Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 67 Unexpected Reward

Selena, August, and Rudeus were sitting inside the hut, picking their own items to exchange.

Selena was waiting for Nathan, wondering when he would come.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

August and Rudeus were wary of each other. At the same time, they also wondered where Nathan was. Nathan should be quite strong if he was able to get to the top three on the previous trip, so it would be weird if he wasn't here.

However, the result was clear the moment they heard an announcement coming from the sky.

"The battle royale has ended. 13 people have passed the battle royale and reached the hut. You are given thirty minutes to choose what to exchange before getting teleported back to the hall."

"!!!" All of them widened their eyes in shock. Nathan actually failed? While it was true that even among the top ten, only half of them reached the hut, they didn't expect Nathan to fail.

Selena was shaken by that news. In her head, she was the reason for Nathan to fail. If she were there to help him, the situation would have been much different.

Yet not only did she receive the help from the Dullahan, but Nathan wasn't here.

'A rather weird reaction from Selena, thought. Rudeus as he observed everyone in the room. It seemed Selena had met Nathan in the competition.

August didn't think much about it because he had gotten a worse rank than he originally intended.

All of them were choosing the items they thought were most appropriate for their growth. Meanwhile, only Selena couldn't decide what she wanted.

On the one hand, there was an item that could help her. On the other hand, she had to apologize to Nathan.

That was why Selena actually chose to spend all her points to get as many proto-class cores as possible so that she could share it with Nathan. This was the only thing she

could do to apologize.

After receiving their respective reward, they were sent back to the hall, of course, their original position. In other words, Selena immediately met Nathan.

"I..." Selena grabbed Nathan's hand in panic, trying to explain it to him.

However, Nathan put his finger in front of his lips as if implying to remain quiet. He then pointed to the stage as Vivian, Jason, and the student council lined up.

"You've worked hard, students. I hope that you are satisfied with the reward you receive this time.

"This is the result of your effort, strategy, strength, and luck. Realize what you are lacking and make an improvement in that area if you want to get stronger. Take one step at a time because that's how to get stronger.

"From now on, the curriculum for the first year will change. You are now allowed to leave the academy. Just like this battle royale, you will find not only aliens but humans in your path, and they might not necessarily be your allies. If you die this time, no one will help you.

"That's why I hope you can take this result into your heart and continue to grow.

"All the classes are now open to you. You are able to train in all four departments, theory classes, or solo training. Adjust your schedule to yourself.

"If you wish to take on a mission to get resources, you are to visit the Public Hall. People all over the world have requested our help because we are the Frexia Academy. After picking your mission, go to Jason to receive his permission.

"That is all. I hope that all of you are able to advance to the second year!" Vivian snapped her finger. A giant rectangular mirror appeared in front of them, showing the result of this battle royale.

The people were quite shocked because some people who were at the bottom managed to reach the goal.

The one who took the first place was none other than Prince Rudeus. Surprisingly, Selena got second place this time.

The Dullahan killed everyone in her path, allowing her to grab their headbands. She thought she would share the loot with Nathan later, but it turned out Nathan failed to reach the goal.

In addition, several names appeared on top of August who only ranked 6th. If not for the betrayal, he would have gotten a higher rank, but this was what could happen in the real world, as Vivian said.

Nathan raised his eyebrows when he noticed Raivan's name among the top ten. Then again, he wasn't worried that much since the dryad was keeping an eye on him. Nevertheless, the reaction from other students was wild, especially when they saw Nathan was not among the people that reached the hut.

"Did he die?"

"I guess he was just lucky last time."

"Indeed. He might receive Selena's help in the Tevlan Forest."

"He is nothing compared to those top students."

"Hahaha. He is running out of luck."

Nathan had expected this, so his expression remained calm. Even though these people managed to reach the end, even with the additional points for reaching the hut, none of

them actually got higher than 300 points. In other words, if Nathan had just reached the hut, he would have been number one.

August squinted his eyes, thinking, 'Should I recruit him to my faction? We both are strong, and with the same goal, I don't have to worry about him betraying me!

A similar thought appeared in Rudeus' mind. "This is the perfect time to recruit him. He

is currently at rock bottom, so if I stop these people from badmouthing him, he will be grateful to me.'

Selena clenched her hands into fists. She never thought she would be this annoyed when people badmouthed him. The only one who knew what Nathan was capable of was

her.

When Selena was about to rise from her seat to explain, Flora reached their seat without anyone realizing it.

She made a sly grin while asking, "Student Nathan, I'm impressed by your battle, so as the student council president, I'd like to invite you to become a part of our student

council."

"!!!"
