6 First Summoning
Seeing all this made me feel I was playing a game from the earth, on my PC.
I really wanted to summon an Elite VII, after he was nearly invincible. But till I knew about the total number of SP I had, I didn't want to spend them blindly.
After all, I was nearly 99% sure that they were somewhere in front of me, but I was not able to see it.
Going back to soldier tab, screen minimised, and only the bottom card show window remained, showing cards from 1 to 5. The grey card had once again hidden. I choose the second card, the weapon card.
The screen didn't change this time, but the cards in bottom refreshed. Now the first card has a pistol outline. The second card has a rifle outline. The third card has a submachine gun (smg) outline. The fourth card has a machine gun outline. The fifth card has a sniper rifle outline, while the last card was again a card with '+' sign. Clicking on this card, the cards were once again refreshed.
Now the first card has a shotgun outline. The second card had an anti-material rifle outline. While the third card had a carbine as an outline. Lastly, the fourth card has a knife, a short sword and knuckles.
So in total under weapons card, we have
1) Personal weapon (Pistol / Revolver)
2) Rifles
3) Submachine guns
4) Machine guns
5) Sniper rifles
6) Shotgun
7) Anti-material rifle
8) Carbines
9) Hand-to-hand weapon
Seeing these many types of sub-categories made my head churn. I didn't new even the difference b/w a rifle and a carbine. I only knew that carbines used smaller bullets than a normal rifle.
Even if I didn't know much about guns, having a desert eagle and SSA 45 long colt was every man's dream. Hence I choose personal weapon card first.
The cards refreshed again, now there were two cards. The first card with a pistol as an outline. and a second card with a revolver as an outline. I choose revolver first.
My whole screen changed and like when an opening soldier card, everything changed with 5 cards a row it kept going downward.
on the first row, the first portion was:
George Washington's saddle pistols 10.9k SP
on the second card was:
Simon Bolivar's Flintlock Pistols 10.6k SP
on the third position was:
Gold-Inlaid Colt Model 1849 Pocket Revolver 10.1k SP
on the fourth position was:
Colt Paterson Revolver 9.5k SP
on the fifth position was:
Texas Ranger Sam Wilson's Colt Walker 9.2K SP
Seeing these guns I didn't have much reaction, as I was a layman in the area. But the prices of these guns, they were enough to give me a heart attack. But I noticed that there was a mix of revolvers and pistols in the first five cards.
Without giving these another glance, obviously due to their price, I looked down. There was:
Astra 680
Charter Arms Bulldog
Chiappa Rhino
Colt Anaconda
Colt Buntline
Colt Cobra
Colt Diamondback
Colt Python
Colt Trooper Mk. III
Colt Trooper
FN Barracuda
Gward revolver
MP412 REX
Manurhin MR 73
Mateba Autorevolver
MIL Thunder 5
Beretta Laramie
OTs-01 Kobalt
Medusa Model 47
S333 Thunderstruck

It took me a while before I knew that SSA 45 Long Colt was a custom version of Beretta Laramie. But I found the gun at last. It was only 14 SP and I knew that I would need a weapon for self-protection at least, so why not. So I decided to buy it.
When I clicked Beretta Laramie card, I suddenly felt my hand very heavy. In my hand was a new Beretta Laramie, It was a new version, made from new composite metal, hence weighing only 1.05 kg. It was having a six-chamber for bullets in the revolving cylinder. Feeling the cold metal surface a new sense of power came from within. It was not that I was suddenly powerful, but seeing a gun appear out of thin air made me finally realise that system was really real, and not a hallucination that I have after having a mental break down.
Similarly in the pistol card/section:
The top five were same as the pistol ones. but those from the sixth position were fully different.
There was:
Akdal Ghost TR01
ALFA Combat
AMT AutoMag II
AMT Lightning pistol
Armatix iP1
Arsenal Firearms AF1 "Strike One"
Beretta M9
Beretta 92G-SD/96G-SD
Bersa Thunder 9
Bren Ten
Zastava CZ 99
Daewoo Precision Industries K5
Dan Wesson M1911 ACP pistol
Desert Eagle

Fort-17
FN FNS
Glock 19
Inam
Komodo Armament P1-95
PL-15 Lebedev
Here also I found the desert eagle, it was 27 SP, but I bought it without even looking a the price.
And suddenly I had a desert eagle in my hand. It was heavier than Beretta Laramie. Around 2 kg, but of course, it used bigger and heavier rounds.
After playing with the desert eagle and SSA 45 long colt, I went back to the system. And started to look through other cards.

a) Personal weapon
b) Rifles
c) Submachine guns
d) Machine guns

While I was debating whether I should do a humanoid summoning, something on the right side of my vision caught my eye.
When I focused on it, like a Hamburger Menu, it popped out. With a heading Quick menu, it had 5 options.
