Almighty Summoner System

Chapter 33 - Barrier Turtle!



Swoosh!

A tiny ant figure pounced at the little girl at extreme speed.

The girl felt a chill, and before she knew it, the ant was already near her face.

Boom!

An explosion occurred but it was not due to the ant hitting the girl's face. Instead, it was due to the ant hitting a huge shield or glass barrier that appeared right in front of the girl's face.

Ban was taken aback by the incident and when he realized who it was that attacked the girl, he could not help but break into a cold sweat.

"Eva, what are you doing?" He hurriedly picked up little Eva in the ground who was already preparing for another attack.

Eva struggled for a moment but also calmed down the next second when she realized who it was that held her.

However, her eyes were still staring at the girl ferociously, as if warning the girl that if she attacked Ban again, she would surely put her in her place.

Krrr! Krrr! Krrr!

She released a hissed-like sound as a warning to the girl.

"What a fierce monster!"

Someone suddenly commented from amongst the crowd of Adventurers around them.

The girl was still rooted in place and large sweats could be seen rolling on her cheeks.

It was her first time feeling such danger and if it was not for the barrier that got erected at the right moment, she knew that her face would be deformed if not squashed from that attack.

After recovering a little courage, she finally looked around and noticed the person who erected the barrier in time.

It was Delo, her personal bodyguard that her dad hired for her.

'Fortunately, Delo acted in time!'

The man named Delo nodded before slowly walking towards her.

He then stood right behind the girl before eyeing the nervous Ban and the fierce little Eva on his hand.

"I saw what happened! Your Monster suddenly attacked her without warning!" He stated in a voice full of authority.

The crowd gasped in shock after seeing Delo's interference. After all, Delo was already a Silver Rank Adventurer and it was a known fact that he always stayed silent.

"I heard that the Guard Commander issued a B Grade Quest the other day and Delo accepted it. It must be related to that."

"I heard the B Grade Quest involves being a bodyguard to someone. Do you really think Delo would accept a Quest like that?"

"What do you know? I also heard from a reliable source that before Delo even accepted the Quest, he was already hired by the Guard Commander for the same reason."

"Ehh? Now that you speak of it, I also heard something like that."

"Does that mean that little girl is the one he was tasked to guard?"

The crowd's gossip echoed everywhere and Delo's brows started to crunch in annoyance.

The crowd noticed the threatening vibes that Delo was oozing off so they hurriedly shut their mouth, afraid that Delo might shut their mouth for them.

However, they somehow felt pity for the new kid that had offended Delo.

After all, his Barrier Turtle had already used its signature move, Barrier, and it was said that Delo would not use that move if he wasn't sure that blood would be shed.

It was just rumors but the Adventurers around still believe it wholeheartedly.

Ban gulped a mouthful of saliva as he did not know what to do. The pace the things were occurring was so fast that he was at loss.

He was still in shock as to why little Eva suddenly attacked the girl, and then another guy suddenly appeared out of nowhere to butt in.

"Explain what happened here or else I will throw you out of this building this instance!"

Delo stated in a commanding voice as a Turtle suddenly crawled towards him. It was the turtle that erected the Barrier earlier, namely, Delo's E-Elite Rank Barrier Turtle.

However, before Ban could answer, the girl who was the root of this fuss suddenly interrupted him.

"Wait, Delo this is a misunderstanding!" She said in a hurried tone. She then explained what happened earlier, including her slapping Ban's hips for not noticing her earlier.

"Maybe his Summon just acted in defense because I 'accidentally' slapped his hips!"

She knew that even if Ban was deliberately doing it, she still shouldn't have hit him.

"I-I'm sorry! I did not notice you earlier! It was not in my intention to belittle you or your height!" Ban hurriedly said.

He also felt bad that he scolded Eva even though she was just trying to protect or avenge him.

"Still, using your Summon to attack someone-"

"Delo, that's enough! I already promised my Dad that I won't create trouble here. There's no one that was hurt anyway, you did your job right!" The girl frowned after realizing that Delo was deliberately trying to create trouble.

If it was any other time, she would definitely not mind him. However, today was different, she just turned 16 and she's going to have her awakening ceremony.

She promised to her father that she won't create trouble in the Adventurers Guild and awaken peacefully.

Seeing her displeasure, Delo finally conceded as he picked up his Barrier Turtle and carried it on his back. However, he still eyed Ban as if saying that it was not over yet.

"I'm sorry for slapping you earlier. I really didn't mean it and it was something like a reflex for me because I am always bullied by my siblings due to my height." The girl said as she stared at Ban with her hands rested on her hips.

Ban nodded his head in understanding. The slap did not also hurt him that much and it all started when little Eva attacked her as a way to protect or avenge Ban.

Ban knew that he was also at fault. "I'm sorry too! I just got awakened yesterday and I still could not properly control my Monster yet."

Upon mentioning that he just got awakened, the crowd finally nodded their head as it was really plausible that he was not in full control of his monster yet.

"Dang, so it was not intentional! Come on let's accept this Quest now and go to Kuys Bar later, I heard that Emilia will perform a song tonight. Damn, I can't wait to hear her heavenly voice. Emilia baby, wait for me, all my gold coins will be yours tonight!"

"What really? Then I must hurry and also complete my quest. A good beer should be my company while I listen to Emilia's heavenly voice!"

The crowd finally dispersed after seeing that it was all an accident and unintentional. They are waiting for 'drama' but it seems that it won't happen for now.

However, someone was also not feeling right when Ban mentioned that he just got awakened yesterday.

Delo and his Barrier Turtle stared against each other in a confused manner.

The Fuck! He only awakened yesterday?

Then why did Tori's Glass Barrier Cracked from his Monster's attack?
