Who to summon?

Yan Clan Residence, Clan Hall

The place was gloomy and quiet and even a drop of a pin can be heard.

People from left to right are standing, not saying anything but the mood feels so heavy.

"Patriarch, is it true? The Empress wants all high clans to attend the meeting?" A person from the shadow spoke up.

An old man with a white hair and long beard was sitting from a chair.

The old man may look weak, but if someone looks closely, he has a dangerous aura around him.

The patriarch only nodded his head and the people below him all gasp in shock.

A person from the shadow step up, gray hair and in mid 30's look at the patriarch and said: "So father, what should we do? Should we attend or not?"

"Of course we will attend. The Empress is not someone we can provoke as someone whose cultivation on par with a martial god, we must not incur her wrath." An old man dress like a scholar also step up from the shadow.

He look up at the patriarch and respectfully bow his head.

"Hmm? 3rd elder? You already finished your seclusion?" The patriach was somewhat a bit surprised when he saw the scholarly dressed old man.

"Yes."

"Hmm... That's good." The patriarch sounded a bit happy when he saw the old man.

He look at him deeply and gasp: "3rd elder... Y-You successfully breakthrough?"

The scholar old man nodded his head with a huge smile on his face: "Yes. I'm already a Martial Emperor 5th stage."

When the words from a old was said, the others were surprise as they cannot believe what they heard.

"Martial Emperor 5th stage? So fast!"

"It's only been a month since he went to seclusion, and his already at the 5th stage? Truly astounding."

"His only at 3rd stage before right? His already at the 5th in only a month? Even with cultivation pills, it cannot be that fast."

"Sigh, I wish I was an alchemist also, with pills, I can breakthrough stages with ease."

Surprised, shock, disappointment, different kinds of emotions are swelling inside as they were envious and awe at the same time.

"1st Elder, what do you think we should do? Should we celebrate?" the patriarch look at the person to his right.

1st Elder walk up with a smile towards the patriarch and said: "Of course this calls for a celebration, my brother has successfully breakthrough."

"Hahahaha your right, come come, everyone let us all celebrate!"With a huge smile on his face, the patriarch stood up and walk towards 3rd Elder, he patted his shoulder and said: "I'm so proud of you my son." 3rd Elder also smile and replied: "Thanks father."

As they were laughing happily, a loud bang came from the door as someone push the door with force.

"Who dares to... Eh? Little Flower?" The 3rd Elder suddenly snapped as someone dares to suddenly make a loud sound but when he saw the person, he instantly shut up.

Everyone also stop discussing about the celebration for the 3rd Elder's congratulatory breakthrough when they saw the person who dares to open the door so audaciously.

"Eh? Did something good happen?" The one called 'Little Flower'was Yan Yueji, who beautifully entered inside the clan hall.

"Ahh... I-It's Flower Yan. Umm..." Everyone look at each other nervously as they step back on impulse, making a path for her when they saw her walking towards the Patriarch.

Even the 1st Elder started to sweat profusely when she saw this so called 'Little Flower'.

Except for the Patriarch, when he saw Yan Yueji, he had a huge smile on his face, and even his old wrinkles are gone when he saw her.

"Grandpa!"

"Aww~ My little girl~!"

Yan Yueji then ran towards the patriarch when she saw him and gave him a tight hug.

"Ah, my little girl, easy, my body is old, not too tight." The patriarch patted Yan Yueji's back lightly as she slowly let go.

"Grandpa! I have good news for you hehe~" Looking at the patriarch with sly eyes, she was grinning from ear to ear.

When they heard the word good news from her, everyone was instantly shock as they thought of the same thing.

'G-Good News?! That's impossible?!'

"Eh? My little flower has good news? Come let grandpa hear this good news."

"Actually it's..." Yan Yueji slightly pull his grandpa's ear and whispered to him something.

The people in the hall was slightly curious as they tried to listen while looking at the patriarch.

As they looked closely, the patriarch face started to changed from happy, seriousness, surprised, shock, and finally to inconceivable expression.

When they saw the patriarch's face, they suddenly shivered as if like thousand of ants crawling in their whole body.

The 1st Elder and the 3rd elder suddenly had the same thoughts.

