Chapter 187: Requiem

[Summoning Dungeon Champion]

In the black void, the timer had stopped and Ed's mind was sucked into a vacuum and tossed into a body, his skeleton body. The familiar sense or rather the lack of a sense of touch returned to Ed, this meant he had regained his lucidity. That also meant he could hear a violent commotion and see sparkling lights in front of him.

'Intruders…!' Ed was shocked. This was the first time he had ever been summoned while already being besieged by adventurers. To make matters worse, all of the dazzling spells that flew past were getting rather close. A stray fireball even blasted into the temple!

Iron, who acted as Ed's bodyguard, did not miss this either and stopped playing statue to immediately jump into the line of fire but the ball of fire was instead stopped by the earth. The temple which had been brightly lit by the red roaring flames returned to its usual ominous red as the crystal torches once again became the main source of light.
