The Summoner's Rebirth: Awaken, Milady

Chapter 18: The Girl's Ability

Aria repeatedly blinked. This was the second time she was addressed by the title 'Savior-nim'.

What was she supposed to do? She met two hopeless parties right after her rebirth.

Regardless of the title, Aria now knew where the girl was located. It was faint, but her hearing was enhanced. She could tell where the direction it came from was.

Just as the walls were about to hit her, she slid into the path that Jin-kyung's voice resonated from.

It was the middle path.

Aria marched towards the opened path.

It was another square room. The room locked once more, trapping her inside a square space.

"Again??" Aria pressed her temples. This dungeon was troublesome.

Using her mana detection skills, she quickly found the four fragments once more and released a charged attack to destroy them.

The paths opened up once more. The same three paths. It was just like she reverted back in time.

The walls behind her als started moving, wanting to crush the room.

"So... another screaming session?" Aria furrowed her brows.

"JIN-KYUNG! KEEP ANSWERING ME WHENEVER I CALL YOU!!"

"YES, SAVIOR-NIM!" The girl's voice was shaky, but she exclaimed in a large volume, making it easy for Aria to know where she was.

Rushing into the correct path, she escaped the moving wall and

The process repeated around six times before Aria was able to hear her voice as clear as day.

Jin-kyung no longer needed to shout.

Aria was near the girl.

She no longer needed the girl to scream. Jin-kyung's last cry was enough for her to detect her exact location because of the close proximity.

However, one more shout rang.

"S-Savior-nim... SAVIOR-NIM!"

This time, it wasn't a shout that served as a notifier. It was more of a panicked shout.

'Did the monsters get to her already?' Aria sped up her tracks.

Granted, she had spent more than ten minutes moving through the new rooms and maintaining the communication with Jin-kyung. However, she hadn't seen any creature at all in her path.

It was only the repeating rooms, no other lifeforms were there.

Aria got ready to battle once more. [Halvargg] was drawn, held within her tight grip.

At this point, Jin-kyung's cry was audible. The bad kind of cry.

"Dianthe, rush ahead of me!" Aria knew that Dianthe could go faster than her. "Protect the girl!"

Dianthe agreed and raised her speed, reaching the end of the tunnel faster than Aria.

When she arrived at the new room, Jin-kyung was enveloped by Dianthe's own body.

The spirit protected her by sacrificing her elemental figure.

Dianthe's body was made out of water, but it still provided defense mechanisms.

However, she couldn't hold out for long. The defense she maintained started to die out.

Aria had to reach the girl in time. The goblin was persistent in hitting Jin-kyung, pushing its club further downwards to bypass Dianthe.

Dianthe couldn't feel pain, but she would take time to recover her figure.

"Dianthe!" Aria ran at her highest speed, wanting to defend in time.

Sliding on the ground, Aria paid no heed to her skin that was now scraping harshly against the ground. The injury caused blood to sprout from it.

Just in time.

She made it just in time.

The large goblin was parried by [Halvargg].

Dianthe's elemental figure was gone. She didn't die, but there was a penalty time before she could be summoned once again.

Normally, she would be able to fight against the goblin's strength. However, because of the disadvantageous position, Aria couldn't escape, else Jin-kyung would be hurt.

Aria's bottom touched the ground, while her upper body was only inches away. This caused Aria to not be able to utilize enough strength.

The goblin wasn't affected by the parry and directly swung another hit.

This time, Aria had to defend against the giant club.

Even though it was a goblin, it was miles stronger than the ones she slaughtered.

"Jin-kyung, get away!" Aria had to alternate to a better position. Jin-kyung, who was sprawled on the floor prevented her complete movement.

The goblin's blade was slowly inching closer.

She just needed one good opportunity to overturn the tables.

Aria pushed her heel against the ground for support and used the other foot to kick the goblin in the head.

With each second, Aria was getting closer to the ground, which would cause the goblin's club to hit her in a vital spot.

Compared to the large goblin's robust figure, her kick was nothing more than an itch.

She just needed time!

Battles happened over a short period of time. Every second mattered.

Prolonging the battle was essential.

'Dianthe.' Aria communicated with the spirit who finished securing Jin-kyung from danger.

The time Aria struggled for was enough for Dianthe to recover her damage and come back into the battle.

The spirit hurriedly came to the rescue, launching a water attack at the goblin.

It only deterred the monster for a slight moment, but it was enough for Aria to remove her defense and roll over to the side.

She stood up borrowed Dianthe's element to cast the most fundamental skill.

"Water Blade!" A free water slicer flew and hit the goblin on the head, slicing its eyes.