'Don't tell me...'

They suddenly gulped down their saliva from nervousness just by thinking about it.

Suddenly, the patriarch turned his body around without looking at them and said: "1st Elder, 3rd Elder, we need to discuss something."

'Ah shit here we go again.'

The 1st Elder and 3rd Elder walked towards the patriarch gloomily.

"Father what is it that you want to discuss with us." 1st elder spoke up, slightly nervous.

The patriarch suddenly whisper something to 1st elder that made him petrified.

3rd Elder thinks that something was wrong when he saw his brother standing, not moving an inch.

"Brother, what's..."

"No way!!!"

Before 3rd Elder could finish what he wants to say, 1st Elder suddenly shouted like a madman, even scaring the people inside the clan except for Yan Yueji.

"N-No t-this can't be happening, it's not true, I refuse to believe. No way, no way, no way."

1st Elder hold his head like he was in a nightmare, trying to wake up.

Looks like what they just heard from the patriarch was truly shocking.

Even the 3rd Elder can't believe what he just heard and stagger backwards with a terrified expressions.

The patriarch slowly turn around with a grave expression and look at the 1st and 3rd elder.

Seeing his face, the two look at each other before nodding their heads slowly, simultaneously.

Yan Yueji look at the patriarch with a plastered smiler on her dainty face and said: "Hehehe, Grandpa, remember what I said okay? Hehehe, I can't wait~"

She walk away while humming happily, leaving the people inside curious.

They all look at the patriarch and the 1st and 3rd elder and saw that the atmosphere between them, was somewhat gloomy and heavy.

"1st Elder and 3rd Elder, this is important, let's go and discuss about it for future possibilities."

The two nodded their heads and follow their patriarch to discuss some plans.

.......

Waking up the next day, Vaun was still checking his system's All-Around Shop, Summoning, Companion category, thinking about who to summon when he arrived at the battle world.

He wants to prepare all the necessities he needs before embarking on a long journey, that also counts towards his companions.

He already has someone in his mind. He should be able to learn the world laws, elements, and good at adapting to the environment, medical expertise that Vaun needed and also a great strategist.

There was only one person in his mind.

His ability is similar to that of the Law of Space, decisive, expert at medical expertise and also, clearly good at fighting.

Yes, the one in his mind right now is someone from the One Piece anime he used to watch.

Trafalgar D. Law

As one of the most important key person in One Piece, his devil fruit has a huge potential to make a person immortal if mastered to a degree.

If he summoned Law in this world, he might discover the secrets his Devil Fruit beholds and unlocks the key towards immortality.

Law is suited in this world because of his Devil Fruit domain.

His skill, Room which is similar to a space domain might be further enhanced if Law can learn the Law of Space.

Also, if Law can learn the Law of Space, he might learn the Law of Time to further enhanced his surgery skills when saving a dying person if he operates inside his Domain.

With this choice in his mind, Vaun was sure that choosing Trafalgar D. Law will be a good choice.

Focus on thinking, Vaun didn't know that Yan Yueji is already beside him, looking at his handsome face with a smile.

Slowly, she gets close to and slightly blew his ears: "Hey handsome~"

"What!!!"

Startled, Vaun jumps up while holding into his ears with a slight red on his face.

Seeing the figure, he sighed: "What the... I thought it was something else, it looks like its only you."

Hearing what Vaun said, Yan Yueji was pouting and said: "Hmph, getting surprised by this beautiful girl is already a heaven's gift and you do not appreciate it?"

"Heh, beautiful my ass."

"Did you say something?"

"EH nothing, I only said that its this guy lucky to appreciate his lady's gift." Smiling, Vaun patted his ears and look at Yan Yueji and said: "So it's today right?"

"Heh, you're excited?" Yan Yueji looked at Vaun with a smirked and said: "You sure you can win?"

Vaun didn't answer and just nodded his head.

I can win? Do you still need to ask?

Of course, I will! I need to!

For the rewards, for the new system function, for the people!

Knowing his answer, Yan Yueji nodded her head in satisfaction.

"Okay, let's go now."

Vaun stood up from the bed and followed Yan Yueji towards the Yan Clan's arena.
