surface, which made the world dark.

Even then, they still could see quite far ahead. In fact, they weren’t that unfamiliar with such darkness. It was as if they were in the middle of a dark, rainy day where not a single bit of sunlight reached the earth. Of course, it was probably the darkest rainy day they ever had, but it didn’t change the fact everything was still visible.

However, the night was different. The moonlight wasn’t as powerful as the sunlight.

As a result, it was a complete darkness. It was as if they were inside a closed room with no window or light source. They couldn’t even see the hand in front of them and had to use their hands to sense everything around them.

The only way for them to see was using the torches, albeit such materials were limited.

Except for a few light sources around the town, it was completely dark outside. That was why most people had gone back to their house before it was completely dark, or else they might not be able to return at all.

For the soldiers, fighting in this darkness was completely a new territory for them. They had tried to light up the surrounding area as much as possible, but with how the thugs fought, they would still have a hard time. They could simply emerge from the darkness that the light couldn’t reach before ambushing them.

That was why they were worried about fighting them. Even Nathan understood why the captain was annoyed.

If this was a head-on clash during the day, he would be able to lower the number of casualties, but this was simply too much.

The middle-aged captain gritted his teeth, knowing that they had no other choice. He commanded out loud, “Men. Get ready for the battle. We can’t allow those thugs to reach this place…”

All of a sudden, a huge light appeared in the sky, illuminating the entire town as if it was a day without the ash cloud.

“What is that?”

“Such a bright light…”

“The sun has descended?”

The soldiers had a hard time looking at the source of that light, but it felt like the ash cloud had been opened briefly, allowing them to see the sun with their own eyes.

For the people who had lived in the darkness for over a month, seeing such a phenomenon brought them to tears.

Once they lost the sun, they understood that they had taken advantage of the sun for granted. The sun was the source of life, whether it was food or even the livelihood inside the city.

“Morning?”

“Has the cloud gone?”

“Is this a dream?”

The soldiers were in utter shock. No matter which direction they looked, they would see the completely bright world as if the ash cloud had never existed before.

It was like hope appearing in the middle of despair.

“Ah…”

Some soldiers couldn’t help but fall to their knees, praying. “Praise the Lord.”

“Praise the sun.”

“Hooray!”

Only the captain, who was a grandmaster, could see everything perfectly. ‘That’s… a bird? This power… it’s like the sun. It illuminates the entire city… No. A domain? A domain that uses the power of the sun? So, this is his trump card… If we fight in this condition, we can lower the casualty. No. Even I will have an easier time against them.’

As for the people who were in the plaza, they simply shuddered in fear. What kind of monster had they provoked this time?

Even Alan was almost blinded by the light and covered his eyes.

“Not good!” Alan bit his lips.

Nathan took advantage of this sudden change of brightness to strike him in the stomach.

“Gah!” Alan spat a mouthful of blood before getting launched to the ground. “Kh. You bastard. I’m going to kill you!”

Alan summoned all five familiars.

“We have to attack him as well!” Other summoners and familiars readied their weapons. In the end, there were only two opponents. Since they didn’t have to deal with the darkness anymore, they should be able to defeat Nathan with their sheer number.

“Bam!”

Leon crashed into another building after getting shocked by the appearance of the sun.

“Kh.” Leon gritted his teeth as Flora pumped her fists. “You shouldn’t get distracted. If you want to defeat him, you have to step over my dead body.”

“And I will do just that.” Leon waved his blade, ordering his familiars to attack.

Nathan also summoned his familiars at the same time.

A huge wolf appeared on top of a roof, standing like an overseer. It proudly raised its head and let out a long and loud howl.

“Aoooo!”

A huge black dragon perched on top of a building and spread his massive wings, using his massive body to show his majestic figure and scare his opponents. The dragon opened his mouth, releasing a roar that shook the entire city.

*Roar!*

Not wanting to lose, the sun crown spread its golden wings as the one bringing life to this world. It spread its wings before letting out a high-pitched cry that echoed throughout the city for a few seconds.

*Cry!*

Even his opponents were in awe when they saw such majestic familiars.

Only Anubis remained small, looking at them with a wry smile. “Are they trying to look cool? Well, this is awkward. I can’t really make that type of sound…”
