Draco had two scrolls left in his hand.
But his mana was exhausted, and he could only wait five hours before continuing the summoning.
After waiting in the Sakura Sanctuary for three hours, Draco's MP had recovered to 60%, which was enough for what he needed to summon.
He wanted to see what kind of characters he could summon next.
Arriving at the wilderness, the light of a magic circle shone.
The figure of an unfamiliar young girl appeared.
The girl had short hair, wore a fox mask on her face, and was dressed in a white shrine maiden outfit.
Draco was certain he didn't know her.
At that moment, Orel suddenly approached.
"My Lord, it is Ukanomitama, my subordinate."
Draco then realized that the next ones to be summoned were the subordinates of the Guardians.
After signing the contract, the girl with the fox mask gave a respectful bow.
Summoning again.
This time, a young boy wearing a sun-themed mask appeared; by setting, he seemed to be Ukanomitama's older brother.
Both were Level 85, making them high-level NPCs.
After handing the two over to Orel, Draco left the Eighth Floor... On the other side.
Brumute Kingdom, Freedom Association branch.
In Branch Leader Fiz's office, Shizue and Eren's trio were reporting the information they had gathered.
To be honest, if Shizue hadn't been there, Fiz wouldn't have believed at all that a city could appear out of thin air in the Jura Great Forest.
Even after many days, Kabaru still couldn't stop thinking about the delicacies Shuna had prepared.
"Speaking of which, the food there is truly delicious."
"Once we've completed the mission the Old Master gave us, let's go there again."
"Young Lady, a round trip will take over a month."
The three of them chattered incessantly.
More than half a month ago, after staying in the Duchy of Nazarick for a while, they set off and left.
At the same time, they carried the mission Draco had given them.
That was to promote the city in the human world and lead some merchants there for trade.
Merchants themselves usually took a route through the Dwarf Kingdom to reach the Eastern Empire.
It would also pass through the plains of the Jura Forest.
The Duchy of Nazarick was located not far from the trade route, making it a perfect place for them to stop.
After hearing the report, Fiz's brow furrowed.
"So, the culprit behind this incident is the master who built the town, the Otherworldly Summoner Draco?"
"Yes, the Old Master said he would settle this matter and that we needn't worry."
After getting confirmation from Shizue, Fiz believed the trio's information.
After a long sigh,
"Although it's unbelievable, that's just how it is."
"Congratulations, you have successfully completed the mission."
Since it was a B-rank adventurer quest, Eren's trio was lucky enough to be promoted to B-rank adventurers.
And they received the quest rewards.
Afterward, Shizue continued her journey to find a way to save her students, while Eren's trio began adventuring among the Western Nations, promoting the existence of the Duchy of Nazarick along the way.
As time passed, the number of merchants and adventurers in the city gradually increased... Early one morning, half a month later.
Draco left the room, clutching his waist.
Do you understand the pain involved?
For some reason, Shalltear and Albedo had been getting along well lately.
Except for the fact that the two of them would compete over certain things at night.
Arriving at the dining hall, Draco ate a piece of lamb kidney to nourish his body.
At this moment, he suddenly felt an urge to flee from Nazarick.
As if the heavens had heard his heart's desire, Draco received a message from Benimaru.
(Lord Draco, the location of the Sanctuary has been found.)
(Where is it! I'm coming right now!!)
Draco asked urgently.
(Distance...)
The maid responsible for following the supreme being today was Narberal.
After learning the address, Draco said to Narberal,
"I have business and need to leave Nazarick. Inform Albedo that Nazarick is in her hands for the time being."
Before Narberal could say anything, Draco vanished directly.
She had no choice but to report the matter truthfully... After leaving Nazarick, Draco leisurely headed toward the coordinates Benimaru had mentioned.
Since it was a rare outing, he treated it as a sightseeing trip.
Along the way, Draco enjoyed the scenery, taking a week to reach his destination.
This was only because the Sanctuary was relatively close; otherwise, it might have taken ten or even dozens of days to travel elsewhere.
During this period, Draco encountered many powerful monsters, and the experience points he gained allowed his level to rise to Lv70.
Furthermore, he chose Magister and Star Sorcerer as his classes.
The Magister class enhanced Draco's magic effects, and even support effects were no exception.
Star Sorcerer was the class chosen at Lv70, which significantly increased Draco's cooldown reduction and Mana capacity.
The original fifteen-day cooldown for 'Designated Summoning' was reduced to ten days, and his million-point Mana pool was increased to 1.5 million.
These were all secondary concerns.
The reason he chose this class evolution path was to meet the prerequisites for special classes at Lv85 and Lv100.
He had his eye on a very good magic class.
However, the rate of experience gain after Lv70 began to slow down, so it would still take some time to reach the level cap of 100.
Moreover, Draco's primary profession was a Summoner; the powerful summons were responsible for fighting, while he just needed to coast along... The Sanctuary, the place where the managers of the Jura Great Forest resided.
It was a vast forest with a dozen green treehouses at its center.
This forest was the territory of the Treant Race.
The Treant Race had a long history, and deep within the Sanctuary lived a group of highly intelligent Treants.
They were both the Guardians of the Treant Race and the managers of the forest.
The Treants were a high-ranking race in the forest and rarely appeared before people unless the forest faced a major crisis.
Normally, they were polite and gentle, but once provoked, they could cause the weather to spiral dangerously out of control.
Draco arrived directly at the center of the forest, where Benimaru and the others had already been waiting for a week.
Treyni was a beautiful young girl with long green hair, dressed in a white gown and surrounded by branches.
Because she was an energy-based lifeform, her body was slightly translucent.
Treyni came forward to greet Draco; she was the highest manager here.
She possessed A+ rank strength, which was roughly equivalent to Lv80.
For various reasons, Treyni had separated from the Elf Queen Ramiris and brought her kin to live in the Jura Great Forest.
Being a long-lived species, she was already several thousand years old.
If Milim were present, she would certainly recognize her, as she had basically watched her grow up.
"Lord Lionel, we have been waiting for you for many days."
"Sorry, the road was a bit congested, so I arrived late."
I love it, I love it!
