Awakening to a Special-Grade Explorer

Book 4: Chapter 117: Summoning Acceleration

Chapter 117 - 'Summoning Acceleration'

The swing at the end of the garden is a DIY playground equipment that Tenji made for Chigo.

He wasn't particularly skilled at DIY, but when he first arrived in Mallorca, he enthusiastically researched and created this cherished piece of play equipment, knowing it would be used in the future.

Tenji rolled up the 'Book of Enma', he couldn't help but feel a deep sadness upon hearing a creaking sound coming from the swing, which should never make such noises.

The pages of the Hell Realm have changed in this way.

---------------------------

[Hell Realm].

Red Demon Species: 195/195

Blue Demon Species: 194/195

--------------------------

[Well, I got a little too excited about this place and did a full summon in the middle of the night yesterday. But still... it's an amazing number when you think about it again.]

Tenji was so thrilled to have formed contracts with new hell beasts that he couldn't contain his excitement. He summoned as many hell beasts as he could in his room in the middle of the night, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

Afterward, he was so exhausted that he fell asleep with the 'Book of Enma' on his hands.

[As expected, this place has changed just as I previously speculated.]

As previously speculated, the denominator of the hell realm is increasing by '2.5 times, rounded down to the nearest whole number' for each increase of one level. Therefore, it has changed from '78' to '195'.

All it took to summon a Goblin was five points and a single slot in the hell realm, but this was also different for the Flame and Snow demons.

In the case of the Flame and Snow demons, it was found that each one consumes 10 points and consumes two slots. In other words, each summoning of a single demon would fill "2" numerators.

So Tenji made the following adjustments and re-summoned the Goblins, Flame demons, and Snow demons again:

Goblins: 41

Flame demons: 77

Snow demons: 97

As for the Goblins, only the first and second Goblin squads, which are led by Goblin-kun and Goblin-chan individuals, were left intact, while the other Goblins were erased from the 'Book of Enma'.

And they added the new Flame demon and Snow demon to the list of the Book of Enma.

[But... the consumption of points has increased significantly all at once, hasn't it? It's a good thing I've been saving them without using them. How many times... have I thought about buying Demon Lantern at the Hell Granny's shop? I'll have to be more cautious about using them from now on. Yes, yesterday alone we summoned a total of 174 hell beasts, including Flame demons and Snow demons.]

As a result, 1,740 points were lost in just one day. A simple calculation shows that he lost points for nearly 200 fourth-grade monsters. Although he still had some points saved, it was a painful expense considering the future spectacle.

"But still... Yeah, it's weird. I knew it, but... maybe I didn't want to know it."

Tenji couldn't help but feel a sense of fear towards his future self.

Even though Tenji's level was only 5 out of 100, the number of Hell Beasts he was already commanding had swelled to a total of 215. Moreover, these weren't just ordinary 215 creatures; they were Hell Beasts whose strength stood out even when compared to typical explorers and such. Anyone who didn't feel fear at this fact might be considered somewhat unusual.

What would happen to me when I reach level 100?

Would I be able to remain a normal human being?

Will my sister continue to treat me as her brother just like before?

Will everyone... continue to interact with me as they always have?

In a world where organizations that don't treat explorers as humans and discrimination is rampant, what kind of treatment will Tenji receive?

These negative questions had been plaguing Tenji's mind in recent times.

Tenji, who was beginning to truly understand the word "dreadful," had a lot on his plate.

(Well... let's not dwell on it too deeply for now. From the next level up, my stat increase might suddenly become 1 or something like that. Yeah, that's right, I should forget about it for now.)

Tenji slapped his own cheek as if to shake off his thoughts and redirected his gaze back to the 'Book Of Enma'.

The next thing he checked was the explanation section of the skills written on the earlier pages of the 'Book Of Enma'.

------------------

[Book Of Enma]

This is a skill that summons the book of the ten kings who rule over Hell, the 'Book Of Enma'. It serves as a medium for commanding Hell Beasts and harnessing their power. Once summoned, it will not disappear until the user dies.

[Hell beast Summoning]

A skill that only those with the King Factor of Hell can use. It allows the summoner to call forth Hell Beasts without the need for any medium, following the command of the king. It also enables faster summoning.

---------------------

The second skill, "Hell's Life Summoning," finally manifested.

In a word, its effect can be summed up as "summoning acceleration."

[Yesterday, when I was adjusting the number of Hell Beasts, I felt it firsthand... summoning acceleration, huh? It's true that the steps are now fewer than before.]

Previously, Tenji had to either mentally or verbally express his intention to summon, and the 'Book Of Enma' book would respond, automatically flipping its pages. The "Summonable Hell Beasts" page would then shine silver, and there was a complex process involved in touching the words to finally initiate the summon.

This wasted step has now been eliminated thanks to the effects of this second skill.

You don't have to utter another word to activate this second skill.

All one has to do is be aware of the "summoning," and the gates of hell will open immediately.

That's all it takes.

Thus Tenji was able to speed up the summoning process.

However ---

Tenji was more focused on a particular term that had caught his eye.

--- Hell King Factor."
