Chapter 72.1 (2/2)

“Erm.. I don’t think there’s a need for that…”

A protest so weak even a breeze could blow it away came from his mouth.

“I’ve already decided on who to summon and a tier 8 should be enough to deal with this matter so we don’t need to consider another candidate at the moment…or that’s what I think…”

This is one of the no zuo no die moment and yet he went ahead and done f.u.c.k it up. He has no choice, if he really asked the System and a positive response came then he would have no option other than to summon a tier 9. But he’s sooo dead set on this one, he must summon it.

Sure this girl didn’t need 200’000 and by extension her strength pales in comparison to one of such caliber. However, strength and whatnot can go screw itself when compared to the summon’s character.

So why beat around the bush? Well, as said this is a no zuo no die moment and he is in for it now… if he said it, it would surely hasten his inevitable demise…

Oh good G.o.d, Hinagiku has a very dangerous squint to her eyes right now, she’s staring at him with a very doubtful att.i.tude.

“I say, it’s just asking the System why are you so prejudiced against the idea? Tier 8 is enough probably but isn’t a tier 9 more rea.s.suring? Our moveset could be more diverse if we had a tier 9 yes? Why are you so opposed to it? Could it be that…”

While saying this, Hinagiku strecthed out one of her hand and ‘smack’ it landed on his shoulder lightly, with a beautiful countenance and a sweet tone she interrogated him.

“You have something else that you’re not sharing with us at the moment, a hidden agenda so to speak?”

His body flinched in terror the moment her hand touched his shoulder, when she showed that dazzling smile that’s when he’s starting to p.i.s.s his pants. Only he would know the true nature that hides behind the dazzling smile, it’s like the attractive allure of a demon. He really looked that suspicious what with the avoidance of eye contact and fidgety appearance, it seemed like he’s guilty of something.

“It’s just that.. It’s my humblest opinion that we shouldn’t use power and strength to judge a summon nominee. The individual would be our comrade after that is it not, if we just use strength as a criterion to weed out samples then it would make us very tunneled vision you see..”

Like a master of sophistry he said that like the truth is standing behind him.

“That so?”

Mikoto also started doubting him for having other motives, based on his appearance and speech patterns, this is very suspicious.

“…”

Never has he felt such great pressure what with facing against two chicks that could very well turn into tigresses on him.

Holy s.h.i.t do they really expect him to tell that who he’s about to summon is a chick who has a rocking body, docile and obedient a majority of the time, soft and tender to the touch, who could turn into an enemy’s worst nightmare at a switch of mode. Her airheadedness is through the roof and probably is very easy to push down on bed at any moment, a being that would call him master in a soft and mellow voice, the embodiment of an otaku’s dream, the legendary G.o.ddess of all otaku males?

If he really said it out loud, forget tigress the two girls would go Asura modo on him.

“I have a hunch that you’re hiding something here…”

The two girls shot a glare at him, they can’t find anything to argue against in his seemingly reasonable words. But it’s fishy as h.e.l.l that’s for sure.

“Maa, don’t say that, she’s going to be a comrade that fights side by side with us through good times and bad times, although we haven’t summoned her yet what you’re saying right now is very rude.”

He had a serious face as he said this, but how much of him is actually serious that will have to be discussed the next time.

“You have a point…”

After hearing him the two girls did feel they were being a bit rude. However, they just couldn’t curb the feeling that something is off here, when he said through good times and bad times they felt like they’re missing something very crucial here.

Seeing as the two are stumped by him he tried to hurry the whole thing along before they catch up to him.

“Alright, I will begin the summoning soon, you girls should hit the sack, or do you want to stay and watch the peep show?”

“What do you mean by peep show? Can’t you use a more colloquial phrase like watch the show?”

Although one must say he sure can divert a subject, he has already moved s.h.i.t pa.s.s the radar without the two even noticing it.

With a few dry laughs he relaxed when he saw the two girls didn’t have any notion of pursuing the subject.

But they still might catch up to him if he let the opportunity slip, to prevent any unexpected circ.u.mstances from c.o.c.kblocking him he pulled out the list without even mentioning what he’s doing. With G.o.dly speed he quickly found the target of summon…

Ikaros: A character from sora no otos.h.i.+mono, self proclaimed entertainment super versatile angel, her true nature is Strategic Angeloid Type α, a strategical weapon, nicknamed sky queen; Summoning points 100’000.

That’s right! Ikaros!

The dream of otaku males! Savage and soft at times, one that could be poked and touched, a G.o.ddess of otakus that could be pushed down and raised! Ikaros!

With much heavy breathing he clicked summon in a timeframe of less than 0.01 second…
