A Girl Who Was Told “You Have No Talent” Turned Out To Be A Talented Monster - CH 52.1
Litty and Summoner Battle
It had been a few days since the successful summoning by Litty and Kuufa.
The duel with the branch manager’s faction would take place in the dueling arena located in the Summoner’s Guild.
It was built sturdily for having Summoned Beasts fight each other. The ceiling was vaulted, and its size was unimaginable from the outside.
“There are quite many spectators, aren’t there?”
“We invited trainees and adventurers from neighboring countries. Isn’t that what you want as well? Catalana-sama.”
The branch manager provoked Catalana with a sly smile. Catalana was more concerned about the number of people on the branch manager’s side.
“You’re so bad, you’ve only got one ally on your side.”
“Oh my! I, Mc Creed, am enough to be on the branch manager’s side!”
This popularity was quite painful.
The instructors who helped them with the summoning technique the other day were on Catalana’s side. Not long ago, they would have at least pretended to be on the branch manager’s side. However, the bond between Catalana and the instructors was strengthened by their joint work to help Kuufa and Litty’s summoning ritual.
Everyone was elated at Kuufa’s successful summoning and despondent at Litty’s Summoned Beast. Kuufa and Litty had several days of training. And they both improved spectacularly.
As it turned out, Catalana’s predictions were right: they all agreed that Kuufa’s talent was the real deal.
“Lady Catalana, there are some adventurers here. If you were to lose, it would mean the downfall of the headquarters, wouldn’t it?”
“Some of the adventurers are expecting that, right?”
“You know very well how popular you are. Kukukuku”
“This is a good opportunity. If she learns her lesson with this, we’ll get someone else from headquarters to come over.”
All those who had been rejected by Catalana or who were not even allowed to take the exam were gathered here.
Catalana’s popularity was less than that of the branch manager in this audience. Furthermore, all the trainees here were, of course, aspiring Summoners from neighboring countries.
Some were still undecided about Summoned Beast, and some were here purely to learn about Summoning. In other words, to them, both the Branch Manager’s side and Catalana’s side could be said to be the face of the Summoners in this country.
However, there was one person they couldn’t take their eyes off.
“Myan!”
“Good, good.”
Litty, a strange participant, was stroking the head and chin of a mysterious creature that wrapped itself around her waist, and the creature seemed left to do it pleased.
Expectation and disappointment swirled within the crowd that was watching her, knowing that she was one of Catalana’s prized adventurers, but her summon was simply a strange creature.
“Hmm, your name is Litty, right? I’ve been looking into you. You’ve done a tremendous job as an adventurer so far, even though you’ve only been an adventurer for a short time.”
“I’m glad to hear your praise!”
“However, that Phantom Beast is not good. Myan is too weak to be of any use.”
“That’s not true. This girl (Myan) is wonderful.”
“Mya~n!”
Litty responded honestly to the branch manager’s criticisms. Catalana’s side could not help but nod in agreement with the branch manager.
To be fair, Catalana also had doubts. She wondered about the contract, whether there was a penalty for breach of contract, and above all, how Litty and Myan were communicating with each other.
As a high-ranking adventurer, she knew more than enough about summoning, but she didn’t know what to expect.
