The Summoned Monster That Is Summoning Another Monster

“It is surprising that you haven’t voiced any intention of retreating.”

Hearing this, little fatty was a bit surprised, he then thought of it and was shocked to realised that it was true but upon further thinking, he sighed inwardly.

Throughout his childhood, he was often bullied by people of the same line of work or noble children, he wasn’t strong, he isn’t that intelligent and he was fat.

He had always been ridiculed, Adam his best friend is the only person that accepted him, even though he would always be tyrannical, he hadn’t been that harsh to his friend.

After fighting monsters with Shadowslash, he felt his strength continue to increase, he relishes this sensation, also, he got more computable with using elemental energy.

He knows just how much this meant for his future, awakening an magic spirit would become easier and when ones truly get in touch with the nature of Mana, then it is certain that he would summon a magic spirit.

.....

Shadowslash would absorb the energy from the bodies of some of the monsters that he had killed using the Tree Swallowing Technique, he can’t access the true Heaven Swallowing Technique because this body would certainly burst into a bloody mess if he ever tried it.

Tree Swallowing Technique is already great, his body is now continuously changing together with the Tyrant God Body Tempering Art and Metal God Technique, his body is comparable to that of a newbie Silver Rank.

The one who truly obtains the greatest benefit was Wiggles, his pet slime, with his memory with the law of devouring, he had increased the potent of [Limitless Digestion].

Back to the present, the mercenaries throw something into the entrance of the cave and explosions could be heard, upon hearing this, Shadowslash instantly knew that the time of battle have begun.

After the rumbling noise, goblins started pouring out of the cave, their numbers are great, the mercenaries and knights pulls their bows and fires.

Arrows flew and instantly, the first batch of goblins dies, more came out, Shadowslash has his eyes close and tries to sense the surrounding with his limited sense.

The scene of deaths made the two children tremble but they quickly recovers their composure, after all, they have hunt for an entire day just yesterday, they have experienced the sensation of killing other living beings on their own hands.

Shadowslash opens eyes, the light on the eye socket of the mask shines brightly, he stood up and fires a fireball at a certain direction, with a wail, everyone who were near the area were startled.

They look at the direction of the fireball and a giant lizard the same size as a dog was seen, it looks like a chameleon, upon seeing it, the mercenaries started retreating instantly.

One of them shouted “It’s the Color Changing Paralytic Lizard, everyone stay away, it’s bite could paralyzed you.”

Shadowslash on the other hand wasn’t worried, the two elven sisters have always been focusing towards their group.

Even though they were participating in the fight against the goblin, they weren’t truly worried about their attacks as the goblins were too weak to be a threat to them.

The two of them quickly retreated and approaches Shadowslash and his group, they look at the surrounding and asks “Are there more coming.”

Shadowslash looks at different direction and said in a calm manner but his words made those that were close to pale “At least a thousand is approaching, I am only counting those that are close.”

Suddenly, he stood up and grabs the two children before jumping high, the two elven sisters were confused but they still follow his lead.

With a loud boom, the ground started shaking making everyone disoriented, the two elven sisters looks at each other and could see amazement on their eyes.

Shadowslash looks at the direction of the center of the forest “It seems that the city lord and the guild master have met an enemy.”

He was frowning behind the mask, such event shouldn’t happen before at least a hundred of goblins are killed.

His expression became serious as he looks at the direction of the city, he suddenly looks at the cave and he gathers a massive amount of light and transform it into holy element before firing it into the cave.

The sudden change of event stunned everyone, with a loud explosion, a howl of grief could be heard, Shadowslash instantly said “We’re returning home, we aren’t fighting monsters but demons.”

He grabs the two and made a run for it, when the two elven sisters heard what he had just said, their expression became pale, they focus at the cave’s entrance and felt their legs weakened.

Even though this world is mostly dominated by humans, there is a much powerful race present, dragons and elves are too reclusive, their strength might be great but their population is their downside.

Demons are exact opposite, they have the same speed or even greater reproduction rate as humans does but their intelligence aren’t that great, they compensate this with strength, that is why most humans are afraid of them.

If it weren’t for the church of the brilliant god which contains mages and paladins that has the natural element of light and holy that is the nemesis of dark and demon, humans would have been long beaten by the demon race.

Shadowslash who was running away frowns, he jumps to the side dodging a long tongue, he quickly returns to the group and said “It is too late, we are surrounded!”

The mercenaries were startled by his shout, they look at the surrounding and saw nothing, meanwhile, the two elven sisters instantly believes him.

They shot multiple arrows at their surrounding and some of them were thrown back by an invisible being, the expression of the mercenaries turned ashen.

Shadowslash looks at the direction of the city and said “We need to survive this battle, if we are annihilated, then the city wouldn’t last long.”

The knights and the mercenaries that have family members back on the city trembles slightly.

Shadowslash approaches the general and asks “General, is there anyone back in the city that is at least as strong as you.”

The general was startled but hearing his question, he nodded “There are hidden guardians of the city, they cannot be commanded but they would protect the city if there is any danger to it.”

Shadowslash nodded “I hadn’t expected that the demons would use the goblins as a disguise for their activities.”

The general was shocked “Demons?! Are you saying that we are currently fighting against a demon?!”

All of a sudden laughter could be heard, then a being standing three meters tall came out of the cave, he actually crawls out, he doesn’t care about the arrows shot at it.

He continues to laugh “We didn’t expect to be discovered so soon but oh well, at least we have the strength to destroy this weak human city after biding our time for a couple of years.”

A goblin which is the same height of a human and a bulky build appears, it was a goblin king, it couldn’t speak but it said something to the demon.

Shadowslash instantly knew that the two were working with each other, he now realised why the demons weren’t discovered, it’s because they aren’t controlling the goblins.

He was a bit surprised, after all, goblins are weak creatures and demons would disdain working as equals with such race but the current situation doesn’t states so.

The demons looks at the humans and jeered “What, do you want me to dig out your eyes, this person in front of me is a renowned guest of our race, with his existence, we now have the chance to destroy this kingdom.”

Shadowslash quickly understood the situation, he started laughing and inwardly felt that the demon is too stupid for saying such stupid thing.

The goblin king felt proud, it calls for it’s subordinates and two ogres appears, they are shorter than the demon but their build is still considered intimidating.

It then summoned an ugly looking thing, it was pulsating and radiates red energy that affected everything on it’s surrounding, Shadowslash became curious, this is the first time he had seen a magic spirit.

‘What the hell is this thing, it and the goblin king is connected, they share the same lifeforce.’ The magic spirit seems to be a Nascent Soul but at the same time not.

It’s very existence made Shadowslash curious but he quickly snaps out of his deep thought, the mercenaries and knights started fidgeting as if they are in the verge of going crazy.

The demon started laughing once again “Hahaha, you weak and pitiful humans, tremble upon the skill [Insanity], unless you have someone that has such strong killing intent to offset the effect, you are helpless!”

‘Are demons truly this stupid?’ This type of thought flashes on Shadowslash’s mind.
