“Kuooo!”
A Land Worm erupted through the mountain range, rearing up to display its immense size.
Observing it from a distance, Ian frowned.
“Where do creatures that big even come from?” he muttered.
Judging by its size alone, the beast dwarfed even the Colossus, Noah’s summon. In fact, it surpassed any train he’d ever seen!.
The Land Worm rose higher, opened its gaping maw, and unleashed a deafening roar, saliva dripping from its jaws.
“—Kuoo!!”
The ultra-high frequencies unique to subterranean creatures sent tremors through the earth.
Covering his ears against the piercing noise, Ian issued a command to his summons.
“It’s just one, after all. Go and take it down.”
“Hahaha, Master!” Theresia laughed. “You mean to fight a monster that size? Right now?”
“Yes.”
“It’s my master, but really you’re…”
“Hmm?”
“Really awesome.”
Ian had felled countless large demons and monsters before, but this was the first time he’d encountered one of such staggering proportions.
Theresia tilted her head, then charged toward the Land Worm.
Compared to its massive bulk, her sword was little more than a toothpick.
Could she really stab something with a toothpick and bring it down? Ian wondered.
“Ha! If the master’s bold, the summon must be too!” Theresia shouted.
Whoosh!
In an instant, she launched herself off the ground and scaled the Land Worm’s body. Once atop it, she plunged her sword into its flesh and sprinted along its length, fierce and unrelenting. Bl0od began to drip along the path she carved.
“—Kuaah!”
The Land Worm shrieked at the sharp sting of its skin being sliced, thrashing violently and rolling across the ground.
With that single motion, Theresia was flung into the air.
Mid-flight, she caught herself on a tree and yelled down at Ian, who stood below with a dumbfounded expression.
“Whoa—Master! I can’t handle this alone!”
A monster of this magnitude was a job for a wizard, not a swordsman like her. As their wizard was off searching for something, Theresia’s gaze shifted skyward, where she spotted Empress weaving a spell.
A chill ran through her.
“…Is it just me, or does that feel bigger than expected?” Theresia murmured.
“It’s fine,” Empress called out. “Even if you die, the summoner will bring you back. Here—take this, Meteor!”
With those words, Empress conjured a colossal meteorite in the sky.
As the unavoidable mass hurtled downward, threatening to crush even her, Theresia muttered under her breath.
“Hahaha, you insane lunatic.”
The next moment, the meteorite struck.
***
The impact was cataclysmic, as if the earth itself had shattered.
“You madwoman!” Ian shouted.
For a fleeting second, the shockwave felt world-ending. Trees were uprooted, the ground heaved, and a landslide triggered by the meteorite’s force obliterated the village below.
“The villagers…!” Ian gasped.
“It’s fine!” Empress replied. “I saw them evacuate earlier!”
“That’s a relief.”
Still, the thought of compensating so many displaced disaster victims already made Ian’s head spin. His gaze turned to the culprit behind this chaos.
“Empress!”
“Um, Summoner,” she said, unfazed. “I know you want to yell, but take this first.”
“…What is it?”
“The Essence of Theresia.”
“What? You psychotic bi—”
Shocked that his comrade had been swept up and killed in the blast, Ian grabbed the essence and pressed it to Theresia’s pattern, reviving her.
Reborn, Theresia grinned brightly, then seized Empress by the neck.
“Ha! Sure, it’s fine to die since you’ll resurrect me, right? Then you die too.”
“Killing me now would be tricky,” Empress replied coolly.
She pointed to the Land Worm, still wriggling despite the meteorite’s impact. Rated a high-class monster for its sheer size and strength, it had endured the strike unscathed.
“What is this?” Ian wondered aloud. “Is reality blending with game logic?”
In the game, a 4-star summon couldn’t one-shot a high-level monster unless it was maxed out—and Empress wasn’t. The Land Worm’s survival made sense only through that lens. Otherwise, how could it withstand a meteorite capable of leveling mountains?
As the creature writhed, struggling to rise, Theresia released Empress’s neck with a sigh.
