SSS-Ranked Awakening: I Can Only Summon Mythical Beasts

Three months had waltzed past in the blink of an eye and within that short time, a lot had happened.

Two months ago, Damon had safely arrived at his destination. The Illustrious Elderglow Academy that only accepted the elites of elites. This school of talent was built for the very best students and the lowest talent requirement for admission was a C-Rank talent. Any less automatically disqualified a person from chasing admission.

As if that wasn't enough, there were also magic essence requirements as well as age and skill requirements. Simply put, it wasn't easy to get in. One would have to come from a prestigious family to even get the chance to enroll.

However. There were exceptions. Damon's letter of recommendation had already arrived at the academy before Damon himself, courtesy of his father and the authorities of the academy simply awaited his arrival.

It took a month for him to arrive and along the way, Damon had faced a lot of trials. After seeing to it that Damon had arrived at the academy, his secret escort decided to return home. Lady Reyla returned back to the family estate after she watched Damon arrived at Elderglow.

When he arrived, he was immediately welcomed and tested according to the academy's requirements and when they found out he exceeded the entire requirements, he was immediately enrolled into the academy.

Damon's talent had raised a lot of eyebrows in the upper echelon of the academy which immediately bought him a spot in there. A S-Rank talent that focused on close combat.

The classes of the academy were split into three ranks according to talent and Damon had found himself in the highest rank due to his high ranking talent.

A month later, Damon had climbed to the top five of the class. A class of over seventy students with equally terrifying talents.

Damon's talent was shining through the whole of the academy and he planned to keep the momentum going. The academy would train it's student for four years and after then, they would graduate. By the time they graduated, they would have gathered all the needed experience and would be regarded as fully awakened individuals. Demon Hunters as they were called.

Their final exam made sure of that.

Two months had now passed and Damon continued to shine in the school. He wanted to grow as much as possible for one sole reason. His twin. If he grew strong enough, protecting Damien wouldn't be so tasking and he intended to do just that—protect Damien.

However, today was somewhat troubling. Damon had received a summon. He'd been called to the office of the Dean and during the two months he'd stayed in the academy, he had deduced that eighty percent of the summons to the Dean's office wasn't a nice encounter.

Standing in front of the large wooden door ornately designed with silver and gold petals, Damon took a deep breath before knocking on the door.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

He knocked on the door, the sound echoing down both paths of the empty hallway. He was the only one in the large hallway. Not even a single person could be seen walking past.

Rather than a response from the other side of the door, the door itself hummed with great power and then, it slowly swung open, wide enough for Damon's entry.

From where he stood, Damon took in the whole scene before him. It was nothing short of magnificent even though this was his second time in the room.

The room was a semicircular room with the walls at the far end being made entirely of glass while the other sides were covered with bricks. There was a large wooden table, its design so unreal that it seemed to have been created through a magic act which was indeed the case.

The legs or rather roots of the table dug into the smooth floor, surrounded by short grasses while the top was polished so smooth it didn't seem like a wooden table. It glittered like marble.

The room itself was loaded with tons of varying books arranged in their appropriate shelves. Half the entire room was filled with shelves and even more than the books and shelves was the greenery in the room. The room was somewhat reminiscent of a garden.

Seated on a wooden chair that matched the table was an old man in his seventies. Although he was that old, his build suggested otherwise. He had white long hair that fell down his shoulders and a full beard that was neatly trimmed. His frame however, was confusing as it resembled that of a thirty year old.

Dressed in an all white robe with gold collars and a black staff beside him, the man raised his head and stared at Damon who had remained standing at the door. "Student Damon, come in." The man's voice boomed forth, his tone dripping with authority.

Known by few, feared by all, this was the man that was hailed as the most powerful Dean of any human academy. This was Dean Godsthorn, the Dean of Elderglow Academy.

Obeying the Dean's words, Damon walked into the room and proceeded toward the Dean's table located just before the glassed wall at the end.

"Greetings, Dean Godsthorn." Damon said with a polite bow.

Dean Godsthorn smiled at the boy's etiquette and quickly waved his hand, telling the boy to get over the formalities.

"I didn't call you here for those." The Dean said. With a snap of his finger, another chair sprouted from the ground in the form of a tree and then transformed into a chair just like the Dean's chair.

"We've got something more important to discuss." Dean Godsthorn continued after Damon took his seat. "Like your brother."

Damon froze immediately he heard that word. It wasn't a secret that he had a twin. In fact, on the day he arrived, he'd been asked about his twin.

"There's news going on about your brother." Dean Godsthorn looked around and leaned closer to Damon. "And it's really bad news."

Damon frowned but didn't say a word. Instead, he waited for the Dean to continue.

"I don't know how it is possible but I figured you should know about it since it also concerns you. There's been rumors flying around about how your family killed off your twin and somehow transferred his talent to you."

"What?!" Damon immediately rose from his chair, his voice thundering through the entire room.
