Chapter 6 New Summons



The Cù-sìth was close Tama could smell him. If Tama had to give the Cù-sìth anything it was its wits. It had consistently shook them off despite the injuries they had given him in their first encounter.

They had tracked him down to this cave where his smell had stopped. Stepping closer to the cave Tama suddenly stopped. All the hairs on Tama\'s back raising an indescribable fear washing over Tama

She had hunted her whole life yet the feeling this forest cave gave her was more dangerous than any prey she had ever hunted. She shivered just looking at it even invisible as she is she still felt watched

​ "Tama, wha...what should we do?" One of her subordinates whispered out her fur standing on edge.

"Mark the location, it should be of interest to the Lord" Tama said her voice unusually cold.

"We\'re leaving we\'ll find prey elsewhere."

...

After sending Tama and some of her subordinates to gather food to test some theories of mine I headed over to the summoning pool to conduct todays summoning.

[Summon]

Without any fanfare, what appeared to be 6 humanoids appeared.

The one that caught my eye the most was the one in the middle. She had straight long mint green hair flowing all the way to the ground, A petite frame that could not be taller than me and most contrasting of all she had this motherly aura that made stress just flow away.

However I was not affected, it seemed as though my mind just acknowledged her aura then brushed it off. Deciding to stop this train of thought I checked her status.

[Name: Melia]

[Species: Meliae]

[Tier/Level: 4/2]

[Born from the blood of a god, the Meliae are a subspecies of nymphs with no combat power. They however make up for this fact by their ability to grow ash trees which give birth to humans skilled in craftsmanship. It is said that the bronze age was started when a Meliae planted the first ash tree giving birth to a genius unparalleled in the art of craftmanship]

Just as I observed Melia so to did she observe me.

After a moment of observation wherein neither of us moved, Melia took careful strides towards me before...

"OH! you are just too cute!" She scoops me up and starts to hug me her cheek nuzzling against mine. "My name is Melia but you can just call me Mom, Mother, Mommy? Whatever you feel most comfortable with"

I look up to her giving her my most blank stare.

Seeing my blank stare Melia put me down before coughing into her hand.

"Ah, how presumptuous of me," she begins hiding her amused smile behind her hand. "You are my new king, seeing the lack of subjects I expect that you will have me populate your kingdom."

"Yes, If you could focus on increasing the population of my kingdom, It would do wonders to get ahead in this competition of mine." I reply

"Competition?" Melia asks

"Yes, us humans have been selected to compete for sovereignty of all realms and again your help will be much appreciated."

"Oh, you poor thing to be selected for something as bloody as this," Melia says before scooping me up into another hug.

...

Finally being able to shoo off Melia into planting some ash trees I head back to the fire pit to wait for Tama and the others to get back.

It was not too long after that that Tama appeared before me with a dead pig in her mouth.

She looked unusually tense too as if something had deeply disturbed her.

"My lord, we were unable to secure more prey than this pig." Tama reported.

"No need to be apologetic this should be enough even with our new editions" I replied dismissing her concerns.

"New editions? Never mind that I come bearing... news. I am not sure if it is good or bad" Tama hesitantly starts.

"News?" I ask

"Yes, while out hunting we encountered a cave, if it was just that it would have been of no concern but at the time we were hunting a Cù-sìth, a tier 6 creature known for its stealth, and this cave or whatever was residing within was able to kill him. It has me fearful whatever that was was enough to put me into a flight or fight response" Tama reported.

"I guess it is time then, should of done this sooner I guess." I tell Tama

[Species: Kitsune]

[Name: Tama]

[Tier/Level: 5/1(Can be evolved)]

[The Kitsune are characterized by the number of tails one possesses with 9 being the utmost. A new tail is only gained after sufficient growth in either power or age. Usually 100 years for every tail is the general rule. After having gained their ninth tail the Kitsunes fur will turn white or golden color and ascend the heavens. Kitsune are known for their illusions powerful enough to be indistinguishable from reality and their ability to transform into humanoids. Other notable abilities are their ability to take on a ghost like form, possession of others, invisibility, and their control over lightning and fire]
