If audio player doesn't work, press Stop then Play button again




I finished the pedestal to welcome the fire spirit and asked Sylphy to visit the fire spirit. I am a little nervous about what kind of spirit will come.

Since we can't sit still, we train Gina to deepen her understanding of the spirits. As usual, she communicates with Belle and Fuchu and the others. Watching them talk happily and move around happily is like watching a playground.

Gina seems to have gotten used to talking to the presence, and after making a contract with the fire spirit, we should check the magic and try to fight against the undead. Fire seems to be effective against the undead, and once we reach a certain level, we can join up with Sara and the others to destroy the big nest.

"Shilfi, I'm back!"

Belle was the first to notice Sylphy's return and pointed her tiny finger at the sky. Perhaps because she is a wind spirit, Belle is the first one to find Sylphie at such a time.

Following Belle's finger, I think I see a figure in the distance ....... To be honest, I'm not sure. But they're coming back a lot faster than they were carrying me. I'd like to believe that he didn't just blow me off because he was worried about the distillation of alcohol.

As I was thinking about this while looking in the direction Bell pointed, the pea-like dots were getting bigger and bigger, and in no time at all, they arrived in front of me.

"Yuta, I'm home. I brought him here."

"Welcome home, Sylphie. Thank you for bringing me."

I thanked Shilfi and turned my head to greet the fire spirit who had come, and there in front of me was the face of a beautiful woman with glowing red hair. She was so close.

"Hey, is that you, the otherworldly person who wants to make a contract with me? Wahu."

...... Yankee and little girl Yankee? And a puppy showed up. Here's a type of guy I wasn't expecting. She says she's me. Is she the same type as Gina?

No, the atmosphere is a little different. Gina is not good with women's language and has no interest in fashion, but the fire spirit has a very rough and rugged warrior vibe. She is a beautiful woman with brown skin and crimson hair, dressed in a tank top and pants ...... like a mercenary.

Another young spirit with shiny red hair is a lively young girl who seems to be imitating the red-haired beauty. After looking around, she spots Belle and the others and is itching to play with them. I have a feeling things are about to get noisy.

The puppy is ...... a light brown-haired Shiba-inu-like puppy. He is very cute, but his red eyes are different from those of a Shiba Inu. I wonder if the hair color is the same for animal type as it is for Tamamo. In the case of Tamamo's hair, the hair color should be light green, and in the case of puppies, the hair color should be red, but what is the logic?

He is in a sitting position in the air with his tail wagging. I want to smooch it. I'm sure Tulu feels the same way. When I glance at Tulu, I see that he is standing slightly closer to the puppy. I'm sure he wants to be smothered. However, no humanoid floating spirits have come so far. Are humanoid spirits rare?

I'm assuming that the little girl is the lower class spirit, but is it possible that the puppy is the lower class spirit? ...... Well, I can't tell them apart by the signs, but the young girl seems to be the lower class spirit. The puppy looks very young.

The fire spirit Sylphy brought to us the other day is also very beautiful, and it's supposed to be a harem in a sense, but I think it's going in a different direction from what I thought it would be.

"Hey, why are you staring so far away from me? Are you listening to me?"

"Hmm? Yes, I'm listening. My name is Yuta. Pleased to meet you.

"Oh, I'm If, the Great Spirit of Fire. I'm If, the Great Spirit of Fire. I'm proud of you for pioneering the land of the dead and making it this far."

He praised me. Maybe he's a bad guy, but a good guy ....... He's a bad guy, but he's a good guy. Well, Sylphy brought him here, so he can't be a bad spirit. Also, he's a big genie after all.

Thank you very much. You must be Ifu.

"Oh, you don't have to be so timid. The others didn't want to use honorifics either. I don't want any trouble so just speak normally and call me by my name.

If," he says, slapping me on the back. I just want to say this. I spoke respectfully to Sylphy and the others as a matter of courtesy, but I spoke respectfully to If only because I felt I was in some kind of danger. The result is the same, but the process leading up to it is quite different. I don't want to tell you this, but I won't.

"Yeah, ifs nice to meet you ...... or am I right in assuming you'll sign a contract with me?"

"Yeah, you're preparing a fire with magical tools to make our life easier, right? If it's too hard for you, you might complain, but I'll make you a contract anyway. Good luck and enjoy my company."

Straightforward in its demands.

"Oh, I'm not really thinking about entertaining you. I'm not sure if I can entertain Sylphy and his friends ...... if I can say that they somehow find their own fun.

Even in Japan, people rely on the Internet to entertain women, but in another world without the Internet, and even more so with spirits as partners, I think it's an impossible task. Well, I guess that entertaining women is not a part of romance or dating, but I wonder how I can entertain them in the frontier.

