This is an instance of the secondary meaning of おめでたい: naive, ignorant, or blissfully unaware in the adjective form, or the idea of being excessively doting of auspicious circumstances or happy to a fault in the adverb.

Thus おめでたくも魔獣を呼び出すとはなっ would be something like "Who would have thought you'd be naive enough to summon a magic monster (or whatever the fuck it is)". You can see how Zero's chiding in the next line makes more sense, in that she's (or he [I don't know what the fuck this manga shit is]) deriding the choice.
