Summoner: Monster Girl Harem!

Dirk charged into a goblin, smashing its face with a visceral crack. Odette shot a firebolt at a goblin, which was going to attack his flank. Its head popped off cleanly with a small bang.

The sound of several objects cutting through the air reached Vincent's ears. Felia had shot four arrows in an instant. Her shots never missed as the iron tips pierced the necks of four goblins as they fell with a thud.

"Wow, you guys are really in sync." Vincent said. He watched the three protecting each other's weakness. Odette covered Dirk's weak flank while Felia protected them both from ranged attacks.

'Ah, they really are. No wonder they were the top candidates for the class.' Violetta thought to herself.

She walked over towards the goblins with a short dagger. Then turned to the students. "Now, I'm going to teach you how to carve the daemons you fell. Most of them will have a small core in their chests or head, depending on the types. The books in the monster bestiary section of the library should tell you. As for the goblin. It's inside their head."

*Slush*

Her knife cut through the skull of the goblin with ease.

"Use your mana along the edge of your knife. It uses less mana this way." She carved into the grey matter and finally a black stone roughly 5cm in length was visible.

"This is a mana stone, shard or crystal, depending on the rank of the daemon killed. Take it to the adventurers' guild for fast money at a lower price. The dungeon seeker's guild pay a little more, but it could take several hours. So think ahead when inside the dungeon when and how you'll sell the bounty."

The knife spun in her hand, cutting the goblin ears off cleanly.

"We also use these for minor quests. The money isn't anything great, but for poor households like you, Vincent, it can help. Your mother is leaving after all…"

'Eh? How does she know my mother is leaving? Is she an Esper?' Vincent thought.

'I'm glad these brats listen well. Not interrupting me despite having questions.'

Violetta thought. She threw the dagger to Dirk and walked back towards the rear of the party with a sway.

"Tsk, just this negligible amount of movement.."

Her hand was twitching as she held it with her right hand to hide the strange action.

"I'll answer any question's once we get back after clearing the first floor."

"Yes, Teacher!" The students said in sync.

She tried her best to hide the issue with her hand. But Vincent saw her struggling. He'd been curious since she mentioned his mother. Then he saw an insignia hanging from her neck hidden within her combat robe.

'It was the same one that mother had. Is she from Mom's party?' Vincent thought. He watched the silver eagle pendant moving between her cleavage.

"You will split into two groups from now on. Since the path ahead splits into two, it looks like a good time. Felia, Dirk and Odette will take the left path. I will head right with Vincent. Don't worry, the right path has fewer enemies. Look there!"

She pointed towards the lights above the paths. The left path had two blinking gemstones, the right had one.

"I don't know why, but these show the power and number of monsters. Remember the colours also change depending on the strength. We know that blue is the weakest and red follows. For the order of colours, check the library. It's not like I have all day to stay in this smelly cave."

"I want to be with Vincent! But following the rules is important. Please don't miss me too much, Vincent."

Felia skipped away after speaking. Dirk followed her, giving a nod and a smile to Vincent.

'He was more reliable than I thought. I should try to become friends with him!'

Dirk thought. His evaluation of Vincent had increased during this dungeon. Odette followed Dirk. She ignored the pair before once again giving a look of hate to Silvari. The small ice like fairy was asleep on Vincent's shoulder.

"Lets head out, Vincent. Although I said this side is easier, don't expect my help."

'I couldn't help even if I wanted to right now… I'm sorry Verda, if something happens I'll protect him with my life.' She thought.

"Understood teacher!"

We walked down the right passage. The walls were narrow and filled with a slime like fluid. He was worried there were other types of monsters, but Violetta just laughed at him and said the first floor only had goblins. This made him relax.

Silvari woke up suddenly and looked around her hand wiped her eyes. Vincent noticed her horn had changed. It was now covering her right eye in the shape of a rose shaped ice crystal.

The fluid in the cave floated towards her as she opened her mouth and swallowed it.

'Disgusting!' Vincent thought. He then used a hand to cover his mouth. The sight almost made him vomit.

"Gepu!"

She gave a loud burp after she ate the goo. Her head then span to look at Vincent with her right eye sparkling. The crystal also shone with blue water mana flowing around it. She pointed forward as 5 goblins appeared from a side passage just like earlier.

"Careful, Vincent. This group is different, the big one is level 2." Violetta said. She wanted to warn him before the fight.

He used the identification spell he had gained for the first time. His eye filled with countless figures that changed to represent many values he did not know about.

Vincent looked towards Silvari and then at his own hands. He knew there were many things to learn. But his class was a summoner. 'Should I blindly improve only myself, or trust in these strange creatures that will support me?'

Violetta wondered if he was scared. She was just about to speak and offer advice to him. The moment she saw his eyes open filled with determination.

'Let me trust Silvari. She will be by my side until I die!'

Silvari's eyes shone as a blush appeared on her cheeks. A dark golden light filled her body like a spiral.

[Choice made]

[Two rewards gained.]

[Unlocked Anima and gained the ability to let your spirits return to their original form scaled down to your own level.]

[Your affinity with all summoned beings increased by 10 permanently.]

'What's Anima?' Vincent asked.

His eyes saw Silvari grow to over 200cm. She had countless ice crystals covering and growing from her body.

She was no longer a normal cute girl next door and became a bewitching blue skinned woman. Her body had a thin black cloth that barely covered her private area as it floated around her body.

[Anima is the beginning of mana. Higher beings and deities used it in the past.]

Now in the boy's eyes, he saw a counter hovering over Silvari.

[Anima: 100/100]

Her transformation finished now. She looked more like a monster girl than a spirit. The crystal rose on her right eye formed a large horn. Her shoulders had thick spikes of ice protruding from them with long transparent icicle fingernails. She turned her head towards Vincent, still having a small blush on her blue skin.

"My dear summoner, I too will trust you until I die."

She spun in a full circle before facing the goblins that were around 100 metres away, now dancing. Ice manifested around her body as her arms spread out before making gestures of prayer to the sky. Once again, she opened her mouth as a beautiful singing voice rang out. It was charming and infectious.

*****

—In a land before the great fall~

—A dream of snow and frost~

—The lone girl danced for the sun~

—She hoped to see the snow again~

The ground froze in the area surrounding the goblins. They tried to break free but could not as the ice continued to grow.

—She prayed and prayed~

—Her body of ice melted~

—O'Sun O'Sun return my snow~

Her voice ended. The language wasn't what Violetta or Vincent understood. They both saw a scene. A girl made of ice dancing in a blazing desert, hoping for her long-lost winter to return. In despair, she prayed for aeons as she continued to melt away.

*Crack*

"Hehe! Praise me Vince~!" Silvari said with a joyful face.

Silvari's magic had turned the goblins into ice statues. Her song ended as she shrank into her doll form. She sat against Vincent's neck before she fell asleep. The goblins cracked after losing the permafrost before bursting into glistening blue dust.

"Silvari is amazing… This is her power scaled to my level!"
