Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts - Chapter 1650: Help
In the end, Ternius brought him directly to the emperor.
“So…” The emperor was speechless. Nathan intended never to return to this place in the past, so he was rather skeptical to find him here. “Are you going to join the dynasty since you came back here?”
“No. I come here to request your help.” Nathan shook his head calmly.
“My help?” The emperor frowned. “Whenever you asked for help, it would be transactional, and the problem wasn’t exactly small. So, I’d like to hear the problem first.”
“I thought you were going to reject me right away.” Nathan smiled.
“Well…” The emperor looked at Nathan. “You have changed. That pair of eyes… I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but you must have encountered something great.
“Still, you come to me for help, so I guess it’s worth listening to. It’s not like your compensation is small.”
Nathan smiled. “Thanks.”
“Really… Why would you come to this continent again? This time, you even bring another woman with you.” Ternius frowned.
Nathan took a deep breath before saying, “I will be honest. This world is going to end soon.”
“!!!” Both the emperor and Ternius widened their eyes in shock.
“You’re kidding, right? This old man has a poor heart, so please spare me.” Ternius sighed.
The emperor, on the other hand, turned grim. “What kind of ending do we have? I don’t think you should come here because that ending is unavoidable.”
Nathan nodded with a serious expression. “Right now, it’s just an assumption, but from everything I’ve found, an army of a thousand elite class aliens will be coming.”
“A thousand elite class aliens?” Ternius gasped. “Even a crystal fusion stage summoner can only handle two or three if they don’t have to worry about other aliens, but this army is going to come with so many lower-level aliens, right?”
“Yes.” Nathan confirmed it. His dream was telling him the same thing. At that time, there was simply no way to confront it.
The emperor bit his lip. “Even if we mobilize every single person in our dynasty, we can probably destroy half of them, but the dynasty will cease to exist.”
“That’s probably the situation.”
“Wait. If they’re going to appear, aren’t they going to appear only on your continent? Are you going to ask us to fight for you? Even if we agree to help you, how are we meant to transport all those fighters to your continent?”
Nathan raised his hand, asking him to stop. He had prepared the explanations. “I’m sure you are aware there are four continents in this world, right?”
“Yeah.”
“When the ash cloud starts covering the world, the number of aliens begins to increase. We’re assuming that’s because the continent south of Erendtall has been obliterated by the blast and all other impacts.
“All this time, the aliens have been fighting on four fronts, so when one continent collapses, all the aliens there will be directed to the other three continents, resulting in the influx of aliens.
“Meanwhile, our continent will probably be able to withstand this invasion in one way or another, but the losses will be significant enough that we will be close to being destroyed. At that time, the aliens will also send their army to this place.
“At that time, I don’t know if the dynasty and the empire can withstand the invasion even if you guys join hands.”
“Is that a threat?” Ternius frowned.
“No…” The emperor was the one who replied to Ternius. He precisely knew why Nathan had come to this place. “Still, you want us to help you, but how? Besides, I won’t have enough justification to help you. It’s true that you’ve been a great help in the eradication of the Godfather, but we can’t use it as a reason for this campaign.”
Nathan understood his position. Hence, he continued, “I’m not asking for a campaign, but I certainly need a lot of elites and an army. Right now, we’re planning to split them up into two. My continent will stop half of them, while my team will be stationed in this place.
“My entire team should probably be able to handle three hundred elite class aliens by ourselves. We can kill the rest as well, but we will need you to buy us that time.”
“Buying time from 200 elite class aliens and their army…” The emperor looked down, contemplating. “This plan… Are you going to involve the empire?”
“Yes. I just don’t know where I can find Her Highness Regina, so I hope you can help me with that matter.”
“It’s not that hard.” The emperor nodded. “I see. If we join hands with the empire, it may be possible. I will have to discuss it directly with the empire’s emperor this time.”
“That will be great. We won’t ask for too much time either. We know how hard it is going to be, but I’m afraid this is just the beginning.”
“The beginning? I feel like I need to ask that question, but I’m too scared to ask it.”
Nathan smiled helplessly. “If my information is correct, the alien that formed all the portals in this world five hundred years ago will descend to this world. At that time, the black cell hadn’t fully controlled him, so he only created a portal. But this time…”
“It would be to destroy this world…”
“Yeah.” Nathan nodded with a dark face. He was also troubled by Yog-Sothoth’s descent.
“I get the idea. How are we going to convince them and how are we going to cooperate?”
“The cooperation will be simple since you don’t have to send the army to my continent. We have a way to split them up. As for how to convince them, I have considered this, but first, we’d like to get 250 elite class cores from this continent.”
“Oi, oi. You’re asking us for help, but you’re going to rob all that?”
“To be fair, we’ll be the ones to kill most of the elite class aliens. There is also another reason, but I have prepared some compensation for this expedition.”
“All right. Tell me about it. I think I also need that other reason before I can agree to your proposal.”
Nathan smiled.
