Summoning again

Author thanks to Nazraf and Chris_Reyes_3054 for sending power stones. A new auxiliary page will be up showing all current summons and dragon-born. I will try to add pictures after the chapter post.

Shin used the Hero/General Gacha Ticket.

Ding!

"You have obtained Shin Wilford (the Wiseman's grandchild). Would big brother like to summon or assimilate his mana?"

"Assimilate his mana."

Time remaining: 1 hour.

Next was the Wife Summoning Ticket.

Ding!

"You have summoned Boa Hancock (One Piece).

• Possesses her Devil Fruit powers.

• Can communicate with serpents.

• Has dual bloodlines of Medusa and Aphrodite.

• Can summon Amazon Lily (if a Special Building Ticket is used)."**

"You have also summoned Lara (Original Character).

• IQ second only to Bulma.

• As ruthless as Emma Frost.

• Her mother was a Valkyrie, and her father was a High Human.

• Trained in business by day and combat by night.

• A spear user.

• Leads a 30-person team of engineers and salespeople capable of recreating anything if given a blueprint or knowledge, except for weapons."**

Shin's two new wives and their people stood outside the manor, taking in their surroundings.

"Heart, upgrade the territory and place the following structures: five intermediate Ice Magic Towers, five intermediate Fire Magic Towers, five intermediate Lightning Towers, and five intermediate Arrow Towers."

"Also," Shin added, "use one Special Building Ticket to summon Amazon Lily."

A bright light flashed as the territory expanded by 500 meters.

The new arrow and lightning defense towers lined the walls, while the magic towers were strategically placed throughout the territory.

Amazon Lily merged with the territory, transforming into an ocean with an island at its center.

The manor also expanded, now resembling a small castle. As well as all his starter buildings increased a level. The one that stood out the most was the level 2 temple

Shin turned to Boa and Lara.

"Welcome to my family. Boa, if you'd like, your two sisters can stay with us."

"Lara," he continued, "I have knowledge from my past world that I want to introduce to this one. I'll give it to you later."

"I'd also like both of you to join the upcoming territory meeting."

Boa and Lara nodded in agreement.

Lara, in particular, was eager to see what knowledge her husband intended to share.

"Shin," Boa Hancock asked curiously, "why do I feel stronger here than usual?"

Using his All-Seeing Eye, Shin examined her and smiled.

"It's likely because, like me, you have dual sealed bloodlines. Don't worry—I can help you unlock this power, just like I did for Shego, my generals, and two of my soldiers."

Boa's eyes narrowed.

"Other wives? Who are these others you speak of? I'm not the main wife?"

Shin quickly used the Harem Seal to contact Shego and Velzard.

"Come meet your new sisters."

"Heart," Shin asked, "I thought all summons were aware of their situation upon arrival?"

"They are, big brother," Heart replied. "But Boa is just being territorial. She wants to see if she's worthy of standing beside her beloved."

The four women met soon after.

Boa could immediately sense that both Shego and Velzard were strong. However, Velzard's power made her the most uneasy.

As they introduced themselves, Boa learned that Velzard was a natural-born dragon who had grown stronger with Shin's help, while Shego's bloodline resembled what Boa knew of Marco's Devil Fruit—but far more destructive.

Shego smirked and teased, "Our husband has already summoned three of the women he loved in his past life."

Shin scratched the back of his head, embarrassed.

"Lilith sent us your 'waifu list,' dear," Velzard said, grinning. "We were… honored after seeing how strong some of our future sisters will be."

The four women left Shin to finish his summoning while they helped their new sisters settle in and went shopping in the system store.

Shin proceeded to use the Mount Ticket, summoning a pack of 50 Lightning Wolves.

The last two tickets he used were for Weapons/Blueprints and Talents.

From the Weapon/Blueprint Gacha, he received the blueprint for a Silver-level Tracking Arrow.

But what truly shocked him was the result of the Talent Gacha.

A woman with red hair, an eyepatch, and a glowing red eye appeared.

Shin's eyes widened in disbelief.

"The God of the Forge… Hephaestus (DanMachi)."

After completing his summons, Shin used the Harem Seal to summon his generals, tacticians, and new advisors to the meeting hall.

He handed the three blueprints to Hephaestus and spoke calmly.

"The ores and special materials in the territory are at your discretion."

"All I ask is that you train new blacksmiths, guide the current ones, and make use of the resources we've gathered so far."

Hephaestus examined the blueprints and nodded.

"I accept—on the condition that I get access to rarer blueprints, more mines, and special materials."

"Deal."

"Would you like to join the territory meeting or head to the forge?" Shin asked.

Hephaestus thought for a moment.

"I'll head to the forge first and get everything in order. I'll attend the next meeting if that's alright, my lord."

"Of course. Thank you for your hard work. If possible, could you focus on crafting arrows, bows, and ballistae first?"

"Yes, my lord. I'll see to it."

Before leaving, Hephaestus hesitated.

"My lord…"

"Hmm?"

"If possible, could you bring my aunt Hestia here? She took care of me like I was her own daughter. My uncle can't leave his realm, but… I would love to see her again."

Shin fell silent for a moment before giving her a reassuring nod.

"I'll do my best. She may not be from the exact same universe, but I'll try."

Tears welled up in Hephaestus's eye.

"Thank you, my lord… Thank you."

Shin's thoughts raced.

"Hestia, huh? I'll find a way… no matter what."
