Epic of Summoner: Supreme Summoner System in the Apocalypse

-----

I had left Cuco sleeping with Xijun this night. Just like before, my adorable cat happily protected Xijun with his big body and she felt warm by sleeping over his fluffy and coiled body. Cats are the cutest when sleeping, my Cuco had not stopped being an adorable and fluffy cat even now that he was so massive and powerful.

I woke up and caressed his fur for a bit, he was very warm and it made me wish I could just say with him like this forever… I looked into the window and the sun rose from the horizon. It seems that a new day had come once more and there were hopefully no problems anymore.

However, I couldn't help but think this over and over again as I pondered who could these people had been and what did they exactly wanted? They just wanted to kill her and that's all? They wouldn't go to such lengths just because of that.

They surely want something out of it, something out of killing Xijun. A prize, maybe? Something else…? Something within her?

Does Xijun has some sort of special inheritance or ability within her that they can steal if they kill her? Perhaps there's… some sort of sealed item? Or something else? I am mostly just thinking this without much thought put into it, I am rather confused as what it could truly be, but perhaps Xijun is someone even more special than I had originally thought….

Yes, even more special than before, much more special… Which only brings me more confusion as to what could all of this be. She was raised by a powerful and mysterious old man after all, she fills all the checkmarks for having a mysterious past and some power, an hidden power dwelling within her that makes her unique and plot-relevant.

If we make it seem as if this all was like a Novel, then Xijun is special in this sense. Using my Novelist Techniques, I can already discern she's somewhat of a protagonist herself. Someone very strong that doesn't want to show off her power for some motive. She says that its because her grandfather taught her to not be cocky or something.

But perhaps there was a reason behind this. he wasn't just doing it to leave her be humble. Perhaps if Xijun goes truly all out, this hidden power, or object, or whatever it might be, could resurface from her own body and emerge once more…

So maybe the reason behind not going all out is not using these secret powers which the assassins wants? Ugh, my head hurts. I am simply speculating. I should really ask her directly…

As of now, I was inside of my Divine Realm. Some time had passed inside, and I had spent the rest of the day yesterday in the picnic with my family. I decided to not tell them about this thing until today in the morning, when I gathered with my wives, my two beloved daughters, Ervas, Vudia, Natasha, and others of my allies, including a few of the humans.

This also included Gaia and Mars, who had joined with us as two small floating spheres of bright blue and bright red color. With this, our council was formed. In here were all my trusted aides and closest allies. They were not many as some of my charismatic characters in my novels had them, but they were enough.

Our council was formed right away and everyone was around us. I quickly explained them all the thoughts I previously had within my own mind as I was pondering them in Azure.

"I see, so that could be the case. Xijun… this girl, you said that she was raised by her Grandpa?" asked Ervas.

"Yes, her grandpa… she said her grandpa was incredibly strong, and he was able to easily beat her, who is a monster by itself… her grandfather was surely someone way above us in power level, someone of incredibly might and knowledge." I said.

"Interesting… and he died?" asked Natasha. The demon I had gotten from the Demonic Tower from Earth. She had joined us now as I trusted her enough. it wasn't as if she could run away. And she might provide special knowledge.

"Indeed, he died rather miserably. Out of old age, apparently… Xijun was devasted by this. But isn't it weird for someone so strong to die out of old age? It's very strange, couldn't he extend his life or make a ghost out of his soul to remain with her?" I wondered.

"Yes, I think so the same. Something weird might had happened there… Perhaps her grandfather was targeted by some kind of power, some kind of curse, maybe? Something that consumed him slowly could had done it." said Kireina. Her eyes became sharp.

"I think so too… Maybe this is why it died? And he was protecting her and now he doesn't… and she was particularly shy about walking outside the beach, right? You also said that the beach was weird, as if time there wasn't quite right, and the monsters difference in power was very apart from the ones you found outside, right?" asked Anna.

"Yeah… What does that has to do?" I wondered.

"Oh, I get it!" said Kireina.

"You too?" asked Anna.

"Ah…! Right! How come I didn't realized it?" wondered Natasha.

"W-What is it?" I asked.

"Her grandfather was protecting her from the outside world. That place where you landed and where she was... which was desertic of people until you walked very far away from the beach… It could had been something like a different space, another realm left by her grandfather to keep her safe from the outside world…!" said Anna.

"W-What? That's quite the big assumption but… It makes some sort of sense?" I said.

"And then she was almost killed by these people because they finally sensed that she walked away from this beach… meaning that she is indeed important, as if she were a precious item, some sort of holy item that she is… some sort of… thing." Said Natasha.

They're… partially right. There must be something that connects everything. I wonder if Xijun would answer me if I asked her.