“Hurry up.”
“Yes.”
Freed, Empress fired a beam of light at the Land Worm’s head. It screeched as its flesh began to melt, thrashing wildly to evade the attack.
Despite their relentless assault, the beast crouched and dodged, leaving Empress scratching her cheek in frustration.
“I’ve used up all my mana.”
“What!?” Ian exclaimed.
“But really, how many ultimates have I already cast today?”
Ian fell silent, unable to argue. She’d shattered mountains and summoned meteorites—having any magic left would’ve been the real surprise.
Finally, he turned to Noah. Sensing his gaze, she tilted her head curiously.
Ian gave her a resigned smile.
“Noah.”
“Yes!” she chirped.
“Crush it with your Colossus.”
“Got it!”
Big threats called for wizards—or equally massive counters. Before the meteorite hit, her 3-star Colossus wouldn’t have stood a chance against the higher-tier Land Worm.
But now, with the beast’s stamina depleted, even a 3-star summon could finish it.
“Colossus!” Noah commanded.
At her order, the Colossus seized the Land Worm’s head and tail, spinning it like a top. As its body twisted, the creature wailed, its guts contorting in agony.
A high-frequency scream vibrated the air tens of thousands of times per second. The Colossus hoisted the Land Worm overhead, flexing its mighty arms before tearing it apart.
Shrrk—Fwoosh!
Bl0od and entrails rained down like a fountain.
Ian glanced at Noah, who scratched her cheek awkwardly as her summon scattered the monster’s remains.
“Uh… I might’ve gotten a little carried away,” she admitted.
“A little?” Ian replied, dodging a falling chunk of intestine.
“Is that what you call a little?”
“Hrm, I just got a bit excited…”
“I’m not really complaining…”
The blood and guts soon seeped into the soil, staining it black and releasing toxic fumes. Demons, born to slaughter humans, spread death even in defeat.
“How do we handle this?” Ian asked.
***
Fortunately, the contamination from the Land Worm’s corpse didn’t spiral into a crisis.
“Oh, thank goodness,” Anna sighed.
With a prayer to the divine, Anna activated the Origin Art woven into her ceremonial dress. The pollution vanished like water evaporating, leaving the soil purer than before.
Ian touched the cleansed earth and gave a wry smile.
“It almost feels like human effort is nothing,” he mused.
A single summon could outdo the labor of a hundred men. Yet summons had greater purposes than mere toil—they couldn’t be wasted on such tasks.
Each time a summon’s power enriched humanity, the efforts of powerless individuals seemed trivial by comparison. It was a stark contrast to earth, where countless ordinary people united to build nations and reach the moon.
“Master?” Anna’s voice broke his reverie.
“Ah, yes. What is it?”
“The purification is complete. There’s no danger now.”
“Got it.”
Ian relayed the news to Noah. She’d been anxious that her summon’s actions might’ve cursed the land, but hearing Anna’s words, she exhaled in relief.
“Whew… I really thought we’d caused a disaster.”
“It was a disaster,” Ian said dryly.
Without Anna, this region would’ve been rendered uninhabitable for a generation. For humanity, confined to such limited territory, losing even one area was a devastating blow.
“Still, good work,” he added.
“…You just said it was a disaster,” Noah pointed out.
“That’s separate. It doesn’t diminish what you did.”
There’s a principle akin to the Good Samaritan law—mistakes made in the act of saving others aren’t punished. Noah had slain the Land Worm to protect people, unaware its corpse would taint the earth. Her intent wasn’t malicious.
It was akin to accidental harm with no lasting victims—technically, no fault at all.
“But…” Noah hesitated. “Does that mean I owe you?”
“Owe me?” Ian echoed. “Well, don’t you?”
“…If I do, what’s the price?” Her eyes curved like crescent moons.
Ian smiled faintly, saying nothing.
The weight of that silent grin made Noah shiver as she looked up at him, “Isn’t that a bit harsh?”
It was the kind of look that carried implications for all ages—or none at all.
Of course, Ian had something far worse in mind.
