Chapter 105: Summoning Part 2
Chapter 105: Summoning Part 2
"Master! That is a crazy thought! You won't be able to do that! You will exhaust your mana! This is suicide!" Inari shouted.
However, I did not listen to her attempts to stop me. I bit my thumb hard which made it bleed. If I am summoning a Deity like Inari-sama like this, I need a catalyst to invoke it. Although I already have a contract with Inari-sama and can just call her whenever I like with Yuri and Yuto, it is kind of unstable and can even backfire if I forcefully summon her with my mediocre amount of mana left in my body.
But this method is something that was added in my head after obtaining the Sprout of Ygdrassil. It is called the Catalyst summoning. If this was some sort of gacha game, you might do some weird rituals of the like just to get and pull an SSR unit that you want. The method I am using also works the same way.
When blood started to pour out of my wound, I immediately supply it with mana and whisk it in the air. Instead of the blood falling to the ground, they floated in the air. This is the result of infusing mana and blood at the same time.
"Kazuma? Is that what I think it was?" Maple was stunned.
"What is stepfather doing, sis?" Anya asked.
"That method of drawing a summoning circle using the blood is called the Catalyst Summoning. I heard it was a hasty but strong way to summon a monster class to deity class familiars. Unlike normal summoning where you make the summoning circle on the ground with materials, this summoning technique requires the blood and mana of the user and has to draw the circle in the air which means you need severe and intense focus to create the circle or else this will fail."

I heard everything what Maple explained and the explanation is correct. This was supposed to be difficult but after understanding the principle and way to use the summoning properly made me cheese my way on this one. This is just an easy way to finish stuff.
The circle was immediately made after a few controls of my blood. It was easy in my part instead of what Maple described to be hard. But I know what is the real hard part. The summoning part. Since I already have a contract on Inari-sama, I just needed to call her using the summoning circle without spouting chants with too many words that are only necessary if you want to summon someone else that is unknown to you.
"Inari Okami! Heed my call and appear before me, your master, Kazuma Fukuyama! I summon you and obey my command! Circle of Magic, Diety Tier! BREAK!"
Electric current appears on the magic circle as it spins too hard and red, orange, yellow and violet bolts simultaneously appeared. It was a strong shockwave in the surroundings that the wind blowing underground started to get stronger and stronger.
"What is going on?!" Maple has to stab her sword on the ground to hold her position. She also held Anya to avoid getting blown away.
The mana in my body started to decrease in a massive amount that I can easily tell that it was drying faster. However, every time the mana is consumed, another mana that seemed to be the one refilling my lost mana replaces on its place which later on gets consumed once again. My whole body is in serious chaos right now and I can imagine myself being the current of a torrent of water.
No wonder it was very hard to summon a deity or anyone on that position according to the other magicians because the feeling is enough to tear you apart without physically feeling it.
Before me, a figure started forming with a dense amount of magic power being drawn out. I gritted my teeth until it starts to bleed. I am having trouble maintaining myself just by controlling the summoning.
Inari's form starts to properly materialize after a few more seconds of holding. The electric current disappeared after the full materialization of Inari, allowing everything I did to be done. I almost collapse in fatigue when Yuto and Yuri caught me and prevented me from falling over.
"Master! That was totally reckless on your part! You can die if you didn't properly invoke the right way of the spell!" Inari said as she cast a healing spell on me.
"But I succeed right? It doesn't matter since I managed to do it," I chuckled.
"Stupid master, that was totally dangerous. You shouldn't have done that knowing that you are still on the mediocre levels of being a magician," Yuri pouted.
"Yuri is right Master, the way you did the summoning is pretty risky. If one wrong move was involved, you might have died!" Yuto agreed.
The fatigue that accumulated after summoning Inari disappeared after Inari cast a healing spell on my body and all of the injuries that have yet to heal are all now healed.
Maple on the other hand was too stunned seeing Inari who is currently wearing a red kimono. Her white long hair is fluttering in the air despite the lack of blowing wind around us to do that. Also, you can feel some sort of divinity going around on her that is being expelled from time to time.
"A deity familiar..." Maple stuttered.
Inari noticed Maple and Anya and she approached them.
"Maple and Anya right? The two of you are a great help to our master. On behalf of everyone so don't be too surprised and jealous at the same time, and besides, Maple-san, you already managed to summon a strong familiar. You don't need to be jealous of Kazuma since Kazuma is a special case. You are already someone who needs to be proud of her achievements at a young age."
Maple was stunned and blushed to hear that. "Ah, you are being so kind on your words Inari-sama but I am clearly not as talented as you have said."
"Anyways, we have to go now guys, I can feel the demons are now on the move. Let me help you all to fight against them. Time to show master what I am capable of."
