Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

"Did he…" Flora narrowed her eyes.

"He merged his bullets," confirmed Noelle.

Alavenya actually chose to confront him head-on. She shattered the rock with her fist and closed the distance between them in a single leap.

Before Nathan could send his bullets, Alavenya kicked his head.

Nathan, of course, raised his left arm and used the right arm to support it. He even used Fortify and utilized the uniform to lessen the impact.

However, the kick still launched him away.

'That's not enough,' Alavenya thought, with her eyes following Nathan.

Nathan waved down his hand midair, sending forth the bullets.

Since the previous attack was effective, Alavenya punched the ground again. She wanted to destroy all those bullets and catch up to him.

To her surprise, there was not a single explosion.

"!!!" Alavenya instantly realized, "He didn't send the explosive bullets. No, it doesn't matter. I just need to push through as long as I know the explosive bullets are still—!"

Before she could finish her thought, eight bullets pierced through the dust cloud.

"Huh?" Alavenya widened her eyes in shock. Her instinct kicked in, activating the Iron Body.

Nathan shocked her one more time. The moment the bullets hit her body, they didn't disappear immediately. Instead, they were packing much more punch compared to those bullets.

The bullets broke her Iron Body, albeit using most of their Ena.

'What?' Alavenya gritted her teeth while looking at her wounds. While the bullets only managed to pierce through her skin, they still dealt some damage.

As a result, Alavenya couldn't move until the dust settled.

The people were stunned after seeing Alavenya's state.

"W-What is this?!" Filia gasped. "There was no explosion, and all of a sudden, Alavenya is injured?!"

"Did you see it?" A teacher asked the old man next to her. "Teacher Donovan. You are the one teaching in the Magic Department for the first-year students."

"Yes. He combined those bullets so that it would give more power. I assume it's around three times its original power. He is combining Concentration and Concentration."

"Did you teach him? Although Fortify is already shocking, it's the basics, so it's not surprising if he can do it. But this…"

"No." Donovan shook his head. "He has found his own style from the very beginning. Even in class, he just focuses on improving his own fighting style. I have never taken a part in its creation."

"Did Vivian teach him? But this style… It is more similar to the former principal…"

They couldn't help but think about it. What if the Sage taught Nathan?

Alavenya didn't know anything. All she knew was that Nathan was an annoying opponent.

If this continued, she would be taken out before she could do anything. However, there was one thing for sure.

Nathan's unique style was good, but the moment she got used to it, he would have lost his advantages.

Nathan knew this very well and taunted her again. "What's wrong? I'm here. Didn't you say you want to beat me up so badly that my parents couldn't recognize me anymore? This is troublesome. What if the Dragon King bullied me after I bullied his daughter?

"If only you had taken his advice and enrolled in this school from the very beginning, you would have been stronger than this. I sympathize with your father for having such an arrogant daughter, who thinks she has the power to crush anyone."

"You bastard!" Alavenya shouted in anger and dashed forth.

Nathan had once said that she should solve her anger issue because it would be the cause of her downfall. And this was what he meant.

Nathan formed his bullets and merged them in front of her so that she could see the tricks.

As such, she registered all those bullets in her mind.

Unfortunately for her, Nathan sent forth the bullets, but this time, all eight groups of bullets flew in a circle, spinning like crazy so that she didn't know which ones were the powerful bullets.

And he even went one step further by shooting all those bullets in all directions and forming new groups as if he was shuffling cards.

"!!!" Alavenya lost track of them as the bullets once again hit her.

She protected her vitals and activated her Iron Body. Sadly, it wasn't enough. The ten bullets hit her and pierced through the Iron Body.

"Kh!" Alavenya bit her lips as she endured the pain.

"You bastard. Fight fairly!" Alavenya rushed again.

"I'm merely using my ability to the fullest." Nathan shook his head helplessly. He summoned the bullets and fired them again.

Alavenya was so frustrated that her eyes turned bloodshot. Her stable Ena forming the Iron Body turned into a raging form.

The bullets hit her again, but this time, Alavenya didn't care about her defense anymore.

"!!!" Nathan looked surprised. As one would say, they shouldn't push their enemies to the corner. Even a deer would fight back without thinking about anything else when they were cornered.

This reckless action finally allowed Alavenya to break past Nathan's attack range.

The Ena erupted in her fist as a dragon roar echoed before it was even unleashed.

"Oh, this… might be bad." Nathan took it with his left arm while using his other arm to support it. He infused as much Ena as possible in that arm.

Dragon Fist.

Alavenya punched Nathan with all her strength.

"Kh." Nathan's eyebrows twitched. When the dragon let out the second roar, the Ena finally burst, giving an additional power to that punch.

And finally, Nathan felt his bone snap from all that force as Alavenya blew him to the corner of the arena.

Alavenya panted a few times, glaring at Nathan.

The latter managed to emerge from the wall with his left arm broken. There was a visible inflammation on his left arm, showing that he wouldn't be able to use this arm for the duration of the fight.

Alavenya felt like the frustration had disappeared for a moment. Even if it meant mutual destruction, she really wanted to beat Nathan up.

"Good punch. Alas, you should have knocked me out in a single punch if you want to beat me." Nathan smirked before shouting, "Anubis."

An ankh appeared on Nathan's left arm. The inflammation disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, which stunned everyone in the arena, including Alavenya.

Nathan waved his left arm as if showing her it had been fixed. "Well, what did you do earlier again?"
