Reincarnated With A System Of Different Genre

Chapter 55: Gacha Summon! New Saint...?

Volka looked reasonably satisfied after hearing Paul’s explanation as he observed the surrounding students whispering among themselves with varying degrees of interest and excitement.

However, his expression twitched slightly after overhearing a particular comment.

"Can we get dragons?"

The moment those words entered his ears, Volka immediately pointed toward the source. freewebnoveℓ.com

"You! Come here, we’ll start with you," he declared.

The student he had selected was Skyler.

The green-haired boy stepped forward with visible excitement, clearly thrilled about being chosen first.

Volka however wanted to say something entirely different.

"Your spirit affinity is probably one in a hundred, absolute trash!"

Unfortunately, as a temporary instructor representing the dignity of dragons, he swallowed those words through sheer willpower.

"First, place your hand on the Spirit Crystal," Volka instructed while producing a translucent orb roughly the size of a ball.

"The crystal measures compatibility with spirits, if you possess high affinity, it will shine brightly and we can proceed with spirit summoning afterward."

"But Instructor, I want a beast summon!" Skyler protested with visible enthusiasm.

"We will test beast compatibility afterward," Volka replied while barely restraining an evil smile.

He handed the crystal over to Skyler.

The moment Skyler grabbed it tightly, everyone waited expectantly.

One second passed, then ten, then an entire minute.

Nothing happened.

Even Skyler himself looked confused.

"The crystal did not react," Volka announced with fake seriousness.

"That means your affinity with spirits is nearly zero."

He found this strangely entertaining.

Unfortunately for him, Skyler seemed completely unaffected.

"Alright then! Let’s move directly to beast summoning!" Skyler declared with the same enthusiasm as before.

"Well... before that, you should understand something important," Volka began in a grave tone.

"The Summoning Goddess Palace is a very... no, a financial predator. A single Beast Summoning Crystal costs ten Great Golden Rwa coins, and there is still no guarantee of success."

Several students from commoner backgrounds nearly lost consciousness hearing that amount.

For an ordinary family of three, that was enough money to survive for years if used carefully.

Meanwhile, Skyler merely blinked.

"Only ten Great Golden Rwa coins? That’s fine then," he muttered casually as Volka’s eye twitched.

"...However, the school is providing you one for... free?" he added after a short pause, wondering why the school was wasting money, not that he minded, because it was not from his treasury.

But at those words, several gloomy faces within the crowd brightened instantly.

"Now then, crush the crystal. Once your consciousness arrives there, offer a sincere prayer," Volka instructed while handing Skyler a thumb-sized crystal engraved with intricate beast patterns.

At the center of the crystal was the image of a woman whose face remained obscured beneath countless ornaments, revealing only two golden eyes and a weighing scale suspended between her hands.

Crack!

Skyler crushed the crystal immediately.

The instant he did, the divine power of Summoning Goddess enveloped him, and his consciousness blurred.

In the next moment, Skyler found himself standing within a cloudy white space before an enormous statue of the same mysterious goddess.

This time, however, instead of scales, two gigantic pillars extended outward from her hands.

One pillar displayed Skyler’s face.

The other remained empty.

"Oh great Goddess Oõleru!" Skyler shouted sincerely.

"If I receive a summon related to money, then when I grow up, I will definitely donate to your main palace!"

The empty pillar suddenly began glowing.

Different colors flashed across its surface as countless beast silhouettes appeared and vanished one after another.

Finally, a brilliant golden color stabilized.

For a brief moment, the silhouette resembled nothing more than a round shape.

Then the image became fully clear.

A Golden Slime.

"Holy moly! A Golden Slime!" Skyler screamed in absolute joy.

"This is a sign that I’m destined for great wealth! Goddess, you are my true light! I abandon the Golden God for you!" he said those words with such pure heart that anyone watching this would be moved.

And somewhere beyond the scene, an unseen spectator silently watched everything unfold.

The statue itself seemed to smile faintly before releasing a golden radiance upon him.

In reality, barely an instant had passed.

The fragments of the shattered Beast Summoning Crystal formed a glowing magic circle above Skyler’s head, and from within it, a small Golden Slime suddenly emerged before landing directly on top of his head.

"Hahahahaha!" Skyler laughed like a madman.

The surrounding students instantly erupted into chaos.

"Isn’t that a Golden Slime?!"

"How can he be this lucky?!"

"That should have been me!"

"I think I’ve seen this guy somewhere before..."

Even Volka himself looked stunned as he knew the rarity of Golden Slimes that even the Golden Dragons covert.

"A Golden Slime... are you serious?"

"Should I explain what it is?" Paul asked excitedly.

"That’s fine. I know this one," Caelum replied calmly, when he was home at the Annum County, he had read about various rare beasts, and Golden Slime was also among them. freewebnøvel.com

The Golden Slime is said to bring Luck, Prosperity and Wealth to its caretaker.

Loreal who was listening immediately narrowed her eyes.

"I find it suspicious that you somehow know this."

"Loreal, you shouldn’t say things like that out loud even if they’re true," Anastasia added softly.

"Haha! Your reputation is collapsing today!" Ryan joined while laughing loudly.

Caelum’s expression turned sour.

It was not his fault that his memory had become absurdly good after cultivation.

The only things he did not know, were the things he did not learn.

In fact, if knowledge talismans are utilized properly, he was fairly certain he could probably graduate from the school within a single day.

’Maybe those knowledge talismans are real cheat, could I create something like that myself in the future?’ he thought.

However, before he could continue thinking further, something unexpected happened.

Skyler, who had been laughing wildly, suddenly began emitting a brilliant golden light.

The radiance rapidly intensified before shooting upward into the sky like a pillar.

The phenomenon instantly drew the attention of everyone present, Teachers and students alike.

The Black Dragon Volka stared at that light in disbelief.

"...What the hell! A Saint?"
