Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

A few minutes earlier…

As soon as Christensen placed his hand on the head of the Snow Fenrir, he felt a resistance unlike anything that he had experienced before.

Despite its soul power already being suppressed to the Grade E realm, this was still a mythical beast that had lived over a millennium, it would never be easy to tame and eventually contract such an old monster beast.

The resistance was fierce but Christensen held on, having prepared himself for 3 days already, he was not about to give up due to some resistance.

In the real world, it felt like less than a second but in his mind, it felt like minutes. Seeing his tenacity, the Snow Fenrir took a different measure.

The Snow Fenrir pulled Christensen into the orange contract world of Grade D Summoners where the real submission process takes place.

Originally, after the first contracting process, the chances of a Summoner being dragged into the contract world was slim but not with the Snow Fenrir.

Also, during Christensen's first contracting process to get Leo, his rich parents paid in gold for a potion to prevent him from being dragged into the white contract world. The potion worked and he easily contracted Leo.

This also contributed to why the Snow Fenrir easily dragged him in since he never had the experience of the contract world beforehand.

Bzzz!

As soon as Christensen arrived in this massive orange world, he was lost due to his inexperience as he saw only the Snow Fenrir as his opponent here.

The Snow Fenrir at this moment already transformed into its white form with wings again, and due to some reason, it seemed as big as the world.

He looked like an ant before the Snow Fenrir at this moment.

Christensen panicked. "What is this?"

"Master never told me about this".

"DIE HUMAN!" The Snow Fenrir roared the next moment and attacked.

Boom!

Christensen stood no chance, he was flattened to death from one stomp of the Snow Fenrir. He literally experienced the traumatizing feeling of dying.

A second later though, he spawned again in this orange world.

Feeling his instinct direct him, he looked down at his hand to see a line erasing. At this moment, 9 lines were remaining in his right hand and attributing it with the fact that he just died, he made the calculations.

"These are my lives?"

"DIE!"

BOOM!

Christensen could not resist, he was stomped to death again.

On respawning, he was frustrated. "How do I resist? How do I fight?"

The Snow Fenrir did not respond as he just kept on yelling die while stomping Christensen to death. After 4 deaths, the realization that he was about to fail his master and his younger brother despite their efforts settled in.

His eyes widened in denial and fervent aggression.

"I can't lose!"

"Not after getting this far…, I must get you!"

"YOU MUST SUBMIT!"

"YOU MUST SUBMIT BEFORE ME!!!"

Christensen abandoned his fear as he charged at the gigantic Snow Fenrir, he tried to attack with his fists but he was flattened again.

His charge was not useless though, the first step to victory was leaving his fear. Once he did this, Christensen finally understood the rules of this world, just like the Snow Fenrir, he could also manipulate this world and use its powers.

"Hahaha…" Christensen laughed like a maniac.

"It's not my time to die yet".

"Not until I overtake master".

Bzzz!

The next moment, he took control of this power as he turned himself into a giant that was as big as the Snow Fenrir.

Then, a clash of titans started for real.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Christensen dead…

Bam!

Snow Fenrir dead…

Bam!

Snow Fenrir dead…

The rules of this orange world relied on creativity. Your power depends on how creative you can become with the powers of the orange world.

As he understood it more, Christensen gradually grew stronger.

After killing the Snow Fenrir 8 times, it seemed that the veil covering the beast finally started opening to him. He was now able to peer deep into the soul of this opponent that fought him in the orange world.

Christensen laughed. "So you have a name…, Frigga".

"ROAR!!!" The Snow Fenrir stayed angry.

"Don't worry, when you become mine, you'll be in safe hands".

Consequently, Christensen started dominating the Snow Fenrir. In the end, a Grade E soul power could not contend with that of the Grade D realm.

At the Snow Fenrir's 10th death, Christensen saw everything, Frigga's life, Frigga's hardships, Frigga's adventures, his abilities, his power, everything.

Due to this being his first beast entering the contract world with, without even finalizing it yet, Christensen already developed a greater connection with it after getting access to the full story of its life.

This was when Frigga's eyes finally closed.

Though in the real world this only lasted less than a second, to Christensen, this grueling experience lasted hours which caused his exhaustion.

…

As soon as the Frost Giants escaped, the countdown became more ominous. Legolas was already at his wits end as both Redmane and the Snow Fenrir seemed to not be able to open a teleportation portal.

He also tried opening the rainbow bridge that led to the beast plane but the airspace was already too fractured, he could not open it.

The countdown waited for no man, it kept on counting, adding on to the pressure as Legolas slowly became desperate.

>Countdown to Ice Plane's Destruction: 5 Minutes<

Legolas felt like laughing. "What an irony…"

"After all the legendary feats today, is this how we are going to end?"

This was when the Snow Fenrir spoke again. "There is only one way…"

Christensen struggled to stand upright as he looked at the Snow Fenrir. "Do you mean your bloodline ability that tore the Ice Elemental plane from the other 3 Elemental planes?"

The Snow Fenrir nodded.

Christensen's face turned sour. "But…"

Legolas grabbed his student on the shoulder as he glared into his eyes. "Tell me what the penalty of the bloodline ability is!"

"Frigga would degrade by a full realm and have to start recovering again".

Legolas kept his gaze on Christensen's eyes. "One last lesson for you, no matter how strong you become and how valuable your power becomes to you, when you face a choice of your life or your power, always choose your life".

"Only the living can get power".

"Only the living can get riches".

"Only the living can get mythical contracted beasts".

"Only the living has emotions".

"Only the living can recover from an injury".

Legolas bumped his student on the shoulder one last time and turned around. "The choice is up to you; all our lives are in your hands".

"Make the right choice…"

After turning around, Legolas looked at the expansive world of snow that spread as far as his eyes could see. The white snow no longer seemed as white, a large part of it was already red from all the blood that flowed for 3 days.

The strong smell of blood diffused the air like an air freshener, batting at the senses of the survivors to remind them of the slaughter that took place here.

All over the Ice Elemental plane, very few beasts were still survivors.

And even the continuous survival of these survivors was not guaranteed.

Legolas sighed, closed his eyes and took a deep breath of the air, he didn't regret his actions. "Despite all the odds that were against me, despite going against such monsters, my plan worked, that is the essence of a Summoner".

He was proud of his actions and what he achieved.

He checked his time again.

>Countdown to Ice Plane's Destruction: 2 Minutes<

"Do it!"

Christensen finally gave the order.

Frigga stood tall the next moment as his black fur gleamed under the icy breeze of this Elemental plane, he focused and started reciting an incantation in an Ancient language that stirred the powers of his bloodline.

This was the incantation that he recited to cut off the Ice Elemental plane from the other Elemental planes, and it was the same incantation that he now intended to use to restore this Elemental plane to the others.

For a full minute, he kept on reciting.

>Countdown to Ice Plane's Destruction: 54 Seconds<

Frigga kept on reciting.

>Countdown to Ice Plane's Destruction: 23 Seconds<

At the last 8 seconds, the incantation was finally finished.

Bzzz!

Instantly, Frigga felt a whole lot of power leave his body and seep into this world as from the very essence of this world, a remodeling started.

Bzzz!

The space cracked open, exposing a massive blackhole that sucked the Ice Elemental plane in the next moment.

They all disappeared.
