Re-Awakening with the Summoner's Class-Chapter 33: Void
Chapter 33: Void
"You saw... nothing!"
Sylvaine screamed as she turned off the video, her face was as red as a beetroot and her breathing grew heavy.
She could feel her heart beating fast, to cool off, she submerged her head halfway into the bathtub.
"I was wondering what took you so long to call me..."
Her voice screamed of insecurity and embarrassment, the scream was so loud that even the dense Leo could tell.
"I'm sorry. I just got my phone, and you were the only person I had a contact number for."
Leo answered, sitting on the floor of the van, unable to get the image of Sylvaine's naked body out of his head.
He stood up and opened the window, letting the breeze wash over his face.
"How are the things going in America?"
Even though the start of their conversation was rather uncomfortable, she wanted to continue it, if only for a bit longer.
"They are pretty difficult, we are preparing to take on the Hydra gate media keeps talking about. I hope the gates aren't as hard back home."
The summoner chuckled, feeling a bit more at ease now that he could speak on friendly terms with her.
They kept talking like that for another 15 minutes, be it about the encounters at the gates or different things they found as rewards.
Once the topic reached his current predicament with the Corrupter Shards, Sylvaine turned a bit more serious about their topic, trying to take in as much information as possible.
"I understand, we will be wary of it, thank you a lot once again."
It took a few tries, but she had finally begun to trust him which made him happy about how far he came in such a short time.
"yawn I'm sorry... I think I'll go to sleep..."
By the end of their conversation, both of them forgot about how weird the start of it was, minus Leo's memory becoming very sharp about certain topics all of a sudden.
He slapped himself out of this, feeling like it was very rude to do that which confused The Fearmonger who had been watching him curiously the entire time.
"Oh boy, it seems our dear Master became possessed ~"
She flew over and circled Leo while teasing him about acting like a hormonal teenager.
Leo tried to ignore her to the best of his abilities, taking the spot where she sat previously, trying to catch some sleep while they were still driving. But no matter what, he was still hearing the demons teasing words.
Meanwhile, Sylvaine was still sitting in the bathtub, covering her face with her hands and kicking her legs.
'I can't believe he saw me like that, I won't be able to get married now...'

"Who are we even waiting for?"
A short woman pouted and tapped her foot against the ground angrily. She looked around and counted everyone surrounding her.
"We have well over 50 people here and you are telling me we need to wait for someone who can't even communicate with us?"
She took out a one-handed axe and held it like a two-handed one due to her small frame. A tall and muscular man crouched and held out both of his hands apologetically.
"Now Now, wait Lisa, I bet there is a reason why they told us to wait for him, you must have heard about his skills."
The gentle giant's words seemed to just put more fuel to the fire as another person jumped into their conversation.
He took out a spear and lodged it to the ground, leaning on it for support as he spoke.
"Like we would believe those obvious lies, 5 gates in 2 days is impossible for a party of 50 like us, let alone a single person."
Now that she was being supported by someone else in her opinion, the short girl kept cussing out everyone, from her lieutenant to the CEO.
One thing that connected the three of them was their clothes. All of them were identical, aside from their sizes.
"AAATEEENTION!"
A woman shouted which made all of them stand in formation with the hand on their head, saluting to her.
"We will attempt to subdue the blue-rank gate. As the documents mentioned its setting is defending the village. Today we will team up with Leo Astralis of the SoulCaller guild, do you understand?!"
Her voice imposing to a scary degree, but a single person stood out from the crowd, grabbing the lieutenant's attention.
"What is it you dirty maggot?"
The man who stood out shook as he spoke.
"Why do we need to wait for someone else sir!"
He didn't get an answer as everyone gasped, seeing her approach him slowly while laughing under her nose.
She put both of her hands on his shoulders and lowered her head, clicking her tongue and shaking her head.
Then she looked up, digging her nails into his shoulders and crying.
"Because we are weak guys!!! We couldn't even beat the last one without running to ask that dog Adam for help!"
They all tore up as she said it, all the time until now they have been lying to themselves about their skills, too blinded to see reality.
"I wanna go home!!!"
One person cried in the crowd, being comforted by her comrades who stood around her.
Beep beep
A van was approaching them, and doing so at a fast speed, seeming like it won't stop at all.
"It's him, guys!!! Back into position, the last thing we need is for them to realize we are frauds."
They went back to standing perfectly still as their lieutenant screamed random buzzwords.
The van stopped and its doors opened, revealing Gloppy and Nyssa arguing about who will take the stronger enemy this time.
"Rock, paper, scissors! Ha, I won, this makes it 3-1."
Nyssa shouted happily, ignoring the Climbers grouped up next to the gate, which didn't sit still with the short girl who approached her.
"Hey, we are the ones who allowed you to join us, and as you see there are more of us than you. So some respect would be nice."
Leo walked towards them slowly, letting the cool breeze go through his hair.
"I'm extremely sorry for my friend's bad behavior."
Gloppy tried to speak up but the summoner prevented him, winking to signalize that he had a plan.
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
Both of them, be it the slime and the brawler bowed to show that they were really sorry, satisfying the short girl.
'Nice thinking Lisa! They will think we are some kind of bigshots now!'
The lieutenant giggled happy that she would be able to lie her way through this once again.
[Ruby, summon as many as the three of you can control.]
On the nearby hill, a sudden sea of slimes appeared, each one toppling over another like a wave, running towards them.
"A gate break already?! Break formation, save your lives guys!"
They all ran off scared of the sight in front of them, leaving the group behind all alone.
"Is it okay for us to just steal it like that?"
Deep inside, the girl felt bad for stealing their property like that, but Leo didn't mind at all.
"Ruby, throw me the last shard."
Ruby did as he commanded, throwing him the last gemstone as he already had the other 4 in his hands.
As they combined, a black sphere with five purple rings manifested itself.
[Corrupted Orb]
[Contains the power of the Void]
The gate behind sucked the orb out of his hands just as it was created.
CRACK!
