At the time when their hope finally arrived, the whole village cheers so hard that nearby adventure might mistakes there was some uncharted small town nearby. That was how joyful they were as they heard the word success. One also need to know that the village had only measly 100 villagers. So in order to be able to produce such noise would of course warrant such an attention.

However for the adventures that were nearby they only grow suspicious. There were the possibility of their mishearing or illusion, after all such a thing wasn't rare at all. But if they had triggered an illusion barrier that could cause such loud cheers filled with dread and desperation, they  could only become more cautious. This had  made them  went farther from the noise origin.

One of the basic teachings of the adventurer stated for any adventurers to evade any anomaly that have never been reported before, and if investigations become a priority, do it with utmost discretion.

Getting back to the village, where they had thought such miracle had finally descended upon them. They grow quite quickly and instead of another cheering, they hurried gather in front of the temple where they await for the chief announcement.

***

Inside the temple, there standing two man. One of them was the chief of the village, Baron and the other one was his aide, Humas. Baron and Humas was one of the most trusted people in this small village that still wasn't named yet. They had not bothered to do such a thing after all if some accident happen, they will be forced to empty the village immediately.

" So, Humas what do you find inside the summoning tablet stone ?"

" This, this is really such joyous event for us chief."

" Oh, to make you that happy, it must be extra ordinary."

" Not only extraordinary chief, it seems we hit the jackpot."

" Oh, is it beast type ? then we can hurry chain and bind it so it can protect our villages."

" It isn't beast type chief, it is humanoid type. Although I still can't see it clearly but chief see it for yourself."

" Alright, let me see ...Oh.. it is true, hurry hurry get it out of the stone tablet and bring him to the binding table."

" Yes "

And so Humas become more vigorous doing his works. Chipping the stone here and there without caution as he could already saw the image inside the summoning stone tablet.

Inside it was a blurry image of Human that grow clearer and as if responding to the stone that was getting thinner and thinner, the inner membrane of the stone began beating harder and harder.

finally the hammer that was thinning and crushing the outer layer of the stone managed to hit the true summoning membrane of the table, with *splosh* the membrane broke and the figure inside come slouching outside, sliding with sticky liquid around him.

If Kazama from the other world saw this scene, he would immediately recognize the man that was covered with sticky liquid as his lifelong friend, Basura. But this was other world , and no one recognize him.

" Hurry take him and bring him to the binding table, he can be dangerous, we need to bind him fast."

" Yes , yes"

Humas then quickly brought Basara towards the binding table. However when he triedt to grab Basara, he found his hand slowly but surely slipping from his grip. It wasn't caused by the sticky liquid, It was Basara body. Humas felt as if he was holding something but wasn't at the same time.

" Chief ..this ....this."

" What is it Humas ? Hurry don't you fear if he gets out of control ?"

" No chief, I can't hold him ... we need mage !"

" Mage ? what do you ...Oh could it be !"

" It is a spirit chief ! a spirit !!"

" AH ....ahahahahaha how can it be, we truly got a blessings from the heaven. Thank Vera !"

Vera was known as goddess of harvest in this world. Many kind of god and goddess were worshiped in this world, Vera was just one of the many. Although not so dominant , many of those who worship Vera were small villages that hang their live on farming.

" Let this old me handle it myself. I may not seems like it but in my young days I can use a bit of mana."

" I hadn't know that chief."

" Of course you wouldn't, you were just a brat at that time. now move aside."

" Bra..y-yes chief."

Humas seems bit dispirited when he was called a brat. Though he  was no longer a brat, but perhaps he had some lingering regret when he was called a brat by his senior, the chief of the unnamed village.

The chief Baron than hurriedly chant something and a light blue began to glow in his hand. He then proceed to hold Basara body, holding it with his arm in a princess carry style. This had shocked his aide.

" Im-Impresive chief."

" Shut up, let me concentrate."

As Humas was scolded by his chief, he immediately became quite and chose to just watch the chief doing his job.  The distance between the chief and the table was only measly three meters now and he had only moved about  four steps from where Basara was yet Baron face was so pale.

Sweats was pouring nonstop from his faces, his body trembled hard. The ground in which he had passed had grown noticeably wet. Baron right now looked like he had already ran a great distance and hadn't eaten nor drink anything during that period.

With such great difficulty the chief keep proceeding, striding forward, bringing  Basara  closer and closer towards the table. During this painful time his aide could only watch as the chief managed to finally put basara atop the binding table, he hurriedly draw closer and hold the chief body.

" Leave the rest to me chief."

" Go fast, before he wake up."

Humas said nothing and proceed with the procedure. He began to tie Basara limbs to each of the summoning table corner with a prepared enchanted rope. When he was done, he began  to pour some sort of yellow liquids towards the pre arranged diagram  in the binding table.

As if alive, the diagram began to absorb the liquid and started to redistribute it to the symbol that was scribbled in the table's surface. It all happened so fast that to normal human it would be seen as an act of activating some sort of magic, well in fact it does start the act of activating some magic, a binding magic that is.

