Taming Master

- Representative of the Spirit King…… what do you think is the most important value of Mother Nature?

“Yes?”

- First, blue beauty.

“ ……? ”

- Two, overwhelming vitality.

“Was it a... ceremony? ”

- Three, peace and relaxation.

“Well……. ”

- The correct answer does not exist. All of the values I've mentioned are obviously important values of Mother Nature.

“Th-the rum? ”

- But if you choose your thoughts honestly, that's enough.

Ian is troubled.

I was thinking of some kind of battle or some kind of time attack mission because it was a spiritual test.

What appeared to him now was a multiple-choice problem that had not been solved since high school.

What's a bit unusual is the degree to which the ‘right answer’ does not exist.

‘There is no right answer, but there must be a wrong answer……. ’

Ian quickly begins to roll his head.

If the answer is not given, there is only one thing he must think about.

‘If you give me the answer you like about that NPC, that's the right answer. ’

It's a multiple choice problem, but I think we should approach it with an idea of increasing NPC and intimacy.

Instead of answering, Ian decided to take her seriously.

The answer to this question was, of course, not.

Even an AI of an NPC wouldn't be that simple.

Just solve one question that arose while talking to her, and at the same time address her psychological state (?).

‘If we talk about something, we'll find the answer. ’

But not long after I started talking to Netra, Ian's mind became even more confused.

The conversation with her started getting more and more mountainous.

“Netra. ”

- Go ahead, Agent.

“Did God not know that spiritual systems were... dangerous until I came here?" ”

- Yeah, that's right.

“H-are you sure? ”

- Why do you think I knew that for sure?

“Of course, you are the Spirit God who governs the Spirit System.... ”

Ian's pupils began to shake.

"What's this? ’

This type of NPC has never been seen before by even Ian.

But apart from that, her words continued.

- God cannot be directly involved in what happens in the Dimensional Realm.

“But?”

- Even if I knew in advance, it wouldn't make a difference.

“ ……? ”

- That's not my job.

“Queek?”

Ian looked ridiculous.

"What the hell is God doing? ’

Of course, Ian had already known that God could not be involved in the dimensional world.

It's a story I've heard many times from NPCs as I lead the content of the matchmaking.

But the five gods that ruled the human world at least had this attitude (?).

They tried to defend the dimensional system somehow, even through representatives, if they couldn't do it themselves.

That was the context of all the quests for users.

‘It's an immersive concept. ’

Compared to the gods of the terrestrial world, the nets in front of us looked almost organic.

That is why Ian did not even know it.

Really pure (? Out of curiosity.

“So what's Netra's job? ”

- My job...?

“Yes. If the spirit crisis had nothing to do with Netra's work...... I was wondering what Netra was up to. ”

Little by little, I began to think of Netra's expressionless face as‘ emotion. '

And that feeling in Ian's eyes was definitely of a similar nature to "annoying."

- That's not my job, yes, but it's not my job. No, we just got involved.

“ ……? ”

- You came to me like this, and you gave me a job to do.

“What is that…? ”

After a few moments, Netra opens her mouth again.

- It's my job……… to define it simply.

“ ……? ”

- All complaints in the spirit system through prayer or cult.

“Me, a complaint? ”

- Listening to them or solving them...?

“Huff.”

- Well, your complaints about allowing me to use the power of the source, the little concerns of the spirits you just prayed to me... … it's my job to listen to these things.

“You... have a lot of work to do. ”

- Yeah, a lot.

“ ……. ”

- So I need you to answer my question quickly.

And with Netra's slightly sharpened tone, Ian has no choice but to flinch.

‘It's like……. ’

It's hard to make out exactly, but I feel like I need to answer quickly and get out of the way!

The language itself was friendly, but Ian felt this uncomfortable feeling like he was on a spike.

‘I feel like I'm in the same office……. ’

About a year ago, I went to the same office to sign a new apartment with Harin.

It seemed to have felt exactly this way.

And when he came to this point, Ian began to see little by little the invisible parts of Netra's appearance.

‘That subtle frown. All eyes are annoying... ’

Thanks to you, Ian was able to clearly see what she wanted.

