I Became the Youngest Summoner in the Strongest Guild

The monsters attacked the barrier but it took no damage.

Just as everyone was feeling relieved due to the powerful barrier, something unbelievable happened.
A single strike from something that flew in among the attacking monsters shattered the barrier into pieces.

Taking advantage of this opening, monsters began climbing up the walls.

Numerous players on top of the walls started protecting their allies and facing off against the monsters climbing up.

Due to the countless monsters, the battlefield became chaotic and the magic circle began to shake.

A magic circle that applied debuffs to monsters and buffs to players.

The cause was the black magic of numerous liches visible in the distance.

"How can there be so many liches!?"
"Kill the liches first!"

To eliminate the liches, they would need to break through the monsters to approach, but it was impossible.

As cracks began to form in the magic circle, the worst situation unfolded.

With the broken magic circle, monsters began to rampage wildly.

Players were desperately holding them back.

Countless strong players had gathered, but was there no match for sheer numbers?

A similar number of players had gathered, but there was one fact they had overlooked.

Undead monsters were being continuously created.

Using dead players and monsters as materials, undead monsters were born, causing a numerical disadvantage in this critical moment.
As the moon covered the sun, darkness fell upon the earth.

In an instant, both players and monsters looked up at the sky, when a sound loud enough to split heaven and earth rang out.

"I've found you, my child."

On the way back to the city from the fox village.

After calculating, it seemed we would arrive just in time.

While leisurely enjoying the view of the sky and earth, I saw the city in the distance.

But something was different.

[Channels are being integrated due to the main quest.]
[CHAPTER 2: Protect the commercial city of Thalassa.]
Invasion begins.

Realizing I was a bit late due to the message that appeared, I tried to move quickly, but couldn't get close.

Numerous monsters were already invading the city, and Rin said we couldn't approach any further because of the huge magic circle floating in the sky.

"Benefactor. It's dangerous to get close."
"What should we do? We need to protect the city..."

Although I said I would help monsters, monsters attacking the city are an exception.

If you want to harm someone else's life, you must be willing to risk your own life.

While pondering, I saw the Ring of Sealing on my finger.

If I take this off, Dragon King Ernia's mark will activate and she can pinpoint my location.
A brilliant idea.

Wouldn't she grant my request to get rid of those monsters?

"Kyuung!"
"No, don't worry."

Our Yong-yong, worrying about me even in this situation and saying to leave it to him.

Our Yong-yong is too fearless.

After stroking his head and saying it's okay, I asked to be let down on a hill.

With a tense heart, I took off the Ring of Sealing on a hill overlooking the entire city.

[You can use mana by removing the Ring of Sealing.]

I can use mana now, so shouldn't I try it at least once?

"Skill: Moon Shadow activate."

The moon completely covered the sun, and darkness fell in an instant.

[Due to the effect of the Moon Shadow skill, your summon's stats are greatly increased.]
I'm not sure about the effect, but I love the impact.

At that moment, I heard a voice.

"I've found you, my child."

Dragon King Ernia appeared, with beautiful jet-black hair, snow-white skin, and ruby-red eyes. Wearing an elegant dress and exuding a seductive atmosphere.

As she slowly approached me, Rin blocked her path.

I looked at Ernia, whose expression hardened, then told Rin it was okay and made her step back before approaching.

"It's been a while! Thanks to your help last time, I was able to hatch Yong-yong safely."
"Of course I had to help, it was for my child."

She stroked my head with a bright smile, but why does it feel creepy?

"Well then, my child. Shall we go now?"
"I have a request before that."

When I pointed towards the monsters, she glanced over once and waved her hand.

The monsters all stopped attacking at once and began to retreat.

And then a message appeared.

[You have successfully protected the commercial city of Thalassa.]

Rankings based on contribution are being measured.
Please wait a moment.

No.1: Yuna
No.2: Catlleya
No.3: Zeus
No.4: Hecate
No.5: Blinka

Rewards will be given based on contribution.
[Channels will normalize in 1 minute after the quest ends.]

"My child is too kind-hearted, it worries mother."
"Huh? Mother?"

With a bright smile, a door appeared in front of me.

The door slowly began to open, and she told me to enter quickly.

The moment I entered the door, space shifted.

An unfamiliar place.

A message appeared.

[You have visited Dragon King Ernia's lair.]

As I was looking around in surprise at the enormous size, Ernia embraced me with a gentle touch.

"My child. Shall we look around together with mother?"

At that moment, I suddenly became curious about something.

"Why do you call yourself mother?"

Hearing those words, she showed tears as if shocked, and I hurriedly took out a handkerchief from my inventory and handed it to her. This time she looked at me with a moved expression.

"It's alright, my child. You'll remember everything as time passes."

She whispered in a warm voice, but I really don't understand.

As I looked around following Ernia, to summarize in one word: it's crazy.

Each room was piled with gold and silver treasures, and top-rank magic stones were rolling on the floor.

Our Yong-yong was drooling at the sight.
Anyone would think he hadn't eaten for three days.

I took out a magic stone from my inventory and handed it over, but he compared the top-rank magic stone lying on the floor with the high-rank magic stone I gave him.

When I put away the high-rank and took out a top-rank, only then did he eat it.

Now he won't even eat high-rank ones, what should I do?

"That child has grown a lot too."

As she spoke while looking at Yong-yong, her expression suddenly hardened.

"Something wicked has attached itself."

Hearing those words, Yong-yong also glared with fierce eyes.

Feeling like something big was about to happen, I said I wanted to look around, and only then did she smile and move.

What was that just now?

While stroking the head of our sleeping child, I looked at the snake. No, the dragon looking at me.

"It seems you've been protecting our child all this time, so I won't say anything. You're no longer needed, so disappear from our child's side."

At that moment, the eyes looking at me were filled with immense power.

To have this much power without even ascending.

[I know you have no intention of harming the contractor, but don't cross the line.]

"You were making cute noises until just now, are you putting on airs?"

[Stop talking nonsense. I know who you're projecting onto our contractor. It must be the child who died in the fight between the Black Dragon Clan and the Red Dragon Clan.]

"She didn't die. She's right in front of me, isn't she?"

[How pitiful and foolish.]

I want to tear apart the dragon in front of me, but that would surprise our child.

What should I do.

At that moment, the dragon proposed a deal to me.

[Let's make a deal.]

"Ridiculous. Deals can only be made between equals on equal terms."

[I'll bring your child from the netherworld. How about it?]

"......"

I don't understand what you're saying right now.

[Decide before the effect of Moon Shadow disappears.]

I don't know, but tears are flowing from my eyes.

What is this...?

[The terms of the deal are simple. Keep it a secret from the contractor...]

"If only... If I can only see my child, I'll do anything..."

[The deal is made.]

With those words, the dragon disappeared from my sight.

I don't know how a dragon that hasn't even ascended can do this, but the tears flowing from my eyes wouldn't stop.

I actually knew.

The child sleeping in front of me, no, Yuna, is not my child.

I was just running away because I couldn't accept reality.

How much time has passed.

Someone wiped away the tears flowing from my eyes.

The moment I turned my head, I saw the face.

A girl with long, straight black hair, snow-white skin, and ruby-red eyes.

The face I had only dreamed of.

My only daughter.

"Child."
"I'm back, mom."
