Tomoyuki

Richard Huang, by bravely sacrificing himself, is given a new chance at life. In a world filled with technology so advanced that it is indistinguishable from magic, and overrun by monsters from another dimension. Following the footsteps of his adopted father, he enrolls in Jing Tian Magic Academy to become a summoner.

Wait, what? Summoning is not viable? The current meta is all about fast, aggressive burn spells or lockdown and control strategies? Getting defeated by swift combat techniques before I can summon my giant monsters?

...sucks to be me, I guess.

Warning: contains a lot of parodies of other stories (most noticeably Battle Frenzy) and fourth-wall breaking. If you hate Deadpool, you'll probably hate this story too.

Summoner Sovereign

Pushing up my glasses, I scanned the interior of the cave with nightvision, bu saw absolutely nothing. Even so, looks could be deceiving. Remember that Frost Serpent that snuck up on us a few minutes ago?

Yeah, I wasn't taking anything for granted.

Anastasia hung back, looking a little miffed that her poison techniques had no effect on the Frost Serpents. Even if she managed to penetrate their icy exterior – which was as hard as ice – with her poisoned dagger or short sword, the Frost Serpents appeared to entirely be made of ice. It was highly likely that her poisons would have little effect.

Even so, it wasn't as if Anastasia was completely helpless. Even without her poison techniques, she was a competent fighter, and earlier during the battle at the clearing when we were ambushed by the swarm, I had seen her cut apart Frost Serpents with her short sword, decapitating them or shattering them with brute force.
