Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts Chapter 766: Unexpected Helper

Two days later.

Nathan took a deep breath, looking at the movent of his power inside the pool.

"That should be enough." Anubis nodded. "I will boost your ability with the Synchronization. You should focus on your speed. And since it's inside the water, it's best not to use the explosive bullets."

"Yeah, I know." Nathan squinted his eyes.

"Master Nathan. The duchess requests your presence in the dock." A maid ca to the backyard, politely informing Nathan.

"All right. I will go right now." Nathan grabbed his equipnt and rushed to the dock. He saw Lena standing in front of a total of 106 people, as they managed to get the cooperation of six summoners.

However, before he entered the stage, Nathan's vision couldn't help but shift to Flora, who was standing right at the entrance.

"Flora?" Nathan raised his eyebrows.

"Hehehe." Flora smiled playfully.

"Are you not going to co?" Nathan tilted his head in confusion.

"With my fighting style, I don't think I will be of any help." Flora waved her hand. "So, I will be waiting for you here."

Nathan looked troubled. "This is the first ti I hear that. Didn't you say you were coming yesterday?"

"What are you talking about? I only told you I was making a preparation. I didn't say anything about going to the sea myself." Flora stuck out her tongue.

"…" Nathan was speechless for a few seconds before opening his mouth. However, before a single word ca out, Flora covered his mouth with her hand.

"Please? I know I'm just going to be a burden if I go. At the very least, I don't wish to be a burden even if I can't help you. This is the extent of my help, so please… don't say anything or try to convince …" Flora smiled wryly. "Besides, I have prepared a helper who can fight better in my stead."

Flora pointed her finger to the right.

Clang!

A clicking sound echoed from behind the box as Selena ca out from her hiding spot as a ans to surprise him.

"!!!" Nathan raised his eyebrows even though he didn't look as surprised as they expected.

…

One day ago.

After telling her mother that she planned to return for a bit, Flora already had this plan in mind. Hence, as soon as she got her permission, Flora returned to their city and t Selena.

"What did you say?" Selena was dumbfounded.

"You didn't hear it wrong. Because of the situation, it seems they are going to fight under the sea. But my abilities are not really useful in the sea, so I wish soone could at least help him.

"You have Amphitrite, right? She should be able to fight there. Besides, Selena, your ena manipulation is much more suitable in that environnt compared to mine. That's why I want you to co right now and beco his strength."

Selena was confused, not by the request but by her resolve. "But you're the one who's supposed to be with him…"

That was right. Since Flora was the one going to help him with the connection, Selena didn't plan to join because she had to thank Flora by allowing her to monopolize Nathan for a few days while they were there.

However, Flora shook her head gracefully. "I don't think you're understanding , Selena. You might think that we are helping the family because Nathan helps us and we help Nathan.

"But is it alright to be just like that? I wish for all of us to help each other. I only realize this after I have lost the restraint of the royal family.

"We people who understand politics do overthink quite a lot. If you help , it will make you look like you're helping the royal family. That's why you will probably help through Nathan, which ans Nathan is the one helping .

"But I don't wish to remain that stiff. I wish for us to help each other without caring about our background. I help you, you help . Just like how we help Nathan and Nathan helps us. I believe this will help Nathan as well… Isn't he soone who dislikes too much politics?"

Selena was overwheld by Flora's words. At the sa ti, she couldn't actually refute her words.

She had always done her best to beco strong enough to be number one. Yet she only thought about it from one aspect, which was power. Even if she was the best at it, she couldn't be the best at everything.

She might have been trapped in her past because everything would crumble without her holding it. Her effort wasn't bad, but it also resulted in suppressing things that should have been possible and made her stiff in terms of family.

Flora's words just reminded her of that very important fact.

Selena took a deep breath before saying, "I might have to apologize to you and Sera after this. Sorry… and thanks."

Flora smiled.

Selena decided to co. Nathan looked astounded when Selena appeared, but it seed he had expected it to a certain extent.

As soone who knew Nathan the most, Selena smiled and asked, "Should we go?"

It sounded like Selena was trying to convince Nathan to leave Flora behind, but Nathan felt the underlying intention in her words.

It was proven when Selena suddenly grabbed Flora's left arm.

"What are you doing?" Flora was startled.

"You have selfishly gotten involved, so I'm going to selfishly drag you with ," Selena smirked.

"What?" Flora was bewildered. She wanted Nathan to explain it to her, but Nathan had already locked her other arm. "Nathan?"

"Well, even if you can't fight underwater, you can stay on the boat. Having a strong summoner protecting the boat is also good, you know?" Nathan smiled, his expression telling her he didn't accept her refusal.

After Lena told him so stories, he knew Flora would do sothing to a certain extent. There was no way he would leave her out.

"Just accept it. If you keep fighting like this, we'll drag you there. That ans the people will see your unladylike appearance. Walk properly if you don't want them to see you that way." Selena smiled, even though her eyes were threatening her. "Well, you also know his luck. You might end up being needed the most during this mission."

Flora was astounded before a smile appeared on her face. "Is that so? I still need to uphold my dignity as the first princess, so it can't be helped."
