The Summoner Knight has the power to temporarily disable all his summons.
When the Summoner Knight’s valor emerges, all summons will be bound to kneel before him due to his powerful power.
*When the Summon Ban is activated, all the summons of the summoner within 30 meters radius will be summoned back.
(All allied summons are included.)
*At the time of the Summon Ban, all the enemies within the yard of 30 meters are banned from summoning for 15 minutes ‘No Summon’.
(When in a ‘No Summon’ state, the summon skill cannot be cast.)
(When in a ‘No Summon’ state, all the summoned summons can be recalled.)

Summon Ban, one of the unique skills of the Summoner Knight.
Summon Ban as it literally states, provides a debuff skill that prohibits summoning.
Summon was the main skill that could be used by the Summoner and the Warlock, this was a perfect skill that could counter that.
It had a range of almost 30 meters. It had a wide area of debuff.
Because of such a skill, the Summoner Knight was a direct counter to the Lich King.
The Summoner Knight could seal the most powerful skills of the Lich King—the summon skills.
Of course, Ian couldn’t even see the rich summoning power of the Lich King all thanks to his strong helper.
Anyway, when one looked at it, it seemed like a very broken skill.
However, if one would think about it, one could understand why Ian rated this skill as one of the lower class skills when compared to Summon Incarnation and Harmonize.
‘The caster is a summoner—a Summoner Knight…’
The moment Summon Ban was activated, even the own summons of the owner would get summoned back, which meant that it was a skill that couldn’t be used by the summoner’s side.
Especially in the case of the Summoner Knight who received power proportionate to the number of summoned summons. It was a debuff skill that was fatal to the owner.
So, when was the Summon Ban going to be useful?
The answer? ‘Once the battle began’.
Before the caster could summon his familiars and summons, he could activate the Summon Ban and then summon them.
‘Why make an alternate cooldown? It is a vague skill to use once the battle starts, anyway.’
Ian was grunting in the inside and triggered the Summon Ban.
At the very same time, the summons of the Underworld King that were protecting them, all vanished.
“…!”
When the summoned AI vanished, Mukan was shocked.
Suddenly, Ian started to glow red.
“Blood Split!”
In Ian’s hand was a Bloody Dagger.
Bloody Revenge’s unique ability was triggered again.
Swahh-!
But this time, however, as shown earlier, the cooldown was not able to activate the skill succession.
This was because there were no ‘jabs’ around that could fit at the same timing.
In addition, Ian wasn’t even using the Blood Split to damage Mukan.
The only reason Ian triggered Blood Split was to reduce the gap between him and Mukan.
Slash-!
Along with the sharp sound of cutting through the air, Ian, who was glowing red, moved in front of Mukan.
At the same time, Ian began to summon his summons one after the other.
“Ly, Pin, Halli, Karceus, summon!”
Kiyaaa!
He summoned everyone starting with Ly, till Elcarix and Bbakbbak.
System messages came up in front of Ian, which notified him of all the summons that were summoned in succession.
Tring!
[Passive Skill, with Harmonize, all the combat abilities will be 3% stronger.]
[Passive Skill, with Harmonize, all the combat abilities will by 3% stronger.]
(Leak)
Summoner Knight, the strongest passive buff skill.
Before the summons were fully summoned, Ian triggered one of the Summoner Knight’s unique abilities.
“Summon Incarnation!”
The Summoner Knight’s unique ability to summon an ‘Alter Ego’ with 50% of the original body’s combat abilities were triggered.
Since the skill level was still low, only one alter ego could be summoned, however, Ian was confident enough to create even one variable.
The summoned Alter Ego could use all of Ian’s skills.
‘I wish I could summon a replica of my familiars as well.’
With those thoughts, Ian activated another powerful buff skill that he always loved to use.
Hwoong-!
“The will of Selamus Warrior!”
The glow around Ian, which was red because of Blood Split, turned gold.
The Alter Ego that appeared next to Ian had a golden glow surrounding it as well.
As soon as the Alter Ego was summoned, the skill got activated at the same time.
It was a beautiful sight. The buff effects began to overlap.
Tring!
[You activated a unique ability ‘The Will of Selamus Warrior’.]
[Increases skill rank on all weapons by ’15’ for the next 20 minutes.]
[Increases combat abilities by 40% for 20 minutes.]
[All active skills are sealed for 20 minutes.]
Ian, who thought of all the skills in succession, grabbed the sword in hand with a smile.
Just as he had thought in his head, all of his skills got completely linked.
‘I should be careful and not confuse the play order of the skills.’