Because of the short distance, the skill dealt more damage.

Above its head, Aria was able to see that the one hit alone dealt more than 500 damage.

Aria regained her balance.

Her steps slightly faltered. She exerted too much strength, causing her entire body to feel shaky.

Aria grasped [Halvargg] tightly and let out a loud battle cry.

She rushed to the monster and stabbed the blade deep inside its head, slicing it off horizontally.

The head was cut up, revealing a muddy brownish brain with a tinge of pink.

With the clean slice, the goblin's life vanished.

[Level C Large Goblin <Mad> successfully murdered.]

[Experience points increased by 7570.]

[Level increased by 1.]

Letting out another tired sigh, Aria felt her body recover. Her light injuries and scratches disappeared.

Aria was used to the healing, but Jin-kyung, who was by her side widened her eyes.

She had some healing properties, so she planned to heal Aria to her utmost abilities. But even that wasn't needed.

Aria was completely healed. She struggled to think of such a balanced Hunter.

Powerful fighting abilities, defensive measures, healing properties, agility, refined swordsmanship, and even a Spirit to aid her.

"Savior-nim can regenerate your health?" Jin-kyung asked out of curiosity, then soon covered her mouth in hurry.

She was in no place to ask. She had been saved multiple times, and she had been nothing but trouble to the woman.

Aria sat in fatigue, shaking her head to focus.

"It's... part of my Main. Anyway, my name is Aria. Aria Schreiner. Just call me Aria," Aria took the chance to introduce herself.

"Aria.. Schreiner? Savior-nim is a foreigner?" Jin-kyung repeated her name slowly, feeling unnatural.

"My parents are foreign but I've lived in Korea for as long as I remember," Aria continued, covering up the problem of her perfect speech.

"But Savior-nim is Savior-nim! Can I not call you Savior-nim?" Calling her Aria was disrespectful in comparison to her deeds. Jin-kyung was someone who upheld her respect highly, not wanting to wrong any of her benefactors.

"Up to you, I guess," Aria didn't have time to bother about unnecessary details. She slept on the ground, giving her body a complete rest.

Sighing multiple times, she wondered why she even entered this shitty dungeon. If only she ignored it, she wouldn't have struggled so much.

'Status.' Aria called.

'15 Status Points.'

Aria was conflicted on what path to choose. Every stat was desirable. She could choose to balance all the stats, but she had a foreboding feeling.

The dungeon wasn't finished. That was a Large Goblin, but not the boss.

The dungeon boss was still inside, waiting for her somewhere.

Mana was an important part of her battle. She allocated 3 points to Intelligence, rounding it up to 35 and making the mana bar rise to 410.

Attack. She allocated 2 points to Strength, believing that pure strength was essential.

Vitality and Dexterity were given 3 points each, while Agility was given 4 points.

That was her current distribution. Aria felt her body get stronger.

'Will this be enough?' Aria wasn't sure.

As she was thinking and resting, Jin-kyung looked left and right in anxiousness.

"...Savior-nim, please stay cautious. The sub stage hasn't ended," Jin-kyung suddenly stilled in her position, her expression turning awry.

'She knows when the sub stage ends?' Aria herself didn't know how to do that.

However, she followed the girl's instructions and cleaned [Halvargg] from the goblin's blood.

'O' future me, please don't jump into dungeons carelessly anymore.'

Aria expected a big reward ahead of her for all these troubles. If not, she'd definitely rage.

The 'Level 19' part attracted her interest. Last time, the moment she reached Level 10, she opened up this new 'Stage 2'.

Then, would she reach Stage 3 once she got to Level 20?

She definitely wanted to try it out.

"Where do you think the enemies are?" Aria asked.

By now, she had realized that although Jin-kyung didn't have offensive capabilities, she had a different set of special ablities.

Her seals, in particular, were formidable.

It wouldn't be a surprise if she had an ability that allowed her to record dungeon tracks.

"...South from this room, that way," Jin-kyung pointed to the patch of ground not far from them.

There was nothing on the ground, but Aria narrowed her eyes and told Dianthe to activate her elemental eye.

Sure enough, there was an Earthen fragment in the place Jin-kyung pointed at.

"South? So.. another floor?"

Jin-kyung mumbled, closing her eyes. She murmured a few words before continuing her revelation.

"Yes, the floor below this. There should be another Large Goblin... And after that, the boss... Ah!" Jin-kyung made a surprised sound, which then became panic.

Aria raised a brow.

After replaying Jin-kyung's words, she realized.

"Were you not supposed to reveal your ability?"

Jin-kyung awkwardly ruffled her hair, confirming Aria's theory.
