The False Summoner - Chapter 43
Chapter 43: The Opening Ceremony (1)
Different summoning beasts have different features and different means of attack as usual. What summoners should do is to know all about the abilities of every summoning beast and give appropriate instructions, so as to maximize these abilities.
Summoners not only command their summoning beasts to attack, but also let them make an appropriate defense. Because summoners are fragile, they must protect their own safety while attacking. Even though summoning beasts are highly intelligent, after all, they are beasts and won’t always protect summoners consciously.
However, before taking actual combat training, one should face another problem, that is, to find an appropriate opponent. According to the tradition of the Royal Knight College, students in magic department and summoning department usually find their opponents in warriors department.
Warriors department has the largest number of students, basically equivalent to that of magic and summoning department. In actual combat, warriors are the most troublesome opponents for summoners and enchanters in most cases, since they tend to bypass the summoning beasts and magics, attacking summoners and enchanters directly. The weak summoners and enchanters simply can’t withstand a direct attack from warriors. As a result, preventing themselves from the warriors’ attack is a top concern for summoners.
