My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—
Chapter 144 Third Round— Three-Way Fight VSuddenly, a floating figure wearing a tattered cape appeared right in front of Oversight, causing him to tuck his tail and run. In the presence of an unknown, it is for the best for one to take a precautionary retreat while expecting the worst-case scenario to happen. Little did Oversight know, had he attacked at that instant, Vulcan would've taken control of Satoshi's mind.
"What was that? One of his summons?" Oversight asked, side-glancing towards Vulcan.
"I have no idea, this was the first time I saw that... what do you think it is?"
Everyone in the audience, even Satoshi's teammates, was left speechless at the imposing aura that the floating figure gave. It's as if it came straight out of death's door and appeared on stage to haunt everything it sets its eyes to.
"What are you wearing?" Satoshi asked.

"Ah, right. I didn't think of that." Satoshi nodded, understanding what Gabriel meant.
"What are your orders, master?" Gabriel asked.
"I know it'd be you who'd be able to put on a good show, that's why I called you out here. I want to see what you're capable of and at the same time, I want you to impress everyone watching." Satoshi smiled. "This is your debut, your introduction to this world, your genesis. I hope you take that all in and show them what the Great Summoner Gabriel has."
"As you wish, Satoshi. Once again, I thank you for giving me this opportunity." Gabriel said, floating a little bit higher before extending his hands.
After clearing his throat, he turned around, addressing the audience. "I am... I am the Great Summoner! Bow before me, or experience my wrath!" Gabriel said in a deeper voice than usual. When Satoshi told him to put on a good show, there's no question that he'll do just that. And since his face was covered with the hood, he looked even more threatening as usual, giving him the atmosphere of someone great, just like what he called himself a moment ago.
The audience didn't know what was happening but since Satoshi announced that he'll put on a good show, they knew that they'll just have to go with the flow and see what Satoshi had in store for them. With Tuxedo in the lead, all of them bowed towards the one calling himself the Great Summoner.
Seeing everyone bow before him was truly a surprise for Gabriel. Quite frankly, he just didn't know what to say so he recited something from a book he once read. Honestly, he felt a bit embarrassed upon seeing everyone bow before him that he froze in place, then glanced at Satoshi.
Meanwhile, Satoshi sat by the corner of the stage, pleased with Gabriel's introduction. He then gestured at Gabriel to continue what he was doing.
"Ehrmm, I see that you all still value your lives as well. However! There's two of you who's got a death wish!" Gabriel growled, turning around to face both Vulcan and Oversight, who were too nervous to even bow down.
"I guess the two of you are prepared to die?" He asked, extending his hands as countless portals appeared.
Oversight gritted his teeth at the sight of the robed figure. He thought that Satoshi just summoned an end-game boss and there was nothing he could do but dodge every attack that would come out of the magic circles. He thought that the portals Gabriel made were actually magic circles.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs for Vulcan, he wondered if he would see Ainz Ooal Gown underneath the hooded robe he wore.
Suddenly, creatures started coming out of the portals. At first, there were two phantom tigers, and then a huge phoenix appeared right behind him. As if that wasn't enough, a huge four-winged wyvern appeared, almost covering the entire stage as it screeched. And then, an army of dragon-like beasts came out of the portals by the horde. A huge emperor penguin, six feet in size, also came out, wearing armor and a crown on its head. Satoshi was surprised that Gabriel still had a lot of summons in store and yet he didn't use it on him. Was he holding back when they fought back then? Satoshi could only wonder.
The sight of all the beasts gathering around the Great Summoner made everyone speechless, especially the huge wyvern that almost covered the entire stage. It was so big that a dozen people could probably ride on top of it.
Of course, the audience wasn't the only ones who were shocked. Tuxedo, who had been floating nearby, almost fell out of his platform when the wyvern suddenly appeared. His pupils dilated and he almost lost his will to live upon seeing such a wonderful creature. He was speechless. He even forgot to comment on what was happening just now.
The viewers at home were on the same boat as well. They thought that Satoshi couldn't get any more powerful and yet he summoned a powerful summoner. It's as if he had an army under one soldier. How could someone have an overpowered superpower? Once again, everyone began questioning what superpower Satoshi really has. And since he doesn't have any records in the SAO Archives, everybody was left with no choice but to speculate.
Meanwhile, Ayumu and Tatsuki were having their usual breakfast while watching the live stream on television. Suddenly, Tatsuki spat out the coffee he was drinking, causing Ayumu to look at what he was watching. "Is that... "
"Yes... that's our son, Ayumu." Tatsuki confirmed, his eyes about to fall out of their sockets due to his disbelief.
"So this is what Satoshi meant when he said he'll be putting on a good show." Vulcan sighed.
"Are you going to give up? Because I'm sure I will. There's no way I can fight against that many creatures at once." Oversight sighed in response to Vulcan's sigh.
