Shoujo Grand Summoning

Ansullivan Dragonar Academy, sports arena...

Rebecca declared the victor with that charming smile of hers.

"The winner of this year's Aries Dragon Riding Festival, Rowan Randall from the first years!"

"Yeahh!!!"

The students were cheering for him. Naturally, some of them are also jealous that he gets to go on a date with Rebecca.

The ladies and gentlemen who would like a date with Rebecca wished they were Wu Yan right now.

The students sounded lethargic and a bit sore. Wu Yan felt like bitterly laughing.

"Ugh..."

Wu Yan sighed once more.

How many times has he been in a situation like this?

Honestly, he lost count. Might as well bask in the salty gazes.

Wu Yan donned an evil grin as he looked at a certain princess. Silvia clenched her fists in frustration.

"You sly, cheating, shameless jerk..."

Silvia grumbled, like an outraged lady, she sulked while holding Lancelot's leash.

"You used such underhanded tactics, don't think I will resign myself to this..."

Gwuuu

Lancelot whimpered while giving others the puppy eyes.

In the dragon's defense, Wu Yan's enticing offer only slowed it down a few seconds.

Then, the noble dragon cast away its greed and focused on the race.

But, it was up against Cú Chulainn, the strongest Maestro. Lancelot never stood a chance.

Silvia assumed she lost because Lancelot lost to Wu Yan's despicable bribe of food.

This is why Silvia continued growling at Wu Yan despite being a princess.

Wu Yan didn't shy away. He met her leer with a smug grin. He made sure Silvia can see his expression clearly much to her vexation. He moved his lips just enough for Silvia to see him.

'Don't forget our promise now...'

Silvia almost blew her top. She closed her eyes and looked the other way. This was to preserve her mental integrity.

"Oh, are you angry?"

Wu Yan sighed.

"What a kid."

"You're probably the only one with enough guts to do this to the Fourth Princess of Lautremont Knightdom..."

Rebecca also rolled her eyes.

"Let it not slip your mind that Silvia can make your life very difficult if she wants to."

"Oh, I don't know about that. I am only thinking about what I want."

Wu Yan rubbed his chin.

"I already know what I want but it feels like a waste to use my favor on that matter. Perhaps I should get her to help me with some other stuff?"

"Really?"

Rebecca winked at him.

"She isn't the only prize you got out of this race, you know..."

Wu Yan recalled that he gets to go on a date with Rebecca.

Wu Yan's lip started twitching.

"What?"

Rebecca ignored the crowd as she whispered into Wu Yan's ears.

"You don't look happy that you can date me?"

"No, I just got a headache."

Wu Yan stopped his heart from throbbing out of control. He coughed while turning his face the other way.

"I am not familiar with Ansullivan's layout. I don't even know where to bring you if we go on a date."

"Don't worry about that..."

Rebecca gave him a very foxy smile.

"I like taking the lead, let me show you around the town..."

Taking the lead?

On what?!

Wu Yan immediately thought about nasty things.

Then...

"Rebecca!"

A teacher came running while wheezing.

"One of the riders isn't back yet!"

"One of them didn't come back?"

Wu Yan, Rebecca, and Silvia stopped.

"What do you mean?"

"The race ended an hour ago but one rider isn't back yet!"

The lecturer reported.

"One of the guards found a riderless Asia in the forest. The rider anywhere near the Asia. That rider is probably in trouble!"

Rebecca immediately mobilized a response team.

"Form a group and go search the forest."

"Okay!"

The lecturer listened to Rebecca as if their roles were reversed.

"I am going too!"

Rebecca asked the lecturer.

"Who is that rider?"

"Ash Blake, the rider who borrowed his friend's Pal to participate."

"It's him?!"

Rebecca and Silvia gasped.

"Ash?"

Wu Yan's expression turned dark.

Ash is a friend of his friend. Aside from Silvia and Raymond, he is the next closest thing to a friend.

Wu Yan is also intrigued by something on Ash.

He preferred to see him alive and well.

"Rebecca!"

Wu Yan offered himself too.

"Let me join!"

"Okay..."

Rebecca agreed after a brief moment of hesitation.

"We will both survey the forest on top of Cú Chulainn."

"I will go too!"

Silvia offered her help.

"It is the royal's duty to help the subjects. Please, President Rebecca, allow me to help!"

"Fine."

Rebecca couldn't turn down the serious Silvia.

"Princess, we will search in two different directions, you will search on top of Lancelot."

Silvia nodded.

In the skies above Fianna forest...

Wu Yan and Rebecca stabilized themselves on top of Cú Chulainn with assisted magic.

Silvia is currently searching the forest with Lancelot. Wu Yan and Rebecca were in charge of this area. They searched the forest along with the rescue team.

"How is it?"

Rebecca asked.

"Did you find anything?"

"No."

Wu Yan shook his head, he tried to not mind Rebecca's soft body and her fragrance.

"I didn't detect anything."

"This is problematic..."

Rebecca frowned.

"I hope Ash Blake is fine."

"I don't know."

Wu Yan bitterly laughed.

"In any case, we are going to find him, dead or alive."

"True."

Rebecca laughed.

"Cú Chulainn!"

Wu Yan interjected.

"You detected something?"

Gwoooar

Wu Yan assumed the dragon had some idea and it did. Cú Chulainn dove down as it flew in a certain direction.

Rebecca gasped.

"Cú Chulainn found something!"

Wu Yan said nothing. He looked ahead with gleaming eyes.

He felt a special power growing in intensity in that direction.
