Vol.2 Ch.93: 30F - The Summoning (3)

'''Vol 2. Ch 93: '''The chapter starts off with Ron Mei reporting to Reflejo, saying that Viole didn't act as expected, and moved in a direction other than what they had predicted. Furthermore, she says that Hwa Ryun, Novick and Ilmar have comitted suicide. Reflejo is astounded by her stupidity, and states that he is only putting up with it as she is the Mad Dog's "Angel". While he is pondering over what Hwa Ryun could possibly have planned, he recieves a call from Devil Bon, who tells him that Viole is going to be summoned from the Item Shop.

Meanwhile, on the South side of the island, Vespa is in pursuit of Beta. Rak, Yihwa and Laure are riding on Vespa's back. Rak expresses his discontent at Laure's continuous sleeping. Suddenly, Quaetro comes into view. He is standing over his defeated opponent. He then tells Rak that Beta was headed towards the Item Shop. Leesoo is befuddled, and wonders what Koon's plans are. Due to lack of knowledge, he decides to improvise. He splits the team into two, telling Rak and Yihwa to go to the Item shop using Shinsoo. He then orders Quaetro and Vespa to head to the Ally Summoning Area. It is revealed that he hsas a bad feeling about Beta's presence in the Tournament.

In the Item Shop, Wangnan is severly injured by Beta (whose eyes are shown to have reverted back to their original colour, before one became red). He is shown to collapse to the floor. When inquired as to why he is interfering in the Devoloping Tournament, Beta simply states that he is acting within the rules, as he, too, is one of the participants. Viole then asks him why he is hurting others, when his quarrel is with only Viole. Beta then tells Viole that he wants him to feel utter despair, and to be there to listen to the cries of his friends as Beta kills them. Just as Beta is about to kill Wangnan, Rak appears at the enterance and throws his spear at Beta. Beta dodges it and asks him how he knew where to come. Rak reveals that he had been following Wangnan's tracks all along. He then throws Laure (who had been resting on his back all along) down on the ground, and tells him to do something useful. As soon as Laure lays eyes on Beta, he notices that there is a foreign substance in his body.

At the enterance of the Ally Summoning Area, Akraptor meets up with Quaetro and Vespa. He tells them that they are in urgent need of points, and so the head inside to defeat Team Snake's vanguard. When they arrive inside, however, no one is present.

On the North side of the island, it is revealed that Reflejo had ordered Team Snake to forfeit the Tournament, as he was aware of their lack of points. He orders that Viole be found, no matter what. He also states that there has been contact from Cassano.

At the Item Shop, Laure tells Koon that he senses something strange in Beta. He says that the Shinsoo flows differently in his head, and that there is probably a parasite there. However, it is being supressed as Beta was "many" to begin with. When Koon asks Laure to deal with Beta, he replies that he is too lazy. Rak then bites him, and eats his precious blanket. Motivated, Laure agitates Medina, who is resting in Beta's head. Medina then thrashes about inside Beta, causing him to puke it out. Koon finally realizes how Beta had entered the Tournament, and orders Rak to capture Medina. Rak dives for it, but Beta's faster. Beta is now aware of his weakness, and resolves to make sure that Medina can't thrash about any more. However, before he can do so, Medina explodes in flames. Yihwa is revealed to have shot it from the enterance, displaying the drastic improvement in her accuracy. As a result, 500,000 points are added. Wangnan then compliments Yihwa for her improvement, saying that all ger training paid off. Beta is astounded by the display of determination. Wangnan then crauls over to the pool, and tells the robot to summon Viole. The chaper ends with the loading period slowly decreasing, and approaching the 5-minute mark, after which Viole will be successfully summoned.