Binding magic was popular in this world, tough for some reason it cannot be applied towards human species and its sub species, it can still be applied towards other things, including those that was called from a summon.

The Summoning act itself didn't necessarily bind the summoned creature towards its caster, as such binding techniques were developed. There were many kind of binding technique such as self imposed bind, forced bind or even an equal bind, also known as equal contract.

Summoning can only be performed by those who had practiced the way of summoning and pledge them self to serve the God of Dimension, Aresta. Those who have pledged them self than was imposed a mission to spread their might and technique in this world.

Most of other God or Goddess also bestow this kind of special ability for their followers, with similar mission to show the might of their technique,magic and mastery to the world, therefore increasing their influence and  if it's grow big enough their respective temple could easily change the state or balance between kingdoms and country.

They can even influence the forming of a basic adventuring rule into taxes and even more. This all was done to bring the glory back to their respective temple that serve their God or Goddess.

Because of this some of the temple often fought other for their supremacy, but such was controlled in an event called War of Emperia. It had complicated rules and timing so small squabbles still happen every now and then when their needs weren't fulfilled.

However overall it was just a small squabble and the general populace work together quite well.

For the general populace, the act of pledging oneself towards a temple would also be known as gaining a class. Thus a summoner class was more popular for the populace to talk about and easy to recognize compared to servant of Aresta.

Back to the preparation for binding magic, Humas had finned all the procedure leaving one aside. He now asked the permission of the chief before hurriedly and carefully prick his knife to the chief thumbs.

Afterwards he hurriedly placed the blood in the summoning table, which in turn quickly disappear. This act was known as the final binding step, it introduce its master blood forcefully and imprinted it towards the target. Later one when the binding target awaken, they then would be forced to obey the master order.

Although the exact things that happen was much more complicated, but to put it simply it makes the target recognize the blood that was imprinted onto them was their own parents for most case, or perhaps to be recognized immediately as one master.

Such things occur differentially for each case but the majority did indeed made them obey the master compelty, since in some case the binding even forced immediate death when the bounded target disobey its master.

The yellow light that was emitted from the binding table now grow dimmer and eventually disappeared.

*Sigh*

Both man that was present at the place felt save now and finally able to relax.

" This was truly fortunate for us chief"

" Yes it indeed does."

" If the Summoner and his party at that time didn't arrive in time urghh .."

" True, we would have been forced to move again... "

" It was only one summer since last we moved and some of our harvest haven't bear anything yet. Just imagining that it get destroyed right before it rip destroy my mood quit badly chief ..."

" Yeah, truly it was hard. We have no capable young nor old man anymore in our village, all of them was conscripted forcefully for the War of Emperia..."

" Just what is our ruler thinking competing  with one of the major Kingdom in this continent."

" It must be greed, greed such a scary things, we need to be careful too .."

" But chief, they take our men forcefully and even threaten to destroy our village and kidnap our residents, I can't forgive them no matter what."

" It is, but we are powerless ...if we had refused ...perhaps you and I wouldn't be even here, our woman would be raped and sold. Our children would be killed."

" But chief right now they should have already allowed our man to come back to the village, its been what ...1 season since the last War of Emperia... and they even lost too."

Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

" That is precisely why they haven't returned yet ..."

" Do you mean that all of our man were killed in battle ?"

" That is a possibility yet we mustn't tell such a thing to the other alright ?"

" uhh ...I really hate our ruler, he should just go die !"

" Watch your tongue, you should be thankful at that time you were struck with disease and you couldn't even move a muscle."

" well chief, that was embarrassing for me, day by day I was being taken care off and I can't do nothing for my family, especially my wife."

" You can do that now, just stay safe. We are the only two healthy man left in this village, we must protect everyone here."

The two continued to chat for a period of time. Both of them knew that everyone else had gathered in front of the temple, waiting for their news, but both of them were extremely tired.

They also don't want to leave the spirit they just bind alone, afraid if something goes wrong and the spirit rampaged about. The chief was the only one who was capable to stop the spirit after all, even it means killing the spirit with the binding magic.

*****

They were obliviously new to the summoning business, their savior was only explaining briefly about what must be done before leaving after receiving their rewards from saving the village.

At that time monster was attacking the village, their advance warning perimeter failed and panic spread quickly in the village. Luckily the summoner group were nearby and helped them. When they asked if the summoner and his groups would be willing to stay a bit longer in the village, they had blatantly refused.

They said something about important mission and they can only help this much although after a few negotiations, their summoner willingly perform a summoning rift. The sight of the summoner doing the summoning magic was such a sight for the villager, as it was their first time.

They had given the adventurer group what few gold they had left along with foods from their reserve that could only deplete thinner and thinner. They had also promised to allow  the summoner to built the Aresta temple inside the village and the villager would willingly protect it.

It would actually cost them time and energy if they were to do that, but in the end they still  chose to accept it as the summoner told them it was important for the summoned creature to reside in the temple while recovering its energy.

