Bab 425: Infernal Devils

"Oh, you're the first Hellhound who actually speaks instead of just roaring and charging into battle."

[I was simply curious. To think that my summoner was also summoned himself. And you…though you appear to be a Level 700, you're not actually at that level, are you?]

"And why do you say so?"

Arthur was curious about what made this particular Hellhound believe he was not a Level 700 and the answer wasn't too far from his expectations.

[Your magic power is much too strong for a being below Level 800, and more importantly, you comprehend the law of Summoning.

I have been summoned time and time again by both Transcendents and those below, so I've become able to tell the difference.]

It seemed that Arthur had called up a veteran in the Summoning business, one that practised the path of 'The Summoned'.

"I see."

Arthur only shrugged, not bothering to correct the Hellhound before transmitting his intent to the Summoned Beast.