"Yuta, don't worry about what If said. You're involved in a lot of things and as long as you live a normal life, interesting things will happen on their own."

I was puzzled, and Sylphy followed me. I wonder if she is following me, but I believe she is.

"...... that's what I mean, I'll try, but don't get your hopes up too much."

"Hmm, well, okay. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens. Next time, well, you can deal with me later, but you can take care of those two guys first.

If pointed in the direction of a little girl and a puppy who were tired of waiting. Well, the belles of the house are eager to play together, so we'd better finish the contract with them first.

I'd better make a pact with them first. Gina, come here."

He calls Gina next to him and speaks to the two spirits.

"Me and Gina next to me are going to make a contract with you guys, is that a problem?"

When I spoke to him, his bored expression brightened up. You're up! That's what it feels like. The little girl crossed her arms, nodded her head, and announced in a cute voice.

I'll take care of it.

The young girl's effort to stand tall makes me smile. She must have been influenced by If. If seems to have a big sisterly personality, and she seems to take good care of the little girl spirits. The puppy is wagging her tail with all her might, so it's safe to assume that she's willing to sign a contract with us.

"Well then, good to meet you. Me and Gina can pick a name, right?"

"Yeah, I want something cool." "Waffle."

This girl has yet to develop a personality. Maybe he's just trying his best to imitate IF. When she is interested in something else, her innocent expression peeks out. But a cool name. That's the first time I've ever gotten such a request.

"Well, I'll do my best to think of one. Gina, the presence in front of you is the spirit who will make a contract with you. She is a very cute puppy with beautiful jewel-red eyes. Her fur is light brown. Please think of a name for him.

I described the puppy's appearance in detail, and Gina began to seriously think of a name. I wish I could somehow convey the appearance better. Hmm? I can't draw, but is there anyone out there who can draw a portrait or a likeness? 

If the police can draw a picture of a criminal by asking the description of the criminal from the witnesses, they might be able to make a picture that looks somewhat similar, if not perfect. Well, is it OK if the picture is similar to some extent?

I notice the gaze of a young genie looking at me. Oh no, now is the time to think of a cool name. Fire,flame......fire,flame.................. hmmm, words for fire I'm surprised I can't think of any. The only fire god I know of is Prometheus,...... a male god.

Fire EMBU is not the same as the name. Oh, and for the sun, I think Corona or Flare would be good. You said it's a cool name, so maybe Flare. Corona is kind of cute and Flare sounds cooler.

"I know it's the name of a fiery phenomenon related to the sun, but how about the name Flare?"

"The sun! Uh, yeah, that's pretty good."

When I told her my name, the young genie smiled broadly and then tightened her expression as if she had been shocked. Maybe this girl will forget her iffy impersonation after working with Belle and the others. I think it's a shame, because she looks kind of cute standing tall.

"Well, your name is Flair. Nice to meet you."

"Yes!"

Flair responds cheerfully. That's a good answer. When I turn to Gina, she is still mumbling and thinking of a name. It's hard to think of a name, isn't it? The Shiba Inu is wagging his tail as he stares at Gina. Gina, who had been mumbling, suddenly turns to me and asks me about it. She looks slightly desperate.

"Master, what is the name of that puppy at your place? Sarah and the others used the name from the master's place, right? Please tell me."

You can tell that he is being cornered by the mix of honorifics, which he is not very good at.

"Well, Shiba Inu looks like a dog, doesn't it?"

"Thank you master! Okay, Shiva, I'm going to name her Shiva."

After thanking me, he turns to the puppy and tells it his name. I thought it was too simple, but Shiva spins around happily, as if he accepted the name. Gina looks at me puzzled by this move.

She is so happy to get the name Sheba," she says. I guess we have a contract.

Gina is looking at me with a blank stare. I had told her that nothing special would happen when the contract was completed, but she still seemed puzzled that nothing happened more than expected. Anyway, let me introduce you to Belle and Sara, who are itching to get behind me.

"Freya, Sheba, this is me and my apprentice here, and these are the spirits that we have contracted with. We're going to be together from now on, so please get along with us. Belle and the others will teach Freya and Shiva everything they need to know until they get used to this place.

When I call out to them, Belle and Fukuchan, who have been waiting for me, charge at Freya and Shiva. They form into a dumpling and introduce themselves. Sara and the others have missed the boat. We'll be able to talk more slowly once things settle down.

A little while later, the spirits are laughing and chatting. They became friends in an instant. And, as expected, Tulu is mooching on Sheba. I'm jealous.
