“I'm an animist? Are you really going to teach me? ”

“If you're going to teach me aesthetics, I'm just here to help you with your spirit contract. Necromancy is something the princess should learn with spirits. ”

“But is it okay for the famous animist, Prince Ligand, to... teach me such a thing? ”

“The elf was originally the one who gave spirituality to humans. The Elves must have taught it in a good way without any conditions. The more people learn, the better is the valuable academic study that leads to the will of nature. ”

Aesthetics is not like swords or magic.

This is no one's vision, nor can the wicked learn. That's why I'm willing to teach spirituality to anyone with spiritual affinity. I've only seen two of them so far.

Princess Serence stares at me dazed for a moment.

I tilted my head.

“What's the matter? ”

Then she smiled softly and replied.

“You seem like a very nice man, Mr Ligand. ”

“Ha, ha, ha. You're welcome."

Her smile was dazzling. I had to stammer for a moment when I was dumbfounded. Princess Serence, the best beauty in the Orient Kingdom. Had it not been for Sis and Julia by my side, maybe I would have really fallen for her.

All right, just calm down, me.

In case you forgot, you're a married man. You have two wives already?

After calming my mind, I took the spirit stone out of my heart.

I once bought three of them from the Magic Guild of Ledon, and even after I signed with the Salamander, I still had two of them with me. It was because holding a Spirit Stone helped increase Spirit Affinity.

“Well, let's start with that. ”

“Now?”

“Yes, is there something wrong? ”

“Oh, no. But is that possible here? ”

“Of course. Just watch. ”

I made a sand hoe and a rod by the gnome. You put the Spirit Stone in a sandal and grind it to powder with a stick, then pour water on the sandal using Undine. Stir it well and it becomes a sticky liquid made of water and Spirit Stone Powder.

Now all I have to do is draw the Spirit Contract Wizard.

But at that time, I felt the popularity of people about 200 meters behind me.

Who's there?

I focused my mind on the senses of gnome and undee.

One man was the king of Orion.

The other person was calm like a lake and also had enormous errors. That is, the error master. Probably Duke Britain.

Perfect timing.

I'm gonna give these two a good tour.

“Here comes another sleepless one. ”

“Yes?”

She did not conceal her curiosity, but soon after King Orion and Duke Britain appeared together, she burst into resilience.

“Abamamma?”

“Serence? What are you doing here at this hour? ”

“I couldn't sleep, so I went for a walk, and then I met Mr Ligand. ”

“What a coincidence. What are you doing, Bird of Ligand?" ”

The Orient King looked at me with a bowl and a stick and asked.

“I'm going to turn Princess Serence into a spirit. ”

“Excuse me?”

The Orient kings and Duke Britain were astonished.

“Your Highness, did you have a gift for animosity? ”

Duke Britain asks.

“Yes.”

The Orient King looked at Princess Ceres with his eyes widened.

“Whoa! I almost didn't know that much talent. ”

That's why it's so rare for a Spirit to see it in this world.

Also, the fact that they were spiritually friendly did not mean that they were all successful in the spirit contract. I may fail the contract because I lack the spiritual friendliness of my past life. Princess Serence's spiritual friendship seemed to have been spared to me.

“Then could Serence be like you? ”

The king of Orion is full of anticipation.

You sound just like Arthur and his wife. That's how parents feel.

“Haha, I don't know. But don't get your hopes up as you may fail. ”

“You could fail? ”

“Yes, if you don't have enough Spirit Affinity, you may fail. ”

“Well, that means you're not as talented as you are. ”

Well, I don't know.

It was not necessarily proportional to the amount of natural-born spiritual affinity and the possibility of a battle with animosity.

Look at me! Look at me!

My talents in animosity were merely mediocre. But now I've become such a senior spirit.

What is important is the sincerity and the heart to deal with the Spirit, not the talent.

“Then let's get started. ”

I painted a magic camp on the ground with water mixed with spirit stones. I had done it several times, so I was able to finish quickly.

Finally, I taught Princess Serence the spell.

“You have to remember exactly what I taught you. ”

“Got it.”

Princess Serence stands in front of the enchanted camp with a somewhat tense face.

I hope it works.

If I fail, they'll stare at me for no good reason. I'm not allied with you because you let me down! ’I'm not going to insist, hahaha.

Princess Serence finally casts her spell.

“O great spirit of the natural world, answer the call of my soul. ”

Paaaaaah!

Light pours out from the enchanted camp.

The flashing light soon faded. The light of disappointment on everyone's face was young. But I relaxed and kept watching.

Soon.

Pa!

A thin beam of light protrudes from the magic circle.

“Oh my!”

Princess Serence stares at the light with a surprised face.

A beam of light rushes back and forth. It was a free-flowing movement.

What the hell is that?

I had never signed a contract with Noum, Woundee or Salamander before.

The light revolves around Princess Serence. It was as if I was looking at her.

After a while, the long stretching light coalesces into a single round mass.

Twitch, twitch.

The lump of light slowly turns into a lump of clay.

Two bridges were made.

A small, round face and a large beak were made.

In addition, a pair of small wings protruded from his back.

What is that, a chicken? Duck or pheasant?

Soon it was a little green parrot. A strange parrot with half-opened eyes that even tasted a little off.

What's that?

The Spirit takes the form desired by the Spirit. So, deep down inside Princess Serence, there was a parrot that looked weird?

Princess Serence opened her eyes wide and burst into elasticity.

“Bic!"

- Vik, Vik.

The parrot repeats her like a fool.

“Vik?”

In my question, Princess Serence explained with a very happy face.

“This is the parrot I raised when I was a kid! Oh, my goodness. Vik is summoned as a spirit! ”

Princess Serence doesn't know what to do.

I advised an excited woman.

“We're not done yet. Ask for a contract. ”

Then Princess Serence hugged the green parrot.

“Vik, will you sign with me? Huh?”

- A contract, a contract! We have a deal!

“Yikes! Yay! ”

She hugs the parrot and jumps like a child.

At that moment, the magic circle disappears, and the parrot and her body glow.

It was a moment when the spirits of the spirit and the spirit became one. Perhaps she will see the will of nature for a moment.

“Ah…! ”

As expected, she peered briefly at Mother Nature's will in the process of spiritual connection and began to shed tears.

“What happened to that? ”

The Orient King asked me. I briefly explained the will of Mother Nature.

That's how the spirit contract ended.

Princess Serence, who wiped her tears, liked hugging the parrot Big and rubbing her face.

But what kind of spirit is that?

Princess Serence said.

“Vik is a parrot I raised as a child. I was lonely when I was a child because I was a princess and I didn't have any friends. I used to love teaching horses, and I cried so hard when I died at the end of my life. ”

“Wow, you really look like that parrot back then. ”

The duck king recognized the parrot as well.

I knew it.

The summoned spirit chose the shape of a parrot in the memory of Princess Serence.

“Hey, that's great. May I touch it, too? ”

“Of course.”

I approached the parrot.

Not cute at all, of course, but I wanted to know what kind of spirit it was.

Mm-hmm?

But somehow I feel like the parrot is staring at me. Well, maybe it's just the mood.

“Hello?"

It was the moment I reached for the parrot's head.

- Aah!

The parrot suddenly opened his beak at me. Then a stream of strong wind blew and shook my body.

“Woo!”

I fell backwards.

Fortunately, Woundee was controlling the fluid in her body, so she was able to rebalance herself without crushing her butt.

What, what is this?

The parrot yelled at me with a furious face.

Marry me! Cheater!

“ ……?! ”

Neither Princess Serence nor King Orion nor Duke Britain looked so baffled.

Come on, you shitty parrot!
