Others Summon Dragons, I Summon Legendary Knights novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Edwin’s Great Shock

Julia lost her composure when she saw the headmaster’s name flash across her phone. Her hands trembled as she answered, only for the most unexpected sentence to enter her ears.

"Give the phone to Godfrey."

"O... Okay, Sir." She turned to the furious boy seated upright on the sickbed and stretched the phone toward him. Godfrey raised an eyebrow, suspicion flickering in his ocean-blue eyes.

"What?"

"The headmaster wants to speak with you."

Godfrey hesitated for only a second before taking the phone.

"I am speaking to Godfrey Daniels, correct?" Sebastian’s deep, steady voice carried through the speaker.

"Yes," Godfrey answered curtly.

"Your case has just been brought to my table," Sebastian continued, his tone calm yet carrying authority. "I have decided that Dale and his associates will be suspended for two weeks. This will deny them access to the upcoming field trip. Are you satisfied with this outcome?"

"Make it three weeks."

The demand left Julia blinking and Edwin bursting into laughter. To him, this brat had been handed a gift on a silver platter, and instead of being grateful, he dared to make demands? Surely, he would lose everything.

"Of course." Sebastian’s calm response silenced the laughter instantly. "Some students would want them gone for months, but you only added a week. You’re a good kid."

Edwin’s mind stalled, his thoughts crashing into one another. What...? Most students of Manhattan came from powerful, influential families. Why was the headmaster risking so much to provoke them, all for one boy who wasn’t even worth a fraction of their total potential?

The combat instructor, who had fought on Godfrey’s behalf, didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. A three-week suspension? That meant Dale, Siegfried, Orwen, and Maldred wouldn’t just miss the field trip, they would bear that mark even after returning.

Julia’s wide eyes darted to Godfrey. The boy’s expression brightened for the first time.

Meanwhile, inside the headmaster’s office, Edwin cleared his throat nervously. "Sir, I don’t understand. If these students don’t attend the field trip, it will weaken the average strength of the sophomore elites. All we’ll have left is Isolde, Snow, and Cecil."

"Haven’t you seen Godfrey’s new summon? It has top-level High-Tier potential," Evangeline replied before Sebastian could speak. She stood at the headmaster’s side, her voice quiet but confident.

Edwin scoffed. "Golems have no future. Other summons learn and adapt with each experience. Golems have no intelligence. They don’t learn from battles, they repeat the same actions endlessly. Their growth rate is pitiful. After this field trip, Cecil will gain real dungeon experience, and her summon will certainly surpass Godfrey’s."

The combat instructor turned sharply toward Edwin, his frown deepening. But before he could speak, Sebastian’s quiet cough drew their attention.

"Edwin..." Sebastian fixed his stern gaze on him. "Godfrey’s summons are not golems. Some beasts can actually take the form of humans, don’t you think?" He poured himself a cup of tea, lifting it slowly before taking a measured sip. His eyes darkened. "The most dangerous summons the world has ever known were not beasts at all, but those that looked like us."

A heavy silence filled the room as Sebastian sighed.

"I planned to hide this, but I need you both as my hands in this matter. So you’ll hear this once and listen well. Isolde is the first student with Queen potential we’ve had in years. She is a dual summoner, our most treasured student. But what if I told you that on the very day Godfrey awakened, the summon we gauged revealed a tier of 12.1 and a potential beyond our classifications." His voice dropped lower, his eyes gleaming with restrained intensity. "He is an unclassified summoner."

Edwin froze where he stood, his words stuck in his throat. The instructor beside him was equally stunned.

"T... This doesn’t make any sense," Edwin stammered. "If he’s a King-Tier summoner right from the start, the world would have already known! The birth of another King-Tier cannot go unnoticed. He shouldn’t even be beginning as a Low-Tier."

Sebastian nodded solemnly. "That’s what confuses me most. We are dealing with something we’ve never encountered before. That’s why you must ensure he remains under our watch until we fully understand what exactly Godfrey Daniels is."

"He doesn’t know, does he?" the combat instructor asked quietly.
