Yugioh Card Summoner

CH.97 Telling what happened

I was still sitting down, drinking with Lua, when Zay came to me and asked me to come to the guild master’s room. I almost wish I could have just had lunch before this, but what are you gonna do?

“Take a seat.” Both the ex-master and Zay were in the room.

I did as instructed and sat opposite to the ex-master. Lua had also come with me, just to make sure my story was correct. Zay was standing next to the ex-master.

“Now, would you tell me what exactly you did during the rescue operation?” The ex-master asked.

“What part of it? Or do you just want the abridged version?” I asked.

“Just the highlights will do. Then I’ll ask some questions.” He answered.

“Sure. We flew for a while, then I noticed lightning and headed towards it, we found the thunder sprites attacking Zay’s group, I had my summons take down the sprites, we landed and made contact with Zay, we healed people with magic and then headed home on the mechanical horse that you saw.” I told him.

“And that is all?” He asked.

“Basically yes.” I answered.

“What about the part where you resurrected someone?” He asked.

“I don’t recall something like that happening.” I said to him. Technically it wasn’t me. I didn’t activate the card, so it’s not my fault.

“I see. If that is how you want it, I’ll make sure the adventurer’s don’t speak. But you need to see to it that the baron doesn’t make a report about it.” The ex-master said.

“What about the Bakula company?” Lua asked.

“I can deal with them as well.” The ex-master said.

“Thank you.” I thanked the ex-master. “But now that we are talking about it. Zay, why did you not resurrect Rico?”

The ex-master turned to face Zay as well. I think he is looking at Zay with suspicion. 

“Zayaan? Want to comment on that?” He asked.

“... I did what I thought I should have done. By rank, he is higher than Rico, so I think he would be better for the guild.” Zay said. “In that moment I acted as the guild master Zayaan, not as the leader of Prime Rib Zay.”

“Good answer.” The ex-master commented. “Sometimes the guild master has to put their personal feelings aside.” After he said that, he turned back to me. “Now, care to explain how you can do it?”

“I didn’t do anything. You just heard from Zay. He did the revival.” I argued.

“Oh, I heard about it alright. You gave him something that let him resurrect a person. And I would very much like to know more about it.” The ex-master commented.

“Sorry. Not going to comment on that.” I told him. “Zay and Lua know about it and that is enough for now.”

“So I can’t ask you to resurrect the others?” He asked.

“I’ll ask you this. Do you think I wouldn’t have done it if I could?” I asked.

“I’m not sure. I don’t know you that well.” He answered.

“Fair point. But I can’t do it.” I told him.

“I see. Well, that is all for now. I thank you on behalf of the guild. I’ll leave the reward to Zayaan. He will hand it over to you later.” The ex-master said to me.

“So I can go?” I confirmed.

“Yes. You are free to go.” 

“Brian, are you ready to head home?” Christina asked me when I came back down the stairs.

“Were you waiting for me?” I asked her.

“Of course we were.” She said. “Is what I would like to say, but actually my husband and Henry were checked out by doctor Josh.”

“That makes sense. Better safe than sorry. So, were they alright?” I asked.

“Henry’s arm will take a few days to fully recover, but Brandon is just fine.” She responded.

I guess Henry’s arm was electrocuted decently well. I think some recovery time is to be expected, even after healing magic. Something like rehab. I think lightning can even destroy nerves and things like that. I hope he won’t sustain any permanent injuries.

(He most likely won’t. He got healed quickly after the incident.) Laura told me.

Well, that’s good. Actually, shouldn’t healing magic be able to heal things like that even after a while?

(No. If your body accepts that state as the ‘natural’ state using healing magic to heal it becomes much more difficult.) Laura specified.

So something like changing the default state. But shouldn’t the body's default state be complete? 

Christina had called a carriage for us, so we didn’t need to walk in the rain.

When we made it back to the manor, the servants had gathered to welcome their master home. I finally got an idea of how many servants lived in this house. I counted a total of seven maids. Nicole, Jenna, the maid that woke me up a couple of times, two other younger maids that were probably in their early 20s and two older maids that were likely in their mid 30s. There was also a man I assume is the chef. And gardener, or something like that. A total of nine servants. I guess with Henry it would be ten.

“Welcome home, Father.” Alice welcomed her father back with a fake looking smile. It felt forced compared to the ones I see on her face.

“I’m home. I hope you’ve been keeping up your studies while I was gone.” Brandon said.

“Of course I have.” Alice told her father. 

“That’s my girl.” Brandon said as he gave a little headpat to Alice. 

… is that normal for Brandon? Perhaps it is.

I spent the rest of the day telling Alice about how I saved everyone from the thunder sprites. She was a little disappointed that she didn’t get to see my white dragon fight. She also demanded I summon St. Joan so she can see her and I obliged. 

In the end, she said she wanted to become a magic swordswoman. I told her that it would be even more difficult than just using magic, but I’m not positive it got through to her. Then again, I don’t know what skills Alice has, so she might already have some swordsman skills. Perhaps she can become a Dark Paladin.

(Laura, make sure you wake me up as soon as my pack tokens come.)

(Of course, Master.)

This is what I decided to do. I don’t know the exact time that Rico died, but if I get a Monster Reborn with tomorrow's packs, there is still a chance. I’ll at least try to get another one.

With that, I went to sleep.
