- A tingly cold, stiff feel.
".................. hmm?
Something, not like usual.
Even though it's usually fuzzier, and the warmer futon wraps Iruna around and tries to keep her awake...... today the uncomfortable cold reminds her of Iruna's blurry head.
I rub my eyes and lift my half body as I just flaunt my face for a moment.
That's how I got into my unfocused sleeping eyes - iron bars lined up at equal intervals and ceilings that I can't even stand up to.
I wake up in an instant.
And when I felt something uncomfortable and looked down at my neck, a collar was fitted to Iruna's neck, from which a single thick chain was stretched and connected to the wheel that was out of the floor. I can feel definite magic from the collar. Perhaps it's a magic guide.
- Iruna was imprisoned in a cage.
"Eh -"
I remember.
Where Iruna was playing, all of a sudden strange men appeared and hung something like liquid.
At that moment, Iruna loses consciousness... when she realizes, here it is.
Checking the area with the kyorokyoro, there are a number of the same cages that Iruna is kept in the surroundings with only dim lights, in which people of various races are put, such as the girl who gave birth to beastly ears from her head and the demonic girl with sheep-like horns. There are no men. They're all women.
It's just that they're a bunch of miscellaneous races - but the only thing they have in common is that they all have despair and giving up in their eyes so much that even young Iruna can tell?
And, at that time, half confused, but somehow I get a footstep for two echoing on the cuttlefish and stone floor to her ear, who was sending her gaze around to check the status quo.
"- We were twisted. I thought he was already dead."
"Really. I was about to be baited by demons in the back arena."
With that conversation, it was the two men who showed up from the back.
- I recognize you, I do.
These two show up in front of Iruna, who was playing - and certainly are among the (...) men who screwed up (...) Iruna's (...) hometown.
"Wake up, you fucking kid. Goddamn it, let me go through all the hassle, wow!!
"Ugh."
She gets punched in the face from across the cage, her young body blows easily and punches Gatsun and the back of her head on the iron bars behind her.
From severe blunt pain, twitching and tears seep in.
"Hey, don't. I know how it feels, but if I drop the value of the product, they will do it again. Either way, this kid is going to a perverted nobleman. So bear with me."
"Chip... hey kid, whoa listen. Temehe is going to be turned into a perverted aristocrat toy who loves the body of a kid, and he's going to be framed to see hell that it's better to die every day, right? What do you say, you feel great?
Niya, and a man with a physiological disgust.
Vikri and her body tremble at the words, and tears are about to come out of the back of her eyes apart from the pain...... but tie her mouth together, and she can admire it.
... It's okay.
- Because I have you.
What comes to mind is the appearance of one.
Ooh, you're so sweet, warm, someone I love. I got a little scared at first... but I'm not a scared person at all.
That guy would definitely come and help me.
That is the support of Iruna's heart today. Unlike before he killed his family, crushed his hometown, and had nothing but despair, there is hope.
- Besides, I always wish I could, but I can count on you when I'm in trouble.
Those two are so strong. The demons that have been heard to be scattered scary scared also get a little bit killed when those two are there.
So... it's okay.
"... chip, there's a fucking kid"
That Iruna's reaction wasn't funny, and when the man pounded his tongue, he called out to the other man next door, "Let's go," and left the spot.
Where they are no longer visible, Iruna rubs her eyes with gossip and makes her young head work diligently.
- But you can't just wait.
Iruna knows. No one could help but cry and wait for the sorrow that sprang up later.
I move myself and for the first time I get a chance to grab a helping hand.
Then what you can do now - it's buy you time.
I can't run away. I don't know where this place is, so I don't even know which way to run.
Rather than that, I'd rather buy some time to hide somewhere until two of her admirers come along.
Iruna, who so decides, whines bossly in a small voice to arouse her thoughtful feelings.
"Please, Mr. Earthspirits. Help me."
At that moment - me, and just a little brown light emerges.
That's a pale light as if it blends into darkness...... but it does exist there.
"Protecting the Spirit King".
That's what Iruna's got. Yuki hasn't even noticed the grate refi, the title.
Guardianship of the Spirit King: Guardianship by the Spirit King Ig-Drazyr. I can spot the good and evil of others and sense harmful intentions. Get the skill 'Spirit Magic'. This title and the accompanying skills cannot be seen by others.
- This was the means by which Iruna managed to live forever and protect herself from other demons until she was protected by Yuki, even though she was helped the last time she escaped and was attacked by demons in the demonic forest.
"Please, Mr. Earthspirits. I want you to unlock this collar and the cage."
When the pale light shows motion as if to snort, it is sucked into the collar of Huh and Iruna - and the moment I think about it, I hear a chatter, and a small, unkeyed sound of the collar.
In view of Iruna's escape before, I guess she also turned the collar into a magic guide so that she wouldn't escape next time - but that has nothing to do with the Spirit.
A spirit is magic itself. It eats magic and exists using magic as a mediator.
Therefore, if we let it be handled, we will not take a step back from any other organism.
When it comes to magic tools, it doesn't move without the magic that is the source of power. For the Spirit, sucking up all the magic of the Magic Instrument in an instant and emptying it, breaking it, etc. is before breakfast.
When the light moves to slide through the hollow, it then enters the key of the cage itself, and the key is unlocked without this one or another moment.
Having confirmed it, Iruna, thanking the earthly Spirit, next summons the Dark Spirit.
In addition to the four species of earth, water, wind and fire, the Spirit has a total of six species of light and darkness, each with a different field of magic specializing in.
Earthspirits are soil, minerals, metal-related - and darkness specializes in magic mixed with darkness, like deceiving other eyes.
... other people, I'd love to help you if I could... but I can't right now. If we let everyone go in the same way, we'll soon make a scene.
- Wait. Because I will never abandon you, either, as you helped me.
"... thank you, Mr. Dark Spirit"
Thus, no one noticed Iruna, who had disappeared into thin darkness due to the cooperation of the Dark Spirit.
