Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Even You Chu himself was a little shocked by the gorgeous lights.

You Chu felt that his thoughts, which had been fuzzy for a long time, seemed to have suddenly cleared up. The knowledge he had learned from books so far seemed to have been enlightened in an instant.

You Chu’s thoughts had never been so clear before. He could feel the flow of elements in the cool airflow on his skin. He even felt the entire world observed in his eyes become clearer.

The golden light shone on the desolate and dark land like the light of the righteous path. The complicated patterns of the array spun along the ground like streams of light. A figure stood in the middle of the array, her petite body blocking You Chu.

A young girl.

Her straight golden hair was shiny and flawless. Her fair and beautiful face was expressionless like ice. Her thin lips and eyes were as calm as still water.

That petite body, however, was covered in a knight-like white armor, making her look valiant. She held a cold sword in her hand, its blade carved with complicated golden patterns.

When he saw the swordswoman turn around and look at him with her beautiful, gem-like eyes, You Chu could not help but think—

—Are you my master?

Well, it couldn’t be helped. Her gorgeous appearance, awe-inspiring aura, and her body under the armor were really too eye-catching…

Only then did You Chu notice that a card emitting a faint golden glow had also appeared in front of him.

[Light Swordsman—Moonlight].

It looked like that was her name… or at least a title.

Well, let’s not talk about anything else. At the very least, this character drawing was stunning enough. It was probably very to the taste of some gentlemen. No wonder this game was so popular…

… Of course, that was not the point now.

But in any case, You Chu’s single draw should be considered a win. He had successfully drawn the card he wanted and officially advanced to a Summoner at this critical moment.

Before the hostages in the cages could regain their senses, the black-robed thugs had already reacted.

“Fire!” someone shouted, taking the lead.

The thugs reached under their voluminous robes and pulled out their guns, firing indiscriminately. Crossfire from both sides and locking in on the direction of You Chu and the swordsman he had just summoned.

The female swordsman stood calmly, her beautiful eyelashes motionless.

The bullets that filled the sky did not hit their targets successfully.

Bright Swordsman Moonlight stood calmly in place, her petite body protecting You Chu like a shield. Without a bullet hitting, they could not even fly smoothly.

All of the bullets were obliterated a meter away from her, as if they’d been melted by super high temperatures. It was as if some invisible barrier had opened up around her. The bullets were melted into molten alloy that flowed along the invisible barrier.

More bullets slammed into the molten iris like moths to a flame, sending ripples across the surface of the lake like dense rain.

Light Swordsman – Moonlight calmly raised her sword and waved it.

It was a simple and boring strike that did not even seem to use much strength. However, this strike seemed to be an irresistible order from the queen who was looking down from above. The molten iron that was blocking her side was her army.

The metal iris moved, erupting like a tsunami. The mob’s torrent of gun fire turned back into a tide of steel, driven outward by the force of that one gentle swing of the sword!

The sword that swung gently seemed to cause the air pressure to suddenly change, triggering a transparent whirlwind.

The sword qi was like a transparent tornado, and the whirlwind was like countless whips whipping fiercely, leaving deep cracks on the ground. The storm stirred up molten iron that was melted by bullets, and it was like a raging storm that devoured all the thugs!

The black-robed criminals wailed and howled under the backlash of the airwaves and molten iron. Some of their guns were flung far away, and some unlucky ones hit their heads on the altar.

With just one strike, all the thugs in the hall were thrown off their feet.

An instant kill!

Even You Chu, a Summoner, was a little shocked.

He now felt that this game was too kind. The first spell spirit in the initial account was actually so awesome!

Looking at this valiant and heroic female swordsman with a delicate waist, slender legs, and seemingly especially good at fighting, You Chu felt extremely regretful.

It was a pity that he couldn’t spend money now. Otherwise, he would definitely spend money on this game!

No, not all the enemy had been brought down.

Only one left.

The leader on the altar stopped his ritual. He looked at You Chu and the female swordsman with uncertainty in front of him as he slowly walked down the altar.

“A young Summoner,” he said slowly. “Let me guess. You were sent by the Sheriff’s Department?”

He shook his head gently as he spoke.

“In that case, they weren’t lying when they said that the small local sheriff’s office in Black City was severely understaffed. They actually only sent a brat like you to deal with it.”

The leader did not think that the small fry in his organization had the ability to capture a Summoner—even one as young as this. Therefore, in his opinion, this young man must have deliberately sneaked in.

In all honesty, You Chu did not want to come to this godforsaken place at all.
