- Chapter 41 - What Kind Of Newbie Are You?! They Said That “Summoner” Is A Terrible Job, Yet They Call Her The Last Boss Chapter 41
Saturday, the day after Johann and her friends purchased their guild home. Other players have purchased guild homes that match the feel and size of their guilds.
There are meeting rooms and communal safes. And while checking the newly added functions such as private rooms for each member, every player noticed:
They need summoned beasts.
Currently, Summoners are an endangered species, and few players have summoning stones. The summoning stones available at the NPC shop is only for the starter set.
Then buy your favorite summons on the trade bulletin board! The players who looked at the bulletin board saw the following message.

“Dyufu… 3 Dark Elf-chans and 3 Maidragon-chans.” 1
“With pleasure, y’all~. That’ll be 6 million gold,” Kon said.
Noon on Sunday. The summoning stones sell like hotcakes. They were able to recover the total 1.9 billion gold of capital spent by Johann and Kon just from this morning’s sales. In other words, every sale from the afternoon will be pure profit.
“This is selling like hotcakes, isn’t it?” Zecca said, her mouth open in surprise.
“If you have a guild home, you can enjoy summoned beasts even if you are not a summoner,” Johann said.
“It’s great it’s sellin’ like this, ya’ll,” Kon said.
Strong advanced monsters sell quite well, but even more than that, cute girl-type monsters sell tremendously better.
For example, dark elves and maidragons don’t have much in the way of Skills, but their visuals are cute. These summoned beasts are selling like wildfire, and the inventory is already running out (of course, Johann and Kon have kept a separate supply for their use).
“Of course, y’all can’t do naughty things with ‘em, but if you make ‘em do somethin’ else, their chests’ll shake,” Kon said.
“Chests… their chests?” Zecca said, making an odd expression.
“”
And at that moment:
“Long time no see, Zecca.”
Before Johann and the others, a girl clad in dazzling golden armor was standing.
The girl had pink hair and winsome eyes, her player name is Guiltia. She is the guild master of the current strongest guild “Swords of the Farthest Reach”. And behind her stands the current top-ranking player, Roland.
“My, my, my, wha’s the two top players of the game’s most powerful guild doin’ here?” Kon said.
Guiltia ignored Kon and glared at Zecca for a while, but now that she was done with her, she gets down to business.
“I came to buy summoned beasts,” Guiltia said.
“Y’all got it,” Kon said.
“100 Royal Guards. And 3 copies of Heavenly Emperor Zelnesia. How much will it cost?” Guiltia asked.
Royal Guards are intermediate summoned beasts. In terms of ability, it’s like a Scapegoat without Multiply. It’s not like it’s that powerful. However, it looks like a knight wearing silver armor, and it may be the best fit for the theme of the Swords of the Farthest Reach, who are rumored to have made the white castle their guild home.
And Heavenly Emperor Zelnesia. A summoned beast that is difficult to obtain even among advanced-level summoned beasts. You could say they are the Heads of the Royal Guard and can summon and strengthen multiple Royal Guards with their skills. It’s a Summoner-like summoned beast.
“400 million gold in total, y’all,” Kon said.
“”
“Oh, that’s surprisingly cheap…” Guiltia said.
“Yeah. I thought we’d have to fork over even more than that,” Roland said.
They begin preparing their gold as they found the price cheaper than expected. However, at that time, Kon seems to have received a message from someone. She deliberately raised her voice.
“What’s wrong Kon-chan?” Johann said.
“Ah, wait a minute,” Kon said. “Ahh… that’s a real pity~.”
“What’s a pity?” Guiltia said, staring at Kon suspiciously.
“Oh, y’all see, the summoning stones that y’all say you want ain’t for sale no more,” Kon said.
“Huh? What do you mean? We can pay you the 400 million,” Guiltia said.
“Real sorry, y’all, but I just got a call from another customer right now, yeah? I received an order for 100 Royal Guards and 3 copies o’ Emperor Zelnesia.”
“Huh!? Exactly the same order!? That is so fake!” Guiltia yelled.
“I’m sorry, y’all, but this is a prior reservation,” Kon said. “Can I ask y’all to decline?”
Guiltia and Roland close in on Kon.
“But y’all know what? The other side said they’ll pay twice the offer, 800 million, y’all see?”
“…”
“…”
The two are at a loss for words. They’re deeply offended by the blatant rip-off. In the first place, even 400 million is quite expensive. However, Guiltia and Roland looked at each other even though they were dismayed.
“I’ll ask just in case, but you have any spare stock…?” Guiltia asked.
“Oh, no, y’all,” Kon said. “No spare stock here, mhmm. Ah, tha’sa pity.
“… Scum. I get it,” Guiltia said. “I’ll give you 1 billion. You can’t complain about this, right? Sell it to us.”
“Wait a minute… ah, they said they would give 2 billion yen. I’m in trouble, y’all.”
“Screw you, you conniving fox lady!” Guiltia cried, going berserk.
Little wonder she did. Guiltia is about to lunge at Kon at any moment, Roland held her back.
“Oh my, oh my,” Kon said. “The most powerful guild master shouldn’t get violent with a weaker guild, y’all. I’m going to record all this fuss, yeah?” Kon said.
“BIIIITTTTTTCHHHHHH!” Guiltia yelled.
“Kon-san… you’re provoking her a bit too much,” Zecca said. “If you don’t want to sell, just say no.”
She probably realized there was trouble and stepped in to stop her.
“I’m willin’ to sell, y’all,” Kon said. “It’s just that we want to do business with people that’ll be happy to pay us a lot o’ money. That’s all, ya’ll.’
Kon laughs viciously. And then, Roland, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth.
“The amount we originally prepared was 1.5 billion,” Roland said. “Would you be willing to give it to us for that? I know it’s forward of me, but we, the Swords of the Farthest Reach, are currently the strongest guild in GOO.”
“Well, I know that, y’all,” Kon said.
“If you can hand it over to us, I promise to form an alliance with you, Dragon Hina, at next month’s guild competition event,” Roland said.
“He-Hey, Onii-chan?!” Guiltia said, shocked.
And Johann and Zecca who didn’t know that the guild competition event will be held next month are also surprised.
“Onii-chan… I will never buy from these people,” Guiltia said.
“I feel the same,” Roland said. “But now that you’ve made your promise to buy the summons and I’ve promised to back them, we will have no choice but to go along.”
“Uu… I know… we can’t disgrace ourselves,” Guiltia muttered.
“How is it, Kon-san? I don’t think it’s a bad deal,” Roland said, looking right at Kon.
Kon, on the other hand, didn’t meet Roland’s eyes, and spoke while manipulating her menu. “I just consulted with my other customer over yonder…”
Everyone here understands that there is no other customer, but it was tough to have Kon stop playing around.
“Roland-han, can we settle this with a duel?” Kon said.
“A duel… with me?” Roland asked.
“That’s right, Rolan-han,” Kon said. “It was y’all who approached us first. But, they’re willing to pay more, ya’ll. If we’ve already negotiated so far, we’ll all have no choice but to duel it out.”
“It’s okay, let’s do it. I’ll crush you, you sneaky fox,” Roland said.
“Alright then,” Kon said. “A 2v2 tag match. If y’all win, I’ll sell you the summonin’ stones for 1 billion. But if I win, I’ll sell you the summonin’ stone for 2 billion, and I’ll ask you to form an alliance with us. Sounds fun, yeah?”
Next time. Zecca and Kon will pair up and challenge the game’s strongest.
