I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 253

Celestial Realm (1)

Rachel disappeared.

Along with her, her summoned creatures also vanished, and naturally the sturdy Sky Dome began to disappear as well.

Snap!

Is this what it feels like to have your mind awakened?

Even though he had maintained a tense state throughout, it felt like awakening one more layer beyond that.

“Ha.”

Baek Jin-woo let out a hollow laugh.

He never expected Rachel to be sent away alone like that, but do you know what’s even more vicious?

They sent only Rachel away.

What about the others?

They’re telling everyone here to just die.

Now he had to choose.

Whether they would all somehow cross through that gate together.

Or just fall like this and continue the endless fighting again.

He had to make a quick decision.

Crack!

The cracks in the dome were spreading like a spider web.

Through those gaps, the angels’ attacks were forcing their way in.

“…Everyone’s going across.”

“Over there?”

“How…”

“I don’t know either!”

Baek Jin-woo shouted.

“There’s no other way! It’s one of two options! Cross over, or die!”

He didn’t have the luxury of speaking politely as usual.

The current leader was Baek Jin-woo.

He had to give commands as briefly and swiftly as possible.

‘If we go down like this, there’s no answer anyway.’

The members’ summoned creatures were already close to being incapacitated.

Also, Baek Jin-woo’s summoned creatures didn’t have infinite MP either.

There wasn’t even a protective barrier.

Time was on the System’s side, not theirs.

In such a situation, falling down there would only be a matter of time before death.

“Everyone get on the Sky Wyverns! Those whose wyverns died, climb onto my Destruction Dragon!”

– Kroaaaaaaaa!

The Destruction Dragon roared.

The members who came to their senses also moved swiftly.

They prepared the maximum possible defenses they could in preparation for the dome that would soon shatter.

19 members of the assault team excluding Rachel.

Being Earth’s top veterans, not a single one fell into panic.

“Mayeo.”

– Meow!

“As soon as we cross over, find and guide us to the source.”

– I’ll try my best, meow!

And finally!

Kwagagagagagaga!

The golden protective barrier tore apart explosively.

The floor that had been supporting them turned to powder and scattered in all directions.

From all sides, thousands, no, tens of thousands of angels came pouring in.

The Heavenly Army.

The angels mercilessly swung their spears and swords.

Their wingbeats created powerful air pressure and storms, with attacks rushing from every direction.

And at that moment.

Kaang!

Runde, who had been hammering away since earlier, shouted.

– Ramba!

– Woong!

– Take this!

Whoosh!

The staff that Runde threw spun around and settled into Ramba’s grasp.

Storm Bringer.

A status window naturally appeared in Baek Jin-woo’s vision.

[Storm Bringer]

[Grade: Legendary]

[Type: Staff]

– Exclusive staff for Wind Fairy (EX-grade).

– A masterpiece created by the legendary blacksmith Runde by carving the soul of the corresponding summoned creature.

[Effect 1: Agility + 500%]

[Effect 2: Each swing generates a powerful tornado that sweeps the surroundings.]

Wow.

A legendary grade he’s seeing for the first time, with new effects too!

He’d like to be happy about it, but there’s no time for that!

– Hyaaaaaaah!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Each time Storm Bringer was swung, the air tore and massive tornadoes were generated.

And.

Tornadoes boast the worst compatibility against winged beings.

“Good!”

Baek Jin-woo shouted.

The rushing angels were being swept away by Ramba and pushed back in all directions.

That wasn’t all.

Whoosh!

Pokryong squeezed out all its energy and loaded fire into the tornado.

Fire and wind have good compatibility.

It supplied tremendous oxygen to small sparks, growing the flames.

Whoosh, whooooosh!

The Pokryong Faction and tornado combined, and a giant pillar of fire began to dominate the sky.

The angels screamed and were annihilated.

Then finally, visibility was secured.

“Over there!”

The Destruction Dragon took the lead and flew toward the Gate of the Heavens.

