My Summons Are Mythical Beasts

"You're here, Lucas."

Ethan smiled and greeted Lucas the moment he arrived at the spacious beast gymnasium.

Behind Ethan was a massive beast, twice the size of a sedan car, pulling another beast within a cage effortlessly.

Seeing it again the second time, Lucas could still not hide his awe toward this gargantuan beast owned by his senior, Ethan.

This beast was called the Bronzehead Oxen by Ethan.

Towering at twice the height of a sedan, this Bronze-Grade, Iron-Rank beast was a menace when it came to strength. Its massive, muscular frame, draped in coarse, brown fur, rippled with power at every step. Two horns curved crudely to the side of its face, appearing rough, yet looked quite tough and hard.

The ground seemed to tremble as its colossal hooves hit the earth, each step confident and measured.

Its two massive eyes swept over Lucas; even though Ethan had already said that his beast was a gentle creature by nature, Lucas still could not help but feel nervous upon being stared at by such a massive creature.

The beast it was pulling, though, was equally impressive and massive. Lucas has read about this beast before; it was a famous beast outside of the city called the Rock Golem. It was roundish and looked like a rough ball of rock.

It also has two eyes situated at the center of the ball-like structure, two arms and legs protruding to the side, equally muscular with a rock-like texture, befitting of its name.

From its appearance alone, one could already tell that it was quite heavy; even a truck from his previous life might not be able to move such a creature. The Bronzehead Oxen of Ethan, on the other hand, was able to move it quite effortlessly. Although the wheels of the pulling cart helped to lighten the load, being able to pull it in itself was quite a feat already.

"I'll settle this guy first, and then I'll get back to you," Ethan said as he led the Bronzehead Oxen forward.

The Rock Golem was just one of the many beasts captured from outside the city. Like the others, it could be used for a lot of purposes. One example was being a sparring partner for a student, in which the Rock Golem would need to fight until the student was satisfied or wounded.

Each battle, the student would pay a certain price, which would be used to take care of the Rock Golem's needs, such as basic food and a wage for cleaning its cages.

A cruel treatment, if it were a normal animal, but as a wild beast, no one thought of giving them any right at all. Even the most extreme animal rights activist might not say a single word even if the Rock Golem was subjected to even harsher treatment.

Wild beasts were extremely cruel by nature. They would attack and even consume every human they encountered.

Just like how humanity saw them as the greatest enemy, the beasts also saw the humans the same way.

The Rock Golem that was being pulled by the Bronzehead Oxen might look calm and gentle, but once it was outside of the cage, it would immediately launch a barrage of attacks on any nearby human or creature.

After a while, Ethan finally came back. The Bronzehead Oxen was no longer following behind him; Lucas guessed that he had already returned it inside his grimoire.

"Follow me; we'll go see her now," he said as he beckoned for Lucas to follow him.

Lucas nodded his head and silently followed behind Ethan.

As they walked, Lucas could not help but ask, "Senior, who is it that wanted to meet me?"

"Oh, haven't I told you yesterday? It's teacher Christie."

'Teacher Christie?'

Lucas repeated the name inside his mind.

As he did so, the figure of a beautiful, mature woman appeared in his mind.

He had heard of this name countless times in the past year but had only seen her in person twice.

Once from afar and second up-close during the awakening ceremony.

She was collectively known in the school as the 'Crystal Keeper' or 'Keeper' for her role of being the only teacher known to operate the Awakening Crystal ever since she came here.

As for why she wanted to meet him, even Lucas was even more confused now that he knew that it was her.

"Anyway, just don't think too much about it. All I can say is that it's only beneficial and not detrimental. You should have already heard of her strength, background, and personality; getting noticed by her is a good thing."

Lucas nodded his head in affirmation. He also heard of some rumors regarding this teacher.

It was said that she actually came from the frontlines and was actually a very strong combatant. As for how high her star rank was, no one knows, and no one dared to find out either.

Teacher Christie has always been known to be gentle and kind, equally to the students and teachers.

If there was anyone who doesn't have an enemy in Starlight Academy, it should be her and her alone.

Ethan led Lucas to the building called the faculty building, situated directly opposite to the entrance of the dungeon area.

This building was not as massive as the dungeon building, but it was equally as important.

Students can only come here during special matters, and no students dared to loiter around here either, as this place belonged to the teachers and all the staff of the Starlight Academy.

It was even rumored that Mr. Starlight himself also has his own office here, situated at the very top of this building.

As they entered, Lucas could feel an oppressive atmosphere forebode the whole area.

As if separated by a great wall, the world inside the building was starkly different compared to the one outside.

Outside, one could always see students walking around in groups. Even though they do it softly, the collective murmurs and soft chatters would still enter one's ears and make the scene appear lively.

Here, however, it was different.

As if everyone agreed to be quiet and not produce any sound, the hallway, even though it had a lot of people coming to and fro, was as silent as a lost library forgotten in time.

This was a different silence compared to a mournful one. Here, it feels as if everyone was afraid of disturbing the peace that everyone collectively maintained.

Everyone's steps were measured and soft, as if afraid of something hearing their steps.

Even Ethan shut his mouth and softened his steps the moment they stepped inside the building.

Following behind Lucas also unconsciously softened his steps, not wanting to attract any trouble.

Although he was the representative of their class, this was actually the first time he came here. It was apparent how important and well-respected this site was for everyone.

This, after all, was where the teachers rested and did their duties aside from teaching.

A moment later, Ethan stood before an office door.

After a few knocks, the door opened, revealing a spacious office that emitted a gentle ambiance.

"Good morning, Teacher Christie. Lucas is here."

Inside, a woman wearing black glasses looked up to them and smiled.

"Come take a seat."
