What is a Spirit?

Side: Yuki

As usual, Nargia, who loved blacksmithing, stared at her sword as she always did.

No, I've been spinning various weapons and armor to verify the Zlubble Empire's technical abilities...

In the end, the Japanese sword was seen by the military.

Even I know why.

From the side, a woman with a blade and a smile was able to do it.

It's an immediate report, isn't it?

"When I think about it..."

"So, is it okay if you come to ask me about the Spirit?"

“Yeah. There we go. And I want you to introduce me to some of the spirits I know. I want you to go to the Fountain of Our Lady with Queen Miyabi at a later date. It seems that there is a water spirit there.

And, I'll repeat what I said earlier.

Did you come to have a chat earlier? It was in a loose state.

I noticed that the shells of ice on the table had also been cleared.

If you're talking about work, set the scene.

It's basic, isn't it?

"Before I talk about the Spirit, I'm going to accompany you, but if you're from the same Rogali continent, I'm sure." Besides, we fairy tribes have deposited ourselves with Yuki-san, and we are letting him live on this land. We will not hesitate to cooperate to that extent. ”

"I would be grateful if you could say so." But should I stop on other continents? "

On the Ifu continent, the birth rate of subcontinents had fallen due to lack of magic power, and the concentration of magic power was scarce at a level that even slime could not exist.

As far as the Heiden region, due to the Great Barrier of Hylen, it has been confirmed that life forms of the type that make up and maintain their bodies with magic power will quickly dissolve the coagulation of magic power and disappear.

Of course, as a countermeasure, it can be activated by possessing a magic cylinder, and even if Zarghis studies it and does not have a magic cylinder, a technique has been developed to ease the Great Barrier of Hylen, but it is still not absolutely safe.

That's why the Fairies and Demons are hesitant to go to other continents, but it seems that Nargia has the same opinion while grasping the situation.

“That's right, I'd prefer to avoid it. Well, if that's the case, I won't have to hang out with you....."

"I won't force you." Well, don't worry, we haven't even talked about accompanying you to another continent yet. In the meantime, Zargis will come up with the perfect countermeasure. ”

"No, you can't do that, can you?" How many jobs do you think I have? ”

"That's right. Let's trust Mr. Zarghis." If I could go to another continent without worrying about it, I wouldn't have done that. "

"Mr. Nargia, please don't be a bad person." Hah, why don't you start talking about spirits? "

Zarghis, who had been messed with, quickly switched over to continue the conversation.

I see. Mr. Nargia, can we go back to the Spirit?

“Fine, but I can't tell you that much.”

For now, as far as I know, it's fine.

I'm sure you know more about spirits than I do.

So for now, it's important to listen.

But Nargia had a more difficult face than I thought...

"I see... well, should I just show you all this?"

When I crushed it, a small fluorescent light floated around me like a red, blue, yellow signal.

What's this?

Well, it's a spirit that can't communicate.

……

We were too surprised to hear anything.

"... erm, is it something that comes out so easily? What do you mean you can't communicate?"

"In the meantime, while holding up the agitation, I asked for a new explanation..."

"It's not the same as coming out. I don't see it, but it's true. Speaking of which, isn't Yuki able to acquire skills related to spirits with the power of Dungeon Core?"

Oh, I've got it, but I'm still doing my best to see the spirits that were in this Weed Forest.

Yes, I have acquired some of the skills that I think are necessary to negotiate, but I still didn't see them.

When I thought what was the cause, Nargia bowed her head...

"Hmm. Maybe it's a question of will?" These are unwilling, as I said earlier. It's just a magic chunk that drifts. That said, the power itself is not that big at this size. At most, if you fire a fireball or something, it will be extinguished. ”

That way, Nargia draws the red light into her hand and says something, which suddenly turns into a fireball and disappears immediately.

"In this way, it's just a mere existence." Would it be easy for Yuki and the others to understand if they thought that it was oxygen, carbon dioxide, and such a substance? ”

"Oh, I see. It's just one of the things that make up this world."

Somehow I understand what Mr. Nargia wants to say.