The Sky Wyverns followed in formation behind it.

“Never stop!”

Kaaaang!

Eila drove her shield right into the back of the Destruction Dragon.

On top of the barrier?

– Grwooooooo!

Jakgeo clung tightly and took on all the tanking instead.

– Let’s gooooooo!

Ramba also swung her staff so hard her arms might fall off.

The gap was getting closer and closer.

The Gate of the Heavens, filled with light, spread majestically before them.

The angels’ movements were becoming increasingly rough.

From the looks of it, the System seemed to have given an order.

To stop them by any means necessary, using whatever methods they could.

What did that mean?

That entering through that gap was the best choice for now.

“Break through! Just pour everything into it!”

At Baek Jin-woo’s shout, all the summoned creatures concentrated their firepower.

With an explosion, a path opened up.

“I don’t care anymore! Just jump in!”

“Yes!”

“Here we go!”

“Let’s meet again alive!”

“Hup!”

Baek Jin-woo, gripping tightly onto the horn-like protrusions on the Destruction Dragon’s back, took a deep breath.

The moment they touched the gap.

“Kugh!”

A crushing pressure that tore at all his senses rushed in.

Kwaaaaaa!

Along with blinding light, an ear-splitting explosion echoed.

“Kyaaaaa!”

Someone’s scream could be heard, but even that disappeared in the chaos.

Whiiiing! Whoosh whoosh!

His vision spun as if caught in a tornado.

It wasn’t wind, but space itself seemed to be shaking them with pressure.

It felt like his body was being pulled in dozens of directions simultaneously.

– Protect Master!

– Everyone stick together!

Though everything scattered far away, our summoned creatures could endure that pressure and didn’t fall away from near the Destruction Dragon.

What could Baek Jin-woo do?

Just trust his summoned creatures, close his eyes, hold his breath, and endure.

After doing so for several minutes.

A cool breeze brushed past his cheek.

Blue sky and pure white clouds.

“…Kugh.”

A voice that wouldn’t come out finally leaked through.

Baek Jin-woo was falling.

The Celestial Realm was a world like walking on sky.

Massive golden cloud bridges were intertwined like mountain ranges.

Below the bridges were endless waterfalls of light, and the waterfalls’ ends scattered into the void.

What was certain.

This was a mystical sight he was seeing for the first time in his life.

– Father! Are you okay?

– Pull yourself together, Master!

Fortunately, all his summoned creatures were near him.

“The other… members?”

– They’ve all scattered. It would be difficult to find them now… We can only hope they’re alive.

– First! We need to close that gate, nya!

Angel legions were still floating in the sky.

Most had crossed over, but these were the ones who hadn’t made it across yet.

The fortunate thing was?

All four of the most troublesome-looking archangels had crossed over to the continent!

– We don’t know if they can cross back over or not, but let’s quickly close it, nya!

Mayeo seemed to have been casting spells on the Destruction Dragon’s back since earlier.

She quickly grasped the location.

And pointed with her finger.

– Over there, nya!

– I’ll go destroy it, Father!

Thud!

Aso kicked off the Destruction Dragon’s back and leaped up.

Being sensitive to energy, she immediately understood where Mayeo was pointing.

Whoosh!

She drew her wooden sword.

Slash!

And cut through it.

One Flash Heaven and Earth.

Flash!

The source of energy connected to form the dimensional gate contained astronomical amounts of energy.

Since that was split, the aftermath had to be tremendous!

Boom!

The bursting radiance was blindingly bright, and the Destruction Dragon was also swept away and pushed back by the aftermath.

At the same time.

Rummmmmble!

The split gap began to close.

Also, energy began exploding continuously from the gap.

“Kyaaaaa!”

“Kraaaaa!”

The angels in the sky died without being able to resist at all.

Their wings were engulfed in flames, and their bodies burst apart.

It was because the gate collapsed on its own and they were swept up in the aftermath.

