Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 371 Arena



Chapter 371 Arena

"It's finally the first Summoners War between two students from different classes."

"This is going to be exciting."

"I know, right?"

"Who will win?"

The students were coming to the biggest building in the school.

The size of the arena alone was 100 meters (328 feet) in radius. Due to the size of the arena, it was usually used for other competitions not limited to the school.

It could easily host more than twenty thousand people at once.

However, there was no way the students could fill it up. Even with the teachers coming, there were only about 220 people actually coming to this match.

"Welcome, welcome! It's already the most exciting time of the year. Today, there will be a battle between Nathan and Alavenya Silveresta. Come and place your bet." A guy wearing round glasses waved his hands, asking the people to come.

In front of him were two boxes with their names on it.

As one would expect, the odds of her winning were extremely high. There were numerous people betting on her. In the end, the gap between a first-year student and a second-year student was huge. In addition, the other party was the daughter of the Dragon King.

"10 gold coins for Alavenya's victory." Another person brought a pouch.

"Thank you. Let me record it." The guy smiled at first, but his smile soon faded the moment he noticed the group that suddenly came to his booth. "Eh? President Flora… This is not illegal. I assure you."

Flora had a playful smile on her face. She simply waved her hand, telling him it was fine. "I'm not going to seize the booth or anything, so you don't have to worry. In fact…"

She took out a pouch. "100 gold coins for Nathan."

"Eh?!" The guy was stunned. Now that he thought about it, Nathan was pretty close to the student council. Selena, his woman, even got the position because of that connection.

Noelle took out the same amount. "100 gold coins as well."

This time, it was Flora's time to be stunned. "Eh? Noelle? I thought you hated this kind of thing."

"I hate gambling, but this is not gambling." Noelle shook her head.

"Not gambling?" Flora smiled wryly. "You…"

"All I know is that he only takes part in a battle he can win. So, it's not a gamble."

Flora's eyebrows twitched. "You believe him so much, eh?"

"No. I just know his true nature." Noelle shook her head.

"To think that both of you are actually willing to place your bet on him. I know you're close, but this is a different level of confidence." Caroline's voice echoed in their ears.

When they turned their heads around, they already saw Caroline placing a bet on Nathan as well. "I have to show my sincerity as well. 500 gold coins for Nathan's victory."

"Oh. I thought you would be sulking after he rejected your invitation." Flora grinned, teasing her.

"I'm not petty. If a petty person holds a position of power, they will end up ruining the entire thing. Even if he doesn't win, we have shown enough of our sincerity." Caroline shrugged. "Still, it doesn't seem that the odds are that low. There seem to be more people that bet on him than I originally thought. What's the odds again?"

"3 to 1 in Alavenya's favor."

"Oh? I thought it would be 10:1. The odds are actually not that far from the battle between second-year and third-year students." Caroline squinted her eyes.

Of course, Selena and Sera had arrived first, as they accompanied Nathan to the arena. In fact, they were placing the biggest bet, totaling 1,500 gold coins. The money came from the previous missions, bounties, and Vivian.

"Still, the battle is so big that I can see almost all the teachers in the venue." Flora glanced around. "I guess they're curious about the power of a unique summoner. But for sure, they will be extremely surprised."

"Not only the teachers." Noelle sighed.

"Your grandfather… I mean, the principal will be here too?"

"Yes. He has seen Nathan's strength back then, but his current strength is simply too abnormal. If he is fighting any other second-year students other than the top three, there's a 100% chance that he will win." Noelle let out a long sigh.

Suddenly, a female voice echoed in the arena. It was so loud that everyone could hear it.

"Hello, everyone! My name is Filia Teslona. I am from the news club. Due to the scale of the event, I will be providing any explanations for this battle."

A woman with bright green hair waved her hand, albeit her figure was not easily visible, especially to people from the opposite location.

But it didn't matter. After all, her voice was enough. She continued, "Today, I'm honored to be accompanied by the most important person of the academy, Principal Sullivan Flamante. Principal Sullivan, would you like to say a word or two? You can speak normally because the crystal has been enhanced to boost your voice."

Noelle facepalmed. She thought her grandfather would be watching the show from afar, but she never thought he would be commenting on the battle.

"Noelle…" Flora tugged Noelle's arm.

"Please don't say anything."

Sullivan laughed. "I'm quite excited for this match. One is Vivian's student while the other one is the daughter of my old friend. Both of them are strong, so I'm looking forward to the battle."

"From your perspective, do you think Nathan has the ability to defeat Alavenya?"

"You don't hold back when asking a question, huh? However, I won't answer the question. It'll be unfair for those who have placed their bet."

"Fair enough. I hope you can help me to provide some information regarding their abilities and how they utilize their familiars. After all, the most exciting part in this match is the fact we finally can see the power of a unique summoner."

"I understand. I will do my best."

"There you have it. The battle between the first-year student Nathan and the second-year student Alavenya Silveresta is about to begin. The referee is Teacher Jason, Nathan's homeroom teacher.

"The summoners are entering the arena. Let's welcome them with a warm applause."