"Yes. Can I even speak of this little spirits' fragment?" When they come together, they take the initiative and start to make their own moves. Perhaps that's the spirit. "

“Just a moment.”

As Nargia said so much, Zarghis, who was listening to the conversation with her, sandwiched his mouth.

"In that way, spirits are magic clusters of attributes." Doesn't that mean you're no different from a monster? "

Sure enough, whether or not there was a monster was a magic stone, but it was also a monster whose magic power had coagulated.

In other words, considering only the history of its birth, it was no different from a monster.

That's right. I've never thought about the boundaries around here, but if I tell you that, of course, we'll be classified as monsters by the demons of the Zarghis with the Magic Stone.

"... That's true, but the Spirit doesn't see its existence any more than the Fairy Clan." Is that because there is no reality? "

"That's right. I just noticed that we are a fairy race and we don't have a nucleus." The composition of this body is mostly magical. Certainly this is very similar to the Spirit. Rather, is it the Fairy Clan that has stabilized its materialization? "

How dare you bend your neck and make a guess.

That's where I ask questions.

It's true that increasing the number of fairy companions was like increasing magic power and splitting up, right?

"Yes, we are basically a female-only race, which can be increased by intercourse, but more often than not, we divide because of our magic. Well, as for the principle, it means that the opponent receives magic power and accumulates it through intercourse, so it's no different from a split caused by magic power. However, the higher the opponent's magic power, the more efficient it is. I want you to do your best to increase your clan. If you're serious, you'll be born."

Well, Kieu is a doppel with me as the base, so the basic magic power is very good.

If you think about it, you can have a lot of kids, but now you two are relaxing because you want to enjoy your honeymoon.

"Hmm. So how do we increase the number of spirits?"

And then Zargis asks more questions.

I do understand the Fairy race breeding, but what about the spirits?

“No, I don't know about that. However, given the small number of spirits with the will, and the extremely small number of spirits, I don't think I feel the need for it."

"Sure, if you're breeding, you'll have that many." It is credible that you do not feel the significance of preserving the species. "

It is fairly abundant as an organism, but it is convincing when it is said that it is a collection of substances that are not organisms.

I realized that there was something in common with what was there.

Somehow, it feels similar to a mourning god or something like that.

That's right. There are similar verses to monsters and ghosts.

"... I'd say it's unscientific, but it actually exists." I definitely agree that it is similar. Because they are not capable of reproductive activity, they are only one generation. ”

I feel that it is similar to the place where it changes after a long time.

However, it is not absolute.

There is a sensory resemblance.

……

All three of them are silent.

What I've learned so far is that the Spirit is a material being.

And that's just Nargia's story.

It's not that I don't believe it, but there's no point in talking about anything here because I can't prove it.

"In the meantime, why don't you talk to the Forest Spirit in Weed?" He's relaxed here in Weed. ”

"That's true." Isn't it best to hear from him? Why hasn't Yuki done it? ”

"It's just a collection of information in advance." However, as for the forest spirits in Weed, the exception is that we can collect information at any time, so I wanted to hear about other spirits. "

"I see. The spirits are very different." That said, people, demons, and fairies are all alike. "

Certainly there is no such thing as the same.

Well, there are similarities between the races, but the Spirit ignores them, so I asked, but it seems that there is nothing in common in terms of appearance.

"But I've heard a few things from Nargia-san. If there is any speculation that it may be the same as the substance, we may want to look into it.”

"Oh, is that so?" He takes a piece of his body and analyzes it. "

"Zarghis is right. And you can see that to some extent."

“I understand the story, but can you give me a piece of your body so easily? For the Spirit, even a part of his hair is part of his power. I mean, even people who are not very close to you, you don't want to be asked to give me my hair, right?"

It's true, but this time I have more reasons to investigate, and I was wondering if you could convince me that Nargia would be present.

"Hmm. Okay." It's also for future spirits. It is not that there is no interaction. It's much better than suddenly negotiating with the water spirits in the fountain of the Saints. "

So we went to see the spirits of the forest.