The Destruction Dragon wasn’t unharmed either.

It fluttered through the air as if caught in rapids, then crash-landed with a CRASH onto what appeared to be a marble floor of a crystal city.

Naturally, Baek Jin-woo was also thrown off.

– Jin-woo!

If Eila hadn’t jumped out and embraced him protectively, he probably would have suffered fractures or died instantly.

Roll roll roll.

He rolled around like a ball crazily before stopping.

“Haa, haa…”

Lying spread-eagle, he looked up at the sky.

Fatigue rushed over him all at once.

‘Is it all over?’

He didn’t have time to think.

No matter how much he had learned Geoncheong-simgong and trained his body, Baek Jin-woo was human.

He wasn’t a summoned creature.

If he hadn’t even learned that, the probability of dying here would have been even higher…

‘Anyway, I survived.’

That was exactly what he remembered.

The film had snapped.

When I opened my eyes, I was in some large room.

The fatigue had completely disappeared.

– I healed you.

The first to approach and speak was Dampir.

Drain… was this a skill that could be used on Players too?

The throbbing pain had vanished, and the minor wounds all over my body were gone.

All my summoned creatures were there.

The Destruction Dragon curled up and sleeping.

Kaang, kaang!

Pokryong and Runde who was making her staff beside him.

– Gweo.

Jakgeo, Eila, and Doldoli standing guard at the door.

Mayeo casting some kind of spell.

All summoned creatures except EX-grade ones?

They had all been reverse-summoned.

Creatures like the Precision Security Officer and Sky Wyvern.

I would only be able to summon them again after leaving the Tower of Trials…

‘I should consider them almost unsummonable.’

Since I’ve completely fallen out with the System…

– Jin-woo, are you alright?

– Jin-woo! You’re awake? I was so worried!

Pokryong and Ramba approached and welcomed me.

“…Where are Aso and Hunkyo?”

Come to think of it, those two weren’t here.

But they hadn’t been reverse-summoned either.

A Player can immediately tell when a summoned creature is reverse-summoned.

Ramba answered.

– Hunkyo is scouting the terrain in the nearby area, and Aso seems to be searching the Celestial Realm for survivors.

“Ah.”

Survivors.

My head hurt.

It felt like I had finally entered a Tower of Trials that was truly like the Tower of Trials.

I think I felt this kind of helplessness when I first experienced the Tower of Trials in Battle of Summoners…

– The good news is that there aren’t many troops nearby. It seems they pulled out everything they had and sent them. The forces that were here seem to have all perished or been injured when the gate closed.

“Really?”

That’s somewhat fortunate.

But I couldn’t let my guard down.

Baek Jin-woo had witnessed the System’s madness this time.

That madness to stop and eliminate him by any means necessary!

‘Right.’

Sending Rachel away like that from there?

I didn’t know what it would do next.

The Tower of Trials floors 91 and above might open to this side, or… the demons and angels gathered on that continent might use some method again to open a dimensional gate.

Whatever it was.

I needed to prepare countermeasures.

And those countermeasures?

“Mayeo.”

– Meow meow, I knew master would look for me first, so I was already preparing!

Right.

Mayeo is the best after all.

“Hueot!”

Rachel opened her eyes.

The air of Jamsil, Seoul.

“Huff, huff…!”

Tears were welling up in her eyes as she gasped for breath.

“Damn it!”

She spat out every curse she could think of while kicking the innocent floor.

A staff member who had been stationed there approached Rachel.

“Rachel!”

“What’s the matter!”

“Did you come out alone?”

And right at that moment.

Kururung!

The ground shook.

A strong earthquake of at least magnitude 5.

It was an earthquake of the same intensity as when the Chaos Dragon had appeared before.

At the same time.

[Emergency patch incoming!]

Crack.

Rachel gritted her teeth and threw her head back.

That hateful message.

Right, what kind of crap are you trying to pull on us who came out like this?