After the summoning was done, the stone that was being used to perform summoning magic need to be placed inside the temple too as they told the villagers that it would increase the chance in getting a good summoned creature.

The summoner also told the villagers that it is important to bind the summoned creature as it could endanger the whole village. The chief just nodded at that word as he along with the other villagers were desperate to survive after the monster attack.

The summoner than *kindly* form a binding diagram and imprinted it towards one of the sturdy table in the village, along with providing some enchanted ropes and adding some extra special liquid after some extra gold. He told them it was only one time use, so a failure was no option. When all of that was done, the summoner and his groups immediately leave the village.

Until now all the villagers didn't know the name of the adventurer and his group as they refuse to identify them self, since they are on special mission and afraid if someone else find the truth about them, it could disturb their mission.

The chief at time actually hated the adventures group as he felt really uneasy about them. However he had no choice but just to obey them, after all what power he had to resist them ?

In actually Baron the chief could no more be correct about the adventurer. The adventurer were the one who herded the monster towards the village after scouting the village.

Determining the value of the village and the strength of the populace within, they aggroed the nearby pack of monster towards the village, only to appear a bit late as to make the situation more dramatic.

They had actually hold their laugh all the time during their stay in the village. They really wanted to actually kidnap the girls there and just run amok, but it was also true that they were on mission. Such thing could attract the unwanted attention of other righteous adventurer, thus rendering their mission, making it unnecessarily harder.

They then decided to agro the monster nearby to ransack the village and become their hero. Their plan was to save the villagers and earn some extra money. But then they were surprised that the villagers had actually not officially served any God or Goddess, This can be assured when they couldn't found any Vera temple that was common in small village. They smile happily and so they take the rare chance to introduce their leader God Aresta there and *kindly* told the villagers to serve their leader God.

Making a temple there and force the villager to serve and protect the temple. This would automatically increase their merit when they report it later. Their main temple could just run some simple magic to verify the truth and ascertain that the temple wasn't just placed randomly but among populace and it was getting cared.

The summoning act they had done was true though, it wasn't falsified at all since at last they need a degree of trust for the villager if they really want to protect and serve the temple in their village.

However the quality of the summoning magic and binding magic was scarified as they won't bother to use expensive ingredient here nowhere in the forest in the small village. Summoning inside stone was perhaps one of the most ancient method with the rate of powerful, intelligent summoned creature success so low that almost willing to do it as a method to get their hands on a reliable summoned creature.

Most summoner prefer other medium that won't hinder their summoned creature therefore granting immediate consciousness after a summoning rite was performed and they can immediately be used in battle.

Imagine summoning a creature inside a stone that you need to care and prick for a very long time to safely deliver the creature inside it. Such a roundabout way was very unpopular for summoner class, although since it seems uncomfortable to do, the summoner temple had made summoning magic using stone as medium as one of the basic. They even made it a standard passing grade for novice summoner.

As for the binding magic ? it was only scribbled lightly a top of one random thick wooden table they had found inside the village. The special liquid that Humas was carefully using was in fact a simple water with added coloring dew and mana.

The strength of the binding magic was actually really low completed with a low success rate of binding since the condition that was applied to set it up was really high, such as absolute command, unlimited summoning time allowing the creature had the ability to reside in this world  and  not to forgot the most important function which is immediate death when master order was refused.

This of course had to be done to appease the villagers. Just what can one expect from summoning performed with a stone, a random table, water and measly amount of mana. However all of this were a secret that the villager did not know.

After the negotiation was done, the summoner and his group smirked and laugh a lot in their hearts. However they tried hard to keep their act hidden and chose to hurriedly leave the village.

But after all had happen, their deeds was done and they moved away from the village while feeling as if they had win and achieve a major accomplishment. They didn't expect that their measly method had managed to summon one of the rare being in Bumi. Their method had in fact managed a spirit, an intelligent befitting it appearances.

3 hours passed by and the crowd outside began to grow impatient, and finally they decided to leave and return to their works when a flash of blinding light flashed inside the temple, and the embarrassing building called temple was destroyed. With massive boom sound the building wooden wall crumbled, the roof flew good distance away from the impact produced inside the building.

However strangely the villagers didn't panic at all and instead looking awed at the sight of a man, or perhaps in this world know as spirit flew, staggering the air while holding his head  and when he moved his lips a strange melodic sound flow, reverberated around the surrounding, calming the onlookers around him. He said

" This ... Wh-where am I ?"

***

A moment before the spirit Basara awaken, the two man inside temple were surprised at the trembling air they felt around them. The tables behind them began to crack and the diagram that was drawn atop of it began to disappear, leaving only a small bit of it behind. If the summoner were still here then he could recognize that his rule was abruptly erased from existence, leaving only small part behind.

The flash then grow brighter until a huge destructive sound was let out and they could only hide and cower below the table that was cracking and crumbling.

*Bing* *Bing* *Bing* sounded endlessly in the chief head until it finally stopped and when he remembered what he was supposed to do he said " Open Notification"
