A lot of time had passed, of course, but for Anel to have a child?Somehow, it did not feel real at all. In my mind, Anel was a strong warrior, not a mother.The two carried completely different impressions."That child knows you too, Jinny. I always talked about you.""About me?""Because you were the bravest girl I knew.""...Anel."It felt like tremendous praise, making my heart swell with warmth.The look in her eyes as she gazed at me, and the power of the compass that…-

Good to See You, My Friend!"Three... no, five?""I wonder if they're Monsters,"Judging solely from the presences felt in the distance, it was hard to be sure whether they were people or Monsters moving in a pack.Even so, I could tell they weren't very far away.About 300 meters at most? If it weren't for the trees, they would have been visible from afar.Although I had put effort into training, sensing presences was usually the specialty of physical types.People with…

"I just can't understand it."How could this be happening?"I'm such a beautiful, wealthy, and exceptionally talented modern woman of this era, aren't I?""I'm capable and intelligent, I have a small but ardent group of followers, and my personality is... good."Even I had a shred of conscience, after all."Anyway, that's how it is. And yet! Just! Why!"And this conscientious me was on the verge of having a fit from stress.No, maybe I was already…

"...Haha, the kids really get along well, don't they?""So they do.""They're full of energy too, right?""He ate a Dragon Heart despite being a mere Spirit, so of course he ought to be lively."Adelaide, a Wyrm-class Dragon over five thousand years old, had said that while Magi had done countless foolish things up until now, the worst of them all was feeding a precious Dragon Heart to a Metal Spirit.She often gave me pointed looks over that incident, which I…

Of course, Lai was there. I carefully stepped toward him, and he crept stealthily toward me in a low crawl.Before the two of us could reach each other, however, my eyes met the boss monster's."Human.""Ah, hello?""To think a mere human dared to do such a thing.""First of all, I do have a name. It's Jin-i Crowell..."Putting on an awkward smile, I greeted her and attempted to introduce myself.If I could help it, I intended to live at least one second…

"Stop it, both of you! This is my final warning.""Jinny, but he started it!""Save the excuses. If you keep fighting, I won't take either of you."Magi, who had been gnawing and tugging on Lai's wolf ears, welled up with tears as if he might burst out crying at any second. He pattered right over and plastered himself against my leg.Having learned all too well that I had a weakness for cute things, Magi was totally committed to his act."No way! Take me…

"Why not! You put an Ogre in! Ogres are sentient beings too!"Lai's fifth body was an Ogre, and I had only included that because Magi had pestered me into it."Ugh, an Ogre is a Monster, isn't it? A Dwarf is a demi-human.""They're the same thing! You eat both of them anyway!""What a way of thinking, truly fitting of a Dragon...""Let's put a Dwarf in! Huh? Ogres and Dwarves are both living things anyway. Ogres have intelligence too! They have…

"My mom said this is super precious! She said even she only has two of them, you know?""Is it a magic stone?"Just looking at it, I could tell it was an incredible gem.Not only did it radiate a dense energy I had never felt in my entire life, but staring at it made me feel as if I were about to be sucked right inside.Before I could be sucked in, though, Magi carelessly tossed it into the cauldron."Here, Jinny, you take it.""...It doesn't look like just an ordinary…

What a simpleton. Even though he had been unhappy that I did not dote on him as much as Undine, a little flattery seemed to have made him forget the original subject entirely.It was an excuse I had just thrown together, yet Lai seemed to like it very much.I really loved that positive side of him.Truthfully, I avoided showing him off as much as possible because it would become a nuisance if others kept prying into what kind of Spirit he was or calling on me to use him, but all's well that ends well.For…

The Mana inside my body resonated with the incantation, filling the small space and beginning to hum.I felt the candle flames flare up all at once.Inside the room, with its windows shut tight, the air churned wildly on its own.Just then, an even more intense light poured from the already glowing Contract Circle. Startled, I squeezed my eyes shut.The Mana inside my body vanished rapidly, as if it were being yanked right out of me.A nagging stomachache washed over me. It felt as though someone were ripping…
