Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

"Congratulations. You have won the black pearl. You are officially first rank in this event." Sera smiled.

"Thank you." Nathan nodded with a smile, obviously ignoring the cold gaze from the side. Nathan then looked around as if he wanted to find someone.

"No need to look for them. Both of them have left." Jason came to him. "With me and other teachers as the witnesses, we have concluded that you are the champion, and no one can say otherwise."

"Oh." Nathan acknowledged the victory.

"You have performed brilliantly. As the winner of the black pearl, you and your partner, Selena Ashton, will be rewarded with an A-grade room, 1,000 proto-class cores, and 1 epic item."

"Thank you." Nathan and Selena nodded.

"This is the form for the room change." Jason took out two papers for each of them. "Just sign it and you should be able to move in tomorrow. As for the epic item, it'll take a bit longer. I don't think I need to explain it to you guys."

"Yes. We'll take care of it." Nathan grabbed the paper. The room was a luxury, but the epic item would allow him to summon his next familiar. He currently had six thousand cores for the compensation and reward from the last incident.

Considering the increase in his quality, he could probably get a total of ten thousand Ena by the time he finished absorbing them. Still, ten thousand cores would take quite a while to absorb.

At the same time, he was thinking about raising all his familiars to at least 5,000 Ena before attempting to summon his next familiar. In addition, he wanted to have 10,000, if not 15,000, Ena before the summoning ritual.

Selena looked at the form and fell silent for a moment, as if there was something she wanted with this form.

"For now, you can take these and get some rest. Submit it before the end of the day and everything will be good."

"Alright. Thank you very much, Teacher." Now that he had gotten what he wanted, everything would be perfect.

"By the way, your teacher is waiting in her office. She seems to have something to say."

"Got it." Nathan then took his leave with Selena. Obviously, Sera was planning to tag along.

Nathan thought it would just infuriate Selena, but all of a sudden, Selena opened her mouth. "Nathan. You can go ahead first. There is something I'd like to do."

"Are you sure?" Nathan tilted his head. Whenever she got angry, it would be reflected on her face, so he was confused when she didn't show any expression.

"Yes." She nodded.

"Alright then." Nathan and Sera ended up visiting Vivian's office. Of course, Sera couldn't join, and she was forced to leave because it would take a while.

On the other hand, Selena was visiting a person. It wasn't her brother who was trying to harm Nathan. It also wasn't the principal who was her teacher.

Instead, the person she visited right after the match was Rudeus.

"Hmm? Why are you here? Are you going to mock me? Don't be excessive, Selena Ashton. If you are going to humiliate me, I have a lot of ways to make your life miserable." Rudeus was furious.

However, Selena simply took out the room change form. "This is the room change. I believe you need it."

"Huh?" Rudeus clenched his fists, thinking this was an insult.

"The most noticeable reward this event has is the room. You can use your influence to get an epic item or cores.

"That's why if you get the room, you can claim a lot of things for your family. Even if they have a lot of eyes, they will believe you more if you just say this is for the sake of the royal family or that you have taken an interest in him. That's why you offer peace or some sort of agreement, trying to pull him into the Liaystian Kingdom.

"All kinds of lies are more believable than the report from those who are monitoring you. After all, you can simply ask, 'Why would you get the room if you lost?'

"This way, you won't lose your position or support even after this defeat. I'm sure you can deal with the rest by yourself, right?"

Rudeus frowned. This was indeed a convenient tool for him to forge a lie. He could claim he wanted Nathan to become stronger and feel he owed him for giving him that first place.

Even if that was a lie, no one could prove it.

Rudeus asked, "I don't think you are going to give this for free. What do you want?"

"I want you to take no action against Nathan and me. As long as you do that, I will keep my mouth shut as well. Besides, with this comfortable room, you should have an easier time in the academy, right?"

"That's not a hard thing to do. To think that you would cover up for him after all this… I don't know what to say." Rudeus sighed.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you fulfill your side of the agreement, I will do the same."

"Alright. I'll accept this room. In exchange, I won't try to harm him. No. I promise I won't do any sort of manipulation against him anymore. Satisfied?"

"Yes." Selena nodded.

If Nathan were here, he would definitely ask why Selena would do such a thing.

However, the answer was actually much simpler than he originally thought.

…

One hour later.

Nathan came out of Vivian's office, finding Selena waiting in the corridor.

"Selena? Have you finished your business? How long have you been waiting here?"

"I've just arrived."

"Is that so?"

"By the way, you are too excessive. Rudeus will be coming at you because of that fight."

"I know. That's why—" Selena abruptly stopped him and finished his words. "That's why I offer my room to Rudeus. This way, he won't do anything to you."

"What?" Nathan wanted to say that he had a plan, but Selena simply said, "My solution is easier. Besides, I don't have an accommodation right now. You are not heartless enough to let me go back to my small room, right?"

Nathan coughed a few times, wondering if he heard it wrong. That was her true intention. She had realized a bigger threat than Rudeus. It was Sera.

By sacrificing her room, she not only could keep Rudeus in check but also maintain her superiority against Serafina.

And Nathan could never say no to such a request.

In the end, the student name in the form had increased, with a heart mark at the end.
