Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Nathan and Selena ended up going down to check the situation even further.

Considering the situation, it would be good to return and let the teachers handle it. But they didn't know about the condition of this person.

If they left, and this person died, it would be hard to figure out the situation.

That was why Nathan decided to go down.

They carefully traversed down, wondering if there were any traps in this place.

Of course, Nathan didn't forget to give an order to Nidhogg. "Go and search the area. Make sure there's no one in this place."

"Yin Zhen." Selena also sent forth Yin Zhen.

Both of them immediately moved away while Fenrir led them to that person.

The person Fenrir believed was still alive was actually a man in their thirties. Whether it was because of the harsh conditions in this place, the man's hair had turned white. His face looked like he had aged decades in a short period.

His eyes were empty, as if his soul had left his body. He had lost a lot of blood, especially from both his hands that were impaled to the wall.

As Fenrir said, this guy was still alive. Although his breath was weak, he was a survivor.

"Anubis!"

"I'm working on it." Anubis channeled his power to the maximum, trying to save this guy. "The wound is too terrible."

"Can you save him?"

"I will try." Anubis turned solemn.

The guy let out a small groan, as if the burden on his body had been lifted a bit.

"Hey. Are you alright?" Nathan kneeled beside him and checked his condition. "Can you hear me?"

The guy coughed a few times, but it seemed he was too weak to even move his finger.

"He needs water. Selena!"

"I know." Selena immediately recalled Yin Zhen as Risa and Sasha accompanied her back to their cave.

Meanwhile, Nathan asked, "Fenrir. Check the other bodies as well and see whether they are still breathing or not. Since one survives, there's a chance there are more people."

Fenrir nodded.

When all of them left, Anubis couldn't help but say, "This doesn't look good. His vitality is decreasing much faster than I can replenish it."

"You can't save him?"

"No. But you probably can." Anubis turned to Nathan.

It was obvious what Anubis wanted. "Upgrading your Ankh again?"

"There are two methods. The first one will be my Ankh, which will allow him to recover. However, the damage that has been done to him is too much, so even if he survives, he will have a life filled with problems. First of all, his limbs are unrecoverable. Several of his organs are also damaged. Without my full power, it's impossible to help him.

"However, he will recover enough to tell us something."

Nathan fell silent. "What about the second method?"

"The second method is to forcefully unlock my scale. He won't survive, but I can direct his soul to the cycle of reincarnation along with all the souls buried in this place. And by using the scale, we'll be able to get some information from each soul. However, this method will be much more costly."

Nathan knew if this was more pricey, he might end up wasting several hundred, if not thousands, of Ena. And it could only be used for an hour or two.

This looked foolish. He was not a hero in the first place, so there was no need for him to help them.

However, Nathan could also see the bigger picture.

If he could gain information from those lingering souls, he could probably figure out what happened here and report it to the teacher. He could probably ask them to compensate or reward him with more cores.

More importantly, catching this guy would definitely bring a lot of merit. Even if he didn't win the competition, he would be able to get other benefits.

Besides, he still had several thousand cores in his cave. He could just replenish his Ena right after.

"Can your scale be used offensively?"

"I don't know what you're planning to do, but I can crush someone with it."

"Is the lowest grade enough?"

"Yes."

With Anubis' confirmation, Nathan raised his hand and formed a soul contract. Fortunately, this place was sealed, so both his teacher and the principal wouldn't be able to see the contract. Even Selena had been sent back to the cave.

'In exchange for 100 Ena, which will be paid by Nathan Reckmoon, the Scale of Justice will be unlocked for 30 minutes.'

The contract turned red, which meant the Ena wasn't enough for the contract.

He changed it to 200 Ena, but it still failed. He continued to increase it from 300 to 500, but it was still not enough.

He managed to upgrade the Ankh of Immortality for 100 Ena, but to think that 500 Ena was still not enough to unlock the Scale of Justice, it was simply too expensive.

The contract could only be established once he reached 800 Ena.

"8 times…" Nathan frowned. "And it's only 30 minutes."

Nathan clicked his tongue. "Whatever. Just use it."

Nathan gave the contract to Anubis, which he immediately signed.

All that Ena flowed into Anubis.

"…" Anubis took a deep breath as if he were feeling his power returning to him. The moment he opened his eyes, his eyes were releasing a golden light.

A golden scale appeared on top of his head as it gradually expanded until it was twice as big as Nidhogg.

"!!!" Both Nidhogg and Fenrir were startled that Anubis was releasing this level of power.

The scale was releasing golden light, illuminating the whole room. No, the light was so bright that it was actually blinding Nathan and the other two familiars.

When the light subsided, Nathan gasped as he realized he had been transported to a different place.

The square room was divided into five parts, which seemed to reflect a courtroom.

In the front, Anubis, who seemed to have changed his shape to half-human, half-jackal, sat on a golden throne, looking down at a translucent person standing on top of a platform.

Just like Nathan, he was clueless where he currently was.

Nathan was sitting on the stand on the opposite side of Anubis as if he were the witness of this trial.

The left and right were filled with several golden armors holding an axe.

"I am Anubis, I shall preside over this trial."
