917 Marshall Academy ( 6 )
"He wants you to teach Summoning Arts?" Zeno repeated.
Obviously, they weren't referring to the Arcane Path. After all, it requires a grimoire to do that. The Summoning Arts they were talking about was their unique ability to connect to the Shadow or the Realm of the Darkness.
"Yes… He's not telling to teach so advanced techniques but just so elentary stuff level. In any case, I'm practicing so that I won't look too nervous when demonstrating." Chad replied with a chuckle.
Summoning creatures in a controlled environnt like this helps stabilize the process and their Arcane Energy as well.
"Ahem… I still need to improve their synchronization during combat, though." Chad said. He was also considering the Summoning Technique to be usable in combat, after all.
Zeno then approached the summoning circle while his cane tapped rhythmically.
He examined the Dragon Spirit Warriors carefully before nodding.
"Their forms are stable, but the summoning is connected to your life force... Ugh… This is not good for the students. But the synchronization may not be entirely your fault. This just suited you really well with your high life force…"
After saying this, he then gestured to the glowing lines of the circle .
"This design restricts their movents to this world greatly. In a real battlefield scenario, where the summoning circle dissipates, you might find their coordination improves naturally if you make so changes to it…" Zeno said as he started giving so advice to Chad.
Zeno might be considered weak in terms of strength, but his knowledge of these types of things was still higher than Chad's. Of course, Chad wasn't entirely clueless about this, but he still appreciated the man's desire to help.
Anyway, Chad still nodded as he started considering the advice.
"That makes sense. Still, I'll need to practice deploying them quickly without losing integrity."
The two of them then started brainstorming to have a student-level summoning technique that Chad could teach soon.
After so ti, Zeno's gaze softened.
"You've made remarkable progress, Chad. First of all, I can't even a single Dragon Spirit Warrior, let alone three. Just don't expect your students to be able to summon them. Just teach them to focus on summoning creatures a few levels below those Spirit Warriors." Zeno reminded.
Chad's lips curled into a slight smile after hearing this. "I'll keep that in mind." He said with a chuckle.
Zeno nodded at this as he looked at Dragon Spirit Warriors silently observing them…
"Would you like to see them in action?" Chad asked after a pause…
Zeno chuckled softly. "Why not? Show what they can do, Chad. Right… Let's see if your warriors can stand against one of the academy's training constructs."
Chad's eyes lit up, and with a nod, he gestured to the android sentinels. He had no intention of correcting Zeno and calling them Androids. Anyway, it wasn't that important.
"Activate training mode," Chad commanded.
One of the androids then stepped forward. Its unusual tallic body glowed faintly as it entered a combat-ready stance.
Chad then inford the Dragon Spirit Warriors about what they should do through his mysterious connection to them.
Soon, Chad's warriors seed to have roared as they prepared for the mock battle.
Zeno leaned on his cane while a faint smile slowly appeared on his lips.
He had seen nurous summons in action but never these Dragon Spirit Warriors, as they require a lot of ti to call them and do your bidding. He really wanted to see them fight against the renowned Andriods made by Denise…
"Let's begin!"
With a command from Chad, the Dragon Spirit Warriors moved forward, their movent weren't too fast or slow. They were more than enough to match the speed of the Android.
The halberd-wielding spirit warrior led the charge with its weapon slicing through the air!
Whoosh~
The Android it targeted responded instantly, raising a pulsing energy shield to block the strike.
It was one of the many features of Android and was commonly used by them when defending.
Bang!
The clash echoed through the hall like thunder, sending sparks and fragnts of magical residue flying.
"Ho~" Old Zeno's eyes lit up after seeing this.
Then, he saw the glaive-wielding spirit circle to the flank, using its speed to evade a volley of energy blasts fired by Another android.
It closed the distance with a spinning attack, its glaive, then continued to cut a crescent arc of light. The Android countered with a blade extension from its arm, and the two engaged in an exchange of strikes that tested their speed and power…
"Beautiful…" Zeno couldn't help but comnt as he realized how strong these two types of 'creatures' in battle.
anwhile, the greatsword-wielding spirit warrior faced off against two androids simultaneously. It swung its colossal weapon and crashed into the androids' defenses and, creating shockwaves that shook the ground.
However, the androids adapted quickly, working in tandem to outmaneuver the spirit warrior. With their synchronized movents, they were able to slowly advance their step.
"This is really interesting…"
Zeno watched from the sidelines, his arms crossed as he analyzed every move.
In the anti, Chad decided to further assist his summons.
He started using his Draconic Sense and started giving clear instructions to his Spirit Warriors.
Then, when the glaive-wielding warrior was cornered by an android, Chad channeled a surge of magic through their connection, empowering the Dragon Spirit Warrior to break free with a burst of energy.
Chad then watched as the Androids responded in kind, deploying new strategies.
"This… Why did Denise make them so strong?!"
One of the Androids unleashed a net of binding energy, ensnaring the halberd-wielding Dragon Spirit Warrior! Then, the sa thing happened to the rest of his summons!
Chad knew that the Spirit Warriors were still full of energy and could even fight the Asura he was familiar with.
However, the Androids' unusual thod of capturing their opponents made it difficult for him to see the full strength of his summons.
"Ugh... I have to let Denise know about this... This has to be fixed!"