‘Yes, we can see what the answer is. ’

Ian's mouth was then slowly pulled back off again.

His voice was as sure as ever.

“Very well, Netra. Sorry for the delay. ”

- Well, I'm sorry...

“Let me…… answer the first question. ”

- All right.

“I think nature's most important value is peace and relaxation. ”

And after hearing Ian's answer, Netra's face began to spread with a subtle, faint smile.

-Peace and relaxation…… are really important values. All right, let's ask the next question.

With a slightly softer tone, Netra opens her mouth again.

- Question two.

“I'll listen.”

- Representative of the Spirit King…… What do you think is the most ideal relationship between a Spirit and a Necromancer?

“Is there another option? ”

- Absolutely.

Netra takes a few moments to speak slowly.

First, interracial relationships.

- Two, best friend.

- Three, parents and children.

Ian, who heard all the options, was momentarily troubled.

‘Hmmm, the most common answer seems to be option two……. ’

It was easier to choose the answer than the first question, but knowing Netra's propensity, I didn't like any of the choices.

So Ian came up with a slightly wrong idea.

‘If the answer is not given anyway.... ’

Netra's approach to questions was entirely different.

“Netra. ”

- Go ahead.

“Do I really have to choose between those options? ”

- Why do you ask?

Ian swallowed a dry drink and opened his mouth again with a serious expression.

“Because I don't think about those three options. ”

- Yes……?

“Can I tell you what I think? ”

- Ha, let's hear it.

This time, Netra seemed confused and confused.

Towards her, Ian carefully speaks out.

“An ideal relationship between an animist and an animist…… It is the relationship between an employee and an employer. ”

- ……!

“A relationship where you pay exactly what you pay for and only work as much as you get paid. ”

- Well, yes!

“It's like this. ”

- ……?

“My summoner works at exactly 50 calories per meatball. ”

Ian noticed a lot of people who were standing still next to him, and a lot of people who were quite noticeable immediately nodded and responded to Ian's words.

“Boom, boom! Yes!”

“This is the ideal relationship between a spirit and an animist. ”

After Ian's words, a moment of silence passed between him and Netra.

But Ian knew for sure.

It worked!

Now, Netra's pupils are obviously wiggling thinly.

Of course, a false answer (?) seemed a little uncomfortable, but that's what you need to do as a reward.

Ian waits for Netra's words with a confident expression, and momentarily, her voice resumes.

- This…… is definitely a new approach to the animist's relationship theory.

“Is that so?”

- But it's so ideal.

“Of course.”

Your answer. I'll take it.

And at the same time.

Ian's anticipated system message flashed before his eyes.

- Tyring!

- I'm satisfied with your answers, Spirit God Netra.

- Increase Amity with Spirit God ‘Netra’ by 2.

Then Netra's question follows again.

- Now I would like to ask you one last question to confirm your qualifications……

“Go ahead, Netra. ”

Ian and Netra's gaze meets in the air.

And in Netra's eyes, Ian is now sure of warmth.).

- Representative of the Spirit King…… what do you think a Spirit Master should not ask a Spirit?

When Ian hears Netra's question, he quickly rolls his head again, pretending to wait for her choice.

And while he was thinking, Netra began to talk about three options again.

- First, harming nature.

- Two, peacekeeping.

But what she said, it couldn't last forever.

- Number three...

Before Netra even mentioned her third choice.

Ian is perfect.) I gave the answer.

“Overtime.”

- ……?

“A spiritualist should never ask a spirit to do anything. It's overtime. ”

- That……!

“Because that's what harms nature, but it's also what harms peace. ”

Netra, who heard Ian's last answer, loses her word for a moment.

All these years I've been forced to defend the same position, but this ideal complaint (?) was the first time.

- Ian. You've reached the truth...

A netra that can't speak, whether it's caused by emotion.

Instead of her words, a new system message appeared in Ian's eyes.

- Tyring!

- In your answer, the Spirit God Netra is pleased.

- Additional 10 Amity with Spirit God ‘Netra’.

- Qualified!

- You have successfully passed the test of the Spirit God Netra!

Then the fire that had been placed on the altar of the spirit and the source of the earth began to be wrapped in white light again.
