Chapter 15: Legendary Summons (1)
The wolf puppy was so adorable that Jake couldn't even feel wrong about him being so small and far from the hulking and dangerous wolf boss he'd imagined before summoning concluded.
He was like a small ball of white fluffiness. His red eyes, holding Jake in a loyal gaze, twinkled, and his craving to work hard for his master had been clearly conveyed through them.
"I can't believe you can only be up for five minutes," Jake said as he got onto his knee and scratched the wolf's chin, making the wolf close his eyes and enjoy his master's affection. "You need a name… let's see. How about Odin? It's a powerful name for the wolf fated to become the best archer's partner."
Woof! Odin liked his name. He licked his master's fingers.
Jake grinned and continued building this special relationship. "My name here is Archer, but I'll tell you my real name since we're going to work together from now on."
It sounded like a secret.
The puppy couldn't help but look up and stare at his master with even more stars in his supposedly feral eyes. He even lolled out his tongue in the excitement.
Laughing, Jake shared his real name, "It's Jake."
Woof! Woof! Woof! It seemed Odin repeated Jake's name a few times in his language.
After that, Jake stood up and looked over his shoulder at the wolf boss' carcass. He couldn't tell if his new pet felt terrible about him killing this monster, but giving up on the boss' resources would have been a fatal mistake.
If he were really to have them, it'd be better for Odin to grow up detached from those feelings.
Deciding that it'd better start the harsh lesson now, Jake ignored his conscience and searched for the hook point on the wolf boss' corpse. Finally, he grasped the sharp teeth and began dragging the carcass out of the wolf boss' arena.
He had never felt so encumbered in his entire life, but pain and burden made way for his stubbornness, which fueled Jake's determination to get this boss to the forest's feet.
Shortly after, Odin ran to Jake's front and barked at him. It didn't sound like he was angry at his master, but rather, he wanted to ask for something.
Jake, however, couldn't understand him well yet. At first, his conscience and prior thoughts resurfaced, but he buried them in his heart, which momentarily allowed him to see through Odin's intent.
"You want to help me?" Jake asked, "Go ahead if so."
Odin howled aloud and zoomed behind the wolf's carcass. Having received his first order from his master, he was zealous and used all his strength to help him.
Though small, Odin was five times stronger than Jake. When the puppy pushed his nose into the carcass from behind, Jake felt much of his burden drop off, allowing him to carry the boss' corpse much easier.
"You're awesome, Odin!" Jake genuinely exclaimed, encouraging his partner.
His new summon didn't have room to reply back as he spent all his strength and means on his task. Nonetheless, Jake added that he could feel his loyalty, further encouraging the little wolf.
Around three minutes later, Jake and Odin were past the starting point of the wolf boss's hunt. It was here that Jake had entered the soldier stance for the first time and killed the wolf boss' guards.
The said guards had respawned, threatening to take their boss' dead body back.
Odin, however, was the first one to feel their presence. Compelled by them to make a move despite his master's silence, Odin rushed to the front and growled at the common wolves, who made their way toward them.
All wolves froze on the spot. Not only was Odin much stronger than them, but his white fur and red eyes expressed the prominence never seen in their lives.
Their instincts alone told them not to do anything toward this little creature.
Behind Odin, Jake instinctively entered his soldier form, his body rigid and rooted to the ground. He reached his anchor point reflexively and shot down three wolves in rapid succession.
Odin howled aloud, impressed by his master's strength and technique. When he turned around, he conveyed his feelings through his eyes and tongue hanging on his jaw—he was so adorable and supportive.
That was when Odin's time ended.
He sadly shrieked before his entire form dispersed into white streaks that flew straight into Jake's right arm.
"Thank you, Odin. I'll see you soon." Jake said just before Odin's consciousness entered the slumber.
[Call Of The Wolf Boss(Odin) will be available in an hour.]
After that, Jake did his usual routine. He prepared the makeshift beds from leaves and covered every wolf he defeated on his way back to the safe zone, keen on not wasting even one carcass.
He spent much more time in the game than usual.
In fact, Odin helped him four times more that day.