So far, there was only one unchangeable proposition in Ian’s skill invocation sequence.
He must always activate all the active skills before using the ‘Will of Selamus Warrior’.
Of course, the unique abilities attached to the weapons weren’t going to be affected, but it didn’t matter. And the buff skills and summon skills had to be used first.
However, another proposition had arisen.
The first skill he had to use was ‘Summon Ban’ before he summoned his summons.
Anyway, Ian, who had a strong fighting power through the stacks of buff, quickly ran toward Mukan.
It was a spectacular view.
All of Ian’s powerful summons and Ian with two golden spears in the air and Ian’s Alter Ego were approaching Mukan.
It was hard to believe how they moved in unison.
Some users who were watching the scene from the outside of the enchantment couldn’t help but admire it.
“Wow, when did Ian get new skills again?”
“Yeah. He didn’t have such skills when the episode was going on…”
Ian’s battle scene was so gorgeous that most of them were admiring it.
While most of them were verbally admiring the scene of Ian, there were some who felt uncomfortable.
“Monster kid, how did you suddenly get such new skills?”
Unlike the other users who couldn’t reach the standards of Ian, Shakran was feeling rather competitive.
If he found out that Ian got his new skills because of the support that the Titan and Shakran had given, Shakran would definitely have a stomachache.
‘Is the Lotus Guild trying to squeeze all the support from that guy?’
The fact that he alone was supporting made Shakran bite his lower lip.
In a moment, he saw a lot of skills of Ian overpower the Underworld King. Shakran wasn’t able to hold his competitive spirit any longer.
‘Yeah, kid, try harder. The stronger you get, the stronger I will become.’
Ian wasn’t even concerned if Shakran considered him as strong or not.
“Uhhh!”
The moment Ian exhaled, two lightning spells fell from the air.
Kwang- Kwangg-!
The unique ability of the Judgment of the Spirit King was activated. The Lightning’s Judgment fell from both the spears.
However, in the places where the lightning fell, instead of seeing Mukan, Ian only saw dust.
“…!”
The first unique ability that Mukan did when he appeared ‘Blink’ was used again.
“Sh*t.”
Ian cursed under his breath.
No matter how high the defense of the Underworld King, if he had just been attacked, the Underworld King would suffer a considerable amount of damage.
Therefore, it was regrettable for Ian.
“Still a kid.”
Meanwhile, Mukan who just managed to stop the unstoppable attack of Ian had a change in mood.
The ‘interesting play’ he thought had turned into a serious battle for him.
Swahh-!
A strong dark energy emanated from Mukan constantly.
Ian could feel the power that the energy had, but he couldn’t afford to get distracted by it.
Just looking at Mukan, in the beginning, was enough for him to make sure that he was a worthy opponent.
“Just hit, you had to avoid it, shamefully?”
Seeing Ian saw all that, nerves started to stick out of Mukan’s forehead.
“Man, I’ll see how long you’ll be able to tease me!”
Mukan’s form once again disappeared in the air.
However, Ian had already figured out how to play the skill.
‘It sure is a tricky unique ability, but there is no skill that can’t be predicted.’
The moment Mukan’s body was caught in flames, the smoke rose elsewhere at another place at the same time.
Since the position where Mukan would appear was that point, Ian was able to cope with it without much difficulty.
Kwang- Kwakwang-!
In the wake of Mukan’s curved blade, two shields took cover.
Just like the Judgment of the Spirit King, ‘The Dragon Shield’ with an Alter Ego weapon prevented the attack from Mukan.
At the same time, the body of Mukan started to get engulfed in black smoke.
Swoosh-!
‘Where is it this time?’
A stream of cold sweat fell down Ian’s back.
He knew the cooldown ability of the unique ability was short, but he didn’t know it could be played in succession.
Smoke rose at seven different places.
“Fake?”
Ian’s head started to work right away.
The smoke rose in seven places, which meant that where Mukan would appear was unknown.
‘No, Mukan can appear in all seven places too.’
Seven places, all around Ian, which meant he couldn’t move.
Ian bit down his lip and snatched the Dragon Shield that was floating in the air.
At the same time, Mukan’s voice rang out.
“Die, bastard!”
From the seven spots that surrounded Ian, Mukan’s shadow moved up.
Seven uncommon shadows were now rushing toward Ian.
Swaah-!
Seven wolves flew in unison with ferocious speed.
There was no escaping this attack even if it was Ian.
Because of the penalty that was attached to the ‘Will of Selamus Warrior’ ability, even a space warping skill couldn’t be activated.
