"Temporary…ten times summon on the Standard Familiar Banner…Now!" He initiated.
[Summon x10 Initiated!]
As he picked himself upon while standing on the crumbling rubble on the side of the mountain, the temporary warriors manifested around him; goblins wielding bows, humanoid warriors wielding spears, and even some more monstrous figures, such as a silver-furred bear, came to his aide.
'If I bring any of my permanent familiars here…They'll only get killed by him. This is the best I can do right now!' He thought.
Constantine flew through the air like a shining star, giving off a golden luminescence in the night sky as he danced around the arrows and spears flung in his direction.
"Useless! Useless! Useless!"
Like a curving band of light, Constantine cut through the temporary forces summoned by Jett, making his way towards the summoner himself before–
'Here it comes…This is what I was hoping for! It looks like luck is on my side tonight!' He thought.
Something that made even Constantine stop in complete awe revealed itself; a summon that brought Jett upon its back, uncoiling itself from the mountain as if once one with the colossal, natural structure of the world.
It was snake-like, covered in verdant and rocky scales, with hair of leaves and whiskers of primordial branches; a dragon that appeared to be of a foreign land as it lacked any wings, yet naturally flew through the air as a majestic existence.
[New Familiar Temporarily Obtained | (UR) Ten Great Dragon Kings: Shanlong | Special Traits: Ruler of Mountains!]
[ATK: 500 | DEF: 800 | MAG: 500]
Jett took to the air upon the back of the gargantuan, mythical dragon, standing upon its back that resembled the hide of a mountain as he couldn't help but smile as Constantine gave chase through the clouds.
"You can't run!" Constantine shouted through the sky.
Standing upon the back of such a grand beast that heeded his call granted him a reignition of confidence he sorely needed in the face of such an overwhelming foe as he shouted out in return, "Who said anything about running?! Shanlong, I don't know what it is, but do your thing!"
To his surprise his command was heard by the colossal beast as it moved its serpentine body through the clouds as if swimming through the air itself, letting out a low, primordial bellow before it primed its malice towards the radiant man darting alongside them.
Expecting a great breath of flames to escape the mouth of the dragon of high reverence, Jett found himself surprised as what instead was shot from Shanlong's mouth was a river's worth of steaming water, shooting straight towards Constantine.
"Woah–!" Constantine reacted, being forced to evade.
It was definitely somewhat of a challenge to keep himself clung to the mountainous dragon's back as it moved with an unhindered flow as if dancing through the sky, agile and swift for its size as it poured out its boiling breath towards their foe.
'Alright…While it keeps him busy, I need to see if I can find some proper tools to fight with!' He planned.
"Summon! Weapon and Familiar banners! Times Five!" He commanded.
[Summon x10 Initiated!]
There was no doubt he was burning through all of the money he had accumulated for his efforts, though there was no greater purpose than that moment.
'Should I use my SR ticket now? Maybe…There's almost an endless catalog of things to choose from though,' he thought.
[New Weapon Obtained | (R) Ethereal Spear | Special Traits: Duplication!]
[New Weapon Obtained | (R) Onyx Bracers | Special Traits: Tough & Mean!]
It was the first he had seen of such a result–from the Standard Weapon Banner, he obtained jet-black gauntlets that naturally replaced the gloves he wore on his hands.
'Nice, this can work!' He thought.
It was almost an automatic process for him: the unwanted, at least for the moment, results from his summons were instantly stored into his [Void Inventory], unless they were spells or skills, which naturally etched themselves into his body.
While most of his familiar summons resulted in goblins that would be of no use to him in the battle against Constantine, especially one on dragon back amidst the clouds, two special summons arrived as pillars upon the grand beast's back.
[New Familiar Obtained | (R) Diamond Eye Virale | Special Traits: Accurate!]
[ATK: 15 | DEF: 10 | MAG: 30]
An elven archer with sapphire hair and two different colored eyes, with the right being yellow and the left being unique in itself, dazzling like a diamond. The red-and-brown uniformed archer immediately drew his bow and arrow, aiming towards the radiant warrior evading the dragon's breath.
"Ready at your side, Master," Virale said, seamlessly transitioning into battle upon being summoned.
[New Familiar Obtained | (SR) Peerless Champion Achilles | Special Traits: Impervious!]
[ATK: 35 | DEF: ??? | MAG: 20]
A proud warrior manifested with an emerald-tipped spear in his left hand and an immaculate shield with imagery of cities of people and worldly constructs etched onto it. He wore dazzling, golden armor that was placed over black leather and wore an air of confidence that came with his recognizable origin.
"Achilles?! I summoned Achilles?!" Jett reacted.
"At your service, Master," Achilles winked, "So, who am I slaying on this fine night? Upon a dragon's back, no less."
"That shining bastard in the sky!" Jett pointed.
Achilles squinted in the distance, seeing the radiant figure that danced around the dragon's steaming breath, "I see. Leave it to me, then. I will bring honor and triumph to your name."
"Hell yeah! Let's get him! You hear that, Virale?!" Jett looked over at the elven archer.
"Loud and clear," Virale quietly responded, squinting as he aimed with his diamond eye towards the swiftly flying enemy.
The arrows released by the diamond-eyed archer launched with small sonic booms, released from the string with a chime of the air before the arrow penetrated the air swiftly and with mystical precision.
–Close, it came to reaching the rapid, shining figure, though it failed to land as Constantine proved too elusive even for such precise sharpshooting.
"Tch," Virale clicked his tongue.
"Don't worry about it! Just keep pressuring him!" Jett called out.
