Small upgrade system

Alena, Maria, and the other warriors finally came to the cave. They traveled at their fastest Speed to reach the cave. They also know about the dangers of the forbidden summoning. Because of this, they didn't want to waste any time.

"Miss Maria and Miss Alena, you are finally here?" Seeing them, Jeni said to them that she was also worried about the forbidden summoning. Jeni doesn't know the danger, still just looking at the symbol. She was feeling uncomfortable, and she knows her prediction never went wrong.

"Don't worry. Leave everything to us," Maria assured them. All of them went toward the symbol.

Elena and Tony's other teammates, who didn't know about the forbidden summoning, were now confused. They went towards Elena and Tony to ask them. 'What is happening here? Why do warriors from the association come here?'

Jeni, Elena, and Tony look at each other. They were thinking, what should they do? Should they tell them about the forbidden summoning or not? Not everyone has strong willpower. If after hearing about the forbidden summoning they panicked and did something reckless, then it will be dangerous for them.

"Don't worry. You should tell them. If they don't know about the danger, then they won't be able to prepare themselves. And we are here, so don't worry," Marks said to them.

After hearing Maria's words, Elena tells the others about the forbidden summoning. She told them how they found a weird symbol in this cave after the battle. Someone from the dark association draws the symbol with blood. It was a Forbidden summoning pattern that can summon Vicious monsters. The monster which Tony and his teammates faced was a vicious summon monster. She also tells them she also found evidence that the summoner already used that pattern to summon the monster. Also, they found some evidence that the summoner was here before they came here, and once again he was planning to draw a forbidden summoning pattern to summon the monster.

It took her some time fully to explain the matters to them. All the warriors were silently listening. It also takes them some time to digest all the matter.

They panicked. It was a normal matter to panic. Tony's teammates were becoming scared just thinking about the monster. They saw anything like that monster and it was their first time experiencing a near-death situation. It was the reason they were scared. They didn't want to face that monster again.

"Do you know where is Sam? I can't see him here," Alena asked them.

"Oh, he is now sleeping. When grandma told us about the forbidden summoning, Sam's expression paled. I don't know what happened but, I think he was scared. He also didn't tell us about it. I tried to find out and asked him, but he said nothing." Jeni pointed her finger in Sam's direction while she was telling Alena about Sam. Before Sam fell asleep, she tried to ask him, 'Why is he scared?' But he said nothing.

Alena looks at Sam. He was sleeping. Seeing that she didn't disturb him. When she was about to enter the forest, Victor, Hina, and Gloria told her to look at his condition. They were worried about him. Fortunately, she didn't tell them about the forbidden summoning. But then suddenly when she, Maria, and the others came toward the cave, she received a call from her grandpa. He told her about the student's condition and Sam's condition.

Sam was the only person there who knew about the forbidden summoning. It was normal for him to become afraid. He also didn't tell others about the forbidden summoning and bore the immense pressure alone. She won't know what she should do? Should she become happy that he didn't tell others about the forbidden summoning? Or should she become angry? But one thing was obvious: she was also worried about him.

Previously, she stayed at their house. Victor and Hina were very good to her. She also enjoyed the atmosphere in their house. This was the feeling she missed after her mom and dad passed away. Her grandpa, always busy in his work. Only she and her sister stay in the with their grandmother. So we can say she enjoyed herself there. She also sees Sam as a little brother. So, it was natural for her to worry about him.

Alena went toward him. She placed her hand on his forehead. Seeing that he didn't have any fever, she sighed in relief. Suddenly, she activates her healing hand technique. A green light appeared around her right hand. She patted his head. It will make him relax and he will feel mentally refreshed.

While she was patting his head, the others were too looking at her. Now they have two questions in their mind, 'What relation do they have? Why did she suddenly pat his head?'

Alena didn't mind that questionable look. Sam was like a little brother to her. She needed to heal her brother before answering their question.

Maria and the other warriors came in front of the symbol. She also looks in Alena's direction and then focuses on the symbol. She knows Gloria was Alena's student and Sam was Gloria's brother. So, it was natural for Alena to look after her student's brother. They need to discover which type of forbidden summoning was this.

Jeni suddenly remembers who Sam was. Sam is Gloria's brother and Alena is Gloria's teacher. Now, she understood why Alena looked after him and why she previously gifted him that bracelet. She also told others about this, so they don't have any misunderstanding about Sam and Alena's relationship.

When Alena saw he looked relaxed, she stopped the healing hand technique and got up from the ground. She went towards the symbol. Now their key priority was to search for the type of this symbol and also find the culprit. But only them, but sometime later, many warriors will enter the forest. Tomorrow is the last day of the exam and all the Saints think that the dark association will attack these students tomorrow.

"Anything about the symbol?" Alena asked.

" Yes, it was an ox summoning pattern. Which will summon the vicious ox from hell. Fortunately, the culprit didn't use didn't draw this full symbol with Tony's blood. I think he used two students' blood to draw this. But Tony was near the monster, so he got attacked by the monster. We don't know the other person whose blood they used here. But we can tell the culprits didn't have that much control and spiritual energy. Because of this, he used two types of blood in the symbol, so that less spiritual energy can be used. It was a hybrid monster between a low-grade and high-grade monster." Maria told her what they found about the symbol.

"Any clue about the culprit?" She asked.

" Yes, look closely at your spiritual vision. You can see that spiritual aura leaking from those blood drops. I think he used his spiritual energy to refine the blood so that he can summon powerful monsters. Because of this, these blood drops had spiritual energy. If we can just follow this blood, we can find that culprit. But one thing is unclear, will these blood drops lead us to that culprit or not? Because I don't think the culprit was an idiot to leave a clue about him. When all the warriors reach here, then we will begin our search," Maria told Alena. Even if these blood drops didn't reveal the exact location of the culprits. Still, it will help them.

At an unknown location,

"Damn those students. There are many places for you to camp, but those damn brats come to my cave. I think the association was now aware of the Forbidden symbol. Damn brats, this all happens because of you. Tomorrow, the world will witness the power of the lord. Hahaha..... " the warrior said. He was planning to summon his lord tomorrow and let the world witness his lord's power. He was now clearing the clue about him. Previously because he left the cave quickly, blood dropped on the ground from his paintbrush. He knows with this blood, the warrior association can locate him. So he needed to clear the clue.

Previously, he was thinking about summing 2 to 3 of these types of vicious monsters before summoning her lord. But because of these brats, he wasn't able to do it. Which made me very unsatisfied.
