Summoners War: Only I Summoned Divine Beasts

Chapter 1309: Nathan’s Choice

While he hadn’t learned much about the domains, he had thought about what he truly wanted. But before that, he couldn’t help but raise one topic. “Don’t you see that Fenrir has a different type of domain?”

“…” Evelyn’s eyebrows twitched. Surprisingly, she shook her head. “Not necessarily. While his domain appears powerful enough to dominate others, it is still something I am familiar with rather than a completely new concept.

“However, the way he utilizes it is definitely something that no one has ever seen before.”

“Can you explain?”

“His domain is definitely a Personal Core. In other words, his body is the core of his domain. You know about the four types of domains, right?”

Nathan nodded. “Naturally. Subspace Domain, Reality Integration, Illusory Realm, and Composite Marble. From the looks of it, Anubis’ domain is a Composite Marble, but with Universe Core.

“In other words, his domain has the combination of Subspace and Illusory Realm power. But the core is within the domain itself.” Nathan didn’t say the core, but it was pretty obvious. The core was none other than his scale of justice.

Anubis seemed to have strengthened the core with his divinity. No, it wasn’t just the defense, the offensive power of that core could be used as well.

“On the other hand, Jinwu must have the Reality Integration Type, but with a Stationary Core.”

That could explain how Jinwu’s domain could influence a very massive area.

“That is correct.” Evelyn continued with Fenrir, “Meanwhile, Fenrir has a Personal Core, while his domain is a Composite Marble.

“Instead of just one, he combines all three types.”

“!!!” Nathan widened his eyes. Fenrir never really showed anything about a subspace, a change in reality, or the illusory realm itself. “I don’t understand…”

“It’s normal for you to not understand, but what if I tell you that his domain is extremely thin? Instead of affecting the outside, the domain is solely affecting himself. In other words, the area of his domain is basically his own body.”

“Ah?!” Nathan gasped. Now that he thought about it, this explanation might be enough for all of Fenrir’s legends. Swallowing the sun? He might be able to do it, but that was because the sun was swallowed into the subspace within his body, because his body was his domain.

Reality Integration? Fenrir’s domain completely changed his own body. That was why he had that absolute force that no one could withstand.

Basically, everything he touched meant they would get touched by his domain, which would alter them.

Last but not least, the Illusory Realm. This was something that he couldn’t completely prove, but there might be something inside Fenrir’s domain. They just couldn’t see it because it was inside his body. Unless they got swallowed by him, no one could prove it.

“Domain… Can it be used like that? I mean, we can shrink our domain, right?”

“Yes and no.” Evelyn sighed helplessly. Her domain shrank to barely accommodate her figure. “This is my limit. To be able to completely shape it into a human body, I don’t think I can do it.”

“…” Nathan could understand it in a way. Even in the myth, the gods and goddesses were so afraid of Fenrir that they chained him down. Meanwhile, Loki’s other children, such as Jormungandr and Hela, were thrown into the sea or thrown into Helheim, respectively.

It was as if they didn’t think they possessed so much threat that they had to be monitored all the time.

Nathan rubbed his chin before saying, “Still, even after knowing this, I believe I have made the correct decision.”

“So, you have made a decision which one you would like to have…” Evelyn squinted her eyes.

“Yes. My domain will have a personal core. And the type of the domain will be a Composite Marble, mainly the combination of Reality Integration and Illusory Realm.”

“That is enough for me. Don’t say anything more than that, because knowing the essence of your domain will allow others to destroy it. Not just me. Don’t tell anyone, including your familiars.

“I’m sure you have noticed it, but even your familiars don’t really say anything about their domains. And the other familiars also don’t ask anything about the domains.”

Nathan nodded carefully.

“In that case, let’s cultivate the domain. How?” Evelyn raised three fingers. “The core of a domain is basically the heart of the domain. If it’s destroyed, the domain will disappear.

“That’s why the three cores have their own advantages and disadvantages. The Stationary Core is the sturdiest because unless you destroy the entire area, you won’t be able to destroy the domain. Hence, most people with this type of core will have a wide area, which makes it impossible for the domain to be destroyed.

“Of course, if you are in this situation, you simply leave the area of the domain. They lack flexibility.

“The Universe Core is sturdy but not very sturdy. Most of the time, people tend to make their domain complicated to hide the core of the domain.

“This also means a very high flexibility to your domain. Since you make it complicated, you can hide it in one way or another.

“However, there are rare cases like Anubis. He didn’t hide his core. Instead, he made it sturdier and turned it into the core of his offense and defense within that domain.

“Last but not least, the Personal Core. The Personal Core is pretty sturdy and flexible. To destroy this domain, you have to kill the domain user itself.”

Nathan nodded in understanding. It could be said that the Stationary and Universe Cores were standing in the opposite direction while the Personal Core was between them.

“To create a core, you need a very powerful energy.”

Nathan looked up, recalling Anubis and Jinwu again. In Anubis’ case, the core was an artifact, the scale of justice. He strengthened it with his divinity. In Jinwu’s case, the core was his divinity.

If he took that information into account, he knew what it meant to have the Personal Core. “So, I don’t have to cultivate the core anymore because the core…”

Nathan touched his heart, where his ena was most concentrated.
